There are there types of wisdom : earthly (intellectual wisdom we acquire though study and natural wisdom that we are born with) wisdom, devilish wisdom and wisdom from above (wisdom from God, divine/supernatural wisdom)
Wisdom from above causes a person to rise above anything they can face in life.
Genesis 3:3, 6-8
Throughout the ages God and satan have been battling for the minds of humans with regards to which type of wisdom they submit to.
Proverbs 4:7, 11, Ephesians 1:18
Understanding is the opening of eyes.
When you see what is being said you have come to a point of understanding.
Wisdom is the ability to anticipate the outcome of an action.
Wisdom is the correct application of scripture to real life applications.
Wisdom gives safety (Proverbs 3:16-17)
Wisdom is receiving what God says and applying it to your life.
Wisdom from above is unbeatable, don’t depend on your intelligence or understanding.
1Corinthians 2:6-7
The wisdom of God is concealed,  therefore you need the opening of eyes to be able to look into it.
The foundation of the wisdom of God is the fear of God (Job 28:28, Daniel 2:28)
The wisdom of God works wonders.

John 3:27, James 1:17, 1 Chronicles 29:24, Philippians 4:15, Genesis 39:21, Genesis 6:5
You can not allow your mind to be anywhere it wishes to be, you have to actively manage it.
Your mind is the pacesetter for your destination.
Whatever you allow to be the centre of your attention you have allowed to master you.
Genesis 11:6-7
There’s no impossibility until it exists in your mind.
When what you think and what you talk are in agreement, you’re unstoppable.
2 Corinthians 10:3-6, Ephesians 6:12-16, Proverbs 4:23
If you win in life it’s because you have won in your imagination.
God gave us our mind to either magnify or minify our experience.
If you want to change your feelings change what you feed your mind with.
Philippians 4:8
Don’t feed your mind what you don’t want it to reflect on, through what you say, hear, and see.

Genesis 13:14-15, 26-27, 2:7
The spirit world appears unreal to those who are so accustomed to the physical world.
To form (yatha in Greek): squeeze into shape, to mould into a form (especially as a potter).
Imagination: Formulation of mental pictures of something that is neither perceived as real or present to the senses.
Imagination is the creative ability God has placed in given beings.
Your mind doesn’t know the difference between imagination and reality.
We as humans have only used a fraction of our imaginative capabilities yet we have invented so much to date.
If you don’t take charge of the imagination your mind will be creating realities that you don’t want.
Your imagination will create an experience for you.
Genesis 13:14, Romans 4:13-17, Joshua 1:3-4, Genesis 17:5
You may not be responsible for where you’re today but you’re responsible for where you’ll be tomorrow, use your imagination.
What happens in the mind will happen in time.
Whatever you can sustain in your imagination you can do.
Genesis 31:1-10, 2 Kings 7:3
You need to feed your imagination with what you want to create, and stay focused on it.
We have massive potential for creativity in this generation but life will not freely give us the atmosphere where that creativity can thrive.
Creativity and thinking require an atmosphere.
Social media is a thief of creative  atmosphere, you have to get away from all those distractions in order to think. 
Use social media for meaningful activities.
You need to create  time to think ( focused, critical thinking not aimless thinking).
Pick a subject in your imagination and stay on it.
You need to create alone moments to allow yourself to think. Your creativity will never thrive if you don’t do so.
The world will do everything to rob you of an atmosphere to be creative.
Many people never move past the realm of knowledge into understanding.
Societal thinking also hinders creativity, many people are always looking to see what everyone around them is doing and hang around that same level.
It is God’s duty to bring to me what I’ve imagined.
Just like we look at photo albums and our imaginations are activated ,if you turn prophecies  into pictures  that will serve as  your photo
album for tomorrow.
An empty mind during prayer is a waste of time, no wonder we have so many prayer warriors without results.
Don’t go to pray if you have not yet located the focus of your prayer.
You cannot think poverty and expect riches.
Don’t let mind limiters such as “I’m too young”, “I’m too old”, “I’m in the wrong country”, and many more to set limits on what you can achieve.

