THE BLESSINGS AND POWER OF BEING THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD

Romans 5:17, James 5:16, Isaiah 32:17, 1Samuel 2:9a For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) *Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. *And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance forever. *He will keep the feet of his saints…

As a believer, your consciousness that you are righteous is a major game changer in your life. First of all, every single blessing of the righteous or blessing of the saints that you find in the scriptures, are now your portion. God will not forsake His saints, but preserve them, (Psa.37:28). God preserves the souls of His saints and delivers them out of the hand of the wicked, (Psa.97:10). The saints of God possess the kingdom and the judgment is always in their favour, (Dan.7:18, 21-22). The Holy Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God, (Rom.8:27). In Christ, God has qualified you to be a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light, (Col.1:12).

Righteousness is a major dimension of the armour of God, (Eph.6:14). Just as a breastplate protects the major organs that keep the body alive, your consciousness that you are righteous protects your conscience and your spiritual life. When your conscience is perfected by your understanding that you are righteous, you are able to draw nearer to God (Heb.10:22) and you don’t read negative meanings to your challenges. Instead, you declare that many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers him from them all, (Psa.34:19). The righteous is as bold as a lion, (Prov.28:1). You will exercise greater boldness and dominion in every area of your life and you will be able to pray effectively, (James 5:16).

The more you are conscious that you are righteous, the more you will manifest works of righteousness and your life will be filled with the fruits of righteousness, (Phil.1:11). By the Spirit, God will increase the fruits of your righteousness, (2Cor.9:10, Eph.5:9). For it is God who works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure, (Phil.2:13).

Faith Declaration:

In Christ, I am righteous and I enjoy every blessing of the saints. I am bold, I pray effectively and I manifest the fruits of righteousness.
