“She equips herself with strength [spiritual, mental, and physical fitness for her God-given task]
And makes her arms strong.”

Womanhood ushers in the role of student, mother, wife, business woman, sister, daughter and friend. One can easily become overwhelmed with the wearing of various hats and lose oneself in the midst of supporting others.
The Proverbs woman is equipped for the tasks and roles portioned to her by quenching her daily spiritual thirst from the Father. This is where the true strength of womanhood is derived and executed from. She can function flawlessly being filled with his Spirit first resulting in supporting the people around her cheerfully and effectively. She understands embracing the spirit of the Lord provides her an eternal, divine strength that does not run dry.
“On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.””
