The Lord then had something to say to the women in Zion - not to unconverted women, but to the daughters of Zion. All young sisters should read Isaiah 3:16-26 and be warned. The Lord says there that He will judge the women who mince along with noses in the air, tinkling the bracelets on their ankles, and with wanton eyes that rove among the crowds to catch the glances of the men. The Lord will strip away their ornaments, necklaces, bracelets, veils of shimmering gauze, ankle chains, headbands, earrings and other rings, jewels, party clothes, negligees, capes and ornate combs, their purses (handbags), and the mirrors (in their handbags), their lovely lingerie and beautiful dresses (Living Bible). Does the Lord observe such minute details in a womans attire? He certainly does. God is very interested in the way His daughters dress. He wants Christian women to dress modestly and never in such a way as to tempt men. The Holy Spirit exhorts women to be sensible in the way they dress. Christian women should be noticed for being kind and good and not for the way they fix their hair or because of their jewels or fancy clothes (1 Tim. 2:9,10-Living). One can imagine how angry the women of Isaiahs day became on hearing such strong preaching. They must have hated him and encouraged their husbands to kill him! Prophets are different from regular preachers. They speak what God lays on their hearts, even if their message offends the rich people and the women in a church. Thats why prophets are not popular. by Zac Poonen God needs women today, who will faithfully portray through their lives, the glory that He originally intended to manifest through a woman, when He created Eve. https://youtube/watch?v=Db9OVpqCMGE
