Goodseed Daily Devotional 18th April 2024
TOPIC: DOES YOUR STYLE OF DRESSING REFLECT CHRIST?
SCRIPTURE: And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.
Exodus 28:2
In biblical times, there seemed to be a distinct dressing style for the Egyptians and a different dressing style for the Hebrews.
Similarly, there is a worldly style of dressing and also a Christian way of dressing.
Moses, though a Hebrew, was addressed as an Egyptian, possibly because of the way he was dressed (Exodus 2:19). In the same manner, when a Christian is dressed in worldly fashion, he or she would be addressed as a worldly person.
The truth is, the fashion of our generation is sponsored by the demonic spirit of the age to lead people into eternal damnation.
Each time you go out to buy clothes, especially as a lady, the ones you can see in the market are those that leave the cleavages of the chest exposed. Even when you tell a tailor to make a dress for you, he or she would make the one that would leave the shoulders and the chest bare.
There are many clothes and dresses my wife have rejected both from people and from her tailor because of the nature of the dress. Sometimes she has to take the dress back to the tailor to make necessary adjustments so the dress can befit her status as a daughter of Zion.
Beloved, what are you advertising by your way of dressing, carnality or spirituality? Think about it! Dont just wear it because every body wears it. You are a child of God. You are Royalty. Your body is a Temple and should be treated with sacredness and respect.
Refuse to dress like the people of the world. Don’t dress to show the sensitive parts of your body.
Dress with decency and with decorum. Dress for glory and beauty. You are royalty (Ex. 28:2).
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace not to dress indecently. Help me to dress with decency and decorum, both for glory and for beauty, in Jesus’ Name.
