Okey Enelamah discusses Kingdom Economics principles at The Kingdom Summit in 2014. He outlines that Kingdom Economics contrasts with worldly wisdom and follows contrarian principles like sowing abundantly and humbly. Success is predictable through applying consistent principles from scripture and models of success. God's blessing comes with a purpose to establish His kingdom through raising up "Apostles of Righteousness" who exhibit both righteousness and prosperity through strategic alignment of grace and labor and character and competence.
