‘You are not good enough. You do not deserve anything. You fell down again. Why can’t you stay out of sin? You were warned about that, do you have a problem obeying? Look, Jesus, look at your so called believer. Ha! They cannot do a thing you have asked of them.’ Any of this sound familiar to your spirit? It does to mine. The Accuser, the enemy, the Father of Lies comes to the presence of the King and night and day, stands and tells of our failures and faults.
The thing about the Accuser standing before the Judge is that he is telling the truth. We are sinful, we do fail, we do fall, and we do spit on the cross with our flesh. But, in the midst of the enemy spitting out his dirt on us, the Father turns and looks at His Son, our Intercessor, our Savior, our Redeemer. Jesus stands before the Sovereign Judge, and He shows Him the scars, the holes, the blood. See, the Accuser comes, but we overcome him by the blood of the Lamb, clean, forgiven.
Joshua stood before the Lord, Satan right on his heels. Joshua was clothed in filthy rags. But, the Lord called for the old garments to be exchanged for new raiment. Taking the sin off him and clothing him with righteousness. That is exactly what the Lord does for us. We are not worthy to stand at the throne. But, Jesus is! Jesus saves! We were cursed under the law of sin, but Jesus took that curse and went to the cross. It is the Great Exchange!
The enemy can come and do his worst over us, but he was defeated by Calvary. Case closed!!!!
(Rev. 12:10,11 Zech. 3:1-4, Gal. 3:10,13, Is. 64:6)
