Ladies! Freedom Can Be Dangerous

Ladies of Godly Value, one of the greatest silent enemies that is eating deep into the soul of many young women today is the unguarded craving for freedom. On the surface, freedom looks like a beautiful thing—freedom to choose, to explore, to be independent, and to "live your truth." But beneath this attractive mask lies a subtle pride that resists counsel, rejects accountability, and disconnects daughters from the voice of wisdom. Proverbs 14:12 warns, “There is a way that seems right to a man, but the end is the way to death.” Many ladies, in the name of freedom, have walked away from protection into confusion, from covering into chaos.

The pride behind this craving often wears the garments of popular culture—phrases like “I don’t owe anyone an explanation,” “It’s my life,” or “I’m grown enough to decide for myself.” These mindsets are not birthed from the Spirit of God but from the spirit of rebellion and self-glorification. Galatians 5:13 says, “For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.” The prideful pursuit of freedom without submission to divine order and godly counsel has separated daughters from fathers who once guided them, mothers who once loved them, and spiritual leaders who once poured into them.

In marriage, this seed of pride matures into resistance against the structure God has ordained. A lady who craved freedom to escape her home will struggle to submit in her husband's home. She may wear the ring, but her heart remains single—independent, unteachable, and emotionally unavailable. The same pride that fought her father’s instruction will now fight her husband’s leadership. Titus 2:5 speaks of young women being “self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.” But pride makes this instruction seem like oppression rather than protection.

If unchecked, this uncontrolled desire for freedom leaves a trail of broken relationships, wounded hearts, and silent regret. The future is not kind to those who abandon the foundation of honor, structure, and accountability. Many ladies have succeeded in walking away from their homes, only to find themselves lost in homes they built without guidance. Dear lady of value, true freedom is not rebellion—it is alignment. It is the freedom found in surrender to God’s way. Psalm 119:45 declares, “I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts.” You were never designed to live without boundaries—you were designed to flourish within God’s loving borders.

Negative Effect of Testing a Man or Playing with his Intelligence or Heart during Dating

Testing a man or playing with his intelligence or heart during dating can have serious consequences that may carry over into a future marriage, leading to a host of negative outcomes. When you engage in such behavior, it can create a foundation of distrust, emotional pain, and misunderstanding that can be difficult to overcome. Imagine you’re in a relationship where you’re constantly testing your partner's intentions, questioning his sincerity, and trying to gauge how much he truly cares for you. While this might seem like a way to protect yourself or to ensure that his feelings are genuine, it can actually undermine the very relationship you’re trying to build. Proverbs 14:1 says, "The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down." By testing a man’s heart, you might unintentionally be tearing down the trust and connection that are essential for a healthy relationship. When you test a man's intelligence or play with his emotions...

Message for Godly Women

In a world that often emphasizes marriage as the ultimate goal for women, it's essential to remember our inherent worth and the unique purpose that God has designed for each of us. While marriage is undoubtedly a beautiful aspect of life, it is not the sole measure of our value or fulfillment. As Godly women, we are called to recognize and embrace the original purpose and assignment that God has placed upon our lives. Marriage may be a phase, but it is not the entirety of our existence. Our identity and significance are rooted in our relationship with our Creator, not in our marital status. Too often, societal pressures and cultural expectations lead us to prioritize finding a spouse above all else. We may even find ourselves building our entire future around the idea of marriage, neglecting the unique gifts, talents, and passions that God has entrusted to us. But let us remember that God has created each of us with a divine purpose, one that extends far beyond the confines of marr...
