Favor

A few weeks ago, a prophetic word was spoken over our church body by Graham Cooke, an international speaker gifted in the prophetic. I won't go into who he is...because his identity isn't really important. He was just the messenger.

But its the message that continues to weigh on my spirit. It was one of favor. A year of unprecedented favor on our lives. Unmeasurable, unparalleled favor. A year where we learn to walk in the continual favor the Lord offers his Body.

I could write pages and pages on the prophetic word alone. but I can't. My spirit is too overwhelmed with all that it implies that I can't bring myself to write more than this:

God's favor has already begun to hit our home. He has already begun to change our lives. Turning them, literally, upside down. completely changing the plans that Jet and I were pursuing for the next few years. and showing that he has more options for our lives than we were even considering.

Over and over and over again, he surprises us with the things he's said and done. And it's those things that I hope to document over the coming months.

But for now, I just proclaim to heaven and earth that the Favor of the Lord has hit our church. and our home.
