PLEASE KINDLY post in the host language ENGLISH 🇺🇸 since it’s the only language that is unable to be translated using our current system.

By honoring the host language, English, you and everyone else can see and read it in their own language! 

Be sure YOUR Post is published in our Encourager by following these simple guidelines.

By following the simple guidelines below, you can be assured that YOUR Praise and Comments will be posted—with YOU becoming an Encouraging Woman! Beginning with…

Your Testimonies!

By following these simple guidelines when you comment on course lesson pages, NRP will consider using your testimony in one of our upcoming published books. We collect testimonies from comments daily to make our books more encouraging and powerful. Why not YOURS?

“And they overcame him [the wicked one] because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the WORD of their TESTIMONY.”

NEW GUIDELINES

Now that we are sharing the English website with all the other wonderful languages, we were excited when God revealed wisdom that we will instill in our guidelines.

PARTNERS. It’s our partners who have invested their tithes and offerings that make Encouraging Women and all of our seven websites possible. Therefore, it’s important that we invest, on behalf of our partner, dedicating each blog post as spiritually nutritious as possible.

Taking advantage of our many "BC" BOOK COURSES—so it’s not snacking, scrolling, or being entertained—but being spiritually nourished and “washed in the water of the Word.”

If your blog post is not connected and focused on ENCOURAGING women with the ability to click to the connecting BOOK COURSE to feast on more, then your blog post will be deleted, and your ability to post, your level will move from an administrator, editor, author, contributor to a user, preventing future posts.

Note: this could be for a temporary period of time or include other stipulations. We are just waiting for more wisdom from God, the Father. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let them ask of God, who gives to all who ask liberally and without reservation.“

"General"

Ministers who are Editors

"And I, if I am lifted up, will draw all people to Myself.” 

Ministers who are editors: Here are important reminders to keep in mind when submitting or selecting Posts for our blogs or web pages:

  1. The Post keeps our RMIEW members and Encourager Readers policies, which are by His truths we are learning here, and what RMIEW believes and stands for.
  2. The Post focuses on the Lord as our Husband—NOT on the earthly husband or ex-husband.
  3. The Post is NOT causing anyone to focus on what could be their "addiction" or "obsession"— which is most often their EH, "earthly husband," their marriage, and/or their restoration.  Watch for repeating EH throughout.
    1. Please avoid abbreviations like HH or EH since it's not the same in every language.
    2. The only exception is #hashtags that mimic the webpage Book Course.
  4. The Post should focus on the LORD: what HE has become or is becoming to the woman, what HE has done for her that day or over the past week, and lifts HIM up.
  5. The way to discern when a Post is excellent is to think of the women who get Encouragers with all the other "junk mail" they get each morning; will this Post set the right frame of mind for them to start their day Encouraged to foster a relationship with Him?
  6. Be sure the Post is not in the form of a devotional, speaking to the Lord directly and falling under the principle in the book of Matthew.
  7. EASY, LIGHT, and encouraging women in every language to know Him personally is what we want to post or use.
  8. The Post must also not be too vague being too discreet, which leaves the reader confused—unable to understand what the person is talking about.
  9. The Posts cannot be used if it is filled with nothing but details, such as the amount something was paid for and specific dates (do not use dates, so it's never outdated when read two to three months later).
  10. The Post cannot contain any advertisements like names of books and authors that are not from RMI or found in the recommended reading list. Movie names or brand names should also not appear in the Post.
  11. Because we focus on relationships and not religion, the Post should contain no Gospel songs.

Preachy Pharisees 

In Chapter 2 of the book How GOD Can Restore, Erin says this about the Pharisees:

"Spiritual arrogance. Over half of those who come to our ministry for help to restore their marriages exhibit spiritual arrogance or self-righteousness. This is what I refer to as a Pharisee spirit. Ladies, this is so dangerous. God showed me, in His Word, that the Lord was only harsh, critical, and opposed to one set of individuals—the Pharisees! And I was one of them!"

Ladies, this Pharisee spirit can also reveal itself when you become preachy either in your praises or especially when you comment on someone else's post or comment.

