Examples of Obtaining Favour

Abraham

Genesis 23:10-11

Ephron the Hittite was sitting among his people and he replied to Abraham in the hearing of all the Hittites  who had come to the gate  of his city.   “No, my lord,” he said. “Listen to me; I give  you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. I give it to you in the presence of my people. Bury your dead.”

Joseph

Genesis 39:2

The Lord was with Joseph  so that he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master.

Joshua

Joshua 6:27

So the Lord was with Joshua,  and his fame spread  throughout the land.

David

1 Samuel 18:14

In everything he did he had great success,  because the Lord was with  him

Abigail

1 Samuel 25:3

His name was Nabal and his wife’s name was Abigail.  She was an intelligent and beautiful woman, but her husband was surly and mean in his dealings—he was a Calebite.

Daniel

Daniel 1:8-9

But Daniel resolved not to defile  himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way.   Now God had caused the official to show favor  and compassion  to Daniel,

Now Daniel so distinguished himself among the administrators and the satraps by his exceptional qualities that the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom.

Samuel

1 Samuel 2:26

And the boy Samuel continued to grow  in stature and in favor with the Lord and with people.
