Supernatural Favor
Supernatural Favor
Supernatural Favor is God’s Grace.
When God gives supernatural favor, it will make no
sense to people around you. There will be nothing natural about it. It simply
happens supernaturally!
If God says He will bless and anoint you, what can
stop it?
Nothing!
All the devils of hell cannot stop it!
Mounting debt cannot stop it.
Famine cannot stop it.
Bad economic news cannot stop it!
Let’s
take a look at some instances of special Grace in Scripture:
To
Enoch:
The Bible tells us in Genesis 5 that Enoch’s days on
earth were 365 years and he was taken away by God.
That’s Supernatural Favor!
And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five
years:
And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him
(vv.23-24 KJV).
To
Noah:
After the Lord said in Genesis 6:7
“I
will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and
beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth Me
that I have made them.”
Verse 8 says, “But Noah found Grace in the eyes of the Lord” (KJV).
To
Abraham:
When his name was still ‘Abram,’ God Almighty said
to him:
“I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and
make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that
curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” (Gen
12:2-3 KJV)
In chapter 17 we read that when Abram was 99 years
old, the Lord appeared to him, and said to him, “I am the Almighty God; walk before Me, and be thou perfect” (v.1 KJV).
The Lord went on saying to him:
“And I will make My Covenant between Me and thee, and will
multiply thee exceedingly” (verse 2 KJV).
“As for Me, behold, My Covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be
a father of many nations” (verse 4 KJV).
Furthermore, the Lord said to him:
“Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name
shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations
of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
And I will establish My Covenant between Me and thee and thy
seed after thee in their generations for an Everlasting Covenant, to be a God
unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
Gen 17:5-7 KJV
To
Isaac:
The Lord favored Isaac with a wife from his father's
country and kindred.
When Abraham's servant travelled to the vicinity of
his kindred within Mesopotamia, he said: “O Lord
God of my master Abraham, I pray Thee, send me good speed this day, and shew
kindness unto my master Abraham” (24:12 KJV).
Complete Jewish Bible renders this verse like this: “Adonai, God of my master Avraham, please
let me succeed today; and show Your Grace to my master Avraham.”
So, we find the word “grace.”
Verse 67 records: And Isaac brought her into his mother
Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and
Isaac was comforted after his mother's death (KJV).
Genesis 25:11 tells us: And it came to pass after the death of
Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahai-roi
(KJV)
Later, in chapter 26, the Lord appeared to Isaac, and
said to him:
“Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell
thee of: Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee;
for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will
perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;
And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and
will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the
nations of the earth be blessed” (vv.2-4 KJV)
And, in Genesis 26:18 we read:
And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged
in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after
the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his
father had called them (KJV)
To
Jacob:
Jacob wrestled with God.
Within the hours of this necessary event in his
life, Jacob said to the Angel of the Lord:
“I will not let Thee go, except Thou bless me” (v.26 KJV).
In verse 28, God declared to him:
“Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a
prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed” (v.28 KJV)
Jacob prevailed "as a prince," therefore;
the name Jacob which means ‘supplanter’ was not favorable to his destiny. 'Supplanter'
means to supersede or replace; it means to take the place of another.
God gave him the name "Israel" (prince
with God)—a suitable name for his destiny—‘as a prince who has power with God
and with men, and prevailed.’
Jacob testified: “I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved”
(see verse 30).
To
Moses
When God said to Moses “Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh…” (Ex.3:10)
Moses said, “Who
am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children
of Israel out of Egypt?” (v.11)
Then, God said: “Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token
unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out
of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain” (KJV).
That’s Favor!
To
Solomon
When King David prepared for the building of the
Lord's Temple, He said: “Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that
is to be builded for the Lord must be exceeding magnifical, of fame and of
glory throughout all countries: I will therefore now make preparation for it.”
(1 Chron. 22:5 KJV)
He called for Solomon his son, and charged him to
build a house for the Lord God of Israel.
David said to Solomon:
“My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build an house unto the
Name of the Lord my God:
But the Word of the Lord came to me, saying, Thou hast shed
blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build an house unto
My Name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in My sight.
Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest;
and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall
be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.
He shall build an house for My Name; and he shall be My son, and
I will be his Father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over
Israel for ever.
Now, my son, the Lord be with thee; and prosper thou, and build
the house of the Lord thy God, as He hath said of the” (vv.7-11 KJV)
Solomon was a ‘man of rest,’ and so the land of
Israel enjoyed peace and quietness in the days of his reign.
David prepared for the house of the Lord: tons of
gold, silver, bronze and iron, wood and stone— stonecutters, masons and
carpenters, and men skilled in every kind of work in gold and silver, bronze
and iron-craftsmen. Then, he made this remarkable statement to Solomon charging
him to build the Temple:
“Is not the Lord your God with you? and hath He not given you
rest on every side? for He hath given the inhabitants of the land into mine
hand; and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before His people.
