  • Hey beautiful people ! Welcome to my first CZcams video! I will be sharing faith/motivational talks, and lifestyle videos on my channel. I felt led to share my testimony on how God changed my appearance throughout the years and how He has helped me on my modesty journey. I would love to hear some of your stories in the comment section on your modesty journey. I hope you were blessed by this video!
    1 Peter 3:3-4
    3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.
    4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight

      Yess I watched a documentary on how other nations pray to their gods and offer makeup/ hair/ and nail salon products as a sacrifice to their gods and then offer their services to us… they won’t admit it verbatim but the process it goes through is pretty obvious that’s what they’re doing .

      Just recently I heard the Lord tell me to burn all my pants and get rid of my jewelry and stop wearing makeup. I use to be one that just had to get my nails done. I had to color my hair but the Holy Spirit has been changing me from the inside out and I’m so grateful for it. Every time I asked the Lord why, He responded with one word-vanity. I don’t condemn anyone that does, but I am so grateful that I’m not alone. That there are other women in which God is speaking to to stripe themselves from anything that was taking away His glory regarding our temple.

This is really overwhelming for me because all I want to do is get closer to God. And with mixed fiber clothing its not like I can just get rid of all my clothes??? I feel like im overthinking everything i do. Can you give me some advice? Thank u so much love!! 💕

      @@kuhlestwayi7586 hey ! Thanks for taking the time to read my comment. I'll try to explain the best as I can .( Sorry if my english is not good , I'm not a native speaker) . Human hair extentions are usually made from third world countries like India and that same hair is being collected unethically, by forcefully cutting the hair off from women . There is a huge business, currently, of human hair extensions and wigs , who take advantage of these poor women and not only ... Another reason Christian women should not wear human hair , is because it may have been used in pagan practices, as it is very common for practitioners of such beliefs, to offer their hair in rituals and often to cast spells ! When we wear hair that has been used in this type of practices, we perpetuate the existence of the spirits to whom the spells have been fulfilled. The bible says to embrace our true self and to not intentionally hide it to persue an appearance ideal ... What we wear , what we feed ourselves should also be holy and sanctified by the grace of god .

    God is transforming me as well. I'm really petite. I'm about 5'1 and maybe 120lbs. Im almost 40 and I look about 19. So when I started being an adult I equated wearing sexy clothes to prove to ppl and myself that I'm grown or older than I appear. I pretty much kept this mind set but nowadays I want to have a more mature look without being sexy or half dressed.

    Our fellowship with God however shouldn’t be about “church doctrine”…it should be about God and what He’s putting on our hearts. If you feel condemned because you’re not practicing “church doctrines”, then you’re in the wrong place. Because what this doctrines do is to cause fear and condemnation and in the end ceases one from hearing the true voice of God. You tend to do what the “church is saying” rather than what God is. In all, let’s seek the voice of God. Shalom 🙏🏾

    • @virtuousval07

      Thank you for your input. I don’t believe fellowship with God is only about doctrine but I also can’t deny the fact that certain doctrines does help people change for the better (when it aligns with scripture). For example, learning how to dress modestly and appreciating my natural beauty has helped me turn away from revealing my body and has helped me love myself more. I never felt condemned nor did they ever condemn anyone to hell. I think sometimes when people hear the word “doctrine “they think its a bad thing or you’re being condemned or its not about God. We have free will so it’s up to the individual to decide if they want to follow it. What He puts on our hearts and scripture are important and my advice is to always make sure what your being taught is aligned with the Word. The doctrine was backed up with scripture and I would never follow a doctrine if it doesn’t align with the Word of God. In addition to the church’s doctrine, I also had my own personal convictions which I shared in the video. I’m not condemning anyone who’s modesty journey isn’t the same as mine, just sharing my own journey. Everyones walk will look different. God Bless and thank you for watching.

    This was and still is a challenging transition for me, especially makeup. I wore makeup everyday for 20 yrs. I’m only recently beginning to feel comfortable in my skin and who God has called me to be in Christ.
    I also learned that not only will God change your appearance, but in time once you have proven your faith. You have surrendered all and truly trust in the Lord, then He will give you a NEW NAME. Just as He changed Abram's name to Abraham, Sarai's to Sarah, Jacob's to Israel and Simon's to Peter. Through those names God gave new beginnings, new hopes, new blessings. For some reason God has changed my name to Kat. Sis Kat more specifically. I’ve never went by Kat ever, but I’m realizing that it’s easy for children to pronounce and remember in Sunday school. As well as ppl in my church, in my business with youth, and in the school of ministry. It just works!
    Praise God! I thank Him for changing my appearance and giving me a new name. Be encouraged ladies and God bless you through your transformation into a new creature.

    My perspective to dressing godly is this: as long as my heart dresses to glorify God and am modest. So no skin showing. As a teenager I don’t put make up at the moment but I do wear jewelry and pants. I dress as I am convicted to do so. I just think some people are way too religious about the head covering. When the Bible says our hair is actually our head covering and that our long hair on women is glorious. So if any new Christian out there. Don’t be too extreme. Dress as you are convicted. Make sure you read the Bible and pray always.

