The Gospel enables you to stand strong in righteousness! What does this mean? We know it is not referring to manufactured righteousness. The scriptures makes it clear that even our good deeds are like filthy rags to the Lord. It also doesn’t mean positional righteousness. Positional righteousness is the act of God justifying sinners. To stand strong in righteousness refers to practical righteousness. Practical righteousness is all about obedience. We can stand strong in the position that Jesus provides by being obedience to who He is and embracing what He has done for us.

We need to be reminded that grace is not of us. God’s powerful grace enables a powerful faith. Grace makes faith possible but faith makes victory possible. A strong faith is proof of a strong understanding of grace. We need the shield of faith to believe the promises of God and embrace the protection that comes from Jesus vs our enemy.
