*UNDERSTANDING TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS*

*Monday, June 1st*
*Pastor Chris*

_*But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify (Romans 3:21 NIV).*_

Righteousness is a word many use without a proper understanding of what it means. The world can’t define righteousness; it must be understood from God’s perspective. How can a man who isn’t righteous describe righteousness? It’s impossible to define what you’ve never known or experienced.

For many, righteousness is reduced to moral uprightness, often an exaggerated view of personal conduct. Some consider themselves righteous in their work; others in their families or communities. But these are human attempts to define something divine.

The Scriptures tell us something important about man’s righteousness and the different kinds of righteousness that exist in the world: they’re as filthy rags: _*“But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away”*_ (Isaiah 64:6).

That means every form of righteousness that originates from man, every standard built on human effort, and every confidence grounded in personal conduct falls short before God. No matter how morally upright one may appear, it doesn’t make him righteous before God. What then is righteousness? How does a man become righteous before God?

Romans 3:21 (NIV) gives us an idea; it says, _*“But now apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been made known….”*_ This shows that there’s a righteousness from God and it isn’t based on performance or adherence to the Law. It’s something divine; it comes from God Himself.

Romans 5:17 declares: _*“For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.”*_ The righteousness from God, therefore, is a gift. It’s not achieved; it’s received.

This changes everything. You don’t try to be righteous before God; you receive His gift of righteousness. It’s not about your efforts; it’s about what He has made available in Christ. This is the righteousness that qualifies you, empowers you, and brings you into right standing with God. We’ll explore this some more in our next study.

*CONFESSION*

*I’m the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Righteousness is my nature. I walk in the consciousness of my right standing, free from guilt, condemnation, and inferiority. I reign in life through Christ, expressing His nature and fulfilling His will in Jesus’ Name. Hallelujah!*

*FURTHER STUDY*
*‭‭Romans 3:25-26 NIV God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— [26] he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.*

*‭‭2 Corinthians 5:21 KJV For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.*

*‭‭Romans 10:1-3 KJV Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. [2] For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. [3] For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.*

*THE KINDNESS OF GOD*

*Sunday, May 31st*
*Pastor Chris*

_*And the king said, Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may shew the kindness of God unto him?... (2 Samuel 9:3).*_

In the Old Testament, the word translated “mercy” comes from the Hebrew word “hesed.” It means lovingkindness, but more specifically, it is covenant kindness; kindness rooted in covenant, not in merit. The example of David and Jonathan’s son, Mephibosheth, gives us a clear and practical picture of how covenant mercy works (2 Samuel 9).

Long after Jonathan’s death and well into his reign as king, David was moved by the covenant he had made with Jonathan. He asked a deliberate question: _*“…Is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul, that I may shew him kindness for Jonathan's sake?”*_ (2 Samuel 9:1).

David wasn’t asking if there was someone he could merely acknowledge. The word “shew” used means to demonstrate. David was looking for someone to whom he could practically and visibly demonstrate covenant kindness. In fact, in the 3rd verse, David called it the “kindness of God.” How profound!

Mephibosheth was lame in both feet and practically abandoned and forgotten by most. However, he was summoned to the king’s presence. But when he came before David, he fell on his face in fear. He expected judgment from the king who had succeeded his grandfather, King Saul.

But David’s first words were “Fear not”; that’s always the language of mercy. David restored to him all the land that had belonged to Saul and then offered him something greater still: a permanent place at the king’s table. This was covenant kindness, which David called “the kindness of God.”

Why did he call it the kindness of God? It’s because covenant kindness is shown toward someone who has no merit or claim to it. That person doesn’t qualify. True mercy flows from the greater to the lesser. By virtue of that mercy, the one with nothing is brought into royalty, lifted, honoured, and seated at the table, just as we are today seated together with Christ. This is the transforming power of covenant kindness.

It reminds of the Scripture: _*“He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory...”*_ (1 Samuel 2:8). Perhaps there’s someone coming to your spirit even now that requires your covenant kindness; go ahead and show that one the kindness of God.

