In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression,
for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you. (ISAIAH 54:14)
To be established in something is to have that very thing as
your foundation for security. So God wants you to know, be sure of and grow in
the revelation that you are righteous by the blood of Jesus, by His perfect
sacrifice at the cross.
When you feel as if you are being tossed here and there in the
storms of life, and you begin to experience worry
and fear, remind yourself of who you are in Christ. You are the righteousness
of God in Christ and you are His righteousness!
You cannot find
definition for yourself in anything that happens around you or any work of your
hand. You have been called to part of life in the divinity. This is life is
life in the Son of God. This life releases a love that expels fear. As you give
expression to this life through your faith it manifests itself.
As you do this, you will begin to notice those negative emotions
slip off you, for when you are established in righteousness, “you shall be far
from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come
near you”! That is why God wants you to be established in righteousness. He
wants you to be free from fear, and far from oppression and terror.
So when the pressure is on, hold fast to the belief that you are
the righteousness of God in Christ. That is where no weapon formed against you
can prosper. Don’t hold on to yourself remember what Paul said in Ephesians 6 to
“be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might”
Hold fast to wisdom in you! Hold fast to righteousness in you!
Hold fast to life in you! Hold fast to success in you! Hold fast to grace in
you! Who is Jesus
As you keep believing and confessing your righteousness in
Christ, revelation will break forth and you will experience the release of
God’s miraculous provision, divine protection and blessings into your life! It
is at this point that grace takes over and makes all things good.
