At today’s Testimony & Thanksgiving service, Pastor Femi Paul brought us a thought-provoking word entitled “Lessons from the Prodigal: Leverage.”

Drawing from Luke 15:28–31 (MSG) Pastor Femi taught that hard work alone doesn’t guarantee success - leverage does. Leverage is about using your relationships, knowledge, and position to influence outcomes wisely and profitably.

> “The fool does not know how to leverage.”

> The good son in the story of the prodigal missed out—not for lack of effort, but for lack of understanding how to leverage what he already had.

Key Scriptures:

📖 Luke 15:17-24 (NKJV)

📖 Luke 15:28-31 (MSG)

📖 Ecclesiastes 10:15 (NKJV)

💡 Our relationship with God gives us divine leverage. Don’t just work hard - learn how to work smart in Him.
