OPEN HEAVEN 7 JUNE 2019 READ: 2 Samuel 11:2-4 (KJV)
2. And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house; and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
3. And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?
4. And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness; and she returned unto her house.

Today’s Message
Nakedness refers to the absence of clothing, and it also refers to the wearing of only underwear.
It simply means being inadequately or inappropriately dressed. To be naked is to be bare, lightly dressed or to wear skimpy, revealing or insufficient clothing.
These days, people are obsessed with showing off their wealthy through fashion. As heroes and mentors to many, the rich and famous tends to influence a lot of people to follow their footsteps. Also Read – Open Heavens 6 June 2019
Unfortunately, this platform is being used to promote nudity in fashion. If you look at the world today, a greater percentage of fashion styles reflect nakedness, particularly in western countries.
If the lady’s cleavage is not exposed, the dress is viewed as old-fashioned. If the skirt is not short, such that the lady can’t sit down comfortably without having to cross their legs or continually draw down her skirt to cover her laps, it is not fashionable.
It is however sad that instead of the world to look into the Church for healthy and sensible fashion inspiration, the Church is copying the world, which is why the indecent and provocative dress is commonplace in the Church of God today.
You will go to some churches and wonder whether you are in a brothel. Christ has called us to walk in love, so if you know that you dress seductively and this could cause someone to stumble in lust, you better have a rethink.
What is your motive if you said you want to dress to kill? If you want to make heaven, you must judge your motives and actions by the word of God and made necessary adjustment.
The essence of clothing, first and foremost is to cover human nakedness. God is the first one who designed and provided clothes, and His primary purpose is to cover the nakedness of Adam and Eve after they attempted to sew fig leave together as aprons to cover their nakedness (Genesis 3:21, Genesis 3:7).
So many people today are wearing fig leave and calling them clothes. For any clothing to be appropriate for a child of God, whether male or female, it must meet the standard that God set in the beginning by adequately covering human nakedness.
Moreover, we are Christ ambassadors; an ambassador does not do anything that we tarnish the image of the country he or she represents.
As a matter of fact, the ambassador positively projects the cultural heritage of his or her country always.
The culture of the kingdom we belong to is holiness, righteousness and the fear of God, and we must project it in this world of sin and godlessness.
Furthermore, we have the responsibility of making our body suitable for the Holy Spirit to dwell in (1 Corinthians 3:16).
As the temple of God, defiling your body through nudity has consequences (1 Corinthians 3:17). Henceforth, dress like a worthy ambassador of God’s kingdom.
OPEN HEAVEN 7 JUNE 2019 PRAYER POINT: Father please expel nudity and destroy immorality in Your Church, in Jesus’ Name.

OPEN HEAVEN 7 JUNE 2019 HYMNAL:
Hymn 3 – When we walk with the Lord1. When we walk with the Lord,
In the light of His word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.
CHORUS:
Trust and obey!
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
2. Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt nor a fear,
Not a sigh nor a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.
CHORUS:
Trust and obey!
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
3. Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief nor a loss,
Nor a frown nor a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.
CHORUS:
Trust and obey!
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
4. But we never can prove
The delights of His love,
Until all on the altar we lay,
For the favour He shows
And the joy He bestows
Are for them who will trust and obey.
CHORUS:
Trust and obey!
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
5. Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way,
What He says we will do,
Where He sends we will go,
Never fear, only trust and obey.
CHORUS:
Trust and obey!
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
