We are His people and the sheep of His pasture

Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands
Serve the Lord with gladness; come before His presence and with singing
Know that the Lord, He is God; it is He who has made us and not we ourselves,
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture
Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise
Be thankful to Him and bless His name
For the Lord is good and His truth endures to all generations.

Psalm 100


The time to favour her is now

But You Oh Lord shall endure forever and the remembrance of your name to all generations
You will arise and have mercy on Zion; for the time to favour her, yes the set time has come
For your servants take pleasure in her stones, and show favour to her dust
So the nations shall fear the name of the Lord and all the kings of the earth your glory.
For the Lord shall build up Zion; He shall appear in His glory
He shall regard the prayer of the destitute and shall not despise their prayer

Psalm 102 : 12-17


The Lord is great in Zion
The Lord is great in Zion, and He is high above the peoples
Let them praise your great and awesome name-He is holy
The King’s strength also loves justice; You have established equity; You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob

Psalm 99: 2-4


Your Priests
Exalt the Lord our God and worship at His footstool- He is holy
Moses and Aaron were among His priests and Samuel was among those who called upon His name, they called upon the Lord and He answered them.
Psalm 99:5-6


Answer me speedily

Hear my prayer Oh Lord and let my cry come to you
Do not hide your face from me in the day of my trouble;
Incline your ear to me; in the day that I call, answer me speedily
Psalm 102:1-2


Mercy
For as the heavens are far above the earth,
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him.

Psalm Psalm 103 : 11

But let the righteous be joyful

Let God rise up, let his enemies be scattered; let those who hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; as wax melts before the fire, let the wicked perish before God. But let the righteous be joyful; let them exult before God; let them be jubilant with joy. Sing to God, sing praises to his name; lift up a song to him who rides upon the clouds— his name is the LORD— be exultant before him. Psalm 68 ; 1-4 God gives the desolate a home to live in Father of orphans and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation. God gives the desolate a home to live in; he leads out the prisoners to prosperity, but the rebellious live in a parched land. Psalm 68: 5-6 The earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain O God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wilderness, Selah the earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain at the presence of God, the God of Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel. Psalm 68: 7-8 O God, you showered abro

Depend On God’s Unmerited Favor, Not Favoritism

Meditate On And the patriarchs, becoming envious, sold Joseph into Egypt. But God was with him and delivered him out of all his troubles, and gave him favor and wisdom in the presence of Pharaoh, king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house. Acts 7:9–10 There is a significant difference between God’s unmerited favor and favoritism . God’s unmerited favor is based entirely on Jesus’ merit, and we received it through His finished work at the cross. We did nothing to deserve His favor. It is completely unmerited. Favoritism, however, stinks of self-effort. Individuals who rely on favoritism for promotion resort to apple-polishing, office politics, manipulative tactics, backstabbing and all kinds of compromises just to get what they want. God has a higher and better way for you. It hurts Him to see His precious children groveling like sycophants just to get ahead in life. If a door closes, so be it! Believe with full confidence
