Encouragement for Christian Sisters

Greetings sisters! How was your day today?  We have been very busy, praise God the word is going out!  Today was something else out on the streets....VERY wicked people, maybe I'll share tomorrow or something but today I'm tired of thinking about this dark world.  I thought tonight I'd share something nice:-) There is a sister in the Lord who has been blessed with a tremendous skill of sewing and does excellent work. She worked diligently with me to design a custom apron pattern so I can wear them out on the streets witnessing and have full coverage when the wind is blowing.   She created her own patterns from a sketch and ideas I sent and after a bit of discussion she came up with exactly what I was looking for. I wanted something with pleats at the top, long, almost to my knees and flared outward and she took care of it all.  I also ordered a custom sewn skirt. She is a single sister with an online sewing shop.  She just recently started a brand new shop

Good afternoon sisters. I pray your day is going well and that you are focused on our Savior and not the troubles at hand.  Don't let satan steal that peace and joy that is granted to us if we surrender ourselves to follow Christ.  Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up. James 4:10 You saw the title of this post.  Brother Jim suggested I write it because it's a big topic and many die on it, even men.  Not too long ago brother Jim was talking to a man who said he was seeking truth, left man made religion and wanted to follow Christ in all ways.  Throughout a very long conversation this man agreed with the scriptures brother Jim was showing him.  There was much agreement on all that God's word says until it got to clothing of which he did not agree with what God's word says and went on his way. Turns out he works for a company that makes extremely unbiblical clothing for both men and women. We've noticed over the years that

Greetings sisters in Christ! I hope your day is joyous in the Lord, giving Him thanks and glory!  For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the  Lord  of hosts. Malachi 1:11  I'm really enjoying this time here to catch up on all the things we've been wanting to do and homestead projects.   I dug out my sewing machine and sewed Jim some tunics....the easy way:-)  All I do is take one of his shirts and add an extension on the bottom.  The extension is the bottom of another shirt that we got on sale at the thrift store.  No the colors don't match but that's whats so great about my husband....he doesn't care and has taught me to be the same way.  It's clothing to cover our body and we should be thankful for it. You could add extensions fro

Greetings sisters in Christ! As per God's Word, His daughters are to dress in long, loose robe type garments that are unadorned.  Here's a link that takes you to many teaching articles on our teaching blog, for godly women. http://spiritandtruthdiscernment.blogspot.com/search/label/WOMEN We've been asked if long maxi skirts could be biblical so this is just a short post to answer that question. The term 'maxi skirt' has a few different meanings to it but this post is in reference to the skirts that are of a knit fabric with stretch.  The reason the question was asked is because many of them are very immodest so you have to be careful what kind you buy.  Oftentimes they are very form fit from the waist to the knees then flow outward by the feet so the only way those would be biblical would be if you wore a very long shirt to cover the form fit area down to the kness.  There are, however, others on the market that are very loose and flowing with a generous amou

Greetings sisters in Christ! How is your day going?  Are you thanking our Savior for the precious gift given to us, the hope of eternal life, if we endure though this life as faithful obedient saints? 51  Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52  In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53  For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54  So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55  O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 56  The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 57  But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58  Therefore, my bel

Greetings sisters in Christ, Below you will find our detailed teaching on dress for Christian women.  I pray it blesses you. ******************************* Does God’s Word teach women how to dress to fully honor and glorify Him? It surely does as we will see in a moment.  Before we go into the details of how God wants his ladies to dress, let us remember why we have to wear clothes in the first place.  Please click   HERE  to read about that, then continue on with this post.  (Also we will post a link to an article for men below)  1 Timothy 2:-10    In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;  But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. The greek word for modest is kosmios and the definition is:  ‘ orderly, of good behavior’ . The greek word for ‘apparel’ is  katastole .  1.      a lowering, letting down, down (kata)
