00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Joeln Victoria. Thanks for listening to our

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry. If you enjoy

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 1: today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share

4
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: it with a friend, reappreciate you and pray for God's

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: very best in your life. Well, God bless you. It's

6
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 1: a joy to come into your homes and if you're

7
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 1: ever in our area, please stop by and be a

8
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 1: part of one of our services. I promise you we

9
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 1: will make you feel right at home. I like to

10
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: start with something funny, and I heard about this wealthy man.

11
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: He was known for being eccentric. He was having a

12
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: big party at his house. In his backyard, he had

13
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 1: this huge swimming pool filled with sharks and alligators. He

14
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: announced to the guest, anyone that will swim across my pool,

15
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 1: I'll give you anything you want. In a few minutes,

16
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 1: there was a big splash. This man was in there

17
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: going ninety to nothing, dodging sharks, maneuvering around alligators, made

18
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: it to the other side just in the nick of time.

19
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: The owner said, Wow, you're the bravest man I've ever met. Now,

20
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: what do you want me to give you? The man said,

21
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: what I want more than anything else. Is the name

22
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: of the person that just pushed me in. Say it

23
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am

24
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: what it says I am. I have what it says

25
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: I have. I can do what it says I can do.

26
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: Today I will be taught the word of God. I

27
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:25,919
Speaker 1: boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is receptive.

28
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God

29
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: bless you. I want to talk to you today about

30
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: declaring favor. One way our faith is released is through

31
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: our words, and there is a connection between speaking favor

32
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 1: and receiving favor. It's not enough to just believe you

33
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: have favor. It's not enough to just expect favor. You

34
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: have to take it one step further and declare favor.

35
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: Every day you should declare I have the favor of God.

36
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: Favor is on my family, favor is on my health,

37
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: favor is on my business, favor is on my finances.

38
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: When you speak something out, you give it the right

39
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: to come to past. When you face difficult situations, instead

40
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: of being discouraged thinking why did this happen, you need

41
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: to declare the favor of God is turning this around.

42
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: Favor is bringing healing, freedom, vindication, victory into my life.

43
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: It's one thing to think it, but when you declare it,

44
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: angels go to work. In the unseen realm, things begin

45
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: to change. We prayed, we believed, we've hoped. That's good,

46
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 1: but it's time to start speaking favor. Speak favor over

47
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: your finances. Father, Thank you that your favor is bringing

48
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: me clients. Thank you that your favor is causing me

49
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: to stand out. Thank you that what I touch will

50
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: prosper and succeed. The scripture says Jesus increased in favor

51
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: with God and with people. You can increase in favor.

52
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: The more you thank God for it, the more you

53
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 1: declare it, the more favor you're going to see. Joey,

54
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: you say I have favor, but I never get good breaks.

55
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: I never see anything unusual. Maybe it's because you're not

56
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: declaring it. Why don't you step it up a notch

57
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: all through the day, Father, thank you that your favor

58
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: is endorsing me. Thank you that your favor is bringing

59
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: me into prominence. Thank you that favor is taking me

60
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: to new levels. That's not just being positive, that's releasing

61
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: your faith for the favor. Of God. There were five

62
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: of us children growing up. We never left a house

63
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: without my mother saying, Father, thank you that my children

64
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: have your favor. Work for all of us except my

65
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: brother Paul. Four out of five is not bad. But

66
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: it's good to pray over your children. Ask God to

67
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: protect them, guide them, give them wisdom. But don't stop there.

68
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: Speak favor over them father, Thinking that my children have

69
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: favor with their teachers, favor with other students, favor that

70
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: causes them to excel. David did this. He said, surely,

71
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of

72
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: my life. The word goodness, in one translation is favor.

73
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: He was saying, surely, favor follows me all of my life.

74
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: In effect, he was saying, Favor is keeping enemies from

75
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: defeating me. Favor is making me attractive, Favor is bringing

76
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: promotion and opportunity. He didn't just think about it. He

77
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 1: didn't just hope it would work out. He spoke favor

78
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 1: over his life. No wonder, the prophet Samuel came to

79
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: him and annointed him the next king. No wonder, he

80
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,559
Speaker 1: defeated a giant twice his size. No wonder, King Saul

81
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 1: couldn't kill him. When you're constantly talking about the favor

82
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 1: of God, bragging on his goodnes goodness, you will go

83
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: places you couldn't go on your own. You will overcome

84
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: obstacles that seem impossible. Maybe you've been single for a

85
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: long time. You don't think you'll ever meet the right person.

