Clothed by God - Our Daily Bread Ministries
See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put fine garments on you. Zechariah 3:4 When my kids were toddlers, they would play outside in our sodden English garden and quickly become covered in mud and dirt. For their good and the good of my floor, I’d remove their clothes at the door and wrap them in towels before sticking them in the bath. They’d soon move from dirty to clean with the addition of soap, water, and hugs. In a vision given to Zechariah, we see Joshua, a high priest, covered in rags that represent sin and wrongdoing (Zech. 3:3). But the Lord makes him clean, removing his filthy clothes and covering him in rich garments (3:5). The new turban and robe signify that the Lord has taken his sins from him. Lord Jesus, through Your saving death on the cross we can find acceptance and love. We too can receive God’s cleansing as we become free of our wrongdoing through the saving work of Jesus. As a result of His death on the cross, we can have the mud and sins that cling to us washed away as we receive the robes of God’s sons and daughters. No longer are we defined by what we’ve done wrong (whether lying, gossiping, stealing, coveting, or other), but we can claim the names God gives to those He loves—restored, renewed, cleansed, free. Ask God to remove any filthy rags you’re wearing so you too can put on the wardrobe He has reserved for you. Lord Jesus, through Your saving death on the cross we can find acceptance and love. May we receive this gift for Your glory. Who can wash away my sin? Jesus!
