The Qualities Of God As Revealed In His Names


"Jeremiah 33:16 Jehovah Tsidkenu -The Lord Our Righteousness"



Good morning, good morning, everybody. I hope you had a wonderful night. You are rested and ready for another day. Let us go to the Lord in prayer. Father, we come before you this morning. We thank you for your goodness, your mercy.  

We thank you that you are the God who make us right with you. We know we don't have it in ourselves to be righteous with you, but it's through your spirit that you enable us to be called the righteousness of Christ, and for that we are grateful.  

We were born on our way to hell and you exonerated us and placed us on this pathway to heaven. So we love you and we are grateful that we are called the children of the most high. So Father as we pull out our hearts this morning.  

We ask you to just hear us in our prayers to come to our aid, where we need aid, to strengthen us where we need strength to give us wisdom, where we need to make decisions.  

But above all else, continue to give us Christ because it's he who we need in these times and we pray this prayer in Jesus name, Amen. Family if there is one name we need to call on in this hour in this season is Jehovah Tsidkenu, Lord our righteousness, Lord our righteousness.  

One of the hardest things to be is to be righteous. It's very difficult because we are born in these sinful bodies sinful nature. We are born in it and our flesh tries as much as it can to override your spirit and that's why God had to send Jesus.  

So that we can be right with him. That's why God named himself Jehovah Tsidkenu. The Lord our righteous. Not the Lord is righteous, he is righteous, but he is our righteousness. You can be righteous without God.  

We don't have the strength, the wisdom to be righteous with our God. He makes us righteous. That's why we are called the righteousness of Christ. So Jeremiah 33:16, in those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will dwell safely and this is the name by which he will be called. The Lord our righteousness.  

2 Corinthians 5:20-21, Now then, this is Paul writing to a Church in Corinth. We are ambassadors of Christ, as though God were pleading through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf to be reconciled to God. For he made him who knew nothing to be seen for us that we you and I.  

We might become the righteousness of God in him. This is God's plan that I'm going to send Jesus, who has no sin to become sin. So that he become in him, we become. The righteousness of God in him. 

Without Christ it's impossible to be righteousness of God. In him it is this all happens in him. And God named himself Jehovah Tsidkenu. Lord our righteousness. Brothers and sisters, yesterday I was up till 2:00 AM.  

My heart is burdened, grieved, challenged with everything that we are experiencing and are seeing. We are living in an era where people are celebrating evil. Or placing evil as right and right is evil. And if there is a name we need to call on in this hour is Jehovah Tsidkenu, the Lord our righteousness.  

The scripture we just read says you and I are ambassadors. If you ever been at an embassy that is outside of your country. When you step into that embassy, it is considered an extension of your country. And in the embassy you have the protection of your country in that jurisdiction.  

Now every embassy they have an ambassador who is pretty much a resident president of your country un another country, you represent your country in another country, and this creature is calling us that you and I are ambassadors of Christ.  

That he has made us righteous so that we represent him as righteous. Ambassadors that in us there is a level of righteousness that represent Christ and I'll tell you, these brothers and sisters it's now rare to see a righteousness being preached.  

Then the scripture wonders about this that it will be rare to see good words being preached, rare. So we have a responsibility that God has placed on us and he has also provided strength in its wisdom for us to be that.  

So our job in this whole entire matter is to call on his name, a desire to call on his righteous name. So that you and I continue to be made righteous for we are ambassadors of Christ. That's a huge responsibility and we can't do it without him.  

Because it's him that makes us righteous and if there is ever a time where great ambassadors are needed is right now. This world is going through too much and just like if you are in another country and you're visiting there and chaos breaks out.  

The first thing they will probably instruct you to do is go to the embassy. Then find safety, run there. Wherever you are, make sure you get to the embassy because once you get there, you find the protection that you need.  

In the scripture is saying that you and I are ambassadors of Christ. Because he has made us righteous in Christ Jesus and as ambassadors we need to be in right standing with God. 

So that when we have conversations with people what they feel, what they touch, what they smell. What they experienced in us through us is the righteousness of Christ. And we need to call on this name in this hour, it's needed.  

We are needed in times of trouble, ambassadors are important. You rarely hear of them. You rarely hear of embassies until there is chaos in another country and the ambassador becomes a prominent figure. 

And right now, our world is in trouble and ambassadors are now needed to rise up in this chaotic environment. So that we can be the example that's needed for others to see and to find hope in following what has been laid out is a master plan by God for all your money to be righteous with him through Jesus Christ.  

You are needed. Your righteousness is now needed as much as it is great and good for you, your righteousness is now needed because of the times that we find ourselves in. So brothers and sisters be in right standing with God. Be in right standing with God. 

It's pretty much a desire on our part to be in right standing and he will make us right with him, if we have a desire to be right with him. There's not much we can do ourselves other than to have a desire to call on his name Jehovah Tsidkenu.  

So that we can be in right standing with him. We are needed, you are needed. I am needed to be an Ambassador in these critical times. There's so much happening and we need to point people to Christ, Amen. Let us pray.  

Heavenly Father, our blessed Redeemer. Our hearts are heavy and we are challenged with what's going on around us. Turn our eyes from worthless things and direct us in the path of your command.  

There's too many things that are going on, hence the righteousness of Christ is needed in this hour to rise up to stand, to be ambassadors of Christ, to represent Christ in the right way that he desired to be represented so that others can find this faith.  

Father, we thank you for your goodness and your mercy towards us. We thank you for what you did on the cross, so we can be called the righteousness of Christ. Our desire is for others to be in right standing with you.  

We pray for wisdom on our part to constantly call on this name in this hour of chaos. So that we can be found in place and in the number. We thank you for the wisdom of studying these names for putting in us this hour to call on you.  

Because if my people who are called by my name humbled himself in significant call on you and 10 for my wicked ways. Then only will you hear from us and heal this land. Help us in this hour of need.  

As ambassadors, we know we are fully backed by the nation we are part of. Every resource, every need is supplied for and as Ambassadors, we stand here knowing that God, you are supplying all our needs and our resources are according to your needs, to your riches in glory from spiritual or physical emotional needs.  

Thank you for the supply. I pray that you continue to strengthen us in our minds to strengthen us in our souls as we look to the hills, where our help comes from. We pray, Lord, for continued wisdom as we continue to live out this life as ambassadors for Christ. Where we need help, send it. Where we need courage, send it.  

So Father now, as we go throughout this day. And. Remind us of all the names. That we have started, but today Lord may we just focus on the Lord our righteousness. Now we ask. To lead us not into temptation. But deliver us from the evil one. For thine is the Kingdom. The power and the glory. Forever and ever. Amen.  

Brothers and sisters, let's call on Jehovah signal. The Lord our righteousness. For we are ambassadors of Christ. And ambassadors are needed in chaos. May the Lord bless you with the Lord, be with you, and you all have an awesome day and we will meet tomorrow morning.
