[3]And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

CENTRAL TRUTH: God’s blessings are released to those who pursue righteousness
INTRODUCTION: According to Romans 3:10 not one of what is righteous. We are all sinners Romans 3:23. The moment to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, God stops seeing you as a sinner. When God looks to you, he sees you in the righteousness of his son Ephesians 1:6. We can put on the breastplate of righteousness by living right as much as you possibly can. True righteousness in the Lord’s eyes includes humility, selflessness and living by faith in Him
