Oluwafemi .The Word of God is a light to my Path.

  Be on the Lookout Scripture: Revelation 22:20 “He who testifies to these things says, ‘Surely I am coming quickly.’ Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus! As the Creator, God is always on the move. The landscape of “circumstances” of the world are constantly changing. Opportunities come and go. Scripture emphasizes the brevity of life many times:  “And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.”  (Romans 13:11–12) This is an exhortation we had better listen to in order to be prepared! We are to be on high alert:  “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.”  (Matthew 25:13) Without question, Jesus Christ is returning to this world. This coming event can happen at any time. Do you have a sense of ...

  Before I formed you in the womb I knew you [and approved of you as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I consecrated you.” Jeremiah 1:5 Approved Before you were born, God not only knew you and chose you, but He put a calling on your life. He put greatness in you. He’s destined you to leave your mark. But the enemy will work overtime to try to make you feel left out, as though you don’t matter. “You’re not smart enough. You don’t fit in. You’re too different. You don’t have a good personality.” Don’t believe those lies. Tune all that out. God specializes in choosing people like Jeremiah, people who feel they have too many weaknesses and shortcomings. Don’t disqualify yourself. Don’t think that you have too many flaws, that you’re not qualified, that you don’t come from the right background, that you’ve made too many wrong choices. God knew you before you were formed in your mother’s womb. He knew every mistake you would make. He knew what you would struggle with. He kn...

  Are You a Pen Filled With Ink? Scripture: Psalm 45:1 “ My heart overflows with a pleasing theme; I address my verses to the king; my tongue is like the pen of a ready scribe. ” (Psalm 45:1) We use this key verse in KingdomNomics to help us with the concepts of SOAK, SOW, and FLOW. As we soak our heart in the Word of God and recite our verses to the King, the Spirit causes our heart to overflow with spiritual nourishment. This discipline strengthens our inner person so Christ can prompt us to help continue his ministry in this world. Let’s focus on the word “pen” mentioned in the verse. You and I are like pens. A pen is an instrument used to communicate a message to others. Without ink, the pen is useless. The Spirit can be like the ink needed for a pen to function. In order for us to be “pens” or instruments God can use to continue “writing his story” to this generation, we need to be filled with the ink of the Holy Spirit. (We do this through SOAK, SOW, and FLOW principle explai...

  Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Ephesians 6:10 Why Not Change? It’s easy to get negative when someone offends you. It’s easy to live in self-pity over a bad break. It’s easy to be rude to people who are rude to you. But what if you knew all that was a test. That God put you there to see how you would respond. Don’t let the same things upset you, the same people offend you, the same compromise defeat you year after year. Instead of waiting for it to change, why don’t you change? Why don’t you grow through it? It’s time to step up and prove to God who you are. You’re not weak. You’re a warrior. You don’t fall apart when trouble comes. You are strong in the Lord. You don’t complain that you can’t take it anymore. You can do all things through Christ. You don’t live offended by people who did you wrong. You let God be your vindicator. That’s how you grow through it. When you prove to God that you’re growing stronger, He can entrust you with more favor, more resources, ...

Are you Kingdom Employed? Scripture: Joshua 13:1 “ Now Joshua was old and advanced in years, and the Lord said to him, “You are old and advanced in years, and there remains yet very much land to possess. ” (Joshua 13:1) The words still apply today: “…and there remains yet very much land to possess.” Many people have not had the opportunity to respond to Jesus Christ. It is the responsibility of each generation to use the means at our disposal to reach others for Christ. We have a lot of work to do. We also have work to do related to our inner person. We need to be rooted and grounded in the love of Christ, strengthened and filled with the Holy Spirit as we navigate through life. This is one of the reasons Paul must have said, “ Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. ” (Philippians 3:12) To know Christ and to be an effective witness for him is a most worthy objective. One ...

  Then Orpah kissed her mother-in-law goodbye, but Ruth clung to her….Ruth replied, “Don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God.” Ruth 1:14, 16 Times of Letting Go Ruth and her sister-in-law, Orpah, both lost their husbands. Their widowed mother-in-law, Naomi, was moving back to her hometown. She told Ruth and Orpah to return to their hometowns and find new husbands, that there was no future in staying with her. Orpah kissed Naomi and moved on. But Ruth refused to leave Naomi and was determined to care for Naomi in spite of what it might cost her. That tells me that if someone is supposed to stay with you, they’ll stick with you through thick and thin. You won’t be able to talk them into leaving. On the other hand, you can’t convince the people to stay who are supposed to leave. When God closes the door in a relationship, you can’t pay them enough, compliment them eno...
