??Mary was “Highly Favored” but was almost put away by the man she dearly loved.
??She was “Highly favored” but was rejected by every person in her home town as she carried a miracle in her womb for nine months.
??She was “Highly Favored” but laid on the dirt floor of a filthy barn to give birth.
??She was “Highly Favored” but in the middle of the night she was forced flee to Egypt to save her and her child’s life.

?Favor will never look like favor at first glance.
?Favor sometimes walks through frustration, failure, fear, even heartache to get to greatness. Is there favor on your life?
?You might have to walk through the darkest night before you see the dawn of a glorious day.
?Today you may be In a place where no one sees you and you feel like no one understands what you are going through.
?All you have is a dream or a word from the Lord that you are favored.
?It’s in these times where it seems the darkest that you have to declare

?”God is not finished with me! I have favor with Him and my life will bring Him Glory.
?I will not give up, give in, or go down.
?I’m ‘Highly Favored’ and what will be birthed through me will bless the nations of the earth.”

Some have given up and left the favor they had behind because they faced adversity.
Hear me today, don’t be like them!
Be like Mary and give birth to something that will bless the nations.

-Prophet Charlie Shamp
