The Favor of God Will Change Your Life –Part 1
Dr RJ Sing · 1 min read
“For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God.”
How would your life look if you were surrounded, all day and every day, by God’s favor? How different would things be if doors opened for you and you walked through each one covered with God’s favor? Would your actions and attitudes in every situation be any different if you knew beyond any doubt that success lies ahead, because you are one of God’s favorites? Would you find the courage to lay down your anxieties and fears? Of Course, you would! In fact, I’ve got good news for you – you already have it!
Many Christians believe they have to somehow earn the favor of God, but the truth is, we already have His favor. God saved us because of His favor towards us. Simply put, grace is favor. God’s favor is the power that changes things for us. First and foremost, you and I are saved by His favor, and I am not just talking about going to Heaven when we die.
To be saved means to be delivered, protected, preserved, healed and made whole. God’s favor covers every area of our lives and He has taken care of everything we will ever need – spirit, soul and body.
