Good Morning “Washed in The Blood”. Today we are in Zechariah 3.
“Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right side to accuse him.” Zechariah 3:1 NIV
Satan… the never-ceasing accuser of God’s people. We see Satan the Accuser throughout Scripture (Job 1:8-11; Luke 22:31-32).
But we have an advocate. One that testifies on our behalf! Not because of anything we have done but because of His Grace (Ephesians 2:8-9).
“My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.”
1 John 2:1-2 NIV
God’s great grace and mercy is that, even though Joshua was standing next to Satan the Accuser and was wearing filthy clothes (instead of the usual spotless garments of the priesthood), God rebuked Satan before he could speak. And He gave Joshua new clothes. As the high priest, whose job was to offer the atoning sacrifice for the sins of the community - new clothes for Joshua meant forgiveness for the community (Isaiah 1:18; Revelation 19:7-14).
Who could ask for more? With our repentance, Satan is silenced, and righteousness is extended by grace. It’s all through the Messiah… Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!
Love you all! Dig in and live it out!
