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.
To fully understand the concept of surrendering all, we must take a deeper dive into the issue, because the natural thing for the Christian to do is to focus heavily on what we must do. Even though it is a fact that cooperation is needed on our part, we need to understand that there is no cooperation without us looking. The following narrative points out in the clearest terms what God does, and what we need to do in the surrendering process.
And if we were to grasp the truth in the matter, we would realize that God has indeed made the process of surrender simple. As we read, look for those things God will be doing and the things the recipient of the healing must do. What God does, and what the recipients of healing must do will be highlighted, and if we were to adopt the instruction given, we’ll discover that it is indeed possible to surrender all.
Zechariah 3:2 And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan; even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?…. Most, if not all of satan’s accusations against Joshua and the Jews he represented were true even though he would exaggerate them in the grossest light, for he would not waste his time and God’s in bringing a false report.
Zechariah 3:3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
