Your Righteousness Revealed by Faith

Your Righteousness Revealed by Faith

The moment you receive Jesus you are made Complete, Whole, Righteous.




It is at this point I often hear questions and statements that usually begin with 'Yeah But'.




Individuals still have to come to grip with, understand and walk in God's everlasting Grace.




Coming from a world that says -




Do this - Get that
Pay this - receive that
Change this - Become that




It is transactional, in other words you only get out of life what you put in. and therefore see themselves limited by the works of their own hands.




BUT




If this is the case what if you make a mistake?
Are you going to have to wear the consequences now and for eternity?




As a Christian, a Believer, a Follower of Christ you are not subject to the Law of Moses, the Law of Business or the rules of the Natural World.




Then what are you subject to?




The Debt for your past, and the owings for your future were paid in full with no exceptions at the Cross by Jesus. What a merciful act!

 But God's Grace does not just balance your account, Jesus bought an excess, an insurmountable provision that you account is Full of every Blessing of God.




That is -




What God has, so do you.




The problem is looking at Grace through natural eyes. I understand that immediate thoughts can be along the lines of




'How come I cant see these things such as my Eternal Life, Complete Health, Prosperity, Acceptance, Love?'




To have them revealed in your life or made 'manifest' requires Faith.




Paul says this well -




Romans 1:7



17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, 
“The just shall live by faith.”



Looking at this writing it does not say you need Faith to 'get' the promises of God.



You being justified by Christ the promises of God are already in you, on you and surrounding you. But it is Faith that makes these beautiful gifts from God, that you have already received become visible and tangible.



Paul Writes this above as






'the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith'






so not for one minute do you need to place limits on yourself, you have already received all you need plus more. you have received so much that you can use this blessing to impact others financially, emotionally and Spiritually, all the while by the Grace of God, and as a Righteous Man or Woman.






Be Blessed and Know that all I have mentioned is out of the greatest Gift of Love available and the Source of all you will ever need and beyond is from Jesus




You are the righteousness of God in Christ.

Are You Hearing Who You Really Are?






I'm glad you've chosen to read my Blog and I am certain that I can I can guide you to understand the reality of

Who You Are and


Who you Are in Christ


The Problem

People Do not Have Correct knowledge of Who they are

Why?

Because they have a skewed view of Who God is.

So is this a case of which came first the chicken or the egg or rather:

 Is the basis of My Perceived Identify  due to . . .

How I See God?

or is

How I See God  a Result of How I see Myself?

In Reality it is both

Firstly

How you see yourself can create barriers between You and Our Loving Father

Why?

If You don't like yourself the mind is inclined to reject or deny the love, care and provision of others.

On The Flip Side

A seemingly self Confident Person who thinks, "Everything I Need or Want I Can Get" Has A Very Limited understanding of who God is and how much more He has for them.

 In many cases this is a defence mechanism. Why?

They are trying to protect their ego because they do not see themselves in the correct light.

In short it is this Identity Crisis in this Relationship that causes wrong or limited, perspectives.

So Do You Continue on Confused? or For the Most Part Not Even Knowing Anything is Wrong?

No

You Need to Build Faith

Through Hearing the Truth

and Repenting ....

Now Repenting is not what you see in the movies and is not a nonsensical self depricating activity

Iit quite simply from the Ancient Greek 'metanoia' means - to change ones mind







How Do You Change Your Mind?

Faith or Right Believing

Romans 10:17

So Faith Comes by Hearing, and Hearing the Word of God

2 Timothy 3:16

All Scripture is Given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction for Instruction in Righteousness


 From this comes Right Teaching in Particular  as above stated Instruction in Righteousness.

So I encourage You Share my Journey,

Learn Who You Are
Who God is
The Goodness He has for You
And What The Gift of Grace has Already Purchased for You.
