The Miracle of God’s Word

Proverbs 31:25
Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.

Strength and honor are what the virtuous woman wears, which is referring to what she is known for. The fruit of her life is that of strength and honor, for she doesn’t rejoice at what she is doing, and neither looks for rewards today, for she knows that her day of rejoicing is to come. This doesn’t sound like the person, who if they do not get what they think they deserve, they will just quit. This virtuous woman looks nothing like most of what is called the church today who demands they are rewarded right now or they will walk away.

This love which has been shed abroad in the heart of the virtuous Bride of Christ (Romans 5:5) will be found rejoicing in the Truth (1 Corinthians 13:6), and not the iniquity that distracts and turns the heart away from the good works she has been ordained to walk in (Ephesians 2:10). Today we rejoice in the Truth, but only as we walk in Truth, and this Truth is Jesus Christ and Him crucified, for there is our first love. If our love isn’t this first love, it is a love that will have its Light removed by the Lord Himself (Revelation 2:4-5). Let us remember today that it is our faithful Lord who is working in us, NOT only to will, but to DO that which is according to His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13). Cling to the cross, which is the only legal place He has made to save and to produce these virtuous works in and through us (Romans 8:2).

Proverbs 31:26
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.

The virtuous woman which King Lemuel is being instructed by the Lord through His mother to search for, will have a heart after God from which wisdom comes (Proverbs 2:6, Colossians 2:2-3). The wisdom of God is having received His Words of understanding in the heart as one looks to the Savior sent by Him to save their soul. This virtuous woman speaks the law of kindness, which refers to her words that come forth from the abundance of her virtuous heart (Matthew 12:34).

The virtuous woman spoken of in the last chapter of Proverbs is to give us a picture of the Bride of Christ here on the earth today awaiting her glorious husband’s return, being found busy about His business. It is His wisdom, and His kindness that we have received of Him through faith in His precious blood. We have been lifted above the world as on eagles wings (Exodus 19:4), and our Way of Life is above that we may depart from the hell that is below (Proverbs 15:24). Oh the love of Christ for His Bride and our love for our King and Savior, which is all seen in the expression of His virtue we were called unto (2 Peter 1:3-5).

Proverbs 31:27
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.

The virtuous woman we see in this last chapter of Proverbs refers mainly to the bride of Christ, which He purchased with His own blood on the cross. When one’s faith is biblical faith, which is faith in the cross of Christ alone, for if it is not there, it is not even in Christ, nor is it in the Word of God, there will be the fruit of this virtue which is spoken of here. The Christian has been called unto glory and virtue, but it is the glory and virtue of Christ which we reflect just as the moon reflects the light of the sun.

Peter writes that the first thing to be added to our faith is virtue (2 Peter 1:3-5), and this virtue is here revealed as a faithful life full of good works (Ephesians 2:10), which are found “In Christ”, which always refers to one’s faith “In Christ” and His work at Calvary. May the church awaken unto this place of faithfulness and virtue today as we await our faithful Husband and Lord Jesus Christ. He is coming soon and we do not want to be ashamed, but rather rejoicing as we see Him!

Proverbs 31:28
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.

The virtuous woman raises her children in the admonition of the Lord, and they will rise up and call their mother blessed as they see the fruit of her faithful works. Her husband also praises her for her faithfulness to the family God gave her. Her integrity and virtue does not go unnoticed by her husband or her children.

The body of Christ is this virtuous woman described in Proverbs 31, and through faith in the very work of her husband Jesus Christ on His cross (Romans 7:3), she finds this great virtue to walk in (Ephesians 2:10, Colossians 2:6, 2 Peter 1:3-5). He rejoices over His bride with joy, and He is resting in His love for her, as well as joying over her with singing (Zephaniah 3:17). He is thankful for the bride which His blood purchased, and we should be thankful as well, as we express Him daily among the family of God and all men!

Proverbs 31:29
Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.

Many daughters have done virtuously, which means they have done well, but doing virtuous things can be very different from being virtuous, for even the evil do what appears to be good things occasionally. The Bride of Jesus Christ has every opportunity each day to show forth the virtue that we have been called to walk in (2 Peter 1:3-5). Some do virtuous things occasionally, while some walk in virtue and are known by its virtuous fruit.

The only way the virtue of Christ is by the power of the Holy Spirit who works exclusively through the legal means given Him to work in our lives, which is through our faith in the legal work of Jesus Christ at Calvary (Romans 8:2). If we fight to maintain our faith in the cross of Christ, the first thing added to our faith will be virtue (2 Peter 1:5). We have been given everything we need to be able to live this Life of virtue through the means of the cross. Let us hold fast our confidence of this hope firm unto the end, for many are forsaking the way of the cross! Hold fast!

Proverbs 31:30
Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.

A woman may be known for the favor she shows, or she may be known for her outward beauty, both of which are vain if that is what she is using to get anything in this life. It is the woman who fears the Lord who will be praised. The fear of the Lord is where this woman of virtue finds confidence (Proverbs 14:26-27). The fear of the Lord is the proper estimated value of God’s worth, which is only seen through faith in what His Son Jesus Christ did for all at the cross.

We live in a world today that is all about what we see outwardly, but the Lord doesn’t give it the time of day, and only looks on the heart of man (1 Samuel 16:7), and that is what He deals with. Jesus said that men drew near and honored Him with their lips outwardly, but their HEARTS were far from Him (Matthew 15:8). It is only with the heart that man believes unto righteousness (Romans 10:10), which always points to Christ and His Righteous work at the cross! Always remember, child of God, that every time faith comes, its fruit will be that of Righteousness!
Glory to God!!

Proverbs 31:31
Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

The Lord Himself when He comes will reward His Bride with the work of her hands (Matthew 16:27), and the work of her hands will be her praise in the gates, which speaks of places of authority. The true works of God’s people are the works of the Holy Spirit. Every treasure we are told to lay up for ourselves in heaven (Matthew 6:20), are the things the Lord has been able to overcome us enough to bring to pass in and through us. Every reward we will receive from the Lord is that which He has been able to do in and through us as our faith remains exclusively in His Righteous work at Calvary.

The Bride of Christ, this virtuous woman spoken of here in the last chapter of Proverbs is soon to be taken out of the world, and the world will surely be in a terrible way at that time. If we are the salt and the light of the world today, and then we are gone, you must imagine the horror of that thought! The Bride of Christ is the virtue of Christ in the earth today, and when we are gone, everything that had virtue will be gone in the twinkling of an eye!
Coming soon to a theatre near you! Praise the Lord forever!!
