To walk in righteousness means to live each day according to God’s revealed standards, reflecting His character through our attitudes, words, and actions. It’s not a self-righteous strut but a Spirit-led stride—a humble, faithful journey that begins with our standing in Christ and extends to our daily conduct. Scripture states, “The steps of a man are established by the Lord, and He delights in his way” (Psa 37:23). Righteousness is not merely a theological category—it’s a lifestyle that aligns us with God’s will and purposes. And as we pursue this path, we become living testimonies of God’s grace in a world darkened by sin (Matt 5:14-16).
