Promotion Comes From God

Promotion is very important to some people. Have you ever noticed that people tend to act differently around those they think can do something for them — people who appear to have status, wealth or influence in life? I believe that the way we treat people is a test.

At times, God will bring people across your path that may seem insignificant. They may not appear to be able to do anything for you, but in reality, they are divinely linked to your destiny. They may hold the key to your promotion or increase. Will you treat them with respect and honor even if you think they can’t do anything for you?

The truth is the people we’re playing up to or trying to win their favor may be the ones that open a door for us, but they don’t hold the key to our destiny. Promotion doesn’t come from them. Promotion comes from God. And, God will use the most unlikely people to open doors of opportunity for you — a custodian, a maid, an intern, or an unpopular kid at school. Let’s pass the test and treat everyone as though Jesus put them in our path, because He probably did. Remember, God is watching and promotion comes from Him.

“For not from the east nor from the west nor from the south come promotion and lifting up. But God is the Judge! He puts down one and lifts up another.”  (Psalm 75:6–7, AMP)
