TODAY’S TURNING POINT WITH DR. DAVID JEREMIAH 10 APRIL 2024 DEVOTIONAL
Read David Jeremiah 10th April 2024 Devotional, Wednesday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: Right Standing
He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.
Psalm 23:3
Recommended Reading: Proverbs 2:20-21
Sometimes when a plaintiff brings a lawsuit against a person or company, the judge will dismiss the suit because the plaintiff lacks standing. That is, they have no right legally to file the lawsuit. That’s what righteousness means in Scripture: “right standing.” Mankind lost its right standing before God in the Garden of Eden due to sin. We lost our ability to stand before a holy God and enjoy fellowship with Him. Therefore, the story of the Bible is God’s provision of a way for mankind to regain righteousness—the ability to be reconciled to God and be righteous in His sight. God leads us in paths of righteousness, but sometimes we don’t follow. Therefore, we need a way to regain right standing with Him. That’s why God sent His sinless Son into the world. He took our sins, and we received His righteousness by faith (Genesis 15:6; 2 Corinthians 5:21).
Thank God today that you can stand before God when you are clothed in the righteousness of Christ Jesus.
Faith wraps itself in the righteousness of Christ.