86
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,239
Speaker 1: Start declaring. The favor of God is bringing someone awesome

87
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: into my life. Favor is making me attractive. Favor is

88
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: putting me at the right place at the right time.

89
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: If you're struggling in your finances, instead of complaining, the

90
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: favor of God is bringing increase in promotion. Favor is

91
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: opening doors that I can't open. Favor is causing good

92
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: breaks to come to me. Or the medical report doesn't

93
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: look good, you could just pray about it, hope you

94
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:47,239
Speaker 1: get better. Start declaring. The favor of God is bringing healing.

95
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: The favor of God is causing me to recover. The

96
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: Favor of God is helping me to defy the odds

97
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: with long life. God will satisfy me. Ever since I've

98
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: started ministering, I've said, Father, thank you that your favor

99
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 1: causes me to stand out that when people turn me on,

100
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: they can't turn me off. Every week somebody tells me

101
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: I was flipping through the channels. I don't like TV ministers,

102
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: I never watched them. But Joel, I turned you on

103
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: and I couldn't turn you off. I know that wasn't

104
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: a coincidence. It wouldn't have happened if I had not

105
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: declared favor the dreams God has put in your heart.

106
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: You need to speak favor over them. Problems that look impossible,

107
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 1: declare the favor of God is turning them around. Niemiah

108
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: in the scripture, had a dream to rebuild the walls

109
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: around Jerusalem. They were torn down and the people were

110
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: there unprotected. This seemed impossible. Neemiah was living a thousand

111
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: miles away, working as a cupbearer to the king. He

112
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: didn't have the influence, the connections, the resources, the funding.

113
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: But when God gives you a dream, he lines up

114
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: everything you need. His favor will cause it to all

115
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: come together. The question is are you going to activate

116
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: this favor. Neemiah wasn't a cabinet member, he wasn't on

117
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: the king's executive staff. He was working in the kitchen,

118
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: but he understood this principle. The favor on his life

119
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,119
Speaker 1: would help him accomplish dreams he couldn't accomplish on his own.

120
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: He asked the king for permission to return to Jerusalem

121
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: to work on the project. For some reason, the king

122
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: liked him. Didn't make sense to let him off that long,

123
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: but the king said yes. Neamiah said, I'm going to

124
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: need protection. Will you give me a letter addressed to

125
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: all the leaders in the cities I'm traveling through, telling

126
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: them who I am. The king agreed. Neamiah didn't stop there.

127
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: He said one more thing, King, I don't have any

128
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: supplies to rebuild the wall. I don't have any money.

129
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: I need a letter from you asking the people that

130
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: own the lumber mills and the stone factories to give

131
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: me the materials that I need. When you know you

132
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: have favor, you'll have a boldness, a confidence to ask big,

133
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: to expect advantages. Again, the king said yes. In Neemiah too,

134
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: he said, the King granted me these requests because the

135
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: gracious hand of God was upon me. He was saying,

136
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: I know why all this happened. The favor of God

137
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: is on my life. When you see God's favor, always

138
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: take time to thank him, take a moment to say, Lord,

139
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: I recognize this was your goodness. Thank you for favoring me.

140
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: Thank you for making things happen that I couldn't make happen.

141
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: Neemiah started on the wall, and he had all kinds

142
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: of opposition, but every time the favor of God helped

143
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: him to overcome. It. Should have taken him more than

144
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: a year to rebuild it, but he did it in

145
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: just fifty two days. God's favor will accelerate things. So

146
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 1: now going to take as long as you think to

147
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: accomplish your dreams, to recover from the illness, to pay

148
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: your house off. The favor on your life is speeding

149
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: things up. Neebiah said in verse eighteen, I told all

150
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: the people how the gracious hand of God was on

151
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 1: my life. He was constantly bragging on God's goodness, constantly

152
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 1: talking about his favor. When you face situations that seem impossible,

153
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: don't talk about how big the problem is. Do like

154
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: Nehemiah and start declaring, the gracious hand of God is

155
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: on my life. Well, your child is off course, yes,

156
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: but the favor of God is bringing him back. You

157
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: can't start your business, you don't have the connections, yes,

158
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: but I have an advantage. The favor of God is

159
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: bringing the right people. Well, the medical report says you're done. Yes,

160
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: but I have another report. It says I will live

161
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: and not die. Father, thank you that your gracious hand

162
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: is on me. Think you that your favor is doing

163
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: what medicine cannot do. Well, Juel, I tried this for

164
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: two weeks and nothing happened. This needs to be a

165
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 1: way of life where every day, whether it's sunny or rainy,

166
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: whether you're on the mountaintop or in the valley, you

167
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: get up in the morning and say I have the

168
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: favor of God. That's not just to remind yourself, not

169
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: just to show God that you're trusting him, but you're

170
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: showing the enemy who you belong to. And the scripture

171
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: says if you will acknowledge God in all your ways,

172
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: he will crown your efforts with success. One way to

173
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: acknowledge God is all through the day, under your breath,

174
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: declare his favor before you make that presentation at work, Father,

175
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: thank you, I have favor with these people going to

176
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: the mall. Lord, thank you that your favor will help

177
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: me find what I need. The favor of God will

178
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: help you get the best deals. Favor will put you

179
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: at the right place at the right time you pull

180
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 1: into a crowded parking lot, right when you drive in

181
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: that car backs out, you get that upfront spot. That

182
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: wasn't a lucky break. That was the favor on your life.

183
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: Years ago, I promised our daughter Alexandra that I would

184
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 1: get her a cell phone. The next day she came running, Dad,

185
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: can we go to the store And I said yes.

186
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: Jonathan heard we were going, he wanted to come. Said

187
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: that's great, Jonatha. We love to have you, but you

188
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: already have a cell phone. He said, I know, Dad,

189
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: I just want to look. When Victoria heard that we

190
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: were all going, she decided to come along as well.

191
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: Turned into a family affair. Drive into the store under

192
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: my breath, just out of habit, I said, Lord, thank

193
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: you for your favor, thank you that you'll help us

194
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: find what we need. We walked in the store, men

195
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: came out to wait on us, showed us some phones.

196
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: Alexandra found the one that she wanted. We were about

197
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: to check out. Jonathan came up and said, Dad, I

198
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: really want the newer version of my phone. Well his

199
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: was not even a year old, practically brand new, and

200
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,839
Speaker 1: I didn't really want to do that. The salesman asked

201
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 1: to see my phone. He typed something in the computer

202
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: and said, you're due for an upgrade at no charge.

203
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: I said, well, great, give Jonathan the new phone and

204
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: I'll take his. His was like new to me. We

205
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 1: were about to leave. The salesman said to Victoria, what

206
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: kind of phone do you have? She showed him. He said,

207
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: you need a new phone. He checked the computer. She

208
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: wasn't due for several years. I thanked them for checking

209
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: for all their help. As we were walking out, the manager,

210
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 1: another man said, wait a minute, she's not leaving without

211
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 1: a new phone. The salesman looked at the manager, like,

212
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: what do you mean? What do you want me to do?

213
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: He said, just give her a phone. His eyes got

214
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: this big. He said, you mean like give her like free,

215
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: like not charge her. The manager said, yes, give her

216
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: any phone she wants. We went in there to get

217
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: one phone. We walked out with four, but we only

218
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,199
Speaker 1: paid for one. You may think that was good luck.

219
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: I know that's the favor of God. Driving home, I

220
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: reached my hand back to my children and said, come on,

221
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: get some of this favor off of me. I can't

222
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: stand it all. When you not only recognize you have favor.

223
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 1: But you declare favor, God will show out in your life.

