Doors are always closed to those who take their destiny for granted. God will never invest in, select, and recommend a filthy man, who lacks character for a 360-degree turnaround. How could God allow a filthy and dirty woman to carry and pass her lifestyle to baby Jesus through the umbilical cord? No enduring promotion comes from the east, west, and south but from God and He demotes and uplifts as He desires. Those who see and seek promotion as a do-or-die affair don’t enjoy the rest it offers; pay the price, prepare, and wait to take your delivery. Don’t teach your children that you can control and alter the time and seasons; you cannot run, jump, and circumvent God when it’s not your turn. You need to remind yourself daily that your status and achievements of today can never determine what God wants to do and the extent you will reach.
