FAVOR

Ezra 7,8; Luke 20

S=Scripture=Objective. A=Application, P=Prayer

S-Ezra 7: 6b “The king had granted him (Ezra) everything he asked; for the hand of the Lord, his God was on him.”

O-Ezra was granted favor from the king, he gave him supplies, silver, gold, food, and people. Ezra was a teacher and was well versed in the Law of Moses.

A-Ezra had a calling on his life, to lead and to teach and uphold the law of Moses. He was faithful in this calling and God granted him much favor. Jeremiah 29:11 says that God has a plan for our lives and that His plan is good. When we are obedient in following God’s plans for us, we then walk in His grace and power…God’s desire is pour out favor on us and on our families.

P-God is good…all the time and He desires to bless His people. Help me Lord to walk in your ways and thank You for all the favor You have given to me and my family.
