THEME:-

*PRIDE COMES BEFORE A FALL 1*

MEMORISE:-

*The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.* Psalm 10:4

READ:-

Daniel 4:29-37

29 At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon.

30 The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty?

31 While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee.

32 And they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

33 The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws.

34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:

35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

36 At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me.

37. Now I
Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.

MESSAGE:-

God made Nebuchadnezzar a great king, but pride entered into his heart, and he began to parade himself as a self-made man. God admonished him to be careful and make his way right (Daniel 4:1-27), but he didn't heed the counsel. He woke up one morning and began to boast, "Look at the empire I have built; see how far my wisdom and understanding have brought me." God looked at him from heaven and said, "Alright, mighty king, I am removing you from your kingdom. Go and join the animals in the field for seven years. Eat with them, and look like them, then we will know who is really in charge." Immediately, the king lost his senses and joined the animals in the field. After seven years, however, the merciful God restored his senses, and he praised the most High God.

*And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:* Daniel 4:34

As soon as he acknowledged the Most High as the One with all dominion and authority, the glory of his kingdom was restored to him.

*At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me.* Daniel 4:36

Romans 1:28 says that because some people chose not to retain God in their knowledge, He gave them over to a reprobate mind to do things which are not convenient. When people refuse to acknowledge God's power, might, and authority over all of creation, they begin to act like animals or even worse. For example, in recent times, we have seen men who call themselves women and have even gone as far as surgically removing their private parts so that they can appear as women, and some women doing likewise. People who engage in such depraved behaviour have failed to retain God in their knowledge and have been given over to reprobate minds.

Beloved, acknowledge God in all your ways and shun pride. Those who allow pride in any form into their hearts are only giving the devil a chance to destroy them.

KEY POINT:-

Pride debases people and makes them think and act like animals.

HYMN 18:-

PRAISE TO THE LORD, THE ALMIGHTY, THE KING OF CREATION

1 Praise to the Lord,
the Almighty, the King of creation;
O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation;
Join the great throng,
Psaltery, organ, and song,
Sounding in glad adoration.

2 Praise to the Lord, over all things He gloriously reigneth:
Borne as on eagle-wings, safely His saints He sustaineth.
Hast thou not seen,
How all thou needest hath been,
Granted in what He ordaineth?

3 Praise to the Lord, Who doth prosper thy way and defend thee;
Surely His goodness and mercy shall ever attend thee;
Ponder anew,
What the Almighty can do,
Who with His love doth befriend thee.

4 Praise to the Lord!
O let all that is in me adore Him!
All that hath breath join with Abraham's seed to adore Him!
Let the "Amen"
Sum all our praises again,
Now as we worship before Him.

THEME:-

*NEVER GIVE UP PART 2*

MEMORISE:-

*Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;* 2 Corinthians 4:1 (KJV)

READ:-

Isaiah 40:27-31

27 Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the Lord, and my judgment is passed over from my God?

28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.

29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.

30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:

31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

MESSAGE:-

Yesterday, I encouraged you not to give up on your God-given dreams. Today, I would like to show you that even if it appears as if your dreams can no longer come to pass, God can revive and restore them by His mercy.

In Matthew 4:12, Jesus promised to make Peter a fisher of men if he followed Him. Peter followed Jesus for three and a half years, but after Jesus was crucified, he returned to fishing. Thankfully, Jesus Christ, in His infinite mercy, visited him in John 21:15-17 and restored him to the path of his destiny by telling him, "Peter, feed my lambs." Then, on the Day of Pentecost, as described in Acts 2:1-4, the Holy Spirit descended upon Peter and the others who were with him. The failed fisherman suddenly became someone who won 3,000 souls to Christ after one sermon (Acts 2:41). Before long, the same Peter was speaking boldly to the rulers of the land (Acts 4:8-13), and his shadow was healing the sick (Acts 5:15-16). If God could bring Peter back to the path of fulfilling his destiny, He can do the same for anyone who has given up on his or her dreams.

At some points in our lives, we all feel weak and weary. I have also observed that people tend to feel tired and are often tempted to give up when they are on the verge of fulfilling their dreams. Don't let weariness or any sort of temptation make you abandon your dreams. Instead, at such points, cry out to God for mercy to uphold you and help you not to give up. Isaiah 40:29 says that He gives power to the faint, and to those who have no might, He increases strength. In 2 Corinthians 4:1, Paul said that as we receive mercy, we faint not. Mercy can keep you from fainting and giving up. It will keep you from turning your back on everything you have worked hard for at the edge of your breakthrough. Never allow weariness to overcome you; it was weariness that led Esau to despise his birthright (Genesis 25:29-34), and many still fall into similar costly mistakes today.

