His Clothes:When they had crucified him, they divided up his clothes by casting lots.
-Matt. 27:35
In fact, the law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
-Hebrews 9:22
He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God.
-Revelation 19:13
My Clothes:I delight greatly in the LORD;
my soul rejoices in my God.
For he has clothed me with garments of salvation
and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness,
as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest,
and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
-Isaiah 61:10
"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? -Matt. 6:28-30
Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting: "Hallelujah! For our Lord God Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear." - Rev. 19:6-8
****
Too much it seems for me You've done
That thieves and liars like me be won,
To stand adorned in righteousness,
Blood bathed from sin's own wretchedness.
Your royal robes You laid aside
That You might dress Your blessed bride,
A gift too precious to ignore!
Let me not rest till You're adored!
-Beth Moore
