Women: Jezebel spirit vs. Ruth spirit:

The Jezebel Spirit

1. **She rules her husband**:
**1 Kings 21:25**: “But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the LORD, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.”

2. **She loves to manipulate**:
**1 Kings 21:7**: “And Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, and eat bread, and let thine heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.”

3. **She falsely accuses the godly**:
**1 Kings 21:10**: “And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.”

4. **She uses lust to control**:
**2 Kings 9:22**: “And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?”

5. **She claims to be religious**:
**Revelation 2:20**: “Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.”

6. **She refuses to accept guilt**:
**2 Kings 9:30**: “And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a window.”

7. **She is ungrateful to God**:
**1 Kings 18:4**: “For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD, that Obadiah took an hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.”

The Ruth Spirit

1. **She submits to her husband**:
**Ruth 3:5**: “And she said unto her, All that thou sayest unto me I will do.”

2. **She loves to serve others**:
**Ruth 2:2**: “And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and glean ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall find grace. And she said unto her, Go, my daughter.”

3. **She honors God’s leaders**:
**Ruth 2:10**: “Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him, Why have I found grace in thine eyes, that thou shouldest take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger?”

4. **She lives modestly and pure**:
**Ruth 3:11**: “And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to thee all that thou requirest: for all the city of my people doth know that thou art a virtuous woman.”

5. **She walks with the Lord**:
**Ruth 1:16**: “And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God.”

6. **She is humble & repentant**:
**Ruth 2:13**: “Then she said, Let me find favour in thy sight, my lord; for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken friendly unto thine handmaid, though I be not like unto one of thine handmaidens.”

7. **She is grateful to God**:
**Ruth 4:14**: “And the women said unto Naomi, Blessed be the LORD, which hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous in Israel.”
