God, Our Righteousness
By Rev.
Kenneth E. Hagin
"Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto
all and upon all them that believe..." (Rom. 3:22).
To be a complete overcomer - to walk in the highest kind of faith - you
must know the reality of your own righteousness in Christ.
Read Romans 3:21-26. Mark these scriptures in your Bible. Think on them
- feed on them - until they become a part of your inner-consciousness.
If your Bible is a King James Version, keep in mind that the same Greek
word which is translated in verse 26 as "just" (and other forms thereof)
can also be translated "righteous." So you may substitute the word
"righteous" for "just." Many translations read this way.
For example, Young's Literal Translation of the Bible translates Romans
3:26 this way, "for the shewing forth of His [God's] righteousness in
the present time, for His being righteous, and declaring him righteous
who is of the faith of Jesus."
What do these scriptures tell us? That God Himself is righteous. And
that God has declared us to be righteous because we have believed in
Jesus.
Confession: God the Father declared Himself righteous through Jesus
Christ. And God the Father - my very own Father - declares me righteous,
for I believe in Jesus. Therefore, I am righteous. I am a recipient of
the righteousness of God.
