Know the difference between your Source and a mere channel. Never mistake a channel (man) as your source (God). Promotion comes from God, and yes He will have to use a man, but the difference between the two men is that the channel God uses come to or calls for you. While the channel you mistake for your source, you go to.

Both are men, but one is like the Pharaoh in Joseph's time and the other like Pharaoh in Moses' time.

Joseph was not found wanting in the work he was called to do, only when it came to going against the grain of his integrity would he not compromise. If you compromise you grow bitter. So check your attitude to see if you are bitter or have joined the pity party.
Believe the dream God has placed within you, sow seeds of kindness and helps, water these seeds with your praise and words, and before you know it, your Source would multiply your seed and give you the desired harvest.

No man can ride you unless you are bent down already. Stand tall, you are not come to be a slave to any man, but are a worker worthy of his hire. So work as unto the Lord and not man. However, remember the most important things: your relationship with God, your health, your family and your posterity. Stop living as if it all ends in the office/church or for that matter on the earth.
