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.

PROSPERITY BUILT ON WICKEDNESS

Image
Today, the Holy Spirit is asking you if your prosperity is built on wickedness.It is dangerous to prosper through wickedness. One of my church members was delivered from being hooked by evil prosperity when he was offered a huge amount of money to defraud his organization. He refused to be part of the deal because he knew the spiritual implication of being unequally yoked with the wicked  (2 Corinthians 6:14-18) . The love of wealth makes a lot of people ignore God’s counsel, with devastating consequences. Such wealth will eventually grow wings and fly away.  Proverbs 13:22  says that a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous. In other words, if you manage to gather wealth by stealing, lying or other acts of wickedness, the Lord is saying that He will take that wealth from you and give it to the righteous. Are you tempted to gather wealth through acts of wickedness or enjoying wealth obtained through sin? God is saying to you today that He is willing to prosper you, but yo

WHERE DO YOU STAND?

No Servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despised the other. You cannot serve God and Mammon.---- Luke 16:15 Presently the world is full of hypocrisy and self deception. There are lots of people two-timing between God and the devil. The Lord Jesus Christ made it clear in the book of Revelation that those who are not hot/cold will he spit out of his mouth.  You need to answer this question, “Where do I stand”? You can never be on a neutral ground. It’s either you are on the Lord’s side or on the Devil’s side. Meanwhile, it is impossible to be on both sides. Hypocrisy and self deception will never do you any good. When you are on the Lord’s side, he will fight for you and give you lasting peace. Your problems will then become his problems and he will create solution for you. He will move you from the valley to the mountain and anoint you with fresh oil. Anything that is not of God is o

YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE TO BE SAVED

Image
“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
