THE SPIRIT MEAT DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY REV AND REV (MRS) AREOGUN, TUESDAY, 25TH, NOVEMBER, 2014 TOPIC: TEST TIME, PROMOTION TIME GENESIS 22:1; PROVERBS 4:18 God has marked out a plan of persistent promotion for you. He has a package of increasing glory for His children. See Prov. 4:18 KJV “But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day”. Job 8:7, “Though my beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase”. But God has a principle, the principle of promotion. “NO ONE GETS LIFTED OR PROMOTED WITHOUT PASSING A TEST.” It is a law of the justice of God. So, when it is time for you to go to another level in God, any new level of increase – financial, marital, spiritual etc. will be proceeded by tests. God allow tests to come our way because it is promotion time! See Abraham in Genesis 22:1, “And it came to pass after these things , that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham, and he said, Behold, here I am”. God allowed a test because it was time to finalize the covenant with Abraham. When trials come your way, when you are tempted as it were or when tests come, it is not because God hates you, in fact, it is not so that you can stumble, it is so that you can rise and change to a higher dimension of glory. Tests are our time signal that promotion is around the corner! All you need to do is to prepare to pass the test. Students don’t conclude that the school is an oppressor because of exams. No; they read, pass and move on to the next level. When tests, trials, temptations come, let the stuff of faith come out of your spirit, face it, go through and emerge a winner! PRAYER Holy Spirit, please help me to be sensitive to the times of tests meant for my promotion. Help me to get them right and pass them in Jesus’ name. Amen DAILY BIBLE READING Daniel 1:1-2:23, 1 Peter 3:8-4:6, Psalm 119:65-80, Proverbs 28:14 spiritmeat.net lifeoasisinternationalchurch.org/streaming
