RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE THROUGH CHRIST

Psalm.89.14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; mercy and loving-kindness and truth go before Your face. (AMP)

Partiality can not be found anywhere on God's throne. He will never compromise truth and holiness to accommodate the madness and wickedness of man.

That is why in Isaiah 59, the very people God chose and saved lost connection with Him.

Isaiah.59.1-2,8-9 Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear....... The way of peace they do not know; there is no justice in their paths. They have turned them into crooked roads; no one who walks in them will know peace. Justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We look for light, but all is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows.

Because righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne, the same should be with us if we want to walk with and dwell in the presence of God. 

But many people see these as impossible to achieve. Some have tried to attain them but are not seeing the fruit and presence of God. Here is the reason why;

They don't appreciate that the righteousness that God wants is a free gift from God received through Jesus Christ. And that justice is a nature received in the new life in Jesus Christ.

What I mean is that they do things try to please God instead of allowing God to make them what He wants them to be. Whenever God created anything, He looked at it and said it was good.

The righteousness and justice that God wants is birthed from the presence of Christ and His word in us. In the same way mercy and loving-kindness and truth come to us.

Hallelujah!
