What Is the Role of Women in Jehovah's Purpose?- - GRAND REWARDS FOR WOMEN WHO FEAR GOD

It is not possible to discuss all the faithful women described in the Bible.  But we can read about them in God's Word and in articles found in our publications.  We can meditate on the example of Ruth and her loyalty.  (Ruth 1:16, 17)  Also, we can benefit by considering the example of Queen Esther.  We can study about these women and others during our family worship. Or if we live alone, we can study about these women and others during our personal study. 

It is very clear that Jehovah has blessed the preaching work of faithful women, even during difficult trials.  For example,  during the times of Nazi oppression and Communist rule, Jehovah helped faithful women to remain loyal to him.  Many suffered, and some were even killed because of their obedience to God. (Acts) 5:29) Like those faithful women, Christian women and others today have chosen God as their Ruler.  Jehovah said to them, just as he said to the ancient Israelites: "Do not be afraid.  I will help you," - ISAIAH 41:10-13.

In the future, men and women who fear God will be used to help millions of resurrected ones to learn about Jehovah and his wonderful purposes for humankind. In addition, they will participate in  restoring the entire earth to a paradise.  Until then, may of us value the privilege we have to serve Jehovah "shoulder to shoulder." - ZEPHANIAH 3:9.
