Rhapsody Of Realities 23 December 2025 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): Three Important Things Jesus Brought To Us

TOPIC: Three Important Things Jesus Brought To Us (Rhapsody of Realities 23 December 2025)

For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).

Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:

There’re three important things that the Lord Jesus brought to us which every Christian must study diligently, understand and live by, especially this yuletide season. These are righteousness, eternal life, and fellowship. These are three things we receive from Jesus Christ that no one could have any other way. There’s no religion in the world that can give them, and in our study today, we will focus on one of them— righteousness.

Righteousness or the righteousness of God is the manifestation of His excellence, love and purpose. When we talk about the righteousness of God, we’re dealing with His excellence in everything; He’s at the top of everything. He’s excellent. Then, it’s also the manifestation of His love and His righteous purpose in everything. There’s a righteousness about God in everything. When that righteousness is manifested toward man, something happens: man receives that righteousness and it produces in him the rightness of God.

This is so important because God is faultless. If you can fault Him, that means He falls short, but He never falls short. He’s ever and always right. Whatever He thinks, says, or does is just right. He’s imparted the same nature to us. Now we can think right, talk right, act right and live right.

This is what happened when you received Jesus into your life to be born again. It wasn’t a religion you got; the rightness of God was imparted to you as a gift (Romans 5:17). It had to be imparted because you couldn’t attain it or make it happen for yourself. It can never be gotten any other way. But through Jesus Christ, we have the rightness of God manifested in us by divine impartation.

This righteousness of God is what gives us right standing in the presence of the Father without guilt, fear, condemnation or the sense of inferiority. We never could have served God or lived for Him until His righteousness was given to us. This is something amazing you got from Jesus when you believed in Him; righteousness. We’ll review the other two in our subsequent studies.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the gift of righteousness. I walk in boldness and confidence, knowing I have right standing with you. I live in the consciousness of who I am in Christ, free from guilt, condemnation, or fear. Thank you for making me your righteousness in Christ Jesus. I reign in life and express your nature of excellence and love, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY

Romans 5:17 (KJV) For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

1 Corinthians 1:30 (KJV) But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

Philippians 3:8-9 (KJV) Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, [9] And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

2 Corinthians 5:21 (KJV) For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
