Peshmelen, we understand your desire for God's favor. We want to clarify that while the Bible speaks of the baptism of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:5), it does not specifically mention a "baptism of favor." Nevertheless, God's favor is indeed something we should all desire and seek.
Let's consider what God's Word says:
- "For surely, Lord, you bless the righteous. You surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12, WEB)
- "May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make his face to shine on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord lift up his face toward you and give you peace." (Numbers 6:24-26, WEB)
To walk in God's favor, we must live in obedience to His Word and maintain a close relationship with Him through Jesus Christ. If you haven't already, make sure to confess Jesus as your Lord and Savior, for it is only through Him that we have access to God's blessings and favor. As it is written:
- "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12, WEB)
**Let us pray together:**
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ. We ask that You pour out Your favor upon Peshmelen. Help them to walk in Your ways and draw closer to You each day. Surround them with Your favor as with a shield, and bless them abundantly. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.*
Peshmelen, continue to seek God with all your heart, and He will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6). Always remember that His favor is not a mere baptism but a continual walk with Him.