Always wearing short shorts, little skirts, crop tops, sports bras and just very tight fitting clothes. Similar to you I go to the gym and I like to show off my results. This video made me realize that yes God made me beautiful the way I am. I don't have to flaunt it, I don't have to show it off, I can still be beautiful in modest clothes. Thank you for blessing me with this video. ❤

    I prayed about the same thing concerning my hair for God to allow me to find the best products for my hair. I cut my hair in a bob and now do twist outs, wash and goes, mini twist etc. I don’t struggle with itchy scalp anymore or acne as I did before. I’ve never felt more beautiful and get more compliments on my hair from my husband than ever.

    This was a good video. People can also make modestly and idol too! I see the trend may be following more modest influences however, that is still following someone else. I agree with you in finding your individuality through God.

      I have been saved for over 20 years and I wear makeup and braids and sometimes wigs. I am a professional and work around other mature adults. It's my preference for time management and to maintain a certain level of professionalism. I don't make my hair or wardrobe an idol, I think many young women do. So the Lord is just graciously showing them that they are enough without all the adornments. I have not made my outward appearance an idol and perhaps that is why Holy Spirit has not convicted me in this area. Good for them for being obedient to what they believe God has spoken to them. But you are right focusing on your looks whether modest or not can be an idol. Focus on God and your heart posture. Looking good and being good are two different things.

    Your skin and hair look amazing, keep following the holy spirit. He knows our strengths and weaknesses, he took some things out of my life that weren't necessarily wrong, but it was because of my unhealthy attachment to those things to cover pain/fear/insecurities. He hasn't convicted me about makeup, jewelry or pants, but I personally don't care for makeup or extensions to begin with. A lot of it is very unhealthy for the skin and hair follicles, but if I could ever find natural makeup, then I might consider.

    You are so stunning I thought you were wearing makeup. I applaud you for your modesty and actually wearing something God wants us to wear and respect ourselves. This society is very toxic and sexualized. You see it in the media (Specially Netflix, Instagram and Tik tok) women see these shows and these celebrities and then become sexual images too to feel better about themselves. It seems that all of them are trying to top each other on who’s more attractive. It’s so sad and toxic. I recently became more modest too in the way I dress. I never had social media. The Holy Spirit told you to get rid of that account because it was feeding the sexualization. Thank you for your video and thank you for inspiring so many women out there.

    I love this! I pray you'll find perfection in Christ who makes us complete.
    God opened up my eyes to this through his scriptures and I started to share it through preaching and teaching. However, I got a lot of fight because of it.
    Perfect love casts out fear. If we keep doing things because of fear or insecurities we can never attain perfect love in Christ. Insecurities are fear-based and it's a sickness that we need to heal from through the word of God.
    To heal from it you need to grow in faith, hope and love by being obedient to the testimony of Jesus Christ. Study his teachings in detail. He will save you from your selfish desires that Satan is using to destroy you. He will give you rest from depression, loneliness, insecurities, fear, a need for validation and acceptance from man and the worst feelings a human can experience.

There was a denim dress I loved but it was a bit short, almost like a long shirt so I pair it with flowy white pants and it’s super cute (and covers my bottom half so it is still modest). This can help many women as well who maybe don’t always want to wear a dress or skirt- there’s lots of creative and stylish ways to honor God. Allow Holy Spirit to teach you all things! ❤️🙏

You are right, you are beautiful just the way God made you and you dont need vain things, if you ever use make up or do your hair different then it should be because you want to do that for yourself but you dont need all that, you are lovely just the way you are, you have the most gorgeous eyes, you are so pretty and you have such a lovely voice and you are so intelligent too and if anyone falls in love with you it should be for the beautiful woman who you are inside and out and not for the way you look or the way they want you to look or be. I know when the time is right, God will put the right man by your side and he will be a really lucky guy and you will be a lucky woman too because he will be the right one who loves you in truth and treats you like a real woman 🙂 ❤💛💚

    Soon had forgotten about the dream and wanted to wear my tight skirt with a slit and was reminded again before wearing it about this same dream not to dress like that
    To make it clear lm not a pastor or a teacher or preacher at my church but but l had to understand that l shld dress properly l mean modesty whether at church or not coz the word world z a big term to me and its not saying or mean at church only but to the world. Thank you

    There is nothing wrong with wearing makeup and jewelry. God wants us to be proud of ourselves, but our hearts should matter more. I thought wearing makeup was bad, even though I’m very modest with it, I thought it was terrible. But a lot of these stories are convictions to people who “overdo” it and looking for the attention. I’ve seen modest fake hair whether it be a wig or sew in. And these women are Godly, but they keep it modest. God is a piece of all of us, he knows we are women and want to look nice. But he just doesn’t want us to be out here wilding and doing it for the attention of men or anyone else. I just wanted to say that bc you don’t have to be totally bare, I’m bare a lot of days of my life like literally everyday, but I know God just wants modesty in everything we do and just don’t idolize all this stuff.
