The Flame Of Righteousness

 Matthew 6:33

You can have and live a righteous life that God is pleased with irrespective of your past, your mistakes, and poor choices/decisions from the past.

Righteousness is important to God and it should be important to you.

Righteousness is important that's why Jesus asked us to seek for it, He asked us to seek for the righteousness of God.

If it wasn't possible to get righteous Jesus wouldn't have asked us to seek for it.

The purpose of seeking for God's righteousness is to get it and make it ours.

You can seek for the righteousness of God, find it, and it becomes who you are.

You can become the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus!

2 Corinthians 5:21

Righteousness is associated with purity, it's also associated with God's kingdom

The blood of Jesus makes us clean and righteous.

Righteousness can spread, it is inspiring and contagious.

Like a flame of fire righteousness can spread from one person to another.

The righteous life is a beautiful life.

Like a single flame that spreads and grows into a wild fire with much impact, your choice for righteousness can spread, gain influence and make an impact beyond your imagination.

The righteousness of Daniel and his friends in Babylon impacted that nation and it spread in Babylon.

Daniel 2:46-49

Daniel 3:28

The righteous become citizens of God's kingdom.

The righteous will wear the white robes of righteousness and dine at the marriage supper of the lamb.

Revelation 19:8,9

Righteousness is a key to promotion, righteousness brings exaltation, righteousness brings about lifting.

Proverbs 14:34

Righteousness makes a man qualify for God's best.

Righteousness promotes and progresses our lives while sin is a reproach which can cause demotion.

Choose righteousness.

It is a beautiful thing that a sinful mortal human being can be made righteous.

This is what Jesus paid the price for.

This is what the blood of Christ does.

This is what the Spirit of God produces in a life.

If there was hope for characters like Mary Magdalene, if there was hope for the woman caught in the act of adultery, if there was hope for the woman who anointed the feet of Jesus and robbed them with her hair, if there was hope for Rahab the prostitute, then there is hope for you to be righteous.

James 2:25

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
