1) Focus.
2) Change your goal into a target when this is achieved your internal resources are unconsciously working 24hrs to find how to make it happen.
3) Suspend disbelief.
4) Rely on unseen forces and pursue your dreams.
5) Learn from your mistakes, you will make some.
6) Build allies understand the power of right relationships and seek them out.
7) Open your gifts (unknown potential).
8) Make your move before you are ready.
9) Do it your way: every action must not be controlled by external forces. You must have a witness within before you act.
10) Recycle the best ideas on earth.
Focus
Focus is magical. The things that give great results are always very few. The secret is finding those things that are really powerful and truly pivotal. Those things that make the difference between success and failure, and doing those things only. Care about those things. Care about nothing else. Do those things. Do nothing else, to the extent that you can focus your work and life on the areas where the payback factor is huge.
The principle holds true regardless of the task or challenges at hand. The first step is to figure out the few vital things in any task most things that are done don’t matter, but a few things matter a great deal. If you are given a task, only a few things stand a chance of producing extraordinary results, so focus on those things. The next step is to cut out everything else. We always seem to be short on resources i.e. time, money, etc. we are not, we are just not focused.
Next time you have an important assignment or objective, work out a way to crack it and stop doing anything else. By abandoning the low pay-off efforts, and unrelated activities, you free up precious time you can use to do much more of the things that really matter.. Pastor Poju Oyemade

The Quantum Leap

The quantum leap is a term taken from the vocabulary of modern or quantum physics, it describes a phenomenon observed in matter. This leap occurs when a particle of matter makes an explosive jump. It moves out of its circulating orbit in an unpredictable way and moves into a higher orbit. A particle undergoes this process when it moves from one place to another without covering the usual steps or levels. This explosive jump is without any apparent effort on the part of the particle. It’s as though it received a fresh burst of energy from external forces that caused it to make that jump. The quantum leap is also a scientific term for breakthrough. This phenomenon is the principle behind breakthroughs in science that gave rise to computers, lasers, etc.
You can jump into a higher orbit of achievement and improve the level of your performance and rate of achievement. It means you go far beyond the next logical step. It is the concept behind stunning advances. It is about multiplying productivity rather than just increasing it. We all know and have seen people who make that jump in their careers, business, ministry etc. It seems that it happens by chance, but nothing happens that way. What are the principles behind such a leap? If we make compromises and study, we will glean some things. What are the core conditions that must be fulfilled before you can experience a quantum leap?
Change as a Strategy instead of a self-imposed Trap
The moves you make in leveraging your effectiveness in an exponential way are not common place ideas. Unconventional success calls for unconventional methods. They are not difficult but are rare. We are creatures of habit and social creatures we go with the flow and rely on behaviour that has worked best in the past. Once we do something and take an approach that worked in the past we become attached to it. We don’t let go of that habit pattern. We remain with this approach until there is some overdependence on the strategy and tactics involved. Once we get into a social circle, we stay within that orbit, whether it is positive or negative for we are social creatures. You rely on these structures until your performance flattens out and sags, then you start trying harder, putting in more work. The law of diminishing return sets in, the harder you try the less the returns you get from the effort you put in. Faith in the familiar sets the trap of the familiar.
To make the leap, you have to break out of the rut. Overcome your addiction to your old methodology. The quantum leap strategy is based on uncommon sense. People try harder at what they do and know to get a breakthrough. The quantum leap is something you have been keeping from happening and not so much what you struggle to make happen. It is a fresh perspective, a deft move, something different.
Arrested Development and the Trap
A lot of people instead of making the quantum leap when the time comes, they actually arrest their development. Arrested development occurs when you stay with what worked in the past, even when the environment demands a change. People get bitter when the pattern changes. You can arrest the development of an animal by caging it in its youth. When you get offended, you refuse to participate further because it wasn’t played on your terms and your development gets arrested.
We need to understand that adversity brings this energy. The outburst of pace and advancement can come from challenging situations where the patterns have changed. Adversity, should be seen as energy bottled up, begging to be directed for breakthrough results.
To make the quantum leap, you need to start seeing the world differently so that other possibilities that exist can materialise. The principles behind the quantum leap are equations for stunning advancement and fulfillment of dreams.. Pastor Poju Oyemade

Acquiring Revelation from God
How do you get to the point where you are able to capture revelation from God about any given situation? In practical terms, the Bible says, ‘now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place (2Cor 2:14). God causes us to triumph in Christ Jesus, and then He makes manifest through us the savour of His knowledge. What this means is that in any situation, God causes us to first celebrate the victory of Jesus Christ i.e. in all situations we are victorious. Jesus Christ has overcome, therefore we should stand still, for the solution is here and is accessible. So we need to first stand still and rejoice in the victory of Jesus.
And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things (Ps 45:s4). This means a man that begins to offer up praise is setting himself up for revelation from God. So, in any circumstance where you find yourself, the first thing to do is that you need to celebrate the victory of Jesus. The second thing you need to understand, is that He will make manifest the savour of His knowledge by you, in every place and that particular challenge as well. There is also a certain knowledge that He wants to impart in that given situation that is actually going to cause the manifestation of victory. The translation of that victory from the spiritual realm to the natural in your life depends on the knowledge you have acquired. It is that knowledge you need to come in contact with in your life concerning any situation in order for change to come... Pastor Poju Oyemade

