The Lord's favor...!

Ezra 7:27-28 NKJV

Blessed be the Lord God of our fathers, who has put such  a  thing as this in the king’s heart, to beautify the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem, and has extended mercy to me before the king and his counselors, and before all the king’s mighty princes. So I was encouraged, as the hand of the Lord my God was upon me; and I gathered leading men of Israel to go up with me.

Shalom! Day #189. Do you know that if God's hand is upon your life, you will have favor wherever you go? Let's pray. Father, Your favor last for a lifetime. Let Your favor, grace and mercy be with us wherever we are and in whatever we do. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

The Lord's favor upon us is for a lifetime. The psalmist spoke about the Lord's favor in the book of psalms. How wonderful is it to see the Lord's hand is upon our lives andmthe best part is that we prosper in everything we do because of the Lord's favor and His mercy. If God's hand isn't upon the things we do, chances of seeing the thing prosper and bear fruit is very minimal, maybe it wont bear fruit at all. Even in the ministries we are involved in, if God's hand isn't upon it well you wont prosper. When the Lord's favor is upon us, doors of opportunities will just be opened for you. God will divinely connect you to people you not know of. Opportunities will just come knocking your door.

In today's verse we see how God was involved in Ezra's life. In everything he was doing, God was present and God was involved. Are we allowing God to be involved in our lives, family, ministry? If you aren't prospering in everything you do, then there's a problem. The problem is, God's hand isn't there, He isn't involved in the things you are doing. Time to reconsider.  Time to repent and to allow God to be in control,  not you.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
