Things to Put On According to the Scriptures

The following scriptures are action scriptures that tell us to put on something.  If you are jumping out of an airplane, you will want to PUT ON your parachute.  Let's see what we need to put on to jump into our day.


OT
"I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; My justice was like a robe and a turban.
·         Isaiah 51:9 NAS
Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD ; Awake as in the days of old, the generations of long ago. Was it not You who cut Rahab in pieces, Who pierced the dragon ?
·         Isaiah 59:17 NAS
He put on righteousness like a breastplate, And a helmet of salvation on His head ; And He put on garments of vengeance for clothing And wrapped Himself with zeal as a mantle.
"When the priests enter, then they shall not go out into the outer court from the sanctuary without laying there their garments in which they minister, for they are holy. They shall put on other garments ; then they shall approach that which is for the people."
·         Ezekiel 44:19 NAS
"When they go out into the outer court, into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments in which they have been ministering and lay them in the holy chambers ; then they shallput on other garments so that they will not transmit holiness to the people with their garments.  

My pondering (So does our garments that we PUT ON spiritually transmit holiness?)  HMMM


NT
But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.
·         1 Corinthians 15:53 NAS
For this perishable must put on the imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality.
·         1 Corinthians 15:54 NAS
But when this perishable will have put on the imperishable, and this mortal will have put onimmortality, then will come about the saying that is written, "DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP in victory.
·         Ephesians 4:24 NAS
and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.
·         Ephesians 6:11 NAS
Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.
·         Ephesians 6:14 NAS
Stand firm therefore, HAVING GIRDED YOUR LOINS WITH TRUTH, and HAVING PUT ON THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS,
·         Colossians 3:1 NAS
[Put On the New Self] Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
·         Colossians 3:10 NAS
and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him-
·         Colossians 3:12 NAS
So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience ;
·         Colossians 3:14 NAS
Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity.
·         1 Thessalonians 5:8 NAS
But since we are of the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet, the hope of salvation.
