TOPIC: WE DRESS TO COVER, PROTECT AND HONOR OUR BODIES

TEXT: EXODUS 22:26-27

KEY VERSE: EXODUS 20:26-Neither shalt thou go up by steps into mine altar, that thy nakedness be not discovered thereon.

We dress to cover our nakedness. In Exodus Chapter 20, after the Ten Commandments have been given, what followed afterwards was the command on dressing. Do not let your nakedness be discovered. You are a pastor or a minister in Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide; whether at home or anywhere, where there are other people, apart from your wife, is your nakedness seen? Is it discovered? This you have to ask yourself.
Let not your nakedness be seen in your dressing, even in your own house, if you are not alone with your wife. Your nakedness should not be seen.

We dress to protect our body. Why do you put on clothes? It is to protect your body or the members of your body. You put on some clothes to protect your body from bad weather, insects and some things that would have destroyed it. God also has made the human body to be protected. That's the reason why He made or gave the commandment for clothes or garments to be put upon the body. 

We dress to honour our body. In 1 Corinthians 3:17, 6:19, your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and should not be defiled. Thus, what are you putting upon that temple? If the Holy Spirit is to speak to you, will He rebuke you or correct you with what you are dressing? Will you be acceptable? Will the Holy Spirit say, “Yes, what you are wearing is pleasing unto Me? That which you put upon that which God has built, which is the temple of God, should be honorable. 

We dress as Christians to show that we are not under traditions of men. There are Christians or ministers that argue, “I am from this place and my people dress this way. If I don't dress like that, I won't be identified with them”. Then you are not yet a holy minister. You have not come out from amongst them. You must show that you are not under the tradition of men but under the tradition of God.

Thought for the day: Cover your nakedness to protect and honor your body. 

Song for the day: I am the clay, You are the Potter, Lord mold me as You want

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 37-39

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...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
