Heard any rags to riches stories lately?
Someone was previously stricken by adversity and is now strengthened with success.
A life of poverty suddenly changed into wealth and prosperity.
All things are possible; even the down and out are able to look up in hope.
Spiritually, all are paupers and dressed in rags of defilement until transformed by the LORD.

The Book of Jeremiah reveals a miraculous rags to rescue reality. (Jeremiah 38:9-13)
Enemies of the prophet had cast him into a dungeon and friend Ebedmelech approached the king requesting his release.

“So Ebed-melech took the men under his authority and went to the king’s palace to a place below the storehouse.
From there he took old rags and worn-out clothes and lowered them by ropes to Jeremiah in the cistern.
Ebed-melech the Cushite cried out to Jeremiah,
‘Place these old rags and clothes between your armpits and the ropes.’
Jeremiah did so, and they pulled him up with the ropes and lifted him out of the cistern, but he continued to stay in the guard’s courtyard (Jeremiah 38:11-13 HCSB).”
