20 Ways of a Godly Wife

1. Trustworthy
“The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain.” – Proverbs 31:11

 

2. Seeks Good
“She does him good, and not harm,all the days of her life” – Proverbs 31:12

 

3. Creative
“She seeks wool and flax, and works with willing hands.” – Proverbs 31:13

4. Diligent
“She is like the ships of the merchant; she brings her food from afar.” – Proverbs 31:14

5. Self-less
“She rises while it is yet night and provides food for her household and portions for her maidens.” – Proverbs 31:15

6. Resourceful
“She considers a field and buys it; with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard.” – Proverbs 31:16

7. Strong
“She dresses herself with strength and makes her arms strong.” – Proverbs 31:17

8. Economical
“She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp does not go out at night.” – Proverbs 31:18

9. Driven
“She puts her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle.” – Proverbs 31:19

10. Giving
“She opens her hand to the poor and reaches out her hands to the needy.” – Proverbs 31:20

11. Prepared
“She is not afraid of snow for her household, for all her household are clothed in scarlet.” – Proverbs 31:21

12. Well-Dressed
“She makes bed coverings for herself; her clothing is fine linen and purple.” – Proverbs 31:22

13. Supportive
“Her husband is known in the gates when he sits among the elders of the land.” – Proverbs 31:23

14. Hard Working
“She makes linen garments and sells them; she delivers sashes to the merchant.” – Proverbs 31:24

15. Vision
“Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.” – Proverbs 31:25

16. Wisdom
“She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.” – Proverbs 31:26

17. Industrious
“She looks well to the ways of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.” – Proverbs 31:27

18. Respected
“Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:” – Proverbs 31:28

19. Ambitious
“Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all.” – Proverbs 31:29

20. Fears the Lord
“Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her in the gates.” – Proverbs 31:30

    I’m not sure that “well dressed” one is so accurate. The verse sited seems too loose of an application and it seems to contradict Matthew 6:25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? “
