 YOU ARE UNDER UNLIMITED FAVOUR

Mark 11:13 :20AMP And seeing in the distance a fig tree [covered] with leaves, He went to see if He could find any [fruit] on it [for in the fig tree the fruit appears at the same time as the leaves]. But when He came up to it, He found nothing but leaves, for the fig season had not yet come...."In the morning, when they were passing along, they noticed that the fig tree was withered [completely] away to its roots."

    This incidence was a demonstration of the interplay between the humanity and divinity of Jesus  Christ, the first fruit amongst those called sons of God . He was fully God and human as it was in the beginning like the first Adam. The scriptures says in 1 Timothy 3:16 AMP...we confess, is the hidden truth (the mystic secret) of godliness. He [God] was made visible in human flesh, justified and vindicated in the [Holy] Spirit, was seen by angels, preached among the nations.."

    It was not fig harvest season yet the tree appeared to be ready for harvest,  it was deceptive that is why it was cursed. Jesus also wanted His followers to know that God's grace is not  limited by times and seasons ;under the new testament we can harvest figs when it is not fig season.With this understanding modern agricultural practices has made it possible to harvest all year round through green-house technology and hydroponics. Under the new testament , every time is a set time for God's favour, it keeps us alive. .

  An example of unlimited favour is found in Luke 5:4-6 where Peter was told to let  down his net into the deep in the full view of fishes, this was contrary to night- time fishing practiced by professional fishermen. Peter caught more fish than he could handle because grace was working in his favour through his obedience and willingness to allow his vessel be used as a platform to preach the gospel. Those who allow their resources be used for the spread of the gospel will not suffer lack. Lack of accountability to a preacher of the gospel ,stinginess or self-preservation hinders favour .Always seek for ways from your pastor on how to help advance the gospel. It could by putting the message on radio, TV,  internet broadcasting , printing literature for free distribution etc. (Read Galatians 6:6, 1 Corintians 9;11,14, 2Corintians8;1-5 , 2 Corinthians 9:7-10) 

     The carnally minded man is bound by times and seasons and according to (Ecclesiastes  3:1) it is synonymous with things under heaven. Under the dispensation grace,  we operate from heaven not under heaven, the scriptures says in John 3:31 AMP "He Who comes from above (heaven) is [far] above all [others]; he who comes from the earth belongs to the earth, and talks the language of earth [his words are from an earthly standpoint]. He Who comes from heaven is [far] above all others [far superior to all others in prominence and in excellence]." The selfish man speaks earthly, inferior language and is always under the fear of lack and emotional insecurity (Rev.3:17). They are pessimistic and full of complaints due to a lack of the knowledge of God's word in their heart . 

     The born again child of God is not earthly but transcendent in operational capacity in comparison to the non believer. That's why we do not observe or wait for Jewish religious seasons before we can receive our blessings (Gal4:1-31). We are fully loaded with every imaginable blessing. None is missing,Scriptures says Eph 1:3TLB"How we praise God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every blessing in heaven because we belong to Christ."

 Prayer: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Ghost and power to break every barrier standing against my recovery and prosperity in Jesus name.
