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

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.

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
