Promotion Is The Avenue By Which Favor Expresses Itself. |

"Please, take this as a seed for your business," the honey-haired woman wrote on the note to her brother, tucking the antique necklace securely inside the envelope, praying for favor, a harvest, and most of all, her younger brother. Seven Years Later: "There's more jewelry here than most antique stores have," the woman told her daughters, opening box after box, all colors, shapes, sizes, and styles. "Where did all this jewelry come from?" one of the woman's daughters questioned, intrigued by the sheer massiveness of it all. "From your uncle, my brother," the woman pondered, finally remembering that day long ago when love, and God, told her to send one necklace to her brother, to help him succeed. Favor is an intriguing aspect of life. It is the desire within an individual to help another succeed. Over the years of ministry, I noticed that promotion and favor go hand in hand. Coming from one who has had many employees in my care and under my authority, I can say that although one may get the job done, it does not guarantee them a promotion. The missing ingredient is favor from both man and God. In the Gospel of Luke, we learn that Jesus grew in favor with both God and man. You can actually increase favor on your life. You can grow the desire in another to help you succeed. How do we increase favor on our life? The favor of God rests upon your life if you look to please God through submitting and bringing pleasure to your boss, spouse, pastor, or any authority God places in your life. Once the favor comes, promotion is soon to follow. May the world one day hear of the promotion God brings into your life. |
