Are you shining that light?

Dear Kingdom Advancer,

In a world fraught with moral decline, the battle between good and evil has never been more evident.

Every day, you and I witness the disturbing rise of darkness in the mountains of influence/ spheres of influence/ industries/ sectors: families torn apart by divorce, non-biblical marriage principles, and LGBTQ agendas infiltrating our entertainment, including children’s cartoons filled with themes of confusion and nudity.

The arts and entertainment industry, once a vessel for inspiration, now bombards our youth with messages that undermine their values and identity.

In news media, I can't even check my browser in peace without seeing things like" actress this in bikini, check out pictures using the link", why is such news more important these days?

In government and politics, corruption festers like a disease, with leaders crafting policies that serve only their interests, disregarding the future of our nations.

The education sector isn’t spared; classrooms echo with discouragement as teachers in tell students, “You are not smart” based on their grades.

This disheartening narrative perpetuates a cycle of hopelessness and identity distortion among our youth.

Don't let me start with fashion and the vast number of nudity that has perpetuated that place where individuals keep choosing crass instead of class. Cleavages and laps every where...lol.

If I go on and on, I won't finish talking about the problems in our world today but I started from there so that you can see that there's much work to be done and heaven is counting on you and I.

As a Visionary and changemaker of faith that desires to change the world and see Kingdom Agenda advance in your sphere of influence, the times we are in are so critical.

It will shape decades to come, generations unborn and you can't afford to keep quiet or mellow down in your mountain of influence.

The kingdom of God needs your voice.

There's a war between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness.

In fact, there are principalities and powers occupying the various mountains of influence as I write propagating agendas there.

It's more disturbing to see that those of us that belong to the kingdom of God aren't even conscious of the fact that we carry light on our inside and that light isn't supposed to be hidden.

Jesus said in Matthew 5 vs 16 " Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good work and glorify your father in heaven."

Currently, is that the case with you in your sphere of influence?

Have you been living out this scripture?

Have this scripture become fulfilled in your life?

If the answer is no or maybe, then there is more work to be done.

What do I mean by shining your light?

Your light can be likened to your voice.

Have you ever heard people say '' I am searching for my voice".

The holy spirit was saying to me " Your light/ your voice is the solution blueprint I have handed over to you for your generation"

Shining your light is totally personal to you, it can be:

• entering into partnerships to improve the quality of life for people in rural communities in your industry.

• writing that book

• starting up that newsletter

• sharing your thoughts on social media.

• Creating that course.

• Truly becoming that man or woman that God has called you to be.

Regardless of what it means to you,

to truly change the world and advance Kingdom Agenda, It all begins with reckoning that you carry light deposited by God on your inside.

Then moving a step further by shining that light in your mountain of influence/industry/niche.

This is the pathway to convert assets in the spirit realm to products that will elevate the quality of life for humanity, change the world and promote Kingdom Culture in nations and institutions.

Before I leave you today, the question I will like for you to answer honestly is this:

How can you start shining your light in your sphere of influence?

Write out practical steps on how to do that and begin to implement it.

There are mountains of influence in darkness today because you have refused to rise up and play your role in the army that was prophesied by prophet Joel in Joel chapter 2.

Heaven needs your voice on that mountain.

Rise up and take your place there.

It's time to occupy.

What are your thoughts on what has been going on in the world today?

You can share with me in the comment section, I am excited to hear from you.

Your fellow Kingdom Advancer,
