31st October 2022
Grace for you today !
Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory !

“Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: “I am the Lord your God, Who teaches you to profit , Who leads you by the way you should go. Oh, that you had heeded My commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, And your righteousness like the waves of the sea.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭48:17-18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

My beloved, as we come to the end of this month and the beginning of this new week, the Holy Spirit wishes to enlighten us and promises us saying, “ I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to profit..”.  Hallelujah!

I believe that in the coming days the Blessed Holy Spirit will teach us as to how to prosper in life: prosper in business, in profession, in academics, in sports, in studies, in the family, in health , in wealth etc.

My dearly beloved, let’s open our hearts and our minds to be guided by the Holy Spirit . Then we will experience His peace like the river and His righteousness like the waves of the sea in Jesus name ! Amen 🙏

Praise Jesus!

By the deeds of the law no flesh is justified!

28th October 2022
Grace for you today !
Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory !

“Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin. But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference;” Romans‬ ‭3:20-22‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

God -set -righteous- standard to mankind is clearly spelt out in the law of Moses. He didn’t set these standards expecting man to keep these because He knew that no one can keep the law at all times. There is none righteous, no not one ( Romans3:9) because by the law is the knowledge of sin ( Romans 3:20) and through the application of law manifests the strength of sin ( 1 Corinthians 15:56).

Therefore, God sent His Son Jesus, who not only kept the law all throughout His life time  but also fulfilled the requirement of the law that is expected from us all and above all, He also paid the penalty of sin for every failure of mankind  . Amen 🙏 . Thank you Lord Jesus!
When we accept this truth and believe that Jesus has met every requirement of the law in our place, we are saved from condemnation and eternal damnation .

He gave His own righteousness in exchange of our sinfulness.
When we confess that we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus  , the Holy Spirit translates us from being a victim to being a victor all the time , from striving to thriving, from condemnation to commendation, from curse to blessing, from sickness to divine health always , from poverty to prosperity, from sorrow to joy forever in Jesus name!  Amen 🙏

The law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus, works in & through me the righteousness of God!

27th October 2022
Grace for you today !
Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory !

“Now a certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭18:18-19‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

There are two personalities in conversation:
1. One who thought that he is all good and expected a pat on his back, commending “well done” for keeping all the commandments of the law of Moses and
2.The Other who truly was and is all good and yet declined to be addressed as good rather points to God who alone is good.

What a contrasting mind set of these two people who fully kept the law! However, the demarcation between these two mindsets is the God’s kind of righteousness. Hallelujah!

The first followed the principles of the law and became rich monetarily , however the Other valued God as His true riches .
The first was brought up in the system of performance and he did well perform for his own benefit but the Other kept acknowledging the Presence (Holy Spirit) of His Father in Him and went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed( Acts 10:38).

My beloved, the true righteousness of God is not following a system of set of rules and regulations ( though we ought to obey rules) but the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus is a lifestyle led by the Spirit of God in everyone who believes (“acknowledging I can’t Lord but you can do it in and through me”).

When we confess that we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus , we allow the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus to work out in us, the dynamics of the Holy Spirit and its first result is a guilt-free life , liberated from sin and death ( Romans 8:1,2) . Hallelujah! Amen 🙏

The Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus alone establishes you !

26th October 2022
Grace for you today !
Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory !

“Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭18:9, 11, 13-14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Righteousness is not how good I am in comparison with others. But, the righteousness of God is to find out how good and patient Jesus is with me.

On the other hand, we have come to discuss what’s right according to the righteousness of God than to find out what’s wrong with you.

The above summarises the teaching of Jesus in the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax collector concerning what is the true righteousness of God.

The righteousness of God in Christ Jesus brings a right balance in the swinging of the pendulum between the extremes of self righteousness and self condemnation which is typically found in every human being.

When you attribute all your achievements and goodness to His grace that works out His righteousness in you that has resulted in all these achievements and goodness, then you will surely say like Paul, “I am who I am by the grace of God “ ( 1 Corinthians 15:10).

