God's Favor

Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield -Psalm 5:12.

                        God’s favor surrounds us like a shield every moment. The favor of God is with us through every season of our life and it lasts a lifetime. For His anger lasts only a moment, but His favor lasts a lifetime - Psalm 30:5. Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord - Genesis 6:8. As God was with Joseph, he got favor in the eyes of the people. The Lord was with him; he showed him kindness and granted him favor in the eyes of the prison warden - Genesis 39:21.
                         Daniel found favor in the eyes of officials. Now God had caused the official to show favor and compassion to Daniel - Daniel 1:9. Mary found favor with God. But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God - Luke 1:30. And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man - Luke 2:52.
                         When our life is filled with love and faithfulness, we will find favor in the eyes of God and man. Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man - Proverbs 3:3,4. A good man obtains favor from the Lord - Proverbs 12:2. For whoever finds me finds life, and obtains favor from the Lord - Proverbs 8:35.

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Let Your favor always surround us like a shield. Help us to find favor in the eyes of people. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
