SCRIPTURE:
And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord,
and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him… Now Joshua was clothed with
filthy garments, and stood before the angel. Zechariah 3:1-3
THOUGHT
FOR THE DAY: It is not the quality of the physical dress on your body but the
purity of your spiritual garment that matters most in life.
Our
anchor scripture tells us about Joshua, the High Priest; a minister who was
spiritually clothed in filthy garments before the Angel but appeared clothed
with a dignifying attire of a High Priest in the physical. So, there are people
who are clothed in royal apparel in the physical like, King Solomon, but look
like vultures in the spirit; wearing stinky, smelly garments stained with all
manner of filth in the realm of the spirit.
Beloved,
it is how we look in the spirit that matters most in life. The truth is:
knowing and doing what matters most in life guarantees our escape from
calamities both in time and in eternity.
So, in
continuation of what matters most in life, today, we are looking at;
1. The purity of Spiritual Garment: It is not the quality of the physical dress
on your body but the purity of your spiritual garment that matters in life.
2.
Where you are going to spend eternity: It is not where you are going to spend
your next holidays but where you are going to spend eternity that matters most.
Some people are so desperate to spend their holidays abroad; they are saving
money for a trip to Europe, Dubai, etc. That is alright but where you are going
to spend eternity is what matters most in life.
3. The intensity of the right passion: It is not what you drive but what drives
you that matters most in life. Your passion determines your portion in life and
in eternity.
Beloved,
if you do not want to end in regrets both in time and in eternity, be committed
to what matters most in life.
Remember
this: It is not the quality of the physical dress on your body but the purity
of your spiritual garment that matters most in life.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Invest in your spiritual life; feed your spirit with the Word of God and do
all you can to maintain the atmosphere of God’s Presence.
2. Live with the consciousness of eternity.
