The Favor of God Will Change Your Life –Part 2
Dr RJ Sing
“For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God.”
His supernatural grace is so vast, the Bible says it is going to take all the ages to come for Him to show us all the riches of His grace in the kindness He’s given us in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 2:7 AMP “He did this that He might clearly demonstrate through the ages to come the immeasurable (limitless, surpassing) riches of His free grace (His unmerited favor) in [His] kindness and goodness of heart toward us in Christ Jesus.”
You don’t have to wait. God is pouring out His Favor on you right here and now, even before you were born again, He was giving you His favor, while you were still rebelling against Him. Romans 5:8 AMP “But God shows and clearly proves His [own] love for us by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) died for us.” It was God’s grace at work in your life that enabled you to be born again.
From the moment you stepped into the new life, the moment you made Jesus Lord, God’s favor began working nonstop on your behalf. Being born again was just the starting place for His favor to pour out and He will pour out grace and more favor to you every moment of your life, if you will receive it.
