The best way to do this is create "local.xml" file in your themes layout section and place below code.

<layout version="0.1.0">
    <default>
        <reference name="right">
            <block type="cms/block" name="your-block-identifier" before="-">
                <action method="setBlockId"><block_id>your-block-identifier</block_id></action>
            </block>
        </reference>
    </default>
</layout>