On the other hand, when you perceive and believe that Jesus became sin with your sinfulness so that you might become righteous with His righteousness, you will surely say, “ There is now no condemnation because I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus”.

My beloved, which direction is the pendulum swinging in your life?
The righteousness of God in Christ Jesus alone can establish you in peace and prosperity against all swinging moods in Jesus name! Amen 🙏

Praise Jesus!

In the righteousness of God there is no discrimination at all !

Grace for you today ! 

Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory !

 

“A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.” Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, “How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans. Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”” John‬ ‭4:7, 9-10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

 

Discrimination on account of race, colour, caste, religion, language, country, gender or culture is because of the lack of understanding of God’s kind of Righteousness. Any person who truly seeks after or is blessed with the understanding of God’s kind of Righteousness, will never be overshadowed or be taken over by discrimination.

 

Conversation between Jesus and the Samaritan woman clearly reveals this truth.

Although being a Jew, Jesus never saw Himself above the samaritan woman whereas His country men did.

 

True evangelism is only possible when you understand God’s kind of righteousness.

On the other hand, the Samaritan woman, being victimised by such a discrimination, failed to perceive God’s set time in her life. Had she known the free gift of Righteousness, she would have received from God, the blessings in store that are far beyond her wildest imagination. She would have also escaped broken marital relationships which she suffered repeatedly for six times before she met Jesus .

 

My beloved, I write this with tears in my eyes. If only we knew Jesus and His free gift of righteousness, we would have asked Him and He would blessed us with mind blowing blessings. Even today, it is not too late. God in the person of Holy Spirit, is reaching out to offer you, Jesus the Christ and His free gift of Righteousness, to turn your sorrows into His joy, your sickness into His health, your penury into His prosperity.This is God’s set time!

Receive Jesus and His free gift of Righteousness. When nothing else works, confessing that you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus will surely work in Jesus name. Amen 🙏

Jesus took our sins & was punished for our sake so that we become the righteousness of God!

24th October 20223

Grace for you today !

Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory !

“And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for today I must stay at your house.” So he made haste and came down, and received Him joyfully. But when they saw it, they all complained, saying, “He has gone to be a guest with a man who is a sinner.”

‭‭Luke‬ ‭19:5-7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Each one has his/ her own standard as to what is right and what is wrong. But, the deceitfulness of the heart is that man sets a bar according to his own standard & convenience, so that he will ultimately escape the criticism & the judgemental views of others.

Going further, the law of Moses will locate the guilty only when the act is committed. So, according to that standard, the one who fantasies & commits sin at level of his mind goes totally scot free.

What then is the true standard of Righteousness according to God ?

Romans 3:21-24 gives us the answer. The righteousness of God is not found in the law but in the person of Jesus Christ. This is also witnessed by the Law and the Prophets.

God accepts people as right with Himself on account of Jesus because Jesus Christ alone did what God wanted according to His perfect standard. Therefore, God accepts every person who believes in Jesus Christ. It is the same standard both for the Jews and the Non-Jews.

All people have done wrong things. Nobody can be good or great, according to the standard that God wanted. But, because of God’s love for the whole human race, He sent His Son Jesus who paid for our sins so that we might become righteous and have everlasting life. This is God’s gift to us!

Everyone who accepts His gift of Righteousness is a righteous person in the sight of God, no matter what he has done.

Every person who receives this gift and confesses that he is the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, experiences transformation and exceeds even the standard of the law & it’s demands. This is exactly what happened with Zacchaeus and it shall be so to every one believes in Jesus and confesses in His righteousness! Amen 🙏

An encounter with Jesus will only reveal the righteousness of God which sets you free to sin no more!

Grace for you today ! 

Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory!

 

They said to Him, “Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses, in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what do You say?” So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.” John‬ ‭8:4-5, 7, 10-11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

 

As per the righteousness according to the law, it is right to stone the adulterous woman to death. *But, as per the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, no one is right*!

