Lifted by Grace: Unveiling the Power of Divine Elevation

In his powerful teaching on “Lifted by Grace,” Apostle Joshua Selman reveals the transformative power of God’s grace in elevating our lives. He draws from biblical stories and teachings to illustrate how grace is not just a passive concept but an active force that propels believers into new realms of influence, success, and spiritual maturity.

Key Scriptures:

• James 4:6: “But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: ‘God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.’”

  • Apostle Selman emphasizes that humility is a key posture for receiving God’s lifting grace. It is in recognizing our dependency on God that we position ourselves for His divine elevation.

• 1 Peter 5:6: “Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time.”

  • The teaching underscores the importance of patience and trust in God’s timing. True elevation comes when we allow ourselves to be shaped and prepared by God’s hand.

• Psalm 75:6-7: “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.”

  • Here, Apostle Selman highlights that elevation is not man-made but a divine act. God is the one who decides when and how to lift us, ensuring that our promotion is both timely and lasting.

Reflection & Application:

Applying the Lifting Grace in Your Life and Business

Apostle Selman’s message on the lifting grace of God isn’t just a spiritual concept; it has practical implications for every area of our lives, including our careers and businesses. By aligning our actions with divine principles, we can experience supernatural promotion and favor.

Practical Steps:

1. Embrace Humility: Begin each day with a prayer of surrender, acknowledging God’s role as the source of your success. This humility invites His grace to lift you in ways that human effort alone cannot.

2. Stay in Obedience: Just as God’s grace lifted Joseph from the prison to the palace (Genesis 41), your consistent obedience to God’s Word will set you up for divine elevation, even in challenging circumstances.

3. Seek Divine Guidance: Before making major decisions in your business or career, seek God’s guidance. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us to trust in the Lord with all our heart and not lean on our own understanding. This dependence on God invites His grace to guide and lift you.
