DISCIPLINE IN BODILY DRESSING AND ADORNMENT

God bless you for taking your time to study.

DISCIPLINE IN BODILY DRESSING AND ADORNMENT

TEXT: REVELATION 17: 1-4 

THURSDAY JANURY 5th 

Key Verse: Proverbs 7: 10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtle of heart.
This study is on outward dressing of believers and Christian leaders. Ensure you do not wear any cloth that is sub-standard. Discipline yourself in your outward appearance. The scriptures have spoken a lot against the use of jewellery; rings, chains, earrings, necklace and so forth. Satan has turned to putting jewels and rings on clothes and clothing materials these days. Do you know that precious stones and dazzling clothes were the dressing of the harlot in our scriptural text today? It makes the cloth shine like stars. Since they are not heavenly stars, their glory in human dressing and adornment is a disturbance to our environment. Remove those stones. Discipline yourself that no single shining stone will be on your clothes. Determine to be natural. Destroy the shining clothes you had before you knew Jesus, not minding the cost. Do not keep them in your box because they can eventually cause backsliding. In the same way, Christian men should avoid tight-fitting trousers, tight-fitting T-shirts and body hugs, public use of knickers, chains, rings and jewellery. Men should avoid punk hair, twisted hair and all ungodly hairstyles, not befitting of godliness.   
Remove the reproach of Egypt from off your life. You might have snapped some pictures when you were a sinner adorned like the daughter of Satan and hung round your house. Now that you are a Christian, remove them out of your house. Let people see newness in your life. If any man is in Christ, he is a new creature, old things are passed away. If any man’s house has become Christ’s, it is a new house. Gather those things; properties, wrong clothes and pictures and remove them out of your house. This is Christian discipline to ensure you get to heaven. If you do not want to fall, nothing should draw your mind back to yesterday. You are moving forward; you have not yet attained but you want to attain the heavenly calling in Christ Jesus. You should be serious about it. Woman, you say you are born again but your skirts have not gone down well. They are still flying. Amend them or change them.

Thought for the day Ensure that your appearance at all time befits godliness

Song for the day My life shall be a testimony…

Bible reading for the day: Genesis 12-14; Matthew 5:1-26

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
