On May 10th, 2015 this country will celebrate our mothers. How do you see your mother? Do you see her as a strong Christian woman? What can you give your mother to show her the honor that she deserves? Are you a woman who looks to the Bible, God’s authority, for how to live your life? Below are lessons that are centered around being a Christian Woman, Wife, Mother. If you are striving to be a Godly woman, wife and mother God’s word is the best book for how to live a life that is worthy of the honor you deserve.
God’s Ideal Woman.
If you were to ask a number of people on the street to describe “the ideal woman,” you would get an equal number of answers depending on whether the person you ask is a man or a woman. Some would focus upon her physical beauty. Others would list her academic accomplishments and her intellect as being of supreme importance. Still others might speak of her wit, humor and love of life. Then there would be those who would combine a number of those listed above.
But how does God describe “the ideal woman?” In Proverbs 31:10-31 we are given His description of such a woman. God is looking for a few good women who will follow Him and become women of virtue. The power you have to influence those around you is more than you may ever know.
Women of Respect.
Submission is not a word we like to hear much about these days. Perhaps it is because we hear too much about those who abuse the authority given to them. But God has a purpose in our homes, one that glorifies Him, builds strong marriages and faithful children. It is this that we seek to explore in this lesson.
Satan seeks to destroy the home. Sometimes he attacks the husband and at other times he attacks the wife. When he attacks the wife, he convinces her that she is just as good as her husband and that she does not need to submit to anyone. To those who are women of God, I encourage you to stand against Satan’s attacks by being women worthy of respect.
Mothers, Keepers At Home.
Today, we live in the era of the “liberated woman” and motherhood does not seem to be an agreed upon issue by society in general any more. Rearing the next generation is a coveted task despite the unprecedented attacks on motherhood. Motherhood is both a demanding and a rewarding profession.
What Should You Give Your Mother?
What should we give our mothers? We should give our mothers obedience, respect, affection, wisdom, righteousness and care.

Where are you in your life at this moment in time? Are you a Christian? Does “the word of Christ richly dwell within you?” (Colossians 3:16). Does God’s Spirit dwell within you? (Romans 8:9) Are you living a life that honors Him? Are you a part of the army of God? He calls each of us to a life that is abundant and eternal. Will you come to Him in obedient faith, turning from the sin in your life, confessing Christ as your Lord and Savior, and being buried with Him in baptism, so that your sins may be washed away today?

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations . . .” (Matthew 28:19a). Jesus told the eleven apostles to “make disciples of all nations.” The apostles mission and ours as well is one with a worldwide scope. Our goal is to make all the world His disciples. We seek to win all people to Christ. No one is to be excluded. Are you a disciple of Jesus Christ? You are if you have been baptized “in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19) and are now seeking to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). However, if you haven’t yet come to Christ in obedient faith, why not do so today?
