Beneficiaries Of His Supernatural
Favour · Friday 05
Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her,
yea, the set time, is come (Psalm 102:13).
Noah presents us with a good example of a man who
walked in favour with God. Genesis 6:8 tells us that, "...Noah found grace
in the eyes of the LORD"; thus, when God decided to destroy the earth by
flood, He instructed Noah to build an ark to protect him from the deluge. As it
rained, it didn’t matter the extent of the flood, and the destruction it left
in its wake for the people of the world; the same waters bore Noah’s ark up. He
didn’t have to bother about the flood, because he was in favour with God.
Romans 5:17 lets us know that God has granted us
abundance of grace; meaning we’re in favour with Him. Accordingly, you’re
expected to live and walk with the consciousness of one who’s favoured of the
Lord. No matter what happens in the world, refuse to fret; you’re not of the
world. Maintain this consciousness or otherwise you’ll be walking against the
Word of God without realizing it, thereby exposing yourself to unnecessary
challenges, difficulties and frustrations, because you’re not living in the
consciousness of God’s favour.
Walking in favour doesn’t mean that the flood will
not come. Remember, He warned Noah ahead of the flood, and instructed him
to build an ark and stay in the ark. It would have been foolish for Noah to
pray against the water, instead of acting on the Word to build and stay in the
ark. Live in the ark of God—His Word—and you’ll never be disadvantaged in life,
because you’ve found favour with the Lord.
There’re some who think that if everything is all
right, then they’ll find favour with God; no. It’s the favour of God on your
life that makes everything all right, and not the other way round. God wants
you to have the consciousness; the awareness that nothing is designed to work
against you! No matter what happens, you can always win, because you’re the
object of God’s overwhelming love and supernatural grace.
Confession
The favour of God is functioning in and
through me. I’ve received abundance of grace; therefore, I walk in
righteousness and dominion! I’m the object of God’s supernatural grace and
unfailing love. Blessed be God!
