RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY 15TH JANUARY 2021

Psalm 85:10-11 tells us something beautiful; it says, “Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other . Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.” In the New Testament, mercy and truth have met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

Romans 5:1 says, “Therefore being declared righteous by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” The Greek word translated “justified” in the KJV is “Dikaioo,” which means to be acquitted and declared righteous. Now that you’ve been declared righteous and have right standing with God by faith, you have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ; you’re at one with Him.

The word “peace” is the Greek, “eirene” which means to be set at one again, to be brought into harmony, concord, safety, with God. There’s no need for you to be afraid that one day, God will recall all your wrongs and punish you for your sins. You’ve come home to Him; you’re now at rest in Him through Christ Jesus. He made it possible; it’s the result of His righteousness that you’ve received He’s brought you to Himself.

There’s a oneness now: “For he is our peace, who hath made both one… Having abolished in his flesh the enmity…to make in himself…one new man, so making peace; And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross… And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh…” (Ephesians 2:14-17).

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for my glorious life in Christ, and my oneness with you. Your righteousness has produced peace in me; peace with prosperity! Thank you for this awesome life of dominion and joy, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
