New spiritual clothes! Prayer focus!
Hello, are all Royal Prayer Guards and all who join us online!
As we continue in this dark world, thank you for your commitment to effective fervent prayer. Be encouraged, Jesus is with us always, to the close of the age. (John 8:31-32, James 5:16-18, Matthew 28:20)
The central theme for this focus.
Enter God’s word, discover and wear our new spiritual clothes!
What are people wearing?
People spend a lot of time… on the clothes they wear.
Realize there is more than just physical clothes.
Keep in mind that clothes or coverings came into existence because of sin.
Genesis 3:7
Then the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves apronlike girdles.
Genesis 3:21
For Adam also and for his wife the Lord God made long coats (tunics) of skins and clothed them.
How does God view a person apart from Jesus?
As filthy rags or a polluted garment. (Isaiah 64:6)
No one is doing right. (Romans 3:10-12)
How does God view those in Christ?
1. Clothed with the garment of praise! (Isaiah 61:3)
2. Clothed with the garments of salvation! (Isaiah 61:10)
3. Covered with the robe of righteousness! (Isaiah 61:10)
Isaiah 61:3
To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified."
Isaiah 61:10
I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
How should God's children view themselves?
1. Maintaining the garment of praise! (Isaiah 61:3)
2. Dressed in the garments of salvation! (Isaiah 61:10)
3. Coated with the robe of righteousness! (Isaiah 61:10)
Clean spiritual clothes are available!
These spiritual clothes are available and provide identity… for all those who receive Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.
As believers in Christ, our responsibility is to discover in the Bible our new spiritual clothes. We ought to wear our clothes and keep them clean daily through repentance.
Ecclesiastes 9:8
Let your garments be always white [with purity], and let your head not lack [the] oil [of gladness].
