Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
I noticed that a lot of Christians use “personally I haven’t had any conviction” as an excuse to dress immodest when the Bible clearly encourages us to dress appropriately
A lot of Christians don't read the Bible, imo that's why
Same and the thing is if you're living a lukewarm lifestyle that already disregards Jesus habitually in it then of course you won't feel his convictions. Lukewarm Christians have premarital sex and feel no conviction because they've hardened their hearts.
@@vivaeuropa right such kind is always dismissive
Another thing is the muddled definition of “appropriate” which has confused so many and begun a whole new conversation unfortunately
@@tomiwaoluwasola6826 right!!!
Preach!! It’s soo hard to find Christian friends my age with this mindset. Lukewarm lifestyle has been so normalized 😭
Fr😭😭😭
Yes, that’s why God is our closest Friend forever. Keep focussing on Him and He will bring you to a community that glorifies Him ❤
where are u from x
Pray to God because He blessed me with true Christian friends. Amen
sameee
Y’all have so much wisdom IT’S INSANE. I’m 20 and every time I listen to y’all I’m just overwhelmed that young Christians like you guys still exist. God is really working through you guys and I pray He keeps doing so & may His word be preached as it should! I can definitely say that I learned so much listening to your podcasts and it made me realize so much things that I was neglecting before and I want to seek the Lord even more now! God bless y’all🫶🏾.
Melodyyy, spot on girl! People will notice you don't curse, gossip, blaspheme GOD, speak foolishly, say coarse/vulgar jokes. Back then they would say "goody two shoes", but now they say "judgemental" "holier than thou" as if being holy is bad thing... When in reality like you said, we're just set apart. And lowkey they are watching, taking mental notes, and are curious about you. And they're curious either with good motives or bad. Because I've had people amazed by the fact that I'm optimistic or nice. But, then you have those devils in people that want to destroy you, push your buttons, and find a way to make you "crack" under pressure as if me being nice is a bluff or facade. I also have dealt with people that thought I was being judgemental because I told them I don't do everything the world does. They took it personally/offensively, but that comes with the territory of holiness-- people that are intimidated by a Christ-like lifestyle will love to make you feel like you should lower yourself to their level for their comfort in sin -- skrrrt no sir. But, with GOD we won't crack under the pressure and we will stay true to Him by being righteous, holy, and Kingdom citizens regardless of what everybody else is doing.
I am pentecostal & I only wear skirts for my purity & PROTECTION but I don't judge girls who wear pants cause you can be Modest Wearing Pants like she said be mindful of the way you PRESENT YOURSELF & Honor your spouse if you have one. It's not hard HOLYSPIRIT WILL GUIDE YOU Listen MODESTY IS SO BEAUTIFUL who you really are gets to SHINE Bright ✨️
Beautiful pod, Christians I think shy away from modesty not just because of conviction but also because I think it really represents who they are and what they need to do. Men and are women should carry themselves in a modest way in order for the community to more accountable to each other without feeling judged.
I’m not gonna cry, but saying that your outward appearance reflects your inward view that you have hit me so hard. I am in my growing phase of my walk with Jesus. And my whole life I’ve struggled with what I can do for men because of early on sexual trauma. Although I’ve moved from that, I still catch myself going back to this type of behavior. I’m impressed however because in my early 20s I was super far from this mindset. I’m so glad you guys are out here preaching to the youth because I wish I could’ve had someone tell me these things!
This video really spoke to me. I'm 18 now and before I wore pants and wore tight stuff(I felt convinced to start wearing skirts and dresses). I didn't wear it for attention, I just wore what I felt was comfortable but I was still dressing immodestly. I read the Bible and researched Modesty in Christianity and in other religions. I found a modest style that I loved and I even started veiling full time. Glory to GOD, I dress modestly and change my personality too 💗
Thats beautiful I’ve been wanting to start wearing skirts and dresses more 🩷
pants being unmodest is crazy
This video literally reminded me why im starting my christian modesty brand for women and hand making it for my launch
Today, I prayed for all of you because you are doing God's work. I like that you don't change God's message for your own benefit. Even when it's hard, you still try to do what God wants. I'm grateful for you and I hope you keep telling people about God.
Regarding the podcast, it has been a while since God convicted me about this matter. While I strive to dress in a manner that pleases Him, I acknowledge that I still have a long way to go. What resonates with me most is the importance of nurturing a beautiful heart, as God instructs us in Colossians 3:12:
"Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience."
I recognize my tendency to prioritize superficial appearances over embodying the traits that God desires of me. At times, I find myself acting in ways that are geared towards attracting attention, particularly from men, and I am aware that this does not align with God's will. The Holy Spirit continually reminds me that I am not being true to myself.
