FAVOR- Grace It means access and power. generally good will, acceptance, and the benefits flowing from these; favor is “demonstrated delight.” Unseen advantage. The favor of God can be described as “tangible evidence that a person has the approval of the Lord.” When we favor someone, we want to be with him or her. We delight in him.
