WIC 2026 (Plenary 1) 5th November: Divine Enlargement and Fulfilment
Preacher: Pastor Kola Oyekale
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.”
John 1:1-5 KJV

All you ever need is roped up in the word of God. Your ability to make God’s word a reality in your life will determine how far your life will go.
The degree to which God’s word becomes real or is open to you determines how far you will go in life.
God’s word will bring direction and illumination in your life.

Not many people pursue God’s word and for this, God is handicapped to help you.
“I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: For thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.”
Psalm 138:2 KJV
The name of Jesus can give you power but the word of God makes you sustain the power.
God’s word should be your pursuit.
“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. ”
Joshua 1:8 KJV
You are not here by accident. God has a plan for your life.
Enlargement is a divine invitation to arise from where you are and discover what God has prepared for you.
Every of the meetings in this year WIC will answer these questions:
What must I become?
What must I develop?
What must I strengthen or do to enter divine enlargement?
God’s intention is not merely to increase what you are but to enlarge who you are.
God’s intention is to develop and expand your capacity.
Divine enlargement is God’s invitation to expand our capacity.
It is God’s invitation to increase your fulfilment and to position you.
The ultimate evidence of divine enlargement is not simply what we have become in terms of material possessions but it is that we have become more effective in fulfilling the purpose of our existence.
God is calling us to be more.
What happens when God’s intention for your future is greater than your present capacity?
What happens when your common territory cannot accommodate what God intends to do through your life.
You must make room for more.
You cannot continue to think small when God is calling you into a greater responsibility.
You cannot ask God for greater opportunity and remain unwilling to develop the capacity to handle it.
If you are not prepared to expand your capacity stop praying for a next level.
If you are not ready for a next level, stop praying for it.
Enlarge the place of your tent means that God gives his people an instruction to prepare for the place he has promised.
Divine enlargement involves divine promise and human preparation.
“Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; ”
Isaiah 54:2 KJV
God in his nature carry capacity and he wants that nature in his children.
Our God is a God of multiplication and fulfilment.
When he called Adam, he said be fruitful, multiply, replenish and subdue the earth.
“And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. ”
Genesis 1:28 KJV
Every enlargement has an assignment.
See the life of Joseph, Moses and David. They were raised for a purpose.
Enlargement is not about personal achievement but becoming more useful in God’s hands.
What is Enlargement?
1. Enlargement is different from human ambition.
Divine enlargement asks how much of God’s purpose can you accomplish through your life.
2. Enlargement is a process.
Never despise the process that develops the capacity to possess the throne.
3. Enlargement is purposeful.
You don’t just want to be enlarged for no reason.
Enlargement is God’s idea. It came from God to be impacted in man. It is not human idea.
God speaks first, then we prepare in faith to catch us with what he says. When we catch up, he expands us and after that he finishes it for a purpose.
Understanding the prophetic mandate of Isaiah 54
“Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD. Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; for thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.”
Isaiah 54:1-3 KJV
1. Sing
2. Stretch
3. Spread
4. Satisfy
The economy of a nation cannot determine the life of a person who carries the rhema of God’s word.
“Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. ”
Isaiah 53:10 KJV
Jesus died so that you can be enlarged to bring glory to him
Chapter 53 ends with a dying man praying his children to give him satisfaction.
Chapter 54 opens with a barren woman who is asked to sing.
How can a barren woman sing?
Regardless of what or who you are sing! There is someone who has paid the price.
Build faith contrary to what you see.
The cross is where the travail happen.
The enlargeement is the result of the travail of your soul.
The enlargeement is where the harvest shows up.
You are enlarged because somebody paid for it.
If you don’t hold on to his promise, you will be hustling everyday.
The passage emphasises gen faithfulness of God to restore man where he ought to be.
Singing breaks the of shame
Singing changes the atmosphere
“Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. ”
Romans 4:18 KJV
Enlargement starts when God speaks and we agree.
