TOPIC:    ACCEPTABLE DRESS CODE FOR HOLY WOMEN.  MONDAY AUGUST 14
TEXT:       Matthew 5:14-16
KEY VERSE: “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31.  

The believer must not dress wild, strange, or foolish, claiming it is because she is holy. She must be decent, clean, neat and good looking. Her dressing must be satisfactory to the holiness community who should praise God for her. The following should guide her dressing.

  1. Her breast region should be properly covered.
  2. The neck of her blouse or gown must be properly raised so that her back and breast regions are not unduly exposed.
  3. The sleeves of her blouse or gown must extend at least to her elbow, for short sleeves.
  4. Her blouse should have enough allowance in the body and should be long           enough not to expose the bare body on bending position.
  5. The gown likewise must have enough allowance in the body and should reach down beyond the calf region of the leg.
  6. The skirt also must have enough allowance on the body and must reach below the calf or three-quarters region of the leg.
  7. The calf region of a woman in wrapper, skirt or gown must not be seen in            her sitting position, the must not be pulled back exposing the region between the calf and knee.
  8. If she is putting on a sleeveless dress, it must be on top of an inner dress with sleeves.
  9. A woman who is putting on a suit must make sure her dress obeys these rules.
  10. Some kinds of see-through clothes are indecent to use, even with inner lining; the inner linings are clearly seen beyond the clothes.
  11. This makes a bad impression to the viewers. However, some blend well with the inner lining as one cloth. Laces with broad holes should be avoided as they make a bad impression on the body even with inner lining. It is indecent also to see some women revealed by light as not wearing under wear at all or putting on too short under wear.
  12. Women must take heed to the scripture and avoid masculine dresses. Trousers, slacks, pants and masculine shirts should be rejected by the women.
  13. The buttons of the woman's blouse, gown or skirts must be given special attention in design and fixture not to allow exposure of her breast, stomach and underwear.
  14. Women should avoid splits or slits on their skirts gowns.
  15. There are some dresses which the moral society allows both men and women to use; such is called unisex. These include polo and T-shirts. Christian women have the liberty to use them, if they are befitting and do not affect godliness in appearance.

Note that what the woman puts on as underwear which is not seen with the eyes of the people around her does not condemn her. Let not the woman fill guilty for what she uses as underwear.

Thought for the day:    Dress holy to the glory of God.
Song for the day: Create in me a clean heart O Lord.
Bible reading for the day: Psalm 99-102; Romans 13

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be

For taking your time to study remain blessed. April Monday 27th TOPIC: TESTIMONY OF RESTITUTION OF FALSIFIED RECORDS by Sis Bosede Ogwurike TEXT: 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 KEY VERSE: Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. After accepting the Lord Jesus as my Lord and personal Saviour as a young girl I so much enjoyed the Lord, but at a particular time in my life I entangled myself with so many sins: fornication, abortions, misconduct in two of my undergraduate examination papers, falsification of age, falsification of results in my undergraduate research project and other sins that later required restitution. This created a big vacuum in my life. I no longer enjoyed the presence of God as before and sometimes when I prayed for restoration and revival, I would hear a voice clearly in my spirit saying, “Go and report yourself.” This I did not
