Priscilla Shirer: Invite the Favor of God into Your Life | Praise on TBN

Priscilla Shirer speaks at the Propel Women’s Conference to discuss how often we are scheduling sin into our lives. Listen as she teaches that it’s not enough to simply show up to church on Sundays, and that we should aim to invite the favor of God into our lives as we strive to be more like Him.

going to church is good but it’s not

enough

doing your bible study oh it’s great but

it’s not enough

if you want god’s presence on you

marking you

making you distinct and different from

the people around you

then you got to walk in a manner worthy

of the lord

there is one thing that attracts the

presence

of god to rest on our lives

and it is holiness

plain old flat out

old school holiness

i implore you sisters by the mercies of

god

to walk in a manner worthy of the

calling by which you have been called

that if you come if i come into this

room and we celebrate till we are blue

in the face and we wave our hands and we

read

the scriptures and we worship but we

walk out of here and we live

in a way that is incongruent with

everything that we’ve heard here today

if we do not choose to walk in a way

that honors god we will have wasted the

time that we have spent

here and if there is something

that breaks my heart for my own

generation and the generation coming up

after me

is that social media has made it so that

we are more interested

in impressing people than

walking holy before our god

we are more interested in being

perfectly lit

than we are in making sure that we’re

laying up treasures for ourselves in

heaven

lord help us when because of our hubris

because of our arrogance

because of our pride we are more

interested

in receiving the applause of people than

we are

of making sure that we will receive the

applause of heaven

but a day is coming y’all sooner than we

think we’re going to look our savior in

his face

where we’re going to see him face to

face and when we see him

he will not ask me how many instagram

followers i had

he will not wonder how many people liked

my message

on twitter what he’ll ask me is number

one did i have a relationship with his

son jesus

and then i will give an account

you will give an account

and i don’t know about y’all but when i

give an account i’m looking for

a well done

not because i necessarily please people

but because he is pleased with my life

and the one thing that invites the favor

of god on our life like simeon

that will open our eyes to see him more

clearly so that we don’t miss him when

he comes

into our circumstances trying to speak

to us

to answer us to make himself a parent in

our lives

the one thing that opens up our eyes is

god’s spirit on us

and if you want if i want god’s spirit

on our lives then we got to decide

to live holy

i implore you by the mercies of god to

lay aside

every sin every hindrance anything

that is keeping you entangled so that

you cannot run

with endurance the race that is set

before you

any relationship severe it at the past

so that you can walk holy sister

any addiction any habit any lifestyle

choice that is keeping you from being

free

and walking in victory in jesus name let

it go

by the power of the holy spirit so that

he can rest

on your life going to church is good but

it’s not enough

do in your bible study oh it’s great but

it’s not enough

if you want god’s presence on you

marking you

making you distinct and different from

the people around you

then you’ve got to walk in a manner

worthy of the lord

be ye holy

it’s not perfection it is a call to

yield to the power of the holy spirit in

you

so that you do not give way to all the

desires of your flesh

what it means is that you have not

chosen as a lifestyle

an attitude or an action that you

already know

is displeasing to god you know up front

that you’ve already got on your calendar

after this is over

a place you’re going or a person you’re

seeing that you know you don’t have busy

any business

being in relationship with but you’ve

already scheduled sin into your calendar

i’m saying walk away from everything

that is keeping you from having the

biggest

most amazing blessing you can have on

your life and that is god’s presence

marking you all up on you setting you

apart girl for his purposes

and with his power evident through your

life if you were in this room

and you are in chains in some area of

your life where you’ve

tried the 12-step program you’ve tried

to walk away from that illegitimate

relationship you’ve tried

to not live this lifestyle because you

know that it is out of alignment with

the truth of god but

everything you’ve tried and your own

power has not set you free so that you

can

walk in holiness and have god’s presence

resting on your life i believe that

before this day

is over those chains can fall off of

your life

that you can decide that i’m going to

live holy so that i can have god’s favor

like simeon

so that my eyes can be opened because i

want to see

my god i want to hear his voice i want

to have an experience and an encounter

with him

if you are in this room

and you know you’re not walking in

holiness

you know there is an area of your life

whether in attitude

or an action i mean god’s asked you to

forgive that person and you have dug

your heels in the ground

you have refused to forgive

or in your actions where you were

literally doing something participating

in something engaging in something

and you’ve dug your heels into the

ground you’ve ignored the little pricks

of the holy spirit asking you to walk

away from that

or to participate in that you’ve you’ve

ignored it

and you know you are not living holy

before the lord

and you want to get that strike today so

that we can all be women who

honor god in our attitudes and in our

actions and invite the favor of god on

our lives listen

if you are in this room and you know

holiness is the call that god has given

to you this morning

would you please right now in this holy

space just rise to your feet if that’s

you

if you need freedom in a specific area

of your life we’re gonna walk out of

here a holy band of women

who want god’s favor on us
