"Many daughters have done nobly,
But you excel them all."
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised.
Proverbs 31:29-30
The High Calling of Womanhood
o you long to fulfill Yahweh’s purpose for you? Do you want His will to be
fulfilled in your life more than anything else? If you were told that only one
Dout of a hundred thousand women fear Yahweh and seek to be found pleasing
to Him in all aspects of their lives; if you were advised that His will would lead you
to walk differently, speak differently, dress differently, and in very profound ways to
simply live differently than all the women in the society around you, as well as the
vast majority in the church, would you yet desire to obey?
To put a desire to please Yahweh above every other desire is to fear Him. Such a life
will eventually lead to praise. The praise referred to will not be the hollow acclaim
of a fallen world that is passing away. It will be the praise that originates in the mind

who formed us? Yahshua heard the voice from heaven proclaim, “Behold, this is My
beloved Son in whom I am well pleased.” This is the manner of praise of which we
speak.
What is it that elicits the praise of Yahweh upon men and women? Is it not
obedience? And what is obedience? Is it not conformity to the revealed mind of the
Father?
Yahshua said He was always beholding the Father and He only did the things He saw
the Father doing. He said He only spoke the words the Father gave Him to speak. He
declared that He never did anything that had its origin outside of the Father’s will.
John 8:28-29
So Yahshua said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know
that I am He, and I do nothing on My own initiative, but I speak these
things as the Father taught Me. And He who sent Me is with Me; He has
not left Me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him."
The world has many definitions for success. People who have great talents are viewed
as successful. People who make lots of money, who make a name for themselves, or
