We stand at all times in God’s favor and image, for we were created as such. However, our flesh leaves something to be desired, for it lives in corruption and sin and having a poor sense of direction it will make the wrong turn every time.
God seeks our hearts, and when he finds one that loves him fervently and unceasingly he pours his favor upon it and fills it with blessings. God’s favor is something that can be purchased, not with money, but only with a dedicated heart. It is the way in which God wants to be loved, with our entirety of mind, body, soul and spirit. If we lack in any one, it will be brought to our awareness and that area will be worked upon through the Holy Spirit.
