“Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in the Lord.” (Psalm 4:5, NKJV)

Yes! You have two options - either standing and watching God’s deliverance or trying to do it with your own strength, which is not what God intends. Only those who lack trust try to become righteous before God, yet He has already accomplished everything for us to become wise, redeemed, and sanctified, and we are filled with joy because we are included in His Son. As His children, we are worthy to trust Him. The act of trusting Him proves our worth. Trusting Him, His Person, His purposes, and His presence is a sacrifice. That is why we live from one trust moment to the next.

“For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, ‘The just shall live by faith.’” (Romans 1:17, NKJV)
