THE MIRICLE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS 6-1-25 VIDEO righteousness empowers us
Through Jesus, we have all received a miracle. We’ve been made righteous by our faith in Him. Nothing can ever snatch us away from Him. We’ve gone from death to life. No one can be righteous by their own actions. Righteousness is a miracle sent to us by the Holy Spirit. The righteous are those whose faith and love for God causes them to live their lives, depending on God‘s kindness.
PS 140:13 Your godly ones will thank you no matter what happens. For they choose and cherish your presence above everything else! TPT
PROV 8:20 I lead you into the ways of righteousness to discover the paths of true justice.
21 Those who love me gain great wealth and a glorious inheritance, and I will fill their lives with treasures.” TPT
ISA 53:11 After the great anguish of his soul, he will see light and be fully satisfied. By knowing him, the righteous one, my servant will make many to be righteous, because he, their sin-bearer, carried away their sins.
12 So I, Yahweh, will assign him a portion among a great multitude, and he will triumph and divide the spoils of victory with his mighty ones —all because he poured out his life-blood to death. He was counted among the worst of sinners, yet he carried sin’s burden for many and intercedes for those who are rebels. TPT
1 JN 3:7 Delightfully loved children, don’t let anyone divert you from this truth. The person who keeps doing what is right proves that he is righteous before God, even as the Messiah is righteous.
8 But the one who indulges in a sinful life is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God was revealed was to undo and destroy the works of the devil.
9 Everyone who is truly God’s child will refuse to keep sinning because God’s seed remains within him, and he is unable to continue sinning because he has been fathered by God himself.
10 Here is how God’s children can be clearly distinguished from the children of the Evil One. Anyone who does not demonstrate righteousness and show love to fellow believers is not living with God as his source. TPT
GEN 15:6 And Abram trusted every word Yahweh had spoken! And because of his faith, Yahweh credited it to him as righteousness. TPT ↓↓↓
Gen 15:6 And he believed! Believed God! God declared him “Set-Right-with-God.” MSG
ROM 4:3 Scripture is clear, “Abraham believed what God believed about him and that concluded his righteousness.”
4 There is a large difference between a reward and a gift: if you have earned something through hard work, what you receive in return is your due and certainly not a gift.
5 It is clear then that someone who believes that God declares the ungodly innocent understands that it is faith and not our toil that accounts for righteousness.
6 David confirms this principle when he speaks of the blessedness of the one who discovers God’s approval without any reference to something specific that they had done to qualify themselves.
7 Oh what happy progress one makes with the weight of sin and guilt removed and one’s slate wiped clean!
8 “How blessed is the one who receives a receipt instead of an invoice for their sins.” MIRROR
Gal 3:6 These things happen among you just as they happened with Abraham? He believed God, and that act of belief was turned into a life that was right with God.
7 Is it not obvious to you that persons who put their trust in Christ (not persons who put their trust in the law!) are like Abraham: children of faith?
8 It was all laid out beforehand in Scripture that God would set things right with non-Jews by faith. Scripture anticipated this in the promise to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed in you.”
9 So those now who live by faith are blessed along with Abraham, who lived by faith — this is no new doctrine! MSG

GAL 3:6 Abraham had no other claim to righteousness but simply believing what God declared concerning him! Isaac confirmed God’s faith, not Abraham’s efforts. This is all we have in common with Abraham.
7 The conclusion is clear; faith and not flesh relates us to Abraham!
8 Scripture records prophetically that the mass of non-Jewish nations would be justified by faith and not by their own ability to be righteous. This announcement by God over Abraham is the gospel in advance. God saw every nation included in the same principle of the faith that Abraham pioneered. “In you all the nations of the earth are equally represented in the blessing of faith.
9 As did Abraham so do we now find our source in the blessing of faith. MIRROR
2 COR 5:21 This is the divine exchange: he who knew no sin embraced our distortion; he appeared to be without form; this was the mystery of God’s prophetic poetry. He was disguised in our distorted image and marred with our iniquities; he took our sorrows, our pain and our shame to his grave and birthed his righteousness in us. He took our sins and we became his innocence. MIRROR

2 Cor 5:21 How? you say. In Christ. God put the wrong on him who never did anything wrong, so we could be put right with God. MSG
1 John 2:29 Once you’re convinced that he is right and righteous, you’ll recognize that all who practice righteousness are God’s true children. MSG

1 JN 2:29 To perceive God’s righteousness as defining his “I-am-ness”, concludes that everyone born of him inherently partakes of the same pattern and poetry that his righteousness inspires. Righteousness is our true genesis. MIRROR
John 3:7 “So don’t be so surprised when I tell you that you have to be ‘born from above’ — out of this world, so to speak. MSG

Prov 21:3 Clean living before God and justice with our neighbors mean far more to God than religious performance. MSG
Matt 5:19 Whoever then breaks or does away with or relaxes one of the least [important] of these commandments and teaches men so shall be called least [important] in the kingdom of heaven, but he who practices them and teaches others to do so shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness (your uprightness and your right standing with God) is more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. AMP
2 TIM 2:22 The best way to consistently escape the snare and distractions of youthful lusts, which are often typified by an all-consuming longing for forbidden pleasures, is to pursue and engage your life actively in everything that celebrates your redeemed oneness. Instead of a sin-consciousness, cultivate a righteousness-consciousness. MIRROR
1 Cor 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame. KJV
GAL 2:20 My old identity has been co-crucified with Christ and no longer lives. And now the essence of this new life is no longer mine, for the Anointed One lives his life through me—we live in union as one! My new life is empowered by the faith of the Son of God who loves me so much that he gave himself for me, dispensing his life into mine!
21 So that is why I don’t view God’s grace as something peripheral. For if keeping the law could release God’s righteousness to us, then Christ would have died for nothing.

MATT 13:43 Then the righteous will shine like the brightness of the sun in their Father’s kingdom realm. If you’re able to understand this, then you’d better respond!” TPT ↓↓↓