Beloved, do you feel tired and ready to give up? Cry to God for mercy. Ask him for guidance, strength, and all the help you need to fulfil His will for your life. His mercy will uphold you until you fulfil your destiny, in Jesus' name.

PRAYER POINT:-

Father, please let Your mercy empower me to keep going and not give up, in Jesus' name.

HYMN 25:-

THE GREAT PHYSICIAN NOW IS NEAR

1 The great Physician now is near,
The sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
Oh! hear the voice of Jesus.

Refrain;
Sweetest note in seraph song,
Sweetest name on mortal tongue;
Sweetest carol ever sung,
Jesus, blessed Jesus.

2 Your many sins are all forgiven,
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;
Go on your way in peace to heaven,
And wear a crown with Jesus.

3 All glory to the risen Lamb!
I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior's name,
I love the name of Jesus.

4 His name dispels my guilt and fear,
No other name but Jesus;
Oh! how my soul delights to hear
The charming name of Jesus.

THEME: NEVER GIVE UP I


MEMORISE: For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.
Proverbs 23:18


READ: Genesis 41:37-44
37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.

38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?

39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art:

40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.

41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.

42 And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;

43 And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.

44 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.


MESSAGE
Joseph is a good example of someone who never gave up despite the grave challenges that came his way. In Genesis 37:5-23, he had great dreams, but when he shared them with his brothers, they felt threatened. They conspired to kill him, but eventually agreed to sell him into slavery. This, however, did not distract Joseph. He knew he was destined for greatness, so he worked diligently until he became a leader among his fellow slaves. Then, the wife of his master tried to seduce him, and he refused her advances because he did not want to offend the God who gave him those great dreams (Genesis 39:9). He knew that as long as he didn't offend God, he would achieve his dreams. Later, the wife of his master lied against him, and he ended up in prison, where he also became a leader among his fellow prisoners. Eventually, after many years, God took him from being a prisoner to becoming the Prime Minister of Egypt within a single day. One single move from God made his dreams become a reality. If God could promote a prisoner to such an exalted position, He can take you to any height you desire.

In 1981, when I first became the General Overseer of the RCCG, I visited one of the few parishes we had in Lagos at the time. During my visit, a woman came to one of the programmes we held after it had concluded because she thought it was an evening programme.

When she came, I had left; therefore, she fell on the ground crying, "God, now I know You don't want me to have a child." She had told herself that all she needed to do was set her eyes on the man of God, and she would conceive. When people asked her why she was crying, she explained, and they told her where I would be the next day. The next morning, she came to the venue I was in, and as soon as I got up to preach, she looked at me and said, "God, thank You." That month, she became pregnant because her faith touched God. She didn't give up on what she wanted.

Beloved, don't give up. God's word to you will surely come to pass. If you hold on to the promises He has given you and continue to follow His leading, He will bring your dreams to a place of fulfilment according to His will, in Jesus' name.


KEY POINT
As long as you stay in faith and do not give up on your God-given dreams, they will come to pass.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Daniel 4-5


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE


HYMN 30: WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD
1 When we walk with the Lord
in the light of his word,
what a glory he sheds on our way!
While we do his good will,
he abides with us still,
and with all who will trust and obey.

Refrain:
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

2 Not a burden we bear,
not a sorrow we share,
but our toil he doth richly repay;
not a grief or a loss,
not a frown or a cross,
but is blest if we trust and obey.

3 But we never can prove
the delights of his love
until all on the altar we lay;
for the favor he shows,
for the joy he bestows,
are for them who will trust and obey.

4 Then in fellowship sweet
we will sit at his feet,
or we'll walk by his side in the way;
what he says we will do,
where he sends we will go;
never fear, only trust and obey.

THEME:-

*ACCELERATED AND EXTRAORDINARY PROMOTIONS*

MEMORISE:-

*For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:* 1 Corinthians 1:26

READ:-

Joshua 1:1-9 (KJV)

1 Now after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord it came to pass, that the Lord spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying,

2 Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.

3 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.

4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.

5 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.

7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest.

8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

MESSAGE:-

The word 'minister in the olden days basically referred to a servant who ran all sorts of errands for his or her master. Such errands would often include emptying and washing the master's chamber pot, doing the master's laundry, washing his feet, and the like.

While Moses was alive, Joshua was his minister, so you can imagine how shocking it must have been for the latter when God informed him that he was to become the leader of Israel after his master's demise. This is a good example of an accelerated and extraordinary promotion. The promotion was so sudden that Joshua became very anxious over the weight of his new responsibility. I know this because in today's Bible reading, God had to tell him three times to be strong and of good courage. I decree today that God will promote you in such a manner, in Jesus' name.

