Luke 15:11-13 “…A man had two sons. The younger son told his father, ‘I want my share of your estate now before you die.’ So his father agreed to divide his wealth between his sons. … younger son …moved to a distant land, and there he wasted all his money in wild living.”

Favour vs. Mercy
Exodus 33:17-19 “The Lord replied to Moses, “…for I look favourably on you, and I know you by name.” Moses responded, “Then show me your glorious presence.” The Lord replied, “I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will call out my name, Yahweh, before you…”
In Exodus 33:12-19 (please read), if you do not pay attention, you may miss this part, and it is because we miss it easily. Moses said to God, “If I have found favour (grace) in Your eyes, then show me Your face (let me see You).” Read the rest of this entry

Requirement
Daniel 6:3 “Daniel soon proved himself more capable than all the other administrators and high officers. Because of Daniel’s great ability, the king made plans to place him over the entire empire.”
