The Lord Is with You!
Dr RJ Sing
“2But the Lord was with Joseph, and he [though a slave] was a successful and prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. 3And his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord made all that he did to flourish and succeed in his hand.4So Joseph pleased [Potiphar] and found favor in his sight, and he served him. And [his master] made him supervisor over his house and he put all that he had in his charge”
Webster’s dictionary defines favor as friendly or kind regard, good will, approval, unfair partiality or favoritism. In the Scripture above we see that the Lord is always with you to make you prosperous and very successful. Those who have been appointed over you can see clearly that the hand of the Lord is with you. They see how the Lord makes everything that you set your hands to do thrive and prosper. The Lord grants you abundant favor with those in authority over you.
They look upon you as one called to lead and the Lord blesses them for your sake. For your sake, all they have is blessed. You are the one with authority and blessing. This rubs off on all around you. Because the Lord is with you, you are a prosperous man/woman and this blessing is continuous and unending.
Expect favor in your life today, Refuse to speak against the favor of God in your life. God loves you and rejoices in your prosperity and well being. The Lord is with you and will never leave you nor forsake you. This is what you should keep in mind before you.
