                                                                                    12 Kings Highway
                                                                                    Homeward Bound, Heaven
 
 
                                                                                    
Dear 2014,
 
My name is Highly Favored and I look forward to meeting you very soon.  I wanted to take this time to tell you a little about myself before we meet and I also wanted to share what I anticipate about you so far.
 
My name, "Highly Favored" was given to me by my Father.  He instead that I am special and everyone who meets me must know it and confess it just by saying my name.  If you haven't already figured it out, I am a daddy's girl and I just LOVE my daddy.  He is so patient with me; He is the kindest you would ever know.  There is no one like him in the Universe. You can search all over, high and low and you won't find anyone like him; I guarantee that. Just to prove how wonderful He is, my daddy knew that I wouldn't be a perfect child so he decided even before I was born to take the ultimate punishment for me. He decided to die for me and endured much torture, humiliation and shame for something that I did. He didn't want me to experience any of that. But he had a plan, He knew that he would not die forever so he woke up from death and startled everyone who knew him.
 
My daddy went to his homeland shortly after a place called Heaven. He promised that He would come back for me and take me there one day.  He told me that where He lives there is no crying/sadness, no sickness, no troubles just never ending joy, peace and happiness.  He told me that in Heaven, I will eat from a tree that bears 12 different fruits, walk on a sea of glass, play with animals that we are normally afraid of and I can just imagine seeing some colors and experiencing things that far supersede my imagination capabilities.   I am excited and I can't wait to get there. 
 
Daddy told me that I should never forget Him and I should always love him and remember to love everyone else too.  He left some gifts for me, one is a book that has a history of my first parents Adam and Eve and a lot of interesting history of things  that happened and different people and happenings through the years.  The book even tells me things that are going to happen in my generation and how Daddy will be there for me.   Another gift Daddy left me is His Spirit.  Daddy's spirit comforts me and reassures me all the time.  Daddy says I can talk to him through a special process called prayer. It's our secret and private way to keep in touch.  I love my Daddy, can you tell?
 
Well 2014, now that you know the most important details about my background.  I wanted to share that I am also embracing more and more each day that I am beautiful inside and out, confident,  friendly, and generally easy going.  I am looking forward to knowing more about you and I anticipate that you are going to be full of great surprises, wonderful memories and triumphant testimonies. 

I look forward to meeting you 2014.

Sincerely,

Highly Favored.

Greater is Coming Part II

Have you ever wonder why me Lord?  Sometimes it's even, why not me Lord? 

There are times when circumstances and situations test my faith and I feel crushed or afraid or weary.

Today I want to share the beginning part of the lyrics of "Greater is Coming" by Jekalyn Carr. There is a powerful reminder for us in it that reassures me that life may sometimes be uncomfortable but remember....

An olive has to go through three stages, for its oil to run:
It has to go through the shaking, the beating, and the pressing
And just like the olive, some of you may have felt like you go through the shaking, the beating and the pressing.
You've went through all of that for your oil to flow
Now, your greater is coming...

If it had not been for the shaking,
I never would have been ready for the making, no

If it had not been for the beating,
I would have never knew how anointed I would be.
If it had not been for the pressing,
I wouldn't be able to walk into my destiny.
He's preparing me, preparing me, preparing me for greater...

I feel a shaking in the Spirit,
I feel a beating in the Spirit,
I feel a pressing in the Spirit,
Preparing me for greater...

I feel a shaking in the Spirit,
I feel a beating in the Spirit,
I feel a pressing in the Spirit,
Preparing me for greater...

If it had not been for the shaking,
I never would have been ready for the making, no

If it had not been for the beating,
I would have never knew how anointed I would be.

If it had not been for the pressing,
I wouldn't be able to walk into my destiny.
He's preparing me, preparing me, preparing me for greater...


I feel a shaking in the Spirit,
I feel a beating in the Spirit,
I feel a pressing in the Spirit,
Preparing me for greater...

I feel a shaking in the Spirit,
I feel a beating in the Spirit,
I feel a pressing in the Spirit,
Preparing me for greater...

Many are the afflications of the righteous,
But the Lord delivereth them out,
Of them all...

Because your greater is coming...

Greater (greater is coming)
Wanna let you know greater (greater is coming)
Hey, greater, yes it is (greater is coming)
Said I know that my greater is coming (greater is coming)

Can you just lift your hands and say greater (greater)
Is coming (is coming)
Eyes haven't seen (greater)
Ears haven't heard (is coming)
My greater is coming (greater)
My greater is coming (is coming)

Greater is Coming

I love the song " Greater is Coming" by Jekalyn Carr.

The song ministers to my spirit every time I hear it.  I just wanted to declare a portion of this song, this is not were the song starts, however, this portion of the song waters the  My Season post.  As the Lord continues to season me, I know my greater is coming...

I feel it, I know that I know it's coming:

Greater anointing (it's coming)
Greater power (it's coming)
Greater destiny (it's coming)
Greater door (it's coming)

It's coming, it's coming (it's coming)
It's coming, yes it is (it's coming)
I believe it's coming (it's coming)
I know it's coming (it's coming)

Look out world (it's coming)
Here comes my healer (it's coming)
Look out world (it's coming)
Here comes my deliverer (it's coming)

Here comes my redeemer (it's coming)
My restorer, my way maker (it's coming)
My breakthrough, my way out (it's coming)
My greater, my greater is coming (it's coming)

My greater is coming (it's coming)
Declare in the atmosphere (it's coming)
My greater is coming (it's coming)
I shall lack no more (it's coming)

I shall lack no more, my greater is coming (it's coming)
My greater is coming (it's coming)
I believe it, I believe it (it's coming)
I trust in you Lord, I trust in you Lord (it's coming)

You're preparing me for greater (it's coming)
Thank you for the shaking (it's coming)
Thank you for the beating, thank you for the pressing (it's coming)
Cause I know (it's coming)

My greater is coming (it's coming)
My greater is coming, you're pulling me through

He's preparing me for greater...

Jekalyn Carr:
Oh my greater,
My greater is already here
My greater is already here,
I'm walking into a new season,
Oh, it's a new season
Oh, deliverance is here
Oh, it's already here
Oh, yeah yeah...

Hallelujah......Thank you Jesus, I KNOW it's coming. Your Greater, your Manifest Blessing.  Thank you God... I thank you Lord.
