The Sacred Creed
of the set apart woman


 

THE SACRED INTENT OF FEMININITY

I acknowledge the sacred intent of set-apart femininity. I acknowledge that my life is to be spent wholly on the establishment of Christ’s Kingdom and Glory. I have been asked by the Most High God to be the bearer of His Holy Name, the house of His Holy Presence, and a demonstration of a clear, undiluted and unmarred picture of His Kingly beauty for all the people of this earth to see. I acknowledge this sacred intent, and commit, by the enabling power of the Holy Spirit, to seek the fulfillment of this high calling.

THE SACRED CULTIVATION OF FEMININITY

I acknowledge the sacred cultivation of set-apart femininity. I realize that the work of God must progress and not stagnate within my soul. I understand that I must wrestle in prayer for the fullness of Christ’s work to be made manifest in my life and in the life of others around me. I will not accept breaches in the walls surrounding my soul, but will seek, by the power of the Holy Spirit, to place brick upon brick until every last access point in my life is sealed off for Christ’s glory. I understand that I must be prepared for the holy work of Christ’s Kingdom and that such preparation will be orchestrated by the Almighty with the express purpose of diminishing my flesh in order to bring about a greater spirit strength and authority in my life. I acknowledge this sacred cultivation, and commit, by the enabling power of the Holy Spirit to seek the fulfillment of this high calling.

THE SACRED DESIGN OF FEMININITY

I acknowledge the sacred design of set-apart femininity. I understand that in and of myself, I possess no true beauty or piety, but that in covenant exchange with the Almighty, I have yielded my body unto Jesus and He desires to adorn me with His spectacular, Heavenly beauty. I will no longer allow the voice of my selfish, sinful side to rule my actions and daily decisions; rather, I will submit to the voice of God’s Spirit within, leaning on His enabling grace to live the radiant, victorious, supernatural existence that I could never achieve in my own strength. May He instruct me, correct me, train me, and tenderly shepherd me in the hallowed art of being set-apart for His pleasure and glory. I acknowledge this sacred design, and commit, by the enabling power of the Holy Spirit to seek the fulfillment of this high calling.

THE SACRED PRIORITY OF FEMININITY

I acknowledge the sacred priority of set-apart femininity. I understand that I am made to love intimately and be loved intimately. But I choose to not pervert this innate need by seeking its fulfillment in men, but rather, that I would find this hunger satisfied in the intimate embrace of Jesus Christ. I acknowledge Jesus as more than my precious Savior, more than my Lord and Master, more than my King and Commander – I acknowledge Him as my Prince and Bridegroom, my dearest heart-friend. I claim that my life, my faith, my hope, and my love spring forth from this wellspring, this reality. And whereas, God may choose to give me an earthly groom, a mere man can never and must never replace the position Christ holds within my heart. I acknowledge this sacred priority, and commit, by the enabling power of the Holy Spirit to seek the fulfillment of this high calling.

THE SACRED DECORUM OF FEMININITY

I acknowledge the sacred decorum of set-apart femininity. I understand that my body is the temple of the Most High God; not to be tainted or defiled by what is unclean. I choose this day to agree with God and to never willfully profane His Truth by attempting to make it fit my self-agenda. By God’s enabling grace, I will love the things that God loves, and hate the things that God hates. I will not love the world or the things in the world; but will give my thoughts, time, energy, and attention to the sacred things of His Kingdom rather than the profane things of pop-culture. I acknowledge this sacred decorum, and commit, by the enabling power of the Holy Spirit to seek the fulfillment of this high calling.

THE SACRED ARDOR OF FEMININITY

I acknowledge the sacred ardor of set-apart femininity. I understand that to truly love my future husband well, I must love him with the very love of Christ. As Christ loved me and gave Himself for me, I will seek to sacrificially love and serve my future husband, both now and after marriage. Rather than fighting for my own needs and rights, my goal will be to lay my life down on behalf of my spouse. And even if no earthly love story comes my way, it will be my supreme joy and privilege to serve others and wash their feet, doing for others what Christ has done for me. I acknowledge this sacred ardor, and commit, by the enabling power of the Holy Spirit to seek the fulfillment of this high calling.

THE SACRED MYSTIQUE OF FEMININITY

I acknowledge the sacred mystique of set-apart femininity. I realize that there are dimensions of the feminine nature intended to be kept curtained and hidden from all but Christ and my future spouse in the context of marriage. I understand that by maintaining the beautiful mystery of the “hidden person of the heart”, I am demonstrating the beautiful mystery of the Gospel. I choose to allow the Almighty to hide me, quiet me, and jealously guard me in accordance with his sacred sense of dignity and mystery. I acknowledge this sacred mystique, and commit, by the enabling power of the Holy Spirit to seek the fulfillment of this high calling.
