1/31/2021 – The Righteousness of God

Romans 10:3 - For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.
 
The righteousness of God is plain and true,
But don’t assume you’ve got it figured out,
For ignorance can have you gripped by two:
Not knowing and ignoring it throughout.
With faith you find God’s righteousness indeed,
Believing Christ is Lord rose from the dead,
Then give your all to Jesus and concede
It’s not your righteousness but God’s instead.
Submit yourself to Him and Him alone.
Submerse yourself in Jesus, seek His voice
Until you can walk boldly to the throne,
His righteousness secure and so rejoice!
            Don’t stablish righteousness upon your own.
            Instead let God’s pure righteousness be known.
