A good christian man should care about others more than he cares about himself. Look at the way he treats her family and her friends. If he’s not close with his family and doesn’t have any close friends, that’s probably a red flag. Some questions to ask yourself: Does [he] care about the needy? Does [he] go out and volunteer where it’s needed? Is he willing to give up the shirt off his back for someone in need? These are important characteristics to consider when looking for a man to spend your life with.
7. Ambitious.
Seek a good christian man who has confidence in his skills, and uses them to pursue his dreams. Not only should this man seek to fulfill his God-given calling, but he should also empower his wife to pursue hers. Godly women should seek a man who is passionate about life, his calling, and his marriage. Don’t get caught in a relationship with a man who is lazy.
8. Forgiving.
Don’t reach for a man who is unlikely to forgive. The last thing any women of God want’s is to be in a relationship with someone who holds resentment for mistakes, issues, and misunderstandings. A forgiving man is a godly man. Seek a man who showcases the same love and grace as Jesus.
9. Loving.
1 John 4:8 says, “But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.” We can conclude that any man who truly loves God, is a man who loves without limitations. Women need to look for someone who is willing to showcase love no matter the circumstance. You don’t want to get caught in a relationship with someone who acts like showing love is worse than pulling teeth.
10. A good reputation.
Proverbs 22:1 states, “A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, and favor is better than silver or gold.” And while many people might not necessarily agree, I believe any God-fearing woman should desire to seek a good christian man whose reputation is always kept under control. Don’t get me wrong. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but joining a man whose reputation has fallen for a reason is something you should think twice about before accepting. Seek to be with a man who gets raving compliments when his name is brought up mid-conversation.
This list is a great foundation when you’re wondering what to look for in a christian man. Is he loving, forgiving, and ambitious? Has he demonstrated selflessness, prayerfulness, and trustworthiness? Does he have a good reputation and is he calm and collective in stressful situations? Is he truly a good decision maker and able to be a strong leader for a family? Is he spiritually fit, and is this fitness due to his own desire to have a living relationships with Jesus? These qualities point to a good christian man, and when they’re lacking, they can alert you to pause and consider whether a man is ready for marriage. Of course no one is perfect, but you want a man who is ready and has already developed strong character before stepping into the responsibility of a marriage. On the same note, if you’re wondering how to attract a man, developing many of these characteristics in yourself is important, too. A good christian man will be looking for a lady who is loving, forgiving, and trustworthy. He will want a woman who is prayerful and spiritually fit. If he wants his woman to have developed many of these characteristics in herself, this can even indicate how important the qualities are to develop in himself, as well.
