“This gospel unveils a continual revelation of God’s righteousness—a perfect righteousness given to us when we believe. And it moves us from receiving life through faith, to the power of living by faith. This is what the Scripture means when it says: “We are right with God through life-giving faith!” Romans 1:17 TPT
The gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is the only avenue for the revelation of the righteousness of God. You cannot become the righteousness of God without receiving the gospel. So, what is the gospel? The gospel is the good news of the finished works of Jesus Christ (Christ’s life, death, and resurrection) that, when anyone believes without their own good works, they are transformed into saints.
The gospel is the only way humanity is transformed into divinity; it’s the only way natural men can become children of the Almighty God. It’s the only way sinners are turned into saints, and the only way man can become a member and part of the deity without their religious duties. Powerful!
Whenever this gospel of the Kingdom is presented and taught, the righteousness of faith is revealed, lives are transformed, people are healed, habits are broken, relationships are restored, and burdens are lifted and destroyed. It’s the message of righteousness in the gospel that energizes it to give salvation to those who believe it.
The righteousness of faith, as revealed by the gospel, is rooted in faith and love. Everything you do, from giving to prayer, fasting, and serving in church, is a direct result of faith and the love of Christ in your heart. As 1 John 4:19 states, we love Him because He first loved us. This love is reciprocated based on His faith and love in our hearts. Praise the Lord!
CONFESSION
The righteousness I live by, is the righteousness of faith. It produces life, power, healing, freedom, and restoration in me. As I believe the gospel, burdens are lifted, habits are broken, and my life is continually transformed. Hallelujah
