Spirituality: Favor With God Part 2

"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".

Favor With God Is The Purpose and Goal Of Spirituality

2 Corinthians 5:19

It was God (personally present) in Christ, reconciling and
restoring the world to favor with Himself, not counting up and
holding against [men] their trespasses [but cancelling them];
and committing to us the message of reconciliation -- of the
restoration to favor.

Amplified




What glorious creatures we were intended to be and what we have become is to be lamented. We were not created to hate, yet hate abounds in multiple forms. We were not created to envy, yet jealousies and competitions motivate almost our every desire. God did lament our sad condition and took the loving initiative to do something about it. If you cannot handle the terms salvation, savior, deliverance, deliverer, Jesus, Satan, God and man, perhaps you can handle the term "Spirituality". Our spirituality is the bottom line of every moment that we breathe.

The God-Connection (Favor With God In Prayer)

Remember that the purpose of this blog is to teach you how to connect with God (PRAYER) and develop friendship with Him (FAVOR).

To have favor with God in prayer means that when you seek to enter the spirit-world and tap the powers of it, He listens to you where He does not listen to someone else. In other words, you can connect! This is a great advantage in the spirit-world. Knowing that God's ear is always tuned to the frequency of your heart will get you results without you uttering a single syllable! It means God will turn earthly circumstances in your favor that you have not even talked to Him about! He just knows that you need it or want it, so He does it. It is a great feeling to have "friendship" with God and measurable by things He does that you thought about, but did not ask.


Matthew 6:8

"... for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. "



Isaiah 65:24

"And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear."

Friendship With God In The Daily Events Of Life

Job Chapter One


8

And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?

9

Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?

10

Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

The normal life is a life in friendship with God and the above bold-faced scripture is what it looks like. It is not normal for a person in friendship with God to experience sickness, disease, poverty, devastation, unemployment. Many christians who are NOT walking in friendship with God anymore, but ARE REGULARLY ATTENDING CHURCH can tell you about the time in their life when everything they touched seemed to flourish. Everything they needed was full and almost everything they wanted they had.



The absence of this kind of evidence that God is with you is why people remark that God has forsaken you or that you have left God!

Isaiah Chapter 62


1

For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth.

2

And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.

3

Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.

4

Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married.


12

And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken.

Jesus said, those who do not have relationship with God strive to obtain that kind of life. Those who do have relationship with God don't have to strive, your mind can be occupied with more important things -- connecting people with God and helping them develop their friendship with Him in the spirit-world.

Matthew Chapter 6


30

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

31

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

32

(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

33

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Times of suffering from the Evil one interrupt this normal life, as with Job. Remember that Job suffered these temporary embarassments because the Evil one hated Job's friendship with God! Participating with the Evil one in his spiritual power also interrupts this normal life. Either way, we all long to get back to that type of normal life. This is why Jesus is called the REDEEMER. He is the power to bring back your life from whatever abnormalities the Evil one has put on you for whatever reason!
