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, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. — Isaiah 61:10 KJV
I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. — Isaiah 61:10 NIV
Thought and Reflection
This is God’s promise to His people after their Messiah comes with healing and power to bless them with the Lord’s favor. In many ways, this is our promise as Christians. We really do rejoice greatly in light of the fact that God has conveyed us from law, sin, and death through the coming of our Savior and Lord.
Because of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, as God’s children we are dressed with Christ and given garments of salvation and robes of His righteousness.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for the righteousness through Jesus. Thank you Lord Jesus, for paying the price for my sins to give me new life. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for cleansing me from my sin and empowering me to live for the Lord.
Help me Father to live in such a way that those around me know that You have made me whole and holy. In Jesus mighty name I pray. Amen.
