FATHER spoke in Jeremiah chapter 23:
3 “But I will gather the remnant of My flock out of all countries where I have driven them, and bring them back to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.
4 I will set up shepherds over them who will feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, nor shall they be lacking,” says the LORD.
5 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the LORD, “That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness;
A King shall reign and prosper, And execute judgment and righteousness in the earth.
6 In His days Judah will be saved, And Israel will dwell safely; Now this is His name by which He will be called:
THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. (Yĕhovah tsidqenuw)
Righteousness is the ability to stand in the presence of GOD without a sense of sin, guilt, or inferiority. FATHER desires communion with each of us thus FATHER sent forth HIS Son to redeem us from the curse of the Law. We were all born into unrighteousness but FATHER provided us the means to become righteous through the work of Our Lord Jesus Christ. All believers have accepted this first redemptive promise and we should never forget the importance of this entrance into The Kingdom for this was the first miracle performed in us when we accepted Christ into our lives. We should not downplay this first promise for it is the foundation by which we were able to become Sons and Daughters of FATHER. The Beloved Disciple wrote by THE SPIRIT in John chapter 1:
12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
FATHER gave us the right to become HIS children by this redemptive promise. This right was given out of HIS Love as recorded in John chapter 3:
16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
FATHER Loved you and me before we were righteous. Shouldn’t we Love others before they are righteous as well? FATHER took the sinless Christ and poured into Him our sins. Then, in exchange, HE pour HIS goodness into us. None of us could earn righteousness but we were given the gift through Our Lord Jesus Christ. He became the perfect sacrifice so that we could receive such a gift. Let us never take this redemptive act for granted. Paul wrote by THE SPIRIT in Romans chapter 3:
21 But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,
22 even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference;
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus
FATHER’S redemptive promises evoke change in our lives. When we align with HIS Divine Intent, we will promote change in others who have yet to receive this gift of righteousness through the blood of Jesus Christ. We must know, understand, and communicate this redemptive promise so that others will be able to stand before FATHER in righteousness. As we fully embrace this first redemptive promise which reflects one of FATHER’S Names, we will not be hesitant to come boldly to the Throne of Grace for FATHER has given us this right. Accept it in its fullest sense.
