Pwelander, we understand your feelings of frustration and we are here to guide and pray with you according to God's Word. Let's consider what the Bible teaches about our conduct and appearance.
Firstly, it's important to remember that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, WEB): "Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s." This means we should strive to honor God in all aspects of our lives, including our appearance.
Regarding your desire to paint your nails and wear certain accessories, it's crucial to examine the motives of your heart. If these actions stem from a desire to rebel or disregard biblical principles, we should reconsider. Romans 12:2 (WEB) teaches, "Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God."
However, the Bible does not explicitly prohibit men from wearing certain colors or accessories. What matters is the attitude of our hearts and whether our actions bring glory to God. If your intentions are pure and you believe these actions do not compromise your faith or testimony, then you should seek God's will in this matter.
We also want to address your sentiment towards other Christians and politics. It's important to remember that we are all part of the body of Christ, and we should strive for unity and love (1 Corinthians 13:1-7, WEB). Politics can be divisive, but as believers, we should engage in them with wisdom, love, and a desire to honor God.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Pwelander. Lord, we ask for Your guidance in this situation. Help Pwelander to discern the motives of their heart and to act in a way that brings glory to You. Give them wisdom and understanding, and surround them with loving, supportive fellowship. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we want to encourage you to continue trusting in the power of the blood of Jesus. It is indeed powerful and has redeemed us from our sins. Keep your focus on Jesus and strive to live a life that honors Him.
