What Does it Mean to be a Woman After God’s Own Heart?
6:36 AM
Have you ever wondered what character qualities David possessed that qualified him, in God's eyes, to be a man after God's own heart? Have you longed to possess all those same qualities in your own faith walk?
I have! I would love to be known by God as a woman after God's own heart!
I believe when God is looking for a woman after His own heart, He is searching for a woman like you and me, who does not merely love Him, no it goes much deeper than that.
I believe He is also looking for women who share the same qualities He found in David (1 Samuel 13:14). God is searching for a woman:
- Who has given her heart to her Lord completely and is wholly surrendered to His authority .
- Whose love for God is both fierce and tender at times.
- She is a woman who desires to do God’s will no matter the cost.
- She’s a God chaser, who can say,
As the deer pants for the water brooks, so pants my soul for You, O God. My soul thirsts … for the living God” (Ps. 42:1-2).
A woman after God's heart is one who is far from perfect, but her heart keeps pursuing the only One who is.
She is a worshipper, whose life is in perfect harmony with the Lord.
- What is important to God is important to her.
- What burdens Him, burdens her.
- She is one who is listening and looking for God guidance.
She is also one who has put her past behind her; accepting God's forgiveness and is eager to discover all that lies ahead.
- She is transparent with her struggles as well as her victories. One who seeks the help of others and also seeks to come alongside to encourage and give hope!
- She love others with the same compassion as the Lord shares for others and seeks to help those in need.
