TOPIC: HEAD COVERING IN THE CHURCH. WEDNESDAY AUGUST 23
TEXT: 1 Corinthians 11:4-7
KEY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 11:10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
1 Corinthians 11:13-15.
13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
It is ungodly for a woman to be in the presence of God in worship without a head covering, just as it is ungodly for a man to be in the presence of God in worship with a covering on his head. The covering refers to here is not the hair on her head but a scarf, a head tie or hat. The head tie or hat must be the void of fashion or worldliness. It must be befitting of a holy woman. Head covering is only during worship, when a woman is praying or prophesying.
Because Christ is the head of the man, during worship (that is, praying, prophesying, preaching and teaching of God’s word), the man should leave his head bare without covering it with a piece of cloth, cap or hat. His bare head should be seen. It is a physical symbolism of the presence and glory of Christ the Head, Leader and Saviour. During this period also, the women should cover their heads with a material head covering to show in a physical sense that man is not in headship and his glory should be covered at such moment for man is the head of the woman and the woman is the glory of the man. To do otherwise as practiced in some places of worship is contrary to the scripture. However, the head covering by woman is not a thing to be done at all times and in every place. It is observed only during formal sessions of worship to God and in her prayers to God. The long hair given to her is for her glory and does not require constant covering except during worship period.
Thought for the day: Dress appropriately to honour God in worship.
Song for the day: Thou art worthy O Lord … To receive glory, honour and power
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 119:105-176; 1Corinthians 5

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

VIRTUOUS WOMEN FOR END TIME REVIVAL SATURDAY APRIL 29 TEXT: John 4: 39-42 Key Verse: “And Ruth said, Entreat 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” Ruth 1: 16 When the Lord shall come He shall gather the wheat but the tares shall be cut down and cast into the lake of fire, God is looking for some wheat to use.
