Day 21 "You Are Righteous"
Good Morning Beauties!
Do you struggle to do enough right things to please God? Do you keep track of the right things and hope they are more than the wrong things you do? Of course we don’t actually keep score on paper, but in our minds. This type of living is how the enemy keeps us bound by the law.
There is good news my sisters! Jesus came so that we are no longer slaves to the law, but have been freed by faith. We no longer have to strive to be good enough, do good enough - He’s already done the work for us. Our only thing to do is to believe in Him, and the atoning work on the cross.
Paul writes to the Philippians in 3:8-9, “Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the priceless gain of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have put aside all else, counting it worth less than nothing, in order that I can have Christ, and become one with him, no longer counting on being saved by being good enough or by obeying God’s laws, but by trusting Christ to save me; for God’s way of making us right with himself depends on faith—counting on Christ alone.”
Are you ready to lay down the burden of trying to be good enough and receive Jesus’ gift of grace? Are you ready to accept that He has made you righteous? Selah.
Love and Blessings,
