THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame (1 Corinthians 15:34).
Until you become conscious of your righteousness, it will not work for you. To be righteousness-conscious means to be aware that you have been justified, cleansed and accepted before God. It means you no longer see yourself through the eyes of your past but through the righteousness of Christ.
Guilt and fear lose their power when you’re righteousness-conscious. This is what Paul meant when he said, “Awake to righteousness.” Wake up to who you are! You’re not a sinner saved by grace; you’re a new creature in Christ Jesus. Old things have passed away, and all things have become new (2 Corinthians 5:17).
This awareness transforms your fellowship with God and gives you the mentality of dominion in life. Don’t say, “I’m just an ordinary person, trying to please God!” No; you’re not ordinary; you’re the righteousness of God. Think, talk, and live righteousness, and you’ll produce fruits of righteousness.
PRAYER: Dear heavenly Father, thank you for the impartation of your righteousness to my spirit. I’m conscious of who I am in Christ; sanctified, glorified and justified. I walk boldly before you, and I reign in life through the grace of Jesus Christ. I live triumphantly by the power of the Spirit, producing fruits and works of righteousness in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
