viewers

favor determines the limits of

everyone’s destiny favor is like faith

it demands that God be your source and

your only source you can wear favor

people can see it only one encounter

with favor was worth a lifetime of labor

with favor you’re going to get

confidence with favor all you got to do

is know God

now I want you to get that Saints

because that is one of the biggest

difference between the world and the

church I said God will open up your door

that door can be locked and sealed for

years but when you stand in front of it

it will open up the favor of God is so

powerful till no harassment no weapon no

nothing because God has endorsed you

you’re going into a place now where God

is about to raise you up but I don’t

want you to compromise going up the

mountain come on I don’t want you to bow

to bail I want you to maintain your

stand

and the way you gonna do that is through

Sabre

we are talking about what this idea of

favor is how does favor operate and the

importance of favor in this in this hour

now the when you’re talking about favor

again we want to have this mindset of

the kingdom and a kingdom mindset is not

a religious mindset religion really

can’t deliver anybody it comes from the

Latin root religio which means back to

bondage and it when we’re talking about

the church we’re talking about life the

life that I’m talking about is Zoe it’s

a god kind of life if the life and the

nature that God imparts to us when we

get born again so why not you and I get

born again we now have taken on a whole

new status and we are exempt from some

things that would come that would hurt

you harass you molest you

we are exempt from that I think over in

Psalm 91

he says A Thousand shall fall at your

side ten thousand at your right hand but

it shall not come not you only with your

eyes show you behold to see the reward

of the wicked because you made the Lord

which is your refuge even the most high

your habitation there shall no evil

there’s another superlative

no evil that means not a little bit of

evil will befall you neither any plague

come not your dwelling for he shall give

his angels charge over you and they will

keep you in all your ways so right now

you got angels assigned so as we look at

this he’s talking about favor and I said

you have to have a kingdom mindset on

this because when you’re talking about

any of the promises of blessings of God

those things are activated by faith it

takes faith to active in faith comes how

by hearing and hearing by the Word of

God so I need to hear the word of God on

it so I’ll have faith to receive it into

my life say amen to that so today I’m

going to give you this word on favor

because it’s a part of the release that

you have and this one teaching is going

to change your life this one teaching is

going to be the thing that is going to

enable you to be able to be sure that

you make it to your destiny say amen to

that

favor means to endorse I’m endorsing

someone or maybe I endorse somebody’s

call me people call me it would you

endorse my book form so forth what do

they want they want somebody who perhaps

has done something or somebody that

established themselves or a brand or

something to endorse them to enable them

hopefully to sell more copies and people

to have for it to have credibility so

favor means to endorse it also means to

support support to be able to support

someone whether it be sports one in

terms of a tangible way or support

someone to encourage someone or whatever

to support it means also to assist to

assist the Bible talks about in Psalm

103 bless the Lord ye his angels verse

20 that excel in string

that do His commandments harkening into

the voice of the Lord that these angels

are coming the Bible says in Hebrew 1:14

to assist us their sign to assist us

over in in Exodus chapter 23 and verse

20 he told Moses Moses is about to go

into the promised land behold I send an

angel before you to keep you in the way

to bring you into the place what I have

prepared beware of him now obey his

voice don’t provoke him because you’ll

not pardon your transgressions for my

name is in it but if you shall indeed

obey his voice and do all I speak then

I’ll be an enemy to your enemies I’ll be

an adversary to your adversaries and for

my angels shall go before you and bring

you into the ammonites hittites

perizzites Canaanites highlights at

every sight and I’ll cut them off so you

need some assistance where you’re going

you need some assistance and could be

someone who is a person human assistance

or divine assistance and another thing

that favor is favor also makes things

easier makes things easier that’s that

anointing part of course you know the

anointing takes a struggle out of

everything it is it is it gives you

sweat less victories so it makes things

easier favorite also means to provide

with advantages over to God so God’s

going to provide you with advantages can

you imagine you’ve been in a class or

something like that you’re preparing for

the course in preparing for the final

exam and and then the teacher says you

know I really like you I’m going to give

you where some of these exam questions

are gonna come from so you can study

that and you can have a heads up on the

rest of the class you can rest the

classes that’s not fair yes it is fair

it’s called favor favor ain’t fair

so God can give you insight as to what’s

going to happen and so forth let’s all

put you ahead of the game well all

that’s a part of favor also it means to

show special privileges it show special

privileges and and to be able to

showcase someone or preview someone or

whatever have you pick you out in and so

forth or to feature someone so this idea

of favor again that comes from the

dictionary so these are ideas that you

can get in your mind so you can start

picturing what favor is now favor is a

part of your heritage when you get born

again look at Psalm chapter five please

all the way back and as you are born

again you’re born into favor you’re born

in to the house of God and favor is a

part of what you’ve been born into look

what it says here started verse eleven

but let all those that put their trust

in thee rejoice let them ever shout for

joy because thou Defenders them let them

also that love thy name be joyful in

thee for the Lord will bless the

righteous come on with favor will thou

compass’ him as with a shield so God’s

going to surround you with favor he’s

going to surround everywhere you go you

you’ll be having assistance you’ll

you’ll be featured come on out you you

came in late and got a front seat

whatever have you the favor of God are

you with me here now favor is something

that’s granted is not something for

payment you can’t work for it but it’s

something that is granted and if you

look in the scriptures a lot of times

when you’re talking about favor you’re

talking about something that God has

given to someone that causes them to be

successful where they normally would

fail or causes a door to open which

normally that door is locked

but favor will cause that to happen in

your life say amen to that so it starts

when you’re born again 1 you’ve got to

be taught about favor and you’ve using

your faith to activate favor in your

life and when that favor comes you will

know it because that favor will

distinguish you now as we look at this

also when you’re talking about favor

where do we see it start now look all

the way back here in the life of Noah

look back here in Genesis and chapter 6

please verse 5 he says this and God saw

that the wickedness of man was great in

the earth and that every imagination of

the thoughts of his heart was only evil

continually

and it repented the Lord that he had

made man on the earth and it grieved him

at his heart and the Lord said 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 so but Noah found what grace now

