Meditate
On
For
You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; with favor You will surround him as with
a shield.
Psalm
5:12
God’s Favor Gives You Rest
Do
you remember the story of Ruth? Ruth was a poor Moabite widow who ended up
meeting and marrying Boaz, one of the richest men in Bethlehem. Her life
started to change for the better after she confessed favor upon herself. When
she went out to glean heads of grain, she “happened to come to the part of the
field belonging to Boaz” (Ruth 2:2–3).
What
God did for Ruth, He can do for you too. He can make right happenings happen
for you. Simply believe and confess that you have favor with Him. Ruth
confessed favor and happened to find herself in the field of Boaz. Who do you
think was leading and guiding her?
With
all our “wisdom” and high IQs, we are not always able to put ourselves at the
right place at the right time to experience blessings or even escape disasters.
Only God can do that supernaturally. That’s why favor with Him gives us rest.
Because when you trust in the favor of God, even if you are not very smart in
the natural, God can put you at the right place at the right time and prosper
you!
Beloved,
when you live life believing that you are favored by God, you don’t have to
worry about the things that you don’t know. Believe that God will make known to
you what you need to know. You don’t have to live life trying to make sure that
you have everything covered. Rest in God’s unearned and unmerited favor and
watch Him put you at the right place at the right time!
