Are you a WoV?

To wow the world as a WoW (Woman of Worth), you need to first be a WoV (after all, “V” comes before “W”).

The four things which “WoV” could stand for are interWoVen:

1. “Woman of Virtue” – Google defines “virtuous” as “behavior showing high moral standards.”
   Our go-to Bible verse when we talk about a Virtuous Woman is Proverbs 31:10: “An excellent woman [one who is spiritual, capable, intelligent, and virtuous], who is he who can find her? Her value is more precious than jewels and her worth is far above rubies or pearls.” (AMP, italics mine)
   Essentially, being a Woman of Virtue is not an end in itself…just a means to an end. Using different words, (to make it as easy as ABC for me), we must be Able, have good Behaviour and be Connected to God to be virtuous. Then, we can be(come) the next dimension of a WoV...
2. “Woman of Value” – the verse clearly tells us that a Woman of Virtue is also a Woman of Value – not a vain one.  BTW, the Lord expects the man (born-male) to find her. Our go-to verse when we talk about a woman being found is Proverbs 18:22. Let’s read it in 2 versions:

• A man’s greatest treasure is his wife— she is a gift from the Lord. (CEV)
• The man who finds a wife finds a good thing; she is a blessing to him from the Lord. (TLB)

This means that to be a gift and a blessing to one’s husband, you must already be blessed…as you cannot give what you don’t have. To be a Woman of Value, one must have value before becoming a wife, because a wife is found “As is”.

3. “Woman of Vision” – Proverbs 31:21 tells us how she is a Woman of Vision: “She doesn't worry when it snows, because her family has warm clothing.” (GNT) Note that she has prepared herself and her family for whenever it snows – which as we know can happen in any month of the year

Verse 25 goes on to say, “Strength and dignity are her clothing and her position is strong and secure; And she smiles at the future [knowing that she and her family are prepared]” (AMP). This is another pointer that this Woman of Virtue and Woman of Value is also a Woman of Vision.

 

         4. “Woman of Victory” – Synonyms of “Victory” include “Success,” “Triumph,” “Win,”                      "Conquest”

         Proverbs 12:4 says:

• A virtuous and excellent wife [worthy of honor] is the crown of her husband, But she who shames him [with her foolishness] is like rottenness in his bones. (AMP)
• A worthy wife is her husband’s joy and crown; the other kind corrodes his strength and tears down everything he does. (TLB)
  This verse is not saying that a wife “sits on her husband’s head.” Of course not! Imagine how that will weigh Him down if that’s what the verse meant. A crown indicates success and is a sign of victory. It’s noteworthy that even the woman’s husband says, “There are many fine women in the world, but you are the best of them all!” (Proverbs 31:29 - TLB)

Are you ready to wow the world as a WoW (Woman of Worth)? If yes, be committed and determined to be a WoV (Woman of Virtue, Value, Vision & Victory)!