I hope I can change and be more like Jesus. Amen.
When you talk about the modesty of honoring your husband, you can tie it into how God's "rule" of modesty is a protection, because you could easily see how fights or insecurities or different issues can ruin a godly relationship through lack of modesty.
Not yet done watching, but I feel like I’ve been cleaned up.
There was all these bad thoughts and energy in me about modesty, I felt like I was changing my ways. Now my heart feels empty of the thoughts 💭 ❤😢
So blessed to have people like you in the world
You guys ate and left NO CRUMBS in this episode. Y'all were on fire within the first 5 minutes. Thank you!
you know its gonna be a good episode when they both got the NY caps on
Sister, you’re preaching to me. Thank you!
verse I read about few days ago that convicted me on modesty was " Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ." Philippians 1:27
I just fully submitted my life to Christ. And it's like he keep showing me the next steps and this video is one lol. Finna go donate my old clothes expeditiouslyyyyy. I agree with this message, continue to serve the Lord and do his work. I pray for prosperity over you guys!
GIRL AMEN!!!!
Ameen! But i suggest you get rid of the clothes because donating immodest clothes is like it being ok for others to dress immodestly but not you. I don't know if i've delivered my point well..
@@itsallaboutjesus.4906 You did lol. I thought about that, you have a point. Will do!!
@@nylani2579 Ameen! Am glad, God bless you!
❤❤ Amazing as always! What a great topic to discuss that is knowledgeable for all ages. I definitely appreciate the mention that modesty isn’t only for women but it also applies to men.
Yesss !!! Set apart, Jesus didn’t have to compromise to reach anybody. This is so good !!!
Finally! A podcast episode that speaks about modesty and doesn’t sugar code it by reducing it to personal convictions! It’s never okay go for your body to be more recognizable than the God in you! The Bible says, “Let your [light] so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 5:16) God didn’t say “let your bodies shine before all men.” Also, I’m so glad y’all addressed Pastors/Christians using profanity. So so good! You really spoke truth in love!
This was so convicting and beautiful. Thank u guys for allowing urselves to be great vessels for the Lord. God bless ❤️
So good! I enjoyed this throughly! Modest is beautiful!
Thank you guys for such a timely message - definitely felt that conviction with some of the points yous were making. I pray that God continues to use you both to speak truth and lead others to grow in our relationship with Him.
I definitely struggle with cursing and how I dress sometimes. I definitely felt this message hit home. thank you.
This podcast makes so much sense and so relatable. The dressing for rebellion to dressing for Christ, yourself, & your future man hit home!! Seriously appreciate these videos and the word.
Ah God blesss you guys. Such a convicted and helpful message. Keep it going🙏🏾🙌🏾
Thank you both for sharing your wisdom and God’s word. Every single video I have watch has been so good. I have gained new perspective and motivation to dive deeper into my walk with Christ. God bless y’all!
I love this topic because it’s def been something i’ve been working on, for a long time i cared about my appearance and how men noticed me in the way i dress but now i don’t want to dress that way and i want to be loved for me and what i have to offer intellectually, spiritually, etc and not just looks and they love me because they see God in me. It’s def a work in progress but i’m happy that i’ve had that realization and if a guy rejects me now then he didn’t see me the way God sees me and the way i see and love myself. Pray others realize this too men and women be you and show who you are on the inside and not worry about your outward appearance 💗🦋
Hey I love y’all so much, y’all make me hackle and cackle. Truly you are sibling goals.
This was filled with such love, grace, and wisdom. May God bless you both abundantly 🙏🏼❤️
God bless you brother,very powerful message to young people!!
My friend earlier told me she had a dream of me with my dad and I was tryna learn more about God but my dad did not like what I was wearing, He seemed to not approve bcc I was wearing very short revealing clothes and Hod had been convicting me for a long time but I’d ignore it just biz I thought it wasn’t that bad but when I heard that dream I knew God was telling me to start dressing modestly. After reaching home, when I clicked on YT, y’all, ur video was the first on my page!!!! No like if it ain’t God, idk who😭. God bless u❤️
This was a word!! It was so good and im so happy that i watched this video, I took some notes. What stood out to me a lot is when you mentioned that if people of the world will look at your life and tell themselves “you’re just like me, why should I follow Christ?” , then there’s something wrong. AMEN
I’m subscribing just after 2 mins cuz I can tell y’all are serious about the Lord
Doing a great job
May the Lord be with us
Very encouraging !! Love this ❤ God has really been speaking to me through your pod. I am now starting my walk with the lord.
