God said to Moses, I <em>\u2018will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy<\/em>\u2019. And Moses said start with me. And it occurred to me that it appears that it is people that ask that receive. It is people that go to God and place a demand for it that God releases to. So Moses said, God here I am [<a title=\"Read the Bible\" href=\"https:\/\/bible.com\/116\/exo.34.8-9.nlt\" target=\"_blank\">Ex.34:8-9<\/a>]. I pray to God like this <!--more-->sometimes. I say to God, \u2018Lord, You know that if You just decide to favour me in a very awesome way, let\u2019s see who will question you. Favour me first then we will see who will question You\u2019 [Kaabioo esi!].<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The third thing you have to know about attracting God\u2019s favour is, it kind of locates the people that are called \u2018God pleasers\u2019. God\u2019s favour locates people that please God. <em>\u2018The Lord says, \u201cI will rescue those who love me.<\/em><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>I will protect those who trust in my name\u2019 <\/em><a title=\"Read the Bible\" href=\"https:\/\/bible.com\/116\/psa.91.14.nlt\" target=\"_blank\">Ps. 91:14<\/a>. God is saying that because David has set his love upon God, therefore He [God] will favour David. In other words, David has taken it upon himself to please God. If you have four children and as they grow, three of them don\u2019t care about you but one of them is always there for you. That particular child always gets stuff done for you, always makes sure you have money, makes sure you are happy, calls you, and sends you messages. What will happen over time is that your heart will be drawn to that child. And while you can pray for all your children, when you get to that child what happens is that your heart just explodes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is very similar with God, all of us are His children but have you checked on Him this morning? Have you prostrated before the King of kings and Lord of Lords? Have you gone flat on your face before Him today saying, \u2018I have just shown up Lord to say thank You for this morning. I have not come to ask for anything but I have come just to hang out with You. Over time what will happen is that God, because He is a person, will be craving for \u00a0you. \u2018The eyes of the Lord search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. What a fool you have been!
