How to experience Favour everywhere

By
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
  • It gives eternal life - Psalm 30:5
  • No enemy can triumph over you- Psalm 41:11
  • We easily get what others struggle for - Psalm 44:3
  • It brings promotion - Psalm 89:17
  • It helps us find good helpers- Proverbs 18:22
  • It delivers us from captivity- Psalm 85:1
  • Mankind everywhere favours you - Luke 2:52
  • It makes God have mercy on us - Isaiah 60:10
  • It makes our posterity ( our descendants) to be favoured - Daniel 1:4 & 9
  • You experience a life of approval, better treatment everywhere - Psalm 5:12

The Holy Spirit our guide

By
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, and

WHO TORE THE VEIL?

By
WHO TORE THE VEIL? Matthew 27:50-51 KJV Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; Jesus  being crucified was on the cross, the scriptures recorded that as He cried with a loud voice and gave up the ghost that the veil that separated the Holies where the priests performed sacrifices daily from the Holiest of All where the High Priest had access only once a year (Hebrews.9:7) to atone for his sins and for the sins of the people was torn in two from top to bottom. Now, let's look at this veil  - well,  it's not the kind of veil that brides wear on their wedding day or some kind of face covering mostly worn by women. This Veil translated as screen in Greek is a curtain - 4 inches thick,60ft high, about 30 -40ft wide. One piece of linen cloth woven with Blue, Purple and Scarlet,it is said that it would take at least 300 men

THE POWER OF GOD'S MERCY SEAT

By
Have ever had to face the punishment for a disobedient act as a child?  When you knew that you really were in trouble with your parents or as we say in my place ( you have entered okro soup) you knew you were about  to face the repercussion of  your ill-behavior, it seems.. Inevitable!  Ever been there? The rod of correction was about to be administered, you were saying  your last prayers before the Big Bang!  And all of a sudden..  Mumy becomes silent,then takes a deep breath and says " get out of my sight,  you naughty...." without applying the judgement. Ever been  there? As a child,  I was there several times. Ah! What happened?  Mercy! Exodus 34:6 KJV And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord , The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, What is Mercy? Mercy is forgiveness, passion- it is, not giving us the punishment we deserve. Mercy is compassion shown to someone whom it is in ones power to harm or puni