Each point and explanation 💯
Hope some time yall can also touch on piercings , tattoos etc.
I got married young and i drifted away from God , was also lukewarm and also people around me been luke warm as well. Both my spouse and i did wrong and have decided to separate. Every time i tried to male it work, things kept getting worst. Now that i am healing and have time on my hands, its easy to go party etc (as i didnt really get to before) but i choose not to and choose to do life with god. Doing life without him has gotten me to a dark place, that i question my purpose for being here other than for my son.
Ive always been petite, then losing a little size i had, with so much stress, appearance is killing me
So these videos help me alot.
Continue doing what you do 😊
I am so thankful to find this channel...you guys have helped me so much in my walk with Jesus. Dios los bendiga! May God protect you guys and may He continue blessing your platform.
I'm really so blessed to come across this podcast. I had a sudden urge earlier to listen to a podcast on somethings troubling me and miraculously I came across this. I must say I've learnt a lot and I have peace of mind too. Keep up the good work guys. May God strengthen you and take you both to greater heights for his glory. Amen
❤❤❤Love the podcast and how you guys are not lukewarm and not compromising your faith(I admire the boldness). So excited for season 2.... please talk about being surrounded by lukewarm "Christians" at church and how to not let them contaminate you....🙏
I'm happy I can across this podcast. Most the things you talk about is not being spoken in Church anymore 👏👏
I looooooooooooooooooove.....this...and i looove you guys! This is AWESOME!! SPOT ON!! God bless you abundantly for speaking truth and for pouring out the wisdom he has blessed you with ❤❤❤ Am also soo happy that am one of the people who requested for "christian modesty video and how christians are supposed to dress" 💃💃 Thank you JESUS for Melody and Ymanol, don't let them miss heaven, AMEEEN!!!
This is really amazing💯🙌May God bless y'all with much more wisdom
I don’t even know how I got here but I needed to hear this! Bless y’all
really loved this one ! random but i agree on the pentecostal take. they dress and look so beautiful, i admire it so much.
47:29 Praise God! Y’all stay steadfast in the Lord and keep it going. This was good, all for His glory!
Amen.....🙏🏻 thank you for delivering the Lord's truth and God's values against this world full of worldly values and frost. I pray for both of you. This is a valuable message that has been so precious in this day and age. I love you in the Lord
Not me crying 😩 this gathered me right on up lol I thank God for yall fr plsss keep being obedient 💕
I'm trying to get out of the ultra casual stage of the last few years pandemic. As a 38yo woman, I'm still wearing t-shirts and sweat pants. I'm in the process of finding nicer, modest outfits that still make me look good/confident. thing is, I always get more compliments when wearing some trousers and a blouse.
I love this you did an amazing job at calling us up in love! Please continue to obey Holy Spirit when He asks you to speak on these topics!!
one of my favouriteee podcasts. and my favourite episode so far
This was very well done glad to see younger Christians speaking on this topic and accurately. Continue in grace & conviction ❤❤❤
Such a beautiful topic ❤️ I absolutely love you two and I pray that God continues to give y’all the wisdom and guidance to be that leading light for our generation. Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge! 🙏🏾
This is so good!! So many gems in here that will set our generation free 🙌🏾💞
Amen! Be BOLD for the Lord, with love of course. None of Jesus’ disciples and Jesus Himself did NOT sugar coat the gospel, the Good News does not have to be altered but preached just like it is. It worked in the Bible without them sugar coating so..
Anyone can look beautiful with material things, but being beautiful is a matter of the heart
This was amazing and eye opening to listen to. Thank you both for speaking through the Holy Spirit. As a freshman college student, seeing how my peers dress can really tempt me to change how I dress to fit the standard. I'm not sure if y'all talked about temptation of the world already in a podcast, but that is an area I can fall short in.
Wow you guys are so encouraging! I think God was really speaking to me and confirming things to me through this. Before covid I did a fashion show where I showed girls how to take out fits they wore and style them modestly. People wanted me to move ahead with it, but covid happened and I sort of lost motivation. Recently people have been saying I should start investing in that idea again, as this seems to be something God has gifted me in.
I love seeing how Melody, you have grown in your modesty journey. Now both of you are echoing my exact thoughts from what I have learned as I study God's Word.
I feel like in this season I have like 5 friends, and 2 of them are you guys lol. It's kinda sad cause it's one sided but you guys are such amazing people with beautiful hearts for Christ! So I can't resist commenting all the time. Maybe one day it won't be one sided😅 love you guys💙
Thank you ! It truly builds my spirit up !
