The favour of God will change your life! – Part 3
Nwabeke
That may not be easy for you to do, if you’re covered up by challenging circumstances presently. You will have to stare those challenges in the face and declare to them you’re favoured by God, when they are telling you, “Hey, stupid, things are terrible. It’s all over. You don’t have any hope.”
But, I’m telling you, you can do it! There are plenty of scriptures for you to stand on that affirm you are surrounded by God’s love and favour.
You may be in need of a job, the next step in your life toward God’s plan and purpose for you. Many people are in that place today. When you go in for that job interview, favour is what you should believe God for. Look up favour scriptures, speak them over that job and just go in there expecting the Lord to give you favour.
Remember, He favours you! Someone else may look better on paper than you do, but when you go in there, God’s favour goes before you. That interviewer will think, Well, you know, that guy over there has done more—or been to school more or done something else more—but there’s just something about this guy here. I like this guy. What is it about him? I don’t know, but I like him. I’m going to give him a shot at this job. That’s favour and you’ve got it all over you!
• You Must Release Your Faith for God’s Favour
That’s what Abraham, the father of our faith, did. The circumstances looked hopeless, when God promised him he would be the father of many nations. His age. Sarah’s lifelong barrenness. How could it be? They received God’s promise by faith and God’s favour.
[For Abraham, human reason for] hope being gone, hoped in faith that he should become the father of many nations, as he had been promised. So [numberless] shall your descendants be. He did not weaken in faith, when he considered the [utter] impotence of his own body, which was as good as dead because he was about a hundred years old, or [when he considered] the barrenness of Sarah’s [deadened] womb.
No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning God’s promise, but he grew strong and was empowered by faith, as he gave praise and glory to God, fully satisfied and assured that God was able and mighty to keep His word and to do what He had promised…. [Righteousness, standing acceptable to God] will be granted and credited to us also who believe in (trust in, adhere to, and rely on) God, Who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead…. Through Him also we have [our] access (entrance, introduction) by faith into this grace (state of God’s favor) in which we [firmly and safely] stand…. (Romans 4:18-21, 24, 5:2, AMPC).
Look at Romans 5:2 again. We have access by faith into grace! God’s favour surrounds us—our faith releases it! Glory to God!
So, we are just like Abraham. That’s how it is in life for all of us. Sometimes, things look bad. But we have to learn when we walk in faith and face natural facts, we believe God anyway. We grow to the point where we can hear bad news without wavering in our faith…and receive God’s favour, no matter the circumstances.
Receiving God’s favour by faith is a simple act on our part.
Get into God’s Word. Put the Word into your heart and speak it out of your mouth. Believe it and act on it. Receive it!
When you do that, you will be victorious in every area of your life. There is no situation, no circumstance—nothing—that is stronger than God’s grace…the favour that surrounds you.
Whatever you may be facing today, stand up and get right in its face and say this: “I’m a born-again child of Almighty God. His supernatural favour surrounds me like a shield this very moment. His grace is more than enough to deliver me out of this trouble. My faith is in God’s Word, and I’m coming out of this triumphantly by the favour of God!”
