Book Cover & Preview Text
People of the kingdom of God should understand that there is a gulf fixed between the kingdom of God and the world system. The two systems do not meet, mix or match. The two has very little in common. ********** Kingdom relationship The kingdom of God is a heavenly entity that is placed in the heart of believers, by God, at conversion. The kingdom of God is, also, known as the kingdom of heaven because it came to earth from God out of heaven. It is governed and ruled by the Holy Sprit; therefore, its laws, rules, principles and values are different from the laws which govern the world’s system. People belonging to the kingdom of God are supposed to show the people of the world, God’s way of doing things in the earth. ********** While you cannot stop the light from shining into you; you can certainly, stop it from shining from you; unfortunately, most of us are guilty of that: (not letting the light of Christ shine through us). When Jesus walked the earth among men, he said: …I am the light of the world… (Jn. 8:12). Now, we are his children (sons and daughters) sent forth into the world to represent his kingdom; the light that anyone will see in us, is not really our light; the light comes from God. (See Jn. 12:36). Jesus also made it clear …for without me ye can do nothing (Jn. 15:5b). If Jesus is in you, his light should emanate from you; it’s up to you to let his light shine through you and from you, so that others may see how to find their way out of darkness into the kingdom of light because of the light they see in you! ********** Pressing into God’s kingdom with passion is the kind of attitude that is birthed out of a passion for purpose! If you know your purpose, your passion for your purpose will propel you into your destiny; getting there is totally up to you. ********** Your greatest anointing is in your divine purpose. You will not fulfill your assignment to minister, until you are walking in the character of your purpose. It doesn’t matter how well you do what you are doing, if you’re not walking in your divine assignment, you will, eventually, experience spiritual dryness or a void of purpose! You will not have a divine passion to do what has not been divinely, assigned to you. ********** You should always fight harder to enter into your purpose, than you do to come out of your conflict. If you enter into your purpose, your conflict will be subject to your anointing. Your conflict usually becomes stronger when you are mindful of its presence; especially, if you choose to use depressing words to address the conflicts; for instance, “I’ll never get out of this situation.” “I’ve been broke all of my life.” “If it wasn’t for bad luck, I won’t have any luck at all!” Besides, it’s always harder to see where you are going, if you’re constantly focusing on where you are, or where you are coming from. ********** One’s determination to stay focus while pressing into his purpose is locked into his motives to achieve his goals. His progress will depend on how important his goals are to him. His achievements will be the result of his passion. All efforts to achieve any goal will require self- discipline, if he/she expects to reach their desired goal. Where there is no discipline, it is sure to be excuses, slackness, procrastination, laziness and carelessness. When these characteristics are present, and are prevalent in a believer’s life, they are sure to slow down or stop his progress: and if these behaviors are not put in check, they will cause all visions, dreams and goals to cease. If one expects to win in life, one might need to “kick- it-up a notch”, or else, failure is knocking at his door! ********** You should always have a greater desire to establish your character, than to enjoy your prosperity. Your good character with integrity will take you places your wealth will only dream of going! ********** God’s divine purpose For he [God] hath made him [Jesus] to be made sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (2Cor. 5:21). God became what he despised, so he could bring us into what he really admires, to give us an expected end, with a true identity, having a divine purpose in his heart for us. We have inherited Christ’s nature, his character, his image, his glory, his honor and his life. Every believer should know that Jesus not only died for the sinner; he died as the sinner. He became sin, that we might become righteous. If I might also add: Jesus not only gave his life for us, he also gave his life to us. He not only shed his blood for us; God took Jesus’ blood as a ransom to purchase our redemption. His life was not only sacrificed for us, his life was also a gift to us; we can receive it or leave it; certainly, we did not earn it, neither did we deserved it; we inherited it! What Jesus did for us could never be matched, paid for or substituted. I, therefore, have gladly accepted and proudly, embraced the gift God gave to us, when he took off his robe of righteousness and gave it to us; he put on our garment of sin, and then died because of the garment He wore, which rightfully, belonged to us. Our ultimate inheritance is the kingdom of God, which came from heaven, and was introduced and placed into the hearts of the believers to perform a work in the earth, and when the kingdom work is finished, it will return to heaven carrying all true believers with it.

About the Book
Over the years I have collected and accumulated a number of, what I call: “Bits and Pieces of Kingdom Wisdom and Revelations.” This book contains some of my favorite, power pack, key words of wisdom and revelations. As you read you will understand my reason for using this title. The little bits and pieces in this book will, either, add too, or change your concept about certain views in Christendom and kingdom insight. The title of this book is not mentioned throughout the book; in reading you will, also, understand why. For instance, this book is not written with much detail, or with exhaustive information about any particular subject. Most of my views are short with a proverbial fl avor; this means, that sometimes it may seem as if you are actually, reading proverbs. Some of these sayings might be viewed as, idioms, motto and some, as I said, have the fl avor of a proverb, which from a kingdom perspective, I believe, fit the messages in this book perfectly. Most of these proverbial sayings were conceived in my spirit and were birthed by the Holy Spirit, often times, when I was in prayer. Many years have passed since I started recording these sayings. I believe this book of Spirit filled wisdom should’ve been blessing people everywhere long ago. My greatest desire for this book is that every reader will discover a greater passion for purpose, and a greater desire to grow in kingdom revelation, which will be beneficial for kingdom living. This book contains a wealth of, what I believe to be: wise spiritual snacks, lunch and occasionally, readers might discover a full meal to dine on, which is—without a doubt—good for the spirit, soul and body.
About the Author
It was my call to ministry that humbled me, and has compelled, and propelled my heart to many hours of prayer; which is what forced me into God’s presence, and it was also there, where this book was actually birth. It was my ministry and the hundreds of hours of prayer, over the past twenty-nine years plus, that have pushed me. Even though, when I first started out, many thought—and some seemed satisfied to make it known—that I did not have enough experience to pastor a church: especially, after being saved for only a year; neither did Moses have experience, when God called him to lead his people out of Egypt, but God used him! I enjoy receiving the short sayings of wisdom and revelation, which the Lord usually gives to me, each time I enter into his presence in prayer. I grew up during a time when the older people were better at speaking a clichés, than those who learned from books. I learned many short sayings of wisdom, over the years; some have help in delivering my soul out of many dangerous situations. I believe the sayings that are in this book, are directly from the heart of God, which is why I also believe they are sure to, motivate, educate and encourage every reader. These sayings are also integrated with kingdom inspiration and are sure to inspire kingdom seekers. Before I forget, I must acknowledge my wife, Mary who employed many hours of proof reading to help make this book what it is. She also helped with the idea to create this cover—great job, Mary! Thanks, with lots of love! So, if you’re ready…, you will need to buckle up; hold on to your spiritual hat; you are about to go for a spiritual ride of a lifetime!
