Righteousness is the ability to stand before a holy God without any sense of inferiority, guilt or shame of any kind
Righteousness is the justification of right deeds before God. the character or quality of being right or just Conforming to the revealed will of God. Reading from the Book of Romans 4:2-4 and Verse 4 “For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth” .it simply means believing in Christ is Righteousness.
it is important to know that, God alone is excellent in righteousness, perfect in holiness and without any guilt of sin. No wonder in the book of Isaiah 64:6… “all our righteousness are as filthy rags” but this statement does not mean we cannot live a righteous life. Already, we have an advocate who stands in the gap for us which is Jesus Christ.
Therefore, believing and Confessing Jesus with faith from your heart simply qualifies you as the Righteousness of God. I Cor 1:30 … “Christ Jesus … has been made unto us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption”. So Jesus Paid the Price for our Righteousness and All we have to do is to have a right standing with God.
GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS
God is a Righteous father John 17:25. Righteousness and judgment are the habitation (foundation) of His throne Psalms 97:2
God ‘s Love is Righteousness Psalms 33:4-5.verse 5 “He loveth righteousness and judgement”
Only God can name the Righteous Isaiah 62:2
God call people in His Righteousness Isaiah 42:6
We can see that Righteousness is God’s agenda for a change of Glory and ever winning victories. no wonder the bible say it is only when we seek the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness then only we can have access into the Glory, Riches, Honor, power , Favor and Grace of God among all other things God has promise to them that love him and walk as his righteous on this earth…
Memorise: My son, hear the instruction of thy father, And forsake not the law of
thy mother: Proverbs 1:8
Read: Ephesians 6:1-3, 6 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
2 Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;
3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
Bible in one year: John 4:30-5:18, Job 30:16-23
The Bible teaches that children have mandatory responsibilities to their parents. As a matter of fact, Children owe their parents certain important duties that include the obligation to respect honour and obey them. Children are the heritage of the Lord and God has a special interest in their well-being. Meanwhile God is a disciplinarian as revealed in Revelation 3:19
“As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.”
God has decided to commit the discipline of children to their parents as caretakers for Him; therefore, children must cooperate with their parents to make easy for their own benefit. Obedience in this respect attracts long life and prosperity.
If you invested so much in your children, but have retired and they are gainfully employed, yet they ignore you, will you be happy with them? Some fathers have placed curses on their children for neglecting them. A righteous child will not neglect his parents at any time. He will make sure that those of them that are not saved are led to Jesus. After al, that is the greatest gift he can give them. Besides that, he will ensure that they have a roof over their heads and their needs are met in the area of feeding, clothing, healthcare, etc
God has joined children to their parents as partners in progress. For two people to work in agreement, they must see and mind the same thing. They must be focused on the same goal.
God’s focus is that children have parents that will be godly examples to them, while making efforts to bring them up in the way of the Lord. God wants parents that will introduce their children to Him at very tender ages, so that they may learn to obey God and become familiar with His commandments, worship and fellowship. Children should be careful not to be a source of sorrow and pain to their parents. Proverbs 17:25 says:
“A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bare him.”
I pray that God in His mercy will visit every Christian home and intervene in the life of every wayward child today in the Name of Jesus.
