2 Chronicles 1 (KJV)

10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is so great?
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king:
12 Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.

Revelation 1 (KJV)

8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.




12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt (surrounded) about the paps (chests) with a golden girdle.




14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance (profile, facial expression) was as the sun shineth in his strength.




17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

Christian Single Women, Devotion to God

1 Corinthians 7 (KJV)
34 There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.




35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely (suitable), and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.




Proverbs 31 (KJV)
10 Who can find a virtuous (righteous) woman? for her price is far above rubies.




11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil (harm).
12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.



13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
14 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.




15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.




16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
17 She girdeth (works) her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.



20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.




21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.



25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.



26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.



27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.




28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.



29 Many daughters have done virtuously (righteous), but thou excellest them all.



30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.



31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

What is Church? It is a Prayer House / Healing House

Matthew 21 (KJV)
12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.


It is where one should go to pray, praise God and get healed spiritually. ~ Karmen