Whenever I see people struggling for promotion and desiring to be in leadership positions, I know it is because they do not understand God's ways. God never gives accelerated and extraordinary promotions to the wise or the qualified. He never gives it to those who think they are brilliant enough to explain the scientific permutations behind His workings. He always uses the foolish and weak things to confound the wise and mighty things (1 Corinthians 1:27). Therefore, people who think they are strong and wise enough to work out their promotion should not expect accelerated and extraordinary promotions from God because He only accelerates the promotion of those who will never take His glory for themselves.

On the day my wife and I got married at the marriage registry, we met a lady there who was dressed in a wedding gown. However, she wasn't with her groom; the man had abandoned her. The lady nearly ran mad, but she survived. After some time, she married a soldier. Unknown to her, the man who jilted her on their wedding day also joined the army. Then God moved. A military coup occurred, and her husband was made a military governor. Incidentally, the man who jilted her was assigned as her husband's aide-de-camp. Thus, anytime she wanted to enter a car, it was her former husband-to-be who would open the door for her since she was the wife of a military governor.

Beloved, I decree today that God will accelerate your promotion, and all those who have been mocking you will be confounded, in Jesus' name.

KEY POINT:-

God only accelerates the promotion of those who will not take His glory for themselves.

Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling;
Do not pass me by.

2 Let me at Thy throne of mercy,
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief.

3 Trusting only in Thy merit
Would I seek Thy face
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.

4 Thou, the spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me.
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heaven but Thee?

THEME : RAPID AND EXTRAORDINARY PROMOTIONS

Memorise:

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD’s, and he hath set the world upon them. 1 Samuel 2:8

READ: Acts 6:5, Acts 8:5-8
5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:

Acts 8:5-8

5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.

6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.

7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.

8 And there was great joy in that city.

Message

Yesterday, I stated that steady promotion is good, but extraordinary promotion is better. Today, I want to discuss rapid and extraordinary promotions.

Rapid and extraordinary promotions are great promotions that occur at an unusually high rate. For example, David was in the fields when Samuel sent for him and anointed him to be Israel’s new king (1 Samuel 16:11-13). After that, it took over a decade before he became the king of Judah (2 Samuel 2:1-4).
Another seven and a half years after that, he became king over the whole nation of Israel (2 Samuel 5:1-5). At first, he became a potential king, but then he ascended to become the king of Judah and ultimately the king of Israel.

Elisha also experienced rapid and extraordinary promotions. He started as a farmer, but when God needed a successor for Elijah, heaven recruited him and gave him rapid speed (1 Kings 19:19-21). In 2 Kings 2:9-15, God promoted him, and he became one of the greatest prophets in the Old Testament. God used him to perform several mighty miracles, far more than his predecessor, with the last miracle occurring after his death (2 Kings 13:21). He was so great that in 2 Kings 2:19-22, he lifted a curse on Jericho, a city that had been under a curse since Joshua’s time (Joshua 6:26). In 2 Kings 6:24-30, things got so bad in Samaria that women began to eat their children, but just one word from Elisha turned the situation around for good and brought economic liberation to the entire nation (2 Kings 7:1-16).

Philip was another person in the Bible who experienced rapid and extraordinary promotions. In a short while, he moved from being just a member of the congregation to becoming a deacon (Acts 6:5), and then he was promoted again to become an evangelist who brought great joy to a whole city (Acts 8:5-8). His rapid promotion came as a result of the persecution of the church in Jerusalem, which caused many of the disciples to be scattered (Acts 8:3-4). This shows that sometimes, God will use what the enemy sends to destroy you as a means of promoting you.

I have observed that when God sees that a believer has taken his or her walk with Him seriously, He shifts them from the realm of steady promotion to rapid and extraordinary promotion.
Such persons will begin to experience promotions at an unprecedented speed.

PRAYER POINT

Father, please help me to experience rapid and extraordinary promotions in all areas of my life, in Jesus’ name.

THEME:-

*FROM STEADY PROMOTION TO EXTRAORDINARY PROMOTION*

MEMORISE:-

*Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.* Psalm 37:3

READ:-

Genesis 26:1-14 (KJV)

1 And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.

2 And the Lord appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:

3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;

4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

6 And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:

7 And the men of the place asked him of his wife; and he said, She is my sister: for he feared to say, She is my wife; lest, said he, the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah; because she was fair to look upon.

8 And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.

9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she is thy wife; and how saidst thou, She is my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die for her.

10 And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done unto us? one of the people might lightly have lien with thy wife, and thou shouldest have brought guiltiness upon us.

11 And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.

12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him.

13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:

14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.

