Topic: The Garment of an Harlot
Text: Genesis 38
Key text: Genesis 38:15 When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face.
Discussion: It is common to hear people saying, "The way you dress, you will be addressed" but this is fast losing its meaning, people now don't care the way they are addressed, young people now find it convenient to dress indecently with the pretense "It doesn't matter".
Dear reader, the way you dress really matters, the reason why rape, and sexual assault is on the rise these days is because of the rise in indecent dressing, which has sent an immoral message, which resulted in the eventual rape.
Apart from the rape consequence, there are other consequences, but the Greatest consequence is that of God's anger, the word of God teaches us to cover our nakedness, hence, we should not expose our nakedness, in disguise of fashion or beauty. Let your nakedness be properly covered.
Judah fell into the trap of Tamar's seductive dressing, what a lesson should we learn? It is important to know that sinners will continue to wax worse and worse, seducing, deceiving and been deceived of Satan lest they be saved, it is therefore important, to keep thyself pure against the indecency of the sinner, flee from all appearance of evil, lest you are caught up in the Devil's trap.
Salvation is the first step towards from from sin, if you are not free from Sin then you need Jesus, Let Jesus come into your heart.
Challenge: How do you dress: to please God or to seduce men?
Prayer: Let the whole of my Life please you.
