The Unseen Clothes

Monday, June 15, 2020

In Exodus 28, the Lord speaks about the dress of the priests of Israel. The instructions not only cover the outer clothes, but the inner clothes. The priests had to wear holy undergarments. Even though no one would see them, even these undergarments, had to be holy. What does that tell us? The Bible says that you, who are born again are a member in God's holy priesthood. And as a priest of God, you must wear holy undergarments. The undergarments were the part of the priestly garments which no one saw. It was the most private part and the most secret. What does it tell you? As a priest of God, the Lord's holiness must be the same in your secret life as in your public life. As holy as you are in public, so you must be in secret, in the sanctuary or alone with no one seeing you. The holiness of God must permeate every facet of your life, even your secret life, and so much so that you have nothing to hide. Make that your aim. For just as holy as the priest's breastplate and crown was his holy underwear.
