“Now in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. And having come in, the angel said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!”
This is a season of the supernatural, a season of miracles. The impossible is becoming possible! As I began to write this message, I began to see many people weighed down with anxiety, and care, and how many believe they are being disciplined or punished by God; I saw how many precious God loving people are believing that God is displeased with them even after they came back to Him and repented for things that happened in their lives.Sadly, “As a man thinks in his heart so shall he be (Proverbs 23:7),so when we live in a false belief, all the impact of that belief will be a part of our life. In other words, what I believe to be true will be my reality, and I will begin to see the manifestation of what is in my heart. If I think that God is far away and displeased with me, then I truly will feel disconnected and uncared for, and I won’t feel the blessedness of His love and grace upon my life.
The Holy Spirit is speaking into this today, as He calls us back into our rightful place of love and favor in the Father. The prodigal son immediately came back into his place of inheritance, authority and sonship, when he came back to his Father and gave himself wholeheartedly back to him. It is no different with us when we come to Jesus Christ and give ourselves to Him, submitting completely to His will and His way in our lives. There is truly no good thing He is withholding from us! Here’s what the Spirit says to us today:
“Rejoice highly favored one, for the Lord is with you. You are blessed! It may look like winter, around you, with cold, dark days and what seems like the deadness of the snow covered earth. But the Holy Spirit says “Watch! See what is happening. You are birthing something new! I am bringing to pass prophecies that have been hiding in your heart for many years. I am calling forth that thing that you have been appointed to do. Just look and begin to see; things are shifting, as you step out into your destiny. My love is upon you. My favor is upon you. You are the chosen, the blessed one giving birth through Me.”
Could it be true that God’s favor is upon you? Could it be true that you are (already) blessed and chosen, and that the Lord Himself is with you? Yes! Friend, this is a season of miracles when what you thought was completely impossible will be manifesting in your life! You are going to see God moving things in and around you and causing those things which seemed to be out of reach to suddenly be right there in front of you. He is calling those things which were “not” as though they already “are” in your life. (Romans 4:17). But first, hear Him calling your name, and drawing you out of that false belief, with His mighty hand of grace and love. Yield to the Spirit of Truth. Feel His heart for you, and the divine power of connecting to His favor and His love. You truly can begin to rejoice, O favored one, for the Lord is with you.
You are blessed and loved, and as you begin to understand this, you will see the manifestation of it coming forth in your daily life because nothing is impossible with God! May you experience all the abundant joy and peace of this very special season, and the love of God as a river upon your life!
