Good morning and Magnificent Monday. As we finish up the teachings in the month of Favor In September based on Exodus 3:19-21, Proverbs 8:32-35 and Luke 2:51-52 there is something I want to share with all. I work in the Security field and as a Doorman. I started off working in a high school in the south suburbs as security who saw a need to not holler at the children but give them something to grow on so I begin to give them a positive word for the day. I then went to work as security at UPS where I stood on the corner of on 14th and Union and waved to passing cars and said good morning so much that I had many regulars that looked forward to that. I went to 175 W. Jackson as a security officer and used phrases like brand new week, brand new attitude and you are will have a better than before and encouraged over 5000 people daily. In none of these situation could I mention the name of Jesus but because of him I Increased in Favor.
Before I get into the Biblical portion of this teaching I want to define the word increase and in doing so I am going to use dictionary.com. The word increase means as follows; to make greater as in size,
number or strength. So as my growth process was beginning I had a teaching small in size but as time went by the numbers increased of who I was affecting and I was also gaining strength. I was Increasing in Favor. This teaching will be coming form the last base scripture and that is Luke 2:51-52.
In going in the Word of God for the teaching of Increase In Favor I begin in Luke 2:50. In this verse Jesus has just amazed the scholars in the town of Jerusalem ( Luke 2:41-47) by his understanding. He
was increasing his ministry in size while he was just a boy. Even though his parents did not understand what he meant in Luke 2:50, The educators in the high school did not understand what I was doing. I was Increasing In Favor.
In looking in the Word of God to continue the teaching of Increasing In Favor I go Luke 2:51. In this verse Mary sees how her son is coming into his own as it was spoken to her by the angel (Like 1;26-
38). As I was sitting on the corner of 14th and Union no matter if it rained, shined or snowed I was gaining numbers of people who needed to hear some encouragement. I was Increasing In Favor.
In coming to the last verse of this teaching of Increasing In Favor which is Luke 2:51 we see where the strength of Jesus is now coming into play as he has gained wisdom, stature and favor not only
with man but with God. As I begin to encourage the over 5000 people daily even though I had to be politically correct and not mention Jesus by name my actions showed I was gaining strength and favor with man and God. Increasing In Favor.
In closing Jesus is the head of our lives and wants us all to Increase In Favor. Your new ministry, your social media website and your faith based business can grow in size as you Increase In Favor. You can be an change agent in education and in government and see numbers grow as you Increase In Favor. You can gain strength in teaching families and having your spoken word events grow as you Increase In Favor. As Apostle H. D. Wilson has taught that we can have Heaven here on earth ( See the Lords Prayer in Matthew 6:9-13). We also have a place of rest after our days have come to an end. Increasing In Favor. I give God all the glory and the honor for the teachings of this month. Favor In September. Yes it has but with God as the head of your life, Jesus as your mediator and the Holy Spirit inside you Favor is Always. Have a great week all. Please join me Saturday for the new theme of the month.
Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. This past month I was riding with my friend Angela Francis. On this particular day she had to go get her hair done and her friend Roxanne' shop. I had done this numerous times in the past so when I was getting ready to leave I told Angela I was going to the forest preserve to sit and wait as she got her hair done. At the forest preserve I would be able to do two things while I was there. I would be able to think of ideas for my blog, my radio show and my daily postings on Facebook. When you attempt to write you sometimes get writer's block and need to get to a different atmosphere ( Hmmm Writer's Block may be a blog soon LOL ). The other reason I wanted to go to the forest preserve is because it was hot that day and I needed some shade. So as I approached the forest preserve I put on my left turn signal and waited for traffic coming southbound to clear. After
Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. Growing up we used to love to take pictures. Maybe not myself because I had a self confidence problem, but everywhere you went there was someone taking pictures. In grammar school we took pictures every week. In high school we took them every year. At church we took pictures. In the club we took pictures as a group to show we all went to a party. Most of the pictures we took were with a Polaroid camera which had great quality then. But if you wanted the best pictures you wanted the photographer to take your pictures. This was one of the coolest professions back then because all the ladies who wanted to be models or actresses had to go to the photographer to get that photo to take to the different agencies to show how they look. So in order to get the best quality the photographer had to go someplace where he could get the best results. It was his Dark Room. This is the na
Good morning and Happy Friday. The summer is now beginning and the weather is now reaching its highest temperatures. It has reached a high point of 90's so far in the Chicagoland area and it appears to be nothing in sight to relieve us of these conditions that are almost drought like. As the summer gets ready to start in earnest next week we anticipate the warmest temps of the year after a winter that saw a little snow but the hawk, ( that's what we call the wind in the CHI ) was in full effect. But the sun has been out daily and we need a little moisture in our lives. We expect things to get wet in order for us to not only cool off but to wash away some things and bring a freshness of new things in our lives. The hotness of the weather coincides with the hotness in our lives. We need things to cool off a little bit but need some things to come down so we can enjoy the things in our lives that is promised to us as Christians. We are faithful and trusting in his Word. So as we
