The Righteousness Of Faith

Apostle Grace Lubega

Romans 10:6-8(KJV); But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach.

When we speak of the righteousness of Faith, it is not only about that which has removed the sin question.

Righteousness also defines the place of how we stand in the face of the Almighty God.

This righteousness of faith is what makes you RIGHT before God; not merely in the moral sense but with regard to the power and authority He has given to you as a new creature in Christ.

Your nature is incorruptible (1 Peter 1:23); it is for this reason that God has trusted you with such great power and glory.

He knows that you cannot use that power and authority for vice.

He trusts you to know what to do when you meet a lame man because in your execution of divine healing power, you are right!

He trusts you to know what to do in the face of adversity because in your execution of divine judgment, you are right.

PRAYER: Father God, I thank you for the precious gift of righteousness. Thank you for the power and authority in my hands. I  walk in the boldness of the knowledge that I am right when I choose to heal the sick, to cast out demons, to demonstrate power and to walk in the supernatural. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
