ENJOYING WELL-BEING THROUGH WELL-DOING
GOD’S WAYS FOR PROMOTION
Dear conqueror in Christ:
I seize this awesome opportunity to open your eyes on some practical steps God makes available to you to gain promotion in your life. Indeed we all seek to advance in position and in rank in all our endeavors. The Lord himself promises to prosper the righteous affirming in his word: ”Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in obedience to him. You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.“ (Psalms 128:1-2). What we need to keep in mind is that promotion depends a great deal on our thought patterns and behavior. Let’s look at the plan laid out for our promotion in God’s word.
The simple fact is if you want to be promoted, you must do things that get noticed. This principle is visible in the life of some biblical characters. David’s performance, for instance, is noticeable : ”Whatever Saul asked him to do, David did it so successful that Saul gave him a high rank in the army.“(1 Sam 18:5). Secondly you must be diligent like Jeroboam. When “ Solomon saw how well the young man did his work, he put him in charge of the whole labor force of the tribes of Joseph.“ (1 Kings 11:28). Finally strive for excellence: ”Do you see someone who excel in his work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank.“ (Prov 22:29). Use then these principles to rise and enjoy promotion God’s way.
