CAN CHRISTIANS MINISTER TO THE LORD WITH SATAN
CAN CHRISTIANS MINISTER TO THE LORD WITH SATAN
SCRIPTURE
Zechariah 3: 1
And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. 3. Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.
Beloved, ministering to the Lord with Satan means you are ministering and Satan is accompany you in your ministration. How can a child of God be ministering and Satan is standing with him/her?
From our anchor scripture we discovered that Joshua who was a high priest not just a priest but Chief priest was ministering with Satan because he was wearing a filthy garment! That garment invited Satan (garment depicts our clothing or uniform).
You cannot be a soldier and be on civilian uniform in a battle field! In the battles of life we have been given a garment that is called garment of righteousness (Isa.61:10, Rev. 19:8). When it is stain with sin Satan is naturally invited to stand with you while you minister to the Lord.
Like the song of *Elisha Goodman* that says:
Have you been to Jesus for His cleansing power
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb
Are you trusting in His grace this hour
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Are you washed (are you washed) in the blood (in the blood)
In the soul cleansing blood of the Lamb
Are your garments spotless are they white as snow
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Lay aside these garments that are stained with sin
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb.
There’s a fountain Flowing for the soul unclean
Oh be washed in the blood of the Lamb
Beloved, it doesn't matter what kind of sin stain your garment, it doesn't matter how long it has been stained come to the cleansing blood of Jesus and be clean. Your service in a defiled garment goes no where! Your songs, praises, prayers goes no where with Satan resisting you. If God has to change the garment of Joshua the high priest, then we must change our garment to stop ministering with Satan.
Prayer
Lord, thank you for your word, whatever stain my garment I present it for cleansing! I can no longer minister with Satan in Jesus name.
