Wives and Silly Women: Which one are you?

I have been reading in the book of Samuel and also in the book of Judges about 2 women. The Lord showed me vividly that there are 2 women, and we know that there is no in between because that would mean that we are lukewarm. So I'm going to (with the help of the Lord) break down these 2 women: Are you a wife? a wife is defined as: A woman joined to another person in marriage; a female spouse. So I asked the Lord how can I speak on the topic of a wife If I've never been one... Thats when He took me to the book of Samuel, and I began to read about Hannah. Hannah is a wife who was honored by her husband... so much so that in the bible it said that He adored her. What makes me love Hannah so much is that she had an issue, Hannah's womb was closed. She was so tired of being called names, and being laughed at that she had stopped eating, but never once did it say she lashed out at her husband or cursed God. No! Hannah took this as an opportunity to go before the Lord... she wept and prayed so hard that Eli thought she was drunk. Now before this she had promised the Lord that if she was given a son that she would give him back to the Lord. After praying she got up, Eli blessed her, and that morning they got up an worshiped. The story goes on to say that God honored her request, and she was given a son. I said Lord how can I be a wife now.. I don't have a husband. He said I am your husband... honor me, submit to me, and bring all of your cares to me. A wife prays. She does not nag or dwell on an issue. She takes it before the Lord. She honors God by presenting her body as a sacrifice. All of her motives are good. For a more in depth look at a wife lets go to Proverbs 31, The bible says, "Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. (Proverbs 31:10) Some versions even say a "A wife of noble character who can find." It even says she does him good and not evil. I could go on an on about a wife, but I'll say this if prayer and worship are beyond you then being a wife is beneath you because even in singleness this should be our goal. We should be seeking to glorify God in all areas of our lives. With or without a husband. Are you a silly woman? a silly woman is defined as: a woman having or showing a lack of common sense or judgment; absurd and foolish." So I can more so relate to a silly woman because well... I was one. The Lord took me to the book of Judges, and I studied Delilah. Delilah was the epitome of a silly woman. She was driven by money, greed, and selfish desires. In the bible, she was approached by the Philistines, to discover the secret of Samson's strength. They offered her money to betray him, and she made it her duty to get the secret. I'm sure she nagged, pleaded, and conned until he finally gave in. So what does the Lord want us to know about a silly woman. He said it all boils down to the curse in the garden of Eden...if you go to Genesis it says that, "Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you." (Genesis 3:16) The silly woman always has to be in control, nagging... her desire is to seduce a man into getting things from him. It could be money, sex, or even just to fulfill the desire to be married. This woman has no real Godly intentions. Ladies, let this be your wake up call to check your motives... If your desire for marriage is anything besides glorifying God you've turned it into an Idol, and you must be healed/ delivered. Check your motives in all areas... whether it be your make up or even the way you dress. The bible says that "charm is deceitful." Even pictures can be enticing if posted in the wrong spirit. Are you attempting to lure men or glorify God. To get a closer look at silly women check out 2 Timothy, It says that she is gullible, and "laden with lust." I know this post is extra long, and there maybe typos. lol But I am pleading with you.. ask God to search your heart. Allow Him to show you the areas in which you need to work on. I don't post for my health. My desire is to see women healed and whole. I had a vision of women linked together in chains, and I believe that was because there are so many women out there who can't worship or serve God because they are in bondage. I even had a married woman reach out to me. If you can relate to the silly woman please take it to the Lord, cry out to Him, and I promise He will send in His informants to help guide you to deliverance. He did it for me, He'll do it for you. I love you all. Be blessed... Taira :)
