LOVE AND RIGHTEOUSNESS


For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).


PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD.


In our previous study, we talked about the gift of eternal life that’s imparted to be born again. Now, that wonderful gift of eternal life comes with two associate virtues: love and righteousness. You can’t get them anywhere else. Upon receiving eternal life, the love of God is automatically shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5).


Christ in you means the nature of God is in you, and God's nature is love. The Bible says, “...God is love...” (1 John 4:16). That love resides in your spirit; your responsibility is to let that love flow through you. 2 Corinthians 5:19 says, "To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation." Having reached out to us in love through Christ, He has given us the ministry of reconciliation, to win others and bring them into His love.


The second thing is righteousness; Christ has made you righteous. Ephesians 4:24 says you were created in righteousness and true holiness. Romans 5:18-19 says, “Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.” Think about that!


With all the sins you’ve ever committed, with all the evil you may have done, Jesus Christ, the Righteous One, gives you His righteousness. Now you can stand in the presence of God just like He does. You have become as pure as He is—washed, sanctified, justified in the Name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of God. And having received this divine nature of righteousness, you reign in life through Jesus Christ. Hallelujah!


PRAYER 


Dear Father, I thank you for your liquid love that’s shed abroad in my heart, and the gift of righteousness by which I reign in life through Jesus Christ. I live in the power of your love and righteousness. Thank you for making me holy and blameless; I walk in the consciousness of this truth, in Jesus’ Name. Amen...... click on the link below to study yesterday's Rhapsody of Realities

FURTHER STUDY


Romans 5:5; And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.


2 Corinthians 5:21; 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.


Isaiah 61:10  I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.

Testimony Of How I Got Born Again. REV TOM AMENKHIENAN. Pastor Chris Led Me To Salvation.

  JESUS LOVES ME! HE HAD MY LIFE ALL PLANNED OUT. I was born into a Roman Catholic family setting, with a strong influence of the Roman Catholic culture running through the entire family because my maternal Grandparents had been very committed and recognized leaders in the Roman Catholic Church. I was baptized and confirmed at an early age and soon enlisted as an Altar Boy (Mass Server). At this early age, the Priests and Reverend Fathers in charge of our local assembly (mostly foreigners, especially from Ireland), deliberately sought to groom, tailor and mentor me in the direction of becoming a Roman Catholic Priest, encouraging me to attend the Seminary once I came of age. I grew up with this background and was indoctrinated in it until I had my first encounter with another Christian Group in my Secondary School days when a group from the Scripture Union organized a fellowship in our school and preached the gospel to me. I attended a few of their fellowship meetings and tried to ...

FAITH'S PROCLAMATIONS OF HEALING AND HEALTH

 MONDAY, 21ST AUGUST 2023 SPEAK 🗣️ The Bible says in 3 John 1:2, “Beloved I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.”   The same Spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead lives in me; it’s impossible for me to be brought down by sickness.  I declare that I’m a new creation, born superior to Satan and all the demons of darkness. I’m an offspring of divinity and a product of Christ’s resurrection!  I’m a partaker of the divine nature and I dwell in Zion; therefore, I don’t get sick. I’m born for health, success, and the glory of God!  No weapon fashioned against me shall prosper because my body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. I’m complete in Christ Jesus, and I’ve been perfected through my union with Him.   I’ve been created for good works and predestinated for the good life; there is nothing wrong in my body.  I’ve got everything I require for an excellent life, and sickness is not a part ...
