Do I have any righteousness in me?
Then he (Abraham) believed in the Lord ; and He reckoned it to him as righteousness. Genesis 15:6 NASB
For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Romans 4:3 NASB
It takes belief in the One true God to have any righteousness at all. As stated above, “Abraham believed and it was credited as righteousness”.
The good news is:
If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness. Romans 8:10 NASB
Christ’s righteousness in you. Him in you makes your spirit alive. Now that is good news!
having been filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:11 NASB
and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, Philippians 3:9 NASB
How’s your faith? Faith in Christ means you are righteous in Him.
🌹 God is the righteousness in me.
Continually Seeking Him,
