Psalms 44:3 KJV “For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.”
I’m careful to teach about hardwork as a key to success and accomplishment, because even though it’s good to work hard, it is not the best way, and it is dangerous for me to get people to think that whatever they will have or will be will be by their own human efforts. My goal is to get men totally dependent on God! Even when you work very hard you must not rely on your efforts to achieve anything, your trust must be in God alone. Understand that God can get others to do the hardwork for you!
Psalms 127:2 says “It is a waste of time to get up early and stay up late, trying to make a living. The Lord provides for those he loves, even while they are sleeping.” Yes! One day of favour is better than an entire year of labour! The richest man, Solomon, did not become rich by fighting wars, it was because God loved him. From birth God expressed His love for Solomon and even named him Jedidah! No wonder David said that the love of God is better than life! (Psalms 63:3)
I pray for you today in the name of Jesus: “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.” Amen.
