“Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.”
Isaiah 52:2 KJV
Isaiah calls for Zion to rejoice. Arise and shake off your dust! Sit enthroned, Jerusalem! Break off your shackles of bondage from your neck, you captive daughter of Zion! This dust is our “dust nature” received from Adam. The first man was from the dust of the earth which we need to crucify; the second Man is Yeshua in Whose image and likeness we have been born again. Now we clothe ourselves in Christ. Part of satan’s curse is that he was to eat dust. Whatever we withhold from God becomes food for the serpent. We shake off the “dust” of our old life and rise up in our new life, enthroned with Jesus Christ. We are overcomers, Hallelujah!
