7 Ways to know you’re in a relationship with a Godly Woman
#1 She is clear about whom she wants and what she wants in the relationship.
There is no second-guessing about her choice and no second-guessing about what she wants. When she commits, she does it 100. A Godly woman won’t play games with your emotions and neither does she tolerate games. There is not second option and no ‘ex’ to revisit when things aren’t working out. She’s either all in or she’s all out. When she commits, she does so wholeheartedly with an end result in mind. She’s not looking to be a girlfriend. She’s in anticipation of one day becoming a wife.
#2 She prays with you and for you.
She’s a woman of faith and prayer. She’s not easily moved by what she sees. She’s a firm believer that spending time will God can change any situation. When things aren’t going so well in the relationship, her first order of business is not an argument, but prayer.
#3 She refuses to play house and live with you or allow you to move in.
As pure as her love is for you and as much as she wants the best for you, she is not going to play house or assume the wife role for a man she’s not married to. She will help you bring order to the disorder in your life, BUT she will not become the responsible party. The house is yours; the bills are yours; the laundry is yours; the grocery shopping and meals to cook are yours too. She clearly understands that a ‘wife benefits’ only comes within the parameter of the sacred union of marriage.
#4 She won’t pressure you to have sex before saying ‘I do.’
She will not pressure, coerce, beg, tempt or make you feel guilty about not giving her any. While it may be true that men tend to be more focused on this area, there are a great number of women who are too. Through prayer, a Godly woman manages both her emotions and sexual desires well. She doesn’t need to test out the equipment to ensure it works to her satisfaction before saying ‘I do.’ Purity comes at a cost, but it’s a price she’s willing to pay. She trusts God that the benefits of waiting will be well worth it.
#5 She won’t degrade, belittle or use foul language towards you, around you or at you.
She honors and respects you. She esteems you highly. She understands the power of her words. Once spoken, they can never be retracted. Instead of cursing you, she blesses you. Instead up pulling you down, she builds you up. Instead of letting you deal with hard times alone, she comforts and supports you through it. She is her man’s number one supporter.
#6 She puts God before you.
She loves you, but she loves God more. She refuses to make an idol out of you by putting your needs before God’s requirements. Although she trusts your leadership, if your leadership is taking her in a direction that’s contrary to God’s word, without question, she sticks to God’s word. This has nothing to do with her love for you, but her loyalty is to God first.
#7 She loves you unconditionally
Life has its challenges, but this Godly woman is unrelenting in her unconditional love for you. Through your seasons of life if you gain plenty or lose much; if you’re healthy enough to run a marathon or recovering from a sickness; if you become a successful entrepreneur or suffer a major layoff; if you gain fifty pounds or lose twenty; if you buy her a dream home or have to move into an apartment (in marriage); her love for you doesn’t change. It is unhindered by it all. This woman loves you unconditionally.

Aaaaaamen! 🙂 Hallelujah!
I full Heartedly agree with the statements that where made about how a Godly women should be. It’s hard when temptation comes into play to not follow what God has asked us to do in waiting until marriage to have full inamaseay
I totally understand Jenfaithfull. Maintaining on our own is not easy. Definitely have to be prayerful and rely on the help of the Holy Spirit with some personal disciplines too.
Amen! Powerful! This list is definitely true. Most time we focus on the men but they want a Godly woman as well. Love It!
Aaaaaaamen 🙂
I am yes and amen on what you said,yes it’s hard but I don’t think it’s to hard for God to send me a real Godly man I beleive that He will.
Thanks!

This is a great article. But some Christian sources have said that an unmarried couple praying together is not wise. They say it will make you too intimate too quickly. I don’t know which side to believe, so when in doubt I prefer to err on the safe side, which would be not doing it. A short prayer over a meal is ok, but long prayers may not be a good idea.
Thanks James! I definitely understand your point. For many, intense prayer can equate to the greatest form of intimacy. Praying for someone doesn’t necessarily mean praying with them. However, there will be times when the person will need their partner to truly pray with them on certain immediate challenges they may be facing. In that case, I say grab hands and pray. In those non-emergency times, short prayers will do. 🙂 Thanks for your great input!
This is the problem with me. Listening to too many believers even from the same church! Every believer I know will follow the pied piper and quote the do not be unequally yoked scripture. Well that scripture does NOT direct to intimate and INTERPERSONAL relationships. It directs to ALL and any type of relationship. However…the Bible also shows scriptures where we are to love others even before ourselves, and to lead others. Even used believers in intimate personal relationships to lead their non-believing or no knowledge love interest…for God’s way. So what mist one do???! Pray and ask for guidance I say.
MY best advice is to pray together. Bringing you too together spiritually I imagine will only be a positive thing since being sexual outside of marriage is the only thing that non married couples should avoid and which is more attaching than prayer so say the Bible…well PRAY TOGETHER. If you’re not having sex then it won’t hurt. If you are…then the more reason to! If killers and pedophiles and adulterers repeatedly supposedly are forgiven for their sins you should be for communicating with God with your partner…married or not. MY take. Sorry so lengthy. Bless.
