No Favoritism

Peter said, “Now I know for certain that God doesn’t show favoritism with people but treats everyone on the same basis. It makes no difference what race of people one belongs to. If they show deep reverence for God, and are committed to doing what’s right, they are acceptable before him.” — Acts 10:34-35 (TPT) My fellow believers, do not practice your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of partiality [toward people—show no favoritism, no prejudice, no snobbery]. (James 2:1 AMP) Let us be like our Heavenly Father and not show partiality to any person. Praise the LORD! (Hallelujah!) Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who fears the LORD [with awe-inspired reverence and worships Him with obedience], who delights greatly in His commandments. (Psalms 112:1 AMP) God blesses us, and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him [with awe-inspired reverence and submissive wonder]. (Psalms 67:7 AMP) When all has been heard, the end of the matter is: f...

Could God govern if he hated justice? Are you going to condemn the almighty judge?For he says to kings, ‘You are wicked,’ and to nobles, ‘You are unjust.’ He doesn’t care how great a person may be, and he pays no more attention to the rich than to the poor. He made them all. — Job 34:17-19 (NLT) …“I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality, but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is welcome to Him.” (See Acts 10:34-35 NASB1995) The Lord is not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance. (See 2 Peter 3:9 NASB1995) God shows personal favoritism to no man. (See Galatians 2:6 NKJV) If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9 NASB1995) As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us. (Psalms 103:12 NASB1995) He redeems your life from destruction, and crowns you with lovingkindness and tender m...

Opening his mouth, Peter said: “I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality, but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is welcome to Him.” — Acts 10:34-35 (NASB1995) There is no favoritism, with our heavenly Father. God, our Savior, desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. (1 Timothy 2:4 NASB1995) For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:12-13 NKJV) And consider the patience of our Lord [His delay in judging and avenging wrongs] as salvation [that is, allowing time for more to be saved]… (See 2 Peter 3:15 AMP)  Seek the LORD while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near. — Isaiah 55:6 (NKJV)

Wisdom from Above

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. — James 3:17 (NKJV) Jealousy and selfishness are not God’s kind of wisdom. Such things are earthly, unspiritual, and demonic (James 3:15 NLT). Real wisdom, God’s wisdom, begins with a holy life and is characterized by getting along with others (Proverbs 3:17, MSG). It is also peace-loving, and gentle at all times. Instead of being combative and trying to force it’s own way, it’s full of compassion and willing to yield to others. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere (James 3:17 NLT). Let us walk in God’s kind of wisdom, the wisdom that is from above.

No Partiality

For God shows no partiality [undue favor or unfairness; with Him one man is not different from another]. — Romans 2:11 (AMP) God does not show favoritism and there is no partiality with Him. He loves each and every one of us. And there is nothing on this earth or in heaven that can separate us from His love. Psalm 139:17 (NLT) declares, “How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered!” May we be as consumed with thoughts about God and share His unconditional love with everyone He brings our way.

No Favorites!

But there will be glory, honor, and peace for every person who does what is good, for Jews first and Greeks as well. God does not play favorites. — Romans 2:10-11 (GW) In the families in which we grew up, we may have felt one of our siblings were favored by mom or dad. However, in God's family, He has no favorites. There is no partiality with God. He loves us all and nothing can separate us from His great love! Every person who habitually does good will be rewarded by our heavenly Father. Embrace the way God does things, and live in glory, honor and peace.
