Divine Favour

   Divine favour
Rom 9:10-16.
And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, even by our father Isaac (for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls), it was said to her, “The older shall serve the younger.” As it is written, “Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.” What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? Certainly not! For He says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion.” So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy. (Romans 9:10-16 NKJV)
God chose us after the order of Jacob.
What is favour ? 
-Divine veto, 
-divine choice for good that remove sweat.
-It distinguishes you for result without sweat.
-Luke 2:52 Jesus grew in wisdom + Favour
-Favour was one  of the pre requisite for achievement for Jesus.. Acts10:38. 
Gen 39:21 
But the LORD was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. (Genesis 39:21 NKJV)
Joseph obtained Favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison. 
-Favour sets you apart for a lift you do not work for.
