Living Clean: A Holy Lifestyle Inside and Out

By Apostle Lily Dsouza | Apostolic Prophetic Church Foundation International Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.”

— Psalm 51:10 (KJV) At Apostolic Prophetic Foundation Church International, we believe that living clean isn’t just about tidiness—it’s about holiness. True Apostolic living reflects God's purity in every area: our hearts, homes, habits, and hygiene. This blog shares biblical truth and practical wisdom to help you maintain spiritual and physical cleanliness as a testimony to the world. 1. Cleanliness Is a Reflection of Holiness

God's presence dwells in order, not in confusion.

“For God is not the author of confusion but of peace...”— 1 Corinthians 14:33

Clean surroundings bring peace and clarity, helping us to worship and pray more freely.

📌 Practical Tip: Declutter weekly and dedicate one day to deep cleaning. 💪 2. Your Body Is the Temple of the Holy Spirit

“Your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost... glorify God in your body...”— 1 Corinthians 6:19–20

Keep yourself groomed, eat clean, rest well, and stay healthy—because your body carries His Spirit.

📌 Practical Tip: Begin your day with prayer and a bath. Freshness outside fuels freshness within. 🏡 3. A Godly Home Reflects God’s Order

“Let all things be done decently and in order.”— 1 Corinthians 14:40

Make your home an altar. Cleanliness invites peace and worship.

📌 Practical Tip: Play worship music while you tidy up. Light a candle. Let your home smell like peace. 🔥 4. A Clean Life Is a Powerful Testimony

“...among whom ye shine as lights in the world.”— Philippians 2:15

Your lifestyle preaches even when your mouth doesn’t. People are drawn to light, order, and beauty.

📌 Practical Tip: Maintain a small welcome corner in your home for guests and prayer. ❤️ 5. Start With a Clean Heart

“If we confess our sins... he will cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”— 1 John 1:9

Cleaning starts in the soul. Repent daily. Speak life. Think pure.

📌 Practical Tip: Keep a prayer journal. Declutter your mind by releasing burdens to God. 🕯️ Conclusion:

Living clean is a kingdom mindset. At APFCI, we teach that holiness flows from the heart to the hands. From how we speak to how we sweep, God sees it all. Clean homes, clean hearts, clean habits—this is our Apostolic testimony.
