It's my prayer this year that God will lift
you to a level you've never imagined. Promotion is of God and He desires all His
children to be partakers of the same. But the challenge is that many people are
not enjoying divine lifting as they should, and when some people do they have
difficulties in sustaining it. So, what is the secret of divine lifting that
lasts for a lifetime? This post gives the fundamental components that will make
it possible.
Let this
mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God,
did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no
reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of
men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became
obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also
has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that
at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on
earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that
Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father - Philippians 2:5-11
(NKJV)
Promotion
comes from nowhere else but from God (Psalm 75:6-7). For every lifting you got
it came from God. He orchestrated it and ensured it came to pass. Do you doubt
it? Ask those who have not been promoted for a long time. God’s favour upon a
man delivers His blessings on him.
But why is
it that many lack this favour of God upon their lives? It is because they lack
the fundamental Ingredients for divine lifting! And what are these
ingredients? Let’s consider what made God to highly exalt Jesus and give Him a
name above every name.
Fundamental
ingredients
1.
No reputation
You need to empty yourself totally of whatever
you have or acquired before God. It is important to have a good reputation but
you must not allow it to hinder your progress. Before God you must remain
nobody.
