READ: Esther 2:12-18
“The king loved Esther more than all the women, and she found favor and kindness with him more than all the virgins, so that he set the royal crown on her head and made her queen instead of Vashti.” – Esther 2:17, NASB
Not everybody shows kindness. Most people are full of cruelty. God will send people who will show you kindness and favour. God can provide for you through the kindness and compassion of others.
One of the famous laws of Moses reveals the mind of Jehovah. God expects those that are rich to allow their riches to affect the less fortunate around them. God does not expect the rich to be miserly and calculating when dealing with poor people. “When you reap the harvest of your land, don’t reap the corners of your field or gather the gleanings. Leave them for the poor and the foreigners. I am God, your God” (Leviticus 23:22, The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language).
They are to overlook many things and allow the poor to benefit. They are to act as though they do not know about all their rightful possessions. They are to act as though they do not notice that some of their profits are lost. God has a mind to prosper poor people through the excessive riches of blessed people.
You can prosper because someone looks upon you favourably. Esther was one amongst thousands of available and willing ladies, yet she was chosen. Why? What did she have that others did not have? The answer is “favour.” Favour is when someone likes you without any good reason.
