SEEDS OF DESTINY BY DR PAUL ENENCHE 12TH DEC 2015

TOPIC: AUTHORITY AND THE FAVOR OF GOD

SCRIPTURE: ‘And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art: Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.’ – Genesis 41:39-43

 

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Disfavour exists where mediocrity rules.

 

It has been confirmed that authority attracts favour into the life of a person. A man or woman in authority is effortlessly a candidate for unusual flow of favour. I believe you must have heard the popular saying, “Success has many friends and many fathers but failure is an orphan.” The meaning of that is, people will like to identify with the man or woman who is successful, excellent and outstanding in life. But if a person is a failure, then his life is grounded as people will hardly like to identify with a failure. 

 

Authority provokes favour. Joseph for instance was an authority in dream interpretation and that authority gave him favour with Pharaoh and took him to the palace. He obtained favour and got to the palace because he was an authority in the realm – dream interpretation.

On the other hand, disfavour exists where mediocrity rules. When a man lives a life of mediocrity, he cannot escape disfavour. You see, when people live average lives, they are disqualified from favour. When people are not outstanding in any way or live a life devoid of excellence, they attract disfavour into their lives. When people are not in the front and are not pressing to be outstanding in life, they cannot escape disfavour. That will not be your portion in Jesus’ Name.  

 

Remember this: Disfavour exists where mediocrity rules.

 

ASSIGNMENT(S):

1. Attack every form of disfavour in your life.

2. Make up your mind to excel in all that you do in order to attract favour.

 

PRAYER: O LORD, deal with every form of disfavour in my life. Let the spirit of excellence rest on me, LORD, in Jesus’ Name.
