Promotion Comes From the Lord
-
For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another. Psalm 75:6 KJV
During a time of revival in my own life, I fasted and prayed hard that the Lord would remove anything that was keeping me from being closer to Him. Within two weeks of praying this, I was laid off from my cushy foreman job and found myself on unemployment. When it looked like I could no longer pay the bills, I managed to get a job in a factory running a machine and sweeping the floor.
My salary went from $17 per hour to $6 and I came home black as smut every day. The boss never promoted anyone, and if you started in that position, you pretty much died there. Several people, including him, did not like me because I was 'different'. They partied all the time, came in with hangovers and then had to listen to the Bible all day from my cd player.
I did nothing special, but just tried to pray a lot, work hard and then it all happened so quickly. In three months, the foreman quit and I was promoted to his position with a raise. In six months the manager was fired and I was promoted to his position with another raise. The Bible played over the intercom all day.
Can you be promoted right where you are even if your boss hates you? Absolutely, the Lord may give you their job. Nothing on earth can hold you back from what God has for you, except you.
Prayer: Father, put me where you want me to be. Give me the promotions that you want me to have as I submit my will to You, in the name of Jesus.
Note: "This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us."

Amen1 My friend Marty came by and told me of a vision he had. I think it goes along with this writting. He said God had shown him that if we want to go where we want to go, we will have to let God be in charge. He said look at it this way. You are the passenger sitting in the front seat and the car appears to not have a driver. The car appears to be headed for a brick wall, what will you do? If we really trust God, we must hit the wall and let Him sort out what happens next. The word says all things will work out for our good. Do we really believe that?
Amen
