What's the "Favor" Deal?
Recently, I have been hearing a lot of talk about "God's Favor". Is this an outgrowth of prosperity doctrine?

Re: What's the "Favor" Deal?
It does seem like the new buzzword doesn't it!
I certainly don't want anything other than God's favor in my life... I just pray that I have knowledge to identify and humility to accept his will and favor in all things.

Luke 1:28
And the angel came in to her, and said, Hail, you that are highly favored, the Lord is with you: blessed are you among women.

Her favor with God got her pregnant at 13... I am sure that was not exactly easy to deal with.

There's a good sermon somewhere in Hoovie's quote.

Re: What's the "Favor" Deal?
Lord have mercy! You guys are a day late and a dollar short! I have been preaching the FAVOR OF GOD for well over 10 years. Grace is the unmerited, unearned and unrepayable FAVOR of Almighty God!
I pray for a crown of FAVOR on my head and those that hear me daily!
You know guys - if you keep preaching what you have always preached - you keep getting what you always got!
Favor is not NEW!
One day of Favor, is worth a thousand years of Labor!

Atlanta Bishop, you make me sick! I wanted to be the one to say it. Favor isn't a new concept at all. Unfortunately, most apostolics are obsessed with preaching/hearing the same things (ACTS 2:30, dress code, tongues,etc.) until there is so much that hasn't been embraced. Therefore, they are left out in the cold because they can't move forward.

And what exactly is YOUR problem?
1. Why do I make you sick?
2. I never said Favor was a new concept - I said exactly opposite!
3. You obviously have no clue what you are talking about!
