   S03E22 - What Does It Mean To Please God?

   Podcast Episode Description: Actions That Please God and Attract His Favor Welcome family to this week’s episode of Perspective Shift: Unveiling Paradigms in Perceptions. Last week, we explored how favor is connected to what pleases God. This week, we take the discussion further by examining the actions Scripture identifies as pleasing in His sight. Using the account of Noah as an illustration, we explore the relationship between God’s provision and our response. God made provision for Noah’s salvation, but Noah also had to act on God’s instructions. In the same way, understanding God’s principles requires more than knowing what He has made available. We must also respond in accordance with His Word. Through Scripture, we examine the actions that please God, including faith, obedience, righteous living, walking in love, doing good, giving, prayer, humility, thanksgiving, worship, repentance, and more. We also explore the distinctions between praise, thanksgiving, and worship, and why the condition of the heart matters in what we offer to God. If we understand that Scripture connects God’s pleasure with His favor, then the question becomes: Are we engaging in the actions that please Him, or are we merely asking for what His Word teaches us to pursue through our walk with Him? Join us as we examine these biblical principles and discover what Scripture teaches about living in a way that pleases God. Perspective Shift: Unveiling Paradigms in Perceptions.

   S03E21 - Scriptural Ways To Grow In Favor

   How to Obtain Favor from God According to Scripture Can we pray for God to give us favor with Himself? Scripture presents a different picture. In previous discussions, we established that favor is not something we simply pray into manifestation. Scripture shows that we can grow in favor. This raises an important question: How do we grow in favor with God? The Bible distinguishes between finding favor with God and finding favor with people. We can ask God to grant us favor before others, because He can cause us to find favor in their sight. But when it comes to favor with God, God Himself is the One before whom we seek favor. Therefore, the question is not, “How do I get God to give me favor?” but rather, “What does Scripture say about the way we walk before God?” In this episode of Perspective Shift: Unveiling paradigms in perceptions, we examine what Scripture reveals about growing in favor with God. We explore: Mercy and truth — Proverbs 3:3–4 connects holding mercy and truth in our hearts with finding favor in the sight of God and man. Wisdom — Proverbs 8:35 connects finding wisdom with obtaining favor from the LORD. Good understanding — Proverbs 13:15 shows that good understanding gains favor. Righteous living — Proverbs 12:2 connects the life of a good man with obtaining favor from the LORD. Walking uprightly — Psalm 84:11 shows God's gracious dealings with those who walk uprightly. Humility — Proverbs 3:34 connects God's grace with humility. Integrity in difficulty — Joseph's life in Genesis 39 demonstrates that God's favor does not mean the absence of trouble. Joseph experienced God's presence and favor even through false accusation, imprisonment, and difficult circumstances. Pleasing God — Hebrews 11:6 reminds us that faith is essential to pleasing Him. The biblical pattern is important: favor is not merely about what God gives us; it is also connected to how we walk before Him. Rather than reducing favor to material blessings, open doors, or favorable circumstances, this episode examines favor through the lens of Scripture, character, wisdom, righteousness, humility, integrity, and a life that pleases God. The question is not simply, “How can I obtain favor?” The deeper question is, “How does Scripture say I should walk before God so that I find favor with Him?”

   S03E20 - Stop Measuring Favor By Circumstances

   Stop Measuring Favor by Circumstances What if we have been measuring God’s favor by the wrong standard? In this episode of Perspective Shift: Unveiling Paradigms in Perceptions, we explore why favorable circumstances are not necessarily proof of God’s favor—and why difficult circumstances are not proof that His favor has disappeared. Joseph’s life gives us a powerful example. He experienced God’s favor in Potiphar’s house, yet that favor did not prevent him from being falsely accused or imprisoned. His circumstances changed, but God’s presence and favor remained. This challenges us to look beyond what is happening around us and examine who we are in Christ and how we walk with God. Proverbs 3:3–4 connects mercy, truth, and finding favor with God and man. The issue is not merely what we receive from God, but what is being formed within us. As mercy and truth become written on the tablet of our hearts, they begin to shape the way we live, make decisions, and relate to others. We also examine the two sons in Jesus’ parable of the prodigal son. One left his father’s house and eventually came to himself, while the other remained in the house but failed to recognize what he already possessed. Both had an identity problem. The father had to remind both sons of who they were. This raises an important question: Do we truly understand our identity in Christ? Jesus never modeled a life of continually asking for favor. Instead, Scripture tells us that He “increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men” (Luke 2:52, NKJV). What if our focus should be less on asking God to give us something He has already provided and more on growing in our understanding of who we are in Him? We explore how righteousness, faith, identity, and the way we live are connected—and why trials should not become the measure of whether God is with us. Favor is not measured by the absence of trouble. Sometimes the greatest evidence of what God has placed within us is how we walk through the trouble. Join us as we shift our perspective from circumstances to identity, from what we see around us to what Scripture says about who we are in Christ.
