Grace and Favor: Restoring Your Throne of Glory
Apostle Dr. Michael Mband Message Summary
In a powerful message shared on Heaven Today, Apostle Dr. Michael Mbandi inspires believers to understand and reclaim their God-given destiny, grace, favor, and authority as co-heirs with Christ. He emphasizes that every child of God is created to reign and sit on their "throne of glory," a spiritual place of rulership and
influence that many have lost sight of or been dethroned from.
Restoring Destiny and Throne of Glory
Apostle Mbandi begins by quoting 1 Samuel 2:8 and Revelation 5:10, reminding believers that God has made us kings and priests, destined to reign on earth. Our spiritual throne represents our relevance and authority in the spirit realm. When dethroned, a believer becomes irrelevant, and their words lose power. He draws analogies from nature, like lions fighting for dominance in their pride, pointing out that spiritual strength and reign require continuous fight and restoration through prayer and fasting.
The Importance of Grace
Grace is essential for occupying this throne. Apostle Mbandi highlights Paul's declaration in 1 Corinthians 15:10 that it is by God's grace that he was empowered to labor abundantly. Grace enables believers to walk in power and influence, beyond natural strength or talent. Without grace, no spiritual authority can be sustained.
Favor for Special Assignments
He explains that God's favor goes beyond blessings of wealth or restoration it includes favor for special assignments. Using biblical examples like Mary and Esther, he teaches that special favor equips believers to fulfill unique divine purposes. This favor positions believers to be used by God in moments where they are needed most to carry out His plans.
Speed in Answered Prayer
Apostle Mbandi stresses the need to pray for speed in answered prayer, which brings restoration and breakthrough in believers' lives. Using scriptures like Isaiah 58:8 and Psalms 143:7-8, he explains that God's kingdom operates with acceleration and swift fulfillment of promises. Speed saves time, spares believers embarrassment, and restores lost years. He encourages believers to stay on course, remain persistent, and expect rapid answers from God.
Call to Action
The message closes with a passionate call to occupy one's throne of glory through fervent prayer, fasting, and faith in God's grace and favor. Apostle Mbandi urges believers not to settle for small miracles but to pursue the highest spiritual rank with authority to reign with Christ. When seated on the throne, believers will have heavenly angels assigned to implement their words promptly, making them effective spiritual leaders. This anointed teaching from Apostle Dr. Michael Mbandi reminds all believers of their royal heritage and destiny to reign. It challenges Christians to reclaim their place of power through grace, favor, and persistent prayer for speed in breakthrough. This message empowers the Church to move from survival to dominion in their spiritual walk.
