Experiencing God's Favor - Daily Devotional

Experiencing God's Favor - Daily Devotional

 Bible Verse: Psalm 5:12 (NIV) - "Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield."

As a Christian, one of the most precious and comforting promises we have is that of God's favor. Our Heavenly Father delights in bestowing His favor upon His children, those who seek to live righteously and honor Him in all things. The concept of God's favor might seem elusive or mysterious at times, but let us explore how we can experience it in our lives and what it means for us as believers.


What is God's favor? It goes beyond merely receiving blessings or good things in life. God's favor is the tangible expression of His loving-kindness, grace, and support towards His chosen ones. When we walk in alignment with His will, seeking to live according to His Word, we position ourselves to receive this special favor from the Almighty.


The verse in Psalm 5:12 reminds us that God surrounds the righteous with His favor as with a shield. Just like a shield protects and defends us from harm, God's favor safeguards us from the trials and challenges that come our way. This doesn't mean we won't face difficulties, but it means that God's favor will sustain us, uplift our spirits, and guide us through those tough times.


Remember that God's favor is not earned by our efforts but is a gift of His grace. It is His desire to bless and pour out His favor upon us. Let us approach each day with the assurance that we are under the covering of God's favor, knowing that He is with us, guiding us, and working all things for our good.


Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for your abundant favor in our lives. Help us to seek your presence daily, to walk in righteousness, and to trust in your timing. May we be thankful for the blessings we receive and share your favor with others. We surrender our lives to you and ask that your favor be upon us as a shield. In Jesus' name, Amen.

The Goodness of God - Daily Devotional

  Verse: Psalm 100:5 (NIV) - "For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Devotional: Today, let us reflect on the profound truth that God is good. His goodness is not contingent on our circumstances, but it remains constant, unwavering, and eternal. In Psalm 100:5, we are reminded that the Lord's goodness is inseparable from His enduring love, and His faithfulness transcends generations. As you begin your day, consider the goodness of God in the light of your own life.

God's goodness surrounds us, and even in challenges, there is a purpose that unfolds through His love. In times of joy, acknowledge the goodness of God with gratitude. In times of trial, trust in His goodness, knowing that He works all things for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28). Take a ...

Overflowing Blessings - Daily Devotional

  Verse of the Day: Psalm 23:5 (NIV) "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows." Devotional:   As Christians, we are recipients of God's overflowing blessings. Just as a cup overflows when filled to its brim, God's blessings pour into our lives abundantly. In Psalm 23, we see a vivid picture of God's provision and care. The verse reminds us that even in the midst of challenges and adversities, God prepares a table for us, symbolizing His constant provision and protection. God's blessings go beyond our needs. They overflow into every area of our lives—our relationships, work, health, and spiritual growth. But how can we position ourselves to receive these overflowing blessings? 1.

Verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NIV) "Give thanks in all circu...

Occupy Till I Come : Teachings

  And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come (Lk. 19:13 KJV) Living for God and working for God are two sides of the same coin. God has    life for us to live and work. A healthy relationship with God is a necessary foundation, but the Lord also works on earth. He wants us to    actively participate in it. Therefore, loving Jesus, living a holy life, or attending a large church is not enough. We must be actively involved in my father's business. The parable of a nobleman distributing his money to his servants reveals how God feels about our involvement in activities that promote His interests on earth. In this parable, a nobleman distributed his property to his servants and went to a faraway land. Before leaving, however, he ordered his servants to "occupy until I come." His orders made clear his expectations: he wanted the servants to do something with what they had received.  The terms used in thi...
