by Isaiah-Phillips Akintola Understanding Ministry in God’s Kairos Moments. The Burden of The Word. In recent days, I have encountered individuals who are felt weary, worried, and confused about their ministry, particularly around Pastoring. I met someone who said they are going back to secular life. They feel that church and ministry are not working….
The art of intercession is beyond our traditional concept of prayer. It calls us into a deep and profound comprehension of a sacrificial way of lifestyle that collaborates with the forces of heaven to bring about reformation and transformation to society. It flows from a selfless heart, fully and wholly devoted to God’s kingdom purposes and prophetic mandate for man and creation. When we intercede, we step into a sacred calling, standing in the gap in relentless love and courage, aligning earthly realities with the divine will to shift the course of human affairs for individuals, communities, and entire nations.
We cannot build a successful, viable society without the right mindset and system that will make it work. These three elements (vision, mindset, and system) form an inseparable triad that determines whether communities flourish or flounder. The type of mindset we cultivate and the systems we build are not arbitrary choices but must be directly defined by the kind of vision we hold for our society, our family, or our community.

Indecisiveness is often considered a defining characteristic of immaturity. On the other hand, individuals with maturity and strong character demonstrate the ability to make precise, well-considered decisions guided by knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. Many adults today, especially those in some form of leadership positions, often face significant challenges when required to make decisive choices they can support because they’ve thought through them.
The recent claim that Jesus Christ would return on September 22, 2025, represents yet another example of the dangerous pattern of date-setting that has plagued the church throughout history. These false predictions not only contradict clear biblical teaching but also cause confusion and fear among believers, particularly those new to the faith and those who have refused to yield themselves to the spiritual nourishment found in God’s Word. This proliferation of such false narratives reveals a troubling reality: there exists a ready market for sensational prophetic claims within the body of Christ. Where there are no people hungry for sensationalism, there would be no demand for false prophetic words that lead Christians toward these deceptive teachings and unfounded claims.
This highlights one of the primary reasons deceptions operate at such levels within the church that there are believers who actively feed on these lies and falsehoods, almost as if they desire to hear these fabricated narratives to provide themselves with a manufactured sense of hope.
It would be an understatement to say that this current season of disruptions at all levels requires a different breed of believers – those with keen prophetic insight, understanding, and maturity to address the complex challenges before us. From geopolitical disruptions to economic challenges, and the current spiritual battle engaging the church globally, fasting is…
When we develop spiritual systems aligned with God’s ordained patterns, we create what could be called a “spiritual algorithm”, a divine framework that functions according to specific Kingdom principles and produces predictable, God-glorifying outcomes.
