“Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?
Luke 13:18
The glory of God’s golden roads in heaven is yet to be seen and told by any man. It only remains a promise that our God made to us through salvation in Jesus Christ.
Before Christ ascended to heaven after resurrection, he told the disciples (you and me) that he is going to prepare a place for us with the heavenly Father. This was the glorious invitation friend.
So as we prepare for that glorious day at that glorious place with our Father in heaven, the spirit is reminding us what we ought to be wearing for that glorious occasion.
Surely, you can’t just put on something at the last hour without preparation and expect to be received in the same fullness as though you took the time.
My question to you today is, “watchu got on?”
I am not referring to your new designer shoes or jacket that matches your assemble perfectly.
I’m asking you who, not what you are wearing today?
WHOSE BRAND ARE YOU?
Are you your own brand? – You know, picking up a little bit of style from this playbook, and this character, and this star, and that religion, and that other thing?
Friend, when people see you, do they see God on you and through you?
I hope you know by now that the spirit that breathes and lives in you belongs to your maker, your Father in heaven, who made heaven and earth.
So, what have you been covering that spirit with?
What God-like features can the world see on you when you speak and when you act? Are you really your Father’s child?
Undoubtedly, there is none like God for he is God alone and He alone is God.
But His word tells us how we are to portray ourselves as the sons and daughters of Royalty that we are indeed. Our father is the King above all kings and Lord above all gods. How we wear our God is so very important in our walk with Him. Except, wearing God starts from within. It begins from the inside out. The colors of love, the patterns of kindness, and the fabric of compassion are all styles of our Most High God. What style you got on?
This most certainly trickle down to the placement of actual clothing we use to cover our body, which cradles the spirit of God by the way. (We need that reminder as often as possible!)
Sister-girl, are you wearing that dress to honor the ‘curvaceous’ masterpiece that is God’s temple? or are you simply trying to outline all there is to unwrap without too much effort? Once again, “watchu got on?”
Brother-man, the waist can hold your pants just fine, and that muscle shirt won’t complain if it is tucked neatly under a sweater or nice-looking spacious shirt. “Watchu got on?”
Friend, you are rightfully the reflection of the One who made you. We are here to give Him ALL the glory and honor and praise. There is a reason behind your good looks and attractiveness too. God is beautiful, as you are made in His image. So why not wear what you really are so the world can truly see God’s work through and through?
My prayer for us today is that the Lord above grants us the courage and determination to put on the attributes we were gracefully created with. May the temptations and desires to be anything else be trampled today under the powerful might of God in Jesus name. Amen.
