The Bible tells us the story of Moses, who was brought into the home of Pharoah as a baby, and had favor during that time. So much so that Moses was able to begin and fulfill an exodus of great measure.
It also tells us that the Apostle Paul had favor with King Aggripa and in the same way, King Aggripa gave Paul space to voice his thoughts just as Pharoah let Moses “carry on” with the freeing of the Israelites right before his eyes.
True Story
When a person’s story has been developed right before our eyes and we’re still willing to discount it… There is a problem.
When our own story is being developed before our eyes and we’re still willing to act as if nothing is happening, there is a problem. And it could be impossible to change this attitude.
We have an opportunity for favor. To have a platform, that no one can challenge and even kings have to listen to. This occurs through our story and the development of our character (personal suffering). This is where Favor shows up.
When we witness the potential for this type of growth and opportunity …It’s hard to believe! Much of us that are invited to this kind of opportunity, the way the rich man was (also in the Bible in Mark 10:17), when asked to sell everything he had, would rather be stuck in disbelief, discount or outright reject this potential in order to stay comfortable, hold onto our own beliefs, and not have to experience the suffering that leads to character growth.
Do We Believe?
Do we believe in such a favor to take care of us in our most raw and wretched state? Have we invited in the potential so that we can at least admit we are having a hard time letting go?
The rich man, mentioned earlier, had invited him into this place, but then he is challenged to go further (read it for yourself). Are we ready to go further… into this place of favor?
