THE FAVOR OF GOD
"So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man."
Proverbs 3:4 (KJV)
Reflection:
We are surrounded by God’s favor everyday. He never stop pouring His love, peace, and provisions everyday. Could it be possible you can miss His favor? There are things we need to understand why we missed His favor.
1. HUMILITY: the opposite is pride. Satan was cast out from heaven because of pride.
Proverbs 16:18 “Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.”
2. HONESTY: the opposite is deception, lying, cheating, and covetousness. Proverbs 12:22 "Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight." Enjoy God’s favor by being truthful and honest. John 8:32.
3. HONOR: you honor God with all that is within you. One commandment that gives you favor is to honor your parents and God will prosper(favor) you and give you long life. Ephesians 6:2-3 says
"Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth." Also honor God with your earnings so He can bless you more. Proverbs 3:9-10
"Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine."
Indeed, everyday is a favor from God.
Our breath alone to sustain our existence is more than enough to love and give thanks to God.
Enjoy God’s greatnes!
He is a God full of favor.
You are His favorite.
Obey Him!
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for the many favors You gave me through Your grace of physical, financial and spiritual favors. I ask You to please help me to be faithful to you in return to Your mercy and love, and obey your well according to your Word. I pray to You, in Jesus Name, Amen.
