Greetings 👋
God promised and promises blessing to those who are obedient to His word.
“Now it will be, if you will diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, being careful to do all His commandments which I am commanding you today, then the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth.
And all these blessings will come on you and overtake you if you listen to the voice of the Lord your God.
You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the field.
Your offspring will be blessed, and the produce of your ground, and the offspring of your livestock, the increase of your herd and the flocks of your sheep.
Your basket and your kneading bowl will be blessed.
You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.
The Lord will cause your enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you; they will come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.
The Lord will command the blessing on you in your barns and in all that you set your hand to do, and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.”
Deuteronomy 28: 1-8 (MEV).
Do any young women you know aspire to become a Proverbs 31 wife?
“A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.”
Proverbs 31:10-12 (NIV)
Marriage is a two-way street. I’ve never had a successful one myself, but I’ve known many couples who have. Those who pray together, worship together, and work together toward common goals have a far greater chance of building something that endures.
Young ladies, the Proverbs 31 standard isn’t outdated — it’s countercultural and powerful.

Here’s a simple prayer that God will hear.
“Be pleased to save me, Lord; come quickly, Lord, to help me.
May all who want to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.”

Enjoy Paul’s prayer for the Ephesians. It’s one of my favorites.
“For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people,
I have not stopped giving thanks for you,remembering you in my prayers.
I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father,may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.
I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe.
That power is the same as the mighty strength he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.
And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head ...
