TOPIC: EXEMPLARY DRESSING OF HOLY MINISTERS

TEXT: 1 TIMOTHY 4:11-13 
11. These things command and teach.
12. Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
13. Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 

KEY VERSE: PHILIPPIANS 4:9: Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

That which you have been seeing! This is why this training is very important. You are a pastor, a coordinator or a chapter leader. There are things that people look at you for; apparently, outwardly, and they copy. And most of this has to do with how you look; your dressing and appearance. 

Do you look holy? Do you look glorious? Do you look presentable? Do you look as somebody they can be proud of? My pastor looks wonderful! In fact, sometimes people would like to snap you and post it out. “This is my pastor”; in pride and in praise. How do you look? Do you copy? Some of you know that you do not dress well. You look too casual when you dress. You look shabby and dirty. You are not presentable. 

How will you carry this lifestyle to your members as a leader? Some may not consider how you look inward; whether a pastor is holy or not. What do you give out to them? That's why this scripture is very important. Are you copying or emulating? Are you watching? 

Even in speech, you see some people speaking like W. F. Kumuyi. How many of us are learning from our International Director in the manner he presents himself? The way he walks and dresses. I mean, from up to down. How do you look as a minister, as a holy minister? 

Why are you expected to look like Jesus? To look like a minister that is worth his calling in dressing? There are things that words may not say, but pictures and appearance in dressing will convey all. How do you look that people will say, ‘this is indeed a minister’?

Some will say a bad-looking minister is a reproach. From your dressing, you will be addressed. When you dress, will you be addressed as a holy minister or will you be addressed as a poor, reproachable minister? 

Thought for the day: Be an example of holy and glorious dressing

Song for the day: Is your life a channel of blessing?

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 25-28

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...

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
