There is a God-ordained platform for your promotion, locate it and maximize it.The difficult experience you have to go through can also turn out to be the platform that God will use to showcase you for a great lifting.The place of your assignment is the place of your promotion.If you learn to deploy God's giftings in your life appropriately,you will stand out significantly.God will always show you ideas and gifts inside of you that are way bigger than you. They are often bigger than what you could have ever dreamed of or expected, and that is great because it means you will need Him to bring them to pass. All you have to do is trust and believe God and what He has for you. Genesis39:21; Psalm20:7-8; 75:6-7; Genesis41:1-45; Habakkuk3:19; 1Peter5:6; Ephesians4:7; Proverbs 18:16; 2 Timothy 1:6-7; Isaiah 50:4. 

Being able to have the right partnership will enable us to deliver on our mandate.Be wise in identifying the right set of individuals that will contribute positively and immensely to your God-given dreams and vision.There is a partnership that will lead you to greatness and there is a partnership that will lead you along the path of regret.Partnership is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishment toward organized objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.Make God's partnership your greatest asset. 1 Corinthians 3:6-9; Luke22:28; 2Corinthians 6:14;  2 Samuel23:8-39; Philippians1:3-8; Acts4:36-37; Exodus17:8-13; Colossians 4:7-17; Romans 16:1-27; Nehemiah 2:1-20. 

If you allow the Lord to be the all in all, the centre of all,then you will experience complete joy and God's remarkable sufficiency. Take the back seat and let him take the front line, steering the wheel in full control.When we struggle to give up control, it’s usually out of fear of the unknown.The moment the struggle cease, the dots begin to connect.Give him the preeminent place in your life, and you will have your portion among the most eminent in his sight.Let go and let God.When Jesus increases, joy increases.Because Christ is supreme, nothing else should distract us from him. We must get rid of anything that keeps us from glorifying Christ.Often in our lives, Christ is marginalized. John3:30; 5:19; Colossians1.15-18;2:10; Isaiah45:9; Zechariah3:7; Luke22:42; Psalm 32:8. 

The drive within us to succeed, lead, and achieve can trip us up,unless we frequently check our motivation and methods.It's not merely what's on the outside that counts, but what is on the inside that leads to what we do on the outside. Our motives matter because God cares more about who we are becoming than what we are achieving.Motives give meaning to our behaviors.One of the best ways to keep our motives pure is to ask God to show us the real reasons we do the things we do.Motives are invisible, but they are the truest test of character.What you plan to accomplish is not as important as your motive and the method you have adopted.Check your motives and methods in the light of scriptural standards.In God's view the end doesn't justify the means, rather the means will be judged in the end. Psalm26:2; Proverbs16:2; Matthew 15:8-9; 1Samuel 16:7; 18:17-29; 1Timothy1:5; 2Timothy2:5; 1Corinthians 9:24-27; Genesis4:1-12.

Never stand in the way of a good/godly course. Locate a place for your role in the course and be a huge and unforgettable, positive difference.Find a good course and make it work.Don't stand in the way of progress, instead, be a catalyst for progress.Be more focused on value added living by promoting the good/godly course others are pursuing. Find a way to be a pillar of strength and support.One of the greatest things we can do in life is to form the habit of adding value to everyone we come in contact with, instead of diminishing them and the good course to which they are called,and for which they passionately labour. Nehemiah 2:1-20; Romans16:1-27;14:13; Luke22:28-30;8:1-3; 3John1:8; 1Chronicles12:1-40; Isaiah57:14; 1Corinthians3:9; 2 Corinthians 6:1. 

To get the most meaningful experience out of any relationship, we must respect boundaries and acknowledge the most obvious. Boundaries are what keep us in balance, as well as in bounds. Boundaries are the key to good relationships. Boundaries are the key to good stewardship and a productive life. In a real sense, boundaries define us. They define what is me and what is not me. Boundaries show us what we are responsible for and what we are not responsible for. Boundaries help us keep the good in our lives and the bad out of our lives. God is a God of boundaries. In the very beginning, he gave boundaries to Adam and Eve. The tree of 'the knowledge of good and evil' was a boundary. Setting and respecting boundaries enables us to blossom meaningfully. Don't take any relationship for granted. Genesis 2:17; 3:1-24;39:6-9; Proverbs 22:3,28; 23:10; 25:17; Galatians 2:21; Philippians 2:6; 2 Samuel 6:16-23.
