Today is Thursday, May 29th, 2008; Karen's Korner #1324

A Joel and Victoria Osteen email daily devotional from mid-August of last year. Favor - even when it may not look like it or we might not act like it. Even when our house is swept up in a tornado; we will experience God's peace, grace, help!
 
Favor Mentality

“Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life...” (Psalm 23:6).

"Do you know what goodness is? It’s God’s favor. In the above verse, David was saying, “Favor follows me everywhere I go.” David knew he had an advantage. He knew God would assist him. He knew he could expect preferential treatment. David had this favor mentality. All through the Psalms, he constantly talks about God’s favor. You see, something is going to follow you throughout life. If you go around thinking, “Nothing good ever happens to me. I never get any breaks.” Then you’re going to have defeat, mediocrity, and lack following you around. But if you’ll switch over into this favor mentality and say, “God’s favor gives me an advantage. God’s favor is bringing success. God’s favor is making my crooked places straight...” then you’ll have blessings chasing you down! You’ll walk in promotion! You’ll experience increase! You will be destined for success! Choose to have a avor mentality today so you can enjoy the goodness and mercy God has stored up for you!"

Heavenly Father, thank you for your grace and mercy. Thank you for showing me your goodness. Thank you for showing me your favor. I accept your promises for me today and let go of every negative thought. Thank you for your peace today. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
