"Favor"

"These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit, and who tremble at My Word."  (Isaiah 66:2b)

The word, "favor," has been used a lot in recent years in some circles.  It is used to indicate things working out well for you.  I suggest that our text gives the accurate description of those under Jesus', "favor."

Father, in Jesus' Name, it is Your, "favor," which I seek.  Amen.

When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"

Hebrews 12:2

So You Want Blessings?

"....He persevered (endured) because he saw Him Who is invisible."  (Hebrews 11:27b)

I read the entire Book of Hebrews this morning.  Blessing on "steroids."
