“But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)”
Romans 10:6 (KJV)

Matthew_6-33: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Romans_10-10: For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation

God the Father is excited every time you confess your righteousness in Christ because He is reminded of the price paid by His Son in making you righteous. Your declaration of your righteousness in God (Romans 3:26) shows your appreciation of the finished work of Calvary. Jesus Himself rejoices because you are laying hold of what He did on the cross for your benefit. John 16:10 tells us that the Spirit convicts us of righteousness. So He is pleased that you are in agreement with Him. Notice that according to the above scripture, you give joy to the Godhead through your declaration of your righteousness, thereby aligning yourself with Matthew 6:33, which challenges us to seek God’s kingdom and His righteousness so that the things we need will be given to us.

When you acknowledge your righteousness in Jesus, you are putting the devil where he belongs, and this gives God delight. God is like the teacher watching his student display knowledge of the previously taught subject in class during a quiz or competition. Of course the teacher will be proud of his student. In the same way, God is proud of you when you stand in the knowledge of your righteousness in Him. Your action tells Him that you know your rights and privileges. And He can boast about you, knowing that the devil cannot intimidate or subject you to his ridicule and antics.

Each time you say you are the righteousness of God in Christ, you are saying that you are in right standing with God. Your simple confession of this fact builds boldness in you and gives you access to all that God has in store for you. You become like the child in his father’s house who knows that everything inside the building belongs to him. Such a child can move from store to store and from room to room freely because he knows his rights.

Whatever you need will be supplied, so never allow yourself to be intimidated. Declare every day that you are the righteousness of God in Christ.

Romans 5:17
2 Corinthians 5:21
Jeremiah 6-8
1 Timothy 5

Romans_1-17: For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith

1-Peter_2-24: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed
