PROVOKING DIVINE FAVOUR


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: PROVOKING DIVINE FAVOUR

TEXT: EXODUS 3 : 21, EXODUS 12: 35 – 36

WHAT IS FAVOUR?
According to Merriam-webster on line dictionary favour can be defined as:

(a) Friendly regard shown towards another especially by a superior.
(b) Gracious kindness
(c) A special privilege or right granted or conceded
(d) Something done or granted out of goodwill, rather than from justice or for remuneration.
(e) Excessive kindness or unfair partiality or preferential treatment.

People often say Grace makes a man function without struggle while favour makes a man receive without asking. But one of the ways God shows His goodness to people is through divine favour.

This is exactly what Israelites experienced in Egypt according to our texts.

“And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians; and it shall come to pass but, when ye go, ye shall not go empty” Exodus 3 : 21

“And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians Jewels of silver, and jewels of gold and raiment: And the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians” Exodus 12 : 35 – 36

LET US PRAY
I PRONOUNCE GODS FAVOUR UPON YOU AS YOU GO OUT TO DAY, TO LOCATE YOU IN JESUS NAME,

GOOD MORNING BRETHREN