*PRAYER*

*Dear Father, I thank you for your covenant kindness and mercy toward me. I receive your lovingkindness with understanding and gratitude. I live in the consciousness of your mercy, enjoying the life of honour, fellowship and provision that you have brought me into, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*

*FURTHER STUDY*
*‭‭Psalm 36:7 KJV How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.*

*‭‭Isaiah 54:10 NKJV For the mountains shall depart And the hills be removed, But My kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed," Says the LORD, who has mercy on you.*

*‭‭2 Samuel 9:5-8 KJV Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel, from Lo–debar. [6] Now when Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, was come unto David, he fell on his face, and did reverence. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he answered, Behold thy servant! [7] And David said unto him, Fear not: for I will surely shew thee kindness for Jonathan thy father's sake, and will restore thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat bread at my table continually. [8] And he bowed himself, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am?*

*SUCCESS, VICTORY AND INCREASE*

*Saturday, May 30th*
*Pastor Chris*

_*And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity] (Psalm 1:3 AMPC).*_

God never produces failures. When a person is united with Christ, he or she steps into a life designed only for success, victory and increase. The nature of God in you produces excellence, progress and greatness. It’s the reality of the new creation life.

I came into this understanding very early. I was born again before I was nine years old and began to preach the Gospel not long after. I started winning my friends to Christ, and shortly after I was ten, I began a fellowship. By fifteen, I was already holding crusades. I have walked this path long enough to know beyond any argument that the Word works.

When God sets you on course and your mind is stayed on Him, the Word declares that He will keep you in perfect peace because you trust in Him. That peace is the peace of prosperity, a life that continually moves forward. The Scripture also says concerning the one who’s in Christ: Whatsoever he does shall prosper.

That’s the destiny of the one who lives by the Word; we saw that in our opening scripture. The one who doesn’t follow the advice of the ungodly is blessed. Some people allow ungodly friends, relatives, or neighbours to shape their decisions; no!

The blessed man delights in the Word of God and meditates on it day and night. He gives attention to the Word, and the Word shapes his life. The result is extraordinary: He becomes like a tree planted by the rivers of water, bearing fruit in season, and his leaf doesn’t wither; that means no failure with you. What a life!

When you give yourself to the Word, it programmes you for a one-way journey in life—upward and forward only. The Word is seed, and meditating on it keeps it deeply rooted in your spirit to govern your mentality such that you think success, victory, and glory only. Your life becomes the demonstration of the Word, causing you to have good success (Joshua 1:8). Hallelujah.

*PRAYER*

*Dear Father, I thank you for the life of unending success that you’ve given me in Christ. Your Word works mightily in me, producing excellence, prosperity and victory; I heap success upon success. I think the Word, speak the Word and walk in the light of the Word every day, in Jesus Name. Amen.*

*FURTHER STUDY*
*‭‭Joshua 1:8 AMPC This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success.*

*‭‭3 John 1:2 KJV Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.*

*‭‭Proverbs 4:20-22 KJV My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. [21] Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. [22] For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.*

*GRACE, MERCY, AND PEACE*

*Friday, May 29th*
*Pastor Chris*

_*Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ... (2 John 1:3).*_

In several of the apostolic letters, the Spirit emphasizes a powerful benediction. For example, in some of Paul’s writings, he opens with the words, “grace, mercy, and peace, as in 1 Timothy 1:2, _*“...Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.”*_ He repeats the same blessing in his second letter to Timothy and again to Titus.

The apostle John echoes it as well: _*“Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ...”*_ (2 John 1:3). Why did the apostles consistently pronounce grace, mercy, and peace? It’s because of their profound importance in the Christian life.

The Scriptures reveal men and women who found grace in the sight of God. Noah, for example, found grace before the Lord even when judgment was determined upon the earth. Genesis 6:8 tells us, _*“But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.”*_ Grace positioned him for preservation and victory. This shows that when grace locates a man, mercy follows.

Grace, mercy and peace work together. Romans 5:1-2 connects our peace with God to the grace of Jesus Christ in which we stand: _*“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand….”*_

When you find grace in God’s sight, He becomes merciful toward you. Hebrews 4:16 says, _*“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”*_ Grace is divine favour extended to you. It’s God’s work upon a person’s life.

In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word is “chen” and it means God’s gracious favour. Through that grace, through that act of divine favour, He exerts His influence upon your life to see to it that you succeed. His grace works upon your mind, helping you to think the right thoughts. It influences your heart and guides you to make the right decisions, beyond your natural ability or human intelligence.

Grace covers you, shields you, protects you, and keeps you from grave errors. Walk in this consciousness. You’re not left to your human ingenuity and ability alone; the influence of heaven is upon your life, directing your steps and causing you to produce results that exceed natural capacity. This is the life God has given you in Christ.

