MoneyWalk 372 Humility Brings Promotion

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Many people try very hard to obtain promotions to the top of the ladder inside and outside of the organizations for which they work and socialize in (business, government, church, etc.). They view leadership and managerial positions as the ultimate prize, the holy grail, the prize that must be obtained if they’re to be somebody in their own eyes and those of other people. A small number make it all the way to the top and only a slightly larger number make it to managerial levels. About 90% never make it to owner, leader, manager levels that come with the highest titles, clout, pay, and benefits.

A lot of people wind up being sorely disappointed because they never reach the level they made a priority to reach. Here’s a secret: many at the higher levels also wind up sorely disappointed because they never obtain the joy, peace, and satisfaction they thought these positions would provide. Sure, they may have more material things and greater human comfort, titles, and honor from men around them but the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life from which they pursued these levels bring destructive attitudes, habits, and consequences into their lives. If only because many put pursuit and attainment of these levels at a priority above intimacy with the Lord, fellowship with the Church, and generosity toward others.

There’s nothing wrong with gaining higher education, work experience, mentoring, and relationships that can help you progress in life to higher stair steps along the way. Yet, the attitude with which you do it, the path you take, how you do it, and your feelings of thankfulness and gratitude to Him and others regardless of the level attained will either be odious to the Lord or pleasing to Him. If it’s odious and you remain in that mode unrepentant then your pursuit and the things attained work destruction in your life instead of providing the grand benefits He purposed for you. If it’s pleasing to Him, then you’ll produce just what the Master desires and receive the tremendous benefits He purposed for your life no matter the stair you land on at any point in life.

You must understand the ability to be more useful to God and helpful to other people is what makes a promotion desirable. Also, realize that promotions and levels with powerful natural and supernatural benefits come from the Lord. No matter what work you do or level you attain or do not attain, you are in the heavenly Hall of Fame when in humility your priority is to have continual intimacy with Him and follow biblical principles (His standards) for spiritual and earthly productivity. Humility leads you to present your life to Him in thanksgiving, praise, worship, prayer, bible study, regular fellowship within a local church, disciplined and fruitful work, planning via intricate knowledge of your monthly income and expenses, living beneath your income, eliminating debt, consistent saving & long-term investing, and asset diversification over time. This humble lifestyle pleases the Lord and produces true & meaningful promotion.

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 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!