Ephesians 2:9-12, Isaiah 49:8
You don’t pay or pray to be royalty, you’re born into it.
when God helps you, humans have no choice but to help you.
The purpose of the covenant is to establish God’s purpose on the earth and cause you to inherit what God has for you.
God’s part of the covenant is guaranteed, circumstances not withstanding; so all you have to do is keep your end of the covenant.
Take actions of faith that are in line with what God has said in the covenant.
Psalm 126:1-6, Genesis 8:22

What does sacrifice do?
1.God swears blessings at the altar of sacrifice (Genesis 22:6)
   When God swears a blessing all struggles are over.
2.Termination of curses (Genesis 8:20-22)
Your sacrifice is what will activate the blood of Jesus to speak on your behalf to neutralise curses.
3.God gives supernatural wisdom (1Kings 3:5, 4:29-30)
   Solomon accessed wisdom at the altar of sacrifice.
4.It stops plagues (2Kings 24:24)
5.God releases supernatural wealth (1Kings 3:13)
6.God gives honor (Psalm 112:12-13)
7.All needs are met (Philippians 4:15-19, 2 Chronicles 15:11-13, Psalm 111:1-5)
   If you don’t do the same things others are doing don’t expect the same results as them.

Jeremiah 8:1,7, Proverbs 18:1, Matthew 4:4
The devil is a deceiver, to beat him you need revelation.
Only revelation beats deception.
The cure for deception is not just truth but revealed truth (revelation).
1 Kings 3:17, Revelation 4:1-2
If we do not understand seasons and times we’ll miss our times of visitation.
1 Chronicles 12:32
Your visitation may not come at a time that you think is appropriate, it might come at a time when several things are demanding for your attention.
1 Samuel 30:1-8, 31:6
David playing a guitar so that the demon could stop tormenting Saul was one of the hardest tests that he had to face. He had to look at the throne he was supposed to sit on and help the man he was supposed to replace day after day.In all this he behaved himself wisely.
God is not motivated by tears but by faith.
Nobody can be visited by God without a sober mind.
God wants to visit you when it looks like you’re faced with so many disappointments and nothing seems to work out in your favour.
God doesn’t choose to visit us at times that are convenient to us, hence why we must be ready all the time.
Luke 19:42
Sometimes the visitation of God might be hidden in an instruction (Genesis 22:2)
There will never be a time when all you hear is God’s voice exclusively without hearing satan’s voice suggesting things to you.
As long as you’re on earth there will always be a contest of voices.
The devil loves to take people out of position when he senses increased divine activity around people’s lives, so that they can miss what God has for them.

Genesis 18:1-5, 21:1-2
Before God does something he sends forth His word.
God doesn’t speak for entertainment, he speaks for a specific purpose.
God visits according to His word, He first sends His word then visits to perform what He said in His word.

What should you do if you’re to be visited by God? [Genesis 18:1-9]
1)You must be prompt to act
2) call on God and let Him know you want a visitation
3)be hospitable to others
   You might not know who the person you’re mistreating  is connected to.
   Treat people fairly and with kindness.

Acknowledge God’s hand even in the things that night seem little to you, you might be looking for k10 million and God provides k50, you should appreciate Him for that.
The main aim of Divine Visitation is to terminate satanic activity in a person’s life, especially those that have been long standing.
A season of divine visitation is a season of  heightened awareness of God’s presence.
Divine Visitation is accompanied by diverse manifestations of God (Genesis 12:1-3)
Every divine Visitation will result in divine manifestation. Genesis 21:1-6, Luke 7:13-16

What happens when God visits?

1.Fulfilment of promises and prophecies take place (Genesis 21:1, Jeremiah 27:22, 29:10)
2.An outpouring of the Holy Spirit (Acts 3:19)
This brings refreshing and empowerment to God’s people.
3.Divine help and provision come into play (Ruth 1:6, 1Kings 3:5-13)
4.Restoration of inheritance and homecoming (Jeremiah 29:10)
5.God terminates pain and acts on behalf of His people ( Exodus 4:31)
6.Long standing problems are resolved easily (Job 10:12, Psalm 106:4-5)
7.A release of favor (Exodus 3:21)
8.Prayers are answered (1 Samuel 2:21)
9.Deliverance is inevitable no matter the bondage (Exodus 3:16, Luke 1:78-79)
10.Turning of every form of captivity (Zephaniah 2:7)
11.Salvation takes place (Luke 19:11, Psalm 106:4)
12. A manifestation of God’s glory (Matthew 17:1-8)
13.Victory (2 Chronicles 20:20-25)
14.Judgement of enemies (Numbers 16:27-30,Genesis 18:20-21, Acts 12:21-23)
15.Miracles take place (Luke 1:26-31)