224
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: You will see things that you don't deserve. If you're

225
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: in real estate, Father, thank you that your favor is

226
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: causing my properties to sell. Thank you that favor is

227
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: bringing the right buyers. Before you take the exam at school, Father,

228
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: think you that favor is causing me to excel where

229
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: you meet with those new clients. Lord, think you that

230
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: your favor is making me attractive? Well, Joel, God's got

231
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: bigger things to deal with than me getting a cell

232
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: phone or finding a good parking spot. Can I tell

233
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: you are God's biggest deal. You are the apple of

234
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: his eye. He wants to show you his goodness. That's

235
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: what favor is. Zachariah said, ask for rain in the

236
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: time of rain. Rain in the scripture represents favor. This

237
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: seems odd. If it's raining, why do you need to

238
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: ask for rain? God was saying, just because my favor

239
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: is available, you're not going to experience it unless you

240
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: call for it, unless you declare it, you may not

241
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: be able to see it. But right now it's raining.

242
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 1: It's raining, healing, raining, freedom, raining, promotion, raining, spouses, raining,

243
00:14:55,120 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: good breaks, reigning, abundance. God is showering his favor like before.

244
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: My challenge is, don't let it pass you by. Don't

245
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: go around just hoping believing. The way you get in

246
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: the rain is by declaring favor. Father, Thank you that

247
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: your favor is opening doors no man can shut. Thank

248
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: you that your favor is bringing good breaks, advantages, preferential treatment. Lord.

249
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: Think you that favor is defeating enemies, turning negative situations around,

250
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 1: breaking forces that are trying to stop me. Every time

251
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: you declare favor, you're asking for the rain. That's what

252
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: allows God to show out in your life. I have

253
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: these friends. Their son played on a minor league baseball team.

254
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: His dream, of course, was to make it to the

255
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: big leagues. He's extremely talented, led the division in hitting

256
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 1: for several years, but it seemed like every time he

257
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 1: was about to get promoted to the big leagues, something

258
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: would come up. He would get passed over. His parents

259
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: told me again and again how he was leading the

260
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 1: league in home runs, how he was having a banner year,

261
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: but for some reason he would get overlooked. They could

262
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 1: have been discouraged, thought it's not meant to be, but

263
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: they did. What I'm asking you to do. They kept

264
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: declaring the favor of God Father. Thank you that your

265
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: favor is on our son. Thank you that favor is

266
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: putting him at the right place. Thank you that your

267
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: favor is causing him to stand out. The team he

268
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: played for had a star player in the major leagues

269
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: in his same position. It looked like that player would

270
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: be there for years. But one day, unexpectedly, the star

271
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: player requested a trade. He was sent to another team.

272
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 1: This young man was suddenly promoted to the big leagues.

273
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: He went on to live out his dream of playing

274
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: Major League baseball. When you declare God's favor, he will

275
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: move people out of the way to make room for you.

276
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: Favor will promote you suddenly, unexpectedly, things that you didn't

277
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 1: see coming. You may not see how you can accomplish

278
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 1: a dream, or how you'll get well. Doesn't look like

279
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: it's ever going to change. I have good news. It's raining.

280
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: If you'll do your part and keep declaring God's favor.

281
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: Life with my friend, God is going to do something unusual,

282
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: something that you weren't expecting, where suddenly you're promoted, suddenly

283
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: you get well, or suddenly you meet the right person.

284
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: When we acquired this building. We hired architects to draw

285
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,199
Speaker 1: plans to see what it would take to renovate it.

286
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,399
Speaker 1: We had to build our own power plant plus an

287
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: additional five story building. The cost came right at one

288
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 1: hundred million dollars. We didn't have those kinds of funds,

289
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: so we met with our bank to see what they

290
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: would loan us. We had known these bankers for years,

291
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: way back with my father. They knew the church's finances

292
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 1: and how strong the ministry is and the potential for growth.

293
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: We met and they were very nice, but they were

294
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 1: as negative as can be. They told me all the

295
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 1: reasons why it wasn't going to work out, how they

296
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: could never take that kind of risk of loaning us

297
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 1: that money, how every bank was going to say no,

298
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: on and on. I left there so discouraged. I was young.

299
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: I didn't know any better. I've learned since people don't

300
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: have the final say. People don't control your destiny. People

301
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: can't see the favor on your life. They don't know

302
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: what God is about to do. Don't let them talk

303
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: you out of your dreams. Don't let people convince you

304
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: that you can't get well. You'll never afford a nice house.

305
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: You'll never break the addiction. They're looking at the natural.

