What a great day God has given us. A beautiful day and I wonder if we praise Him enough just for the breath we take. It is time that we take our focus off the things of the world and put our focus on the spiritual side of Heaven. Have you ever got up in the morning and thought about the favor God has given you. Pastor Dan preached today from the book of Ruth. I don't think I ever heard it put the way he did. When he got to the part about favor he could only cry. Because see we don't deserve the favor. The way we have lived our lives and discarded the favor of God while we were wallering in sin we don't deserve anything.
You can't work enough make yourself up enough you can't do enough of good deeds. The only way favor comes is thru the favor Jesus Christ gives you because you have Him in your heart and He is your Savior. Ruth was gleaning in the field not thinking of moving up to the penthouse. She was taking care of family. But God looked down on her and gave her favor beyond anything she ever could imagine. When you least expect it your not looking for it and there He is standing in the distance pleased with you and He grants you favor.
Don't miss what He has for you don't let pride get in your favor don't let sin get in your favor. Don't let the world pull you out of your favor. Don't do anything but follow the Lord and everything else will be added. Amen
