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!
SPECIAL NOTE
***********
Miracles don't go to where they are
needed; they go to where they are expected.
Spiritual seed produces spiritual
harvest.
Physical seed produces physical
harvest.
Financial seed produces financial
harvest.
To Receive a "Right Now" Miracle
which is God's Will for you, you must learn how to:
Pray in the Now
Prophesy in the Now
And, sow seed in the Now for a not
yet miracle.
May The Almighty God by Whom all
things are possible grant your heart desire.
