Righteousness

Proverbs 11:11

" Through the blessing of the upright a city is exalted..........."


Through Righteousness, a Nation is exalted. What a great verse, especially for people in the marketplace. Recently, I feel that righteousness is so important.

This is a kind of GODLY righteousness, that nobody can destroy, nobody can take away. This is a righteousness that will remain even in the face of adversity, and pressure.


In our workplace, we need to have such righteousness. Bible says very clearly (Matthew 10), that even though we may be as sheep in the midst of wolves, but we are to be as wise as serpants, and as harmless as doves. Though we may face hypocrites and politics players, God will protect us by giving us wisdom, but God will also want us to be nice to such people unconditionally by giving us supernatural strength.


No matter how negative the environment may be, we need the Peace of God to come into our hearts, and this is the peace that will protect us, make us feel safe and help us to be righteous for God and to honour God in our words and behaviour when it seems so difficult.


Righteousness is so fundamental. It will bring blessings to a family, a company, and a country. Righteousness do not succumb to temptation and pressure. Righteousness is unconditional love, strong foundation, and unyielding protection.


God is righteousness.
