When we talk to God and make our requests of Him, we must understand our positions as Sons and Daughters of God, who are made Righteous through the Blood of Jesus, otherwise we may not hear Him or perceive His answers accurately. " Behold, I am he who was prepared
from the foundation of the world to redeem
my people. Behold, I am Jesus Christ. I am the Father
and the Son. In me shall all mankind have life,
and that eternally, even they who shall believe on my name; and they
shall become my sons
and my daughters." Esther 3vs 14.
Most times we feel that saying the right word or acting the right way,having the right attitudes makes you righteous, but the truth is that we cannot make our selves righteous, we can only make our selves religious. But as many as received
him, to them gave he power
to become the sons
of God, even to them that believe on
his name.John 1:12. Divine son-ship is not something we gain ourselves. Only to those who receive Christ as their Lord and Saviour is given the power to become sons and daughters of God. The sinner cannot, by any power of his own, rid himself of sin. But to achieve this, he needs to look unto a higher power.
Righteousness is not based on our "rights" but on what Jesus did for us. His righteousness becomes ours by Faith.
