May
His
Face
Smile
With Favor On Us.
Scripture
Psalm
67
1 May
God be merciful and bless us.
May his face smile with favor on us.
May his face smile with favor on us.
Observation
If
there is one thing for sure that you and I need this week it is for
God to smile on us!
If
God does smile with favor on us this week it will only be because of
His mercy and His loving kindness.
God
is good. All the time!
You
and I don't deserve God's kindness. We don't deserve God's love. We
don't deserve His mercy.
Okay
… how do we make God smile … how can we cause His face to smile
with favor on us?
Actually,
it is pretty easy – obey Him - put Him and His kingdom first this
week … make Him and spending time with Him be our number one
priority!
One
of our young people (our church is full of young people!) told me
yesterday while I was talking to her after church, “I came under
conviction that I needed to get back to reading God's Word every day
so I have started a 'read the Bible through in a year reading plan'.”
I
know that her decision, her commitment to get back into God's Word
made God smile! May God's face smile with favor on her as she
faithfully does what she has promised God that she is going to do!
Being
a man or a woman after God's own heart, that is what makes our God
smile with favor on us!
What
needs to change in my life this week, what needs to change in your
life this week to cause God's face to smile with favor on us?
Numbers
6:24-26
Application
I
plan to live out this week in a way that makes God smile.
How
about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, help me live out this week in a way that makes You smile.
Don't let me do stupid sins that mess up my relationship with You and
that mess up my relationship with those around me. Help me to walk in
obedience this week. Guide my steps. Keep me walking in the right
direction.
I
pray for any person that may read this blog. Help them to live out
this week in a way that makes You smile. Numbers 6:24-26 is my prayer
for them: “May the Lord bless you and protect you. May
the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May
the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.”
