(The Lord Has Chosen To Favour You)
TO THE BIBLE: EXODUS 33:19 AMPC
“And God said…I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy and loving-kindness on whom I will show mercy and loving-kindness.”
LET’S TALK
Isn’t the Lord wonderful? When He chooses to bless and favour you, there’s nothing anybody can do about it.
David recognised this and said, “Howbeit the LORD God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he hath chosen Judah to be the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he liked me to make me king over all Israel” (Chronicles 28:4).
The Lord chose David above all his family members, yet David had nothing to do with it. God hasn’t changed; He still chooses to favour people today, and He’s chosen to favour you!
Not only is it God’s choice, it’s also His set time to favour you. Believe this. Paul, writing to Timothy, said, “Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus” (2 Timothy 2:1).
That’s what you ought to do: take advantage of the grace that’s in Christ Jesus. He likes you, and He’s favourably disposed towards you; be conscious of this.
There’s grace for you from God for whatever you require right now: “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work” (2 Corinthians 9:8).

Pray:
Dear Father, thank you for loving me and for choosing to favour me. Your matchless love for me gives me the required boldness and confidence to be the success you created me to be. I take advantage of your great grace and lead others into this knowledge, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
