The prophet Isaiah was clothed with a Robe of Righteousness. Although this is not a physical robe or mantle which covered Elijah and Elisha, Isaiah is still a God empowered mighty prophet. We are given a brief view of the church in Heaven in Revelation 4-5. The family of God is symbolically represented here in the 24 elders who have been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb and are clothed in “white robes.” If you are a believer in Jesus Christ you too have been clothed in a “Robe of Righteousness.” Your “Robe of Righteousness” is just as powerful if not more so than the “mantle” of Elijah and Elisha. Why? How? Jesus says, “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it (John 14:12-13).” - Ed Wrather (Covered with the Robe 07.29.14 Read devotional at burningbush click on Devotional of the Day link.)
