Women of faith in pursuit of wisdom! Why was I led to write this book? As I sat down in my living room, doing my daily chores, the Holy Spirit nurtured me and directed me to listen to some CDs for women who spoke at the Wisdom Center in one of the conferences in our church. These women had been used by God mightily that weekend. Gods appointed time and season are perfect; redeem the time because the days are evil. As I listened keenly to every word spoken at that moment, God started teaching me how a woman can be impactful to those around her. A woman of faith has the wisdom and her confidences are in God. After meditating on and focusing on the Lord, the Lord stirred in me a spirit to start drafting a book on women of faith. Great ideas started to flow in my spirit, and one thing led to another. To write a book is not easy, but it requires passion. Thank you for taking the time to read this book. The Holy Spirit is no respecter of persons. Do not ever, ever underestimate what God can do in your life. This could be a new beginning of a new life for you. I pray that as you come across this precious book, you will never be the same again. Believe me, the Bible says let us keep our faith and confidence in him without wavering, for in due season, we shall reap. Because he who has began a good work in us will bring it to completion. His promises are ye and amen, your God will never leave you nor forsake you. Get that in your spirit. I love my fellow women of God who are soldiers of Christ, pressing on toward the plan of God in their lives. They are unshakable and unstoppable in pursuit of the wisdom. They are special in the eyes of God. They carry an anointing that no one else can give other than the creator, God Almighty. I am inspired by these women because their time is spent in Gods presence, wanting to know what God has in store for their future. Time will tell if we tire not lingering in his presence hour after hour. In addition to that, search and read Gods word, praying to see if they are in agreement with him. They are strong, courageous, and victors! And if I may ask, are you one of them? God has put something special in the heart of a woman! Thank you! Celebrate yourselves as a kingdom conqueror. Powerful, isnt it? Praise God.
