Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city.

 Right to the tree of life:

 

Revelation 22:14

14     Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city.

     

            We have washed our robes when we asked Jesus to come into our lives and take control. The robes we wore before that were as filthy rags. We have the right to the tree of life. Adam had that right, but he relinquished it when he ate of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. What he could have had, we can have. This says that we may also enter by the gates into that City. The Bible talks about certain types who do not have that right. We blood bought believers have the right to enter.

 

If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what He would say:

            "You are no longer filthy because of the things of the world that had contaminated you. You are clean and pure in My sight. You have cleansed yourself from the stains of the world and have been set free to follow Me. You are precious in My sight, and I have chosen you to walk in My perfection in pure white garments. Do not allow the things of the world to control you and to blemish your garments. Walk with Me in your white garments and feel My power flowing through you. You will rejoice with Me in My righteousness when I return to take you home.”

 

            92. I have washed my robes, and so I have the right to the tree of life in the City of God. I can enter the gates of the city with my head held high because of what He has accomplished in me.
