2-19-08 DAILY BLUEPRINT:
Naked
JOB 1:21
...And said naked came I out of my Mother's womb, and naked I shall return thither: the Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord...
Today we continue on the same theme of yesterday's devotional - the message is we cannot take anything we gain here with us - save for our salvation - and that has been given to us - we could not earn it - we could never be good enough to ever be right with God - we must go through Christ to be redeemed! Job was a righteous man in God's sight and yet had so many things taken from him - he suffered many trials in his life - of which it makes our lives look not quite as bad. Job said that God had blessed him even when things were being taken away - The Lord gives and the Lord can take away - we really are nothing apart from Him -we come into this world naked and we leave the same way - we cannot hold unto the things of this world and move on with Christ- we must surrender all -we must become naked from the things of this world - all that we obtain here is fleeting - it won't last no matter how well we care for it - our bodies will one day ware out - one day our minds may begin to fade away - but our Spirit will remain - Job knew that he really had nothing of his own - it all belonged to God - the same is true of us - all we have and call our own does not really even belong to us - it all belongs to God - We have nothing we were not given - and what we have will be taken away one day -we really are naked - but in CHRIST we ware the clothing of righteousness!
a side note: we leave the same way we came to this place, naked!
Through CHRIST we have the royal clothing of righteousness!
