Kingdom, Freedom and Wisdom: Three Mysterious Forces and Treasures of the Trinity
()
About this ebook
Drawing from his life experiences, the Word of God and his pilgrimage tour of the Holy Land of Israel, Okonkwo provides a detailed discussion of the kingdom of God, the freedom of Jesus and the wisdom of the Holy Spirit. He shares how they operate in different forms, beginning with the work of God from the beginning of creation when he established his kingdom and going through the conception of Jesus, his birth, death, burial and resurrection, which subsequently ensured freedom for mankind. He then advances to the spiritual realm, where our faith and righteousness by grace become dependent on the wisdom of the spirit to actualize spiritual declarations, bringing them into the physical.
Employing an array of Bible verses, Kingdom, Freedom and Wisdom explains how the trinity controlled, influenced, affected, enhanced, manipulated, subjected, united and dominated the ministry of Jesus through its three individual and original forces and treasures: kingdom, freedom and wisdom.

Dedication
I dedicate this book to the Trinity: Lord God the Father who brought us his kingdom; Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God, who declared and gave us freedom through his death on the cross of Calvary; and the Holy Spirit of the living Lord God Almighty of Israel who himself is the Spirit of wisdom.
This book is also dedicated to the nation of Israel, to the city of Jerusalem, and to my three lovely children: Kingdom, Freedom, and Wisdom.
Preface
If you could listen to my thoughts, you’d probably hear the voice of my message; but because you cannot do that, I decided to write my thoughts. This ideally enables me to hear myself before I speak, and so I heard myself by listening to the Spirit and was prompted to write.
This is the concept I came up with. It was given to me by God, and God himself decided to honour it. It was a dream that was never meant to die; who am I to resist the manifestation of the great vision and amazing grace of the Lord Almighty? I have been instructed to put his revelations into this divine book, the first in a series, and I have specifically asked the Lord God to enable me to complete this great challenge and endeavour gracefully.
I never imagined that my children would be named after the Treasures of Trinity. First was Kingdom, born on Sunday, 27 April 2008; second came Freedom, born on Tuesday, 12 January 2010; and third was Wisdom, born on Tuesday 19 February 2013 (the last day of the thirty-third year of my sojourn on Mother Earth and therefore the eve of my thirty-fourth birthday). This was a remarkable day that I will remember forever in my lifetime and destiny, as the day the Lord completed this vision as my third baby was delivered at 6.47 in the morning. On this day I recaptured my focus towards the successful completion of this work, therefore earmarking the concept that birthed the names of my three very special and adorable children. These names have since been ridiculed, criticized, praised, and have always raised arguments about the origin of the concept (the Lord God himself) and the meanings attached to the concepts by the person who conceived those great names—Chimezie Okonkwo.
My third child was born when I was thirty-three years of age. I had just recently been favoured to complete a major phase of my life pilgrimage by victoriously participating in a holy pilgrimage tour of the Holy Land (Israel) and Egypt at the same time. My excitement and enthusiasm stemmed from the knowledge that Jesus had started his earthly ministry at thirty years of age and finished his supernatural ministry at age thirty-three in Jerusalem, and I’d just been privileged to see that same ancient golden city, Jerusalem, at age thirty-three too. Even King David from who Jesus Christ (the Lord and Saviour of man-kind) descended ruled thrity-three years in Jerusalem. So this was a very remarkable phase never to be forgotten in my life, and as I’d set out for the Holy Land, the Lord gave me this Word in Malachi 1:5 ‘And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, The Lord will be magnified from the border of Israel’ (KJV). I believed it was the beginning of greater victories and the Word of God confirmed this in Habakkuk 2:2-3: ‘And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and it will not lie. Though it may tarry, wait for it, because it will surely come’ (KJV).
It is only the living who can write; the dead now belong to history, and I knew my project would be quite daunting, so I had to fight off the enemy that constantly discouraged me from writing because I quite believed my dad who always stressed that ‘tomorrow does not exist’. I also remember one of my favourite sayings: ‘it is not the size of the man in the fight but the size of the fight in the man’. That fight is called faith in God. I asked the Lord for wisdom, because the Word of God emphasizes that wisdom is life. You see, what happens is that many times we get lost in praying for our future and forget to pray for the life that would give birth to that future. We resist the enemy through our prayers, but our prayers must be backed by further actions. That was the force that pushed me into my writing and got me through.
I was on Facebook writing my thoughts every day. One day the Holy Ghost revealed to me that I should be writing books and sharing my thought-provoking ideas rather than selling them on Facebook for free, so I paused for a moment and was inspired to write. Talking about me, my dad once said, ‘A spiritually minded person becomes very philosophical.’ He was invariably saying, ‘You have a lot to say, so start writing.’ To him my thoughts and words were philosophical, but I knew I was being prompted in my thoughts by the Spirit of the Lord who chose to save and endow me with every word that I write now. The Word of God spoke about this purpose in Ecclesiastes 3:1 ‘To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven’ (KJV). It was the time to write this book, and I can attest to the fact that my pilgrimage to Jerusalem pioneered this purpose into action. Zechariah 8:3, 8:21-22, 14:16-17, and Isaiah 2:2-3 emphasize the need for all families of the earth to see Jerusalem on a yearly basis; in fact Zechariah 14:17 threatens ‘no rain’ for families that break this command. Just as tithing is a non-negotiable commandment of the Lord, so also is the Jerusalem pilgrimage (for me) an unavoidable command. The Lord, speaking to pharaoh through Moses, also referred to Israel thus: ‘Israel is my son, even my firstborn: And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me…’ (Exodus 4:22-23, KJV). It was even a more thought-provoking trip that engineered my writing as I experienced more on the subject matter in the particular atmosphere that birthed the Word of God. I just thank God for this opportunity to unleash these words as they just pour out naturally from within my spirit. Many thoughts have been written down in the past and in recent times on the birth of Jesus, the life Jesus lived, his purpose, motive, the salvation he brought, his relationship with the living God and the Holy
