Number one, God wants you to be spiritually empowered. God wants to be spiritually empowered so that as a child of God, you will understand who you are. You will understand the price that Jesus has paid. You will understand the power that is available to you so that you can walk in dominion and walk in the realm that God wants you to walk in."

3. "God is your source. Now, listen. Once you understand that God is your source, you will no more put your trust in what you are doing. You will put your trust in the God that is your source because God can decide to change what he is using to supply. Hello? That's why, you see, a lot of people, when they lose their job, they get sad. Why? They are sad when they lose their job because they believe that their job is their source. And once they lose their job, they go, I've lost my job. No, you've lost your job but you have not lost your God." [19:02](

4. "The kingdom of God is the purpose for wealth. The kingdom of God is the purpose for wealth. He says, I'm the God that gives you power to get wealth. Why? That I may establish my covenant. One of the challenges we have had in the church this year makes it 33 years in ministry. I've been around for a while and I've seen all kinds of stuff. And years ago, about 20 something years ago, there was a wind of a message all over the body of Christ called the prosperity. But what you did not realize is that most of what was called the prosperity gospel was nothing but the gospel of materialism." [21:33](

5. "Addiction to God and his kingdom is a trigger for kingdom wealth. Addiction to God and his kingdom is a trigger for kingdom wealth. The Bible says, I said it before. The kingdom of God and his righteousness. You have to become addicted to the kingdom. Addicted to the will of God. Addicted to the ways of God. Because in this kingdom, there is a connection between worship and wealth, intimacy and income. Because you are either in the secret court or you are in the secret place. Those who dwell in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." [40:42](

1. "So when you look at nations of the earth, you'll find out that all over the world, it is small businesses that grow the economy. It's not the job of the government to prosper you. The job of the government is to create an enabling environment and put infrastructures in place so that small businesses can thrive. And that's why we need entrepreneurship so that we can begin to build the next dimension of what God wants us to be." [03:37](

2. "So when you see people sleep and wake up, it's not because they have faith. When you see people sleep and wake up, it's not because they are serving God. It's because God created them. And his long-suffering towards us is that all men shall be saved. Now, by virtue of the fact that he is the creator, what he now did is that he understands that for anything, for anything to have longevity, there has to be systems and structures in place. So when God created you from day one, there are systems and structures in place in you to make happen what need to happen without any extra effort of God." [15:06](

3. "So when you now come into the kingdom, the problem with many of us is when we come into the kingdom, we have now forgotten that we have been translated. Someone say translated. Now, if you relocate now from Lagos to the UK or you relocate to Canada, now, the very minute you relocate, a lot of things changes. You have been translated. Once you relocate to the UK, the currency changes, the geography changes, the way you drive the car changes. Now, you cannot say because you have spent 35 years in Nigeria and then you get into the UK and then you are arguing with Pounce and say, I don't care what people believe." [18:03](

4. "So when God tries you with little, if you are not faithful in little, to look sustained, who will give you much? So when he tries you with a little and you fail, he says to himself, I can't trust this one with the next one. So most of the time, the reason why you are where you are, poor, is because God loves you. You say, ah, what do you mean by that? Because he, let me give you an example. Let me show you from Bible. So they were in the garden, right? And everything in the garden was at their disposal. And he says, everything here you can eat, but this one, don't touch. Everything that God tells you not to touch is the one that attracts you more." [37:23](

5. "So when God looks at you and sees that you are addicted to the kingdom, he's so excited because that addiction leads you into a place where the world begins to fall. It's going to unfold. Listen to this. The spirit of the addiction provides for the addiction. Whatever you are addicted to, the spirit behind what you are addicted to is what provides for you. Listen to me. A drunkard can wake up early in the morning without money and by 6 p.m. in the evening, he says, Mama Carol, I have to go to Teresa Bar." [46:32](
