About The Author

I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself now and then in finding a smoother pebble or prettier shell than ordinary, while the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.

—Isaac Newton

Dedication

Dedicated to all who saw me, when I didn’t

really know me; and all who gave me

their staffs of assistance to lean on top of them.

Review

Kingsley Osei Owusu powerfully articulates a clear road map for everyone by taking the reader through a journey that reveals how to congeal and make obvious to the mind what God puts in a human spirit.

Until now, good books on distinctions and excellence have overlooked the powerful gift of seeing through the eyes of God, which ultimately clarifies your purpose and leads you to true prosperity. No matter who you are, you can benefit from these timeless thoughts.

INTRODUCTION

On the 16th October, 2011, I visited my spiritual father, Prophet Emmanuel K. Yalley. As he prayed for me, he prophesied to me that God wants to speak to the body of Christ on the subject Purpose and He will enlighten me on it. He also prophesied that God wants to use me, through my writings as one of the voices on the subject. He commissioned me to write a book on Purpose. Around that moment, something was already awakening in my spirit, on the subject. Coincidentally, I was contemplating writing a book titled, Jealousy Beautifies Love which manuscript, was almost ready.

THE VISIONS

As I prayed about it, I received some revelations I want to share with you. First, I saw in a night vision that I was in a certain lit room. There were four other lights at the corners, which were not yet on. Suddenly, they came on. God told me that was how He would enlighten me on subject, Purpose, when I woke up.

Secondly, I found myself climbing a hilly road, tarred. Above me, was an eagle flying in the sky. The eagle started speaking to me, and giving me instructions.

Lastly, I saw a very beautiful big tree with a golden appearance, and Jesus with some of his disciples as well as other believers heading towards it. The tree was on the ground; however, it was neither uprooted nor cut down. When they got closer to the tree, they entered into it; and whoever entered it, got transformed or transfigured into a more radiant form. It was beautiful and majestic!

MY REALIZATION:

SURVIVAL IS NOT THE ANSWER

In my meditations, I have come to realize that the battle of life is fierce. We have fierce spiritual and moral battles, fierce economic and financial battles, stressful and depressing moments; with some people desiring to die than live, or do anything to survive. How to survive is the concern of the day, coupled with lower expectations; and fallen standards. The world of survival favours the strong and leaves others, casualties or victims. However, God wants His people to be victorious in the midst of the ferocious battles in the world, where people are hungry for success; but dying before they achieve it. The people of God can be victorious only when they live with Divine Purpose, and it is your time to live with it.

God is calling people to a closer relationship and lives of purpose; so that He would break our heavy yokes, lift our burdens and give us His blessing of rest. As you read this book, you are sure of encountering a life of glory and blessings, on the highway of Purpose.

WE CAN’T TRAVEL BACK INTO TIME

If you take a retrospective look at on your, you would realize that some of the actions you took in your formative stages, were foolish. Now, you regret some of them. But you committed them because; you were blind to reality and the consequences. It is a pity to finally realize that blindness kept you in oblivion those years. Other times too, you look back and get excited about some of the worst circumstances you have been through; because along those dark paths of life, your eyes got opened and enabled you to understand better.

If you were ever to look into your life, over the next five years, would you either have regrets or excitement? If you are still blind to the things you must see now, then you would have a lot of regrets in the future. You will either look back in life and say, ‘I wish I had’ or ‘I’m glad I did.’ Says, Zig Ziglar. However, this book would provide you with information which would open your eyes to the season’s and understand them for a breakthrough. You will know what you ought to do in your next level.

THE WAY TO OVERCOME

It is your time to discover what is in you, and the plans God has for you; and walk with them. In that way, you will overcome the ferocious battles to survive. Get ready for a radical turn around…

Chapter One

DO YOU SEE?

The wise man’s eyes are in his head, but the fool walks in darkness … Ecclesiastes 2:14 (NKJV).

Is it possible to have eyes and not see? It would be incredible to have eyes and not see. However, that is what happens to many people, especially those who do not live purposeful and fulfilled lives. They have eyes, but they are not opened to see. How can a person be blind and yet can walk from one place to the other and vividly describe whatever is on his way?

SEEING WITHOUT EYES

The eyes mentioned are not merely the optical ones. They go far beyond that. The mind and the heart both
