How can we earn promotion? III

Greetings to you, dear readers of “Daily Word for Spiritual Edification”! May God bless you and keep you from all evil this day! Today we will continue talking about God’s promotion.We already saw that exaltation and promotion come into person’s life if he is obedient to God and walks in the light of God’s Word. God desires to exalt every on of His children. He wants to pour out heavenly gifts, His provision and life on His loved ones. But there are some things that cause one person to be exalted and another one to fall. Let’s read from the Holy Scripture.
“By humility and fear of the LORD are riches and honour and life” (Proverbs, 22:4).
“Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs, 16:18).
“Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, and before honour is humility” (Proverbs, 18:12).
God has set particular order in His Kingdom; there are some principles that the Kingdom of God is based on: humble people open for themselves the grace of walking in the fear of the Lord and they experience riches, honour and full life from God, – the Word of God says so. Prideful and haughty sooner or later are humbled and their life is filled with falls and destruction.If we desire God’s promotion we need to walk in humility and obedience to God. So many people after they get promoted become unapproachable, unsociable, and haughty. Quite often God returns them back to where they were before the promotion. It is something that happens all over the world.God very often takes a humble person who is unknown to broader public and exalts him in one day. God sees a humble heart. If you stay modest, teachable and humble, God cannot circumvent His principles. He is looking for humble people all over the world so that He could exalt and promote them.Whatever is your position and situation in this life, – fear God! He is fully capable to exalt or to humble. God desires for you to become a person that is worthy of God’s exaltation, so fear God! Keep the fear of the Lord and humility in your heart and then God’s blessings and His promotion will not end in your life.May God help you to understand this truth today, so that you can become a candidate for God’s promotion!God bless you! Till tomorrow!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • Your gift will make room for you

    Today I would like to start talking about the topic I have titled as: “Your gift will make room for you”. The Word of God says: «A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men» (Proverbs, 18: 16).Your gift will make room for you and will broaden your boarders, if you won’t hide it. So many times believers ask: «Where is my place in the Body of Christ? What is my calling?»Do what you know. This simple principle gives an answer to many questions. Find the thing that you know how to do; find what you can do to promote the Kingdom of God, to help the church to grow and to extend your influence in the society.

    Your tomorrow is the outcome of your today´s efforts and time you spend. Your today impacts your tomorrow, therefore, you better prepare yourself for tomorrow, use your time to develop yourself, building up your character and skills. If you disobey God today, you will not be able to enter your promised land tomorrow, due to the cruelty of your heart. If you take care for today, God will take care for your tomorrow then.
  • Piety

    Many people have learned to call upon the name of God, but they do not have a slightest idea of the fear of the Lord. It is very important to understand that our provision depends not only on our ability to call upon God, but also on the level of the fear of God in our lives.My lifestyle is what determines the power of my prayers. Anyone who calls upon God must also fear God, – and that is what it means to call upon God in truth.«The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth» (Psalm, 145: 18).
  • Faith in Jesus is the only thing that can reverse the consequences of the fall

    “And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin” (1 John, 3:5).Jesus came to take our sins; otherwise we would not be able to escape the tragedies, misery and death. Praise God that He sent Jesus into the world! Jesus is the proof of God’s love for us. If God wanted to do us evil, then He would have never sent Jesus to us.
  • Life is a Purpose

    God has created each of you for a certain purpose. God has a common purpose and a personal (individual) purpose for each of us. Our common goal is to glorify the Lord. However, God also has a peculiar purpose He has created every individual to fulfill. I was sent to the Earth to solve certain problems. If you are driven by such awareness you will live a strategical life. Each of you has a certain goal and a purpose set by God.
