Topic: YOU ARE DIFFERENT *Anchor Scripture:The Lord will bless the righteous; with favor will He compass him like a shield.” Psalm 12:5 KJV

Hooray! Isn’t it wonderful to think about the uniqueness of our journey? Just like in the lion society, where the new dominant male often wipes out the cubs of the previous ruler, there’s a beautiful twist in a wildlife reserve in Kenya. Here, a new lion spared one little cub, showcasing how favor can change everything! That’s what being favored by God is all about!

WHAT IS FAVOR?

Favor is God’s delightful and special manifestation of His kindness! It’s like a precious gift from above, not earned by our efforts, but freely given out of His immense love.

WHAT CAN FAVOR DO?

- **It gives life!** (Psalm 8:5)

- **It brings blessings!** (Psalm 5:12)

- **It acts as a shield!** (Psalm 84:5)

Think about Esther, Daniel, Joseph, and Mary, the mother of Jesus—they all experienced amazing favor from God!

THE HIGHLIGHTS:

When we find ourselves enjoying blessings and being lifted to high positions, let’s celebrate! It's not just hard work that brings us here; it’s God’s mercy selecting us out of many. How joyful is that?

REFLECTION:*

Let’s take inspiration from the lion’s tale. We are who we are because of God’s extraordinary love for us! Embrace the joy of being favored and let it shine through your life! Stay blessed!

PRAYERS: Lord we ask for your light of the countenance to always shine on us in Jesus' name amen
