SID: You thought you were the only person who went through such trouble. Kynan gets married. He’s so happy. He gets into his wonderful home. He loses his job. He can’t get another job. He loses his home. He loses his car. He’s let a friend help him and moving into one of his apartments, and not a very desirable area. And then God speaks to Keenan. What did God say?
KYNAN: God began to tell me, out of Jeremiah 29:11, I would literally walk the streets at night in frustration. I said, God, there must be a better way. And He spoke to me almost out of an audible voice. He said, “I know the plans I have for you.” And I had this experience one night where I looked up and it was almost like there was a halo. I had never seen it before in my life. And I looked up and I heard God say, “That’s my crown of favor.” Now Psalm 5:12 says, “He surrounds the righteous with favor as with His shield.” In other words, in Hebrew, a crown. And so God says, “You are already favored by me.” Now what I didn’t understand is that God was trying to teach me the blessing of Abraham. He didn’t want me to just get blessed. God was trying to make me a blessing. That’s what He told Abraham: “I’m going to make you a blessing.” And there’s a difference. So God started to tell us to be a blessing of the people. Of course, we were giving in our ministry. But God said—
SID: How do you give if you don’t have a job, you don’t have a car and you lose your house? How do you give?
KYNAN: You got to take it up with God because that’s what He told me to do. And so He told me to give. I remember one Sunday we’re at church, there’s a single mother at our church, God says, “I want you to give your last to her.” And I’m thinking, devil I bind you. And God said, “No, it’s not the devil, it’s me. I want you to give your last.” And so we begin to sow. Would you know, all of a sudden, there was a chain reaction in the realm of the spirit. Things began to shift in our favor. We were tapping into the blessing of Abraham and we didn’t even realize it. People would come up to us and say, “The Lord to me to give you $200, the Lord told me to give you $2000.” All of a sudden, someone gave us a car that we lost. All of a sudden, the little small business I had on the side, we get a contract for $5000, out of the blue. All of a sudden, things are turning around. We experience supernatural multiplication. My wife would go to the grocery store with $20 and come back with $150 worth of groceries. And I’m saying, did you get food stamps, did you get coupons? She said, “No, I don’t know.” And so all of a sudden, we were seeing Divine multiplication. But that’s not even the best part. After a certain period of time, God blessed us with more money we had ever seen in our lives. Now were in a position to be, and I want to speak to someone out there. There’s someone listening and you’re saying, well my situation is just bad. Trust me, I’ve been there. But I want to tell you today is that your circumstances don’t change the Word of God, but the Word of God will change your circumstances. Put your faith in Him and you’ll see the power of God in your life.
SID: I want you to tell me one key, briefly, that will help people walk into this favor.
KYNAN: The first key that you have to have is faith. The Bible says, in Hebrews, Chapter 11, it says that, “Without faith it’s impossible to please Him.”
SID: Yeah, but what about someone that says, oh, I’ve done that faith thing, it doesn’t work. So I’m just not even going to have any expectations anymore of anything good happening to me.
KYNAN: Well that’s what the enemy wants you to think. He wants you to be discouraged. He wants you to be frustrated. Faith is not some force. It’s not something out of the air. Faith is our confidence in God. And when we’re confident in God, what we’re doing is we’re saying that His truth is our reality. When His truth becomes our reality, we begin to align ourselves with Heaven. When you align yourself with Heaven, you can receive what Heaven has to offer. So the first key is faith. Let me give you an example of what I’m talking about. Our church went on a 21-day fast. During this fast, we didn’t just fast from food, we fasted from negative words. People were not allowed to say anything negative. They were not allowed to complain. There was a young man fasting with us and on his job, he had a problem. They brought in a new manager. The new manager gave him a negative review. Now his job is in jeopardy. All of a sudden, one day the manager comes and says, “I want to take the team out for lunch and I want to ride with you,” speaking to the young man. He’s thinking, what a conundrum I’m in. And so now, he’s riding in the car with his enemy. And she asked him, “What do you have to say about the department? What do you have to say about everything that’s going on?” she says. And he tells her, he says, “I don’t have any complaints. I’m thankful to have a job. I’m just blessed.” She’s so taken aback by what he says, she recommends for a promotion, and in two weeks, he gets a pay increase and a promotion.
SID: I want you to pray right now and proclaim God’s Word over people that are watching. I want their lives to change starting now.
KYNAN: You know, you’re listening to me now and you’re hearing everything that we’re saying. Number one, the key is faith. Number two, you have to have a relationship with God through Yeshua, and that means intimacy with God. Those who are close to God will experience His favor. I want to pray for you right now. Father, in the name of your son, Jesus, in the name of Yeshua, I bless those listening to me and I decree the favor of God over your life, the favor of your marriage, your finances, your relationships. I release the blessing of Abraham right now that makes rich and has no sorrow. From this day forward, your life will experience a supernatural turnaround. In the name of Yeshua, we pray. Amen.
SID: Did you catch what Kynan said just before he prayed for you? You must, you must have a relationship with the Living God. He wants to smile on you, but you, because of it, like the knowledge of the Good News, the Gospel, you’re thinking wrong. You’re thinking about the mistakes you’ve made. God says, if you confess your sins, He’s just and faithful to forgive you of them all righteousness. Tell God you’re sorry for your sins. Tell God you want the power to change. Make Jesus your Messiah and Lord. Believe that he took every sin of yours on himself and by his blood, your sins were washed away. Ask him to live inside of you and become your Lord. Do it now.
