The Favor of God Will Change Your Life –Part 6
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.”
When you are declaring favor, it may not be easy for you to do if you are covered up by challenging circumstances. You will have to stare those challenges in the face and declare to them you are favored by God when they are telling you, “Hey stupid, things are terrible, it’s all over, you don’t have any hope, but keep telling yourself that you can do it.
There are plenty of scriptures for you to stand on that affirm you are surrounded by God’s favor. You may be in need of a job, the next step in your life towards God’s plan and purpose for you. Many people are in that place today. When you go for that job interview, favor is what you should believe God for.
Look up favor scriptures, speak them over that job and just go in there expecting the Lord to give you favor. Remember, He favors you! Someone else may look better on paper than you do, but when you go in there, the favor of God 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, that he likes and then gives him a shot at this job. That’s favor and you’ve got it all over you.
