Joyce Meyer || Whatever People Used To Think Holiness Was.

Whatever people used to think holiness was, just became a mess and a nightmare.
Holiness became;
Not wearing make up
Not wearing pretty clothes
No jewelry and so on..

I lived in so much bondage from legalism and everything about legalism is something you can’t do. It is not boring to serve Christ. It is so much fun and there is so much you can do. And not only that, you can enjoy all of it.

Ezekiel 16:9-13
“‘I bathed you with water and washed the blood from you and put ointments on you. I clothed you with an embroidered dress and put leather sandals on you. I dressed you in fine linen and covered you with costly garments. I adorned you with jewelry: I put bracelets on your arms and a necklace around your neck, and I put a ring on your nose, earrings on your ears and a beautiful crown on your head. So you were adorned with gold and silver; your clothes were of fine linen and costly fabric and embroidered cloth. Your food was fine flour, honey and olive oil. You became very beautiful and rose to be a queen.

In another place He punished the Israelite for wearing earings because they were doing it as a feast to baal.

So, here is the bottom line. It’s all about your motives and why you are doing things.

We can’t look at the outside of SOMEBODY and decide for ourselves that they are evil person because they don’t look like we look or say things the way we say them or have the hair colour of our hair.
That’s why so many people don’t want to do anything with the church today because all they get is criticism and judgement.

Why on earth will people think that God is boring and no fun and give us rules and regulations. Let me tell you something, the Bible says, He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh.
And He put laughter inside of us and expect us to use it to laugh and laugh.
People are desperate to be happy.
