THE MONTH MAY: MONTH OF EXPLORING, EXPRESSING AND ENACTING – “FAITH IN GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE unto us WISDOM, and RIGHTEOUSNESS, and SANCTIFICATION, and REDEMPTION: 31 that, according as it is written, He that GLORIETH, let him GLORY in the Lord”<\/i>\u00a01 Corinthians 1:30-31.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Month MAY is the FIFTH month of the Year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars; and\u00a0it’s\u00a0the THIRD month of seven months to have a length of\u00a031 days. Month MAY is a month of SPRING in the Northern Hemisphere and while\u00a0it’s\u00a0AUTUMN in the Southern Hemisphere. Month MAY, been the FIFTH [number 5] month, thus speaks of PERFECTING and PERFECTION which is reckoned to WHOLENESS, MATURITY, COMPLETENESS in BLESSEDNESS – just as the other numbers of 3, 7 and 9 has significance and have scriptural implications in the Christian Biblical faith-based on such numerical number’s and counting’s; and Month MAY, being of the numeric number 5 of the year calendar, indicates an opportunity in context of the Month MAY theme, for us to explore and express our – “FAITH ON GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. And may we stir up and harness graciously and gracefully this stand in grace, in order to enact, authenticate and\u00a0actualise\u00a0the FULNESS of God in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus; This will help to ensure and assure us in fulfilling God’s purpose for us in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For the BLESSEDNESS of God is only tangible\u00a0and, in our reality,\u00a0when we are exercising,\u00a0executing\u00a0and expressing “FAITH IN GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” in Christ Jesus stead. And God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus is without sentiments,\u00a0prejudice\u00a0and dissimulation (hypocrisy) to all irrespective. And with God,\u00a0there’s\u00a0no difference to all in His righteousness in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“For Christ is THE END OF THE LAW FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS to\u00a0EVERY ONE\u00a0that BELIEVETH. 5 For Moses\u00a0describeth\u00a0THE RIGHTEOUSNESS, WHICH IS OF THE LAW, That the man which doeth those things shall LIVE by them. 6 But the\u00a0RIGHTEOUSNESS\u00a0WHICH IS OF FAITH\u00a0speaketh\u00a0on this wise,\u00a0Say\u00a0not in thine heart, who shall ascend into heaven? (that\u00a0is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 or, who shall descend into the deep? (that\u00a0is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what\u00a0Saith\u00a0it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy MOUTH, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth CONFESSION is made unto SALVATION. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever BELIEVETH on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is NO DIFFERENCE between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be SAVED”<\/i>\u00a0Romans 10:4-13.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And the BLESSEDNESS of God is PURE – meaning it’s incorruptible, irreplaceable and irreversible and priceless; and it can’t be counterfeited and it gives the enabling to fulfill God’s purpose to all irrespective –\u00a0[Romans 8:28; Philippians 4:8; Proverbs 10:22; Matthew 6:19-23].<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And through this Month MAY, I will be exploring matters that will enable you to have “FAITH ON GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” in Christ Jesus stead, that will make you lift up your justified holy hands without shame, fear, wrath, doubt, inferiority and\u00a0self-pity\u00a0and cowardice and such like, as it’s written:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“I desire therefore that in every place\u00a0men\u00a0should pray, without anger or quarreling or resentment or doubt [in their minds], lifting up holy hands”<\/i>\u00a01 Timothy 2:8\/AMP Classic Edition.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Under God, I welcome you to Month MAY, wherein we can take our stand on our justified righteous stand in Christ Jesus, to rule and reign in life on this side of heaven by our God in His BLESSEDNESS.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His RIGHTEOUSNESS, and all these things shall be\u00a0<\/i>added to you”\u00a0Matthew 6:33 [Luke 12:31].<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE unto us WISDOM, and RIGHTEOUSNESS, and SANCTIFICATION, and REDEMPTION: 31 that, according as it is written, He that GLORIETH, let him GLORY in the Lord”\u00a01 Corinthians 1:30-31.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Brethren, my heart\u2019s desire and\u00a0prayer\u00a0to God for Israel is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them\u00a0witness\u00a0that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they\u00a0BEING\u00a0IGNORANT of God\u2019s righteousness, and seeking to ESTABLISH THEIR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS, have not\u00a0submitted\u00a0to THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS to everyone who believes. 5 For Moses writes about THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF THE LAW, \u201cThe man who does those things shall live by them.\u201d 6 But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, \u201cDo not say in your heart, \u2018Who will ascend into heaven?\u2019\u201d (that is, to bring Christ down from above) 7\u00a0or\u00a0\u201c \u2018Who will descend into the abyss?\u2019 \u201d\u00a0(that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? \u201cThe word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart\u201d (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto RIGHTEOUSNESS, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith,\u00a0Whosoever\u00a0believeth\u00a0on\u00a0him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no DIFFERENCE between the JEW and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is RICH unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall CALL upon the name of the Lord shall be\u00a0SAVED”<\/i>.\u00a0Romans 10:1-13.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is the scepter of Your kingdom. 7 You love RIGHTEOUSNESS and hate wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, has ANOINTED You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions”<\/i>\u00a0Psalms 45:6-7.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“And of the angels He says: \u201cWho makes His angels spirits And His ministers a flame of fire.\u201d 8 But to the Son He says: \u201cYour throne, O God, is forever and ever; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is the scepter of Your kingdom. 9 You have LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has ANOINTED You With the oil of gladness MORE THAN Your companions\u201d<\/i>\u00a0Hebrews 1:7-9\/NKJV.\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“For I am NOT ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ, for it is THE POWER of God to SALVATION for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. 17 For in it THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD is REVEALED from faith to faith; as it is written, \u201cTHE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH”<\/i>\u00a0Romans 1:16-17.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“For if by the one man\u2019s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS will REIGN in life through the One, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore, as through one man\u2019s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man\u2019s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in JUSTIFICATION of life. 19 For as by one man\u2019s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man\u2019s obedience many will be MADE righteous. 20\u00a0Moreover\u00a0the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, 21 so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might REIGN through RIGHTEOUSNESS to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord”<\/i>\u00a0Romans 5:17-21\/NKJV.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us THE WORD OF RECONCILIATION. 20 NOW then, we ARE AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ\u2019s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He MADE Him who KNEW NO SIN TO BE SIN FOR US, that we might BECOME THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM”<\/i>\u00a02 Corinthians 5:17-21\/NKJV.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
