Title: Practice Good Hygiene II
Memorize: And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored to you, and you shall be clean.” 2 Kings 5:10 (Nkjv)
Bible Reading: 1 Corinthians 6:19 (Nkjv)
[19] Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?
Message:
As teenagers reach puberty, their hormones start working in full gear and their hygiene requirements change.
It is essential that you are taught good hygiene to avoid potential medical problems and social exclusion that may result from poor hygiene.
I will highlight the basics of good hygiene below:
– Bathe twice a day, ideally in the morning and immediately after you get back from an outing or before going to bed. Use a mild soap and concentrate on washing your face, hands, feet, underarms, and pubic area.
– Use deodorant after bathing to keep your armpit fresh because, at puberty, your sweat glands become more active, and the chemical composition of the sweat changes, causing it to give off a stronger smell.
– Wear clean clothes every day.
– Brush your teeth twice a day and floss at least once every day to prevent holes in your teeth and bad breath.
– Shave off the hair under your armpits and on your pubic area to prevent unpleasant odour.
Key Point:
Be intentional about maintaining good hygiene.

What does Jesus say about judging others?
O GOD, OUR HELP IN AGES PAST
1. O God, our help in ages past
Our hope for years to come
Our shelter from the stormy blast
And our eternal home.
2. Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure
Sufficient is Thine arm alone
And our defence is sure.
3. Before the hills in order stood
Or earth received her frame
From everlasting Thou art God
To endless years the same.
4. A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone
Short as he watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream
Bears all its sons away
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
6. O God, our help in ages past
Our hope in years to come
Be thou our guard while trouble last
And our Eternal home.
