Galatians 5:22-24 'But the fruit of the Spirit [the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.

To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. - Isaiah 8:20 (NKJV)

A life of exploits requires deep knowledge of God (Col. 1:10) and fruitfulness in every good work (John 15:2), built on unwavering diligence (Prov. 22:29) and excellence like Daniel (Dan. 6:3). Those who live by God's principles (Luke 4:16) and cultivate virtue, temperance (1 Cor. 6:12), and patience (Prov. 25:28) stand out. There are 7 key ways to do exploits: consistency (2 Pet. 1:1–8), discipline, virtue, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, and godliness. Without these, like Reuben (Gen. 49:3–4), greatness slips away. True impact demands living by godly customs—not doing what's right in our own eyes (Judg. 17:6).

We are created in the image of God, carrying His divine nature (Gen. 1:26-28). To do exploits, we must add godly virtues to our faith (2 Peter 1:1-5). Obedience is key to unlocking the resources already provided for us (Ps. 68:19). Putting on the new man aligns us with God's purpose (Eph. 4:17-24). With divine nature and virtues, we are empowered to manifest His glory.

Divine resources are spiritual and material gifts from God, given to empower His children to fulfill their destiny (Genesis 22:14, Deuteronomy 8:18). These include faith (Romans 10:17), spiritual gifts, and the power of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8). Eternal life through Christ is the greatest resource (John 3:16, John 17:3). God provides abundantly so we lack nothing for His purpose (2 Corinthians 9:8, Psalm 24:1). Jesus, though rich, became a servant—our model for using divine resources (Philippians 2:7).

Genesis 22:14   'And Abraham called the name of the place, The- Lord -Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”'  

Luke 8:1-3 'Now it came to pass, afterward, that He went through every city and village, preaching and bringing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with Him, and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities—Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons, and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others who provided for Him from their substance.'    

'“And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day. ' Deuteronomy 8:18

Deuteronomy 10:12-13 'And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to observe the Lord 's commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good? '

Mark 14:32-42 Then they came to a place which was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.” 33 And He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He began to be troubled and deeply distressed. 34 Then He said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch.” 35 He went a little farther, and fell on the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him. 36 And He said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for You. Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what You will.” 37 Then He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Could you not watch one hour? 38 Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” 39 Again He went away and prayed, and spoke the same words. 40 And when He returned, He found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy; and they did not know what to answer Him. 41 Then He came the third time and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough! The hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. 42 Rise, let us be going. See, My betrayer is at hand.”

This sermon emphasizes the need for the child of God to grow in their commitment to God. The sermons outlines certain commitments that believers need to go back to.

This sermon emphasizes the need for the child of God to put God first in everything while emphasizing how essential it is to give your first fruit as a believer.   

Luke 22:33-46, Mark 14:32-42 Coming out, He went to the Mount of Olives, as He was accustomed, and His disciples also followed Him. 40 When He came to the place, He said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.” 41 And He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and He knelt down and prayed, 42 saying, “Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.” 43 [a]Then an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him. 44 And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground. 45 When He rose up from prayer, and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow. 46 Then He said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you enter into temptation.”

Knowing we are in the world but not of it we need to understand the difference in building our mindsets to equip us to live the way our King meant for us to live here on earth and to rule. In this sermon, Rev. Roland outlines some key principles for building Kingdom mindsets which will enable the believer to thrive and do exploits.

Why does having a  Kingdom mindset important? What does it benefits do you gain from having the mindset of a Kingdom citizen? Join us as we address these questions and more by Apostle Kingsley

1 Samuel 8:10 - 20 And Samuel told all the words of the Lord unto the people that asked of him a king. 11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots. ...

This sermon emphasizes the need for the child of God to know and read the Word of God and not solely rely on what one hears. Although the word of God abounds in this dispensation, many remain blinded because they refuse to spend time in the Word.  1 Timothy 4: 13 - 16 Till I come, give attention to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership. Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all. Take heed to yourself and to the doctrine. Continue in them, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.

In this engaging Q&A session after an insightful sermon delivery, we dive into thought-provoking questions about the role the mind plays in building kingdom mindsets. Rev. Botchway and the church provide insightful, scripture-backed answers to pressing spiritual concerns, offering clarity and encouragement.  Whether you're seeking wisdom for personal growth or answers to theological questions, this session provides practical guidance and inspiration. Tune in to deepen your faith and gain a greater understanding of God's word.

