Righteousness Delivers

There's been a few products through the years I bought with confident expectation only to be met with great disappointment when they did not produce the advertised results! I thought what a waste of money and time! I'm sure you would agree there is a widespread lack of peace of spirit and mind. What a shame when, according to God's Word, there is one thing which delivers all it promises. "And the effect of righteousness will be peace, and the result of righteousness will be quietness and confident trust forever." (Isaiah 32:17). I personally testify when quiet calm rules the storm without and within is when righteous living is the priority. The spirit's push for more-bigger-better robs us of many things! In contrast to this standard for living, Jesus said, "First and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) His kingdom and His Righteousness [His way of doing and being right - the attitude and character of God], and these things will be given to you." (Matthew 6:33). Make no mistake: this isn't a casual promise from some distant governor; no! it's a Promise from The Father, Guaranteed by the blood of The Son and Sealed in-by the Power and Work of The Holy Spirit. Believer, do you lack peace, quietness and confident trust in your spiritual life? Stop doing the "same old things expecting different results." By grace, change your priority: as promised, righteousness delivers!
