FAVOUR FROM A DISTANCE
Memorise: And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and
kings to the brightness of thy rising. Isaiah 60:3; Read:
Exodus: 3:1-4, Bible in one year: Nehemiah 6:15-8:12,
John 7:25-39
wherever you are. Sometimes ago, we went to hold a
crusade in Italy. While we were preaching, the message was
being aired over the radio. Suddenly, the Lord said that
there was a man listening to me via the radio who was
impotent. The Lord asked me to tell the fellow that his
virility was restored. Meanwhile, the man in question was
lying on his bed in his house, far away from where we were.
As soon as he heard the word, his manhood was restored.
Favour located him at home. By the time he tried to locate
us at the crusade ground, we had closed and left for the
hotel where we were staying. When he got to the hotel, he
burst into our room saying he was the one whose case was
addressed, and that he had received his miracle. This
season, favour will locate you right where you are. Right in
your home, in your living room, on your bed, favour will
visit you in Jesus’ Name.
Favour can always locate you, even from a distance. After
Moses had spent about forty years in exile in Midian, God
sent favour to locate him at the backside of the desert, in the
form of an angel manifested as a burning bush which was
not consumed. I also have experience God’s favour in a
foreign land. The first time I travelled outside Africa, I went
to Canada for the World Conference of Applied
Mathematicians. I knew no one there and had no idea what
kind of food I would be eating there. Meanwhile, my wife
was at home praying that God should take care of me. At
about the same time, someone was looking through the list
of mathematicians who had come for the conference. As he
checked, he saw my name, Enoch Adeboye. He mused that it
could be a French name, even though he had every reason
to believe it is a Nigerian name. He decided to check up on
me. On his way to my hotel room, this man resolved to
speak to me in Yoruba language; he said to himself that if I
replied, then I must be Nigerian. He eventually got to my
door and knocked. “Who is it?” I asked. “Emi ni ( I am the
one)” he replied. “Wole (come in)”, I responded. Before that
day was over, I was eating pounded yam right there in
Canada. Favour can locate you outside the shores of your
land. God can use somebody you do not know to favour
you. Are you away from home right now and in need of
favour? God will cause favour to locate you! Someone you
do not know will favour you today in Jesus’ Name.
PRAYER POINT :
Father, let Your favour locate me today from the four corners of the earth.
