“This I know: the favor that brings promotion and power doesn’t come from anywhere on earth, for no one exalts a person but God, the true judge of all. He alone determines where favor rests. He anoints one for greatness and brings another down to his knees” (Psalm 75:6-7, TPT)
You are positioned with purpose, assignment, and a plan. You have inherited a wealth. Your position is a gift. Among those positioned this way, some think they did it… think that they achieved this position. Others, not positioned well at all but not willing to remain on the sidelines either, observably elbow their way in, insisting their place and position from God will not be denied.
Always, Jesus is the example. He chose the Spirit’s leading and, therefore, the Father’s will. Jesus came for that very purpose to do the Father’s will. Your choosing brings the same Spirit and leading and the same supernatural way of life He demonstrated. His example of humility is key. Besides inheritance from those who have gone before, you are positioned well because of His life’s example and His Spirit’s lead.
Consider what you will invest into this position of yours. Never forget the rock from which you were hewn—the place where you were nurtured and carved out, your launching place. Invest humility and expect to reap accordingly. You are positioned well because of the plan that sent and supplied you—launched and promoted you. Your presence makes a difference. It’s why you’re there.
Amen.
