thank you also for you know talking to me those of you are calling me and telling me how this is blessing you and how you're also extending this blessing to other people I'm glad that we are from the team of the family of God wherever you are and the Lord is blessed to have us here and it's interesting to reaching out in our own in the danger situations bless us and every morning every afternoon every evening wherever you are you can be sure that the Lord is concerned about your situation as you begin today one one more time we are still continuing with righteousness of Christ series and today we are looking at the question what is righteousness we're talking about Christ and his righteousness then the question is what is righteousness day 22nd of the four days of prayer we are past half of the series and we thank the Lord for your patience let's pray together before we begin I'd grace us for the in heaven we thank you for the privilege of this fellowship one more time as we get into the study briefly and then take time to pray Lord we invite you to speak to us may I not be seen may you be seen as you speak to us Lord I pray that may your presence be our blessing we pray in Jesus name amen amen what is righteousness talking about Christ and his righteousness the question is what is righteousness text is Matthew chapter 5 in verse number 6 the attitudes and verse number 6 is specifically talking about the beatitude that deals with righteousness blessed are the mass for I mean blessed are they which do hunger and vast for after righteousness for they shall be filled blessed are they which do hunger and vast after righteousness for they shall be filled what is righteousness I was checking through definitions of righteousness from dictionary and from orders and I picked I feel what is good at the best of all definitions is what my best order gives LNG where you'll excuse me for days I mean I just love this order she speaks to my heart and I pray that she also may be speaking to your heart she defines righteousness in a very unique way in the book thoughts from the Mount of Blessings page 18 you can read and go and check this thoughts from Mount of Blessing page 18 I consulted her and this is what she has to say righteousness is holiness righteousness is holiness likeness to God and God is love goes on to say it is conformity to the law of God righteousness is holiness or righteousness is likeness to God or righteousness is conformity to the law of God for all thy commandments are righteous quoting from Psalms 119 verse number 172 and love is the fulfilling of law quoting Romans chapter 13 verse number 10 so righteousness then is love in love is light and the life of God powerful the righteousness of God is emboldened in Christ she says we receive righteousness by receiving him she comes down there without Christ there's no righteousness this is very very powerful that righteousness then is holiness remember we saw that God is holy and he drills in holiness and so here she says that righteousness is holiness meaning righteousness is God because God is holiness see so if God is holiness and righteousness is holiness then the only way for us to receive holiness is to be with God it is until we are with God then we can be said to be righteous people you will never be righteous if you're not with God but now there's another element she brings in these definitions how do we then know we are with God it's she says it is true love is if you love me you shall keep my commandment and she says God is love love is God God is love we love God by then keeping commandment it is conformity to the law of God you cannot purport to love God and you don't keep his commandments it can be true that you are in love with God you have given your heart to God yet you are living contrary to his law it is until you are in conformity to the law of God that then you can be say to be in love with God and then you can be saying to be living virtuously the very powerful quote from LNG wide so she she she says and she agrees with the authors of the scriptures in Psalms 119 verse 172 that all the commandments are righteous that the commandments of God are righteousness so when you talk ask you what is righteousness we are saying God is righteousness what is righteousness conformity to the law of God is righteousness what is righteousness the law of God is righteousness hallelujah I love this now what are we saying here this morning you're saying here simply for you to experience revival and reformation is for you to start honoring your life in harmony to the world of God to the law of God to live within the confines of the commandments of God because he says if you love me you shall keep my commandments I want this morning before we pray to post this question to you do you hunger and vast for righteousness of God do you hunger and vast for Christ's righteousness in other ones do you hunger and vast for keeping the law of God I have some people saying doesn't matter whether you keep the law or not grace of God is enough but I want to let you know grace of God has appeared upon the earth to teach us to say no to sin and we cannot say no to sin without the law of God but it is the law of God that teaches transgression let me speak to somebody who watches this video and you know that then you're not a sabbathkeeper to remind that among the commandments of God Guernsey's keep the sabbath day holy invites us in the fourth commandment to remember the 70 day and keep it holy to help approach love God and break that commandment of course keeping the entire commandment is the will of God upon us and I want to divide you and especially if there's somebody who is watching this video you've never thought about being a vendor skipping the sabbath holy apart as part of the commandments of God to invite you kindly to choose to visit with us and worship with us and feel and experience the fellowship of Sabbath God ordained special day for worship he says as sanctified and made it holy and put it apart for worship purposes remember this of the day righteousness is living in conformity to the law of God blessed are they who hunger and vast for righteousness for they shall be satisfied for they shall be filled as you pray this morning is it a desire that you may you may hunger you may vast for righteousness in other words you may that's for doing God's will you say it's not everyone who comes to me saying Lord Lord shall finally be found in this kingdom but only that person who does the will of God so join with me this morning this afternoon this evening wherever you are that we may seek the Lord in prayer on this line but just to request us to pray that God would help you in person in particular stop believing the lies of certain that a day is a day that it doesn't matter how you live it doesn't matter church go to it matters to God matters to God that is why I said remember so stop believing the lies of certain that make you think you are not worthy of his love pray and ask God to impute and impart his righteousness to you pray that no the non-christian staff who work during the general conference sessions will sense God's love and presence in the delegates and it will lead them to want to know more about 70 day Adventists pray for all the logistical details of the general conference sessions who go smoothly pray for those in in the 1040 window who have never harmed this wonderful truth and have distorted concept of God's love and character pray for the seven member list your friends that you have pray for me pray for all people that you care for pray for your own salvation and as Paul says working it out to the fear and trembling but we are not here just as another way of life but we are here because we are so intentional living God lives and being received in the kingdom of God let's pray together my dear viewer a great ask for the heaven thank you so much for this privilege sweet our prayer that caused me from the word of care means me at his feet Lord we are at your feet this moment we pray that you may take away all the cares of life from us give us peace forgive us Lord our transgressions cleanse us from all man of unrighteousness beat us for eternity this week we are continuing discussing the theme of Christ and His righteousness that our sin for ways may appear more sinful and a deep desire to denounce them maybe the reality in our lifetime that we may seek your grace and walk in your righteousness walk in your light and today we are we are talking about righteousness what we are finding from the scriptures and from the pen of inspiration that is righteousness that is holiness and righteousness God being holy and being righteous we invite us then to live in righteous lives this is conformity to your law that we shall not neglect the subject of the 10 commandments and living controlled by the 10 commandments we thank you and appreciate because you said if you love me you shall keep my commandments and praying that Lord my viewer may think about the commandments of God may see the inscription of your love in those 10 commandments the transcript of your character that we may desire to live in harmony with your world we shall be transformed we shall be renewed we shall be revived we shall be
