TOPIC: CLARIFICATIONS ON USE OF FACIAL POWDER     
OCTOBER Thursday 18th
TEXT: Isaiah 3: 16-24
KEY VERSE: And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do?  Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life. Jeremiah 4: 30
QUESTION: I heard from some people that the use of powder is not a sin but I told them it is a sin. Please tell us something about it in the bible, because some of us that have babies or children we still use powder for them. Even when we have rashes we still use them. I want to know if it is a sin to use powder.
ANSWER: To use powder on your child’s body to arrest heat or any other thing is not wrong. To use powder on your own body, maybe medicated, while at home, to arrest heat is not wrong. But don’t paint your face with powder. Don’t paint your face with powder to seek for beauty. Those who do such painting do so for a purpose, to achieve artificial beauty, to appear more attractive to men. It is part of the dressing of a harlot.
The aim of this painting is to arrive at smooth face, beautiful face and attractive appearance. That is wickedness! It is evil. The idea is to smoothen your face, since to you, it is not properly made smooth enough by the Creator! It is a subtle accusation against your Maker.  You may say, my own is not like that, my own is because I sweat a lot. Are you the only person God made in this world? What about all others who sweat? Must we go on powder? No. Those who paint their faces with powder desire to achieve beauty. Avoid that in your life as a Christian.
Thought for the day: God loves natural beauty and appearance
Song for the day: Holiness is the beauty of the believer
Bible reading for the day:
Isaiah 65-66; 2 Thessalonians 1.

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...
  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
