1. What is the pivot point of all Christianity?

Answer: Jesus' substitution and our identification with it. Jesus was made to be sin for us. He never committed sin but he became the nature of sin. To the extent that I realize that Jesus was made to be sin, that is how much I will see myself as the righteousness of God in Him.

"He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." - 2 Corinthians 5:21

"He died for all, so that they who live might no longer liver for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf." - 2 Corinthians 5:15

"I am crucified, with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me." - Galatians 2:20

2. What comes as a result of your first seeking the kingdom of God and His righteousness?

Answer: God loves me with the same love that He loves Jesus. I have as much right to expect God to move on my behalf as I would expect Him to respond to Jesus.

"When that day comes you will not ask me for anything. I tell you the truth; my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name." - John 16:23

"Truly,truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he willl do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father." - John 14:12

"I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing." - John 15:5

3. Why was David victorious against Goliath?

Answer: He saw God on his side. He knew he was in right standing with God and God was for him.

"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?" - Riomans 8:31

"But in all these things we over-whelmingly conquer through Him who loved us." - Romans 8:37

"For you have made the Lord, my refuge, even the Most High your dwelling place. For He will give His angels charge concerning you, To guard you in all your ways." - Psalm 91:9,11

4. What is the effect of righteousness?

Answer: Quietness and assurance.

"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul." - Psalm 23:1-3

"To grant us that we, being rescued from the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without fear, in Holiness and righteousness before Him all our days." - Luke 1:74,75

"For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus, having been filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God." - Philippians 1:6,11


5. When is it that nothing can prevail against you?

Answer: When I can be confident of God's willingness to use His power in my behalf because of my right standing with Him. I have no need to fear what Satan or man can do to me.

"For everyone born of God, has overcome the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith." - 1 John 5:4

"But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth." - 1 John 2:20

"But the Lord is faithful and will give you strength and will protect you from the Evil One." - 2 Thessalonians 3:3

INTO ACTION:
Affirm and meditate on the indicated scriptures several times daily until the renewing of your mind is made real to your spirit.


AFFIRMATIONS:

Since God is for me, who can sucessfully come against me? (Romans 8:31)

I am more than a conquerer since nothing can separate me from the love of Christ. (Romans 8:37,39)

I am sincere and without offence, being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ unto the glory and praise of God.  (Philippians1:10,11)