what does grace mean favor in the eyes

of the Lord now as you know here is God

and basically what he did with Noah is

he picked Noah out praise God

for whatever reason now he took Noah and

picked Noah out and others perished but

Noah and his family were spared

so favor will cause you to be spared

when other people

we’ll fall by the wayside so this is

favor

and then as you going down anybody that

you see god success in the Bible you

will track their lives and see that they

had favor attached to this whatever

success was in their lives now reason

why I’m telling you this is because

you’re understanding favor and relying

on and expecting God’s favor in your

life is key for you to be closer to God

favor is the way to the top tooth out

favor is the way to the top now let’s

let’s just look at this because if we

want to look at the reality of this

thing how many you know the devil does

not like you how many things he like it

– okay now he the enemy opposes you so

when you are sent into the earth and you

and I as the righteous are deliberately

planted among the wicked because we have

the light okay so in that the wicked

then many times being controlled by the

enemy their job is to keep you down to

frustrate you to harass you so forth and

so on but favor turns all of that

favor is the way to the top look what he

said over here over in Luke chapter four

and look at verse five he said the devil

taketh him Jesus up to a high mountain

and showed him all the kingdoms of the

world in a moment of time and the devil

said to him all this power will I give

you and the glory of them for that is

delivered unto me into whomsoever I will

give it if thou will worship me all

shall be thine and Jesus ended and said

to him get thee behind me Satan no let’s

stop right there here’s what I’m telling

you is that the idea is to occupy the

mountain the idea is to get and occupy

or control that sphere of influence same

into that and the thing of it is is all

the way up the mountain you cannot

compromise because whatever you

compromise going up the mountain will

control you at the top of the mountain

so now with favor you’re gonna get

confidence put it up there please put up

there proverbs 24 and verse 5 a wise man

is strong yay a man of knowledge

increases strength what are we giving

you today knowledge look at verse 10

please

out of that if thou faint in the day of

adversity come on thy strength is small

now so what did Daniel do they said

Daniel anybody caught praying to any

other God doing this 30-day period of

time other than this statute of whatever

or the king will be thrown in the den of

lions somebody tell me what did David

Daniel do

he went up in his room didn’t try to

hide open new windows Shanda

and they arrested it they put him in a

Lions in but guess what favor seek the

favor of God is so powerful until no

harassment no weapon no nothing that’s

that to become low mbers

because God has endorsed you

see this favor and and we got to show

you this cuz you’re going into a place

now where God’s about to raise you up

but I don’t want you to compromise going

up the mountain come on I don’t want you

to bow to bail I want you to maintain

your stand and the way you’re gonna do

that is through favor but the way you

get the favor the function is by faith

and the way you get faith is by hearing

so as I give you this today one lesson

is gonna turn you around one lesson

where you would have have been been weak

or faith in that day of adversity now

you all stand strong you all said no no

no I got favor of my life say amen to

that it may not look good right now but

I will keep my joy when his favor comes

on you you don’t have to tell a man

thank you

I better come over here when his favor

comes on you you know oh thank you to a

man

come on up here let’s go with this again

and Joseph was brought down to Egypt

Potiphar and office of Pharaoh captain

the guard and Egyptian bought him of the

hands of the instrument lights which had

brought him down hit now what happened

Joseph was sold by his brothers as you

know to a traveling band of Ishmaelites

some business people and the Lord was

with Joseph and he was a prosperous man

he was in the house of his master the

Egyptian and his master saw that the

Lord was with him and that the Lord made

all that he did to prosper in his hand

and Joseph found what Brinks what’s the

name for it favor in his sight

and he served him and he made him what

overseer over his house come on all that

he had he put into his hand favored the

way to the top the way to the top say

amen to that I’ve had people come up

here before us a pastor you know they’ve

been passing over me for this promotion

and so forth and so on you know and and

what they want well I would you well I

need them to cut me a little slack no

you don’t you need finger call this

