So on the blog today, I asked some of my Godly ladies what
they look out for in a Godly man when they are contemplating friendship or ultimately marriage.

squeeze themselves into, it is a list that provides guide on the things that
really matter.

So what we want
Be Responsible
Some men in today’s world are highly irresponsible, while
people think that it is just women who are sitting down and folding their hands
doing nothing, it will be a major shock if you're opportuned to see some homes where
it is the wife who is shouldering all the responsibilities of the home while
the man of the house is comfortable with just sitting down at home while she
goes out and bring food to the table.
While this is not saying that women should totally rely on
their men and not be able to step into some shoes if things aren’t going on
well, far from it, but men should be responsible enough.
Have A Vision You’re
Pursuing
Most Godly women aren’t looking for already made men, while having
your own stuff is appreciated, but it isn’t the core of it all.
While most men think that all women want is money but that
is only a big joke, not every woman is moved by just how many zeros your
account reflects, while we know that there are several things that money can
buy, we also know that there are some things that money cannot buy.
You have money, fine but what happens when any unforeseen
circumstances just shows up, what do you have on the inside that can guarantee
the multiplication of the things you currently have?
We hear a lot about women not leaving a man that has a big vision and following a man who has a big television set because it is only a
matter of time before she will start seeing that man with a big television in
her husband’s television.
While this is not saying men who have television do not have
vision (is there a man in today’s world who doesn’t’ have television?)
All that is saying is that ladies shouldn’t be moved just by
the present while leaving the ultimate.
Most women at least those I know will never follow a man
just based on what his present pay cheque is because they have come to
understand that it isn’t just about what he has now but what he can have with
God and the vision currently driving him.
Love And Fear Of God
While a man who loves his woman is a great deal, but we’d
prefer a man who loves the Lord deeply, there are some situations where just
his love for his woman won’t be able to keep him, but his love for God is able
to take him through those circumstances.
While Joseph was in Potiphar’s house, we weren’t told if he
already had a relationship going with a woman or not, but even in a strange
land just one thing helped him put his zip in its right place.
This was his question to the Potiphar’s wife
How can I do this
great wickedness and sin against God?
It is first about God!
There is just an aura about you loving God, it is something
that is almost tangible.
There is definitely something
about a man who loves and fears God.
Be Financially Stable
While most men think that most what most women want is
money, money and a little more money and until you have that currency in
abundance, then you shouldn’t come close to her, but that is not the total
truth.
What most Godly women wants as deduced by what the ladies I
interviewed said is not just a man with lots of money to throw around but a
God-fearing and responsible man.
If that man has enough cash to throw around or not will not be an issue as that will only be the icing on the cake and not the cake itself because she is confident that with God and her presence in his life, what he lacks today will become excess tomorrow.

Godly ladies are not moved by how much you have or how much
you earn, while it is not as though we love to suffer but we have come to
realize that although a man might not look like it today, but that doesn’t he
would not become.
As God’s girls, we see things beyond the physical, we
understand that all the things that we can see now were all made from things
not seen.
It is only a matter of time before he becomes blessed in All things!
This isn’t in anyway telling God’s sons to be lazy or to
just accept whatever life throws at them, far from it!
They are to be diligent men, men who can talk at the gates
and will be listened to.
Relationship is capital intensive, while a Godly woman would
not keep tasking you and demanding that you should buy her things, but that
doesn’t stop you from buying her stuff.
Sometimes, it isn’t in how expensive what you’re buying is
but the heart behind it and from whom it is coming.
Be ready to buy her expensive gifts, be prepared to buy her things that are not so capital intensive too.
Be ready to be a man!
