“If you are willing and you are obedient,
you shall eat the good of the land.
you shall eat the good of the land.
But if you refuse and you rebel, you shall
be devoured by the sword.
For the mouth of Yahweh has spoken.” Isa.
1:19-20 LEB
How can we walk in favor with God and man?
Appropriate and right words often generate favor from those around you.
Proverbs 18: 21tells
us that: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.”
We can speak life or death over others or situations in our
life. People like to be around those who
speak life and live as a light for Jesus.
Proverbs 16:13: “Lips that speak what is right and good are the joy of kings, and he
who speaks the truth is loved.”
Humility is a great way to generate favor.
Proverbs 15: 33: “Fear of the Lord teaches wisdom; humility precedes honor.”
God’s anointing creates favor!
Daniel 2:47-48: “The king said to Daniel, “Truly, your God
is the greatest of gods, the Lord over kings, a revealer of mysteries, for you
have been able to reveal this secret.”
Then the king appointed Daniel to a high position and gave
him many valuable gifts. He made Daniel ruler over the whole province of
Babylon, as well as chief over all his wise men.”
Finally, repentance brings favor!
I Peter 5:6: “So humble yourselves under
the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor.”
Favor increases when you associate with people of integrity! Remember Boaz had a great reputation for integrity. Ruth gleaned in his field. That association brought blessings to all involved!

Favor is an attitude of goodness towards you.
Remember, a wise heart will always look for opportunities to
sow favor! Isaiah 1:19 tells is: “If you
are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land.”
There are many ways favor will come upon you.
There are many ways favor will come upon you.
Here are several examples from the Bible of those who walked
in God’s favor:
Daniel 2:12-13,16:
Favor comes upon you when you are sent to solve problems for others!
God will remind someone of something good you have
done! In Esther 6 the king was reminded
that Mordecai had not been rewarded for revealing the plot to assassinate the
king.
Psalm 5:12 is an awesome scripture that King David wrote of
God’s favor: “For You will make those happy who do what is
right, O Lord. You will cover them all around with Your favor.”
Paying tithes brings favor.
Malachi 3:9-11: “You are cursed, for you are robbing
Me, the whole nation of you! Bring the tenth part into the store-house, so
that there may be food in My house. Test Me in this,” says the Lord of All.
“See if I will not then open the windows of heaven and pour out good things for
you until there is no more need. I will speak sharp words to the
destroyer for you, so that it may not destroy the fruits of the ground. And
your vine in the field will be sure to give its grapes,” says the Lord of All.”
Uncommon achievement attracts uncommon favor! People desire to be on the winning
team! Romans 8:37: “Yet in all these
things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.”
A good attitude often influences favor!
A good attitude often influences favor!
God reveals His favor in you so that others see the
supernatural presence of the Holy Spirit operating in your life!
Remember Joseph and how God promoted him!
Obedience to God guarantees favor!
