Jeremiah 23:6 - ...This is His name by which he shall b called - The Lord our Righteousness.
There is a hope for those who have given up hope. It is a name of life fore those who can see only death. What an exchange! My sin, past, present, and future - for His marvelous, incalculable righteousness and purity.
Lord, at Calvary's cross you became sin on my behalf that I might become righteous in God's eyes. Your purity and righteousness became mine. No longer does Our Father see my sin, my filthy rags, my utter unworthiness.
He sees me clothed in Your pure white robe of righteousness. My sin is gone, forever. My debt has been cleared.
Jesus Christ has redeemed me, but not with silver or gold or anything perishable. BUT, with the precious blood as of a lamb, unblemished and spotless. The blood of Christ the Son of God himself, was shed for me.
I am so aware of my unrighteousness. but I know now that is not who I am any longer. The day I confessed my sin, acknowledged Your payment for my sin, accepted the free gift of redemption, I became righteous in Your eyes.
This is a debt I can never pay. Thank you. keep me humble and yet aware that I am now not only righteous, but You are making me holy, for your purposes.
Praise Jehovah Tsidkenu, My Righteousness. Hallelujah! Amen.
