Favored Faith

Psalm 147:11 - "The Lord favors those who fear Him, those who wait for His lovingkindness."

There are generally two reasons why it might seem as if the Lord is withholding His favor from a believer's life. While we may fear the Lord and are obedient in what He has shown us, we can often abort His goodness by not waiting in faith for Him to move. Paul says that when we have done everything, to stand firm and not allow our resolve to be shaken (Ephesians 6:13).

Never quit until the answer manifests. Beloved, obedience must be married to faith if we will indeed experience all that Christ has done for us. May we look to Him, knowing through our surrendered lives of obedient faith we will experience all He desires to do in our lives, families, and homes. Our intended gaze will always result in His intended love and how we experience it.
