How to Pray favor?
Favor in the Bible is often described as God's grace, blessings, or approval upon a person. It is a supernatural endorsement or divine assistance that brings opportunities, protection, and provision beyond what is natural. Here are some key aspects of biblical favor
Pray with Expectation: As you pray for favor, maintain an attitude of expectation. Just as Jesus instructed, believe that you have received what you have prayed for, even before you see it manifest (Mark 11:24)
Live Righteously: While favor is unearned, living a life of obedience, integrity, and love aligns you with the purposes of God, making you more receptive to His favor (Proverbs 3:3-4)
Thank God Daily: Every day, thank God for His favor, whether or not you immediately see results. Thanksgiving keeps your heart focused on God’s goodness and His faithfulness to fulfill His promises.
PRAYER FOR FAVOR & MORE FAVOR
Favor is a Supernatural Force
Favor in the Bible is more than just approval or kindness; it is a supernatural force that unlocks opportunities, blessings, and divine alignment with God's purpose. It is a manifestation of God's grace, which positions individuals in places of influence, opens doors that otherwise would remain closed, and grants access to divine resources.
Scripture:
Luke 2:52 (NKJV)
“And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.”
Prayer Point:
Father, just as Jesus grew in favor with You and men, let Your favor manifest in my life as a supernatural force. Open doors of opportunity, blessings, and divine alignment with Your purposes. Position me in places of influence and grant me access to resources that align with Your will for my life.
Favor is Rooted in God's Grace
Favor is an extension of God’s grace in action, where He intervenes on behalf of individuals to bring about success, protection, or provision. Favor flows from God's decision to show kindness, not based on our works but His will.
Scripture:
Ephesians 2:8-9 (NKJV)
“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.”
Prayer Point:
Lord, I thank You that Your favor is rooted in Your grace, not my efforts. Let Your favor work powerfully in my life, bringing success, protection, and provision according to Your will. I receive Your favor as a free gift and ask that it guide every step I take.
Favor Brings Divine Opportunities
Favor is a supernatural key that opens doors to opportunities that would otherwise be inaccessible. It creates divine connections and grants access to influence, resources, and situations that align with God’s kingdom purposes.
Scripture:
Revelation 3:8 (NKJV)
“I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.”
Prayer Point
Lord, I thank You for the divine opportunities that Your favor unlocks. Open doors for me that no one can shut. Connect me with the right people and resources to fulfill Your kingdom purpose. Let Your favor bring me into new realms of influence and blessing.
Favor for Divine Connections
Favor creates divine connections that help individuals fulfill God’s calling on their lives. These relationships are God-ordained and lead to strategic partnerships that advance His purposes.
Scripture
Proverbs 3:4 (NIV)
“Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.”
Prayer Point:
Father, I pray for divine connections that align with Your plans for my life. Surround me with people who will support and guide me according to Your will. May I find favor and a good name in the sight of both You and those around me.
Favor Shields and Protects
Favor acts as a shield, providing protection from harm, delays, or destruction. It guards against circumstances or attacks that could derail destiny.
Scripture
Psalm 5:12 (NIV)
“Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.”
Prayer Point
Father, thank You for surrounding me with Your favor as a shield. Let Your favor protect me from every plan of the enemy. Shield me from harm, delays, and destruction that would hinder Your purpose in my life.
Favor for Restoration and Elevation
Favor brings restoration to what has been lost and elevates individuals to positions they couldn’t reach by themselves. It turns setbacks into setups for promotion and greater success.
Scripture
Isaiah 61:7 (NKJV)
“Instead of your shame you shall have double honor, and instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double; everlasting joy shall be theirs.”
Prayer Point:
Lord, I pray for restoration and elevation through Your favor. Restore everything that has been lost or stolen, and elevate me to new heights in my calling and purpose. Let Your favor bring double honor where there has been shame.
Favor Aligns with God's Purpose
Favor is always aligned with God's kingdom purpose. When God grants favor, it often means that the individual has been positioned to bring about His will on earth.
Scripture:
Proverbs 19:21 (NKJV)
“There are many plans in a man’s heart, nevertheless the Lord’s counsel—that will stand.”
Prayer Point:
Father, let Your favor align me with Your purpose. I surrender my plans to You and ask that Your will be done in my life. Position me to bring about Your kingdom purposes and to advance Your will on earth.
