"Women of Standard"

Joshua 24:15, "But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."

As the New Woman in the New Year, ladies we are going to have to set standards for our homes and ourselves. We often will allow our Girlfriends to speak where God should have a Voice. Whether single, married, engaged, or widowed, we all have to have an order of standard that can't be compromised nor dictated by society. During Joshua's time, the people had turned to idol gods and he made it clear to them that they couldn't serve foreign gods and the Holy God because He is holy and a jealous God. As Women of God, we have to examine ourselves to ensure that we aren't giving more time and devotion to things more than God. Anything that we position before God is an idol in our lives, whether it be a career, a man, a car, shoes, alcohol, etc...Divas, we have to make it clear where the lines are drawn and when they are crossed. Those who challenge your relationship desire to defeat you. We have to stand and speak boldly as Joshua and let it be known that in spite of how others live, we are going to serve the Lord and be righteous. Be blessed and be a blessing!