Your words as a breach in the spirit
Words can cause a gap in the spirit realm when they are not consistent with what you want to happen in your life. When this is the situation, even prayer cannot make these things happen. Although the resources are available in the unseen realm to make it manifest, the breach caused through your words will not enlist angelic assistance. Spoken words are the ladder that connect heaven and earth. When the gap is bridged angelic activity occurs.
You must understand the power of your words in order to do things the right way. Furthermore, you must also ensure that you do not have any idols that have replaced God in your life. One of the ways to do this is to ensure that it is ONLY God that knows the intimate details of your life. When you worship and praise Him and you will see His salvation in every aspect. (Matthew 18:19)
Joshua 1:8 clearly states, ‘this book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. (KJV) According to the passage above, success is a result of doing everything that concerns an issue i.e. not part but all. For instance, failure occurs in an examination because the individual did not know the answer to the questions posed. So, you must know the answer to the questions that life asks of you at every point in time.
2 Corinthians 2:14 states, ‘Now thanks be unto God which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of His knowledge by us in every place (KJV). It is the knowledge given to us that makes us victorious. In Colossians 1:9 Paul asked that God fill the Colossians with the exact and precise knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. One of the ways we attain this knowledge is by keeping the Word on our lips so that we meditate on it, know it and then do it.. Pastor Poju Oyemade

Understanding the Kingdom and Operating in it.
Jesus explained that without understanding the parable of the seed (Matthew 13:3-8), it would not be possible to understand how to operate in God’s kingdom. The seed of the kingdom of God is the Word of God. Thus, the start of God’s work in anyone’s life, begins with His Word. In any situation that you find yourself you must locate the relevant Word for it and sow it inside your heart. If one does not understand this process, the individual will look for the external manifestation rather than understand the internal process that has begun once the seed has been planted.
It is the Word sown that produces thirty, forty, sixty and a hundred fold. (Matthew 13: 18-23). Unfortunately, because people do not understand the procedure, they try and get the results that they have not planted the Word for through prayer. This is rather like a farmer trying to harvest what he did not plant! Simply put if you do not plant anything in your heart you cannot harvest any results outwardly.
Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness and receive with meekness the engrafted Word which is able to save your soul (James 1:21)(KJV). It is the Word that produces results time and time again. So mightily grew the Word of God and it prevailed. (Acts 19:20). Once you receive the revelation, through prayer you must keep the Word constantly before you i.e., the Word inside the heart and on the lips produces the results God ordained for each and every situation, producing signs and wonders every single time...

The Essence in Exchange for Results
To be able to get tangible results in life you must start the process by stirring up your spirit. (2 timothy 1:6-7) Once the spirit is stirred up you then continue by meditation. You read the Word, confess it and think upon what you have read. This is the process of meditation and you are effectively giving the right substance in exchange for the result you desire.
During this period God begins to unveil what has been deposited through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. Through confession of the Word access is granted to these mysteries. Thus, meditation and confession of the Word causes a revelation for the situation (i.e. Rhema) and the necessary steps to take unfold.
It is not about begging God, but rather about appropriating what has been done in Christ. The bible says in 2Corinthians 5:18 …and all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself by Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation. You must remember that it is your confession that determines your personal experience with God. So when a situation emerges in your life it is the words that have been spoken (consistently) prior to the time of prayer that determines the outcome.
When you personalise the gospel, you become an example to others and the covenant is made flesh in your life. If you do not try to bypass this process you will always produce lasting results that will stand the test of time... Pastor Poju Oyemade

The Power of Choice
When the Israelites had to go to war with Amalek, Moses demonstrated the importance that making the right choice(s) had to play in the scheme of things and Moses said unto Joshua, choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand (Exodus 17:9). If the right warriors had not been chosen for the battle, it would have been lost. Declaring the Word then would have been a lost cause since the conditions for victory had not been fully satisfied. Like the saying, a bad workman blames his tools if the wrong workmen (i.e. soldiers) had been chosen to go into battle, there would have been no victory.
You must understand that the power to choose is yours and you have to use it in your life. You must exercise this power not only through decisions (but also through the various choices you make), because there’s a difference between deciding to do something and choosing to do that same thing. People make decisions based on influence (i.e. environment, people, feelings etc whilst choices are made from the gut or instinct). So Moses instructed Joshua to choose men that he was comfortable with rather than those he ‘thought’ fit or was pressurised to pick.
For instance, there may be certain people you should not be closely associated with but as a result of various things this is not the case. In spiritual matters if you relate closely with the wrong people, the right things will not happen to you (e.g. people that are quick to praise you but whose hearts are not with you). When you are involved with these types of associations you will discover that the Word will not work the way it ought to in your life. God’s promise in the book of Isaiah is, ‘thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth of thee,’ (Isaiah 49:17) This becomes the reality when you choose (from instinct) rather than make decisions (based on people and circumstances)...
