Revelation 12:10-11
Then I heard a loud voice shouting across the heavens,“ It has come at last— salvation and power and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers and sisters has been thrown down to earth— the one who accuses them before our God day and night.And they have defeated him by the blood of the Lamb and by their testimony. And they did not love their lives so much that they were afraid to die.

This man is like a burning stick that has been snatched from the fire.”Jeshua’s clothing was filthy as he stood there before the angel.So the angel said to the others standing there,“ Take off his filthy clothes.” And turning to Jeshua he said,“ See, I have taken away your sins, and now I am giving you these fine new clothes.”

My servant Job will pray for you, and I will accept his prayer on your behalf.

Job 22:6-30
“ For example, you must have lent money to your friend and demanded clothing as security. Yes, you stripped him to the bone.You must have refused water for the thirsty and food for the hungry.You probably think the land belongs to the powerful and only the privileged have a right to it!You must have sent widows away empty handed and crushed the hopes of orphans.That is why you are surrounded by traps and tremble from sudden fears.That is why you cannot see in the darkness, and waves of water cover you.“ God is so great— higher than the heavens, higher than the farthest stars.But you reply,‘ That’s why God can’t see what I am doing! How can he judge through the thick darkness?For thick clouds swirl about him, and he cannot see us. He is way up there, walking on the vault of heaven.’“ Will you continue on the old paths where evil people have walked?They were snatched away in the prime of life, the foundations of their lives washed away.For they said to God,‘ Leave us alone! What can the Almighty do to us?’Yet he was the one who filled their homes with good things, so I will have nothing to do with that kind of thinking.“ The righteous will be happy to see the wicked destroyed, and the innocent will laugh in contempt.They will say,‘ See how our enemies have been destroyed. The last of them have been consumed in the fire.’“ Submit to God, and you will have peace; then things will go well for you.Listen to his instructions, and store them in your heart.If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored— so clean up your life.If you give up your lust for money and throw your precious gold into the river,the Almighty himself will be your treasure. He will be your precious silver!“ Then you will take delight in the Almighty and look up to God.You will pray to him, and he will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows to him.You will succeed in whatever you choose to do, and light will shine on the road ahead of you.If people are in trouble and you say,‘ Help them,’ God will save them.Even sinners will be rescued; they will be rescued because your hands are pure.”
