Psalm 90:17

In Psalm 90 we read the prayer of Moses.  At verse 17 we read, "May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish for us the work of our hands- yes, establish the work of our hands."  This is the prayer of one of history's greatest leaders.

He asks for God's favor to be upon him, what would that be?  How do we see God's favor in our lives?  What makes an official give you a call in a charge / block situation?  Why does the football bounce to you, rather than away from you sometimes?  Why does your instructor give you a break in class when he doesn't have to?  Sometimes it's the favor of God upon you.

How would God establish the work of our hands?  What do you do with your hands that God should care to establish?  How many hours have you spent in the weight room?  How many miles have you run this year?  How many free throws have you shot during practices?  It's God's way to establish the hard work and effort we make by bringing them to full fruition. 

Let's join Moses in praying for God's favor and for His power to establish the work of our hands.
