What we wear is what we transmit
Ezekiel 44:15-19 NASB
[15] “But the Levitical priests, the sons of Zadok, who kept charge of My sanctuary when the sons of Israel went astray from Me, shall come near to Me to minister to Me; and they shall stand before Me to offer Me the fat and the blood,” declares the Lord GOD. [16] “They shall enter My sanctuary; they shall come near to My table to minister to Me and keep My charge. [17] It shall be that when they enter at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and wool shall not be on them while they are ministering in the gates of the inner court and in the house. [18] Linen turbans shall be on their heads and linen undergarments shall be on their loins; they shall not gird themselves with anything which makes them sweat. [19] 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 shall put on other garments so that they will not transmit holiness to the people with their garments.
Notice the last half of verse 19 where it says, “then they shall put on other garments so that they will not transmit holiness to the people with their garments.” What we wear, or what rests on us is what we transmit to others. When someone comes into your presence or into a room full of people and depression, hopelessness, anger, or anxiety and fear are resting on them than what they are wearing transmits to you and those around you. It shifts the atmosphere. Haven’t you been with someone before who carries a lot of rejection and neediness for attention and notice how they suck the emotional air totally out of a room. They simply shift the atmosphere, and any peace that was there, retreats. When holiness rest on you then holiness is transmitted to others around you and draws them in. Because we are in union with Jesus we are in Christ and Christ is in us, therefore Christ is both resting in us, and He is resting on us. Even though this is true, and has been true since the moment you were born again, there is a principal of manifestation that we must remember, and that is “we manifest what we are conscious of.” Sadly many Christians do not live in a faith consciousness of the abiding Christ in them and on them, and therefore there is no true manifestation because manifestation happens in the context of our participating humanity. Only as we participate in faith in that which is true about us in Christ is it manifested through us to people. We may be in union with Christ, but we still manifest what we are conscious of. That’s why it’s so important that we become aware of the living Christ abiding in and on us, and that we live with a conscious expectation of the manifestation of his life in us and on us, in private, and in public, always looking for harvesting opportunities. When a person walks into a room manifesting the presence of Jesus, then it totally changes the atmosphere around them by transmitting the anointing of His presence to the people, drawing them in to the anointing Jesus carries. To consciously by faith, depend, on and manifest His presence, will is what it means to put on Christ, or to put on the new self.
(Romans 13:14 NASB)
“But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.”
Ephesians 4:23-24 NASB
[23] and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, [24] and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.
By the way, of course, the more you spend time hanging out in His presence behind the veil, beholding His face, the more you cultivate a consciousness of faith in His presence that will manifests and transmits His presence.
