Are there powerful women in the bible?? The answer is yes! There are several examples of women who shine as examples to us today on how we can live with confidence. These women are especially suited to help women today seeking inspiration in their faith and lifestyle. Today there are several ways we can incorporate their example, one of which is the way we dress.
Esther
Esther 2:15-17 highlights Esther’s inner qualities and character which led to her being chosen as queen. She found favor with all those around her and portrayed confidence and faith through hard times.
Esther's decision to approach the king highlights her incredible courage, a pivotal moment where she declares, “If I perish, I perish.” This act of faith not only showcases her bravery, but her devotion to her people.
Today you can follow her example. Faith can empower you to embrace your identity. Modesty can embrace the grace and purpose that Esther represented.
Ruth
Ruth is an amazing example of faith and loyalty in the bible. Following the death of her husband, she made the courageous decision to follow her mother-in-law back to Bethlehem, “Where you go, I will go; where you stay, I will stay. Your people will be my people, and your God my God” (Ruth 1:16).”
By dressing modestly you can embrace the values of Ruth, whose loyalty and faith continue to inspire us. Modesty can be a reflection of character and show what you believe and feel.
Mary, Mother of Jesus
Mary is a profound figure in the Bible, exemplifying virtue and courage. When she was chosen to bear the Son of God, she accepted this call with strength and faith: “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord.”
Her resilience and love nurtured Jesus and her steadfast example of obedience continues to inspire many today.
We can be reminded of the importance of humility and honor our values as we show others what we believe.
Power in Appearance
Just as these women exemplified strength and virtue, the way we dress can be an outward expression of our inner commitments. We can portray confidence, power, and virtue like these women of old.
