But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise… (Romans 10:6).
Righteousness has a voice; it speaks! The Bible says the righteousness which is of faith doesn’t beg, complain, or fear; it declares God’s truths. It speaks the language of victory, boldness and dominion.
Being born again, you were born righteous; you were born with the life and nature of God. His righteousness was imparted to your spirit, supplanting the sin nature. That righteousness is a nature and a position, but it also empowers your speech. It causes you to talk like God.
So, when you say, “I’m the righteousness of God in Christ,” it’s much more than a positive confession. It’s the affirmation of truth! You’re saying what God has said. The Bible says, “He has said, so that we may boldly say…” (Hebrews 13:5-6). He said in 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.” Speaking the same things with God is how we activate and release the life and blessings of righteousness.
You can’t walk in your inheritance without saying it. You can’t reign in life unless you talk as the royalty that you are. The Lord Jesus said you shall have whatsoever you say (Mark 11:23). He also said, “By your words you shall be justified” (Matthew 12:37). Therefore, you have to speak and speak right.
The righteousness of faith doesn’t say, “I hope one day I’ll be healed or helped.” No! Rather, it says, “I have and walk in divine health, and I’m marvellously helped of the Lord.” The righteousness of faith calls things that are not as though they were; it speaks reality, and the Word of God is the reality.
When you speak the Word of God in faith, you align your life with heaven’s will. You silence doubt and confusion. You activate angels. You chart a course of divine success. So, speak boldly. Declare your health, peace, prosperity and victory. Express your righteousness through your words.
CONFESSION
I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. I speak words of life, power and faith. My words are full of faith, hope and love, and they establish God’s will in my life, in the lives of others, and in my environment. I walk in divine favour and victory today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Romans 10:6-10 KJV
But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down [from above]:) 7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, [even] in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
2 Corinthians 5:21 KJV
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.

DAILY AFFIRMATIONS:
Christ purchased a life of glory for me through His death and resurrection, and sickness has no place in that life. Therefore, no disease can enter my body. I have what God says I have; I am who He says I am, and I can do all He says I can do. I live above all limitations and circumstances. I walk in preordained pathways of blessings! Divine health flourishes in me. Goodness and mercy follow me everywhere I go, and I have the supernatural grace to excel in all endeavors today. By virtue of the divine life of Christ at work in me, I experience health, victory, and prosperity. I have guaranteed health, success, safety, wellness, and wholeness.
I am the expression of God’s fullness, grace, and glory. I manifest His kingdom and power. I have put on the nature of righteousness. I have the incorruptible life of God in my Spirit. This life energizes every cell of my blood, every bone of my body, and every fiber of my being, such that I radiate life and health always. There is no influence of Satan in my life, for Jesus is the Lord of my life! The Spirit of the Lord is in me, causing life to spring forth from within me. Blessed be God for the victory over death that I have in Christ. The life I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of Jesus Christ my Lord, who loved me and gave Himself for me! I live fearlessly, knowing that I have passed from death to life.
I lavishly enjoy God’s grace. His stamp and seal of perfection are on me, certifying me as healthy, successful, victorious, effective, and glorious. I am immune to satanic attacks. I’m disease-proof! I am without blemish. There is no room in my life for anything not of God. My words are powerful because I’m always filled with the Holy Spirit! Today and always, God’s grace is active in my life and sufficient for me in all things. Thus, I rule dominantly over demons of darkness, sickness, disease, poverty, failure and death. I reign triumphantly, enjoying all the benefits of divine life in Christ Jesus. Everything about my body is perfect; my lungs, liver, heart, blood, and every part of me. I declare that I live, rule and reign above them all in Jesus’ name. Amen. Speak in tongues.