 

The righteousness by the law, requires the guilty to be punished but the righteousness of God in Jesus required the guilt to be punished on the body of Jesus whereby the guilty is acquitted. Hallelujah!

 

The righteousness of the law will definitely condemn everyone guilty, no matter how saintly he tried to live or how saintly he posed himself to be living. It is just a matter of time that true colors will come out exposing the real person. But, the righteousness of Jesus will justify even the most wretched sinner and transform him as an angel inside out*! *It’s awesome!

 

An encounter with Jesus alone will reveal the true righteousness of God. Therefore, the accused went home fully acquitted & the accusers went home convicted. Wonderful Jesus!!

 

 

My beloved, Jesus is the Righteousness of God*. He is Jehovah T’sidkenu! Everyone who believes that Jesus is their righteousness shall never be put to shame but the rest will stumble at the stumbling stone ( Romans 9:32,33).

 

I proclaim this morning that you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus! Amen 🙏

“The Lord executes righteousness And justice for all who are oppressed. He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭103:6-7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

When you hold on to His Righteousness and not your own, He makes known His ways to you and demonstrates His acts through you. Hallelujah!

Paul the Apostle during his life time, pursued after God’s righteousness and shunned his own ( Philippians 3:9). He gives a detailed list of his credentials & achievements as his own righteousness ( Philippians 3:4-6) and counted them all as loss in order to have God’s righteousness ( Philippians 3:7).

He goes on to declare that God’s Righteousness comes only through the revelation of Jesus Christ (Philippians 3:8-10).
The more the Holy Spirit reveals Jesus, the more you will understand God’s kind of Righteousness (The Right Way). The more you understand His Righteousness, the more you will experience His guidance and His miracle power. Amen 🙏

You will find His peace that passes all understanding only through His righteousness. Also you will experience His joy unspeakable, full of glory only *through His righteousness. This is ministered by the blessed Holy Spirit ( Romans 14:17).
His righteousness is His free gift to us . When you believe, receive and speak the way God declares you, that you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, you will experience all these blessing as stated above and much more in Jesus name. Amen 🙏

His righteousness crowns you with favour to reign!

“Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The Lord executes righteousness And justice for all who are oppressed.” Psalms‬ ‭103:4-6 NKJV‬‬

God crowns you with His favour and mercies so that you reign in this life: reign over sickness and diseases, reign over die- hard habits, reign over that which once reigned over you. You are predestined by God to reign in this life!

My beloved, fear cannot reign over you nor worries of life because God crowns you with His favour on basis of His righteousness. Hallelujah!
He executes Hisrighteousness to favour you! If you are oppressed in the place of work, the Lord executes His righteousness to favour you there today. No matter what is oppressing you, today the Lord executes His righteousness to crown you with favour that you may reign !

You are truly destined to reign because of God’s righteousness in Christ Jesus! This is God’s set time to reign in Jesus name !

Keep receiving the abundance of His favour through confessing that you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus!! Amen 🙏

He has forgiven all my iniquities & has healed all my diseases!

18th October 2022
Grace for you today !
Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory !

“Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases,” Psalms‬ ‭103:1-3‬ ‬‬

The word “disease” in hebrew is “tachalu” which is used only 5 times in the Old Testament and each of the 5 times it refers to some grievous and dreadful disease that causes an excruciating pain probably ending in death. People suffering from such an obnoxious disease condition will seem like that they are under a curse, resulting from sin.

The Good news is that Christ Jesus took the curse of every human being and also every kind of sickness and diseases was laid on His very body . He became sin who knew no sin, who did no sin, in Him was no sin so that you and I can become the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
In other words, when we confess that we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, we are protected from every disease and every sickness.

The righteousness of God in Christ Jesus insulates you from every harm that arises from plagues, famine, diseases whether pandemic or epidemic, from curses whether generational or not.

My beloved, I pronounce this ‘righteousness’ on everyone who is suffering & the Lord will surely restore him in Jesus name ! Amen 🙏
