1 Chronicles 4:24-5:26; Ezekiel 7:1-27; John 1:19-51
I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness. Isaiah 61:10
Being made ready for Heaven is entirely God’s work. Just like Adam and Eve failed to cover their own nakedness we also will find it impossible to cover our spiritual nakedness before a holy God. Today our souls can rejoice that the garments of salvation and the robe of righteousness are provided by the Lord Himself. Give up trying to cover your own sin and surrender to Him and put on His robe of righteousness. —Sid Halsband
It is the Father’s joy to bless,
His love provides for me a dress,
A robe of spotless righteousness,
O Lamb of God in Thee. —Mary Jane Deck Walker