*PRAYER*

*Dear Father, I thank you for your abundant grace, mercy, and peace at work in my life. Your divine influence guides my thoughts, decisions and actions, leading me in the path of success and righteousness, established in victory, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

*FURTHER STUDY*
*‭‭Hebrews 4:16 AMPC Let us then fearlessly and confidently and boldly draw near to the throne of grace (the throne of God's unmerited favor to us sinners), that we may receive mercy [for our failures] and find grace to help in good time for every need [appropriate help and well-timed help, coming just when we need it].*

*‭‭2 Timothy 1:2 KJV To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.*

*‭‭2 Corinthians 9:8 KJV And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:*

*‭‭Titus 1:4 KJV To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.*

*PRESERVED BY HIS DIVINE POWER*

*Thursday, May 28th*
*Pastor Chris*

_*For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).*_

Our opening scripture clearly outlines fear as a phenomenon that’s not part of your spiritual nature or make-up. So, if you ever sense fear trying to take a hold of you, refuse it. In studying the Scriptures, you’d notice that whenever the Lord appeared to anyone in Bible days, often, His first words were “Fear not” as you’d observe in Isaiah 41:10, Joshua 1:9, and Revelation 1:17.

He commands us to refuse fear regardless of what is happening in the world. You carry the seal of God upon your life; a divine decree that separates you from everything that hurts or binds. You’re separated unto God. Remember the words of the Master: _*“…whosoever believeth in him should not perish...”*_ (John 3:16).

That’s because His seal of protection is on you (Ephesians 1:13). Always declare boldly, _*“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?”*_ (Psalm 27:1).

You carry the glory of salvation with you. You don’t get into trouble, looking for escape; with every problem or danger, salvation is present; deliverance is sure. Before the challenge appears, you’re already ahead in victory. So, as you go about your life, ministry, and daily routine, let nothing frighten or intimidate you.

If circumstances look threatening, remember who you are: more than a conqueror (Romans 8:37). The Lord Himself is your salvation. You’re preserved by His divine power, shielded by His presence, and marked for endless triumph. 2 Corinthians 2:14 says, _*“Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ….”*_ Hallelujah!

Therefore, live boldly and purposefully; speak with authority. Walk in the consciousness that you’re not of this world. The life in you is superior to every crisis, and the Spirit of God in you keeps you above harm. The Bible says, _*“…greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world”*_ (1 John 4:4).

*CONFESSION*

*The Lord is my refuge and my strength, my salvation, in whom I’m shielded and preserved from all evil. His life in me is superior to every crisis and keeps me permanently over and above everything that hurts or binds. I have the spirit of power, love and a sound mind. Hallelujah!*

*FURTHER STUDY*
*‭‭Psalm 27:1-6 KJV The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? [2] When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. [3] Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. [4] One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. [5] For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. [6] And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.*

*‭‭Isaiah 41:10-12 KJV Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. [11] Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish. [12] Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.*

*‭‭1 John 4:18 KJV There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.*

*AFFIRM GOD’S WORD OVER THE NATIONS*

*Wednesday, May 27th*
*Pastor Chris*

_*For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith (1 John 5:4).*_

Today, there’re systems and voices in the world that present themselves as guides to the nations, yet their ideas have brought confusion, hardship and economic destruction to many countries. These are organizations that claimed to offer solutions but instead misled leaders, crippled economies, and plunged nations into unnecessary debts.

Many governments, in times of global crisis, followed these voices without discernment, and the results were devastating. The Scripture already warned us about such influences: _*“They are of the world, therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them"*_ (1 John 4:5).

But thanks be unto God! We’re not helpless spectators in the earth. As the Church of Jesus Christ, we have authority; we rule and we change things. Through prayer and the exercise of our faith, we’re able to dismantle the agenda of darkness. No organisation, ideology, or structure can control the nations as long as we take our place and stand against them in faith.

Our responsibility is to stand in the Spirit and affirm God’s Word over the nations and their leaders. Declare His peace and prosperity over the nations. He told us to do it: Luke 10:5-6, _*“And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house. And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.”*_

We have amazing authority in His name to bless the nations: _*“By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted…”*_ (Proverbs 11:11). Through our words of blessing, the cities and nations of the world are exalted. They’re lifted from the thraldom of deception, economic woes and debt into the destinies that God ordained for them.

Through our faith and intercession, the will of God prevails in the earth. Therefore, keep praying for the nations and their leaders. As you do, the forces of darkness and their agendas will be subdued, and righteousness will be established in the nations. Declare that the leaders are not deceived and that divine wisdom guides them to lead their nations out of illegal and oppressive debts, and ungodly control. Hallelujah.

