Favor Will Find You: Water In The Wilderness

Good evening everyone and God's love and blessings upon your life! It has been a few months, but from now on, expect a post from my blog every 2-3 weeks! Before we go any further, please share this post and even the first post from November on your social media pages (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, text and inbox the link to your friends and family who need a word, etc.) and subscribe so that you can be notified whenever a new post is released. I want every post to reach at least 300 souls, Christian and non-Christian, so let us work together to get the word of the Lord across the United States and even the world! Today, we will discuss the Lord pouring out favor on your life even in your hidden place and dry seasons of your life! This is part one of an either two or three part prophetic message, so the next one or two parts will be released within the next 2 weeks!

Many of you are discouraged, depressed, and disappointed because of the fact that God has shifted you into a wilderness, an unknown territory, an unfamiliar season where your old friends, resources, and habits that you relied on for pleasure, validation, and security are all gone. You feel like Abraham, where the Lord told you to leave your earthly inheritance, leave your old circle, even some of you had to leave your churches, because the doctrine and secret strongholds keeping heaven closed over them conflicted with the anointing and mantle that the Lord has placed on your life. Now you find yourself in a new home or no home, a new job or no job, a new church or no church, even new friends or no friends at all! Even though you are surrounded, you feel isolated, lost in the crowd, and misunderstood, I am here to remind you of God's promise that you will find favor even in the desert place of your life!

Ishmael and Hagar (Genesis 21:8-21)

For the sake of trying to make this post as short as possible, I encourage you to read these scripture passages on your Bible or through Google. In this first passage, Hagar is one of Abraham's servants and they had a child together named Ishmael, because Abraham was tired and discouraged due to the fact that Sarah was not able to conceive a child. Later on Abraham and Sarah regretted their decision and basically kicked Hagar and Ishmael out of their home/camp and they were forced to survive in the desert. The Lord would speak to Hagar and say that He has heard the pain and cries of her child and that HE HIMSELF would take care of them, and from that moment on, He opened her eyes and she was able to find a well of water! The Lord takes it a step further saying that He will make Ishmael "into a great nation!"

So the prayer and prophetic word from this scripture is that in the mighty name of Jesus:

Similar to Ishmael and Hagar, many of us have been thrown into the wilderness either due to mistakes we made, the mistakes and disobedience that we were born into, or a mixture of both. We are both Isaac and Ishmael at the same time, where our existence was still meant to be and pre-ordained by God, but the circumstances, generational curses, and strongholds we were born into made our lives more obscure and complicated than the Lord ever had in mind for ud. First of all I must let you know, YOU ARE NOT MISTAKE and it does not matter how you were born, what you were born into, and who you were conceived by! Even if the circumstances are traumatic and unfavorable, God is still working them out for your good, and in the end, it shall look like His divine blueprint that He has prepared for you, because He has written the end from the beginning!!

The Lord has heard your cries. Yes people used you, abused you, controlled you, sabotaged you, rejected you, and even the spirits and demons of your past sins and your ancestors have tried to torment you and abort your dreams, purpose, and life, but the Lord breaks it off of you even now in the name of Jesus! We come out of agreement with every health curse, word curse, and financial curse that has reduced you to almost nothing! Even in the wilderness of your life, God is giving you wells of salvation, healing, deliverance, favor, opportunity, increase, and sustenance, whether or not the nations will ever know your name! Whether or not you ever get the school degree, ministry title, or career position, for you will know what it is like for God to take care of you, and He has removed every natural reliance so that HE HIMSELF can take care of your every need, so that the egoistic and manipulative voices of your past will not be able to take glory and credit for what God is about to do in your valley! Even now your valley of victimization is about to be your valley of victory because the Lord is opening your eyes to see His hand even in the midst of hardship!

The Lord gives you vision and insight to new avenues of wealth, provision, and divine connections and covenants. He is stirring up your natural and spiritual gifts, so that you can bring glory to His name, and create protection and provision for yourself and your bloodline! He is making you into a great nation by increasing your impact and influence! This is why that job fired you, why some of your friends and family walked out on you, why that man or woman had to be separated from you, and why you had to move to a different city, church, or even country! Yes, oh yes, there is DIVINE ALIGNMENT even in the wilderness! Drink up sons and daughters of God! Drink deliverance, drink healing, drink peace, because this water that the Lord gives you will cause you to thirst no more! And the Lord finally says you will be like a cactus who thrives in the desert, and you will not die here, but you will be a symbol of the sovereignty of God and be a testimony to desert dwellers everywhere! In Jesus name, AMEN!

May these words satisfy your soul, and here are some songs to meditate on and decree over your life, because there is water in the wilderness, windows in the wilderness, and because of that, you can worship in the wilderness!
