When Christians say they are " highly favored" what does that mean

The phrase "highly favored" comes from the mouth of the angel Gabriel, when he appeared to the virgin mary and announced the Lords favor on her for being the one who would birth the messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ.

"And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women." Luke 1:28

I always took it too mean we are all God's children and he will never foresake his children. Thats my interpretation of that.

I dunno, I'm always mad, nigga. It means what it means though and doesn't take much deep thought but it seem like when shit boils down, everything is thrown on christians and I just find that shit to be funny and some fake ass shit. I think highly favored means being given a designated purpose in life by God, kinda like how God anointed Jacob to be many nations and changed his name to Israel. Dude was blessed and highly favored and from his offspring Israel was born but I wanna see a post targetting jews, muslims or some shit like that.

Scriptures are being fulfilled my brother. Jesus Christ said, "And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake." (Luke 21:27)

But like my sig says, if God is for us, who can be against us?

NO ONE! Hallelujah!

It's like this, I'm religious just like anyone that has a religion whether it's Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Wiccans, Zeitgeist or Mormons but I'm not an extremist because anything to the extreme becomes error. I have no reason to tell what hasn't been asked of me in that sense.

I don't consider myself an extremist and I really don't consider myself religious. I consider myself as having a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. That is my "religion". I am crucified with Christ, never the less I live, yet not I, but it is Chris that lives in me. I give Him all the glory, all the praise, and all the honor. When I boast I boast about Him. Because He saved me from eternal destruction. And when I am in His kingdom 10000000 billion years from now, I will still be offering up praises and thanks for the price He paid for my redemption. Hallelujah! Now if that is considered extremist in others peoples mind, so be it. Like the great apostle Paul stated in Philippians 2:12, believers are to "work out your own salvation with fear and trembling." And that's exactly what I will continue to do until the Lord calls me home or He comes. Praise His holy name and God bless.

I have a biblical world-view. So all my "opinions" are based on biblical truths and biblical facts.

I'm pretty sure God made us uniquely different with different minds, mentalities and purposes and gave us the opportunity to have freewill so we're not machines and our relationship that we have in Christ is a religion which makes us religious/spiritual beings but again, you have freewill so you should be able to separate your relationship with Christ from your relationship with your family, work and the world. That's all I'm saying, if you have one thing dominating a majority of your life, that just makes you a square so have balance in your life bruh.

I think it's simply because we live in America, and Christianity happens to be the dominant religion in America, thus the one we are most familiar with.
