Today Pst Abel Mutinda continued the Keys of the Kingdom โ and gave us two keys that are the blueprint for greatness and the law that governs what we attract and repel in life.
"The kingdom of God does not operate by feelings or emotions. It operates by principles and spiritual laws. And if you understand these two keys โ your life will never be the same."
๐ Philippians 2:5โ8 | Mark 10:43โ45 | 2 Kings 3:11 | Joshua 1:1 | Mark 6:1โ6 | Romans 13:1 | Malachi 1:6

Kingdom service is willingly using your life, gifts, time, resources, and position to advance God's purposes. And Pastor Abel said it plainly:
๐๐ฉ๐ช๐ด ๐ช๐ด ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฑ๐ข๐ต๐ฉ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐จ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ด๐ด.
"Don't waste your time praying 'Oh God, lift me. Oh God, make me great.' If you are making such a prayer, you are still a child. You don't understand the kingdom. Because the kingdom operates by principles โ and there is a principle that makes men great."
"๐ช๐ต๐ผ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐บ๐ผ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ผ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐น๐น ๐ฏ๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐." (Mark 10:43)
Jesus โ being in the very form of God โ made himself of no reputation and took the form of a bond servant. (Philippians 2:5โ7) The thing that stops men from serving is reputation. The fear of what people will think. Lay it aside.

๐พ ๐๐น๐ถ๐๐ต๐ฎ โ He was a successful farmer. He left his occupation and followed Elijah โ not as an assistant prophet. As a servant. When his name later came before kings, the only introduction given was: "Elisha โ who poured water on the hands of Elijah." (2 Kings 3:11) That is how great men are described in the kingdom: by who they served. Impartations don't happen at public conferences. They happen at the place of service. The mantle of Elijah fell on Elisha when they were alone โ just two of them.
โบ ๐๐ผ๐๐ต๐๐ฎ โ The Bible describes him simply as "his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, who did not depart from the tabernacle." (Exodus 33:11) He was always there. Arranging. Sweeping. Setting up. And when Moses died, the first words from God were: "Now arise โ you and all this people, go over to the land which I am giving them." (Joshua 1:1โ2) Greatness found him at the place of service.

"Whatever you honor, you attract. Whatever you dishonor, you repel. Almost every failure in life can be attributed to dishonor."
Honor means to respect or treat as uncommon what God has called sacred. It is a spiritual law โ and like gravity, it works whether you believe it or not.

Jesus went to his hometown. People knew him as the carpenter's son. They were offended. And because of their dishonor โ "He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them." (Mark 6:5) The same Jesus who raised the dead, who multiplied loaves, who walked on water โ was limited in Nazareth. Not by lack of power. By dishonor.

๐ญ. ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐ฑ โ with your offerings, tithes, firstfruits, and time. When you withhold what belongs to God, you are dishonoring Him. And that dishonor has consequences. (Malachi 1:6)
๐ฎ. ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ผ๐ฟ ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ผ๐ฑ โ "Esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake." (1 Thess 5:12โ13) When you dishonor a man of God, you are dishonoring the God who sent him. The Shunammite woman recognized, honored, and made provision for Elisha โ and by that honor, she received the miracle of a son.
๐ฏ. ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ด๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ป๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ โ even if you didn't vote for it. "There is no authority except from God." (Romans 13:1) When you resist governing authority, you resist the ordinance of God. When you dishonor leaders, you repel the kind of governance and blessing that flows through them.
๐ฐ. ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ โ That person is the instrument God is using to pay your rent and your bills. Serve them not with eye-service but as unto Christ. (Ephesians 6:5โ8)
๐ฑ. ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ โ both father AND mother. Don't honor one and neglect the other. The promise attached is life and length of days. (Ephesians 6:1โ3)
๐ฒ. ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐๐ฎ๐น ๐ณ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ โ Don't talk evil of your pastor. Don't treat as common what God has placed over your life.
๐ณ. ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐ฑ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฑ โ Marriage (Hebrews 13:4). Church gatherings. Fellow believers. The word of God. Don't speak evil against the institution of marriage on social media or in private โ whatever you dishonor you push away. And whatever you honor, you draw closer to yourself.
๐ฌ ๐๐น๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ด๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐๐๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ฏ๐ฒ๐น:
"Be very careful how you speak. Don't be casual. Don't be casual. These are not emotions โ this is a point of relating with the things of God with honor."
"Service. Honor. Service. Honor. These are my secrets. And every time I see an opportunity to serve, I serve โ with a pure and clean heart."
If this word has opened your eyes today, drop an AMEN. And share it with someone who is still wondering why certain things keep running away from them. The answer might be honor. ๐๐
