Isaiah 54:17 (KJV) No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.
What a great heritage the LORD GOD has promised to His servants. As a servant of the LORD one knows that the righteousness we have is not our own but it comes from Jesus Christ. He is our righteousness, we are righteous in Him. This in turn places us under GOD’s protection and nothing or no one can win against us here on earth unless the LORD allows it and then it is for His glory and part of His great masterplan just like the devil thought he defeated Jesus Christ on the cross but instead it was a great victory. In the end we have the final victory in Jesus Christ because as it is written “1 Corinthians 15:54-58 (KJV) So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.”
How can one be and become righteous and a servant of the LORD? It is by believing in the good news of Jesus Christ, GOD the son, His death and resurrection, trusting in Him and truing from our ways to walk in GOD’s ways. When we believe in and confess Jesus Christ we are saved “Romans 10:9 (KJV) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”. GOD then translates us form the kingdom of darkness to the Kingdom of Light (Kingdom of God). We become His adopted children “Romans 8:14-17 (KJV) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.”. We also become His servants “Romans 6:22 (KJV) But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.”
Therefore let us be encouraged to put our faith in Jesus Christ and be unmovable, steadfast and as His servants and children abounding in the LORD’s work.
