Righteousness & Judgement

 Isaiah 54:14-15

Our righteousness from God has many benefits and advantages.

Righteousness is perhaps not the most exciting word for many people even Christians, it doesn't stir the kind of reaction words like prosperity, blessing, exploits, faith or wisdom does in people.

The righteousness of the believer is not human morality which doesn't please God, human morality without salvation is self righteousness.

Isaiah 64:6

The righteousness of the believer in Christ is not earned by human effort, we can't boast about achieving it by ourselves, it's not do's and don'ts.

It is put upon us by faith in Jesus Christ.

That's why there is hope for as many as come to God in repentance to receive it.

It is a reason a prostitute, even Rahab the harlot could be declared righteous.

James 2:25

Righteousness is right standing with God.

Righteousness on our lives makes God the Father view us through the lens of Jesus the Christ.

Righteousness gives you the right to use the spiritual tools of God.

One of the privileges of righteousness is the right to declare judgement, to declare judgement on evil, even judgement on the enemies of your destiny.

A righteous person before God has a heritage, an inheritance with God.

Righteousness enhances our spiritual value.

Isaiah 43:4

God hears the prayer of the righteous.

Proverbs 15:29

God honors the words of the righteous.

Our righteousness is also a protection unto us.

Ephesians 6:14

It's God's promise that He won't be on the side of the enemies of the righteous.

It's God's promise that the righteous will not be overcome in warfare.

God fights for the righteous.

It's God's promise the righteous will be wise, for He has wisdom stored up for them.

Proverbs 2:7

Righteousness gives you a basis to be bold.

Proverbs 28:1

Righteousness brings establishment and good success.

No weapon formed against the righteous is permitted to prosper.

No tongue is permitted to rise against the righteous in judgement, rather it's the righteous who have the right to condemn such tongues.

Isaiah 54:17

God's people have His righteousness, His nature.

2 Corinthians 5:21

The righteous have God's presence and protection.

Psalm 125:2

The righteous will be immovable and cannot be shaken.

Proverbs 12:3

The judgement of God is against those who rise against the righteous.

Zechariah 12:9

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination. Car drivers either buy a GPS/Navigation device system or

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus
