MOUNTAIN TOP LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY

God is the first fashion designer or dress maker. He made clothes for Adam and Eve to cover their nakedness after they had been chased out of the Garden of Eden. One of the reasons man wears clothes therefore is to cover his nakedness. In our society today, many of our youths and adults dress in several ways that defy the original purpose of God in cloth wearing. Nowadays, it is hard to distinguish Christians from non-Christians in their dressing.

In some Pentecostal churches, their young ladies dress like prostitutes and young men dress like area boys. Males and females parade themselves with anti-scriptural types of dressing and life styles such as mini-skirts, piercing of ears, sagging, armless blouses and all kinds of horrible dresses that are not Christ-like or godly. As Christians, we must be conscious of how we dress. Our dressing can depict whether we are responsible youths or not.

The way we dress is the way we are going to be addressed. A Christian is expected to be modest in his or her dressing. A Christian should not dress to “kill” or make another human being to fall into sin. Are you a tailor or fashion designer, you are equally guilty before God if you make dresses that are revealing, suggestive and provocative: mini-skirts, blouses that expose the breasts and cleavages of a woman, transparent dresses and others that are capable of making the opposite sex to fall.

The Bible says that we should be holy as our God and Father is holy. As Christians, pleasing God in every area of life should be our main goal. Beloved, do you please God in your dressing? Do you ask yourself whether what you wear is moderate and pleasing to God or not? Do you care whether your dressing will help to build the faith of others or destroy it, make them stand or fall?

Through ungodly dressing, many people have opened doorways for demons and provided ladders for evil spirits to invade their lives. All what some ladies need to do to be free from demonic torments and harassments is to obey God in the area of their dressing. The Bible enjoins us to examine our ways and see if we are still in faith. Do not make fashion your modern god. Some people’s preoccupation is buying everything in vogue in the name of fashion.

Their focus is to spend money on clothes, perfumes, bags, shoes and so on. They do this with sybaritic indulgence, ignoring important spiritual matters like payment of their tithe and giving their first fruits and offerings. Beloved, the truth is that those who wear seductive dresses that cause others to sin as well as those who have turned fashion to an idol are both guilty before God.

Take note of the points that God wants modesty or moderation in all we do (including our dressing) and that we should always dress to please God, not ourselves, others or the enemy. Our dressing should show that we are complying with God’s injunctions on holiness and moderation as well as loving our neighbour as ourselves. I pray that your dress ethics will win you a place in heaven and not in hell, in Jesus’ name.

O TO BE LIKE THEE

1. O to be like Thee! Blessed Redeemer,
This is my constant longing and prayer;
Gladly I’ll forfeit all of earth’s treasures,
Jesus Thy perfect likeness to wear.

Chorus
O to be like Thee! O to be like Thee,
Blessed Redeemer, pure as Thou art!
Come in Thy sweetness, come in Thy fullness;
Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart.

2. O to be like Thee! Full of compassion,
Loving, forgiving, tender and kind;
Helping the helpless, cheering the fainting,
Seeking the wandering sinner to find.

3. O to be like Thee! Lowly in spirit,
Holy and harmless, patient and brave;
Meekly enduring cruel reproaches,
Willing to suffer others to save.

4. O to be like Thee! Lord, I am coming
Now to receive th’anointing divine;
All that I am and have I am bringing,
Lord, from this moment all shall be Thine.

5. O to be like Thee! While I am pleading,
Pour out Thy Spirit, fill with Thy love;
Make me a temple meet for Thy dwelling,
Fit me for life and heaven above.
– Thomas O. Chisholm
