What the Bible 📖 says about your tear, A Barren, Great, Generous and Content Woman‼️Part 1

By Pastor and Mrs Chifamba

1 Thessalonians 5:18

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

A WOMAN DOES NO NECESSARILY NEED TO HAVE CHILDREN TO BE HAPPY, PRODUCTIVE AND GREAT IN SOCIETY. IF ONE ACCEPTS GOD’S WILL AND FOCUSES ON BLESSING OTHERS THEY WILL BE CONTENT AND HAPPY IRREGARDLESS OF THEIR CIRCUMSTANCES IN LIFE.

Man can shape circumstances, but circumstances should not be allowed to shape the man. We should seize upon circumstances as instruments by which to work. We are to master them, but should not permit them to master us. – {Ministry of Healing p. 500.2}

1 Timothy 6:6-8

But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

2 Kings 4:8-10

And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread. 9And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually. 10Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.

THIS WOMAN WAS GREAT BUT DID NOT DESPISE HER HUSBAND‼️ SHE GAVE HER HUSBAND HIS PLACE. THERE IS CONFUSION IN THE WORLD TODAY BECAUSE OF SOMEONE WOMEN WHO EQUATE GREATNESS WITH UNDERMINING THE BIBLICAL ROLES OF THEIR HUSBANDS. THE BUSINESS WOMAN OF PROVERBS 31 ALSO GIVES HER HUSBAND HIS PLACE AND GETS PRAISE FROM GOD, HUSBAND, CHILDREN AND COMMUNITY.

Proverbs 31:26-31

She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. 27She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. 28Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. 29Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. 30Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. 31Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

2 Kings 4:11-17

And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there. 12And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him. 13And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people. 14And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old. 15And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door. 16And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid. 17And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.

GOD WILL ALWAYS REWARD GENEROSITY

Proverbs‬ ‭19:17‬ ‭ESV‬

“Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deed.”

Psalm 41:1-3

Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble. 2The LORD will preserve…

Proverbs 11:24-25

There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. 25The liberal soul s
