TOPIC: ARTICLES FOR BEAUTY CONDEMNED IN SCRIPTURES

TEXT: NUMBERS 31:49-51 

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 11tH

Key verse: Zephaniah 1:8 “And it shall come to pass in the day of the LORD’s sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king’s children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel”
Christians are holy people worshipping the holy God. Those who have not attained this standard are regarded as unholy Christians. Which category do you belong to? Unholy Christians lack complete knowledge of the word of God and are full of arguments. The holy ones understand God’s demands and do all to comply with them. They are conscious of the coming of the Lord and moderate their lifestyle; not willing to offend God. In line with God’s warning against Christians exposing their nakedness through ungodly dressing and adornment which give rise to lust and immorality in society, they avoid dressing according to the custom or style of the world which is against the modesty required by the scripture.
The following articles for artificial beauty are condemned by the scripture: Jewels of gold, chains, bracelets, rings, including wedding rings, nose rings, earrings, and tablets. Fixing them is unclean regardless of their costs. Besides, who asked you to perforate your ears? Other evil practices include bleaching, fixing false nails, false hair, eyelashes, painting lips, eyebrows, nails, and face, adding wool to make your hair look big, keeping long nails, wearing perforated lace and see-through dresses, tight-fitting dresses or body hug and women wearing trousers. 
Zephaniah 1:8 “And it shall come to pass in the day of the LORD’s sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king’s children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel”. Repent and change your garments from strange ones. If you say there are women's trousers, does it mean there are men’s head ties or brassier? Mothers should avoid putting ungodly attires on their children in the quest to make them beautiful. Don’t perforate their ears to fix earrings on them. Don’t bleach their skin or fix wool on their hair; they are abomination in the sight of God.

Thought for the day: Repent and change your strange garments to godly ones

Song for the day: Purify me, sanctify me, purify me, O Lord

Bible reading for the day: Lamentations 3-5; Hebrews 8

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...