Genesis 40:20-23,  41:1,12
You can only have a desire to come out of a situation that you refuse to accept.
You must refuse to accept any situation you might be in that does not line up with the will of God for your life.
Conversations change seasons.
Be careful who you choose to  believe.
The voice of the enemy might not come in a way that you expect it to, making it even harder to detect
God places us among people that he would use as vessels to communicate a particular message he might have for us at a particular point in time.
Be very careful how you relate with people, some people only want to relate to those that can offer thek something in the present.
It is a default  human reaction to want to treat those that seem like they have a lot of material wealth better than those who don’t seem to presently have.
You will not have divine visitation of there is no conversation concerning you, conversation will lead to visitation.
When the butler had a conversation with Pharaoh concerning how Joseph had interpreted a dream, it triggered Joseph’s divine visitation and change of season.
You don’t need to be in the palace or corridors of power in order for  things to change in your life, you just need someone divinely orchestrated by God to have a conversation about you in those places.
Even favour is triggered by conversations (Ruth 2:11).

Dedicated: to be committed, devoted, obligated to the doing of something , donated, sold out to a cause at a cost
Mark 4:24, Luke 8:18
You will not be a candidate for what you do not have a hunger for from God.
Hebrews 6:12
You will only be made if you’re a follower.
Define what you’re in church for,  whether you’re there just for a miracle or you want your entire destiny to be moulded.
It’s not enough to just serve God for one day.
Acts 10:1-2, Galatians 6:9
It is dedication that results in our distinction.
Dedication is costly (John 10:17-18)
In your dedication to God you’ll have to give up certain things that are in conflict with the area of your dedication.
Serving God is not a sprint, it’s a marathon.
You’ll only win in your walk with God if you’re consistent. (Matthew 24:46)
Consistence in your dedication to God applies to every area in which you serve God.
satan knows that you’ll not see results if you don’t do a good thing consistently.
You’ll face resistance whenever you want to be consistent in your dedication to God.
Matthew 26:58. Habakkuk 2:3
It is God’s nature to be consistent (Malachi 3:6, Revelation 1:8)
Serving God for life regardless of circumstances must be everyone’s target in life and ďestiny.
Rewards are not given for starting a race but for finishing it.

What does it take to serve God consistently?
1.Do it as if you’re the only person around ( 1 Corinthians 3:9)
  Maintain your individuality so that you’re not offended by the behaviour of others
2.Serve God with patience and endurance (Jeremiah 6:16, Galatians 6:16, Matthew 24:12)
3 Maintain your joy (Habakkuk 3:18, Hebrews 12:1-3)
  When joy dries up many people give up on their service.
  It is joy fast kept Jesus running till the end of his race.
4.Connect with divine help ( Acts 26:22, Hebrews 12:28)

What are the benefits of stewardship?
Exodus 23:25, Psalm 89:34-35
Of all the different kinds of kingdom service, soul winning wins you the most rewards.
1.Answers to prayer (John 15:16)
2.Honor (1 Samuel 2:30, Proverbs 14:28)
3.Supernatural prosperity (Matthew 6:29-33, Psalm 112:1-3, Job 36:11, Psalm 34:10)
4.Supernatural supplies (Luke 22:45
5.Divine covering (Luke 10:17-19)
6.Divine wisdom (Mark 16:20, Proverbs 11:30)
7.Supernatural breakthrough (Luke 5:3)
8.Commanding the supernatural (Mark 16:20)
9.Divine health (Exodus 23:25, Proverbs 13:17, Isaiah 38:1-5)

