Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Hebrew 4:13..

Meaning of naked (of something such as feelings or behavior) undisguised; blatant:

According to one source, there are 104 references to the word " naked " and its derivatives in 87 verses of the King James Version of the Bible.

When I say the word naked for a Bible word study it may raise a few eyebrows... But I have been challenged by a good source.. so let’s see with the naked eye where this word might take us?? 

We all have grown accustomed to adorning our bodies with clothes that reflect our own self-worth and our personalities and style. And we seem to think that our own beauty will shine for others to see. But do you ever wonder why we come into this world naked? Because you are a beautiful miracle from God. He loves us as we are... But as we grow we began to apply layers to protect ourselves from a cold sometimes cruel world. But God will always see us through all layers, all the scars.. all the beautiful moments of life... But as we build our perception of what we want others to see. We begin to hide the beautiful child within. 

If we are fortunate enough to find God!! Again !! He will strip our layers one at a time. This sometimes can be a beautifully painful experience. But with His love, you will emerge into the true you. A beautiful creation from God. 

We will begin to shed the layers we have built to hide the child within... We will see past the outerwear that covers our bodies. We will be reintroduced to our naked soul, the naked child that lives with our hearts... And as we feel this freedom. We will begin to emerge naked for the world to see... And God will say hey it’s you. I love the nakedness of you welcome back. Being naked in front of God is one of the most soul-opening experiences you will ever imagine!! You don’t even need to say no peeking. Because He knows everything about you inside and out ... There is No one else that we know that knows us that well. 

It’s Him, It’s always Him. 

Go and be the beautiful you! The beautiful child that God has always seen... 

“And said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.”Matthew 18:3 NKJV
