The Bible provides numerous examples of promotion, both in a literal sense, such as the elevation of individuals to positions of authority, and in a spiritual sense, where God's principles and kingdom are advanced.<br><br><b>Promotion of Individuals:</b><br><br>1. <b>Joseph's Rise to Power:</b> One of the most notable examples of promotion in the Bible is the account of Joseph. Despite being sold into slavery by his brothers, Joseph's faithfulness and God's favor led to his promotion. In <a href="/genesis/41-40.htm">Genesis 41:40-41</a> , Pharaoh says to Joseph, "You shall be in charge of my house, and all my people are to obey your commands. Only with regard to the throne will I be greater than you." Joseph's rise from a prisoner to the second most powerful man in Egypt exemplifies divine promotion.<br><br>2. <b>David's Anointing as King:</b> David's promotion from shepherd boy to king of Israel is another significant example. Despite his humble beginnings, God chose David for his heart and character. In <a href="/1_samuel/16-12.htm">1 Samuel 16:12-13</a> , the Lord instructs Samuel to anoint David, saying, "Rise and anoint him, for he is the one." David's promotion was not immediate but was assured by God's promise.<br><br>3. <b>Esther's Elevation:</b> Esther's account is a testament to God's providence and the promotion of individuals for His purposes. As a Jewish woman who became queen of Persia, Esther was positioned to save her people from destruction. Her promotion is seen as part of God's plan, as described in <a href="/esther/4-14.htm">Esther 4:14</a> , where Mordecai tells her, "And who knows if perhaps you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"<br><br><b>Promotion of Divine Principles:</b><br><br>1. <b>The Great Commission:</b> The promotion of the Gospel is a central theme in the New Testament. Jesus commands His disciples to spread His teachings, as seen in <a href="/matthew/28-19.htm">Matthew 28:19-20</a> : "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you." This directive emphasizes the promotion of God's kingdom and principles throughout the world.<br><br>2. <b>Exaltation of Humility:</b> The Bible often promotes the principle that humility leads to exaltation. In <a href="/james/4-10.htm">James 4:10</a> , it is written, "Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you." This principle is countercultural, emphasizing that true promotion comes from God and is often linked to humility and service.<br><br>3. <b>Advancement of Righteousness:</b> The promotion of righteousness and justice is a recurring theme. <a href="/proverbs/14-34.htm">Proverbs 14:34</a> states, "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people." This highlights the belief that the promotion of righteous living leads to the elevation and blessing of a community or nation.<br><br><b>Spiritual Promotion:</b><br><br>1. <b>Growth in Spiritual Maturity:</b> The New Testament encourages believers to grow and be promoted in their spiritual maturity. <a href="/ephesians/4-15.htm">Ephesians 4:15</a> urges believers to "speak the truth in love" and "grow up in all things into Him who is the head, that is, Christ." This growth is seen as a form of spiritual promotion, advancing believers in their faith and understanding.<br><br>2. <b>Heavenly Rewards:</b> The Bible speaks of promotion in terms of eternal rewards. In <a href="/matthew/25-21.htm">Matthew 25:21</a> , Jesus tells the faithful servant, "Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful over a few things; I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your master." This suggests that earthly faithfulness leads to heavenly promotion.<br><br>Throughout Scripture, the theme of promotion is intricately linked with God's sovereignty, human faithfulness, and the advancement of His kingdom. Whether through the elevation of individuals or the spread of divine principles, promotion in the biblical sense is ultimately about fulfilling God's purposes and glorifying His name.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
