"I should have built my network earlier. Everyone else has connections and I'm starting from scratch at 28."
How it sounds in your head: The guys with opportunities all networked through college or first jobs. I don't know the right people and it's too late to break into those circles now. Every opportunity seems to go to someone who 'knows someone' and I'm on the outside.
"For exaltation comes neither from the east nor from the west nor from the south. But God is the Judge: He puts down one, and exalts another."
-- Psalm 75:6-7Corporate world system that worships 'who you know' and makes provision dependent on human networking instead of divine favor.
Job offers and opportunities keep going to people with connections while you send applications into the void. Everyone says networking is everything and you can see the advantage connected people have.
Daniel was a foreign captive with zero local connections or network in Babylon. One supernatural dream interpretation put him above all the kingdom's networked officials and advisors instantly - outsider to ruler overnight through divine favor alone.
I REFUSE the lie that I'm behind because I lack connections or that opportunity requires human networking. IT IS WRITTEN that exaltation comes from GOD, not from east, west, or LinkedIn. I am not dependent on who I know - I am dependent on WHO KNOWS ME. The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the earth to show Himself strong on my behalf. IT IS WRITTEN that the steps of a righteous man are ordered by the Lord. Divine appointments trump every human network. The BARAK positions me before kings and gives me favor with decision-makers. I receive supernatural divine connections NOW in Jesus' name.
The Father isn't worried about your empty contact list - He's orchestrating divine appointments that make 'networking' look like child's play. He's preparing to put you in rooms your resume could never access through favor that confounds connected people.
