Blind To Your Faults? by kpakpandoN(m): 6:28am On Jun 27, 2013
Zechariah 3:1-7 relays an incident where Joshua d high priest stood 2 offer some sacrifice bt he was clothed wit filthy garment nd Satan stood @ his right hand 2 resist him.Dis tells us dat weneva we re nt properly clothed in God's righteousness nd we want 2 offer sumtin - an offerin or sacrifice 2 God,dere wil surely b some formidable resistance 4rm d kingdom of darkness.D filth on Joshua's garment gave Satan legal right 2 withstand his offerin.4rm dis we also learn dat nt all sacrifices re accepted 2 God.Some sacrifices re rejected,some re accepted while some odas re contested.Mind hw u re clothed b4 u go 2 offer anytin b4 God! Meanwhile,it took anoda prophet - Zechariah 2 reveal d state of d high priest.Joshua was arrayed in filthy garments bt he did nt even notice it.Revelation3:14-18 says dat it is possible 2 b blind nd think u hav d best of sight.Pple hav illusions abt deir present state.Dis is very dangerous-to think u re rich,successful nd progressive whereas d opposite is d case.Ironically,many reject such a message nd see it as being sent 2 some1 else oda dan demselves,dis is rather unfortunate.Going by wat d Lord told d Pharisees in John 9:40-41,it takes d blind fellow 2 admit his state of blindness b4 he can receive help 4rm d Lord.As long as u think u re okay,u wil never b better dan wat u re.It is ur feelin of inadequacy dat would drive u on ur knees 2 request divine assistance.In addition,we see a crowd 2 whom d high priest was ministerin;who saw d priest in filthy garment bt none of dem could point it out 2 him.Dis means dat pple see wat d leader may nt see bt dey need 2 inform d leader or help him wit love.Some leaders never give deir associates or members d opportunity 2 correct dem in love,probably bcus dey present a front as if all is well,or dat dey know everytin.Hebrews 12:1 tells us of d cloud of witnesses in Heaven who re keepin tabs on wat we re doin.Dey see wat we don't see bt sumday,we shal unite wit dem in Heaven:will u b dere on dat day?
