Freedom from Fear

2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “For [God] made [Jesus] who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”

Jesus brought you into right relationship with God. Because of His atoning work on the Cross, you are now accepted into God's family as if you had never sinned. When you know that you are right with God through faith in what Jesus did, then fear and anxiety have no place in your life.

In His death, burial, and resurrection, Jesus took your sin so you could have His righteousness. The moment you believe in Jesus Christ and accept Him as your Savior and Lord, you are made the righteousness of God in Christ.

You are righteous in Jesus Christ by faith. An understanding of your righteousness in Him will free you of all fear and enable you to boldly go into the throne room of God.

Hebrews 4:16 says, “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”

You have received the great exchange of God's gift of righteousness that was provided for you through Jesus Christ. You have been made the righteousness of God in Him.  Jesus took your sins and gave you His righteousness.
