Book excerpt: How Women Can Live with Boldness and Confidence Every Day Every woman knows it's easy to lose sight of the heavenly power of God at work in our lives during times of hardship, exhaustion, stress, and change. But no matter the situation--whether it's our health, marriage, finances, family, or vocation--God has equipped all women with the power and influence to live freely and confidently. With warmth and a welcoming style, speaker and award-winning writer LaTan Roland Murphy illuminates eleven courageous women in the Bible and shows how each was uniquely positioned for success because of her courageous choices. From Deborah to Jael to Mary, Murphy shows that these women chose to draw near to God; as a result, they were equipped with power for the supernatural ability to live courageous lives despite often undesirable circumstances. These stories will inspire women of all ages to trust God, minister to others, and live confidently and courageously no matter the season of life or what lies ahead.

Download or read book Women of Faith and Courage written by Mary Walker and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace..." (I Peter 4:10). The women whose stories are in these pages display many exceptional traits. They are wise, dependable, thrifty, energetic, and unselfish. They are good wives, mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends. Some will stand out in one or more of these spheres, while others will shine in different areas. But there is one thing they all have in common: they were all very courageous. How do these women show their courage? Many will exhibit grace under fire. They have a strong presence of mind. They are able to act decisively because they are sure of their convictions. A courageous woman can say, "I'm sorry," and mean it. She is gracious. Courageous women depend on God. They trust Him and accept His will in their lives. They are willing to accept what God gives them in their lives. When they perceive His will, they put their all into the tasks before them. Brave women are willing to take a stand for what they believe. They will draw a line in the sand and not cross it. Unjust powers, no matter how fearsome, will not deter them from their righteous goals. Courageous women also love others. They are unselfish. They put the needs of others ahead of their own. Their confidence in God's call in their lives is high enough to free them to be able to act independently. Women of courage will share Christ's gospel of peace, forgiveness, joy, and love with others. We live in uncertain times. Only the courageous woman will get through the perils holding her head up high. In these stories, we have examples before us of how a victorious life can be lived.

Download or read book The Scarlet Cord written by Lindsay Hardin Freeman and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scarlet Cord: Conversations With God s Chosen Women tells the story of biblical women in a new way, drawing the reader further down her spiritual path and closer to Christ. And here is why: for too long, women in the Bible have been demonized, sanctified or simply misunderstood, leaving highly stereotyped figures in their wake. As a result, passionate, faithful and bright individuals, from Eve to Ruth to Mary Magdalene, have lost meaning for many contemporary Christians and non-Christians alike. Here, through storytelling and artwork, twelve compelling women of the Bible invite readers to step further into the sacred circle of God s people, deepening their faith and joy in all of creation. That circle offers more than peace. It offers health, healing, and the knowledge that other women have also trod broken and jagged paths in their search for wholeness. By taking this step, the reader will discover that challenges experienced by biblical women are not so different from her own, including infertility, warfare, hunger, old age, grief and sexual conflict.

Each reading begins with a passage of Scripture, then dives into a woman’s story with detail and depth that illustrates exactly how much she was loved and cared for by God. It ends with an encouragement to apply the day’s lesson in your own life and a personal prayer that gets right to the heart of the matter and the heart of God. Prepare to be inspired and moved closer to the God who gives you strength and courage by spending time with some incredible women in His Word.

Download or read book Sermons Courageous Women In the Bible written by Otis Clayton and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2024-01-16 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book of sermons about several courageous women in the Bible, which I have identified from the Old and New Testament scriptures. I developed or created these sermons because of the bold example from my Mother, Elizabeth Murphy-Clayton. As a single parent, this courageous woman raised nine children: five sons and four daughters. Her five sons all served honorably in the United States Armed Forces. Furthermore, these sermons about female biblical characters reflect my mother’s personality. While I created sermons about Deborah, Esther, Rahab, Ruth, and Hannah, as are five courageous women of the Old Testament, I also developed five homilies about five women in the New Testament. These brave women are (1) Mary, the Mother of Jesus; (2) Mary Magdalene; (3) Mary of Bethany; (4) Priscilla; and (5) Lydia in the New Testament. These sermons are essentially a male perspective about women who continue to serve as valuable and impeccable role models for how women today, especially African American women, can serve as courageous examples to achieve excellence in various fields of endeavor. The content provided here falls primarily into homiletic womanist studies, with some relevance to African-American philosophy, religion, cultural studies, etc.