*CONFESSION*

*The nations are delivered from deception, and their leaders receive divine wisdom to promote and establish the righteousness of God in their lands. The agenda of the enemy for the nations of the world is frustrated and by the authority of the Name of the Lord Jesus, the triumph of Christ is enforced in every nation. Amen.*

*FURTHER STUDY*
*‭‭James 5:16 AMPC Confess to one another therefore your faults (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray [also] for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].*

*‭‭1 John 4:4-5 KJV Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. [5] They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.*

*‭‭1 Timothy 2:1-4 KJV I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; [2] For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. [3] For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; [4] Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.*

YOU’RE A SUCCESS

Tuesday, May 26th

Pastor Chris

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success (Joshua 1:8).

An orange seed may look small and unimpressive, but inside it is the capacity to produce an orange tree that’ll in turn produce multiplied fruits with several seeds in them. Everything the orange tree will ever be is already contained in that seed. The seed doesn’t need to “become” an orange; it’s already one. It only needs the right environment for what’s already inside it to manifest.

If that orange seed had a mouth and said, “I’m an orange,” someone might reply, “You don’t look like an orange; stop bragging.” But the seed isn’t lying or bragging; it carries the orange nature; put it in the right environment and see.

That was how I saw myself when I was still a teenager. I found out I was a success forever because the life of God, His seed, was in me, and I started declaring it and went ahead to start holding “Success in Life Seminars.” I would say, “I’m a success,” and some people wondered, “What’s he talking about?” But I knew.

I wasn’t saying it because I had already done everything I wanted to do. I was saying it because I understood what was inside me. That’s the life Christ has given us; you’re a success going somewhere to happen. Those who don’t know you may say you’re not but that’s because they don’t know your real identity. They don’t understand the work of God in your life.

You’re God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for endless victories, glory and excellence (Ephesians 2:10). His Word says concerning you that whatsoever you do prospers (Psalm 1:3). Stay in the Word and live true to your identity, and what God has put inside you will manifest in every place.



Dear Father, I thank you for the truth of your Word that reveals my identity. I live with the consciousness of victory and success, and I manifest the realities of Christ in my life. My faith prevails, and my results are a reflection of your glory and righteousness in my spirit, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

*FURTHER STUDY*
Joshua 1:8 AMPC This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success.

Psalm 1:1-3 KJV Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. [2] But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. [3] And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

*HE MADE US GREAT AND MADE US KINGS*

*Monday, May 25th*
*Pastor Chris*

_*And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing (Genesis 12:2).*_

Some people struggle with the idea of greatness. They resist it because it sounds excessive or inappropriate. So they say, “Don’t talk about me being great; that’s too much.” But God made us great because we’re the seed of Abraham. Our greatness was His idea; we didn’t ask for it.

It wasn’t Abraham who said, “...O, God, make me great.” It was God who said to Abraham, _*“...I will bless thee, and make thy name great...”*_ (Genesis 12:2). So, as a Christian, when you shrink back from greatness, it’s incongruous with your identity and with God’s plan for your life. Ponder the fact that God reiterated with unmistakable clarity in Genesis 17:6 what He had said in Genesis 12:2, _*“And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee”*_ (Genesis 17:6).

Observe that it says, “Kings shall come out of thee.” This is consistent with what the Scripture reveals about us in Christ: _*“…much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ”*_ (Romans 5:17). The literal sense of the word “reign” in the verse above is to “king.” It’s the verb of kingship.

Therefore, you could say, “They which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall king in life by Jesus Christ.” And it gets even stronger. The Bible says He has _*“…made us kings and priests unto God and his Father...”*_ (Revelation 1:6). Our title as kings isn’t futuristic but a present-moment reality. He has made us kings.

What do kings do? They rule and reign. They exercise authority and dominion in their realm. This is why you must never talk like a victim, act helpless, or see yourself as ordinary. You’re great, and you’re a king. The Bible says, _*“Where the word of a king is, there is power…”*_ (Ecclesiastes 8:4). Kings don’t beg or grovel; they speak with authority. They comport themselves with dignity. Kings manifest royalty.

Every so often, say, “I know who I am; I’m great, and I’m a king. I reign and rule in life.” You’re not trying to hype yourself when you say this but merely affirming what God has done, who He’s made you. It’s your identity; He made you great and made you a king.

*PRAYER*

*Dear Father, I thank you for your blessing and greatness at work in my life. I walk in the consciousness of who I am in Christ, reigning in life by your gift of grace and righteousness. My words carry power, my life reflects dominion, and I manifest your glory everywhere, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*

*FURTHER STUDY*
*‭‭Romans 5:17 AMPC For if because of one man's trespass (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one, much more surely will those who receive [God's] overflowing grace (unmerited favor) and the free gift of righteousness [putting them into right standing with Himself] reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).*

*‭‭Revelation 5:10 KJV And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.*

*‭‭Genesis 12:1-3 KJV Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: [2] And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: [3] And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.*
