NXL Daily Devotional – Lord…Grant Me Favor!

Proverbs 21:1 - The king's heart is like a stream of water directed by the LORD; he turns it wherever he pleases.


If you’ve ever had to go for a job interview, or stand before a judge or a jury, or depend on someone in an influential position, you understand that sometimes they have the ability to grant or deny whatever request you may have.

But God wants you to know today, that it doesn’t matter who’s placed before you, how influential they are, nor does it matter how many “hookups” they have. Their power is limited before God. God is the king on the throne, and He is able to turn their hearts in your favor. God’s providence directs the course of a person’s heart to serve His own purpose. God can change men’s minds to turn from that which they seem most intent upon. In other words, they may be dead set against loving you, but God can change that. They may be dead set against hiring you, but God can change that. They may be inclined to do you harm, but God can change that. He may not want to take care of his child, but God can change that. The supervisor may be planning your termination, but God can change that.

It is God who has control over everything, not man. Therefore, do not put your confidence in powerful people; there is no help for you there. (Psalms 146:1). The bible says in Proverbs 29:26 that many seek the ruler's favor, But justice for man comes from the LORD.

Understand, that as a child of God you have favor with him. Esther found favor, Joseph found favor, Nehemiah found favor, David found favor, Daniel was granted favor. The bible says in Luke 2:52 that God allowed Jesus to increase in favor with God and man.

Saints today, seek God’s favor, not man’s. Don’t allow people to block your vision. God’s favor overrides everything a person might think or say about you. It is God who directs the king’s heart. It is God who turns a person’s heart towards you. Ask the Lord for favor today.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for your word! Lord, thank you for being in control of even the king’s heart. God because we know we have found favor in your sight, we know we will find favor in the king’s sight. Lord, right now the turn of our life is dependent on the person you’ve appointed over the decision. But God, we believe now that you are in control of the situation. We believe that you have the power to change things the way they should go. We believe in your power. And we believe by faith that whatever outcome we desire will come to pass. Lord…give us supernatural favor today! In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen!


Romans 10:9 reads, " That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." If you would like to join us as we go higher in God’s word, please reply to
