"You, Lord will bless me and all the [uncompromisingly] righteous [all who are upright and in right standing with You]; as with a shield You will surround me with goodwill (pleasure and favor)" Psalm 5:2 (NLT)
In our walk with God we must understand that our lives are surrounded with favor. If we understood how much favor was surrounding us we'd attempt greater things for God without fear. Unfortunately, many people can't handle that fact or don't believe this simple truth, so they are relegated to a life of fending for themselves and trying to make it on their own.
This is not God's plan for us. The bible says, "The eyes of the Lord are toward the [uncompromisingly] righteous and His ears are open to my cry....When I cry for help, the Lord hears, and delivers me our of all my distress and trouble." (Psalm 50:15) You were not meant to carry that burden you bear. And for those who think that being uncompromisingly righteous is difficult, take heart in the fact that through Christ's sacrifice we were all made righteous. (Romans 5:17)
So what's limiting you in recieving God's favor upon your life? Is it fear? Is it doubt? If so, look at the word of God as the greatest anecdotal recipe to cure the ailment of fear and doubt. Your answers are all there... in black and white... God's favor and protection are there for the taking....you only need to believe.
