THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

YOU WOULD NOT BE WHERE YOU ARE IF NOT FOR THE GRACIOUS HAND OF GOD ON YOUR LIFE…..

Have you ever thought about the fact that the victories you saw in your past weren’t just your own doing? When you made it through a difficult time, when you received an unexpected break, when things turned around for no reason, it was because God FAVORED you. You wouldn’t be where you are if the gracious hand of God was not on your life!

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have as much EDUCATION as someone else. It doesn’t matter how influential your FAMILY is. It doesn’t matter what your BACKGROUND is. God’s FAVOR can take you where you could not go on your own. When you receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior, He places something UNDENIABLE on the inside of you. Something that cannot be measured, can’t be put on paper, and can’t be explained—it is His Holy Spirit and His FAVOR shining down on you! Other people may not be able to figure it out. All they know is that you’ve got SOMETHING—that’s the gracious hand of God.

Today let this truth sink down deeply into your heart. Don’t be discouraged by what you can see, be ENCOURAGED by what you CAN’T see! Put your shoulders back and go out with FAITH and CONFIDENCE knowing that His gracious HAND is upon you!

Today’s Scripture:

For they did not gain possession of the land by their own sword, nor did their own arm save them; but it was Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your countenance, because You favored them.

Psalm 44:3, NKJV
