No matter where one goes on the planet, or in what society one sojourns, he or she will find that these seven spheres of human life prevail. Here is a brief explanation of each one. 1.Worship and ritual—The worship and ritual system ordained by a deity. This is based on the character, functions, abilities, and authorities of the spirit worshipped, and coincide with the ways the deity or spiritual power was designed to access or employ God’s supernatural resources.

Marketing was born to get the right merchandise to the right buyer. According to Proverbs 8–9, Lady Wisdom, a principality herself, rules this
