“And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:” Deuteronomy 28:13
Do you often feel you’re living below where God intended? Have you been passed over for promotion more times than you care to remember? Do you show up and do your best day in and day out and feel it’s not rewarded? Do you pray and sometimes feel your prayers go unanswered?
Well, maybe they haven’t. If you’ve done your part, His answer may be closer than you think. Whether you’re a twenty-something just starting your career or a seasoned professional, there is so much no one has told you that you need to know. The truth is there are unwritten rules in the workplace that you’re expected to know—even though you don’t have access to the inner circle. Many of these rules are basic and apply to most organizations. Others are unique to the culture of the organization where you work. The problem is, without a mentor or sponsor, you’ll remain out of the loop on how to get ahead. That is until now.
What You Don’t Know Is Hurting You – 4 Keys To A Phenomenal Career pulls the curtain back on many of the secrets and strategies needed to get ahead. This best-selling book was written by Marion E. Brooks, who reached the pinnacle of success in one of the world’s largest medical companies and walked away when He felt the call to help others. (See his story in our January/February issue.)
God uses those who are willing to serve Him to bless others. This is exactly what Marion decided to do, and his best-selling book is teaching countless individuals the steps to take to achieve success in the work place in ways they never imagined.
God wants you to prosper, to be the head and not the tail, the lender not the borrower, to live above and not beneath–AND He has a plan for your life. So, if you’ve been feeling left out or left behind, it’s time to ask, “God, What Are You Saying to Me?” Then, do as He says.
Jeremiah 29:11-13 MSG “I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I’ll listen. When you come looking for me, you’ll find me. Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else, I’ll make sure you won’t be disappointed.”
