God’s Intended Favor

Before Adam and Eve fell from grace, both of them were intimately connected with God, and the power that flowed through Him affected every area of their lives. Their direct and immediate access to Him gave them authority over all the earth and everything in it, which automatically came with the right to command. They also had the right to speak as God speaks. They were completely dependent on Him as the source of everything they needed, and they lacked for nothing. When we realize the connection we have with our Creator, we can experience the same thing.
