How to experience Favour everywhere

Favour everywhere, everyday, with everyone!
What  exactly is Favour ? - Favour is being accepted or preferred, to receive approval, support or better treatment. Everyone likes to be favoured or as it were, given preferential treatment ,  a positive advantage, a position above others. In the country of my birth, it is believed that to be disfavoured is a curse.
Favour makes things work faster for you, it brings grace, mercy, help, gifts to be deposited to an individual  or group. It's an act of kindness beyond what is due or usual to ease, save or spare. Somewhat of what you would humanly call partiality, but let's look at it from God's perspective.
Is it true that some are favoured while some others are not? I discovered from the Bible (The Word of Truth), that anyone and everyone who desires to be favoured can actually be favoured- God is not a respecter  of persons;
Acts 10:33-34 KJV
Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God. [34] Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
In Christ Jesus, we are called to a life of uncommon favour; it's for all of God's people.
Psalm 106:4 KJV
Remember me, O Lord , with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;
One of God's blessings to us is divine favour
Psalm 5:12 KJV
For thou, Lord , wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
If favour is to be accepted, and we have been accepted in the beloved -(Ephesians 1:6), then favour is the right of every child of God. Matter of fact, salvation (being saved from the consequences  of Adam and Eve's disobedience) is a show of God's favour
Psalm 102:13 KJV
Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.
What are the benefits of divine favour

The Holy Spirit our guide

2. The Holy Spirit- Our Guide     You and i take tens and sometimes hundreds of decisions in a day,e.g Should i take a left or a right? Should i drive or take a bus? Should i speak or keep quiet? Should i take this route A or route B ?  Basically,these may not be spelt out in the Bible, yet we need to take decisions each day,and we all desire them to be right. Jesus knew this,an He said-- And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; (KJV)-John 14:16 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak:and he will shew you things to come. (KJV)--John 16:13 " Forever" He will be with us,all the time to lead us and guide us to take the right decisio .We need the Holy Spirit, we cannot go through Life trouble-free without Him.He knows the way,He is the true guide. As they ministered to the Lord, ...

HOW TO REMAIN STRONG IN THE MIDST OF CHALLENGES ( BOUYANCY)

How can you remain unshakeable and immoveable in the midst of struggles, difficulties and trials? Trials are part of the journey of life. These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. - John 16:33 ' Shall ', in the text, means they are bound to come, tribulation represents distressing, suffering, and trying experiences. The interesting thing is that trials work for our good, what you are going through is working for your good. Look at what the word of God says: Peter 1:6-7 KJV Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth , though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ . Romans 8:28 KJV And we know that all things work together for good to them...

TETELESTIA. - PAID IN FULL!

TETELESTIA. - PAID IN FULL! John 19:28,30 KJV After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. [30] When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. The Word, "Finished"(Tetelestai )comes from - teleo, which means “to bring to an end, to complete, to accomplish.” It’s a crucial word because it signifies the successful end to a particular course of action. It’s the word you would use when you make the final payment on a new acquisition. It means “I did exactly what I set out to do.” but in Jesus' case ,it meant " I have done exactly what the Father wants done". But there is more to the meaning of tetelestai. It means all of the above, but it especially applies to the price paid for the sins of the world. Goods only become completely ours when payment has been fully made. The phrase "it is finished" is loaded, a...