MESSAGE:-

Steady promotion happens when, if nothing goes wrong, and a fellow works diligently, he or she progresses to the next stage. After that, the fellow moves on to the next stage and continues to progress steadily. A great example of steady promotion can be seen in the case of Isaac in our Bible reading for today. There was a famine in the land, and things were really difficult. However, he obeyed God's instruction not to relocate, sowed in the land, and reaped a hundredfold return. He did not stop there; rather, he kept sowing and reaping until he waxed great. Things continued to progress steadily for him until he attained a very great height.

Steady promotions are good because they represent a slow but steady ascent. Those who experience steady promotion move predictably from point A to B, to C, and then to point D. The challenge with steady promotion, however, is that it only increases by addition, while extraordinary promotion increases by multiplication. For example, when you keep adding 2 and 2, you will need to add a lot of 2s before you can get to 2,000, while on the other hand, if you were multiplying, you would arrive at 2,000 a lot faster.

God desires for His children to progress from the realm of 'steady promotion' to that of 'extraordinary promotion' where they will experience exponential liftings that will cause people to marvel. For example, Joshua experienced steady promotion from serving as a servant to Moses (Exodus 33:11) to becoming a spy for Israel (Numbers 13:1-16). Later on, he experienced an extraordinary promotion and became Moses' appointed successor (Numbers 27:18-21) before eventually becoming the Commander of Israel (Joshua 1).

God does not just want you to have life; He wants you to have it abundantly (John 10:10). He wants you to have much more than you currently do, and He wants to make you a thousand times more than you currently are (Deuteronomy 1:11). When something jumps from one to one thousand, it is no longer operating under natural laws of progression; rather, it is operating by exponential or supernatural laws. This is the pattern that God wants your promotion to follow.

Beloved, my prayer for you is that you will begin to experience rapid and accelerated extraordinary promotions in all areas of your life, starting from today, in Jesus' name.

KEY POINT:-

Steady promotions are good, but God desires that you also experience extraordinary promotions.

HYMN 20:-

I'M PRESSING ON THE UPWARD WAY

1 I'm pressing on the upward way,
New heights I'm gaining everyday;
Still praying as I onward bound,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

Chorus:
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven's table-land;
Where love, and joy, and light abound,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

2 My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My constant aim is higher ground.

3 Beyond the mist I fain would rise,
To rest beneath unclouded skies,
Above earth's turmoil peace is found
By those who dwell on higher ground.

4 I long to scale the utmost height,
Though rough the way, and hard the fight,
My song, while climbing, shall resound
Lord, lead me on to higher ground.

5 Lord, lead me up the mountain side
I dare not climb without my Guide
And, heaven gained, I'll gaze around,
With grateful heart from higher ground.

READ:-

1 Samuel 2:7-9 (KJV)

7 The Lord maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.

MESSAGE:-

When I was studying for my Master's degree, there was a young man who was working in a professor's office as a messenger. In those days, there were no mobile phones, so whenever someone called the office phone to speak with the professor, the boy would answer the phone first before taking it to the professor. Most times, however, whenever he answered the phone, the people on the other end of the call would say, "Prof," thinking it was the professor who had answered. After some time, the boy began to call himself 'Prof,' and people joined in, jokingly calling him the same. One day, he said to himself, "Hey, I know that people jokingly call me 'Prof, but I can really become a professor." By the time I left the University of Lagos as a lecturer, he was already studying for his PhD.

Today's Bible reading says that God can lift beggars from the dunghill and sit them among princes. I can relate to this because I had no shoes for the first 18 years of my life, yet by God's special grace, I have met many heads of state and engaged in lengthy conversations with them. The same God who promoted me can also promote you, if you surrender all to Him.

Some people experience what can be called 'normal' promotions in life. A good example of this is when people make steady progress in their careers. They might get salary increases once every year, and as they work hard, they get promoted once every five years. While this is good, I know that God has greater plans for His children. In John 10:10, Jesus said that He came to the earth that we might have life and have it more abundantly. God wants you to enjoy promotion that is beyond normal; He wants you to enjoy supernatural promotion. David was someone who experienced supernatural promotion. One day, he was on the field tending his father's sheep, and the next day, the Ultimate Promoter arranged for him to be anointed as a king (1 Samuel 16:11-13).

Beloved, the key to experiencing supernatural promotion is to humble yourself before God and live in total obedience to Him. When you do this, He will exalt you in due time and crown your life with His glory (1 Peter 5:6). I pray that the Ultimate Promoter will give you a supernatural promotion before the end of this year, in Jesus' name.

PRAYER POINT:-

Father, I ask for supernatural promotion in every area of my life, in Jesus' name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:- Ezekiel 41-43

HYMN 27:-

WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS

1 What a Friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
O, what peace we often forfeit,
O, what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!

2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
Take it to the Lord in prayer!.
Can we find a Friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
Take it to the Lord in prayer!

3 Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge,
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
Do thy friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His arms He'll take and shield you;
You will find a solace there.
