“Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; but for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.”
Romans 4:23-25 KJV
This declaration was not just spoken over Abraham, but also over us. For when we believe and embrace the One who brought our Lord Jesus back to life, perfect righteousness will be credited to our account as well. Jesus was handed over to be crucified for the forgiveness of our sins and was raised back to life to prove that He had made us right with God! The Blood of the Cross is the means of our justification and the resurrection is the proof that God now sees believers as righteous in His sight. The Holy Spirit sees the Blood of Jesus through our faith and seals us back into the image of God, once and for all removing the fallen mindset which resulted from sin. How great is our God! Let’s not go back into the sin culture Jesus rescued us from, but steadfastly believe that His Word is spirit and life to us as we live by His Word. Hallelujah!
