Power for your destiny 5


“And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.” Acts 7:10

Another power that your destiny needs is the favor of God and men. Favor is also a product of God’s blessings upon a man. There are two kinds of favor. Merited favour and unmerited favour. Merited favour depends on what you do and it is motivated by the use of your knowledge, skills, being useful or in demand for a solution or for an assignment (Prov 22:29). Unmerited favour on the other hand does not depend on what you do or don’t do, it is God’s prerogative (Romans 9:15) although it can be motivated by obedience to God.

“Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.” Proverbs 22:29
“For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.” Romans 9:15

It is important to have a relationship with God through His only begotten son Jesus. This gives a man access to the family of God where grace and favour are multiplied. It is also important to be skillful at what you do. In your chosen profession, be your best and be diligent.

May you have favour with God and with men in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: I receive power to fulfill my destiny in Jesus name.
