We live in a time where success has been overrated, and the process is downgraded. God is a God of process and even Jesus went through a process, times of suffering when he had to offer "prayers and supplications with loud crying and tears to the one able to save Him from death (Hebrews 5: 7 NASB). Every believer in the fulfillment of their destiny or purpose will need to understand that they will go through the wilderness or a process stage, this is inevitable. Jesus our Lord and Saviour in His human form is our typical example. What we do in our process stage and how we understand our wilderness test and respond to it may differ from each other. Everyone on their way to their promised land will have to go through a process whether they like it or not. The wilderness is a hard place and it varies among each of us but it is essential for our lives even though it is painful. While a desert season feels terribly wrong and loneliness and despair may seem to reign, God is with you and He desires to use the wilderness for your eternal good. To reap its benefits, however, you must understand its nature, the purpose, and the who behind it. You will need to also understand how to navigate your process and wilderness state, the spiritual strategy to go through the process God is taking you through. You will also need to have a spiritual understanding of the process to see the performance and get the reward of passing your wilderness test. The Process is a prerequisite for the performance because it is what built into us the necessary character, virtues, and spiritual stamina needed to sustain the performance. In other words, God will first prepare you for what He has prepared for hence why the process is necessary. This book focuses on the premise that process precedes promotion and waiting on God concerning anything is not a waste of time rather a time to depend on and trust God the more and grow in your reliance and dependence on God. The word PROCESS was well examined with each letter been fully explained in relation to the journey to destiny. Where P is Purpose & Preparation; R is Realignment & Redirection; O is Obedience & Opportunity; C is Courage & Commitment; E is expectation & Endurance; S is Submission & Surrender; S is Supplication & Stand. It gives you an understanding that without the process there cannot be a performance of the promises of God, it is therefore important that we embrace the process God is taking us through for the performance to come to pass.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER What do you do when God’s timing seems questionable, his lack of intervention hurtful, and his promises doubtful? Lysa TerKeurst unveils her heart amid shattering circumstances, inviting you to live assured when life doesn't turn out like you expected. Life often looks so very different than we hoped or expected. Some events may simply catch us off guard for a season, but others shatter us completely. We feel disappointed and disillusioned at best and overwhelmed and hopeless at worst. We quietly start to wonder about the reality of God’s goodness and why he allows us to suffer and experience grief and loss. Lysa TerKeurst understands this deeply. But after many tears, godly counseling, and prayerful seeking, she's also discovered that our disappointments can be the divine appointments our souls need to radically encounter God. In It's Not Supposed to Be This Way, Lysa invites us into her own journey of faith and, with grit, vulnerability, and honest humor, helps us to: Stop being pulled into the anxiety of disappointment by discovering how to better process unmet expectations and other painful situations. Train ourselves to recognize the three strategies of the enemy, so we can stand strong and persevere through unsettling relationships and uncertain outcomes. Discover the secret of being steadfast and not panicking when God actually does give us more than we can handle. Shift our suspicion that God is cruel or unfair to the biblical assurance that God is protecting and preparing us. Know how to encourage a friend and help her navigate hard realities with real help from God's truth, the Bible. Look for additional biblically based resources and devotionals from Lysa: Good Boundaries and Goodbyes Forgiving What You Can't Forget Uninvited You're Going to Make It Embraced Seeing Beautiful Again

This book examines Nigeria, Africa’s largest economy and most populous country, and Asia in comparative development and sectoral perspectives. We traced the divergent growth in wealth between the two regions. It takes a novel approach of matching key growth sectors across five selected Asian countries and Nigeria in a cross-regional context. We found that state and institutional capabilities underlying the generation and diffusion of industrial and technological knowledge in Asia distinguished it from Africa. We employ quantitative and qualitative methods, including case studies and statistical/econometric methods, to analyze factors that separate the sample countries that made rapid economic progress in “catching up” and those that tend to be stagnating and “falling behind.” Progress made by Asian countries over the last five decades was due in large part to their pursuit of industrialization, technological acquisition underpinned by leadership, good governance, and policies in the right institutional contexts. The four Asian countries compared with Nigeria are Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea, Vietnam, and Bangladesh. There was not one grand development formula; however, the strategy broadly consisted of industrial (vertical) diversification as well as (horizontal) diversification in agriculture. Building industrial capabilities that enable export competitiveness was critical. Again, while leadership is not usually included in factors of growth, the book devotes a chapter to Leadership and Industrialization and another to State Capacity Industrialization and Economic Growth. African countries on the contrary took the low road in exporting minerals and raw agricultural commodities with little value addition; in the process, Africa experienced a reversal of fortune. The African condition is manifestly a Reversal of Fortune because in the 1950s, they were ahead of, or equal to, Asia in per capita income as well as in other development metrics. We carried out empirical measurement of Reversal of Fortune manifested in economic, social, technological, and industrial conditions by analyzing the disparities in development metrics, particularly the levels and rates of growth of national incomes, industrialization rates, and Human Development Index (HDI). The differences are stark.

Why does one well-equipped, well-meaning person in ministry succeed while another fails? Bob Burns, Tasha Chapman and Donald Guthrie undertook a five-year intensive research project on the frontlines of pastoral ministry to answer that question. What they found was nothing less than the DNA of thriving ministry today.
