Righteousness

Romans 3:24 (AMPC) [All] are justified and made upright and in right standing with God, freely and gratuitously by His grace (His unmerited favor and mercy), through the redemption which is [provided] in Christ Jesus.

Below is an excerpt from my book, "Go and Sin No More,” on the benefits of righteousness.

“Righteousness is defined as right standing with God.  It’s being made right with God, and the Bible calls righteousness a free gift that Jesus provided to all who are born again.  Romans 3:24 (AMPC) [All] are justified and made upright and in right standing with God, freely and gratuitously by His grace (His unmerited favor and mercy), through the redemption which is [provided] in Christ Jesus."

As we take this gift of righteousness and walk in it every day of our lives, we'll find there's no better way to live. The fruit of righteousness will manifest in so many ways.

1. Your prayers will be powerful.

2. A revelation of righteousness will empower you to rule and reign as royalty in this life.

3. A revelation of righteousness will help you grow up and eat the meat of God's Word.

4. You will be strong and courageous.

5. With a revelation of your righteousness, you will refuse to be a slave to sin. 

6. If you have a revelation of righteousness, you will receive correction and be better for it.

The more you grasp a revelation of righteousness, the better off you'll be!  Righteousness is how you're able to walk in the position ordained for you as a son and a daughter of the Most High God.
