QUESTION AND ANSWER SERIES (Hair Covering By Women In The Church)           
TEXT: 1 Corinthians 11: 1-16
KEY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 11:13 “Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?”
QUESTION: Is it compulsory for a woman to always cover her hair, even while at home or walking in the street, even though you plait your hair. Maybe like me, ordinary days I always cover my hair, I cover my hair everywhere I am going to. So they are saying that it is not holiness because even air does not go through my hair and that even when I plait it I should open my hair and I should only be covering it in the church.
ANSWER: A woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered, dishonoreth her head. So it was the same as shaving so if a woman will not cover head praying or prophesying let her shave it, but if it is a shame for a woman to have her hair shaven or shown. The emphasis here is on worship, prayer is in the church service. God says, My house shall be called the house of prayer. So when you are praying have something to cover your hair as a woman as you are covered now. Those people who do not cover their head are disobedient to the word of God and they are not going to heaven because the disobedient do not go to heaven. So you cover your head when you are in worship, you cover your head when you are praying in church, at home or anywhere you are praying or prophesying. 
But aside from this you have liberty to do what you want to do, either to cover your head or to leave it open because there is no rule of God guiding that. It is what you choose to do. You cannot cover it all the time, you are free to leave it open in the street in the market, at your school but as long as you dress neatly and decently in righteousness and holiness. You are free to leave it because the Bible says the long hair is given to the woman for a covering, you need not always cover with a vale while not in prayer, since as you are going about your hair is a covering for you. You have long hair that covers your head so you are free to leave it open in your normal business. But what if you choose to still cover it? It is your choice. The law of God does not condemn you for covering it. No it does not condemn you but it has only treated you in prayer and in the house of God in prophesying and in prayer but for your normal life, the choice is yours.  Do you want to have it covered all the time choose. In fact when you are sleeping do you want to have I covered? But I think the medical people should advice you too. Whether you are covering or not covering it is not a transgression of God outside the church or outside prayer.
Thought for the day: While not praying or prophesying you have liberty either to cover your head or to leave it open
Song for the day: Jesus loves me, He died for me, nobody loves me like Jesus…
Bible reading for the day:
Ezekiel 38-39; 1 Peter 4

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...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
