Naked, Not Ashamed We come into the world naked. Adam and Eve knew not they were naked until they sinned, and then they hide their nakedness, their sin from God, or so they thought they could. The Lord wants us to come before Him totally naked. Naked and bare, laying all our sins before HIM Who sees all things. A bride and groom are not ashamed to become naked and bring their selves to each other, because they have love and acceptance. Our flesh/soul wants to hide these things. The Lord wants us to be naked before Him in all that we are. HE wants us to speak openly to Him about all our feelings and thoughts. Jesus/Yeshua said, "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. Matt 23: 27 KJV Jesus/Yeshua hung on a cross, naked before all mankind. In His ministry HE was naked before all. HE had nothing to hide, no darkness in Him. We are to be imitators of Christ. We are to confess our sins one to another that we might be healed. In other words, we, the Body of Christ must be naked as HE was. If we can be naked and unmasked; naked and not ashamed, the Body of Christ will come together and prevail. Hiz4Ever†~Vincit Veritas~Truth Conquers  Vincit Veritas~Truth Conquers |

Shame is an issue I struggled and struggled with. Self-condemnation. Neither of which we are to have. Could see and believe with great faith for everyone else. Could apparently not see it on the inside for myself. All this time and growing and still I battle with this issue. But yes my friend. Naked. & That's why much of my posts are touching on past mistakes and what God has shown me. -Or even when I faulter now, as well as the "good". If we do not show who we really are to the world we are trying to go into as instructed . . . how do they know when the Lord changes us, changes things? How do they see His glory? & When someone is living a truly messed up life & need God------ how do they see Him in a lot of supposed "perfect looking" people??? They might see Him----- but in their eyes all they see is something that they are anywhere near, and a hopelessness to ever be . . . I wear the good, bad & the ugly. I wear it out loud. Times I might quake like a child----- but I still do. Besides, the enemy cannot get and take you in those areas-----maybe harass you a little------- but you've already exposed it. & I still come to God as a child. -Because I know He can do ANYTHING. I have watched it, seen it, heard of it and lived it. & If not one person in my whole life has accepted me faults & all at ALL times, . . . GOD has. Just as I am. Naked.

((((((((((((( M H )))))))))))))))))) We must all come to Him as little children. Children know not shame until we make them feel ashamed. God Bless You! Hiz4Ever † Vincit Veritas~Truth Conquers

Hiz4ever thankyou for clarifying that. I was pretty sure you meant spiritual nakedness until you mentioned Jesus hanging on the cross naked so that was my around about way of double checking exactly what you meant. I do appreciate what you have to say about our Lord
