33 GODLY RULES FOR GODLY WOMEN

1). Never raise your voice for any reason to your husband. It is a sign of disrespect. “A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.” (Prov 15v1)

2). don’t expose your husband's weaknesses to your family and friends. It will bounce back at you. You are each other's keeper. “For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.” (Eph 5v12)

3). Never use attitudes and moods to communicate to your husband, you never know how your husband will interpret them. Defensive women don't have a happy home. “A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.” (Prov 15v13)

4). Never compare your husband to other men; you've no idea what their life is all about. If you attack his Ego, his Love for you will diminish. 2Co 10:12 “For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.”

5). Never ill treat your husband's friends because you don't like them, the person who's supposed to get rid of them is your husband. Pr 11:22 “As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.” (Prov 11v22)

6). Never forget that your husband married you, not your maid or anyone else. Do your duties. “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” (Gen 2v24)

7). Never assign anyone to give attention to your husband, people may do everything else but your husband is your own responsibility. “Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.” (Eph 5v33)

8). Never blame your husband if he comes back home empty handed. Rather encourage him. “But charge Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him: for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which thou shalt see.” (Deut 3v28)

9). Never be a wasteful wife, your husband's sweat is too precious to be wasted.

10). Never pretend to be sick for the purpose of denying your husband sex. You must give it to him how he wants it. Sex is very important to Men, if you keep denying him, it is a matter of time before another woman takes over that duty. No man can withstand sex starvation for too long (even the highly anointed ones). 1Co 7:5 “Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.”

11). Never compare your husband to your one time sex mate in bedroom, or an Ex-lover.

12). Never answer for your husband in public opinion polls, let him handle what is directed to him although he may answer for you in public opinion polls.

13). Never shout or challenge your husband in front of children. Wise women don't do that. “Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:” (Eph 4v31)

14).  Don't forget to check the smartness of your husband before he checks out. “A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.” (Prov 12v4)

15). Never allow your friends to be too close to your husband.

16). Never be in a hurry in the bathroom and on the dressing table. Out there your husband is always surrounded by women who took their time on their looks. “Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail: and she was a woman of good understanding, and of a beautiful countenance: but the man was churlish and evil in his doings;...” ( 1 Sam25v3)

17). Your parents or family or friends do not have the final say in your marriage. Don't waste your time looking up to them for a final word. You must Leave if you want to Cleave. “And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.” (Luke 21v16)

18). Never base your love on monetary things. Will you still submit to him even if you earn more money than him? Eph 5:22 “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.”

19). Don't forget that husbands want attention and good listeners, never be too busy for him. Good communication is the bed rock of every happy home. “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” (Gal 6:9)

20). If your idea worked better than his, never compare yourself to him. Home building is a teamwork.

21). Don't be too judgemental to your husband. No man wants a Nagging wife. “Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.” (Eph 4v29)

22). A lazy wife is a careless wife. She doesn't even know that her body needs a bath. Pr 24:27 “Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house.” (Prov 24v27). “Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.” (Prov 20v13)

23). You must be a good cook. No man jokes with food. “She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.” (Prov 31:14)

24). Never be too demanding to your husband. Enjoy every moment, resource as it comes.

25). Make a glass of water the very first welcome to your husband and everyone entering your home. Sweetness of attitude is true beauty. 

26). Don't associate with women who have a wrong mental attitude about marriage. “The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.” (Prov 22:14)

27). Your marriage is as valuable to you as the value that you give it. Recklessness is unacceptable. Heb 13:4 “Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” (Heb 13:4)

28). Fruit of the womb is a blessing from the Lord, love your children and   teach them well. “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” (Prov 22:6)

29). You are never too old to influence your home. Never reduce your care for your family for any reason. Pr 31:28 “Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.” (Prov 31:28)

30). A prayerful wife is a better equipped wife. Pray always for your husband and family. “Pray without ceasing.” (1 Thess 5v17)

31. Never share your husband’s love or affection with anybody.  

32. Be gentle and accommodating. “With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;” Eph 4:2. 

33. Never hide anything from your husband.
