Favor

A good man obtains favor from the LORD, but the LORD condemns a crafty man.

For it is You who blesses the righteous man, O LORD, You surround him with favor as with a shield.

For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.

Let those who favor my righteous cause and have pleasure in my uprightness shout for joy and be glad and say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, Who takes pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.

Generous to a fault, you lavish your favor on all creatures.

Have you ever come on anything quite like this extravagant generosity of God, this deep, deep wisdom? It's way over our heads. We'll never figure it out. Is there anyone around who can explain God? Anyone smart enough to tell him what to do? Anyone who has done him such a huge favor that God has to ask his advice? Everything comes from him; Everything happens through him; Everything ends up in him. Always glory! Always praise! Yes. Yes. Yes.

Proverbs 12:2 Psalm 5:12 Psalm 84:11 Psalm 35:27 Psalm 145:16 Romans 11:33

Your problems can never exhaust God’s provisions.
