Open Heaven 10 September 2026: Accelerated and Extraordinary Promotion
MEMORISE: For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 1 Corinthians 1:26
READ: Joshua 1:1-2 (KJV)
1 Now after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord it came to pass, that the Lord spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ minister, saying,
2 Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.

The word ‘minister’ in the olden days basically referred to a servant who ran all sorts of errands for his or her master.
Such errands would often include emptying and washing the master’s chamber pot, doing the master’s laundry, washing his feet, and the like.
While Moses was alive, Joshua was his minister, so you can imagine how shocking it must have been for the latter when God informed him that he was to become the leader of Israel after his master’s demise.
This is a good example of an accelerated and extraordinary promotion. The promotion was so sudden that Joshua became very anxious over the weight of his new responsibility.
I know this because in today’s Bible reading, God had to tell him three times to be strong and of good courage.
I decree today that God will promote you in such a manner, in Jesus’ name.
Whenever I see people struggling for promotion and desiring to be in leadership positions, I know it is because they do not understand God’s ways.
God never gives accelerated and extraordinary promotions to the wise or the qualified.
He never gives it to those who think they are brilliant enough to explain the scientific permutations behind His workings.
He always uses the foolish and weak things to confound the wise and mighty things (1 Corinthians 1:27).
Therefore, people who think they are strong and wise enough to work out their promotion should not expect accelerated and extraordinary promotions from God because He only accelerates the promotion of those who will never take His glory for themselves.
On the day my wife and I got married at the marriage registry, we met a lady there who was dressed in a wedding gown.
However, she wasn’t with her groom; the man had abandoned her. The lady nearly ran mad, but she survived.
After some time, she married a soldier. Unknown to her, the man who jilted her on their wedding day also joined the army.
Then God moved. A military coup occurred, and her husband was made a military governor. Incidentally, the man who jilted her was assigned as her husband’s aide-de-camp.
Thus, anytime she wanted to enter a car, it was her former husband-to-be who would open the door for her since she was the wife of a military governor.
Beloved, I decree today that God will accelerate your promotion, and all those who have been mocking you will be confounded, in Jesus’ name.
