Bible Reading: Luke 2:52
Memory Verse: For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly. Psalm 84:11 (ESV)
Some things are probably hard to believe perhaps because they are orchestrated by the invisible hands of God that holds the world. In a prophetic service on a particular day, a word of knowledge came out from the mouth of a prophet about an international door opening for someone. There was a teenage girl in the service with audacious faith who grabbed the prophecy hook, line and sinker; and began to work on it. Having secured her admission to study oversees, she told her Man of God to pray for her as she goes to the embassy for a visa interview.
The man of God who knew her financial capability asked her if she had paid her tuition fees. She said ‘No’, but she knows by the prophetic word she will be favoured. What a strange teenager. Off she went for visa interview. When asked for her supporting documents, she said, “There was a word of prophecy that I will travel abroad. When I get there, God will make a way”. The visa officer said, “What is the meaning of a word of prophecy?”. She further confused him saying it is similar to what is called, “A word of knowledge”. “What is the meaning of a word of knowledge?”, he asked. It is similar to what is called, “A prophetic utterance”, she replied. “What is a prophetic utterance?”, he further enquired. She answered, “A word uttered from the mouth of a Man of God laden with spiritual energy”. Still bewildered, he asked her, ” Who is this your man of God”. She mentioned the name of her Prophet. Now, absolutely confused he asked rhetorically, “You are a strange little fellow, ain’t you?” “I will give you the visa”.
Brethren, do everything possible to follow due process, but have it at the back of your mind that there is a God in heaven that can change protocols for your sake by the force of favour. We shall all get to a junction in life when the best of our efforts cannot give us what God has called ours, hence, you need a special commodity from heaven called favour. Mary asked, “How shall this thing be?” Favour qualifies the unqualified. Favour flavors. Favour magnetizes goodness. Favour overlooks your excesses or weaknesses. Favour is the flavour of life. When God favours you, what is meant to break you, will push you towards a breakthrough.

Prophetic Decree: Let every anti-favour emblem upon your forehead be washed off by the Blood of Jesus.
