Jesus Christ has become your righteousness. That’s
why in Christianity, we don’t walk in our
righteousness; rather, we declare and boldly affirm that He’s
become our righteousness. We stand in the presence of God
with the righteousness of Jesus Christ; and we walk in the light
of that righteousness.
It’s like hiding in His glory or being covered in His
glory; you’re not seen. It’s His light that’s seen; it’s His glory
that’s seen. It’s His power that’s made manifest, as you walk
in His righteousness. His own righteousness is what’s
demonstrated in your life. That’s Christianity. It’s a walk in His
righteousness.
2 Corinthians 5:21 tells us, “For he hath made him
to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made
the righteousness of God in him.” Now, you’ve become a
demonstrator of His righteousness, because He manifests His
righteousness through you! He’s the righteousness of the one
who believes in Jesus.
It’s part of what we affirm when we take the Holy
Communion. He said in 1 Corinthians 11:26, “For as often
as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the
Lord’s death till he come.” His death, burial, and resurrection
resulted in our justification. He took our place of sin, and gave
us His righteousness. This is an amazing reality!

PRAYER
Dear Father, I’m forever grateful
for the blood of Jesus which was
shed for me; his vicarious death
reconciled me to you. His blood
gave me life, and by His
resurrection I stand justified
before you forever! I thank you
for my divine life of unending
victories, excellence, and
dominion, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
