"For God does not show favoritism."(Rom. 2:11,NLT) One thing we must note is that, even though God doesn't show favoritism, there are some people who received God's favor in one way or the other in the Bible. The point is, God can choose to favor anyone if He wants to, but we shouldn't think some people don't deserve anything from God. He is a just God and not partial. If it happens that His hand of favor falls on someone, it doesn't mean he or she is His favorite. "The Lord is good to everyone. He showers compassion on all His creation."(Ps. 145:9,NLT) God does not have favorites, but He certainly would favor anyone who favors His course and stands for Him. "Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs."(Dan. 1:9,KJV) Once a person honors God and does what pleases Him, he puts Himself in a place where he can easily attract favor from God. It doesn't make them favorites, but it is God who decides to grant them favor. AB@TWD
