PRAYING THE NAMES OF GOD:
Week #23: YAHWEH TSIDQENU - The Lord Our Righteousness
Key Scripture’s : Jeremiah 23:6

Understanding the Name:
The Hebrew word tsedeq is usually translated as “righteousness” but can also be translated as “righteous,” “honest,” “right,” “accurate,” “justice,” “truth,” or “integrity.” Righteousness primarily involves being in right standing with God. As such it concerns fulfilling the demands of relationship with both God and others. Though people were often called righteous in the Hebrew Scriptures if they observed the Law, Jesus and the writers of the New Testament stress that righteousness is not merely a matter of outward behavior but a matter of the heart–of thoughts, motives, and desires. The goal is not merely to do what God says but to become like him. In the words of Addison Leitch, righteousness “is primarily and basically a relationship, never an attainment.
Christian righteousness is a direction, a loyalty, a commitment, a hope–and only someday an arrival.” The Lord Our Righteousness” (yah-WEHtsid-KAY-nu). Jesus fulfilled this prophecy by rection. Paul proclaims in his letter to the Romans, “But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.”
