Day 6; Globally Righteous

Scriptural texts:

"Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.  Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us"  Rom 8:33-34 KJV

"Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;  (15)  And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it". Col 2:14-15 KJV 

Considerations for today: 

The kind of acceptance and righteousness we have before the Father is of a global consequence. Being made right by God is not just of heavenly consequence. It permeates every cubic metre of our sphere of interaction. We are right before the Father. When the Father looks at us, it is Christ in us that he sees. We can come boldly before and make our most intimate feelings known to Him. We no longer need any human intermediary before God. Our case has been well represented by Jesus Christ. We are in the good books of God.

 

We are right before men. Nothing anybody says as accusation against us stands anymore. Accusation could be about what we posses or do not posses, bodily characteristics such as weight, height or complexion of skin. Neither age, sex, social class, occupation , possession or any such thing defines us anymore. The only thing that matter now is that we have become the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. God is for us, it really doesn’t matter anymore who is against us.

We are made right before principalities and powers. When Christ went to the cross he embarrassed principalities and powers triumphing over them. They thought it was a joke. They never imagined the Jesus would rise again. For if they had known they would not crucify the Lord of Glory. They did, he did and  we were set free. Now they cannot raise a finger against us because they are defeated already. None of their accusations can stand because there is no basis for them anymore. No wonder he said:

"And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you" Luk 10:18-19 KJV

Meditation scripture: Rom 8:1, Rom 8: 31

Prayer: I declare today that there is no enchantment against me. No weapon formed against me shall proper.
