Why we need the favour? II

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
Good day to you, friends! The power of God’s favour should not be taken for granted. For this reason, for several days now we have been talking about this important matter.Favour is the solution for all of your problems – spiritual, physical, material and financial. We see that in the life of the nation of Israel.
«And the Lord had given the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they granted them what they requested» (Exodus, 12: 36)
When God gave favour to the children to Israel, in one day they took away from the Egyptians an enormous amount of silver and gold.  For 400 years the Israelites had worked in Egypt as slaves; they were mocked and oppressed. However, in one moment the favour of God restored to them everything the Egyptians were holding back from them. In a blink of an eye they were made rich.
«He also brought them out with silver and gold, and there was none feeble among His tribes» (Psalm, 105: 37).
It was God’s favour that ensured the financial wellbeing of Israelites. That is one of the things God’s favour gives us. We need it so much. Even Jesus needed the favour in order to excel with God.
«And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men» (Luke, 2 : 52).
Favour is your heritage in God. It is written:
 «For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; with favour You will surround him as with a shield» (Psalm, 5: 12).
Do not lose this wonderful heritage from God! Today be grateful to God for the blessings He surrounds you with and the favour He crowns you with as a shield. Receive His blessing in that sphere of your life where you seem to experience stagnation, and you will see God’s movement and breakthrough. May the Lord bless you!Till tomorrow! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    Whosoever desires to be promoted by God needs to remain humble and simple. I have noticed that many of us cannot sing and dance before the Lord because we have become very important. Remember how freely you worshipped the Lord when you first got saved! It is rather difficult to fellowship with some believers nowadays, because they have become so ‘adult’, serious, important… David, the shepherd, and King David – both praised and loved God in the same way; the change of position in life did not affect the condition of his heart. We have to cleanse our hearts from haughtiness and pride.

    We have been talking about God’s presence in our lives. As we have discussed, God’s presence makes all the difference in our lives. It makes us strong. It makes us wise.
