YOU ARE NOT IN YOUR SINS

1 Corinthians 15:17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. (NIV)

Forgiveness of sin is only possible through Jesus Christ because He paid for our sins by His death. The legal state of a believer is sin-free. Yet many live with a sense and burden of condemnation. If you did something wrong and acknowledged it before God you receive remission; that is blotting out as though it was never committed. But some people would allow self-condemnation to make them ineffective.

You are not in your sins. Your wrongs are not with you. If things are not going well it is not a result of the sin you committed yesterday, no! Having received forgiveness you received remission. Walk with your head high up. You are the one Jesus died for and was raised for so that in Him you might receive justification and rightousness.
Romans 4:25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.

And now you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. 
2 Corinthians 5:21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Being the righteousness of God is more than being in right standing with God. It means you are the expression of His rightousness. You are His righteous nature revealed; in full view. If anyone wanted to see God's kindness they look at you. Anyone who finds you finds God's mercy, grace, love, rightousness and blessing. 

Don't go into the new year with a sense of condemnation and self-blame. No! Lift your head high up. You are not in your sins, you are the righteousness of God because you were raised together with Christ Jesus unto newness of life. 

CONFESSION

Jesus Christ has indeed been raised from the dead and I was raised with Him. For He was delivered over to death for my sins and was raised to life for my justification. In Him I am the righteouness of God; His righteouness in full display. Hallelujah!
