HEAD COVERING DURING WORSHIP

God's blessings shall follow you, for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: HEAD COVERING DURING WORSHIP 
TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 
11:3-16 

THURSDAY NOVEMBER 30TH

Key verse: 1 Peter 3: 3 "Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or putting on of apparel.” 
Christ is the Head of the man and man is the image and glory of God. The man is the head of the woman and the woman is his glory. During worship: prayer, prophesying, or preaching, the man should not cover his head. During this formal period, Christ is the One in headship and God's glory is to be seen. If a man covers his head at this period it shows he has covered the headship of Christ and the glory of God. During this formal period, man is not in focus, he is not in headship and the glory is not his but God's, hence his headship and glory are to be covered. 
This is visibly done by the veil on the woman's head. Angels who minister to the saints during worship expect submission to this rule by Christ's followers. Outside this formal period, the wearing of any kind of veil by man is not an offence as long as it befits a believer and does not transgress the law of decency. Similarly, outside this formal period, the woman is n o t under obligation to be veiled. This is because her long hair "Is a glory to her for her hair is given her for a covering." 
Covering her head with a veil is only required during worship, after which she is at liberty to leave her head uncovered by a veil. Her hair could be seen on her to her glory in her normal living. Her hairdo must be decent and befitting to a believer. She must avoid hairdo that changes her hair from the natural to unnatural. That will be lying against the truth and grieving the Holy Spirit. She must not plait gold or items of beauty and fashion into her hair. She should avoid the use of jewelry and dressing for show. 

Thought for the day: Covering with a veil by women is only required during worship activities.

Song for the day: I am married to Jesus, Satan leave me alone

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 43-44; 2 Peter 2

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...
