Walking with Jesus every day will produce a lifestyle of favor for you. Nothing pleases God more than for a person to trust Him. WIthout faith it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). A person who has faith in God’s love for them will also have the courage to obey Him. Jesus calls those who obey His word His...
“For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; With favor You will surround him as with a shield,” (Psalm 5:12).
Having God’s favor on your life will cause you to prosper in every area of your life. God’s favor will attract the right relationships, it will attract finances, it will produce promotions, and create opportunities. Favor is defined as approval, support, or liking for someone or something. God is not a respecter of persons. He doesn’t place His favor on one person and withhold it from another. His favor comes with His son. When a person receives Christ into their lives by faith they receive the favor of God as well. Jesus is the favor of God. Jesus is the blessing of God.
Walking with Jesus every day will produce a lifestyle of favor for you. Nothing pleases God more than for a person to trust Him. WIthout faith it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). A person who has faith in God’s love for them will also have the courage to obey Him. Jesus calls those who obey His word His friends (John 15:14). We see this in the life of Abraham. Because Abraham believed God; God was delighted to call Abraham His friend (James 2:23). God’s favor is on those who live by faith and are doers of His word.
What is the commandments that Jesus gave us to obey that will produce the favor of God in our lives?
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another,” (John 13:34).
Jesus has asked all of us to love one another as He has loved us. He desires for us to give His unconditional love to everyone. This includes our family, friends, strangers, and even enemies. Love makes God’s existence evident in the eyes of those around us. This is why Proverbs 16:7 states, “When a man’s ways please the Lord, He makes even His enemies to be at peace with Him. Everyone is attracted to love. Everyone wants to be valued, respected, and treated with kindness. This is why being a doer of God’s word will bring forth God’s favor in every one of your relationships.
Today, place your trust in Jesus. Be bold enough to obey His leading. Choose to give His unconditional love away to everyone everywhere. In doing this, you will create an opportunity for God’s favor to work in your life and on your behalf. I declare God is for you today and if He is for you than who in the world can be against you (Romans 8:31).
