Two of the many reasons why we can do that is because God loves us, and we are surrounded by His favour when we belong to Him.😊 Jeremiah 31:3 says God has loved us with an everlasting love and He draws us to Himself, David says we are surrounded by God’s favour like a shield (Psalm 5:12 NKJV). So what difference does knowing that make to our day?
Let me put it like this, when you woke up this morning God was waiting for you to open your eyes because He has favour all lined up to pour out on whatever you need to do today so that you’re at the right place at the right time to receive His blessings, to help you with your tasks.
When the enemy comes to accuse us of our short comings, he’s trying to make us think God is not pleased with us, but nothing could be further from the truth! It’s a lie! God calls us precious in His eyes (Isaiah 43:4 ESV) and there is now no condemnation for those in Christ (Romans 8:1). He’s not mad at us about anything because He sees us in Jesus. Remember His love is everlasting and His favour is now all over us, but we need to believe it and receive it.😊
When we go for interviews have the mindset which says “Thank You Father I have your favour on me for this job.” When we go to the shops, “Thank You Lord I will be at the right place at the right time for bargains today because I have Your favour.” When you go about your routines at home or in the workplace, “Thank You Lord Your favour is helping me do things well today.”
If we keep confessing we have God’s favour (because He says we do), we shall be able to rejoice and be glad and know ‘today is a good day to have a good day’, whatever day it is, because God is in it with us, and His favour and love are all over us because of Jesus. 😊Amen.
Have a blessed weekend.x😊
Thanks Jackie. Just read this after a bad start to my day but having read your blog I am seeing my day with new eyes. New start to God's new day !! Bless you.
ReplyDeleteThis is an example of this.
ReplyDeleteI needed a bedroom chair . It had to be small to fit. I'd seen one in someone's house that would have been perfect and I said I could do with one like that. A couple of days later On thursday
I was walking past a charity shop and felt I should go in. There was a chair almost identical to the one I'd seen. It was grey. The perfect colour, but how could I get it home !!
I have no transport !!!!
Then I saw a friend from church in the shop and showed her the chair. Straight away she said her husband would fetch it and bring it to my house. An hour later there it was. I was certainly in the right place at the right time to receive God,s blessing!
He will supply ALL our needs according to His riches in glory.
Bless you Lord.
Thankyou to the dear friend for fetching it.