Love this!❤ can you guys speak on pagan holidays? I’d love to hear y’all’s outlook on it.
Let’s go 🤎👑 amazing episode
Thanks I needed this
Wow this was a word , God bless you both for leading me to conviction
Very interesting...modesty is both for men and women..men think its sisi to be modest..
I definitely need to rewatch, I mean this was beautiful!
A lot more crazy things happen when you decide to step outside your relationship/marriage. Sometimes it happens instantly, other times it takes a while for it to happen. There are emotions at stake here and it could easily go left if a partner starts feels insecure. And it makes me always remember this particular verse in the Holy Bible Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Let's let God and His word be the center of all our relationships and not things of this world and I believe things will workout fine.
Thank you so much for this message , may God bless you 🙏🏿❤️
Thank you for doing this episode!! I literally questioned a Christian influencer who was speaking Gods word but then I saw their pictures on IG? I asked God about it. How can someone speak wisdom and give advise but dress like the world. I figured They are still growing in their walk but it’s confusing for new believers ❤
I’m so happy I found this podcast, please keep going to spread the word of God ❤
Amazing episode. Well said & beautifully done 🤍
I just wanne see God bless u to for sharing and inspiring this generation with the platform God has give u too 🙏🏾 stay strong stay close to God and Godbless u guys
everything that was said hit a nerve...my first time being so invested into something for a greater benefit☺
this episode is so gooddd, this is definitely a ep I will be coming back to!! Amen!!
Dope pod 🔥
Such a interesting video guys, I’m so thankful for this Christian perspective
love your pod, i would love for you guys to have a discussion on the topic of tattoos and piercings, i need more understanding 'cause where I'm from based on culture having tattoos and piercings mean you're wayward and wild but i know it's just coming from the path of ignorance and i don't even know where that ideology came from. Breaking cultural barriers but also being careful, so please i would love you guys to discuss on this topic, thank youu
You both are doing great 😁 im sure the Lord our God is proud of you both☺
Holiness pleases God
“They’re so insecure” is a phrase used too much against men, yet OF girls don’t even know what that means. Why would he be insecure about your OF? Like, what’s the correlation there? Not liking men doing sexual acts while watching his partner is being insecure…??
This episode is beautiful and quoting 1 Peter YES!!!
Man what!!!! This was AMAZING🎉🎉🎉🎉
Loved this so much 🥺🤍🤍🤍
This really spoke to my spirit
This was powerful , thank you guys again for this wonderful insight 🔥🔥❤️
This is good and insightful. I also want to hear y'alls thought tho on how to deal w friends that are departing in your life cz of the walk w Christ. Right, now that you have been convicted and God's called you, you wouldn't want to jeopardize your relationship w God and your growth if anything you're trying to grow more and more in spirituality and that means soaking yourself in the word of God. Setting yourself apart, uhm also engaging in activities, conversations even, that glorify God. But now these friends have been w you your whole life. And now that you've chosen to stop being lukewarm, stop conforming cz that doesn't align w the holy spirit in you and the purpose God has called you for; they feel like you want to change them not understanding that you care so much for them, you trying to be a compass that points them to the light which is God. How can one go about these friendships ? Friendship that have existed for years on years that live's have literally become intertwined and now that one has decided to be on fire for the Lord, how can it be that, that one is able to project their values unto them so they can also be brought into the same revelation. Galatians 6 vs 1-3. Just something I'd really love to see you guys share y'alls insight about.❤
So is like street baggy clothes modest since it’s covering up or no because it’s not necessarily something a Christian would typically wear like dresses and skirts ykk
I think today a lot of Christian women wear what would be called "street wear". It is not necessarily a dress or skirt that makes something modest because there are dresses and skirts that are terribly immodest. As long as the style - whether it's street wear, formal wear, business, etc - does not bring attention to parts of your body and is not sensual, it can be modest. But it is also a matter of your heart posture. As you grow in God's Word, He will begin to convict you, and you will be able to tell :)
Thank you so much for this❤
THIS IS POWERFULL!!!!!!!!
❤ blessed
People actually tell me I dress like an old man. If dressing as an old man is pleasing to God then I'm so going to do that😁
Amazing podcast once again 🔥 keep it upp!!!! God bless you guys
Great set up guys love the pod
Preach, come on
That’s right !!!
Wow
Beautiful podcast
The exact reason im starting a womens modesty clothing store.
Loved this episode thank you guys for this❤️
can you talk on how to grow in your relationship with God
Again, beautiful podcast! 💕could ya talk about clubbing and lounges, and all those worldly curricular activities young Christians might feel peer pressured to participate in?
I love this! Thank you guys 🙂
