Arise Part– 1 by Apostle Michael Orokpo

There are seasons in a believer’s life when God calls for a response beyond prayer, desire, and expectation. It is a call to arise, take responsibility, and step into the purpose for which God has ordained that life. The word arise carries the idea of rising from a position of inactivity, limitation, weakness, or obscurity into a place of responsibility and purposeful action. Throughout Scripture, God repeatedly called individuals and His people to arise when it was time to fulfil an assignment or respond to a divine instruction. In Arise Part 1 Apostle Michael Orokpo addresses a subject that challenges believers to recognise the importance of responding to God’s purpose. The Christian life is not designed to be passive.

A believer must not allow complacency, fear, or distraction to prevent the fulfilment of God’s purpose. The gifts and opportunities entrusted to us must be developed and used faithfully. Arising is not merely about becoming successful or gaining recognition. It is about responding to God’s will, growing into spiritual maturity, and becoming a vessel through which His purposes are accomplished. You need to listen to this ser…
