Unique Qualities Of A Holy Woman: The Case Of Mary (Part 1)
Text: Luke 1:26-27
Monday 3rd February
Key verse: And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou has found favor with God Luke 1:30.
The text shows angelic visitation to a young virgin called Mary, who kept herself in purity and holiness thereby, attracting the favor of God. Mary the mother of Jesus possessed some qualities which all women desirous of heaven should emulate. She was holy, pure, clean and maintained holiness in heart and life, as revealed by scriptural accounts on her before the angelic visitation.
She was a woman of faith in God. The Lord has called you to be a believer and so, believe what God tells you like Mary. Are there women of faith after the pattern of Mary? Are there women that believe the Lord shall perform the thing they are praying for? If you do, there shall be a performance. (Mark 9:33). Apart from being a woman of faith, Mary was a humble woman of God. As a woman chosen by the LORD, she was really worthy to work with the Lord, because she was of a humble and contrite spirit. Is that your case? Are you of a humble and contrite spirit? May we seek to be like Mary.
Mary was submissive to suffering in the will of God. Suffering was attached to being the mother of Jesus. She was not full of murmuring and complaints; despite the challenges she went through. But little things make most people especially women to complain. A little lack at home makes you weary your husband with murmurings. She was a loving and caring mother and had love in her heart. If you came across Mary then, you would see the beauty of care, love, and gentleness. I want you to see this caring mother, concerned, yet under control. Mary had her emotions and tongue under control. Is this your case?
Thought For The Day: God can make you unique if you submit to him.
Song For The Day: Make me holy, Jesus make me holy…
