RIGHTEOUSNESS

  RIGHTEOUSNESS 2 Corinthians 5:14-21  Devotional:- “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (V. 21) NKJV It is because of the love of God that we are called the people of God today (Romans 9:25). This has created an eternal problem for the devil. In the Old Testament, many people tried to please God, but they were not able, and this brought destruction upon them. The Bible mentioned that Jesus, when He died, went to hell to free the saints (1 Peter 3:19). These are men who had lived all their lives to obey the law, yet were not able to reach the mark of righteousness. Today, the righteousness they were not able to attain, we have effortlessly attained. This is not because we are better than they were, but because we are children born in due season.

ALL BELONG TO GOD

ALL BELONG TO GOD

Psalm 24:1-6

If anyone is possession of anything, God has given him or her the grace to possess them. This does not remove the right that God is still the owner. He can take it from us and give it to another (Matthew 25:28). That is why we must live here on earth with the fear of God.

As a steward, God expect each of us to use what he has given us for His glory and not for self or evil glory (1 Corinthians 10:31, Isaiah 42:8). God expect us to put in our best to make progress and make profits that pleases Him with what he has given us. He expect us to fulfill His purpose on earth with the privilege and the opportunity he has given us. He wants us to promote His kingdom and not the devil where he has given us charge. Peace.

Prayer- Lord, help me not to fail you in my stewardship.
