It’s Day 15 of our Proverbs 31 Woman Bible Study!
Today, we’re going to dig into Proverbs 31:30-31
Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing,
But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.
Give her of the fruit of her hands,
And let her own works praise her in the gates.

Bible Study Notes
- The woman who fears the Lord is developing THE MOST important Godly character trait of them all. After all this will bear fruit in eternity.
- Make it your #1 goal to develop a close, intimate, personal relationship with the Lover of your soul. There’s nothing better than knowing God for yourself.
- Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart. I also believe, as you delight yourself in Him, your desires will become more like what he desires for you. There’s harmony and peace in this level of relationship.

Proverbs 31 Woman Bible Study – Day 15
(The One Thing That Matters Most. . . Eternity!)
The best character trait we could ever hope to develop, in this life, is to be a woman who fears the Lord.
Fear in this scripture means:
- reverence
- honor
- respect
It is obvious this woman had a fear for the Lord because look at all she did! She was diligent in her work, resourcefulness with all she had, giving to those in need, enterprising, speaking wisdom and so much MORE!
There’s no way she could’ve accomplished all of this, without God being at the core of who she is, as a woman.
That’s the way it should be.
When we first started out in this bible study, we learned that Godly character creates godly deeds. There’s really no way to do this without honoring God in all you do.
Close Intimate, Personal Relationship With God
Everything else will pass. . . but your relationship with God will have eternal rewards!
You are leaving a legacy for your daughters to follow, so they will have a model of the kind of woman they should aspire to be like.
You are leaving a legacy for your sons, so they know the kind of woman they should seek out and marry.
Above all else, be sure to make it your mission to maintain your relationship with God.
I know it gets tight, especially if you are in a season of little ones, newly married, health challenges, or a number of things. However know this, any time with God is better than no time with God.
Spending time with the lover of your soul will restore, revive, and refresh you like NOTHING else in this world!
Keep God your #1 priority in life. The eternal rewards are SO WORTH IT!
Delight Yourself In The Lord
There is a familiar scripture (Psalm 37:4), which says:
Delight yourself in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
I imagine the Proverbs 31 Woman delighted herself in the Lord, and as a result she was given the ‘fruit of her hands.’ Proverbs 31:31
Another translation reads – ‘Give her everything she deserves!’ (MSG)
I truly believe a woman who delights herself in the Lord is a Proverbs 31 Woman. Because of this, she will receive the fruit of her hands and everything she deserves.
If I can encourage you. . .
Keep seeking after the heart of God.
Keep developing your Godly character.
Keep the lessons you’ve learned in this bible study close to you.
If you do, you will see a life lived out well for Christ. You’ll establish both a living legacy and leave a lasting legacy for others to follow.
Best of all your eternal rewards will BLOW YOUR MIND!!

What a Beautiful Study this was and I thank you❤ I feel BLESSED! I have learned alot & still have alot to learn as I am a work in progress. Again Thank you & God Bless you! *also I will share this with others, so they can be blessed too❤
I don’t know where to start- I love this Bible Study! I recommend this study for every woman! Thank you for helping me to see and understand how virtuous I really am and and what is a virtuous woman and what areas I need more time with the Father.
I thank God for everything and that He put this Bible Study on my journey. I am looking forward to my growing and becoming more and more like the Virtuous Woman.
God Bless
I loved this Bible study and have learned so much about the Godly woman, wife & mother God wants me to be! I am so happy I ordered the workbook so I can go back over this again and again. God has blessed you well and thank you for putting this together. I did not have have Godly mother (step-mother) growing up and no one set an example for me. I am ashamed of a lot of my past mistakes but I know God has forgiven me and saved me. I am growing in faith and strength daily and pray that He continues to guide me to becoming a Proverbs 31 Woman.

Thank you for this Bible Study. Yes I finished behind schedule, but I did finish. It has taught me alot and shown me I still have alot to learn, but then I already knew that..lol.
I’m so glad it blessed you, Barb!
Thank God for this study! It has really been a conformation for me. I realized that I am walking in the path of Gods glorious plan for my life, and am more of the Proverbs woman than I realized. I had not studied this message in depth, but was familiar with it. And God revealed to me that it’s exactly what I have been working so hard to be. When I doubt myself I just need to be reminded that I am her. Thank you for this study and your Awesome messages!
I reached day 15 of this bible study today and I just want to thank you! It has truly blessed my life and through this, I learned how these character traits of a Proverbs 31 Woman are what will help me to commit fully to my relationship with God. I will be holding close to my heart these studies as I move forward in the plans God has for me. God bless you for all that you have shared in this Bible Study
I’m so glad it blessed you, Ashley! Thanks for sharing how He is growing you.
I enjoyed the study and took away many truths. I felt that the study is directed more to the younger married woman. I am single and in my 60’s. I commit everything I do to the Lord, I just don’t have the focus of “family or household” at this stage of life.
Thank you for this study. I am prayerfully asking to be made Silk over steel.
Wow wow wow! It gave me assurance, hope and great insight on me becoming this Proverbs 31 woman.. Yay! Praise God for this study & you too. Amen
Thank you for this wonderful study of a Proverbs 31 woman. You are such an encourager! I loved how you broke everything down for us. I have saved the entire study and will be referring to it often.
If you have other bible study groups, please give me a heads up. I would love to join if you are teaching.
God has blessed you with a voice to reach so many, and I am very thankful I found you. I’ll be praying for you.
