Daniel 12:3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

DEVELOPING A CHRISTIAN LIFE AND SINGLE PLATFORM FOR DEVASTATED WOMEN
(For Women Who Have Made Bad Decisions Or Are Suffering The Bad Decisions Of Others And Are Willing To Live With Proper Desires For God)

Many girls or young women want to live for Jesus and have chastity to offer a mate. This is very good because it is a requirement for marriage and such amorous women are able to accept romantic invitations from men without hiding their past, or deceiving the male. They have a future for grace and peace with an entertaining and helpful spouse, working together as one unity. However, on the other hand, many females suffer devastation, a former loss of virginity. The latter group doesn't have the advantages as the former. Nevertheless, even though wearing the varied colored robe of a virgin (2 Samuel 13:18) is no longer relevant and dating would be unwarranted, living life as a Christian single can still be developed, and happiness can result.

2 Samuel 13:18 And she had a garment of divers colours upon her: for with such robes were the king’s daughters that were virgins apparelled. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her. 19 And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of divers colours that was on her, and laid her hand on her head, and went on crying. 20 And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but hold now thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; regard not this thing. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.

Satan destroyed great possibilities for Tamar, the lovely daughter of King David of Israel. Sometimes, as people have their own faults, parental integrity, guardianship and community fidelity fails, having an undesirable and unfortunate effect upon the children. Furthermore, to add to human failures and afflictions, the devil has his servants as wicked Amnon and his cousin Jonadab plotting from the inside, within homes, families and establishments. We must always keep our guard up because Satan constantly desires our fall.

1 Peter 5: 5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Building a marriage is like building a house, it requires a good foundation. A requirement for marriage is female virginity, except for a chaste widow. Previous defilement can keep a woman from a legitimate marriage. So, in our apostate times when churches are condoning illegitimate marriage and men of God seem to be short in number, let us be very careful as to going along with the crowd on their idea of relationships and marriage.

Losing an opportunity as Tamar can be due to something that is not a fault of the victim, even a sin by others as in her case. Nevertheless, it doesn't destroy a person's ability to be happy with God as a single. God can still bless a person whom Satan's claws of deception and lust have brought great agony. However, a platform of singleness will have to be built, much different than a chaste woman. It will require planning to do all things as a single. Being open to the circumstances and accepting the changes that have to be made is necessary. Even as Tamar went on and lived a single life, so can any other defiled woman. She didn't engage in folly or tempt men as if she wasn't affected by the tragedy. She went a righteous way alone as to not having a mate, but with many and all of God's righteous as friends who suffer her hardship with her.
