WOMEN OF VIRTUE
WOMEN OF VIRTUE
A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband:
but she that makes ashamed is
like rottenness in his bones.
(Proverbs 12:4)
God has a very good reason from creating the woman out of the ribs of the man. God’s intention was not to create 2 different persons but one person – man and woman – but one. It is not surprising that when Adam saw Eve for the first time he exclaimed: “This one is bone from my bone, and flesh from my flesh! She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken from ‘man’” (Gen 2:23).
The man and the woman were to be one person. The man was to lead and protect the wife. However, contemporary culture teaches that the woman is a separate entity who should lead herself, separate. Such false teachings have entered the church and society and destroying the fabric of the family – God’s institution. FFCC Women of Virtue conferences, meetings, seminars and prayer and fasting sessions are intended to teach and empower women in the church to take their rightful positions as virtuous women.
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
The heart of her husband does safely trust in her,
so that he shall have no lack of gain
(Prov 31:10-11)
FFCC Women of Virtue Programmes are intended to encourage and motivate as a number of women to understand their role in ‘covering’ their husbands or learn how to relate to men who have oversight responsibilities over their lives. We teach women to understand what it means to submit to their husbands and relate with men in general, without allowing themselves to be abused.
DIFFERENT WOMEN’S EVENTS
Women’s Conference 2020
Women’s Leadership Retreat
Women’s Empowerment Seminars
FFCC Women of Virtue Events have designed and implemented to support women to learn to surrender to the Lordship of Jesus and to serve Him as equal partners with men.. The goal of all our programmes is to help women to become the persons that God created them to be. By organising Conferences, Seminars and Meetings to learn and follow God’s plan for their lives, we encourage women to pursue liberation in the concepts of the Scripture and not to follow the erroneous feminist approaches that antagonise men. We support women to submit to God and men by allowing God’s purposes and goals as detailed in the Scriptures (Bible) to shape our lives.
We believe that through total submission to God and pursuing the virtues enlisted in Proverbs Chapter 31, Women will be liberated to serve God appropriately. We seek for women to imitate the lifestyle of women like Sarah. Abigail, Lois, Eunice and Lydia who were god-fearing; supported ad brought redemption to their husband. These women were industrious and disciplined and lived above reproach. They respected their husbands and brought up their children in the fear of God.
26Therefore I do not run aimlessly; I do not fight like I am beating the air. No, I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified (1 Corn 9:26-27).
CORE VALUES OF PROGRAMMES
The core values that underpin our programmes for restoring dignity and hope to men are as listed below. We support men to shape their lives in line with these values. We have given the scriptural basis for these values so that all men who engage with our programmes can reflect on these:
7 CORE VALUES
LOVE – sacrificing for the good of others… (Eph 5:25; 1 Pet 3:2; Col 3:19)
INTEGRITY – making a choice to do what is right… (Mat 22:16; Neh 7:2; Ps 25:21)
RELATIONSHIP – Valuing God and people above all else… (Mk 12:30; Jos 22:5; Rom 5:11)
COMMITMENT – Overcoming hurdle, focused and not give up… (1 Kings 8:61; Ps 16:3; Luk 9:62)
NETWORKING – Opportunities to working with others… (1 Cor 3:9; Eccl 4:9-12; 1 Cor 1:10)
EMPOWERMENT – Training to equip for every good work… (1 Cor 9:25; Eph 4:12-13; 2 Tim 3:16)
TRANSFORMING – A changed person and a catalyst for change… (2 Cor 5:19; 2 Cor 3:18; Rom 12:12)
We invite every woman to embark on life journey to know God deeply and discover their destinies and accept their value. You are loved by God and He had great and wondering future for your life. He says: “For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a hope and a better future” (Jer 29:11)
I delight to sit in his shade, and his fruit is sweet to my taste.
He brought me to the banqueting house,
and his banner over me was love.
(Song of Solomon 2:3-4)
SPECIAL WOMEN’S EVENTS
FFCC organise special events for Women to take their supportive roles in the church and at home. Unfortunately, many homes lack the father figure and; many single women are doing in an incredible job to fill the void created by absentee fathers and husbands. The Special Events are intended to support and encourage women whether married or not to learn to rely on God and take their rightful positions in life. The FFCC Women of Hope programmes are intended to support women to:
Discover and know Christ deeply and who they are in Christ and pursue their ministries and callings.
Develop a repertoire of skills and values through effective training and ministration
Deploy themselves into evangelism and calling; being true witnesses of Christ
Draw inspiration from the Holy Spirit each day to enable them to do exploits for the Lord
