Prophetic Scripture:
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
Psalms 75:6-7
As we all work in our different occupations, we have to remember that the Lord is the one behind success. While hard work is expected, our success isn’t based on our efforts alone. Success comes from the Lord. No matter what you are called to do, it is not human
beings who hinder or make the way for you. Sure God uses people, but we can’t put the expectation upon them to ensure success. When we serve God and are faithful with those things He puts in our hand, no one but God or ourselves can alter our outcome. You may think that you have a boss, leader, or even business partner who is preventing you from getting ahead. However, God always has a unique way of promoting you regardless of who is on the playing field. The key is to know that God promotes diligent workers who are faithful to Him. He can take your efforts and multiply them so that no matter what seems to hinder you today, it will move aside and promotion and occupational
expansion will be yours.
Prayer:
Lord, I know that promotion only comes from You and no one can either make it happen or stop it. I trust You that in the long run You will promote me in my work. Help me to be diligent and faithful, and I place my occupational future in Your hands. Amen.
