How Righteousness Speaks

"But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into Heaven? (That is to bring Christ down from above: Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) But what saith it? The Word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the Word of faith, which we preach; that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on Him shall not be ashamed" Romans 10:8-11

A-men, we don’t have to go up to Heaven and get Jesus to come down here to help us! We don’t have to bombard the Gates of Heaven with our prayers to get our Father's attention! Our salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior gives us direct access and unity with God. Jesus hasn’t just given us access to God either; He has made us one with Him, just as He is One with Him! We are now members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bone. We are now the Holy habitation of God Himself. God’s righteousness cries out from within us that He is always with us, that He is in our hearts, that we have His Spirit, that we have the mind of His Anointing, that He is our Father, and that we are now one with Him here on this earth! “And because ye are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then a heir of God through Christ.” Galatians 4:6-7

Our conversation should reflect these absolute Truth’s! There is never a situation, good or bad, when we are separated from our Father. And out of the abundance of our hearts our mouths will speak! Now our hearts are filled with God Himself and the Truth’s that He has filled us with will set forth His righteous works in our lives! We are a glorious church without spot, wrinkle, or blemish and greater is He that is in us than anything that is in the world! And we through the power of the Holy Spirit we are strengthened to talk and act like it!
