The Favor of the Lord – Psalm 90:16-17
Moses has a simple prayer here as He
closes off this Psalm. Moses of course
was the greatest old
testament
prophet. He saw the Lord face to
face. His prayer is that the deeds of
the Lord is upon His
people. Moses wanted the people to see the tangible
proof of God. Reality is so much better
than
theory. He then prays that the splendor of God would
be in our children. His favor and
splendor is for
all
generations. This is theme and essence
of this psalm.
Moses then prays the favor of God upon the
people. Favor means approval, support
and kindness.
God does
this for His people. He loves all people
but that does not means His favor is on all people.
You make
the choice to step into the favor and blessing of God. Moses then asks the Lord to make the
work of
His hands to be given to people. Moses
had seen the visible working of God. He
wanted more
of
that. Moses saw mighty miracles. Supernatural exploits of God. God has liberated the people
through
His mighty hand. The greatest nation in
the world had been humbled by God. Moses
wanted
more of
that. Oh how we need this today. Let us prayer for divine intervention in our
world`s today.
