Luke 10:38-42
• Many times, the reason why people do not succeed in many endeavours they are involved in is broken focus.
• Every single day when you wake up in the morning, there will be a lot of things competing for your attention but we don’t apply ourselves equally to all those things because they don’t rate the same.
• You can find somebody doing a lot of things which don’t contribute their future because they lack wisdom.
• Whenever you see people succeed, it’s because they have discovered where they’re going and have decided not to be masters of many things but that one thing they are passionate about.
• When you discover things that are important, it is wisdom to prioritise them.
Mat 18:1-4, Titus 2:3-5, 1 Tim 4:7, Gen 18:12
• As far as God is concerned, when you stop learning, you have grown old.
• Take lessons quickly.
• Begin to plead for mercy from God so that you may never be irrelevant when He wants to do things.

• If you are going to participate in the things that are happening in the kingdom, you must have a child-like mentality.
Isa 43:18-19

• When God stirs the hearts of your helpers, they will go through danger for your sake.
• You don’t need every man.
• Enthronement can’t be established with divine wisdom.
• Behind the reigning of a king, there must be wisdom.
Exo 7:1, 9-12, Isa 47:12-13
• Many people don’t know that praying in tongues is one of those ways in which to access the wisdom of God.
• Many suffer because they take prophecy casually.

• The wisdom of God founded the earth (Psa 104:24).

• The wisdom of God founded the earth (Psa 104:24).
• It is spirits that rule indirectly over the affairs of the earth.

• Divine wisdom will save us from many catastrophes the enemy intends for us.
• The foundation for accessing the wisdom of God is the fear of God.
• If the devil makes sure that you are not standing properly with God, he can be very sure that he can stop anything else.
• If he has planted something in you that makes you sin easily, you become a cheap target.
• The devil is taking advantage of something that you have allowed.
• If the devil can still have a hold over your life, he will make it very hard.
• There are many young people that can invent things that will make them millions but they can’t have inspiration because the devil has clogged their minds.

• As a christian, if you think you are free to do anything then your christianity is questionable.
• In christianity there is no independence but only dependence.
Gal 2:20, 1 John 5:4
• Christianity is a dependent life – you are having life through the life of another.
• You will face challenges in your spiritual life.
• It is spiritual to be challenged but unscriptural to be defeated.
• If you are defeated because for not building up your faith, it is because of your own carelessness.
• There is a way out of any challenge a man can face.
• You can either see that way out or hear it.
• The earthly realm is a theater where the decisions made in the spirit realm are played out.
• If you have no access to the happenings in the spirit realm, your life will be full of ups and downs.
• Which spirit has an upper hand in your life?
• Whichever spirit you make yourself a slave to will have an upper hand in your life.
• The reason why we can get healed is because someone paid the price by sacrifice.

• God is faithful.
• If you faint, you lose your harvest.
Est 4:14, Gen 22:2, 12

• The supernatural and the natural are separated by a very thin curtain, that’s why those that don’t focus, can’t cross to the other side
• Require concentration, watching, an ear that hears
• Time is not a factor in the supernatural.
• Isa 38:1-8
• It’s not that God doesn’t hear, men are too proud to call on him.
• Every time God steps into a matter to help someone, He has remembered something, mostly it is a covenant that that person had with God.

• The house of God is not a lecture room, you have to pay attention to catch what God is saying through his vessels.
• If prisoners are not groaning, there is nothing that God will respond to. Psalm 102:19
• When you pled for mercy you are saying remember me. Jam 2:13
• 1 Sam 1:11, 2:6, something had to be killed by God for Hannah’s womb to be made alive in order to conceive.

1 John 5:19, Dan 2:19, Mat 13:25

• Today may be as a result of the decisions of yesterday but your tomorrow will be as a result of your decisions today.
• The call for mercy is what makes God to step into your matter in order to use it as an excuse to bless you.
• Men are not trapped today but yesterday when they thought they do not need God.

• When God speaks:
1. He is about to do something.
2. He has seen something
3. He has heard something.

• God does not speak for entertainment.
• Those who value what he says, they see his hand.
• Since God is all knowing, He sees way ahead.

• If God rejects you nobody else can accept you, even when help you its because God is using them.
After the service, don’t just be excited that you have finished a program, be more conscious of what you received.
• Both Saul and David were anointed but Saul did not know what come on him and what it represented.
• 2 Sam 1:21, 25
• The anointing removes burdens and breaks the yokes. Isa 10:27

• The anointing protects.

• Est 4:3, 12-14, 6:1-10, Mat 2:7-8

• By the elevation of Mordecai to a place of influence and authority, all the battles he was facing came to an end.

