now you may or may not realize that your
your carry of God’s favor but I’m here
to tell you church amen
that you are God’s favor going
everywhere to happen it’s best that you
are conscious of it it’s best you are
aware of it
the Bible says one of the things that
Jesus did for us efficient chapter 1 is
here in verse 6 to the praise of the
glory of His grace notice something is
so good that we gotta praise not just
His grace the glory of His grace why by
which by that grace God made us accepted
in the beloved the beloved here’s Jesus
God made us accepted in the beloved and
I’m gonna give you the Greek the Greek
here for accepted is the word carried to
all right from the word carries for
grace carry to the longer word means
highly grace highly favored and is only
used one other time in the New Testament
for Mary the mother of Jesus when the
angel Gabriel appeared the angel Gabriel
says to her hail thou art highly
favoured literally in the Greek one word
hurry – blessed art thou among women
notice among women not above women the
angel told her you are blessed among
women because you are highly favored
what she has you and I have we are all
sorry – we are all highly favored but
God almost like he’s not satisfied with
the with the entire verse God puts in
the word instead of high except highly
favored in the Lord Jesus instead of
Jesus he put on there in the bill it’s
to Jesus but Jesus is the beloved that’s
how accept that you are is almost a
picture of God is hugging you and you
feel so loved and then God says you are
highly favored and it’s not just for the
moment it’s not just transient it is
eternally you are like this before God
praise God this is good news this is
good news all right
praise God now we go back to a fish
aromas five we have this grace we stand
on this favored ground and we rejoice in
hope of the glory of God not only we are
on favored ground what can we expect
every morning when we wake up what can
we expect from the day more of your
boss’s nagging more of your your your
people around you your colleagues
complaining more of bad news no you can
wake up every day in hope just let you
know that the Bible word for hope is not
I hope it happens which will really say
today is uncertain perhaps maybe Bible
hope is certainty
all right the word lp’s justing of elvis
under v2p
LP LP s means confident expectation
confident not maybe of good happening in
your future all right so you have a
confident expectation of the good
opinion of God every morning when you
wake up you may not know what the day
holds but you know one thing this day
the whole day God has a good opinion of
me amen see many of us when we fail we
always think that when we feel someone
does not have the good open of me
anymore because I just felt him I just
felt heard therefore she she no longer
has the same good opinion that she used
to have but with God even when you fail
that position is eternal that position
is secure forevermore can I have a good
amen are you listening people all right
now listen keV I’m gonna show you
something that there are you better puts
it somewhere in your special pocketbook
or whatever and you’re safe somewhere
because this is gonna come back to bless
you again and again and again in the
years to come alright you need to know
that this difference the Bible tells us
that we are highly favored in the
beloved
that’s our standing before God say
standing everybody
now in our state say state s tage your
state your emotional state your physical
state your state changes every day
you’re standing doesn’t you’re standing
before God is settle you’re standing
before God as righteous as Holy as
blameless God’s opinion good opinion of
you
resulting in praise never change never
changes gods but a view of you is right
as righteous as holy in Christ is
eternal is divinely settled you’re
standing never change before God your
state changes sometimes you feel up
sometimes you feel depressed you feel
down if you low there are times you feel
angry
there are times you feel loving there
are times you feel joyful times you feel
sad there are times you want to give
there are times you want to keep
everything you have your state
fluctuates your state is temporal your
state is transient you’re standing
before God is eternal you’re standing is
settle you’re standing is divine your
state changes now remember this forget
anything be summoned don’t forget this
always measure yourself by your standing
never by your step
never measure your standing by your step
okay but always judge your state by your
standing one more time
never never judge your standing by your
step if you still down all right doesn’t
mean you become unrighteous before God
you feel angry you feel bitter that day
you feel like you want to kill somebody
that day doesn’t change your standing
before God amen just because you feel hi
you feel like you love the entire world
and we give all your money away to bless
everyone that’s poor doesn’t add to your
standing your standing is in Christ
you’re standing it forever your state
cannot touch your standing are you
listening
listen always judge your state by your
standing never judge your standing by
your state what do I mean when I say
never judge you are standing by your
state some people say well today you
know I fell it punching my my
schoolteacher well I’m telling you I
feel a punching my boss in the face well
that’s your step you are in an angry
state it in no way means some people
think well man after the day remember
I’m a Christian
some people are quite slowly remembering
they are Christian oh man I just had
that bad thought and I’m a Christian oh
man just yesterday I volunteered for for
to be an usher now God doesn’t have a
good opinion of me anymore I had a bad
part just now god no longer had a good
opine of me in fact if anyone asked me
to pray for them right now say come back
tomorrow I’m not in the right State see
in other words they are allowing their
state to touch they are standing but in
God’s eyes your state cannot alter your
standing cannot because you’re standing
was accomplished by Christ not by you
therefore you cannot undo your standing
all right so the best way to know are we
are we saying to get your state no you
do your state judge your state by your
standing because I am close to God
because I am righteous in God’s eyes
by what Christ has done because I have
influence with God because I’m highly
favored in the beloved
I can ask God to help me with this bad
temper on the road I can judge my state
by my standing
