How to Find a Husband: a Guide for Christian Women
This may be the old fashioned way to go about doing things, but women were never meant to search for their mates. In fact, ladies, we were to be found by the men that God created us for. Remember, the whole spill about God taking a rib from Adam's side and creating Eve? No, ribs weren't taken from our husband's side, but it's the same idea. Not so sure about that? Check the verses below and notice the key words in both.
Proverbs 18:22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.
Proverbs 31:10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
These verses are worth a lot more than a grain of salt. It's not a woman's job to do the looking. A woman seldom finds her soul-mate on a late night trip to the bar or by scouting the clubs all weekend. Besides, is that really where you want to find the man you'll spend the rest of your life with?
I'm sure you've probably heard the lame excuse many single Christian women offer-- "I don't need a man because Jesus is my man". Well ladies, I hate to break it to you like this, but that is crap! We were created by God to be a gifts to men-- that is, the men who walk this earth each day.
So exactly what should you do?
1. Pray -- If you can believe God for your job, finances, and health, you can belief God for your husband. Pray that the man you were created for will find you!
2. Surround yourself -- That is, with other single Christians. Join a single's ministry at a local church, or, start your own. Trust that you are not alone and find friends that will support you while you wait.
3. Be patient -- Don't try to fix it yourself. You don't want to end up with the wrong man. If you and the man you find are unequally yoked, you will suffer. Let God work and you'll know that when you've met the man you were created for.
4. Be yourself -- You don't want to scare him away. Just be true to yourself. He'll love you for who you are.
5. Get ready -- Be prepared to share your life with someone. In other words, get your world in order. Continue working to reach your personal goals before there are shared goals to add to the list.
Wait on the Lord! I did and my man found me!

Post a Commenti love Jesus very much,.
To all women if you read the bible then you will no what the words say.God say that he put Adam to sleep so he could take part of his ribs to make a women out of .A women is place here to be a wife to a man.God call it a companion.But he really mean a wife.He also say be fruitful and multiple.Because of the sins of the world that is why some people dont want to get marry.And the creator dont want us marrying anyone!That is why you should seek his face and words first and you will no if that person is a true mate for you from God !!!
God plan for a women to be a good praying wife to and with her husband and both of them to be come one unite in his eyes sight.A women is to take care of the family and home why the husband honor god by making aliving for his family and providing a Holy ,Loving Uncondition ,Protected, Honest home for his family. And building up the kingdom of God! Also take care the land that he has provide to his people !!!
We are here for a reason and not a sea
I need a husband,because the word of God say that it not good for man(women to be alone, that is why a want a husband
Hi everyone, as a man, may I join your conversation? Maybe you do or do not know but some men are finding it very difficult to find a sister with whom they can spend the rest of their lives in harmony also...yes, within the Church.
The loneliness and frustration we can and do feel can be overwhelming sometimes. It is not all about sex, but companionship: all of the beautiful elements that go into quality companionship. companionship. My life is constant ball of Kingdom-building activity and fellowship with God, but that does not substitute for the want of substantive female companionship.
I can see why some women become bitter as the years go by and they are still without a husband. The same thing exists on the other side of the fence: but believe me -- God is not non-existent and marriage the way He meant it to be is not a fairytale. Sometimes I console myself by thinking that maybe in the Millennium it will happen. Yet I still have hope. Perhaps His compatible born-again and Spiri
I agree with this somewhat - but I am getting older and older and Christian men just aren't asking me to marry them. I've had four proposals from non-Christians (turned down of course!). I always get chased by true (mostly Reformed) Christian men, become their girlfriends, fall in love with them - and a year, year and half, two years later they turn around and say they don't want marriage. Guess they just wanted the kudos of having a blonde on their arm for a while?
I'm finding it hard to be patient and while I trust God the emotional pain is so hard. All my christian friends are now married and having babies. I am just 'having' books - christian books, cook books, books on personal ethics. It's a great ministry but they don't hug you. :(
Still, I've stopped with the internet dating thing. It only costs money to get a broken heart.
I do agree that the article is kind of old fashion, and I too do not want to get married but I also do understand that if God has a plan for me to marry, then I will when he reveals to me who my future husband will be. But as for now I live my life for God alone because I am single and because God is my first and highest love. Women are not made for man, women are made for God.
Pam,
Have you ever considered that your main focus should be to follow God's will. You should not let finding a mate to take precedent over what God has planned for you. Maybe there are some things that you need to work w/in yourself.
Kam,
I'm not quite sure what it is that you are trying to say. I am sorry that you have had such a bad experience w/ other Christians. All I can say is that you should seek God wholeheartedly and He reveal himself to you. Patience is the key. One of our flaws as humans is that we want everything now instead of in due time.
I'm annoyed. I've been doing everything the article said for the last 30 years, and I still don't have a husband. God doesn't exist. It's all one huge fairy tale.
no man will find me
im never getting married
not because i dont want to
but marriage should not be based on trusting god, and one should be penalized because they dont trust god
i dont trust god becuase i am told to do
i dont have consisten experience to where i can
right now in my life
i dont trust god
another reason
opinionated christians who dont know
they do harm and no good
and yeah to blinded to see it
Kat I agree with you somewhat. The author has obviously made some assumptions that are based upon old thoughts (that women are made for men). But the more correct view is that women were made to complete the picture of creation. Put another way, the picture of creation was incomplete without the woman just as it would have been complete without the man had God created the woman first. But the combining of the man and the woman is ultimately about the completion and accomplishment of God's work which at its very basic is to exercise dominion (note I did not say tyranny) as demonstrated by God to us and his creation, subdue the earth (again following God's example of what that means because of love), and replenish it. Furthermore, the Bible says that God said "it is not Good that the man should be along." It does not say "a man.' That use of "the" rather than "a" makes a difference in how that verse is to be read. It means that at that time and within that context it was not good that th
