God has favourite

It shouldn't sound strange to you unless you are not only paying attention to it. Let me even start with us in particular and that's from our family as a parent. I know we love our children very well but I am 100% sure that it has range or level.

We have that particular child that we so much love and cherish more than the others but we can't just make it obvious to the faces of our children so that we will not create hatred between them. We know deep down that there's a favourite among them, it might be the firstborn, the secondborn, the last born etc.

You don't have to pretend about it or let me say you might not have paid deep attention to it but it's the truth. We have that particular special love for the child, everything he does pleases us and if eventually, the child does a mistake, we will only correct such a child with love without hurting him too much.

If this can happen among humans then come to think of God who is our maker. Before I will buttress my point on God having a favourite, I will love to say this;

THERE'S NO FAVOURITE THAT GOD CAN NOT CHASTISE OR REBUKE.

God has a favourite and he appointed some people specially for his work. The fact that he didn't appoint us doesn't make us useless or not his favourite. We haven't just done what he loves or commanded us to do. Who will love a child that refuses to do his parent's commands? Of course no one but when such a child does everything his parent wants him or her to do, such a child will be loved and totally taken care of.

An example from the Bible is David, God so much loves David to the point that he called him his favourite, why? David knows how to praise God, obeys his commandment and knows how to ask for forgiveness genuinely whenever he has sinned against God. God surely punish him for his sins but was still God's favourite cos of all his good attributes towards him.

Another example from the Bible is Abraham, God loves Abraham to the point that when he was going to destroy the city of sodom and Gomorrah, he had to branch Abraham's house and tell him about it. It was then, Abraham was pleading to God asking for a particular number of people that can be found righteous in there because his cousin and his children were in that land.

There was a point God vouch for Abraham that I KNOW HE WILL SURELY TEACH HIS CHILDREN, there's this line in the Bible about Abraham. For God to vouch for Abraham, it shows Abraham has done all that God want him to do. He was also punished for his bad deed despite he was God's favourite.

So many Gods favourite in the Bible like that of Job, God vouch for him in front of the devil and he was a perfect man. He couldn't say a bad word unto God despite all the tribulations that befall him. No wonder, his days were so long and blessed that he saw four generations of his children and was blessed bountifully before he died.

All you have to do is hearken to God's words and do his commandment if you also want to be among God's favourites. God loves everyone but he loves some specially and that's because they do what he wants. God is never partial, it is we humans that see it like that.

I am happy this article happen to drop on a Sunday morning, so I will be glad to say Happy Sunday from here, make sure you go to church as a Christian.

Indeed, the more obedient we are, the more we became His favourite

God truly has favourites and i really agree to that. Those examples are true, we can't love everyone at the same level cos we have different behaviours.

This is very correct. God loves some people the more but that doesn't mean He can't put you in that spot. Just do what He says, then you're automatically qualified to be His favorite

Yeah well, I think that's close to the truth, but I don't think the word "favorite" is appropriate when referring to God. What about "chosen one?" yeah I know they sound very similar but saying God has a favorite kind of contradicts his attribute of being the Most Just. Gods chosen ones aren't chosen based on his special love for them in my opinion, but because of something God put inside of them, based on His own accord. ...and God knows best! 🙂
