TOPIC: WE DRESS IN OBEDIENCE TO GOD’S  WORD AND FOR HIS GLORY 

TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 10:31 
31. Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 

KEY VERSE: 1 PETER 1:14-As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to your former lusts in your ignorance:

We dress in obedience to the word of God. As obedient children, as obedient ministers, leaders, in the holiness ministry like this; don't fashion yourself like the unbelievers like the way you were dressing before born again. There should be a change now. 

People are copying from you. How are you then leading people to holiness, to perfection in life? Remember that the soul, body and spirit are connected together. Dressing is very, very important. And so, if you are obedient to the word of God, you will dress as a holy minister. 

We dress to project and reflect the glory of God. In all that you do, do it to the glory of God. When you are going to the market to buy your clothes, when you are dressing to come out, even before your wife and your children; is it to the glory of God or is it in pride? That is very important. 

How would Jesus dress? Do I look like him? How would Jesus look if He is to appear before us? He will look glorious and magnificent! Are you glorious? Are you smart? Are you something to be admired with what you are dressing? I mean in a godly way!

Some of you here are wearing slippers and your trousers are nothing to write home about. Some of you have not even ironed your clothes. You have many reasons to give.  Are they acceptable? Although some of these things may not be sinful, but still, appropriate and godly dressing should be seen in your life.

We dress for beauty and glory. Your glory as a pastor is in your dressing. In Exodus 28:2-And thou shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty. For glory and for beauty! 

A holy minister should look glorious, beautiful, handsome and presentable in your dressing. So, the priests, Aaron and others dressed distinctively that others will copy and identify them so.

Thought for the day: Obedience to the word of God on holy dressing will bring great blessings and glory in your life 

Song for the day: I surrender all

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 64-66

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...
