God's Favour Is The Ultimate.
The favour of God is better than that of man.

We might be passing through many challenges in life and we decide to seek favour from man due to our current situation. The favor we mostly seek during this moment are the ones that will benefit us only in the present and not in the future. God wants favour that will also benefit us in the future.
Example from the Bible. When Joseph as in the prison, he interpreted dreams for the two men who were also with him there. He said to one that he will be killed, why the other come out from prison. When the other one was to come out, Joseph told him to tell the king about him.
It had been a good thing for Joseph that his fellow prisoner help him to get out of the prison, but that is not what God wants for him. God wants the best for his future and getting out of prison at the moment will only benefit him in the present. God wants Joseph to solve problems for the king so that he can be highly favoured and have a great future, which is the prime minister he became after he came out of prison.
Sometimes we just want to settle for less because of our situation, and we immediately seek favour from those who God have ordained us to be better than. Joseph was seeking favour from someone he would be greater than and he did not know because of he was overwhelmed by his current situation.
Child of God, you must know who you are today. You are great. Don't Seek favor from mere men. Seek favor from Kings, because you are also one from a kingdom which is not of this world.
You will be greatly favoured both in the present and in the future.
