Spirituality: Favor With God Part 1
"All of us, at some point, need a miracle! That is when you really begin to appreciate and wish for MORE spirituality -- the power to, legally, tap into another dimension and alter the natural course of earthly events".
Today's post is the reason for why this Spirituality Blog exists. At the top of this page you see a concise statement of the purpose of this publishing:" Spirituality blog. Teaching how to connect with and develop measurable friendship with God. Intended to form a community of spiritual persons with power to reduce evil in this world."
Developing more than a casual and routine worship of God is imperative. In times when you need a miracle, it is wise to make sure that God knows you, that you are not just a number in some church routine. It will be easier for you to believe that he hears you and wants to answer you. He will do a miracle for you even if you have absolutely no developed friendship with Him.Favor With God is Friendship
For ongoing, daily life, however -- God is a person who has feelings as you do. You do things for your friends just because you like them and care about them. No money is involved no 'favor' is owed. The word favor in the spirit-world is different from how we apply it down hear in the earthly. Favor in the spirit-world does not mean doing something for someone of obligation and pay-back. Favor with God means a relationship so close that he is always looking out for your well-being on a daily and hourly basis ... to undo any work of the Evil one against you OR anything that pertains to you!
You will remember from the previous blogs about relationship that a friend is someone who 'has your back' in God's plans and purposes for your life. Favor with God is just such a relationship -- it is a FRIENDSHIP.
- The Spirituality Blog is determined to teach you how to connect with God and develop intimate, measurable friendship with Him because living in this earth surrounded by the hostile powers of the Evil one (Satan) YOU WILL NEED FAVOR!
In earth's hostile environment, you will need someone to do things for you without money or price or earning it! You will need someone to be guarding things pertaining to you even when you aren't. People are so cold. You will need someone committed to your welfare and well-being when no one cares what happens to you!
Isaiah 55:1
" Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. "

John Chapter 6
6:45
It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.
Jhn 6:46
Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
Jhn 6:47
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
Jhn 6:48
I am that bread of life.
Jhn 6:49
Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
Jhn 6:50
This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

From these two passages (and there are many others), notice the tone in Christ's voice. Jesus is the only legal entry into the spirit-world and as the only authorized authority He tells you that God wants 'friendship' with you. Friendship is much more than donations to your favorite ministry, social or political cause that expresses your christian views. Friendship is much more than showing up, regularly, for church meetings and serving on committees.
Friendship is taking the time to get to know what a person thinks, feels, likes, dislikes, hates, wants, needs all to help them fulfill God's dream.
Pursue hard after this kind of friendship with God starting today. It is the only thing that will give you a constant 'power' and 'presence' always with you and undoing evil that comes against you. It is the only thing that will count in your last days on earth.
It is, without controversy, the most important benefit you can get for yourself in your entire lifetime. It is the benefit that no one can take from you if you don't pay the premium for there is no premium. It is the benefit that lasts a lifetime, then outlasts your lifetime! It is the one benefit that everyone can afford -- without money and without price!
We will discuss more on Spirituality: Favor With God Part 2, tomorrow, God willing.
