ISAIAH 61:1–2  "The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.  He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn"

Isaiah said it was the year of the Lord’s favor.  Not next year.  Not five years.  Not in the Sweet By and By.  This is the year God will shift things in your favor.  He is lining it all up.  What you could not make happen on your own, God will cause you to accomplish.  It will be bigger than you thought.  It will happen quicker than you imagined, and it will be more rewarding than you ever dreamed possible.

One touch of God’s favor can get you to where you’re supposed to be.  The truth is, you are one shift from seeing a dream come to pass.  One shift from paying your house off.  One shift from seeing your health improve.  One shift from meeting the right person.
