DIVINE PROMOTION

It is God that gives a man a permanent raise in life. God is always in the business of lifting His children to a higher position or rank, contributing immensely to their growth and prosperity, both physically and spiritually.

For exaltation comes neither from the east nor from the west nor from the south but God is the judge, He puts down one, and exalts another(Psalms 75:6-7)

Promotion from God can come in various ways and forms. For example- a job seeker that suddenly has job opportunities or an employee that becomes an employer, a barren woman becoming a mother of Children, a beggar becoming a giver, a tenant becoming a landlord, singles becoming married. It can still be God moving you from the backside of the desert, from obscurity to prominence in your family, business, career or ministry as He did for David, Moses, Joseph, and Peter in the Scripture. God’s promotion can be physical and or spiritual. For example salvation, endowed with Holy Spirit gifts or ministry gifts.


WHY RELY ON GOD TO PROMOTE YOU?

The Lord is high above all nations, His glory is above the heavens, and He dwells on high perpetually. (Psalms 113:4-5) He is the God of all mankind, there is nothing too hard for Him to do (Jeremiah 32:17,27) He is the El-Shaddai, the All-sufficient God (Genesis 17:1) The Lord is strong and mighty. He is mighty in battle (Psalms 24:8) God’s power is without limit- He is able to do exceedingly abundantly, above all you can think or imagine. (Ephesians.3:20) He is not limited in His work of creation (Matt.3:9). Nothing He does baffles or tires Him (Isaiah 40:28). God has the ability to do all His Holy will, He has the power over His entire nature (universe): over man, over angels, over Satan, over death, rulers or authorities. There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that God does not have control or power over, either now or later. (Revelation 20:14).

With the afore mentioned reasons, I want to charge you to relax because your miracle, promotion, lifting and advancement is on the way. Your present situation or circumstances not withstanding, His everlasting arm will reach you for lifting even as you read this message in Jesus name.


WHAT TO DO FOR YOUR PROMOTION TO BE ESTABLISHED

1. Hold on to God for His promises, knowing fully well that God is not a liar, He will do what He says and what He wants to do He will say it ahead of time.

2. Have the confidence that you will be promoted and established in accordance to His divine will and purpose for your life.

3. Do not be discouraged when the devil and people rise against you because it must surely happen. The devil and man does not want others to progress, it is God that works it out in you. So be determined to be raised and lifted. Think, sleep, talk, walk, act success, exaltation and lifting.

4. Walking in obedience to God (Deuteronomy 28:1-2).

5. Be sensitive to the leading and guidance of the Holy Spirit as to what to do to be lifted up.

6. Commitment and dedication to God’s course, work and jealousy for His kingdom and Name as exhibited by Shadrach, Meschach, Abednego and Daniel.

7. Living a holy, sanctified and righteous life is a must. Righteousness exalts and promotes. (Proverbs 14:34).

8. HUMILITY- The Bible says humble yourself under God’s mighty hand and He will lift you up (James 5:10)

9. Be an incurable soul winner; put your gifts and talents into use. (Luke 19:11-19)

10. Be diligent in your work, in the place of prayer and worship of God.


WHAT CAN KEEP YOU DOWN

1. Walking in disobedience to God.

2. Pride and not honouring God in your life.

3. Unbelief, doubt, complacency and procrastination.

4. Despising and criticizing those that are being promoted or lifted up around you.

5. Outright activities of Satan and the agents of darkness who never wish you well.

6. Sin of any kind or any form will make you to be debased. So flee from every appearance of evil.

You are in this season of exaltation, favour and the mercy that flow from God’s throne of grace. It is our prayer that you will not miss your promotion in Jesus’ name. Your neighbours and relations shall celebrate with you this year because the Almighty God will surely lift you up.

SEE YOU ON THE TOP.
