God did not justify and bless us on the foundation of pity or mercy. He did it on an even higher foundation—the foundation of undisputed grace and righteousness. He delivered up His Son, Jesus Christ. On the cross, God made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, so that we could become the righteousness of God in Him.
John said in Jesus is no sin, Peter said Jesus did no sin and Paul said Jesus knew no sin. Jesus became sinned because he received our sins. Jesus took it all upon Himself and exhausted it all.
Jesus paid the ultimate price, so that God could legally and righteously forgive, justify and bless us. Today, if the enemy whispers to you, “You deserve to be in this mess because of what you did last year,” you can boldly declare, “At the cross, Jesus took all the bad that I deserved and gave me His righteousness and blessings. Because of what He did for me, my sins are forgiven, I am justified, and I have a blood-bought right to healing, health, wholeness, provision and success!” We are forgiven, justified, healed and abundantly blessed based on the solid foundation of God’s grace and righteousness.
