FOREWORD
BY JOSHUA MILLS
Favor is one of the greatest discoveries you can make in this life. When you uncover its power and allow it to work in your life, something dramatic will happen for you. Throughout history we can see that those who had favor on their lives made the greatest impact on society and excelled in outstanding achievement. Some are born with it, while others learn how to tap into it and nurture it into abundance. But one thing is guaranteed every world-changer will need to discover this power for themselves!
In my own life, favor has been the key that has opened countless opportunities for me to travel extensively all over the world, doing what I love to do most. I have been given the privileged opportunity to speak about miracles with both small and large audiences in more than sixty nations, and I am often asked the question, How do you receive all these invitations to travel to so many different places? Every time, my reply is the same: It must be favor. Favor will take you where nothing else can.
Nothing remains the same once favor begins to work in and through you. The Holy Bible mentions favor almost 300 times, and we can read countless stories about this undeniable favor working in the lives of those who needed it more than anything else. Favor carried Joseph from the pit into the palace (see Genesis 39). David received favor and was able to release healing because of it (see 1 Samuel 16:22-23). The only way that the Israelites escaped from their torturous enslavement in Egypt was because of this influential favor.
In a moment, favor can change everything forever!
The Lord caused the Egyptians to look favorably on the Israelites, and they gave the Israelites whatever they asked for (Exodus 12:36 NLT).
Favor will open up hidden doors of access it will allow you to revel in undue prosperity it will connect you with your promises and bring you into a place of affluence.
Favor is supernatural. It will do things for you that you cannot do for yourself. Seek it, discern it, learn how to cooperate with it (see Proverbs 3:1-4).
Favor is unstoppable. It is like a mighty river that flows with unlimited potential. Once you discover this uncontainable force you will always have more than enough (see Job 10:12; Psalm 90:17).
Favor is bulletproof. It doesnt matter how strong the resistance appears, this force is invincible. When favor is on your side you become a force to be reckoned with (see Psalm 5:12; 23:4-6; 84:11)!
Favor is irresistible. It will bring people, opportunities, connections, miracles and finances into your lap (see Genesis 39:2-6; Ezra 7:6; Exodus 33:17; Psalm 89:17).
Favor is unbeatable. It contains the power for winning in life. Favor is better than riches it is the golden key that unlocks the gates of immeasurable blessing for you (see Esther 5:2; Acts 7:9-10).
And favor is so much more

CHAPTER ONE
FAVOR DEFINED
Passionately pursue favor! Why? Because favor is so extremely powerful. Favor will make your life delightful and extremely fruitful for the glory of God. The single blessing of Gods undeserved, unmerited favor on your life will ensure success in all you do.
I remember years ago listening to a motivational speaker in a conference. Looking around the auditorium, I noticed that the attention of every person in attendance (including myself) was completely captured by the young man delivering the motivating message. He was definitely not endowed with a celebrity appearance; neither was he dressed in a wardrobe that would wow a crowd. Although he had a charming personality, his message was simple and contained principles that were common in motivational settings.
There was nothing uniquely profound about his insights, and his delivery was actually quite unpolished yet I found myself hanging on every word. I had heard similar messages many times before, and probably the others in attendance had also.
A fter the meeting, I found myself in the crowd that was purchasing available materials at his resource table in the lobby. I loaded up with brochures, books, audio teachings, and manuals. Following my shopping spree, I went to the womens restroom and again heard numerous accolades regarding this young mans message.
What was it that made this man so desirable and successful? He was obviously saturated with favor!
Favor is a force when it is in you and on you, you are blessed! Goodness and blessings are attracted to you like a magnet when you are filled with favor.
When I was a brand new Christian, I applied for a job that I was not trained for. Young in the Lord, I had read a book that taught that Gods favor could open doors and opportunities for you. I believed it.
I proclaimed that God favored me and I would be chosen for the position. Over 100 people applied for the position, and many of them were much more qualified than I was yet I was awarded the position. FAVOR!
What can favor look like in your life? The following are some examples.
YOU ARE FAVORED WHEN:
- You are chosen for an employment position 100+ others applied for, even though you didnt have education, experience, or the qualifications needed.
- You are in a long queue in the grocery store and a cashier whispers in your ear, Come over to this check out lane, and opens it just for you.
- You walk down the street and notice that many are smiling at you, wishing you a good day as you go by.
- You share the gospel with a stranger in Starbucks after they invite you to sit down and drink your coffee with them. They lock in to everything you are saying and accept Christ.