306
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: We serve a supernatural God. One touch of his favor

307
00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: will catapult you ahead. They may be negative, discouraging, condescending.

308
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 1: Let it go in one ear and out the other.

309
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: None of that can stop your purpose. The favor on

310
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: your life will defy the odds. Favor will take you

311
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: where you don't have the qualifications on paper. It may

312
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 1: not make sense. Don't worry. God knows what he's doing.

313
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 1: I woke up the next morning with a fire in

314
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: my spirit. Something on the inside said, Joel, God didn't

315
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: bring you this far to leave you where you are.

316
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: He didn't move the rockets out of that building, caused

317
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: the mayor to be good to you, change city council members,

318
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: mind bring you through a lawsuit so you could get

319
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,959
Speaker 1: stuck where you are. I realized the favor of God

320
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: had brought us that far, and the favor of God

321
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 1: was going to keep us going. Instead of being discouraged

322
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 1: thinking look how big these obstacles are, my attitude was,

323
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 1: look how big my God is. Think you that your

324
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: favor is bringing the right people, people that will get

325
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: behind the vision. Think you that your favor is making

326
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: a way where I don't see away. We decided to

327
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: try another bank. We had never met these people, never

328
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: had any contact, but when we walked in it was

329
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: night and day difference from the very beginning. They were

330
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 1: for us. They had a letter on the table offering

331
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 1: us a loan in the mount three times what the

332
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 1: other bank said. We had never gat They hadn't even

333
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 1: seen our finances, They never looked at our books. When

334
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: I saw they would loan us that much, I said,

335
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,239
Speaker 1: how about loaning us the whole amount so we can

336
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: do it all. They said, that won't be a problem.

337
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 1: We'll make that happen. God has these divine connections lined

338
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,719
Speaker 1: up for you, people that will be behind your vision,

339
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: people that were before you, not people that you have

340
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,080
Speaker 1: to convince. You may not have seen them yet, but

341
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,120
Speaker 1: they are in your future. God has already ordained them

342
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: to help you. The favor on your life is going

343
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 1: to close the wrong doors, but open the right doors. Joel,

344
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,640
Speaker 1: I've been declaring favor, but I don't see anything happening.

345
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 1: Doesn't look like it's ever going to change. First, Peter says,

346
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,959
Speaker 1: hope to the end. For the divine favor that is coming.

347
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 1: You may not have seen it yet, but favor is

348
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 1: on the way. Healing is on the way, promotion is

349
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: on the way. The right people, they're on the way.

350
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 1: I met a man a few years ago that was

351
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 1: so discouraged. At one time, his company was very successful.

352
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: He's in the design and graphics industry. But over the

353
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: last couple of years his business had gone down. He

354
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 1: lost all of his major clients. It looked like bankruptcy

355
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 1: was inevitable. He went on and on telling me about

356
00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: the problem, going into great detail of explaining all the

357
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: setbacks he had suffered and how unfair it was. I

358
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: finally had to interrupt him and say, we've talked long

359
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 1: enough about the problem. Let's start talking about the solution.

360
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: Let's start talking about what God can do. Let's talk

361
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,640
Speaker 1: about the fact that favor is on the way. We

362
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 1: prayed together, then I said, there's something you have to do.

363
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: Every morning. You need to declare I have the favor

364
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 1: of God. Favor is bringing me new clients, Favor is

365
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: turning my business around. Then all through the day, under

366
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,679
Speaker 1: your breath, you keep thanking God for that favor. I

367
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: saw him several months later. He was like a new person,

368
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 1: beaming with joy. He told how at his lowest moment,

369
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 1: when he thought he was done, a company contacted him

370
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: that he had never worked for and asked him to

371
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 1: make a presentation. They chose him over several major firms.

372
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 1: He said, with this one new client, I will have

373
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: more income than all my other clients combined. He's on

374
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: pace to have a record year. What you're facing may

375
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: seem impossible. Don't talk about the problem. Talk about the solution.

376
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 1: Talk about the fact that favor is on the way. Yes,

377
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: my finances may be low, but I know favor is coming.