There are two types of minds, a carnal (natural) mind and a spiritual mind (mind of Christ)
If you’re going to be carnally minded you’ll be subjected to the law of sin and death while if you’re spiritually minded you’ll be subjected to the law of life and truth.
Whatever is your most dominant thought will dominate your life.
As born again christians our minds  have the framework for the mind of Christ (a spiritual mind).
A person that’s not  born again can not have the mind of Christ.
If you program your mind with the word of God you begin to function like God, no wonder the bible says all  things are possible with someone who believes, just as all things are possible with God.  (Luke 1:37)
Proverbs 23:7
God’s thoughts are higher than human thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9).
Thoughts lead to development of a lifestyle.
The future of a person is in their habits.
It is rituals (habits) that make people what they are, whether  good or bad.
We should make the reading and meditation of God’s word a ritual so that we can partake in the thoughts of God.
A higher life comes from the higher thoughts of God, which emanate from the word of God.
2 Timothy 1:7, 1 Peter 5:8, Deuteronomy 20:1-4, 8

Habits will  take you further than passion.
If you fail or succeed it will be because of your habits.
What you discipline yourself to do so soon turn into a habit.
The purpose of discipline ia to birth a habit.
indisciplined people cannot develop habits
Rituals of honor which will guarantee the divine favor of God
Every ritual of honor schedules a guaranteed reward(Proverbs 3:10)
1.Reading the bible
  Your reaction to God’s word is your reaction to God himself.
2.Listening to the word of God
  Listen daily to God’s word because what enters you is what will exit you.
3.Studying God’s word everyday
4.Church attendance
  Church is a life changing experience, attending church is a task.
  Church attendance is obedience to a divine commandment.
5.Singing  and worshipping
  Psalm 100:1-2,4-5
  This is your invitation to the Holy Spirit.
6.The secret place
  Have a secret place where you meet God at an agreed time, and be consistent.
  Sanctify a place in your home where you meet with the Holy Spirit, a room set apart specifically for Him.
  1 Chronicles 15:12
  Your doubts, weaknesses and fear die in the presence of God.
7.The tithe
  This is the first 10% of your income, and God describes it as holy (Leviticus 27:30-32, Proverbs 3:9) 

  The ritual of the tithe guarantees financial favor.
  Your offering can not begin until your tithe has been returned to the Lord.
  If you’re erratic in your receiving from God it’s indicative of your inconsistent givings.

If we’re in the right place and doing what we’re supposed to there shouldn’t be any toiling in life and destiny( Matthew 6:28-29, Proverbs 10:22).
Being in the blessing is like working with the tide, while when you’re outside the blessing you toil, because you’re working against the tide

Exodus 1:14, 3:12
Serving God is not a gift, it is a choice (Joshua 24:15).
Serving God is choosing to work under the blessing but choosing to work for satan is choosing to work under the curse.
The Israelites were freed from bondage so they could serve God (Exodus 1:14, 7:16, 8:1,20,9:1,13).
Why should you have money? why should your business succeed? why should you be promoted?  …What are your answers to these questions?
Isaiah 42:1, 3, – 4, John 12:26, 21:15-16
God puts an enablement on somebody that’s given themselves to service, in order to help them serve Him better.
Servants don’t beg to be promoted, they serve their way into promotion.
As your master is lifted, you too as a servant will be lifted.
Every child of God should aspire to be a servant of God.
Service will bring you into the realm where what answers to God answers to you.
John 15:16
The prayers of those who serve God are guaranteed.
Demonic altars will fight hard to ensure you don’t serve God.
Luke 12:19
Service is proof of our dedication to God, value for God, and  submission to God.
Service is also a proof of our love for God.
Service is heavily anchored by the love of God.
A life of chasing is own interests instead of God’s has added nothing to our lives.
If serving Good is not a priority to you, then you’re also not a priority to God, you’re actually a liability.
Servants enjoy divine presence cheaply because they’re always where their master is.

Examples of God’s servants in the bible
1.Abraham (Genesis 26:24, Psalm 105:43)
2.Moses (Exodus 4:10, 14:31, Numbers 12:6-7, Deuteronomy 34:5)
3.Joshua (Joshua 5:13-14)
4.David (Psalm 78:70, 89:3,20)
