Confessing Your Righteousness Pleases God

How far can you go when you fail?
Do you divert your attention and party?

Ask for God's forgiveness or lock youself in your room
and contemplate?

Whenever these things strike you.
I have learned, it's how you deal with the situation
that matters the most.

You have a free choice.
Maybe you can just shrug your shoulders off and move on.
Pray intently so you'll receive God's wisdom.
Drink beer.
Take a walk.
Talk it out with a friend.

So many things to do actually.


But


Me?

I know I am not perfect because my bad circumstances
are always there to remind me of how life here on earth
is so messed up.

What do I do everytime I messed it all up over and over again?

I just keep saying ...

" I am the righteousness of God in Christ..."

It gives me a very refreshing feeling.

Everytime I feel I am so bad, judgmental, very impatient with things
and some people, frustrated on some thing and all..

that verse lifts me up each time I fall..

Nobody can truly love us for who and what we are except God.

Thru Jesus' blood we have become so perfect inspite of all our imperfections.

Isn't that a good news???!

I will just keep praising Him because of what He has done for you and me.

I am forever grateful ...and everyday, each time I fail and commit mistakes

I can say boldy,

"I am the Righteousness of God in Christ!"

Confessing Your Righteousness Pleases God


Romans 10:6
6... the righteousness of faith speaks...

Every time you confess, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ”, God the Father is pleased. When you confess that you are the righteousness of God in Christ, it reminds Him of what His Son has done for you to become righteous.

Also, by making you righteous, God is showing Himself righteous — “to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus”. (Romans 3:26)

Each time Jesus hears you confess, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ,” it brings much pleasure to His heart too, because you are laying hold of what He suffered and died to give you.

The Holy Spirit, who now indwells you to convict you of righteousness (John 16:10), also rejoices when you confess, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ.” He is pleased when you flow with Him.

The delight of the Godhead is not the only thing you gain when you declare, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ.” The Bible tells us that when you “seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness… all these things shall be added to you”. (Matthew 6:33)

Whether it is food, clothing or other necessities in life, “all these things” will be added to you. They will not just be given to you, but added to you as your inheritance when you seek first His righteousness.

You don’t need to use your faith for every single need in life. You just need to use your faith for one thing — to believe that you are the righteousness of God in Christ, and it will cause all the blessings you seek to come after you and overtake you!
