Righteousness and Reconciliation Leads to Godly Favor

Righteousness is a subject many believers don’t fully understand. But if you want to walk in the favor of God, you must get a revelation that if you are saved, you are the righteousness of God in Christ.

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. —2 Corinthians 5:21, KJV

Jesus was made to be sin so that you could be made the righteousness of God in Him. This is an exchange. Jesus became sin; you become righteous.

…that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting people’s sins against them [but canceling them]. And He has committed to us the message of reconciliation [that is, restoration to favor with God]. —2 Corinthians 5:19, AMP

Reconciliation puts us back in right standing with God, which is the definition of righteousness. Reconciliation restores us to favor with God. Our repentance followed by Christ’s forgiveness starts the process.

Blessed and happy and favored are those whose lawless acts have been forgiven, and whose sins have been covered up and completely buried. Blessed and happy and favored is the man whose sin the Lord will not take into account nor charge against him. —Romans 4:7–8, AMP

This is the foundation of favor: we repent, Jesus brings forgiveness, we accept it, our sins are forgiven, and we are back in favor with God. The forgiven believer is the blessed and favored believer.

Favor comes to those whose sins are forgiven. So if you have repented, God has forgiven your sins, and He remembers them no more. You are now in favored status.
