PRODUCTS OF DIVINE FAVOUR
SCRIPTURE: For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. – Psalm 5:12
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: You cannot have favour with God and be a victim of rejection on earth.
The favour of God is a very important ingredient in fulfilling God’s purpose. In Romans 9:16, the Bible says, “So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.” The mercy (favour) of God is needed to make a meaning in life.
What then are the products of Divine favour?
1. Acceptance with men
Anyone who has favour with God will also have favour with people. That was the experience of Jesus while He was on earth: Luke 2:52 says, “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man”
So, when God gives you favour, He also causes people to favour you. You cannot have favour with God and be a victim of rejection on earth.
2. Divine preservation
Divine favour guarantees Divine preservation. In Esther 5:2, according to the custom of the Persian Empire, anyone who visited the king without invitation was to be put to death. But Queen Esther visited the king without an invitation and was preserved because she obtained favour in the sight of the king.
Remember this: You cannot have favour with God and be a victim of rejection on earth.

AMAZING FACT: Our tongue is the only muscle in our body that is capable of sensing taste and sending taste signals to the brain. Each individual taste bud has around 15 receptacles that are responsible for carrying taste signals to our brain.
