See The Favour Of God Multiplied In Your Life

2 Peter 1:2
2Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,


When you fly first-class in an aeroplane, the cabin crew give you first-class treatment. They ask you, “Is everything okay with you, sir?” They ask you what magazines you want to read. They give you a blanket if you are cold. They give you the best kinds of food. They give you preferential treatment as compared to those travelling on economy class.

The grace of God is defined as “undeserved, unearned and unmerited favour”. And one of the definitions for favour is “preferential treatment”! Today, God wants you to know that you have His favour on you. He wants you to know that He gives you preferential treatment which you do not deserve. And He wants you to depend on and take full advantage of it in your life.

God also wants you to know that His favour in your life can be increased. You can experience more of His favour from day to day. How? The Bible tells us in 2 Peter 1:2 that God’s grace (or favour) is multiplied to us “in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord”. The more you behold Jesus and His love for you, the more you believe and confess that God’s favour is on you, the more you will see His favour work for you.

So if you are a doctor, you will find patients favouring you and you may have more patients than you can handle. If you are a businessman, you will find people just wanting to do business with you because they like you and feel good about you. Then, you will have more business than you can handle and you will need to plan for expansion!

When the favour of God shines on your church, your church will find its premises too small for the people who queue up week after week to attend the services! And when people wonder and ask, “What is happening here?” you can tell them, “It is the favour of God multiplied all over us!” And it is all undeserved, unearned and unmerited.
