1. Welcome to DEEPER LIFE BIBLE CHURCH, AMSTERDAM REGION Year of A Bountiful Harvest Sunday Worship Service 24 February 2019

2. THE PATHWAY OF POWER, PROMOTION AND PROGRESS – 1 Samuel 17:31-37
The Lord is leading us onwards to lift us upwards!

3. KEY THOUGHT Power, promotion and progress have a lot to do with your personality, your principles and your pursuit. You need a steady foundation, a supporting environment and a positive personal drive. You too can make significant progress if you apply the principles that govern it!

4. BEGINNING WITH PRACTICAL RIGHTEOUSNESS
Righteousness is THE foundation:
Its essence: Deu 6:24,25
Its mark: Psa 4:3-5; 37:37
Its profit: Psa 112:1-10
Its differentiation: Pro 11:4-6
Its exaltation: Pro 14:34
Its possibilities: Pro 15:8
There is no better ground to support progress than a life that attracts God’s favour. Righteousness pays!

5. BUILDING THROUGH PROFITABLE RELATIONSHIPS
Promotion, power and progress require profitable connections:
Indispensable communion with God gives direction: Psa 1:1-3
Necessary connection with great people gives ideas: Pro 13:20
Purposeful contact with fellowmen gives service channels: Psa 112:5,9
Your relationships provide you with feeding, favour and fruitfulness. To climb, you must connect!

6. BREAKTHROUGH BY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
There are two things you must note:
Your mentality  your mobility:
Faith, not laziness: Acts 27:25
Possibility, not fear: Isa 50:7
Plenty, not scarcity: Gen 13:8-11
Your attitude  your altitude:
Sow wisely: Jer 4:3; 2 Cor 9:6-10
Go all the way: Ecc 11:1-6; Luk 5:4,5
Demand/expect : Ge 29:21; Jam 4:7
The power for promotion and progress is for those who see and seize it!

7. TIME TO PRAY!
