I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
—Isaiah 61:10, (NKJV)
Do hypocrisy and self-righteousness drive you crazy? Do you know a believer who struts around, puffed up with spiritual self-righteousness thinking he or she is better than everyone else? Have you caught yourself with the same stenchy attitude? I know I have.
If you can relate, watch out! It’s a trap the enemy uses against all believers—against you and me. He desires to dim our light in this dark world so that it does not shine brightly and welcome all, no matter their standing in life.
But there is great news! God has covered us with a robe of righteousness. So grab your robe, shake off the soot, and listen in.

Dear Lord,
Help me to embrace the truth that I am robed in Christ’s righteousness and not my own. Also, as I embrace that truth, help me to walk in it so that I can become all that You created me to be.
In Jesus’ name, amen.

I am robed in righteousness!
