Power of God’s Favor (Numbers 6:24-26)

The message centers on Numbers 6:24-27, highlighting God’s blessing of protection, favor, and presence. It contrasts being ‘happy’ with being ‘joyful,’ emphasizing true joy found in serving God. The power of God’s favor is described as spiritual empowerment rather than material wealth, supported by 2 Timothy 1:7. Divine favor includes God’s continual presence, protection, and delight in the faithfulness of believers, especially youth.

God’s grace is described as a merciful and unearned kindness, with His “smile” representing His approval. The message also underscores God’s active involvement in the lives of believers, illustrated by a personal testimony of His guidance during difficult times. Blessings are understood as spiritual peace (“shalom”) and favor, extending beyond mere material prosperity
