Luke 2:52
"And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man."

Jesus increased in favour with God and man. This means there is really no limit to how much favour you can enjoy with both God and people. You can keep increasing in favour with God and people to infinity.

To the extent God favours you, is also to the extent people favour you. People favour you because of the presence of God's favour on your life.

Since God's favour has no limits, there is simply no limit to the favour you can find with men.
This is a vital secret to ever-increasing success in life: keep increasing in favour with God and man.

The more favour you enjoy with God, the more people favour you. If you want to be very successful in life and influence/lead/attract many people, you need to keep increasing in favour with God and man.

The more God favours you, the more people favour you: this is the vital secret. Divine favour lifted Joseph from the dungeon and placed him at Pharaoh's own right hand above others in pharaoh's court.

There is really no limit to how great a man can become in life; as long as he keeps finding favour with God, he will keep finding favour with all categories of people-both small and great, poor and rich.

What is the secret of increasing in favour with God and man?

1. Praising God continually:
Luke 24:53
And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
Acts 2:47
PRAISING God, and HAVING FAVOUR with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

2. Increase your giving to the gospel and to the poor:

2 Corinthians 9:6-8
But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: FOR GOD LOVETH A CHEERFUL GIVER.
And God is able to make ALL GRACE (favour) abound toward you; that ye, always having ALL SUFFICENCY (through the favour of others) in all things, may abound to every good work:

But this is a vital question I must ask: have you been habitually doing things not pleasing to God even as His child? Are you living in secret sin even as a Christian?
Please come out, you are only cheating yourself of God's favour and blessings...
God bless you.