Favor Brings Influence
Favor grants influence in the natural and spiritual realms. It places people in positions where their words and actions carry weight, allowing them to impact the world for God’s kingdom.
Scripture:
Daniel 1:9 (NKJV)
“Now God had brought Daniel into the favor and goodwill of the chief of the eunuchs.”
Prayer Point:
Lord, grant me favor with those in authority and influence, just as You did for Daniel. May my words and actions carry weight, and may I use the influence You grant me to fulfill Your purposes.
Favor Requires Stewardship
Favor must be stewarded with humility and obedience to God. Disobedience or pride can lead to the loss of favor, while humility and alignment with God’s will can multiply it.
Scripture
1 Samuel 15:22-23 (NKJV)
“To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams.”
Prayer Point
Father, help me to steward Your favor with humility and obedience. Keep me from pride and disobedience that would cause me to lose Your favor. Teach me to walk in alignment with Your will, so that Your favor may increase in my life.
Favor as a System of Advancement
Favor is a divine system established by God to advance individuals. It accelerates results and gives access to things beyond human effort, allowing progress in ways that would take years in the natural.
Scripture:
Psalm 84:11 (NKJV)
“For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.”
Prayer Point:
Lord, let Your favor accelerate my progress and advance me in ways I could never achieve on my own. I ask that You would withhold no good thing from me as I walk uprightly before You. Let Your divine favor bring acceleration and supernatural results in my life.
Favor Accelerates Time
Even with talent, knowledge, and effort, the absence of favor can result in limited progress. When favor is present, it can compress time, opening doors that would otherwise take years to access.
Scripture:
Ecclesiastes 9:11 (NKJV)
“I returned and saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor favor to men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.”
Prayer Point:
Father, I ask that Your favor would accelerate time on my behalf. Let opportunities and blessings that would take years to access be released to me quickly. Thank You for Your favor that compresses time and brings supernatural results.
THE DIMENSIONS OF FAVOR
Favor with God
Favor with Men
Favor with Systems and Structures
Favor with God
Favor with God endorses plans and blesses endeavors. It ensures that God is pleased with a person’s life and actions, leading to His continued blessings and favor.
Scripture:
Luke 1:30 (NKJV)
“Then the angel said to her, ‘Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.’”
Prayer Point:
Lord, I ask for favor with You. Let my life be pleasing to You in every way. Endorse the plans You have placed in my heart and bless my endeavors according to Your will.
Favor with Men
Favor with men opens doors to influential relationships and connections that can accelerate success and progress in a person’s life. It allows for open doors in business, leadership, and more.
Scripture:
Proverbs 16:7 (NKJV)
“When a man’s ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.”
Prayer Point:
Father, I pray for favor with men, that You would open doors of influence and relationships that will propel me forward. May my ways please You, and let even my enemies be at peace with me through Your favor.
Favor with Systems and Structures
Favor with systems and structures allows for institutions, laws, and policies to align and work for your good. Systems that are normally resistant can shift in your favor.
Scripture:
Esther 5:2 (NKJV) “So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight, and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand.”
Prayer Point:
Lord, grant me favor with systems and structures. Let institutions and policies align to work for my good. Just as Esther found favor with the king, I pray that Your favor will open doors and shift systems in my favor.
Favor Can Be Lost
Favor, while freely given, can be lost if not stewarded properly. Pride, disobedience, or a lack of alignment with God’s will can cause favor to diminish, as seen in Saul’s life.
Scripture:
1 Samuel 16:14 (NKJV)
“But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and a distressing spirit from the Lord troubled him.”
Prayer Point:
Lord, help me to walk in obedience and humility, so that I do not lose the favor You have given me. Keep me aligned with Your will, and let my heart always be submitted to You. Guard me from pride and disobedience, so that I may continue to walk in Your favor.
FAVOR DECLARATIONS AND DECREES
Declare the decree in accordance to the prayer point that you are on at the end of your prayer. Speak the decree with power and declare it 7 times throughout the day. The number 7 in the Bible holds deep spiritual significance, symbolizing completion, perfection, and divine order. Incorporating this revelation into your decrees strengthens their power, as you speak with the authority of completion, divine rest, and victory.
