Psalms 85:10-13 (ESV)
10 Steadfast love and faithfulness meet;
righteousness and peace kiss each other.
11 Faithfulness springs up from the ground,
and righteousness looks down from the sky.
12 Yes, the LORD will give what is good,
and our land will yield its increase.
13 Righteousness will go before him
and make his footsteps a way.
The love and faithfulness of the Lord have rained down His righteousness and peace on mankind. Man responds in kind with faith in the word of the Lord. His righteousness is given to us who believe and love Him through obedience to His word.
A new creation appears and it is good. We begin to take the shape of the one we follow in the way He has made. His righteousness goes before us leading us into the righteousness of a son.
