Declared right

 

Righteousness means to do what is right in the eyes of the Father.

Righteousness is mentioned in many scripture chapters.

“Righteousness is conformity to law, especially to the law, mind and will of Heavenly Father Almighty, which is the norm of righteousness.

 

Righteousness requires of us - Deuteronomy 6: 25 ‘and it is righteousness for us when we guard to do all this command before Yahuah our Elohim, as He has commanded us.’

In Psalm 119:172 it says, “For all Your commands are righteousness.”

In Isaiah 51:7 we read, “Listen to Me, you who know righteousness, you people in whose heart is My Torah (law).”

Before we can ever start doing righteousness (the commands) we first need to be “declared right,” by belief.

Our sins must first be forgiven, we first need to belief, to come into a covenant relationship with the Most High through His Son Yahusha (Jesus).

In Paul’s day many Jews thought that because they were the descendants of Abraham, and were trying to keep the law their way, that they were right or righteous. No! They were putting the cart before the horse.

We first need to believe and accept Yahusha and His forgiveness, and then only does it become our privilege, and duty, to obey Yahusha, as He commands us: Go and sin no more.

If you know that He (Messiah) is righteous, you know that everyone doing righteousness has been born of Him (Messiah) - 1 John 2:29.

It is possible to be declared right!

Does it mean we cannot make mistakes? No! We all make mistakes! But the differences to these mistakes (sin); are they done intentionally or unintentionally.

 

The steps to righteousness are;

1) Belief,

2) accept Messiah,

3) ask forgiveness,

4) Obey Yahuah (do His commands),

5) Commands are written on your heart by His Spirit (Holy Spirit),

6) You sin no more,

7) You are righteous.
