Hello,
The LORD Is Righteous!
"
For the LORD is righteous, He loves righteousness; The upright will behold His face.”Psalm 11:7
, NASB.
The LORD Is Righteous
Our God is perfect!
Consider His every characteristic: power, knowledge, goodness, righteousness, justness, love, grace, mercy, compassion, mercy, and so many characteristics that can't be named in one sitting.
I find it interesting that we, too, can be righteous.
Our righteousness is through Jesus, our Lord.
Our hearts, minds, bodies, and spirits are righteous as we set our existence on our LORD.
The more we think of Him, the more righteous we are in who we are and in our behavior.
For us, as God declares, we must be just (right) with our neighbors. We must be fair in all we do.
Of course, a righteous life is the best way to live.
Did you know the LORD sees our righteousness?
To be righteous is to be blameless (like Job), right, and innocent. That's a big order, but we find these in our Lord Jesus. We have His example to follow.
Righteousness gets us to heaven, where our God lives.
Live as if the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are within you. Live in love. Be at peace!
