<p class="subtitle" style="text-align: justify;">Oil of Favor: The Past Is the Past</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As each new day brings a reset for our lives in the wonder of the mercies of God, so can a new year. Since we have now entered 2025, no matter what 2024 held in the processes of God, we are always offered new mercies. Your times are in His hands and His mercies are new every morning.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">"My times&nbsp;<em>are</em>&nbsp;in Your hand; deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me." (Psalm 31:15)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">"<em>Through</em>&nbsp;the Lord's mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not.&nbsp;<em>They are</em>&nbsp;new every morning; great&nbsp;<em>is</em>&nbsp;Your faithfulness." (Lamentations 3:22–23)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Hebrew definitions of the word "mercies" in the context of Lamentations 3:22 are "kindness," "goodness," "beauty," and "favor" (Strong's H2617).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Recently I had an encounter with the Lord regarding this new season we stand in. The Lord was anointing His beloved with fresh oil, and I heard the Lord say, "The oil of favor."</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the context of Lamentations 3, here and now, there is a new mercy for a new season.</p>
