Day 4: Pray for Promotion

Do you need breakthrough? If so, this simple prayer series, 21 More Days of Breakthrough Prayer, together with the original series, 21 Days of Breakthrough Prayer, are for you.

The Lord has led me to write 21 More Days of Breakthrough Prayer simply because the first 21 days were so powerful, but the Lord told me He isn’t done working miracles! So, we are continuing to pray through various breakthrough Scriptures each day!

Today, we are praying for promotion.

In this simple prayer series, I am sharing one Scripture verse or passage each day. I will also add bullet-point prayer directives you can use to pray through that Scripture.

I won’t be writing out actual prayers, though; I feel the Lord wants you to exercise your prayer muscles by talking to Him right out of your heart!

Our Scripture verse for Day 4 of 21 More Days of Breakthrough Prayer is Psalm 75:6-7:

“For exaltation comes neither from the east nor from the west nor from the south. But God is the Judge: He puts down one, and exalts another.” (Psalm 75:6-7).

As you pray through this Scripture today, first ask yourself this:

This passage says that exaltation (promotion) does not come from the east, the west, or the south. However, it doesn’t mention the north. Why is that?

Cool factoid: It’s because God sits “in the sides of the north” according to Psalm 48:2 and Isaiah 14:13; the sides of the north is His dwelling place. So, promotion does in fact come from the north, since it comes from God, and the north is where God sits. 🙂

Promotion comes only from God, and that’s good news.

It means God can promote you anytime He knows you’re ready, and He doesn’t have to wait for any humans to agree. Your promotion is in God’s hands and God’s alone. Hallelujah!

Pray for promotion as follows today:

• Thank God that He sees you and knows you.
• Thank Him that He sees your heart.
• Praise Him for being the only true Promoter in the entire universe! All promotion and increase comes from Him!
• Ask Father God to search your heart by His Spirit.
• Ask Him to get everything out of you that isn’t just like Him. 
• Ask Him to shape your heart and form your character, making you just like Him.
• Ask Him to change your heart; to take away your stony heart and give you His heart, and to take away your old spirit and give you His Spirit.
• Ask Him to make you promotable in His opinion!
• Ask Him to show you everything you need to work on, one thing at a time, in order to become promotable in His sight!
• Ask Him, when He is ready, to promote you into the next level of promotion that He has for you.
• Thank Him that He doesn’t have to get anybody else on board when He is ready to promote you. He doesn’t need the help of all the people who have overlooked you or forgotten you. He can promote you all by Himself!
• Thank Him and praise Him for His promotion that He is bringing you!
• Thank Him for promoting you only in His perfect time, when He knows you are ready; for promoting you too soon would hurt you, not help you.
• Thank Him that His eye is on the sparrow, and He most definitely is watching over you and perfecting ALL things that concern you!

Beloved, commit yourself and your promotion into the hands of your Father today.

Promotion can only come from Him anyway. When you look to man for promotion, you’ll be nothing but disappointed. But if you look to God, trusting Him to judge every situation fairly and promote you into whatever He knows is best, THEN you will be blessed.
