First of all, I want to thank you
for the great feedback that we got from our devotions
that you're able to do with your teenagers.
We're going to try that one more time
as we're moving closer to the school year.
Some of you have already started school.
Some of you might even be thinking about homecoming week.
So that's what we're going to kind of focus on today
Hopefully, it starts a dialogue
as it does with me and my kids
that we can just talk about
what God has to say on things.
One of the best things about high school
is that you get to dress up,
And this is especially for girls,
but I think even the boys would admit
they like wearing something special
for their homecoming week.
Now this starts when you're a little kid right,
and you put on dresses and plastic high heels
that are extremely dangerous on hard surfaces,
But boys want to be like Batman and Superman.
Well, 30 years ago a salesman
named Larry Weiss invented underoos.
You may have never had a pair.
If you don't know anything about them,
they're a kind of a top and bottom combo
that are themed after, like an underwear combo,
themed after certain superheroes.
So they started with Wonder Woman,
and now they have just about any character you can imagine.
They're still popular today.
So how does that fit in with homecoming?
I think we like to wear things that make us feel better.
It makes us feel like a superhero.
It makes us feel different.
And during homecoming, you pick out your dress
or you put on a tuxedo,
And brides, they look, and they're engaged,
they look for months or even a year
for the perfect wedding dress that they could put on.
As believers though,
there's times it does not matter what we put on.
Sometimes we're so wracked with guilt,
and we're so despondent
over the sins that we've committed.
It does not matter what we put on.
We feel terrible.
And in the Book of Isaiah,
he has, I think, a beautiful way
to talk about putting on something special.
It says,
So it does not matter how you feel on the inside.
It doesn't matter how you feel on the outside.
God is saying to you, 'All those things are wiped away.
And I am wrapping you not in a jacket of guilt,
but I'm going to wrap you in a robe of righteousness.'
As you get ready for homecoming
and pick out that perfect outfit,
think of the thing that Jesus has wrapped you in
because of his life and death and resurrection.
You're not wrapped in guilt.
You don't have to just feel special.
You know that you are special
because God has wrapped you in his perfection,
and that's the perfect outfit.
Let's pray.
Heavenly Father, we're so thankful that you covered us up with your perfection.
Help us now live as your forgiven children
wrapped in a robe of your righteousness.
In Jesus name, Amen.
Today we got to talk about
one of my favorite sections of Scripture.
As no matter how I feel on the inside,
I know I am wrapped with the robe of Jesus righteousness.
What's your favorite section of scripture?
Just put it down below.
We'd love to hear from you.