favor they don’t have to cut you no

slack come on

God’s gonna cut you some slack

see if God says promote you

there’s not a single person that can

stop your promotion there’s not a

government there’s not a demon

and it came to pass from that time the

time that he had made him over Silva’s

house nor that he had that the Lord

blessed the Egyptians house for Joseph’s

sake and the blessing of the Lord was on

upon all that he had in house and in the

field and he left all that he had in

Joseph’s hand and he knew not all he had

saved the bread which he did eat and

Joseph was a goodly person and what

well-favored Samwell favored he going

and it came to pass after these things

that his master’s wife cast her eyes

upon Joseph and she said lie with me o

and flow ok and and he refused and said

to his master’s wife behold my master

what is not what is with me in the house

and he couldn’t committed all that he

had then to my hand there is none

greater in the house and I neither had

he kept back anything from me but thee

because thou art his wife how then can I

do this great wickedness and sin against

God and it came to pass as she spake to

Joseph day by day that he hearkened not

to her to live by her or to be with her

come on and it came to pass about this

time that Joseph went into the house to

his to do with business and there was

none in the of the men in the house

there within and she caught him by His

garment saying lie with me at this woman

is desperate war

and he left his garment and in her hand

and fled and got him out know her mercy

and it came to pass when she saw that he

had left his garment in her hand and was

fled forth that she called into the men

of the house and spake unto them saying

see he had brought in a Hebrew unto us

to mock us and he came in to me to lie

with me and I cried with a loud voice

and it came to pass when he heard that I

lifted up my voice and cried that he

left his garment with me and fled and

got him out now that you can wear a

your heritage when you get born again

Psalm five and verse 12 says for the

Lord will bless the righteous with favor

will thou compassed them as with a

shield in other words favor is going to

circle you around I mean it’s going to

cover you all the time now notice what

it says this is the righteous he’s

talking about righteous comes when

you’re born again you have to be born

again to get this heritage of favor so

if you’re not born again you can be born

again right now praise God

I remember my life years ago I’d gone to

church as a you know young lad and so

forth growing up in the city my hometown

Tuskegee Alabama but I really wasn’t

born again I knew about church knew

about God but it didn’t know him for

myself but I got much older of course

things changed and I reached out and God

saved me and next thing you know I had a

relationship with Jesus everything

changed in my life favor took off praise

God well the same thing had happened to

you and God wants you to be born again

he wants to encircle you with a favor

that he has reserved for your life so if

you want to be born again if you’d like

to be it’s very very simple the Bible

says in Romans chapter chapter 10 and

verse 9 if thou shalt confess with our

mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in

thine heart that God has raised him from

the dead you shall be saved well here’s

what I want to do for you I’d like to do

for you the same as they did for me

years ago somebody prayed this prayer

with me and a miracle took place in my

life

I would like to do the same for you

right now right where you are

so if you know that there’s something

missing you know that you don’t have a

relationship with the Lord oh you might

have been in church but that is no real

thing you got to have your personal

relationship with him and if you sent in

your heart you don’t have this let me

pray for you right now here’s what I

want you to do very simple thing just

bow your head and pray this prayer with

me

dear lord I come to you now just as I am

you know my life you know how I’ve lived

forgive me lord I repent of my sins I

believe Jesus Christ is the son of God

he died for my sins

and on the third day he was raised from

the dead Lord Jesus I ask you come into

my heart live your life in me and

through me from now on from this day

forward I belong to you in the name of

Jesus amen praise God well if you pray

that I’d like to give you send you up my

personal book I wrote it for you

I wrote it with you in mind it’s called

born again it’s spirit-filled it’s in

both English and Spanish these tell you

what the next steps are by you walking

in faith and in a born-again life this

is powerful here it gives you those

steps and you can follow those steps and

watch what’s going to happen to your

life well this is bill Winston saying we

love you and until next time keep
