Clothed in Christ- Galatians 3:26-27

26 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. (Galatians 3:26-27).

Father,

It is an amazing thought that when we are baptized into your Son, that we become clothed in Him. That means that when you look at our imperfection, you instead you see Him and his perfection. So, I stand before you and am perfect in your eyes. I pray that these children will choose that path, that they become your children of promise through faith in Him as your Son and that they choose to be baptized into your Son and thereby to be clothed in Him. I pray that they will fully comprehend the significance of being clothed in Him.

Jesus, thank you for surrounding us with your person, for being our shield and our protector, for giving us the right to approach the Throne of Heaven by the perfection and righteousness that you cover over us. Help us and help these children to understand what you are doing for us and the price you paid to do that.

Amen