Now set your heart and your soul to seek the Lord your God;
arise therefore, and build ye the sanctuary of the Lord God, to bring the ark
of the Covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that
is to be built to the Name of the Lord” (vv.22:18-19 KJV)
The Favor of God was upon Solomon who became King
over Israel.
He was the greatest human-king, and the richest man
that ever lived!

Manna for Today!
Manna for Today!
“The Lord speaks every day to each one of His
people. They cannot live by bread alone; but must have the words that proceed
from His mouth.
Many are weak because they do not know how to gather
the manna that the Lord gives to them each day. They go astray because they do
not know His Voice. His sheep know His Voice, and they follow Him because they
recognize it.
The manna is the Bread of Life that each of His
people is given each day.
His manna may come to you through the words of a
close friend or one of His people who lived long before you as you ponder their
writings. Many repeat the words that He has spoken, but His manna is the Word
that He is speaking now.
We need the strong meat of the Scriptures to build
ourselves up and give us the container for gathering His manna. Grow strong on
the meat of His written Word, but also develop a taste for His manna.
The meat of His written Word will build us up and
prepare us for what is to come, but manna will sustain us through what lies
ahead.
Manna is the Bread of Life—the Living Words which He
speaks to His people daily and are spoken through His people. The Scriptures
are set and cannot be changed. They are the anchor for our souls. However, the
Book of Life is still being written. He writes a new chapter in the Book of
Life with each soul that comes to Him.”
If you are to know His Words, you must know both the
Scripture and His manna. The Scriptures are His eternal plans that will not
change which we must know to walk in His ways. His manna gives us the strength
to walk each day. This is so that we might have fellowship. “…if we walk in the Light, as He is in the Light, we have fellowship one
with another…” (1 John 1:7KJV)
Just as the sure communication between a general and
his soldiers can determine the outcome of the battle, the strength of His
communication with His people will determine their victory or defeat in the days
to come.
All of His people must know His Voice. The time will
soon be upon us when all who do not know His Voice will be deceived by the
darkness.”
TRUTH AND LIFE
TRUTH AND LIFE
“The Authority that the Lord is about to give His people is
the Anointing for true Unity.
When there was just two brothers on the earth, they could
not live in peace with one another.
From Abel’s time until now, mankind has walked in the way of
increasing darkness.
Prophetically the Church knows that murder will be released
on the earth as never before. Even the World Wars were but birth pangs leading
to what is to come. But remember this: ‘Love is stronger than death.’ The Love
that the Father is about to give to those who serve Him will overcome death.”
“Abel’s blood still speaks. The blood of every martyr still
speaks. Your message will live on if you trust in the Life that you have in God
more than you trust in the life that you have on earth.
Do not fear death, and you will overcome it. Those who do
not fear death will have the greatest message during the times we are entering,
when death is released on the earth.”
“The Blood Sacrifice has already been made for us. We must
continue to trust the Power of the Cross, for it is greater than life. When you
trust the Cross, you cannot die.
Those on earth have power for a time to take your earthly
life, but they cannot take your life if you have embraced the Cross.”
“A great unity will come to the Lord’s people who dwell on
the earth, because of the discord and conflict that arises in the darkness, the
unity of His people will be a sign that the whole earth will see. His disciples
will be known by their love, and love does not fear. Only true love can bring
true unity. Those who love will never fall. True love does not grow cold, but
true love does grow.”
The Lords Glory
The Lord’s Glory
The Lord’s
Glory burns from the inside out.
He is more
brilliant than the sun.
His eyes
are like fire, but not red; they are blue, like the hottest part of the fire.
They are fierce, yet have the attraction of an endless wonder.
His feet
also are like flames of fire, of a bronze flame. They are beautiful, but also
fearsome.
The Foundation of Wisdom and Knowledge
The Foundation of Wisdom
and Knowledge
The Book of Revelation
Rick Joyner
The
next verse in our study is Revelation 1:17:
And
when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me,
saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last” (NKJV).
At
the time John received this revelation, he was the only one of the twelve still
alive. Therefore, he had walked with the Lord Jesus more than any other
apostle. The most intimate of the apostles with Jesus, John would lean his head
up against the Lord’s breast as they reclined for their last meal together.
Even with this remarkable history, when John saw the Lord in His glory, he fell
at His feet like a dead man!
One
of the biggest sources of spiritual delusion and false doctrine in the church
today is the lack of the fear of the Lord. He is an awesome God not to be
trifled with. Psalm 111:10 and Proverbs 9:10 tells us that “The fear of the
Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Proverbs 1:7 says that “The fear of the Lord
is the beginning of knowledge.” So the fear of the Lord is the foundation of
both wisdom and knowledge.
