Favor with God & Men

SCRIPTURES on FAVOR WITH GOD & MEN (OT & NT):
(1) I associate with those who are blessed and highly favored so that I may increase in every area of my life.
Genesis 30:27 And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thine eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.

(2) Like Joseph, I prosper in every place and in every situation I am in, because the Lord is always with me. I, too, experience preferential treatment.Genesis 39:1 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmaelites, which had brought him down thither.
2 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
5 And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.
6 And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not aught he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favored.
Gen. 39:21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.

(3) The favor of God shields me; therefore, no sickness or disease can live in my body.
Deuteronomy 7:15 And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee. Psalm 5:12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

(4) Wealth and riches are in my house because I am empowered with God's anointing and favor to draw wealth. Deuteronomy 8:18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore unto thy fathers, as it is this day. Psalm 112:3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth forever.

(5) God's favor brings promotion and causes me to increase daily. Esther 2:17 And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
Psalm 75:6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from
the south. 7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

(6) As the righteousness of God, I declare that I am highly favored in God's
Sight.

Job 33:26 He shall pray unto God, and he will be favorable unto him: and he shall see
his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.
Psalm 5:12 For thou, LORD,
wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

(9) The Lord takes pleasure in my prosperity. He desires for me to prosper in every area of my life--spiritually, financially, emotionally, physically, mentally and socially. Psalm 35:27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favor my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant. 3John2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

(10) My enemies cannot triumph over me because the Lord has favored me. Psalm 41:11 By this I know that thou favorest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

(11) The Lord helps me to guard the door of my mouth and trains me not to
speak against His favor at work in my life.
Psalm 141:3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.

(12) I actively seek and live by God's wisdom; therefore, I am highly favored and esteemed in the sight of God and men. Proverbs 3:1 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
2 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4 So shalt thou find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
Proverbs 8:33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favor of the LORD.

(13) I operate in integrity; as a result, I obtain favor from God. Proverbs 11:27 He that diligently seeketh good procureth favor: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him. Proverbs 12:2 A good man obtaineth favor of the LORD: but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.

(14) I am blessed and highly favored. Luke 1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

(15) Fear cannot rule in my life because I have favor with God. Luke 1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favor with God.

(16) I will not allow any corrupt communication to proceed out of my mouth. Instead, I will speak only that which is good, full of grace and edifying to others (Ephesians 4:29). Eph 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
