When God says…
“In the light of the king's countenance is life; And his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.” (Proverbs 16:15 KJV)
This passage keeps us in the reassuring knowledge that when the King of the universe shines his favor upon us, what more could we want? In Christ, as we rest in His lordship, life for us is not merely existence. It is a rich, flourishing and thriving full life –with downpour of blessings. It is full of contentment, joy and peace! That is even in the midst of turmoil in the world!
For those who truly receive the saving grace of our risen Lord Jesus Christ, it is right to pray these words before our heavenly Father:
“Thank you, Almighty Father, for manifesting your character in my life. I have seen you work miracles and give strength to the weak. I have watched you engineered conditions and events to accomplish your plan. And it always turned out better than anything I could dream up! A life beyond blessed!
I marvel at your power and majesty on display in creation. I am amazed by the abounding blessings you have provided for my family. Your radiance shines brilliantly in all our lives.
And, through Christ Jesus my Savior and Sustainer, not because of who I am, but because of who You are, I receive the rain of favor from your priestly pronouncement of blessings for my family and I. All these I receive, as your Words declare - “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.”” (Numbers 6:24-26 ESV)
And I say, AMEN!
