DEVOTIONAL FOR SUNDAY YOU ARE RIGHTEOUS BY FAITH ROM 10:3For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. BELOVED, RIGHTEOUSNESS HAS BEEN GIVEN TO YOU AS A GIFT THROUGH THE FINISHED WORK OF CHRIST. I KNOW SOME PASTORS REALLY FIND THIS DIFFICULT TO ACCEPT. THEY PREACH THAT, FOR YOU TO BE RIGHTEOUS YOU HAVE TO DO THIS AND DONT DO THAT. WHAT THEY DONT UNDERSTAND IS THAT THEY ARE GOING BY THE LAW OF MOSES. UNDER THE LAW OF MOSES, RIGHTEOUSNESS IS BY WORKS. IT IS YOUR WORK THAT QUALIFIES YOU. AND THE BIBLE DID TELL US THAT, NONE OF THEM BY KEEPING THE LAW ATTAINED PERFECTION. BUT UNDER GRACE, RIGHTEOUSNESS WAS GIVEN AS A GIFT. IT IS NOT BY YOUR WORKS THAT YOU EARN IT BUT BY GRACE. THEREFORE, YOU NEED NOT PUT YOURSELF IN BONDAGE BY TRYING TO OBEY THE LAW. JUSTIFICATION IN THE NEW TESTAMENT IS BY FAITH AND NOT BY WORKS. CONFESSION- I AM JUSTIFIED NOT BY MY WORKS BUT BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS. PASTOR KAYODE OPEMUYI-NEW REALMS CHURCH.
