Clothed in Christ - a Robe with a Golden Sash Revelation 1:13

 ¹² I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, ¹³ and among the lampstands was someone “like a son of man,”^[b] dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. Revelation 1: 12-13

Dear Jesus,

As I contemplate the full meaning of being clothed in you, I think about how this means that I am draped with your qualities. I pray that these children will come to understand that being clothed in you means that they have the attributes of royalty. They are sons and daughters of the Living God and are priests, princes and princesses in your court. They are dressed in royal garb and have position and authority as members of the royal family. They will not always feel this way as the world mistreats them (as the also mistreated you). As their high priest, remind them often of their true position in the universe, higher than any earthly king. Higher than any earthly president. And help them to remember that this puts a heavy responsibility on them to represent the Kingdom of God as its ambassadors in the world.

Strengthen them and remind them often,

Amen
