Most people live lives of robotic repetition\u2026 they are just going through the motions, and about 90% of those motions are the same ones \xa0they went through yesterday. Most people follow routines and rituals they have never consciously thought through.

Spiritual Foundations Favor Is Pursuing You!Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
(Psalm 23:6)
I have a friend \u2013 let's call him Pete \u2013 who seems to have the Midas Touch. Everything he touches turens to gold.
He publishes a book, it's a NYT Best Seller.
He sells a product online, it makes millions.
His family is the family everyone dreams of.
But it's not King Midas' touch \u2013 it's the touch of the One True King, Jesus.
In the Bible, there was another King, David, who was known as a man after God\u2019s own heart.
His outlook on life was instructive.
In Psalm 23, he says, \u201cGoodness and mercy are following me.\u201d
David expected favor. He expected goodness. One translation says, \u201cGod\u2019s kindness chases me everywhere that I go.\u201d
King David\u2019s attitude was \u201csomething good is going to happen to me. Favor is following me. Wherever I go, God\u2019s blessings are pursuing me. \u201d
It's no mystery why David overcame great obstacles, and saw his dreams come true. He was positive that goodness was chasing him down like the \u201chound of heaven.\u201d
And God's goodness is chasing YOU right now.
That same Psalm says \u201cI lack nothing.\u201d
So what's chasing you is not lack. It's not failure. It's not sickness. It's not depression or anxiety.
God says you are a royal priest, a child of the king, and heir to the promises given to Abraham, a co-heir with Christ.
God says all your debts have been paid. You're redeemed from every curse.
Divine connections, restoration of what was lost, favor, grace, and blessings \u2026 all in hot pursuit of YOU, wherever you are!
God\u2019s goodness and mercy are chasing you \u2013 all the days of your life!
Pray this prayer with me:
Daddy thank you for the gift of righteousness and the abundance of grace. thanks for your goodness and mercy! Today I'll be looking for your goodness and mercy in my life. Amen!
