RAIN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

 

FOCUS: THE RAIN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.

SCRIPTURAL FOCUS : HOSEA 10:12, ISAIAH 45:8

WHAT IS RIGHTEOUSNESS

• Righteousness is loving what God loves and hating what God hates (Ps.45:6-7)
It is complete alignment with God in all things

• Righteousness is taking a stand for right irrespective of who is taking the opposite stand (Ex. 32:26)
It is standing for what is right even if it means standing alone

• Righteousness is living with a pure, clear and lively conscience (Acts 24:16; 1Tim. 4:2)
Always have a conscience that is awake

• Righteousness is living by the principles of God rather than the principles or standards of the world (Eccl. 12:13)
It is living by the rules of the Kingdom of God and not by the rules of the systems of the earth

• Righteousness is living for God instead of living for self (Phil. 1:21)
It is making God the centre of your life and not making yourself the centre of your life


Righteousness is our spiritual gene.
Righteousness is not just a state of right standing with God but a true picture of who we are in Christ Jesus.

Note that:
1. Existing in righteousness is existing in your original design.

2. Existing in righteousness is existing in a realm where your life gives glory to God

3. Nothing gives you advantage on earth like activating the original you.

4. When your righteousness is visible, the Glory is visible (Isa. 2:2)

5. The habitation of holiness is also the habitation of Glory (Isa. 63:15)
Anywhere holiness can be found, Glory can be found

.6. The availability of holiness is the establishment of gloriousness (Ex. 15:11)
Whatever is holy must experience glory

7. The availability of sin/iniquity will result in the bankruptcy of the Glory (Rom. 3:23)

PRODUCTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

1. Righteousness commands existence in peace (Ps. 37:37)

2. Righteousness helps you to exist in utter wellness and empowers you to enjoy good (Is. 3:10)

3. Righteousness gives you boldness in the place of prayer (Heb. 4;16)

4. Righteousness elevates, promotes and exalts you ( Pro. 14:34)

5. Anointing and lifting above your contemporaries (Ps. 45:6-8; Gen. 37:2,5-7, 41:39-44; Dan. 1:8, 2:48; Ex. 32:26; Gen. 49:5-7; Num. 25:7, 10-13)
Righteousness brings God oil upon your life.

6. Satisfaction and fulfilment in life (Ps. 45:7, 51:10-12; Luke 10:17; Ps. 35:27)
You cannot be on the path of righteousness and escape joy and gladness

7. The fragrance of Divine favour and acceptance (Ps. 45:7-8; 5:12; Dan. 1:8-9; Esth. 2:15; Prov. 14:9)
You don’t have to compromise to get favour; there is favour you get by character and integrity

As you live you life all for God in 2022 and beyond the blessings of righteousness will be evident in your life
