Chris.
We know that Christ is Righteous. It is good to know this fact and remember it. It should be a central part in our Life of Faith. God does not bend to our requests, rather we should bend to His. If we know that Christ is Righteous we should be able to trust every decision that He makes for us. Sometimes God's People pray 'bent' prayers, trying to pull their own will out from God. It is far more beneficial to acknowledge that Christ is Righteous and then Pray in line with His Will.
