Healthy Thinking Day 26 - Fashion Friday

I like using a play on words so today I'm calling the blog Fashion Friday. In Isaiah 61 v 3 and 10 we are given 3 deferent pieces of cloting. We will look at these items and brake it down.

A garment of Praise Isaiah 61v3
A garment of salvation Isaiah 61v10
A robe of righteousness Isaiah 61v10

First a garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. ISAIAH61v3 The word garment means a piece of clothing. It's a form garment that is suitable or needed to be warn to cover one self. Something like a shirt or pants. In the same way Praise is something that has to be warn every day. Praise gets you in to the thrown room of grace. It moves God to dwell in the midst of your praises. Once we wear this Garment it replaces the spirit of heaviness. Jesus says "come to me, all those that labour and are heavy laden." Matt11v28 once again praise gets us into the thrown room. Once we praise we meet with Jesus he in turn takes the weight. 

Second a garments of salvation Isaiah 61v10. This garment/garments are also warn every day. Pay attention to the plural statement. There are more then one garment to were.  Salvation is given to us due to the finished work of the cross and we should wear this load and proud for the world to see. We are not saved in our own strength but by the power of love that kept Jesus hanging in the tree. Ephesians 6v17 talks about a helmet of salvation. This helmet is important because our thought life starts in our head. Your thought life will be under attack but with the helmet of salvation the firy arrows will be deflected.

Third a robe a righteousness Isaiah 61v10. This one is awesome. I would wear a robe to show off. In the same way this robe is warn to show off. But not to show of your righteousness. The bible tells us our righteousness is like filth before God. Isaiah 64v6 The righteousness we show off is Gods. Righteousness caries stature with it and has a promise attached to it.  James 5v16 "the prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. That's so awesome if you ask me. God gives us this righteousness and the. Says that is will enable our prayer to be powerful and affective. 

Now my encouragement. If you are heavy and tired put on your garment of praise and let Jesus lift your burdens. 

Salvation is yours never doubt that Jesus has paid the price. Know that your thought life is guarded but the helmet of salvation. 

Your prayers will have effect. The bible says so. Keep on praying as you wear the robe of righteousness. 

Now Go. 

Love you much. Please feel free to leave a comment. I would live to hear from you.
