Have you ever wondered what role people have to play in your life?? Do you know that the essence of life and the next step to your next level lies in people?? If I am to define that word "people" in my own way,I would say that people are God's agent fabricated by God from heaven to earth for the purpose of delivering God's promises to us.
I came up with this article to help you understand better that your breakthrough lie in people. If you want a new job,it depends on people.if you want a new house,or car,or you want a breakthrough in your business or place of work,it lies in people. Musicians or celebrities understand that without people,there is no promotion for them. If they do everything they do,and nobody buys their CD's or collection, its as good as nothing.
The problem now is that we often do not see that people have the power we need for our promotion and upliftment. There are people who can change your life within 10 mins, some can give you sweet Jobs, some can connect you to people who can change your life. Life is all about people don't you get?? We just place everything on God forgetting that God cannot leave his throne down to earth to bless you.
When God wants to bless a man,he uses people. He cannot come down from his throne to give you a Job or a car,he definitely always use people. The throne is his dwelling place. Often times,we pray fervently to God for a breakthrough in our life and God releases the answer but because our approach and attitude to people is appalling and abysmal,we tend to lose that blessing.
Everyday in our lives,we meet different people. On your way to school,class,work etc. How sure are you that one of them is not who God has fabricated to help you in your endeavor?? "Oh Lord,send me my helper" - one of the most common prayers people pray. But when God sends these helpers to us,we often chase them away with the way we talk,act,or behave.
When you pick a phone call of an unknown person,mind how you speak to that person. Some people especially ladies have missed it in this aspect.They tend to talk rudely and end up getting the caller pissed off.
A woman applied for a Job in a bank for a customer care representative. She prayed earnestly to God for this because she had all the qualifications,perfect degree and all. Meanwhile,another Lady applied for that same Job but she had not met up with the bank's criteria for the Job. So the job was decided to be given to the first woman.
One faithful day,the bank manager called the woman to announce to her the job news and when she would resume office. When the lady picked, they spoke thus " Hello who is this"? The man said " my name is Joshua" and before he could finish,the lady exclaimed and said " please I don't have time,how did you even get my number and what do you want?? In an unlikely and bad mannered tone. The manager just ended the call and called the other lady who spoke so meek and nicely and the job was given to her.
So the question is : why did she not get the job even though she prayed and qualified better?? Simple ; because she had no understanding of the power of people.
No matter how ugly,funny or stupid you think people are,never look down or behave illmannered to them.
You don't know who that person is,you don't know if he is the agent that God wants to use to uplift you. You don't know his or her worth,so just chill and behave and observe with composure rather than open your mouth to crush who God has sent for you!!
Even when you have friends and subordinates, treat them with respect and love for you don't know where you will meet them tomorrow. Your breakthrough lies in people and no man is wicked enough to forget a good a good and charitable attitude in the past.
A great man MICHAEL WONDER said " Treat people as though you are preparing them to help you tomorrow". There is no promotion without recommendation and nobody will recommend a bad mannered person. So never underestimate people for in people lies your breakthrough and what God has ordained for you!!!
See you at the top!!!!!
