EMPOWERED TO WALK IN RIGHTEOUSNESS - ONLY GRACE COULD HAVE DONE THIS!

'For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.' - James 2 vs 10

Hello Dearly Beloved in the LORD JESUS. I Believe the LORD will speak to your Heart by reason of HIS WORD which I now share with you.

Now, by a careful observation of our opening Bible Passage, it is clear and obvious as regarding the Law-code of the Law; by that I mean, how the Law operated. The Law operated in such a way that if One kept one part of it and failed at another part, He is guilty of the entire Law. - Selah. That was the Law-code. Hence, it was hard for men to walk in the Righteousness of GOD, it was difficult for men to walk in a way worthy and pleasing to GOD with Liberty. So, when men kept a part and failed at another part of the same Law, there's a feeling of "Oooo, let me just stay as I am, a sinner; I can't do this thing." Now what birthed that notion?, is it that that man doesn't want to do the will of GOD or please GOD?, No! But because He is wearied by His continual failed attempts in not able to keep the whole Law. Do you understand? - Selah. Hence by this, men were kept under the bondage of sin and guilt. - Selah

But under Grace, GOD declares all who Believes in the LORD JESUS "Righteous"., the Believer has been declared and made Righteous through the Sacrifice of the LORD JESUS, and not by His own doing. Now see, when a Believer sins, He is still the Righteousness of GOD in CHRIST JESUS, He is still Righteous in the sight of GOD because of the Blood of JESUS which Cleansed Him once and for all {Hebrews 10 vs 10 - 14}. Can you see something here?, it is the Believer that has the Liberty to walk in Righteousness, it is the Believer that has the Liberty to walk in a totally Renewed and Glorious Life of Purity and Righteousness and not the man under the Law. Why?, because there is no judgement awaiting Him should He fail at any point, there's no condemnation for them who are in CHRIST JESUS, you see, there is no guilty proclamation awaiting Him if He fails at any point, hence, He is free to Practice Righteousness, He is free to try again and again and again. When the man under the Law fails, He is guilty of the whole Law; when the man under GRACE fails, He is still the Righteousness of GOD in CHRIST JESUS. Oooo Glory!, in CHRIST JESUS I have, we have been delivered from the bondage of sin and guilty, and have been brought into Liberty where we can Practice Righteousness and Try again if we fail without any sense of Judgement and condemnation. Glory to GOD.

So if under the Law, they were weary in their walk of Righteousness because of the Law-code (which I have explained above), why won't the Believer who has been set at Liberty, who has received an Eternal Righteousness that He did not work for or merit, why won't the Believer gladly walk in Righteousness and Live in a way worthy and pleasing to GOD HIS Dearly Beloved FATHER? - Selah. You know why many Believers don't walk this way?, it's because many of us have not understood GOD'S Intention for the Introduction and Establishment of GRACE. Let us see what the Apostle Paul has to say by the SPIRIT concerning this;

'Or despiseth thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of GOD leadeth thee to repentance?' - Romans 2 vs 4 {KJV}

Amazing. I'll like us to see this in the Amplified Bible Translation;

'Or are you [so blind as to] trifle with and presume upon and despise and underestimate the wealth of His Kindness and forbearance and long-suffering patience? Are you unmindful or actually ignorant [of the fact] that God's Kindness is intended to lead you to repent (to change your mind and inner man to accept God's will)?'

Oooo Beautiful!  

GOD'S KINDNESS IS INTENDED TO LEAD YOU TO REPENT!

Do you see this? - Selah. It says that GOD'S Intention for Unleashing HIS Kindness, Grace and Mercy upon men is so that they may repent (have a change of mind, to have a renewed inner man that accepts GOD'S Will). And what is this will of GOD the Apostle Paul is talking about?, Let's see it;

'For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.' - Ephesians 2 vs 10 {KJV}

This is self explanatory right...?. But for emphasis, let's see this in the Amplified Bible Translation. Please follow me;

'For we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which GOD predestined (planned beforehand for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].

LIVING THE GOOD LIFE!

Dearly Beloved, there is a Good Life GOD has ordained for us to Live. I tell you, there is a Good Life, and this was HIS Intention when HE poured HIS Grace on us, that we may be empowered, that we may receive enablement by the Gospel to walk in this New Life. - Selah

Let these Words enter you and Transform you. Enjoy the New Life! Enjoy Righteousness! Truly, walking Righteously Rocks! This is not because I want to get GOD'S Acceptance or Approval by walking Righteously, no! HE already Accepted us and Qualified us in CHRIST JESUS. But I walk in the New Life (Righteousness) because that is the New Life I have been called to Live. Righteousness is my Nature, Righteousness is my Life! If I fail, I did not become unrighteous (Because CHRIST is my Righteousness): So if I fail, I get up and keep on shinning! I don't know any other life to live other than to walk in Righteousness and Purity. The Believer is a Righteousness Practitioner. - Selah

'Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.' - Romans 6 vs 4 {KJV}

NEWNESS OF LIFE!  

New Creation, New Life! - Selah

GOD has Blessed You.
