Increased Favour?

As the title cryptically implies... Can we increase in God's favor? And if so, HOW? What are the parameters of such a thing?
As you might imagine, I believe that we can and should pursue the increase of His empowering favor in our lives. This message looks at when Jesus increased in wisdom, stature, maturity, and favor with God and man. As I said in last week's description, we are in a time when it will be apparent in the NEXT season, what we have done in this and PREVIOUS seasons.
