Scripture:
2 Corinthians 5:21
“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.”
Devotional:
Righteousness is not something you earn—it is something you become when you believe in Jesus Christ. God made Jesus, who knew no sin, to become sin for us so that we could become the righteousness of God in Him.
This means your righteousness is not based on your performance but on Christ’s finished work. Today, rest in this truth: you are righteous because of Jesus.
