WHAT THE FATHER HAS FOR YOU NO MAN CAN STOP. UNMERITED FAVOR

The Lord keep bringing me back to a dream I had back in April...

In this dream I was in this department store. I walked to the cash register and saw this lady with an abundant amount of chocolate bars that were over half off. I asked her where did she get the chocolate bars from. She wouldn't tell me. I then asked if I could buy one from her, but she didn't want to do that either. 

As we walked off, the cashier that was checking the lady out stopped me. The cashier gave me a bag that had some chocolate in it for free. The lady looked upset because it seemed that he took some of her chocolate to give to me. I felt thankful. End of the dream.

The first thoughts that came to mind as I sat with the Lord about this dream was UNMERITED favor, open doors, and what someone else wouldn't do, the Lord will raise up another to do.

I felt led to do more research, looking into the biblical meanings of chocolate and cashier.

Here is what I found:

Chocolate reflects FAVOR, REWARD, or the "FRUIT OF THE LAND" provided by grace per Google via multiple sources.

The cashier represents DIVINE EXCHANGE and JUSTICE from God per Google via multiple sources.

I feel there were people in this past season that the Lord has blessed abundantly that were supposed to help others in diverse ways, but chose not to. They were supposed to be doors of opportunity just as others were doors of opportunity for them. Some were suppose to invest time and wisdom, sow money, share strategies and connections, etc. They became selfish, wanting to keep things all to themselves with different underlining ulterior motives of their hearts. The favor the Lord showed them, they withheld from you when given the opportunity to be a blessing.

Let me be clear. Everyone is not called to help everyone. We must be intentional on who we are to favor, seeking guidance from the Lord.

The good news is that what one person wouldn't do, the Lord will raise up another to do. It will be without reproach, and without pushback. 

For those that this is for, you can get ready for UNMERITED FAVOR and OPEN DOORS.

UNMERITED FAVOR means receiving a blessing, kindness, or goodwill that YOU HAVE NOT EARNED, DO NOT DESERVE, and CANNOT REPAY per Google.

In the dream chocolate was taken from the selfish lady, and GIVEN to me. I did not have to pay anything for it. Not even the huge sale price. 

This lets me know there is a cost to count when being selfish for any reason, and it also lets me know that NO ONE CAN STOP GOD FROM FAVORING YOU! 

The Father has also been highlighting OPEN DOORS and TRANSITION. Not only is He about to open doors for some of you, but everything you need as you walk into the open doors will be given to you. 

I had three dreams in one night about flights. In each dream I was told that the man I was seeing (JESUS) has already purchased my flight tickets. In one dream I was told there would be instructions waiting for me at the airport with my purchased tickets! Two out of those three dreams other individuals were with me, so I know those dreams were not just for me. 

THE LORD IS OUR SHEPARD... the ONE who LEADS, GUIDES, and PROVIDES (Psalms 23:1)!

THE FATHER OPEN DOORS THAT NO MAN CAN SHUT, AND CLOSES DOORS THAT NO MAN CAN OPEN (Revelation 3:8). Thank Him for BOTH the open doors and the close doors. With BOTH He has your best interest at heart.  

Get ready for the NEW THING and the NEW WAY of life the Father has being highlighting to some of you for so long (Isaiah 43:19). Although some of it was delayed by others disobedience, but what it did not do is stop the hand of God!!!

May you see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living (Psalm 27:13)! Get ready for His UNMERITED FAVOR.

Forgive those who you know were supposed to favor you, and thank God for those who will hear and obey on His command to bless you in diverse ways. 

"And AFTER you have suffered a little while, the God of ALL grace (UNMERITED FAVOR), who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, WILL HIMSELF RESTORE, CONFIRM, STRENGTHEN, and ESTABLISH you." 1 Peter  5:10 (emphasis mines)
