Isaiah 66:2 says, These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and

contrite in spirit,
and who tremble at my word. Second Chronicles 16:9 says, For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro
throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong on behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward
him. To be perfect toward Him means we seek His favor more than we seek the favor of anyone else,
even ourselves.
