MoneyWalk 159 The Promotion You Want
This program will help you undo financial bondage.
Be committed to God's money management principles, don't be envious of other people's promotions, and keep doing what the bible shows will glorify God and serve other people. Then, He will promote you throughout life. Some promotions will ultimately come from Him through other people, yet many more will come as positive consequences (rewards) of following biblical principles.
You’re right to think your employer should appreciate your hard work. However, you cannot make any employer respond with appreciation. Unfortunately, many won’t respond in the way you want them to or the way they should. Let your godly actions and responses influence your employer and supervisors, but most importantly rely on the LORD to promote you at the proper time.
He can move on people’s hearts at just the right time. Trust Him and be patient allowing Him to work things out on your behalf and don’t try to force yourself into a promotion. You certainly can ask for and pursue other opportunities available, especially when He speaks and tells you to do so. Most of all you should (a) continue to complete work assignments with excellence, (b) show proper respect for your supervisors and co-workers, and (c) show continual initiative and creativity toward enhancing products and services. Your employer, vendors, and/or clients will see your true value and in due time want to promote you in some way.
Sometimes, you fail to see the promotion you’ve received because you’re only considering what you think man should have done for you. Or, you think you should've received a larger raise or should have been given a prestigious title or a corner office. Be aware that promotions come in many different forms and are sometimes not so easy to see unless you’re looking through spiritual eyes.
The Lord has shown many people how to manage their incomes according to biblical principles long before supervisors promoted them. In a few short years, they eliminated all debt including home mortgages and were well on their way to becoming wealthy far beyond what they naturally envisioned years earlier. Some moved on to start successful businesses. During this time, those they thought should have been instrumental in promoting them didn’t do anything special for them. They were in reality promoted by the Lord due to their willingness to properly manage money and relationships entrusted to them.
The Lord’s promotion process stores treasures in Heaven that you have access to when you need them or when He desires to give them to you. Don't think more highly of yourself than you ought to! God has the master plan for your life and He's more pleased and you have more peace and joy when you follow His plan. You can only obtain the greatest treasure by (a) working as unto the LORD, (b) using biblical financial principles, and (c) being patient allowing the Lord to make ample room in the marketplace for your abilities and skill to produce rewards as you utilize them and glorify Him.

The book at the link below provides principles and practical steps that help you use the Power To Get Wealth. By 1992, we had $135,000 of debt and a negative $35,000 net worth. Financial bondage and turmoil led me to seek principles and a process for employing good stewardship. As a result, we became constructively debt-free in 1998, mortgage free January 2004, millionaires in 2012, multi-millionaires shortly thereafter, and retired in 2018 in my mid-fifties from public servant jobs while giving abundantly to fund the gospel of our LORD Jesus Christ. The same power is available to you!
