Virtuous Women's Bible Study Course:
Discover Your True Purpose in God
Strength and dignity are her clothing, and her position is strong and secure ~ Proverb 31:25 (AMP)
Ever feel caught between God's Word and the women's movement. This Christian Women's Bible Study Course will show you that they are not as separate as you may think.
God created woman with a strength all her own. Unfortunately, most women in our society today have been so busy trying to be men, that they have totally missed out on the inherent power of being ladies.
These online women's Bible studies will be your Christian help as you search for the strength and beauty that God has hidden inside of you.
As Christian women, we can sometimes get caught up in getting things accomplished. But, I would suggest that you take your time going through each women's Bible lesson.
When you slow down, it allows God to use His Word to show you who you were really created to be. Not only as a woman, but as His woman.
Why God Made Women
You are God’s masterpiece. Discover what God really called you in the Garden, and what that says about your true destiny.
The Creation of Woman -
Why Did God Bother?
It is not good (sufficient, satisfactory) that the man should be alone. ~ Genesis 2:18
What was God's real plan for the creation of woman? Couldn’t we have all just been men?
I don’t know if you can relate, but these are questions that often crossed my mind in years past.
In many societies across the world, it often seems like women get the short end of the proverbial stick. Even in Jesus' time, there was a Jewish prayer where men praised God that they were not a gentile, a dog, or a woman!
But, what was God's original plan? Why did He create us in the first place?
Why Did God Make You a Woman?
To Fix a Serious Problem
Now the Lord God said,
It is not good (sufficient, satisfactory) that the man should be alone;
I will make him a helper meet
(suitable, adapted, complementary) for him.
- Genesis 2:18 (Amplified)
Of course, I am NOT implying that Christian Single women have no place in God's plan. All women have a vital purpose as you will discover more and more throughout this course. But to understand our true intent, we must look at where the first thought of women appeared.
It is amazing to think that, in the entire story of creation, this is the only time that God says "It is not good."
creation of woman rocks and streamAnd the earth
brought forth grass,
and herb yielding seed
... and God saw that
it was good.-Genesis 1:12
And God made two great lights;
the greater light
to rule the day,
and the lesser light
to rule the night...
and God saw that
it was good. - Genesis 1:16-18
Genesis continues on describing the beauty and wonder of God calling all creation into being.
And, as they say, "it was all good!"
But, all of a sudden, there was trouble in paradise!
Something was not good.
It is not good (sufficient, satisfactory)
that the man should be alone.
- Genesis 2:18
Enters you - Woman. The answer to the problem.
Women's Bible Study Course
Lesson 1: The Creation of Woman
Reflection Questions
1. How does it feel to know that you were God's answer to His problem?
2. Are there times in your life when you have felt like being a woman was more of a problem than an answer? Why or why not?
But, why was it not good for man to be alone? And couldn't other men have kept Adam company? And what in the world is a help meet anyways? Find out the answer to these questions and more in Lesson 2.
