The Law Of Increase: 5 Steps To Getting Promoted

This is a message that completely changed my life when I studied it. The more I studied it, the more I came into this monster revelation: I would not be who I am today had I not heard this particular parable…

Check this out… Matthew 25, Verse 14 – 26. “Again, it will be like a man going on a journey who called his servants and entrusted his property to them. To one he gave five talents of money. To another he gave two talents. To another he gave one talent, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more. So also the one with two talents gained two more, but the man who had received one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money.

“After a long time, the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. The man who had received the five talents brought the other five. “Master,” he said. “You entrusted me with the five talents. See? I have gained five more.” His master replied, “Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful with the few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness.” The man with the two talents also came. “Master,” he said, “You entrusted me with two talents. See? I have gained two more.” His master replied, “Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful with the few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness.” Then the man who had received the one talent came. “Master,” he said, “I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown, gathering where you have not scattered seed. So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See? Here’s what belongs to you.”

“His master replied, “You wicked, lazy servant. So you know that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed. Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest. Take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents. For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him, and throw the worthless servant outside into darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

I want you to discover which of the three servants you are, and how do you get promoted out of the position that you’re in right now.

Do you want to be promoted? Then follow these 5 points.

  1. God is the promoter. He sees what you do and don’t do, if you’re doing it with a spirit of excellence, if you’re doing it diligently, and who you’re doing it for. If it’s all for your recognition, then it’s all in vain.
  2. All three servants got something “according to their ability.” Have you ever raised your ability? Who is in charge of the ability department? You! What do you do if you don’t have ability? Get yourself trained and equipped so that you can go get it!
  3. He leaves and he comes back a long time later. Why did he give them the talents and then leave? He wanted to see what they were going to do with them. He wanted to see who was going to step up.

Let’s look at the first servant, who was given five… What did he do?

  • He left at once and invested the money, and he doubled the money!
  • He was so grateful for the opportunity to go out there and do something. You’ve been given a chance to succeed. Are you grateful for it?
  • He did it immediately and with a spirit of excellence. If you were honest would you say that you have not quite given your business the spirit of excellence that you know you should?
  • He trusted his master’s character.

Let’s look at servant number two. He did the same thing as number one…

  • He went out immediately and he doubled his profits.
  • He didn’t whine about only receiving two talents. He did NOT say, “You know what? He got five, and I only got two! I always get the short end of the stick.”
  • He did not make a comparison.
  • He knew who the promoter was, so he went out and he gave it his best shot. That’s how you get promoted.

Now let’s look at my favorite servant, number three.

  • He dug a hole and he buried his talent. “And he hid the Lord’s money.” Whose money? The Lord has entrusted you with an amount. Are you taking care of it, and are you investing it wisely, or are you blowing it?
  • He hid the talent. It says, “I hid the talent because I was afraid.” Why aren’t you using YOUR talents?
  • He was absolutely ungrateful for what he was given.
  • He did not know the character of his master. Do you know the character of YOUR master? The first two KNEW the character of their master. The last one did not know the character of his master and, therefore, did a wicked thing. All three servants were being tested for a promotion. TWO took a risk and made an INCREASE. The third servant did NOT past the test.
  1. Use your gifting or your talent for God’s glory! Have you been given a gift and you’re using it for your own glory and recognition? That was me for a lot of years. I used my gifting for my fame and it was wrong and it was empty. The Bible says that whatever you do to gain recognition from man, you have already received your reward IN FULL, and there is NOTHING for you after that.
  2. Do NOT hide it because of fear of man! Have you hidden your gift and talent because of rejection of man?

The Bible says, “Many are called but few are chosen.” You were chosen to do something great. Have you belittled the gift or talent that God gave you? Do you compare it to somebody else’s or have you taken a RISK on the talent that you’ve been given?

I was not born with the five. I was born with one, and the one thing I had was a spirit of excellence. I was born with the desire to give it my best. The same God that promoted me wants to promote you. And if I can come from under a rock to becoming an internationally known success coach with a multi million-dollar business, then what are you waiting for?
