THE POWER TO MOVE TO YOUR NEXT LEVEL
MOVING TO YOUR NEXT LEVEL
6 “The LORD our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying: ‘You have dwelt long enough at this mountain. 7 Turn and take your journey, and go to the mountains of the Amorites, to all the neighboring places in the plain,[a] in the mountains and in the lowland, in the South and on the seacoast, to the land of the Canaanites and to Lebanon, as far as the great river, the River Euphrates.
Many are going in cycles in life. They are still dealing with the same old issue year in and year out. There are a lot of people who have settled with defeat, poverty, sickness in their lives but this is the time to decide to be free and move to your next level.
Moving to the next level means achieving greater heights, making steady and consistent progress in life, having sustainable or irreversible progress in life, to move from one level to the other. This year the grace to move from where you are to the place you desire to be will be imparted upon your life.
When you settle down around your challenges and don’t move to your next level, your life become stagnant, you become ordinary and even common people will despise you. God expects you to move to your next level this year in every area of your life.
There are several things to do to move your next level. Here some few keys that can empower you to move to your next level;
1. Decide to go to the next level.
2. Have a vision for the next level
3. Develop your skills
4. Get knowledge about the next level
You will make it in Jesus name.

THE POWER OF HEROIC FAITH- 2
THE POWER OF HEROIC FAITH- 2
Hebrews 6:12
12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
This is the secret of any great men in the kingdom both contemporary or dead. All the great men in the kingdom of God possessed heroic faith.
WHAT IS HEROIC FAITH?
It's the faith that chooses to embrace as a priority the advancement of the kingdom of God, kingdom agenda, kingdom vision with the resolve to overcome hardships, hindrances, oppositions knowing that God will reward me.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I USE MY FAITH FOR KINGDOM PROJECTS.
Job 36:11
11 If they obey and serve[ him], they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
It's the consistent order of God that if I use my faith for the kingdom, blessings follow.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT USING YOUR FAITH FOR KINGDOM PROMOTION
1, YOU RUN THE DANGER OF GOD BLOCKING SOME OPPORTUNITIES IN YOUR LIFE
2, GOD WILL RAISE A REPLACEMENT RIGHT BEFORE YOU WHO CAN DO WHAT YOU ARE MEANT TO DO.
3, YOU WILL ROB A GENERATION OF THEIR BLESSING.
4, YOU WILL NOT EXPERIENCE THE BREAKTHROUGH THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE
HOW DO I GET BACK ON TRACK IF I HAVE NOT USED MY FAITH.
1, ELIMINATION- remove every form of hindrances from your life so you can obey God fully
2, EXPECTATION- know and expect the best after I have invested my best into the kingdom.
3, ENDURANCE- stay with it. Deal with immature folks. I have seen people who tell me, Pastor God brought me here but a little discomfort then they change their mind.
ENTITLEMENT- can go to God and make some claims and get access to his blessing.
YOU CAN USE YOUR FAITH TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE KINGDOM
2 Kings 12:4-5
4 And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things that is brought into the house of the Lord,[ even] the money of every one that passeth[ the account], the money that every man is set at,[ and] all the money that cometh into any man's heart to bring into the house of the LORD, 5 Let the priests take[ it] to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the breaches of the house, wheresoever any breach shall be found.
Hebrews 6:12
12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

HOW TO TURN YOUR IDEAS INTO INCOME
HOW TO TURN YOUR IDEAS INTO INCOME
2 Kings 4:1-7
Chapter 4
1 Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the Lord: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen. 2 And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil. 3 Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours,[ even] empty vessels; borrow not a few. 4 And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full. 5 So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought[ the vessels] to her; and she poured out. 6 And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her,[ There is] not a vessel more. And the oil stayed. 7 Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.
This widow had a financial problem. The creditors had come to take the children. She didn't go to Elisha for money but for wisdom to come out of her financial problem.
ELISHA GAVE THE WOMAN A GODLY IDEA WHICH HAS THE CAPACITY TO CHANGE HER FINANCIAL DESTINY.
You never suffer from Money problem but you suffer from idea an problem
Ideas are the beginning points of all fortunes
A small idea is the birth place of great accomplishments
Our greatest lack is not money for any undertaking, but rather ideas, if the ideas are good, cash will somehow flow to where it is needed.
Everything begins with an idea
Ideas are the roots of creation
God never gives you an idea without he giving you the power to make
it happen.
Proverbs 18:15
The intelligent man is always open to new ideas, infact he looks for them.
The average man at least stumbles upon 4 major ideas which when acted upon could lead to vast wealth
IDEAS ARE RECIEVED
IDEAS ARE FRAGILE
IDEAS ARE SENSITIVE
HOW DO TURN YOUR IDEAS INTO INCOME
1, SEIZE THE IDEA- decide on which idea you would want to pursue
2, SEARCH THE IDEA- you must investigate if the idea has the capacity to fly
3, START SMALL- master the courage to start. Many people are not able to take off because of fear of failure.
10 REASONS WHY YOU MUST START SMALL.
1, it provides you with experience and confidence with a small operation.
2, you are able to monitor and observe progress
3, you make mistakes in a small scale and unnoticed by many people
4 you can experiment and adapt quickly
5 you avoid waste with small scale
6 you can respond faster to situations
7, you have greater flexibility
8 you don't need much capital to start something small
9 it become easier to raise capital once you have started
10, you can generate better ways of doing things.
