Sometimes when you hear the word, "righteous," you have an image of a person who follows all the rules and regulations in order to walk in a righteous way. Righteousness cannot be earned by what you do or what you say. I am the only hope you have of ever fulfilling the righteousness that My Father requires. I am your righteousness. I became sin for you so that you now are the righteousness of God in Me. Let this fact sink deep into your spirit.
No longer do you have to struggle to meet the requirements of the law. There is only one righteous requirement of the law and that requirement can only be met by Me. That righteous requirement of the law is love.
Because you have received Me as your Lord and Savior, I can fulfill the law of love through you. My Holy Spirit is given to you to enable you to love Me with all your heart and to love others as you love yourself.
Make it your goal this year to daily ask Me to help you to love as I love. My love then will begin to flow through you and many will be touched by My love.
2 CORINTHIANS 5:21; ROMANS 6:13-14; ROMANS 13:8-9
