Embracing Your Divine Purpose: A Call to Single Women

There is a voice in this world that whispers into the hearts of single women, telling them they are incomplete, that something is missing, and that they are alone. Too many have believed this lie, waiting for a ring to define their worth or a man to complete their story. But I ask, when did God ever create a woman to be defined by anything less than His divine purpose? The world might tell you that being single means you are lacking, but I stand here to tell you that there is nothing missing in a woman who walks with God. If you are single, it’s not because you are forgotten; it’s because you are set apart for a greater calling. God has a perfect plan for you, and in this season, He is preparing you for something far more powerful than what the world can offer. "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11).

In the Bible, we see countless examples of women who walked in faith long before they were married or even without marriage at all. Esther, Ruth, and Mary were all divinely chosen by God before they entered into the roles the world recognizes. Esther was chosen to save her people before she became a queen; Ruth was faithful and worked diligently before Boaz entered her life; Mary, the mother of Jesus, was called blessed because of her faith, not her marital status. These women are proof that God's purpose for a woman does not depend on a man. So, if you find yourself single, don't let the world’s standards define you. Know that God is preparing you for something far greater than what the world can understand. "For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart" (1 Samuel 16:7).

Singleness is not a curse or a punishment, but a season of empowerment and growth. It’s a time when God is shaping your character, deepening your faith, and preparing you for the next chapter of your life. Don’t see your single years as a waiting room, but as a training ground where God refines you and prepares you for His perfect timing. When you embrace this season of life, you will begin to see that your worth is not found in a relationship, but in your relationship with God. As you grow in faith, you’ll learn that you are already complete in Him. Marriage does not define you; your identity in Christ does. "But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint" (Isaiah 40:31).

The world may try to convince you that time is running out, that you are incomplete without a partner, but God’s timing is never late. He is never rushed, and He is never confused about where you are meant to be. Singleness is not about waiting for life to begin—it is about living in the fullness of God’s purpose right now. Trust in His plan and walk in faith, knowing that the right time will come. Your calling, your purpose, and your identity are already secured in Him, and when you trust His timing, everything else will fall into place. Do not let fear or societal pressure dictate your journey. Embrace this time as a season of growth, knowing that you are being prepared for something greater than you could ever imagine. "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens" (Ecclesiastes 3:1).
