God places the hardest challenges right before lifting someone to success, and uses that time to break relationships rooted in selfish motives. Those connections fall away abruptly, without explanation, so you can move forward unencumbered to the next stage.
Right before God is about to elevate you. He will give you your hardest battle. And he will also reveal the hearts of everyone around you. Because God knows your heart. He knows that you'll take people with you into your successes, into your next level of life. But he also knows the heart of the people around you. And if your connections have the wrong intentions, then he's going to cut them out. They're going to act up out of nowhere. You're not going to know why. It could be an ending of a relationship, of a friendship, whatever it may be. God will reveal their heart to you for you to go to your next level of life.