The Pharisees were a Jewish religious party. They were known for their strict observance of religious practices and ceremonies and adherence to oral laws and traditions. What we want to foster is a RELATIONSHIP and exhibiting this sort of behavior could easily prevent someone from posting praise or commenting—but it also will damage YOU as well.

Please stop and read this Living Lesson, which actually speaks about and is entitled Preachy—especially if your post was not posted or your comment was removed and we sent you this link.


"Speaking to the Lord" in comments and praise reports: Speaking to the Lord is meant to be private lest she fall into the dangerous Pharisee spirit and bring many with her. (My Husband pointed out to me early on to stop this religious behavior that soon takes over.)

“When you pray, you are not to be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. But as for you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door, and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.“ Mathew 6:5-6

"Trigger Words"

Never use RELIGIOUS trigger words:

Jesus or Christ to: Him, Lord, Savior, Precious, Beloved, always capitalized because it's His Name.

“Our Example Is Christ

  • “Our Example Is the Lord
  • “Our Example Is Savior
  • “Our Example Is Our Beloved

Other words that can be changed to encourage a relationship are:

Scripture: Passage, God’s Word, Promises.

Satan, devil: the enemy, the thief.

Christian: Believer.

Covenant: Agreement, Promise.

Sacred: Priceless.

Holy Spirit: His Perfect Love.

Crucified: He Gave His Life For Me.

Worshipped: Adored

Trigger Religious "Christianese" Phrases

"Glory to God" lovingly replace it with a simple and widely understood, "Thank God."

Asking for Prayer

RMI's policy is not to publish a comment or post requesting prayer, because a relationship with our Lord and Savior and Husband and Father is the only thing that will last. If the comment or post has already been posted, we as ministers are requested to remove the content and leave the link to the 🙏 Power of Prayer 🙏 page, which also includes a link to Submit your Prayer Request. The Crisis Corner and Thankfulness Therapy links will also be shared as a preventative to needing prayer🙏.

If you, as Ministers, would like more information to understand why, you will find it in our RMI "Ministering" Manual, Prayer Requests.


Posting Proper Posts

Instructions so we can all work together as one and build proper blog posts with the same standard and layout.

‼️ If you are creating weekly posts, do not start from scratch each time. Instead, make a copy of the post you already created. That is why it is important to set it up correctly the first time. Once the cover, layout, and format are right, each week you will only need to change the main text box and update the new content.

‼️ Please copy and paste it as a checklist to refer back to whenever you are creating posts

https://encouragingwomen.org/guidelines
1. Post Title

Each post needs to have a clear identity. For the Moving Mountains posts, please make sure it shows either Moving Mountains or the initials “MM.” The English title should also be placed in quotation marks. This is very easy to do by asking ChatGPT to improve the title. Simply paste the title in quotation marks so ChatGPT understands that it is the title, then choose the option that fits best and copy and paste it into the post.

https://encouragingwomen.org/guidelines/
2. Layout

2. Please make sure the layout is set to the default layout, not custom. The default layout is important because it shows the themes for the week at the bottom, and we want the ladies to clearly see that they can also follow the devotionals.

https://encouragingwomen.org/guidelines/
3. Categories

The categories are also very important. When there are too many categories, it becomes cluttered and difficult to follow. Please make sure each post is placed in the specific category, especially the Tuesday Travel category when it applies. We want the ladies to know they can expect something there each week and enjoy seeing different cultures, languages, and what the Lord is doing around the world.

If a post has a specific language connected to it, please only use that language category when the content truly includes that language or is clearly geared toward those readers. For example, if there is a Spanish video or Spanish content, then the Spanish category would be helpful. Otherwise, it may be confusing for someone looking for content in that language.

Also, please remove the automatic “Encouraging Women” category if the post already belongs in a more specific category. I did see that there is a Moving Mountains category, which is great. The most important thing is making sure each post is placed in the correct weekly/category location so nothing is missing.

4. Adding Pictures

When adding photos, please add the photo properly as an image, not inside a text box. Placing a photo inside a text box causes the layout to wrap differently and creates formatting issues. The correct way is to add the photo first as an image, and then place the text underneath. I have been correcting this on several pages, so please make note of the corrected version and follow that format moving forward.
