THE SURE SOURCE OF PROMOTION

For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. Psalm 75:6
Read: Psalm 113:1-9 (KJV)

The promotion that comes from God is worth waiting for; never settle for the promotion of men. Man can promote you today and demote you the next day. When man promotes you, they will expect something in return, but when God promotes you, all your sorrows will turn to joy and you will have absolute peace even in the midst of trouble. God’s promotion usually shuts the mouth of detractors. Your detractors are those who boasted that you would never rise in their presence, and those who threatened that they would use the power of their position to destroy you, because you have refused to bow to their gods. They are those who, because of your uncompromising conviction, have said they will never recommend you for promotion as long as they are on the seat of power. The sure source of promotion. I have good news for you: by this time tomorrow, their promotion will be at your mercy in Jesus’ Name. They will never be able to carry out their mischievous plans against you in Jesus’ Name. Concerning such people, the word of God in Psalm 21:11 says,
“For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.”
When God promotes you, you will go from success to success. This is why you need to make Him your ally.  You need to come to Him, and let Him take over your life. Open Heavens Devotional 2017. The Lord’s decision is always final. If He decides to promote you, no man can demote you. If He says this is your season, no accuser can deny you access. If He decides to bless you, no curse can prevail over you. All you need to do is to ensure His presence never departs from your life. There is someone reading this Devotional: by the time God starts with you, the whole world will be amazed. God promoted Joshua from being a massager to the position of a commander. When God told him to take over the mantle of leadership from Moses and lead the children of Israel to the Promised Land, Joshua thought God was joking. God had to reassure him repeatedly that as He was with Moses, He would be with Him (Joshua 1:5-9, Joshua 3:7). Irrespective of how forceful the opposition confronting you is, when God is promoting you, He will cause you to experience certain blessings that will make all your enemies crumble. You will be able to do things you never thought you could do. However, God will not promote a person who is just folding his hands doing nothing. It is the soul of the diligent that will be made fat (Proverbs 13:4). If you are a hardworking person, God will reward you. God does not bless the lazy. What you sow is what you reap. If you want to soar, you have to go the extra mile and be a benchmark in the lifestyle of holiness and excellence.
culled from open heavens by Pastor E.A Adeboye
How can you live a life of excellence without JESUS? To get true divine promotion from above, you need to accept Jesus Christ into your life today.Do not procrastinate or shift it to tomorrow.Today is your day of salvation, you do not know what may happen tommorrow. To be sincere with you friend, HEAVEN is real and HELL is real! Accept Jesus Christ today to live a fulfilled life here on earth and afterwards.
If you are ready to accept him, say this word of prayer: Lord Jesus, i am willing and ready to accept you into my life as my Lord and saviour,please forgive me my sins and iniquities,give me a new heart andd let me serve you to the end. In Jesus name I pray.

YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE TO BE SAVED

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16 (KJV) The only person Jesus cannot help is the person who refuses to believe. That is the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. The blasphemy of unbelief. The blasphemy of the Holy Spirit can neither be forgiven in this world nor in the world to come because Jesus says I am your saviour and you say you don’t believe in Him. What do you want Him to do? Save you by force? You have to believe to be saved. The blank cheque has been given. The whole world is technically saved but the reality is that it is for those who have believed. “If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth” (Mark 9:23 KJV). What are the things? The things that have been threatening your life. The things that have been harassing you. The things that have been giving you sleepless nights. What are the things? The things you have been w

Recieving Urgent Response to your Prayers

Isaiah 65:24 :- “Before they call, I will answer.”  This is a testimony written  by a doctor who worked in Africa.  One night I had worked hard to help a mother in the labor ward; but in spite of all we could do, she died, leaving us with a tiny, premature baby and a crying two-year-old daughter. We would have difficulty keeping the baby alive; as we had no incubator (we had no electricity to run an incubator). We also had no special feeding facilities.Although we lived on the equator, nights were often chilly with treacherous drafts. One student midwife went for the box we had for such babies and the cotton wool that the baby would be wrapped in.       Another went to stoke up the fire and fill a hot water bottle. She came back shortly in distress to tell me that in filling the bottle, it had burst (rubber perishes easily in tropical climates).  “And it is our last hot water  bottle!” she exclaimed. As in the West, it is no good crying over spilled milk, so

TREADING THE DANGEROUS PATH

“ 1. My son, pay attention to my wisdom, lend your ear to my understanding 2. That you may preserve discretion, and your lips may keep knowledge 3. For the lips of an immoral woman drip honey, and her mouth is smother than oil. 4. But in the end, she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two edged sword. 5. Her feet go down to death, her steps lay hold of hell. 6. Lest you ponder her path of life, her ways are unstable, you do not know them. 7. Therefore, hear me now, my children, and do not depart from the words of my mouth. 8. Remove your way far from her, and do not go near the door of her house. 9. Lest you give your honor to others, and your years to the cruel one 10. Lest aliens be filled with your wealth, and your labors go to the house of a foreigner, 11.   And you mourn at last, when your flesh and blood are consumed, 12. And say, how I have hated instruction, and my heart despised correction! 13. I have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor incl
