Four Ways To Use Your Faith and Find the Favor of God

We live by our faith.  No matter what situation you find yourself in you have to allow God to find a way to get  you out of the flesh and into faith.  When  you are calculating what can  be done with what you have you are still in the flesh.  When you add faith to what you have you open up the potential for God to do something extra ordinary with your circumstance.   I am going to share with you some practical ways to share your faith in the middle of your circumstances that will cause the favor of God to rest upon your life.

1.  Share your faith in a big way.  Whatever you are lacking be it health or finances or relationship peace don't allow those things to be the center of who you are in this life.  If you focus on those things you are going to find that those things become unmovable and unchangeable.   When you make sharing your faith the center of who you are provision seems to come from unexpected places.  I have tried this bit of faith over and over again through out my life and it has always proven true as the Scripture says,  But seek ye first the KINGDOM OF GOD, and all of these things will be added unto you.  One thing about sharing your faith is that it also helps you live your faith.  And without faith it is impossible to please God.   If know one you knows wants to hear about  your faith then share it with those you do not know.  

2.  Always be fervent in prayer.   You see when things do not go as expected and the  bills pile up, or the drama starts in the relationships, or your health begins to fail it is ALWAYS a lack of faith to ease up on your prayer right in that moment!  I cannot express this enough.  Continual fervency in prayer NO MATTER WHAT happens in your life is the greatest expression that you can give to God.   When things go wrong people have a tendency to whine and complain to others instead of being fervent in prayer.   How consistent and determined are you in prayer?  Do you consistently fast?  Do  you at time take a day to be with God in fellowship and prayer.   How often do you put on the whole armor of God and really labor in prayer.  If you do not yet do these things on a consistent basis there is room for your faith to grow.  

3.  Take up the authority you have in Christ Jesus.  Lay hands on yourself and command that sickness to flee.  Lay hands on  the people around you and command those rebellious and unclean spirits to leave their lives.   Give to others and it will be given unto you good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and flowing over shall men give unto you.   If you do not pray in authority on a regular basis you are not using the faith you have to over come this world.  

4.  Obey God's Word even when it will cost you something to do so.  Obey God even when it hurts. There is no greater expression of faith than when you obey God and take him at His Word.  Eventually obeying God will cause all good things to come into your life, however often when we obey God we suffer or are persecuted for doing so.  There is no greater faith than to lay down your life and being willing to suffer in order to obey the Word of God.   When you do this the Spirit of God will rest upon  your life as well as His favor.
