THE POWER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
SCRIPTURE: Blessed is the man who walketh not in
the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor
sitteth in the seat of the scornful but his delight is in the lord and
in his law doth he meditate day and night and he shall be like a tree
planted by the rivers of water… Psalms 1:1-3
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: When a man has a right standing with God, he can stand before any devil.
Righteousness means to be holy and in right standing with God. A
righteous person is a person living a life that is pleasing and
acceptable to God. Being righteous does not only entail escaping hell
and making heaven; it is the way of life of every child of God.
It is important to know that there is power in righteousness. God
is committed to the blessing of the righteous. The blessing and favour
of God upon the righteous is also a shield (Psalms 5:12).
Unrighteousness on other hand, can render a man useless.
What then are the benefits of righteousness?
1.Divine favour: Favour is the exclusive preserve of the righteous.
God extended favour to Noah on the platform of righteousness (Genesis
7:1).
2.Supernatural flourishing and success: Righteousness makes a man to flourish effortlessly (Psalms 1:1-3).
3.Authority and boldness of heart: When a man has a right standing with God, he can stand before any devil (1 Kings 17:1).
A major key to living a life of righteousness is the continuous intake of the Word of God.
Beloved, consciously load your heart and spirit with the Word of God in order to be uncomfortable with compromise.
Remember this: When a man has a right standing with God, he can stand before any devil
