Tag: Bible verses about being righteous before God

  • Bible Verse of The Day – 3-31-26

    Romans 10:3 (NKJV) 3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.

    We cannot earn salvation through our own actions. It has to be through God’s righteousness which comes through having faith in His Son, Jesus Christ.

    His righteousness is His way of justifying sinners. It is a gift to all mankind. It’s His Answer!

    We cannot be declared righteous by following the law, doing good deeds, etc., no matter how hard we try.

    It comes through faith, as we humbly surrender ourselves to Jesus Christ. Through the blood of Christ, His righteousness covers all our sins and sets us free…Praise be to God!

    Romans 1:17 (NKJV) 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”

    In the book of Habakkuk, God saw the Babylonians as a proud people. But those who relied on Him for their life were considered upright and called “the just”.

    Habakkuk 2:4 (NKJV) 4 “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.

    It’s by faith in Christ that we are made upright or just.

    This is hard for some people to accept. And some will never leave it at that. They will work hard and try to do everything just right, but not accept what Christ did for us on the cross.

    This is prideful in and of itself.

    It takes a humble heart and being aware of the fact that there is no other way but through the blood of Jesus for a lost soul to be redeemed.

    If we cannot reach that place within our heart, we are no more saved than the unbeliever.

    Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV) 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

    Submit to the righteousness of God. We don’t work for it. We put our faith in His Son, Jesus Christ.

    Romans 10:4 (NKJV) 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

    Amen.

  • Bible Verse of The Day – 12-23-25

    Genesis 7:1 (NKJV) 1 Then the Lord said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation.

    Who was speaking to Noah? The Lord. What did He tell him that He saw? That Noah was righteous before Him.

    What does it mean to be righteous before God?

    The Hebrew word for righteous is “Tsaddiq”, meaning one who is right, just, clear, clean, righteous: a person who is characterized by fairness, integrity, and justice in his dealings. It conveys justice and integrity in one’s lifestyle.

    None of us can be perfect. But if we have the desire to work toward it and let God teach us, repenting when we mess up, and submitting to Him for help in the areas where we are weak, this is what God sees in us.

    It says in Gen 6:9 that Noah was a just man, perfect or blameless, having integrity. He walked with God by faith.

    What does it mean that he walked with God?

    In our own lives, it means we make a choice to trust the Lord and to keep or obey what His word teaches us. To commune with Him and be aware of His presence at all times, following His lead, His examples, His path.

    Noah’s heart was after God.

    Some may ask, how does God become so personal to us? As we seek Him, we will find Him, His answers, His direction, His comfort. etc.

    God will speak to our spirit through prayer. He will also use His Word to speak to us. He may use a person. He might even use a situation.

    He will meet us where we are and guide us in a way that we will understand and know that it is Him.

    Are we listening for Him? Or do we think He will never speak to us?

    Do we think that He only spoke to those who lived in the Bible times? The devil would love for us to believe that, and never ask God for help or guidance, and to never seek Him for anything.

    We want you to know today that God will speak to you. If you need answers or direction, He would love to guide you as His child.

    We don’t have to walk this road alone. He is with us.

    Matthew 28:20 (NKJV) 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

    Amen.
