It's me again God,
It's so wonderful to have this time to tune into what You need to remind me of today. These are the most precious moments of my day and in a sense, they lay the foundation for how I will live this day. I could easily just go off with my own agenda but I know that things generally don't end well when I do that!
Moment by moment, I remember that despite my failings, which are many, I am righteous through everything You have done Jesus! Thank You so much that I can read these words from Romans and know that as a believer, I have received the most incredible gift ever! This makes such a difference to how I will live today:
"But now, independently of the law, the righteousness of God is tangible and brought to light through Jesus, the Anointed One. This is the righteousness that the Scriptures prophesied would come. It is God's righteousness made visible through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ. And now all who believe in him receive that gift. For there is really no difference between us, for we all have sinned and are in need of the glory of God. Yet through his powerful declaration of acquittal, God freely gives away his righteousness. His gift of love and favor now cascades over us, all because Jesus, the Anointed One, has liberated us from the guilt, punishment, and power of sin!"
Romans 3:21-24 TPT
Thank You Father that Your righteousness is something that I can see and experience through my faith in Jesus. Thank You Jesus for Your faithfulness to the end as You took the punishment for every one of my sins as You hung on the cross. Thank You Father that because of this one amazing act of love, I am free and pronounced 'not guilty'! I have Jesus' righteousness!
What wonderful love and grace has been shown to me! I love the way this passage in the Passion Translation says that Your 'gift of love and favour cascade over me'! Thank You that Your righteousness covers all my sins from the smallest to what I consider the most terrible! Thank You Father that because of Jesus, You see me just as if I had never sinned. Please help me to remember this as I go through this day. I AM LIBERATED FROM THE GUILT, PUNISHMENT AND POWER OF SIN!
Rejoicing in Jesus' Name,
Amen!
