The Living Word

I’m Taking a Year Off… Here’s Why

Dear viewers,It has been a joy and privilege to share God’s Word with you on this platform for the past nine years. When I launched live Bible teachings in 2020, my heart was simply to strengthen believers during a challenging global moment — and God has done more with this space than I ever imagined.Today, I’m sharing an important announcement about the next chapter of my life and ministry. After much prayer, reflection, and seeking God’s direction, I will be taking a year-long sabbatical in 2026. In this video, I open up about why, what God has been speaking to me, and what this means for the future of our online community.Thank you for every prayer, every message, every testimony, and every moment of growth we’ve shared together. I’m grateful for you, and I pray this next season brings even more clarity, rest, and renewal for all of us.Thanks for taking the time to study the Word with me 💜 SolapeL I N K SWebsite: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wordlifeministry.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wordlifeministry.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=F8A3CQU6G5MFY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cash App: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://cash.app/$wordlifeministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/solapeosoba⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/solapeosobaoutreach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tiktok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@solapeosoba?_t=ZT-8sgMFvHmNlz&_r=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For contact and ministry inquiries: info@wordlifeministry.org

58: Spiritual Growth in Christ Part 6: Why True Maturity Is Found in Rest

Many believers are still striving — trying to please God, fix their past, or fight battles that Christ already won. But the goal of spiritual growth isn’t doing more, it’s becoming one with what God has already finished. In this powerful teaching, I'll reveal the true meaning of entering into rest — not inactivity, but a life led by the Spirit where your soul finds its home in Christ.You’ll learn: What it means to cease from your own works and live in the finished work of Christ. Why rest is the mark of true spiritual maturity. How to stop striving and start walking in divine peace, purpose, and rest.If you’ve been tired, weary, or caught in cycles of performance-based faith, this episode will set you free. God’s plan for you has always been rest — in his Son, by the Spirit.Thanks for taking the time to study the Word with me 💜 SolapeL I N K SWebsite: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wordlifeministry.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wordlifeministry.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=F8A3CQU6G5MFY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cash App: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://cash.app/$wordlifeministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/solapeosoba⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/solapeosobaoutreach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tiktok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@solapeosoba?_t=ZT-8sgMFvHmNlz&_r=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For contact and ministry inquiries: info@wordlifeministry.org

57: Spiritual Growth in Christ Part 5 | Predestined to Be Manifested Sons of God

Ephesians 1 says every believer was chosen in Christ by God before the foundation of the world. But why was that? And when the Bible talks about being foreknown or foreordained, what does that really mean for us today?In simple terms, God has already pre-planned the destination for every believer in Christ. In this fifth part of our Spiritual Growth in Christ series, we’ll uncover God’s eternal purpose — that every believer would grow from being a child of God to a manifested son led by the Spirit. You’ll discover how two predestinations and two adoptions in Ephesians 1 reveal God’s unfolding plan through time, and how His Spirit within you is working to bring you into full maturity and glory.If you’ve ever wondered why your walk with God includes challenges, waiting, or transformation, this episode will help you see the bigger picture — that it’s all leading to the manifestation of the sons of God.📖 Scriptures: Romans 8, Ephesians 1, 1 John 3, Philippians 2Thanks for taking the time to study the Word with me 💜 SolapeL I N K SWebsite: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wordlifeministry.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wordlifeministry.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=F8A3CQU6G5MFY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cash App: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://cash.app/$wordlifeministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/solapeosoba⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/solapeosobaoutreach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tiktok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@solapeosoba?_t=ZT-8sgMFvHmNlz&_r=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For contact and ministry inquiries: info@wordlifeministry.org

56: Spiritual Growth in Christ Part 4: How to Avoid the Trap of Imbalance

In this episode of The Journey of Spiritual Growth, we’re diving into one of the biggest reasons many believers stop growing — imbalance. ⚖️Some people have strong Christian character but lack revelation from the Word, while others have deep revelation but lack the character of Christ. Both paths lead to danger .⚠️ True spiritual maturity happens when revelation and character come together — when you not only understand God’s Word but let it transform you from the inside out.In this teaching, you’ll learn:• Why living a godly life without revelation can leave you spiritually stuck• How revelation without humility and love can lead to pride • What it looks like when the Word and Spirit truly work together in your lifeGet ready to see how God’s plan for your maturity is not just about having knowledge — it’s about being conformed to the image of Christ in you.Thanks for taking the time to study the Word with me 💜 SolapeL I N K SWebsite: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wordlifeministry.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wordlifeministry.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=F8A3CQU6G5MFY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cash App: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://cash.app/$wordlifeministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/solapeosoba⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/solapeosobaoutreach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tiktok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@solapeosoba?_t=ZT-8sgMFvHmNlz&_r=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For contact and ministry inquiries: info@wordlifeministry.org