A
foundation holds up an entire building. If you remove it, everything built upon
it collapses. So it is with foundational doctrines like the fear of the Lord—we
never leave them.
Some
modern translations of the Scriptures have been diluted or corrupted by
seemingly trying to be politically correct, or more afraid of offending readers
than adhering to strict translations of the Word of God. Some have translated
the Hebrew and Greek words for “fear” in these texts into a milder “respect.”
If you search out these words in the original translation, you’ll find that a
more accurate translation than “fear” would have been “terror.” John
experienced this when he beheld the Lord. When you fall on the ground “like a
dead man,” it is not a mild form of fear.
The
Lord also wants to relate to His people as a loving bridegroom to His bride.
This is why the Apostle Paul wrote that we must “behold then the kindness and
severity of God” (see Romans 11:22). To know God as He is, we must relate to
both His kindness and severity. There are times and places for both, but in
John’s revelation, He is mostly revealed as the awesome and terrifying God. If
we cannot handle this, we do not have a proper foundation in the fear of the
Lord and do not fully know Him as He is.
He
wants to give this revelation of Himself to His bondservants, and we must
embrace it. As we will see, this is mostly how He will reveal Himself during
the church age. This is the foundation of wisdom and knowledge, and without a
solid foundation nothing of significance can be safely built. A gentler
revelation of Him is given at the end of Revelation, and we will rightly
understand it when it is built upon the foundation of the pure and holy fear of
the Lord.
God
is our loving Heavenly Father, and you can crawl up on His lap and feel His
gentle touch of deep affection. We need this, but we also need to keep in mind
that He is an awesome Almighty God. Those who only see His kindness are at
least half deceived. Those who only see His severity are also at least half
deceived. It takes knowing and walking in the tension of both that keeps us on
the path of life.
The Presentation of Jesus Christ in the 66 Books of the Bible - Part 36
In Mark He is “The
Servant of The Lord.”
In Mark the Lord is presented as “the Servant of the
Lord”— active, compassionate, and obedient; Who constantly ministers to the
physical and spiritual needs of others. He said to His disciples:
“Not so with you. Instead,
whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants
to be first must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be
served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many" (Mark
10:43-45 NIV).
Because this is the story of God’s divine faithful
Servant in human-nature, Mark omits Jesus’ ancestry and birth and moves right
into His public ministry.
Christ is constantly moving toward a goal that is
hidden to almost all. The Gospel According to Mark clearly shows the Power and
Authority of the Servant of the Lord.
Jesus is the perfect example of humility. Although being essentially one with the
Father—possessing the fullness of the attributes which make God God, but
stripped Himself of all divine Privileges, rightful Dignity and Glory, and came
to Earth in the likeness of man to redeem man. He carried His obedience to the
extreme of death, even the death of the cross!
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be
equal with God:
But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of
a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, and
became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a Name
which is above every name:
That at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in
Heaven, and things in Earth, and things under the Earth;
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the Glory of God the Father.
Phil 2:5-11 KJV
The Lord your God is with you
“The Lord your God is with you,
He is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
He will quiet you with His Love,
He will rejoice over you with singing."
Zeph.
3:17 NIV
I feel Your Pain
Words
of Truth
“I
feel Your Pain”
“I feel your pain. I know your trials because we share them. I feel
the pain and the joy of every soul.that is why I still intercede continually
for all of you. There will be a time when all tears are wiped away from every
eye. There will be a time when only joy is known again. Until then, pain can be
used.
Do not waste your trials. Your greatest worship and the greatest
expression of your faith that pleases Us will come in the midst of your trials.
You must see Me in your own heart, and you must see Me in others.
You must see Me in the great and in the small. Your highest purpose is to
recognize Me, to hear My Voice and to follow Me.”
Abide In My Presence
Words
of Truth
“Abide In My Presence”
“Depression is the deception that comes from seeing the world from
your perspective. Truth comes from seeing the world through My eyes from where
I sit, at the right hand of the Father. Like the cherubim in Isaiah 6, those
who abide in My Presence will say, “The whole earth is filled with His Glory.”
When you dwell in My Presence, you will not see anything but Glory.
This does not mean that you will not see the conflicts, confusion, darkness and
deception that are in the world, but when you see them, you will always see My
answer to them. When you abide in Me, you will always see how Truth prevails
over deception, and you will see the manner in which My Kingdom will come.
When you start to live by what you see with the eyes of your heart,
you will walk with Me, and you will see My Glory. The eyes of your heart are
your window into the realm of the Spirit. Through the eyes of your heart, you
may come to My Throne of Grace, at any time. If you will come to Me, I will be
more real to you. I will also trust you with more Power.”
