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

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
