God’s Favor… Is NOW!
I was asked to speak to a group of people a couple of months ago. When I received the invitation, I had no idea what I was going to say to them. But as time progressed, I felt the Holy Spirit impress upon me to speak to them about God’s favor. Truthfully, it came to me one night around eleven o’clock, right as I was trying to fall asleep (the Holy Spirit is like that, but He knows I’m a night owl so it’s all good).
God’s Favor
The reason for speaking on this is that God wants us to know that His favor is NOW. God is raising up an army of women NOW. Here’s why… Women are being used, abused, and thrown aside like trash. They are treated as such, made to think as such, and are the victims of many abuses such as verbal, mental, emotional, physical, sexual… women and girls are being sold into human trafficking. They are victims of pornography, prostitution, drugs & alcohol. And God’s favor is upon several woman who have been rescued, healed, or brought out of some form of many of the above mentioned things, and HE has sent them out to give others HOPE. I know. I am one of them.
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to bring Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will see, that the oppressed will be set free, and that the time of the Lord’s favor has come.” ~Luke 4:18-19, NLT

The day I realized what was causing my issues with depression, I realized that I needed my mind healed from the hurt and the abuse that I had endured for way too long. It was turning point in my life because the next week God literally healed me from the inside out! But not only that, He didn’t leave me at just healed. He directed me to the new path He had waiting for me.
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. ~Ephesians 2:10, NLT
My friend Karla Akins*, is doing a Saturday blog post about Strong Girls. She is also one of God’s Warrior Princesses who is diligently working to help others find the purpose God has for them. She is sincerely trying to help girls and women find freedom in healing and helping them discover who God says they are! I encourage you to check out her blog as well and find encouragement.
AMEN AND AMEN!!!
I wish there was a "Like" button on the comments so I could actually show people that I like what they say to me! Thank you, Karla! ;-]
