The Head And Not The Tail

Deuteronomy 28:13
13And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath…

One of our church members saw his sales performance hit rock bottom by the middle of the year. As a result, in the ranking of financial advisers in the company, he was placed 320 out of 420. Devastated and on the verge of giving up, he started listening to my messages and claiming God’s promises that say, “… the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath…” and “… many who are first will be last, and the last first”. (Matthew 19:30) He committed everything to God because he believed that only God could turn things around for him. And God did just that. By the end of that year, he was ranked second in his branch and tenth in the whole company! He qualified for a trip for two to Barcelonia, Spain, worth about $20,000. That was not all. For the first time in his 12 years as a financial adviser, he qualified for the Million Dollar Round Table Award. In fact, only the top six per cent of advisers in the entire industry qualify for this international award. Beloved, when God makes you the head, you will end up on top of your circumstances.Consider the story of Joseph. (Genesis 39) Even when he was a slave, he was the head and not the tail because God prospered everything that he did. “But Pastor Prince, when I look at my life, there are times when I am up and there are times when I am down. But the Bible says that I will be above only. I don’t understand this.” What you are going through is only temporal. You have to keep believing that you are above only and not beneath, even when you are at rock bottom. It is God who always causes you to triumph in Christ. (2 Corinthians 2:14) You cannot cause yourself to triumph. Only God can and He has said in His Word that you will be the head and not the tail, above only and not beneath!
