BRAIDED HAIR/PLAITING OF HAIR EXPLAINED

TEXT: EPHESIANS 2:1-3, 1 JOHN 2:15-16 
Key Verse: Nehemiah 8:8- So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.
The reason God gives commandments to us is to instruct us on His righteous ways, to promote righteousness, prevent sin, and protect the righteous from satanic influence. Braiding or plaiting of hair in these passages does not refer to the simple clean and the decent way women weave their hair or use simple thread to tie strands of their hair to keep their hair natural, neat, long and feminine. It rather refers to the unnatural, ostentatious and fashionable hairdo practised by the ungodly, according to the dictates of their god and master, Satan. It is designed to satisfy the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life.
1 John 2:15-16
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world.
The ungodly woman applies many things to her hair for charming beauty and attraction. The following must not be indulged in by believers: perming, Jerry curling, hair attachment, weave-on, barbing of hair, dyeing of hair, use of wool, use of fashionable thread, and worldly styles of hairdressing. The long hair is given to the woman for her glory, while the man's dignity is in maintaining short hair. A woman appearing with trimmed or cut hair is a woman that has lost her natural given glory by her God. 
Many women complain about their hair, claiming it is strong and tough. Thank God, some women, who are determined to keep the word of God, have seen good and simple ways to make their hair soft and natural. Seek counsel. Do not fix ornaments or beads into your hair or that of your children. Some women, in the spirit of worldliness, turn simple threads into attachments. This is an abuse of their righteousness. Artificial hairdo of all kinds makes one a liar against the truth. 
Romans 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their hearts, to dishonour their bodies between themselves:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie...  Make me holy LORD

Thought for the day: Remove anything that will hinder you from making Heaven your body before it is too late.

Song for the day: My body, my spirit my soul all for Jesus (3X), all belong to Jesus

Bible reading: 2 Samuel 19-20; Luke 21:20-38

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
