Psalm 5:12
Psalm 5:12
For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
God's favor is a powerful blessing that shields us and provides us with a sense of security and well-being. The righteous are those who walk in His ways, and for them, God promises to surround them with His favor like a protective shield. This shield is not only for physical protection but also provides guidance, direction, and strength. When we are surrounded by God's favor, we are empowered to live with confidence, knowing that He is with us, protecting us, and blessing us. This favor also brings favor with others, as God’s righteousness reflects through us, allowing us to experience His blessings in every aspect of life. Living according to God's will ensures that we are continuously surrounded by His protection, and His favor becomes a shield against the trials and temptations that come our way. As we walk in righteousness, we are assured of God's ongoing blessings, and His favor will continue to shield us from harm, bringing peace and security into our lives.
