In every normal human being, there is always a desire to step up or to be better than before; if one is not making room for improvement, it means that Satan has convinced such to be less of human.
The way to step up is not in the accumulation of things but in the giving up of things. Man must live according to the standard that the Lord has set for him (Philippians 3:12-15); and because every man desire improvement, all improvements must be inside the frame of God’s work.
Stepping up must be on God, by God, through God, and for God (Luke 12:16-19); if stepping up does not make a man grow in God and improve in his spiritual life, it is not an upgrade. Any promotion or exaltation that God does not give, cannot be sustained (Psalms 75: 6-9). The best step up is one that is done in godliness; you cannot step up in God and not see the effects in every area of your life.
