1. “The Appointed Time of Favor” Bishop Earnest L. Palmer Sunday, July 17, 2011(Preached in Huntsville, Ala.)

2. Psalm 102:18 (NKJV) “You will arise and have mercy on Zion;For the time to favor her, Yes, the set time, has come.

3. QUESTION TO PONDER When you look at the church--- Is God Pleased with what we have been configured to resemble?

4. There is a challenge to the authenticity of the Church.

5. When favor comes, TWO (2) things happen: What was wrong will be mitigated There are some people who will be upset when you’re blessed

6. When favor comes, you are no longer minimized. When favor comes, you are no longer marginalized.

7. The appointed time of God for my favor is when He gets His glory.

8. Because we don’t deserve it, God has authorized favor.

9. My favor has already been authorized.

10. History has shown when favor has been granted, no one knows WHEN it will come but God. But, the recipient of the favor can be assured FAVOR already authorized WILL COME