Psalm 60:11-12 Give us help from trouble, For the help of man is useless. 12 Through God we will do valiantly, For it is He who shall tread down our enemies.

Romans 12: 1 - 2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

This study delves into the reasons why we should not settle as Kingdom citizens and the implications it has on us and the Kingdom of God as a whole.

To truly rise above the noise of the world, you must cleanse yourself of its distractions. Quiet the chaos and strip away the layers of unnecessary influence. In this purity, you will find clarity, where every decision is made with purpose and every action aligns with your highest calling. Understanding the qualifications for each exploit is vital: know what skills, traits, and wisdom are required before stepping forward. Prepare yourself meticulously for every challenge, and only then will you be ready to seize opportunities with confidence and mastery, untouched by the fleeting temptations of the world.

Matthew 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 

Job 32: 1 - 8 So these three men ceased answering Job, because he wasrighteous in his own eyes. Then the wrath of Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, was aroused against Job; his wrath was aroused because he justified himself rather than God. Also against his three friends his wrath was aroused, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job. Now because they were years older than he, Elihu had waited to speak to Job. When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was aroused. So Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, answered and said: “I am young in years, and you are very old; Therefore I was afraid, And dared not declare my opinion to you. I said, ‘Age should speak, And multitude of years should teach wisdom.' But there is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty gives him understanding.

In Understanding Kingdom Exploits Rev Roland defines Kingdom exploits as acts of service that expand God's Kingdom through faith, talent, and anointing. Key demands include steadfast faith, living with purpose, and obedience to God's Word. Kingdom exploits require spiritual dedication, a personal relationship with God, and unwavering covenant practices. This sermon calls believers to impact the world positively, demonstrating integrity and purpose in all areas of life.

Job 12:7-8 '“But now ask the beasts, and they will teach you; And the birds of the air, and they will tell you; Or speak to the earth, and it will teach you; And the fish of the sea will explain to you.'

The strength of the covenant lies in the unwavering presence of God, whose divine presence sustains and empowers the relationship between God and His people. It is through this sacred connection that true life is found—God is the source of all vitality and purpose. In contrast, life apart from God is devoid of meaning and vitality, reduced to mere existence, as it is through Him that all things find their true essence and meaning. Without God's presence, life is not truly alive, but rather, it is a shadow of what it was meant to be. The covenant is a living promise, where God's presence infuses every moment with life, purpose, and fulfillment.

Proverbs 18:21  Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.  

Matthew 26: 6-13 And when Jesus was in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, 7 a woman came to Him having an alabaster flask of very costly fragrant oil, and she poured it on His head as He sat at the table. 8 But when His disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste? 9 For this fragrant oil might have been sold for much and given to the poor.” 10 But when Jesus was aware of it, He said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good work for Me. 11 For you have the poor with you always, but Me you do not have always. 12 For in pouring this fragrant oil on My body, she did it for My burial. 13 Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her.”

In Understanding Kingdom Exploits - Part I (02.02.2025), Apostle Kingsley Ajei-Godson defines Kingdom exploits as acts of service that expand God's Kingdom through faith, talent, and anointing.

The Kingdom Agenda for Exploits is rooted in knowing Jesus and making Him known. It involves understanding God's will, recognizing His sovereignty, and aligning with His divine purpose. Key elements include embracing a Kingdom mindset, seeking God's priorities (Matthew 6:33), and valuing faith and obedience (Hebrews 11:6). Exploits are extraordinary achievements in God's Kingdom, made possible through the empowering of the Holy Spirit. To experience these exploits, believers must understand God's plan and walk in obedience to His commands.

Activating kingdom exploits requires more than just knowledge; it demands understanding and alignment with God's purpose. Seek a deep relationship with God for access to His will and wisdom (Jeremiah 9:23-24, John 15:1-7). Align with His plan, take bold steps, and evaluate your progress regularly. Celebrate both successes and failures, as each offers growth. Kingdom exploits bring personal, societal, and family benefits, impacting lives and advancing God's Kingdom on Earth.
