You reap what you sow, its a simple principle. If you do people right, you will get done right. "God cannot be mocked, a man reaps what he sows" Galatians 6:7. I can't stress how real this is. We can all attest to how when we have done people wrong, it always seems to come back to us, and vice versa. If you sow seeds of hate, you will reap a harvest of hate. Likewise, If you want God to please you, you have to please God. There is one thing that God cannot do. The scripture says it is impossible for God to lie. This is because whatever he speaks becomes reality. Therefore, do to what he has already spoken in his word, God cannot bless someone who is not pleasing him. For it breaks the laws of seed time and harvest. Therefore, if you please God, he will reciprocate your actions by pleasing you. Righteousness is being in right standing with God. Seeking him, obeying his spirit, doing his will, these are all pleasing to God. By doing this, you allow God to supernaturally work on your behalf. For you are practicing righteousness. The scripture doesn't say, " the Christians are never forsaken." It says, "the RIGHTEOUS are never forsaken." only those who practice righteous living will look back on their lives and have a testimony of God's goodness. Again yes, we are made righteous in Jesus, but we still must practice righteousness. Try it, test righteousness and see God work for you as you work for him.

"The prayer of the righteous is powerful and effective" James 5:16

"If I regard sin in my heart, the Lord will not hear me" Proverbs 15:29

"..he hears the prayers of the righteous." Psalm 66:18
