In Psalms, chapter one hundred and twelve, verse one, what matters most in the life of a God-fearing person is God’s will on earth be done, as in Matthew six, verse ten. Such people love God’s law because His commandments represent the righteousness the world scorns. In Hebrews one, verse nine, says, “Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.” It is not enough for the children of God to love righteousness; they must also hate evil.
The evidence of Christ’s devotion to righteousness is in Isaiah eleven, verse five, and His hatred of iniquity in His life, ministry, and death. Christ’s faithfulness to His Father while on earth is demonstrated by His love for righteousness, and hatred of wickedness is the basis for God’s anointing of His Son. In the same way, our anointing will come only as we identify with our Master’s attitude toward righteousness and evil, as in Psalms forty-five, verse seven.
Our love for righteousness and hatred of evil will increase by two means: growing in love and compassion for those whose lives are being destroyed by sin and experiencing greater intimacy and oneness with the Lord Jesus, who “loved righteousness and hated iniquity.”
The theme under The Prosperity of the Righteous section is about souls who delight in the Lord and God’s will accomplished through them so that others within their environment can receive what God has established within that person. It’s all about the Almighty God making His way through each person’s life to achieve eternal life and avoid the pitfalls of falling into the clutches of sin and eternal damnation. It depends on which spirit will rule and abide within that soul: the presence of God or not.