378
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,199
Speaker 1: These people at work aren't treating me right. I'm not

379
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: gonna live bitter. I know favor is on the way. Well,

380
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,199
Speaker 1: my child is off course, but I know it's only temporary.

381
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: The favor of God is turning it around. This is

382
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: what a man named Zaruba Belt did in the scripture.

383
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 1: He was in charge of rebuilding the temple, but everything

384
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:43,159
Speaker 1: came against him. City leaders hired attorneys to try to

385
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 1: stop him, wouldn't give him the permits. Other people were

386
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 1: causing strife and trouble. Looked impossible. He could have been discouraged.

387
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: He said, who are you, o great mountain that stands

388
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: before me, you shall become a mere mole hill. I

389
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: will finish the temple by shouting grace to it. He

390
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: was saying, I have this big mountain in front of me,

391
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 1: but I'm not worried. I know it's about to become

392
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 1: a mole hell. How was this going to happen? What

393
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: was his secret? By speaking grace to it? Another word

394
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 1: for grace is favor. He was saying, yes, this obstacle

395
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: is big, but I have the favor of God. Favor

396
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: is making my crooked places straight. Favor is defeating my enemies.

397
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,199
Speaker 1: Favor is going to help me finish this project. He

398
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: didn't talk about his mountain. He talked to his mountain.

399
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 1: When you face challenges, don't get discouraged. Speak favor over them.

400
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: Look at your bank account and speak favor to it.

401
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: I will lend and not borrow. What I touch will

402
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: prosper and succeed. Speak favor over your health. This sickness

403
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: is not the end. This pain is not permanent. The

404
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: favor of God is bringing it healing. Speak favor over

405
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: the legal situation. I will be victorious. The favor of

406
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: God is keeping my enemies from defeating me. It's not

407
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 1: enough to just pray about it. It's not enough to

408
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,679
Speaker 1: just believe. What's going to turn the mountain into a

409
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 1: mole hill is by speaking grace. Now. I want to

410
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 1: make a declaration of favor over you today. If you

411
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 1: will let this take root in your spirit, I believe

412
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: change that have held you back are going to be

413
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,720
Speaker 1: broken and you're going to be released into a new

414
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 1: level of your destiny. I declare right now the favor

415
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: of God is on your life in a new way.

416
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: I declare favor over your family, Favor over your marriage,

417
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: favor over your finances. I declare favor at work, Favor

418
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: with your boss, Favor with your colleagues, favor with your clients.

419
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 1: I declare favor is opening new doors of opportunity, bringing promotion, increase, abundance,

420
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: causing the right people to be drawn to you. I

421
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: declare favor over your health, strength, energy, wholeness. You are

422
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 1: free from sickness, chronic pain, depression, addictions. I speak favor

423
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: over every force that's trying to stop you. I declare

424
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 1: right now that mountain is becoming a mole hill. Life

425
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: with Nehemiah, God's favor is going to accelerate it. Things

426
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: are going to happen sooner than you think. I declare

427
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: the favor of God is going to catapult you to

428
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: a new level. You're going to take new ground, set

429
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 1: new standards, and reach the fullness of your destiny in Jesus' name.

430
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: And if you receive it, can you say and then today,

431
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 1: I'd like to give you an opportunity to make Jesus

432
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: Lord of your life. Would you pray with me? Just say,

433
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 1: Lord Jesus, I'll repent of my sins. Come into my heart.

434
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: I make you my Lord and savior. If you prayed

435
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 1: that simple prayer, we believe you got born again. Get

436
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 1: in a good Bible based church, keep God first place.

437
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: Each week I stand on this stage and remind you

438
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: of what God says about you. Because it's easy to

439
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,479
Speaker 1: be defined by who people say we are, or by

440
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 1: our own negative thoughts that we're not talented or problems

441
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: too big. The key is to go back to who

442
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: God says you are. Now. I love to send you

443
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: my new book one hundred and one Great Things that

444
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: God Says about You. I'll help you discover your true identity.

445
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: God says you're blessed, you're chosen, You're forgiven, you have

446
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: seeds of greatness. Your future is bright. When you get

447
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: in agreement with God and declare his promises, you'll rise

448
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 1: higher and become all you were created to be.

449
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 2: As our way of saying thank you for your gift

450
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,320
