“And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you POWER to GET WEALTH…” – Deuteronomy 8:18a
The core capacity to produce wealth and accomplish DIVINE PRODUCTIVITY and PROFIT originate entirely from God: “And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you POWER to GET WEALTH, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day” (Deut.8:18). Here, Moses addressed the children of Israel on the plains of Moab as they prepared to move from the scarcity of the wilderness into the abundance of the Promised Land.
The prophet-Leader issued a crucial warning against the spiritual amnesia that often accompanies prosperity, reminding them that when their herds multiply, their silver and gold increase, and they dwell in beautiful houses, they must not say in their hearts, "My power and the might of my hand have gained me this wealth" (v.17). In alignment with the foundational truth of Divine Performance, human effort alone does not guarantee sustainable profit. Divine Productivity and Profit are anchored in a supernatural partnership. God does not drop fully formed currency from heaven; instead, He gives the Power to Get Wealth.
The Hebrew word for ‘power’ implies ability, capacity, and vigour; while the word ‘wealth’ encompasses efficiency, substance, and financial strength. God equips us with the health, intellectual wit, opportunities, strategic ideas, and creative stamina to produce. However, the ultimate purpose of this Divine Profit is not selfish hoarding – it is the establishment and funding of His Covenant on the earth. We must intentionally credit God as the Source of our intellectual capacity, health, and open doors. Always tracing our success to Him guards our hearts against arrogance when our career, business, or ministry flourishes.
God typically provides the capacity rather than the finished product. We are to activate the Power to Create, vigorously deploy our minds and skills, cultivate a strong work ethic, sharpen our competencies, and enthusiastically engage in Value Creation. True wealth is not measured by what we possess, but by our conscious dependence on the One who gave us the power to produce it. Moreover, we must align our Profit with Covenant purposes, ensuring that our desire for increase – financial, material, or spiritual – is tied to advancing the Kingdom, helping the vulnerable, and fulfilling God's Agenda on earth.
In Jesus’ Name, I affirm that:
The power to get wealth is actively at work in my spirit, mind, body, and hands. I receive creative blueprints and witty inventions that command Divine Profit.
I break free from the spirit of lack and move into seasons of supernatural abundance. The blessing of the Lord makes me rich, and it adds no sorrow with it.
My heart remains humble; as God increases me. I will never forget His Grace and Mercy as I walk in divine health and mental clarity, maximizing every productive opportunity.
In covenant partnership with heaven, stagnation is over; my labour is yielding maximum, undeniable results to God’s Glory!

The vision of KCOM is that:
"the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the Glory of the Lord as the waters cover the seas" (Habakkuk 2:14).
"But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the Glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory even as by the Spirit of the Lord" (2 Corinthians 3:18).
