If you are interested in what the Bible says about being a wise woman, you might want to read some of the passages in the book of Proverbs, which is full of wisdom and instruction for living a godly life. Here are some of the characteristics of a wise woman according to Proverbs:
- She fears the Lord and trusts in His word (Proverbs 1:7, 31:30)
- She speaks with wisdom and kindness (Proverbs 10:31, 31:26)
- She is diligent and productive in her work (Proverbs 14:1, 31:13-19)
- She is generous and compassionate to the poor and needy (Proverbs 14:31, 31:20)
- She is prudent and careful in her decisions (Proverbs 16:16, 31:16)
- She is faithful and loyal to her husband and family (Proverbs 18:22, 31:11-12, 28)
- She is strong and dignified in her character (Proverbs 20:29, 31:25)
- She is praised and honored for her noble deeds (Proverbs 27:2, 31:28-31)
These are just some of the examples of a wise woman in the Bible. You can find more by reading the whole book of Proverbs or other books that contain stories of godly women such as Ruth, Esther, Deborah, Mary, etc. A wise woman does not need a husband or children to be praised. She will be praised and honored for her noble character and deeds. Those privileged to know her, will seek to emulate or imitate her way of life and her fear of God. Nothing given to her by God will be wasted.
If you desire to be a wise woman, or are praying for a young girl or woman in your life, this is a great list to pray through for yourself or someone else. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” (Psalm 111:10).