• 1 Kings 3:3, 5-9, 15-20, God visited Solomon at night because of the sacrifice he made during the day.
• Don’t confuse where you are and where you are going.

Deut 2:1-9, 2 Chron 20:1-25
• Pray intelligently.
• Only wise people turn to God for help.
• When you face battles in life and all you see is yourself and how you are dealing with those battles, you have lost. You need to go back and see yourself in the midst of covenants, to what God said.
• God doesn’t get involved in some battles because when things are going well, we push Him aside.
• In God’s system, you get rich by entrustment.
• If you are not aligned with Him, you cannot be entrusted.
• The problem with many christians is that when they are praying, they heard and see nothing.
• You need to invoke every aspect of the covenant for God to step in.
• If God is going to take over your battles, there is a position you must take.
• To God, being still is a proof of faith in Him.
• If you are shaking, it means you are in action.
• How can you and God both be in action?
• The proof that you don’t believe God is that you are still afraid, conscious of your enemy and problem.
• The word of the Lord changes seasons.
• It is the speakings of prophets that make people prosper.
• Don’t dilute the word of the Lord by your human expectations.

• God wants to create systems through men – that is, by men living larger than themselves they create a pattern which can be referred to others.
• It is one thing to sit on the throne and it is another to have a mindset to sustain your enthronement.
• In order for David not to turn out like Saul, God wanted him to pick some lessons from the life of Saul.
• God wanted him to see how tormenting a life without the spirit is. • He also wanted him to see the wisdom that it takes to run the palace because that could not be conveyed through the anointing.
• The anointing inside you is powerful, it is the anointing that will make you become powerful without adulteration to the success.
• David had great respect for the anointing.
• He came to an understanding that if you are anointed, you can’t fall like a mere man.
• Despite many of us being anointed, our impact is unfelt.
• It is because we have neglected the anointing within which should teach us on how to relate with God.
1 Sam 10:1
• If you understand that you have been anointed as captain over God’s inheritance, will you be duping them by telling them to bring money in order to be healed.
• If it is the Lord’s inheritance, you don’t have to worry about enemies.
• Only heaven will tell us how many people have been killed for our sake.
• You don’t work for an inheritance, it is entrusted to you.
2 Sam 7:10
• Heaven values order (1 Cor 14:40).
• Our attitude towards the anointing needs to change.
• Attitude: a settled way of thinking or feeling about something.
• Your settled thinking towards God is the reason why you will go up or not go up.
• When a man in his walk with God has come to a point where he comes under rules, God can elevate him to a ruler.
• Is God the only one who is foolish and has no rules?
• The relationship where God can say that whoever touches you touches Him is not just because you are a child of God, it is because you have come to a point where you are truly submissive to him.
Acts 9:1-16
• Sound is a transport system.
• Have you ever come across a magician who doesn’t speak?
• Let us move away from simply asking for forgiveness for sin and seek a real solution.
• A real solution will have to do with (1) a change of mindset about how we view this God and (2) a change of heart.
• Many times , our “I am sorry” does not result in behaviour change.
• Attitude is everything.
• Who is God to you?
• If you are aware of what God means to you, will your behaviour continue the way it is?
• People can be in church looking for God to intervene for breakthrough to happen to them when God’s rules mean nothing to them.
• Anyone can have excuses.
• Excuses are a sign of irresponsibility.
• Enthronement is not for your excitement, it is an entrustment.
• Satan is a spoiler. He has been spoiling people’s parties for a long time.
Ezek 36:26, 2 Tim 1:7, Isa 6:6
• God didn’t make David to be sinless but made him to be a man who hated sin.
• If at the present level of the blessing, you are misbehaving, God has already seen that you are a danger and cannot be entrusted with more because it can destroy you.
• The best thing we can do for ourselves is to choose to submit.
• We have submitted to many authorities in our lives, why should choosing to submit to God be an issue?
• Let’s take advantage of lasting solutions to things.
• If we don’t get there, we are not ready for our next level of enthronement.
• If God knows that if he enthrones you a little bit with money there are several homes that will be broken, is it not in his best interests to keep you where you are?
• A man who is fully submitted to the devil will advance God’s kingdom while a man who is fully submitted to God will advance God’s kingdom.
• God wants to entrust us.
Phili 2:5-9, 1 Sam 16:14, Psa 51:8-18
• We must have the correct attitude towards God.
• God is not somebody we need for our breakthroughs, He is somebody we need to express what we came for here on earth.

