Do you know the purpose of God’s favour on your Life?
The purpose of FAVOUR is to open a DOOR of access for you. That door positions you to invade the GATES of Hell. Favour increases your proximity to the gates of Hell. Favour releases a divine promotability on your life in the presence of rulers. That’s because favour is JESUS. It’s His favour working in you and through you at moments of breakthrough.
Favour is a weapon to take territory and a shield to protect from backlash. If you seek favour just for financial increase, you are playing way too small.
Favour gets you through the door and the door gets you into the gate where spiritual forces operate over the lives of people in the organization. God wants to position His wisdom at the gates. He wants kingdom ideas and values at the top. He wants influencers. Do you understand what favour is meant to accomplish?
For years I’ve been in conversations where requests for prayer come up and people ask for “favour” on an appointment.
The word and the concept is powerful, but I fear it is being used as the spiritual equivalent of a charismatic rabbit’s foot we rub with a quick prayer to add some spiritual edge to our sales activity.
Is that what “favour” really is? A supernatural “extra something” that moves people to buy whatever it is we are selling? What if your product isn’t as good as someone else’s? What if it’s good but the industry changes and it’s obsolete in 9 months? Was saying “yes” to you, good for them?
Repeatedly in Scripture, when someone is chosen for a task their name is linked to the term “favour.” For example: “and God brought Daniel into favour with the chief of the Eunuchs,” or “and God gave Joseph favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh.” Likewise, when the angel came to Mary, “Behold thou, highly favoured of The Lord….” And David released this Psalm: “Thou shalt compass me with favour as a shield.”
I’ve been thinking about this. Daniel risked his life for his beliefs in a lion’s den. Favour helped reverse that. Joseph had to solve a national crisis and favour was necessary to save his family from starvation and servitude. Favour kept David from having his life ended by Saul. In every case favour opened a door to the top and presented a gate where God’s people “sat with their enemies at the gate” and safeguarded their fellow Jews by being present where the decisions were made.
In my own life, I have experienced tremendous favour as I have obediently walked where the Lord has led. Most recently, this has been in the Media Mountain. It’s been humbling to witness the support of friends as we walk out this call and also exciting to see the hearts and minds of individuals and nations changed through the media we have released at the gates of influence.
