Secondly, expect new chapters of <strong>Promotion<\/strong>. <!--more-->Yesterday, we said that there are two main pointers to this. When God wants to promote you, the first thing He does is He gives you a <em>Burden<\/em>. And that is what we see in Nehemiah\u2019s story. He was just a servant boy who God gave the burden for His house, an entire nation, Jerusalem. Nehemiah eventually became the governor of Judah, which was a huge promotion. Meanwhile, many people are praying to be \u201cgovernors of Judah\u201d, but God is giving them burdens for \u201cJudah\u201d. But they don\u2019t want the burden; they just want the title. God is saying to you that a door of promotion is opening to you.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, Moses had a burden to see God\u2019s people free, and his burden led him to do several things. But at the end of the day, Moses became the leader of God&#8217;s people. Many people are praying to be leaders, but God is giving them burdens. Pay attention to burdens, to things you are burdened with, because most times it is a door to your promotion. When God wants to promote you, He first gives you a burden, and this is the first thing about promotions. The second thing that happens when God opens a new chapter of promotion is <em>Problem Solving<\/em>. And this is so powerful. Daniel kept solving problems for kings until he was sorted. I pray that God will give you the right burdens in the Name of Jesus. I also pray that God will give you the solution to the problems of the right people in the Name of Jesus.<\/p>\n<p>The people you solve problems for determine a lot. Like Daniel, David also solved problems for kings, case in point, Saul. Inherent in problem solving are supernatural abilities. It is good to pray for favour, and you have favour already anyway in Jesus Name. But most times, it is about capacity because if you have favour and you don&#8217;t have capacity, you are going to create a problem. Favour can take you to places, but if you do not have the capacity to stay in those places, it is a problem. You want to sit with kings, great. Favour opens the door for you to be seated with kings. They are talking, but when you open your mouth, they are forced to wonder how you got there. The next command they issue is for such a person to be removed.<\/p>\n<p>I pray that that will not be your story in the Name of Jesus. When you find yourself in the presence of kings and you open your mouth, they will all be amazed and they will say, &#8220;Where has this person been since?&#8221; That is the story of the child of God, your story.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Prayer<\/strong>: Father, as You give me burdens for Your will, give me the ability to solve complex problems in the Name of Jesus. Amen!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nehemiah 1:3-4 \u201c\u2026The exile survivors who are left there in the province are in bad shape. Conditions are appalling.
