When men speak like God

Exodus 15:9 KJV
The enemy said,
"I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

You see, when some people speak this way, they forget one very vital thing

...THEY ARE NOT GOD.

Lam 3v37 NIV
Who can speak and have it happen if the Lord has not decreed it? (No one, no matter how "powerful" he or she is)

When you hear such, do not panic...you are the son/daughter of the most High, the apple of His eyes for that matter. The child of
the all powerful God. He is for you, and if He is for you, who then can successful be against you?

In my young life, I have heard stuffs like;

"Over my dead body will you get this or that"
"Over my dead body will this document be signed"
"I will ensure you don't get that
promotion" etc

What did I do? I laughed, went into my closet, dragged the matter to my altar of prayer and consequently reported the issue to my Father

Trust me, He took decisive action, and the rest they say is History.

At such moments, you don't entertain fear or start

“We don’t negotiate salaries” is a negotiation tactic.

Always. No, your company is not an exception.

A tactic I don’t appreciate at all because of how unfairly it penalizes low-leverage, junior employees, and those loyal enough not to question it, but that’s negotiation for you after all. Weaponized information asymmetry.

And by the way, you should never be worried that an offer would be withdrawn if you politely negotiate.

I have seen this happen *extremely* rarely, mostly to women, and anyway is a giant red flag. It suggests you probably didn’t want to work there.

You wish there was no negotiating so it would all be more fair? I feel you, but it’s not happening.

Instead, negotiate hard, use your privilege, and then go and share numbers with your underrepresented and underpaid colleagues. […]
