YOU ARE RIGHTEOUS IN CHRIST

YOU ARE RIGHTEOUS IN CHRIST

MEMORY VERSE: - 2 Corinthians 5:21 - "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."

It's a pity that many are in Christ but do not know who they are in Him and do not know what God has done for them through the sacrifice of Jesus. God made us righteous in Christ, He put in us His own righteousness that gives us the power to have right standing with Him. It is called imputed or added righteousness. It is a righteousness given to every individual in Christ as a free gift because of our union with Him.

As God's righteous children, He has given us the grace that will help us to live out this righteousness in us and if we want to enjoy all the beautiful packages that God has in store for us and if we want to be able to resist the devil we must continue in the path of this righteousness in us.

Listen, the believer who keeps to his or her righteousness gladdens the heart of God and nothing good is withheld from such a person. The scripture says, "The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; (Zephaniah 3:17). In righteousness is power. It empowers us to withstand the enemy without fear or timidity.

The truth is that whenever we are living in error we give room for the enemy to have something on us, and in such case you cannot exercise authority over him because he has a hold on you. But when you are living out God's righteousness in you, the enemy has no openings to come in. Jesus in John 14:30 Said, "The prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me".

Furthermore, righteousness gives us the ability and boldness to confront and conquer the enemy. It is both a weapon that fights against the enemy and a shield of protection. Wherefore, the scripture says, ".....We use the weapons of righteousness in the right hand for attack and the left hand for defense." (2 Corinthians 6:7).

Understand that the devil is afraid of the righteous believers and even more afraid of those who know their rights and authority in Christ and use it in righteousness.


PRAYER

Thank you father for giving me your righteousness, I pray that you help me to maintain and keep up steps with it, in Jesus name, Amen.

ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN 4

  AbayeLiz Daily Inspirational ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN 4 MEMORY VERSE: - - Jude 1:9 - "But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil (Satan), and arguing about the body of Moses, did not dare bring an abusive condemnation against him, but [simply] said, “The Lord rebuke you!” Now, this accuser never stops until you stop him. Look at how he stood against Moses even in death he still went after him. And stood against his body from ascending to God's glorious presence. But thank God for the angel who never gave up but disputed with him and conquered him. Oh, beloved, you don't give up for the accuser but you counter him with the Word. You stand on what God has written concerning you and contend with him and take what's rightfully yours in Christ. That is to say, you bring forth your strong reasons and silent him and release yourself and all that is yours from his bondage.  Now, the reason for which the devil stood against Moses body was deu to his ...

MEMBERS OF GOD'S FAMILY 2

  AbayeLiz Daily Inspirational MEMBERS OF GOD'S FAMILY 2 MEMORY VERSE: - 2 Corinthians 3:6 - “He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.” Like I said in the part one of this topic, Jesus did not come to bring another religion but to bring sons and daughters unto the Father.  Religion is nothing but an ideology, but relationship and family is the real thing. Wherefore, Christ has enabled us to be children of God by the Spirit not of laws (religion). The old written covenant ends in death; but under the new covenant, the Spirit gives life. Living in religion kills but being a man or woman of relationship gives life. What Satan is using to rob people of their right to experiencing God's full package for them is religion.  Religion is a mock, a counterfeit, and a deception. But that which God offers us is relationship by the power of the Spirit.  Christianity is not in reli...

KEEP YOUR PRAYER FLAME BURNING

KEEP YOUR PRAYER FLAME BURNING MEMORY VERSE: - Leviticus 6:12 - "The fire on the altar is to be kept burning; it must not go out....." If there's anything the devil does not want you to do; it is to pray and if there's anything he wants you to do its to not pray. He will do anything to distract you from praying because he knows what prayer power is for you and what it does to him. Prayer is the power that turns things around in your favor, it causes a tremendous change in your circumstances, it makes the impossible to become possible in your life. It's a pity that some people are too lazy to pray, whilst some are too busy to find time to pray. Listen, he or she that doesn't pray is empty and fireless. Thus, they are easy prey for the enemy.  You must pray at all times if you want to make a headway in life, you must keep the flem of prayer burning if you want to live the Overcomers life. Force yourself to pray when you don't feel like praying because there...
