Did God take permission from anyone before He elevated David and established his throne forever? God does not need anyone\u2019s permission to bless you. Whether they like it or not, you are going be blessed. Some people will call you proud but it is okay because that is usually what happens when you are confident in the Covenant. When David went to the battlefield with relief for his brothers and asked, \u201cwho is this uncircumcised philistine?\u201d<\/em> His own brother said, \u201cI know you are a proud boy; you have come to watch the battle.\u201d David said, \u201cme? I have come to kill this goliath\u201d [translated]. Confidence in God sometimes can be misconstrued but it doesn\u2019t matter, the end result will show. And for everyone that has called you proud, you are going to be paying his or her taxes because that is what David did. He paid his brothers taxes and took care of their families. You are going to be paying their tuition very soon. Jacob knew it was the Covenant with God and you need to understand that too. If I could drill that into you, I would. But I trust that this is what the Lord is doing because you need to get this down in your spirit. If you do not have a Covenant with God, you are starting it today because you are going to bloom, in Jesus Name.<\/p>\n

The Covenant evokes one of the most powerful forces in our walk with God, which is \u2018for My Name sake<\/em>\u2019. There is almost nothing as powerful as that in my experience with walking with God. \u201cBut for the sake of my name, I brought them out of Egypt. I did it to keep my name from being profaned in the eyes of the nations among whom they lived and in whose sight I had revealed myself to the Israelites<\/em>\u201d Ez.20:9[NIV]<\/a>. \u201cFor My Name sake\u201d, everyone that walks with God understands this. Daniel knew this and when he went to God, this was his strong case. \u201cLord, listen! Lord, forgive! Lord, hear and act! For your sake, my God, do not delay, because your city and your people bear your Name<\/em>\u201d Dan.9:19[NIV]<\/a>. \u201cFor my own name\u2019s sake I delay my wrath;<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you,<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>so as not to destroy you completely\u201d<\/em> Isa.47:9[NIV]<\/a>. \u201cFor My Name sake\u201d is the source of favor and the source of grace. When you check the root of favor it is for His Name sake. I know, like everyone that understands this that every favor I have experienced has been for His Name sake. In fact, it won\u2019t be favor if it is because of my strength. If it is by my qualification then it is not favor. Every favor I have experienced is simply for His Name sake.<\/p>\n