John 12:24
• Sacrifice is what brings about a new realm of fruitfulness and multiplication.
• If the seed doesn’t die there is no future.
Mat 20:21-23
• Whether it is in the kingdom of darkness or the kingdom of God, sacrifice brings people into more power than anything else.
• God and satan will both commit more power to those who are sacrificial.
• The problem most christians have is that the devil has made it that we should not cross certain lines because we are not willing to sacrifice a little to cross them.
• If you’re vying for a certain authority and are not willing to sacrifice to get there while your contenders are sacrificing, they will get there because their sacrifice will speak louder.
• A man that is dying today can have a new lease of life because of sacrifice.
2 Kings 3:17-18, 27
• Not everything answers to prayer.
• Nothing is secure until it is secured by God.
• If devilish people do certain things which show commit to their god while you don’t do anything, you will be defeated.
• There are certain things you do unto that God you claim you love that He prompts you to do. When you do that, even devils are afraid of you.
• If you refuse to donate your life, very soon you will be on your own.
• Many christians have left nothing and so there are certain realms that they can’t access (Mark 10:29).
• If Jesus refused to pay the sacrifice, He wouldn’t have become what He is today.
• Power is generated on the altar of sacrifice.
• Sacrifice is a token of your faith in the finished work of Jesus.
Phili 3:10, Mat 17:21, Mark 10:29
• Why should the God you don’t sacrifice to defend you?
• God does not step into our affairs anyhow the way people think.
• There are laws that govern the spirit realm.
• If non-believers have done the right thing while you have done the wrong thing, they will prevail. This is why many christians are unprofitable.
• We can’t draw power because we are attached to things.
• What is it that God can ask you that you can easily give?
• Before God can ask you for anything He is first asking for you.
Est 4:16

• We live in a dreamer’s world.
• Can any man cause himself to dream? No.
Jer 29:11
• God has a plan for every one of us, it is our duty to discover it.
• The plan God has for you is called your purpose.
• If the plan is with God, it means you need to get it from God through His ordained systems.
• A person who is not born again is far from discovering their purpose.
• What we call purpose is actually God’s vision for you.
• VISION, not ambition.
Hab 2:1-2
• God will assess you based on what He has given to you as vision.
• A vision can be a product of desire, dreams, imagination and divine encounters.
• Only those with dreams dominate their world.
• Those who do not have dreams live carelessly (Prov 29:18)
• Vision sets the pace for your destination.
• Vision is what makes a person to be precise about why he lives.

• Check in your heart and go on a search.
• Find the talent and gift inside you and around you.
• God has given each one of us talents.
• Your talent will give you space among the greats.

2. Identify your passion
• What are you passionate about? It could be an indication of your purpose.
• Your passion could be an indication of what you came here for.
• Moses had already been driven by the passion to set the Israelites free, long before God appeared to Him.
• Nehemiah had a passion to see the house of God rebuilt.
• Many are waiting to be spoken to by God when they already have passion inside them.

• Passion could be something that you like doing or something that makes you feel unhappy when you see it e.g pain when you see children living on the streets.

3. Knowing your calling

Why is it important to seek vision?
1. It is the way to escape perishing (Prov 29:18)
2. To secure your destiny (Prov 14:12)
• If you don’t know what you are supposed to do, anything will look right to you.

3. Vision is higher than your own plan (Jer 29:11, Isa 55:8)

4. In order for you to have divine backing (1 Thess 5:24)
• When He is the one who has shown you what you should be doing, He will help you to fulfill it.

5. You enjoy angelic ministration and guidance (Exo23:20)
• When you have located vision, you are entitled to be guided by angels to get there.

6. You enjoy favour (Gen 39:5-6)

Characteristics of a vision from God.
1. Every vision from God drives the visionary
• Every morning, you wake up with energy to pursue the vision.
• Wherever you see carelessness, it is either someone has not discovered their vision or has not developed the ability to pursue it.

2. It gives you confidence (Acts 26:19)
3. Every true vision guarantees results once pursued (1 Kings 8:15)
4. Divine presence (Psa 23:1-6)

Luke 18:1, Rev 4:1
• There is an enemy called the devil whose job in heaven was to be a covering cherub.
• In most cases, many people are covered.
• Vision is not a once and for all thing.
• From time to time you will need corrections.
• You can never have these corrections if you are not a seeker of God.
• As a child of God, if you are prayerless, confusion will be your portion.
• You need to be prayerful and full of the word so that you keep hearing when He speaks.
• Don’t have an excuse that you are young, keep doing the right things.
Acts 9:5
• Prayer fuels visions and revelations (Jer 33:3), it gets you closer to your vision.
• You might not know right now, but as you pray, even the hidden talents you had will be uncovered.
• Don’t say “everyone is doing it,” you are not everybody.
• When you don’t have a vision, anybody can lead you in whichever direction.
• What is called vision is also called your assignment.
• When you locate your assignment you have also located all the money that you need.
