0:39 Gifta International. Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta. One of

0:53 the things that you may be asking is, John, You've preached, and

0:56 I've heard so many sermons, and I know from the world that I'm highly

0:59 favor of the Lord, that the favor of God rests upon me. I

1:02 know God's favors around me. These are various scriptures that I've been sharing and

1:07 teaching you over the past two years. Ever since the lads that are taking

1:11 me deep into understanding God's favor upon our life, and I've shared so many

1:15 times how the favor of God is going to make the right people to like

1:18 you. The favor of God is going to close the wrong doors and shun

1:22 the wrong people, And how the favor of God is going to make you

1:25 stand out, The favor of God is going to help you go places you

1:26 can't go on your own, and so on and so forth, various aspects

1:30 about the favor of God. But today you may be in a place where

1:34 you're saying, John, You're saying that I have God's favor upon my life.

1:37 I have the favor of God, which should help me get divine connections,

1:42 help me be at the right place at the right time, help me

1:44 me to the right people, right resources and provisions and connections that will change

1:49 the trajectory of my life. But right now, I don't understand why.

1:53 No matter what I do, I'm facing people who don't stand by me.

1:57 I'm only experiencing the wrong people stepping out of my life. I'm seeing closed

2:02 doors. I'm seeing all the negative aspects of you know, the favor of

2:06 God, and that is, you know, the closed doors and God preventing

2:10 the wrong people from coming near and all of those things. But I'm not

2:14 able to see, you know, the right people coming in. I don't

2:16 understand why I'm not getting the support. I'm not getting everybody to cheer me

2:21 on. I'm not getting, you know, the support from my family.

2:23 I'm not getting the support from my church. I'm not getting the support from

2:27 every other person whom I need the support from. And you're wondering, why

2:30 are you just hanging on the cliff, not experiencing the favor of God upon

2:34 your life. Well, if that describes you, I want to just share

2:37 something very important with you. Guys. The Lord was just imprinting in my

2:39 heart, and I believe that this world will really encourage you, This world

2:44 will really stand by you to reminding you that, you know, the favor

2:46 of God does not mean all the people are going to support you. It

2:51 doesn't mean that everybody is going to cheer you on. It doesn't mean that

2:53 you know, you're going to have the support and the encouragement from everybody.

2:58 That's not what favor of God is all about. Opposing uh, you know

3:02 Nahemia from building the wallet. They were constantly troubling him and giving all sorts

3:07 of trouble. But you know what, the fact that you know, the

3:09 king supported him, the fact that the king had sent out, you know,

3:15 the letters that were required for him, to get his provisions, the

3:17 resources, the time off that he needed, and all of those things.

3:22 You see, You know, it's not about you know, the number of

3:24 people who are for him. It's about who was for him. You know

3:29 what I mean. What I want you guys to understand. You know,

3:31 there can be ten people against you, but the one person that really matters

3:37 will be for you. You know, are you Are you getting one?

3:39 That's what is favored about. So don't get discouraged the ten people are against

3:44 you. Don't be in a place where you feel bad. At one hundred

3:47 people have rejected you. It doesn't matter, because one touch of God's favor

3:52 can take you places that Even if you have one hundred people supporting you,

3:55 it's not going to help you. Even if you have millions of people supporting

4:00 you, so to speak, it's not going to help you unless you have

4:04 that one right person that God has ordained who will really make a difference to

4:09 stand by and support you. Today. I want you guys to get this

4:12 into your spirit. The favor of God is not about everybody cheering you up.

4:15 It's about the right people standing by you. The right people who will

4:20 you know, be in the influential position, or who will open the right

4:24 doors, or who will speak up for the right things, and who will

4:27 you know, sometimes even if they're not in an influential position, maybe they're

4:30 going to open a door that's going to step into the next influential position that

4:35 you know that needs to take you to the next level of your destiny.

4:38 So today I'm asking you to trust God and say, God, you know

4:41 what, Yes, I've experienced closed doors. Yes, so many people have

4:45 rejected, so many people you know, stopped supporting me, and so many

4:48 people, you know, I really expected to stand by me. I'm not

4:51 standing by me. I want you to get into your spirit today and say,

4:55 God, I believe that the right people are going to support me,

4:58 you know, just like Yes, there were moments even Joseph right, Joseph's

5:02 own brothers, so many brothers he had did not support him. But God

5:06 used the right people at key pockets in his life. Maybe God used the

5:12 comparer to take him to the next level, the Pharaoh to believe in him.

5:15 You know, can you imagine that his own brothers, his own dad.

5:18 You know, we're not in a position to help him. But God

5:21 had somebody in a high position like the Pharaoh, to support him, to

5:28 believe in him, to trust him. That's what I want you guys to

5:30 understand. That is the favor of God. Favor of God is not a

5:34 million people supporting you. It's about the right people or the right person who

5:41 couldn't be a one in a million who's going to believe in you, one

5:44 in a million who's going to support you, one in a million that's going

5:46 to stand by you and unlock the next level of your destiny. A man,
