In this the year of the Open Door and the decade of the mouth. It has been strongly impressed upon my heart as to the relevance of this book for this season. I am not aiming to push sales, but to push a message that I am fully persuaded will help the body of Christ to be where they need to be. The Doors that will open has to be entered through humility. Humility will help you to distinguish between counterfeit doors and divine doors. Our speech both to God and man has to come from a place of humility for maximum results! Below are a few reviews from persons that have been blessed from the insights of this book.
This book was a great read, filled with a plethora of scriptures that indicate the in-depth research the author did when putting this book together. The definitions, imagery, and practical tools such as an action checklist to aid in cultivating humility and a humility prayer made the book come to life, without taking away from its simplicity and flow. The book dispels some false notions we have of humility and highlights what it truly means to be humble. It prompts the reader to reevaluate perspectives, not seeing oneself as less than or weak, but having a balanced opinion of oneself, understanding capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses, and not being hindered or motivated by either.

LOVE IT!”
This book offers profound insights into the nature of pride and the strength of humility. It is easy to read and enlightening. It motivates readers to embrace humility on their spiritual journey and seek divine guidance from the Holy Spirit to deepen their relationship with the Lord.

I suggest revisiting this book periodically for continued insight and understanding.
Reading this book will change the way you think about humility. We always thought that we were humble until we started to read this book AND Apostle’s blog. Turns out that as a society we have been using the term loosely. As followers of Christ, Humility is an attribute that we will need to be effective servants of God and we all need to look in the mirror from time to time. This book is a mirror as it makes you introspective and you will see yourself and know if you’re humble or not and you may notice that you’re falling short in other areas you probably didn’t think of. Tldr: 10/10 recommended. Everybody needs this book! AND the blog!

Of the few books I’ve read, this one has taught me many significant lessons and highlighted several reference points for inspiration and meditation. As I read, I learnt that having a quiet or reserved disposition doesn’t mean that an individual is humble. Humility is one character trait that helps to distinguish a mature or maturing believer. Pride can be subtle and really has no regard for a person’s title or rank. Therefore, anyone can struggle with this stronghold. Recognizing the stronghold early and overcoming it is essential for living a righteous life according to the precepts of God. The author not only shared from the scriptures and inspiration from God but also maintained a level of transparency by sharing intricate portions of her personal journey in identifying and overcoming pride. This book was not one that I found easy to rush through as there were many instances where I had to pause, meditate, and pray when I came across Biblical references of pride that may have been present in my own life . Not only would I recommend this book to every person who is struggling with pride, but to everyone who aspires to have a closer walk with the Lord.

I am grateful I took the time to read and have invested in a few copies for family and friends.
Reading this book opened my eyes and I realized that what I thought was humility was just a tip of the iceberg. I didn’t know that pride could look just like humility. This book has really helped me to recognize subtle pride in myself and how it has robbed me over the years. After reading this book I was less susceptible to offence and was able to recognized pride easier. It is an easy read. The author really takes the time to give attention to all aspects of humility based on scripture. The book invites the reader to join the humility train without condemnation or judgement.

Prophet Javan Grant
There’s a lot more that this book has to offer, but you definitely have to read it for yourself.
The Secret Ingredient to Sustained Relationship and Power with God is a compelling read for anyone seeking to deepen their spiritual journey and cultivate more meaningful connections in their lives. With its practical insights and profound wisdom, this book offers a roadmap for humility.

Reading this book was more than an experience; it was a transformational journey.
This book is full of useful information that pulls one into introspection. I couldn’t put the book down. I literally read it all in one day. This book is a staple as I’m about to dive in once again as God continues to work on me, in me and through me.
Kristal Robinson
Great read and a must have for all believers.
This book is truly an Excellent read. It has so many gems and teachings that we can use in our day to day walk to develop a stronger walk and appreciation of God’s love towards us and gain better understanding of what we mean to Him, and how we should start seeing ourselves as His beloved
Andre Brock
I got this book as a gift from a very special person, signed with kind, encouraging words from the author herself – Apostle Nicholeen Williams. I love that the book stands on a Biblical foundation and wisely composed to help readers develop a humble demeanor. I am a testament to this, as this book has been helping me through my desire to cultivate a humble spirit. After reading and meditating on its content, it challenged me to introspect myself, especially when it expounded on what humility is and what humility is not. The author used various characters from the Bible to demonstrate being humble and being prideful to better give the reader a contrast between both. I find it useful that she gave steps on how to be humble and the benefits of humility. This is not a one-time read. This book must be read over and over in various seasons of our lives to constantly work at a humble character that attracts the heart of God.
Carry-Ann Mushette
A “tool” to keep, a “tool” to work with throughout one’s life.
I found that the book was a very easy read. The author’s style of writing which was instructive and relatable made it easy to understand why humility is an important ingredient to having a sustained relationship with God. Reading this book will widen your understanding and cause you to reflect on your level of pride. Hopefully, it will encourage and deepen your relationship with Christ.
Peta Oates-Blake
Powerful Book! I have read it more than once. This book will trigger you to want to pursue humility. There is something about the book that quickens you to want to live a life of humility. While reading it you will actually hear the voice of God. As I read the Lord would stop me and say “xyz” to me.
Prophet Junior Mohalland (From Wailing Women’s Conference 2024)
The book is anointed. It is a book for such a time as this.
Nicholeen Williams is an Apostle, wife, mother, and author, who has graced the scene with a well- needed book for our generation and future generations. Wearing these many hats requires the stance of humility, which she has acquired by the grace of GOD. Her take on explaining what the true meaning of humility is, I believe is a divine inspiration from GOD. She brings a deeper understanding of the topic of humility and how it is beneficial in the life of the believer and individuals. Her careful research and references made the book so impactful and a must-read book of our times.
Prophetess Keisha-Gay Samuels
This book gives a clear view of what humility is and is not, and how pride causes one to be destroyed. The clear scriptural references show us that God is not the God of the prideful but One who gives grace to the humble. The book gives clear insight into the important fact that humility begins with the fear of the LORD. This book also shows us that humility is a garment that is a much-needed garment that should be worn by all the Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Evangelists, and Teachers. These servants can be corrupted by pride and be brought to a disgraceful fall like King Nebuchadnezzar. The practice of humility keeps us close to GOD in intimacy with Him, causing us to have a sustained relationship with the Holy Spirit.
In this generation where there is little or no fear of GOD or reverence of His name, this book is the book of the decade that will help us to return to the Father in true humility to be healed, forgiven, and blessed. This book shows how humility moves the hearts of kings, bosses, and even God.
I recommend this book to anyone and everyone who wants to learn the Secret to a sustained relationship with GOD and with man. This is a must-read!
My first reaction to this book was how interesting the title is. Though it may be a little longer than the usual title of a book, it captured the interests of readers with one of the most important aspects in a Christian’s life which is our relationship with God!” I immediate want to know what that secret ingredient to a sustainable relationship with God and of course the title hints through the wisdom of humility.
Marlon-Junior Williams
This book allowed me to introspect myself as I was far from being humble. This was because my perspective on what humility is or what it looks like was wrong. The writer used biblical references in such a unique way to define humility and how to view it as a garment. The book did not just stop at defining humility but differentiating humility from what it is easily mistaken for which helped to identify those areas of pride within me.
My view on humility was impacted in such a unique way as I now describe it as something you cannot buy or just gain. Rather, it is something that has to be worn and put into practice daily for it to be accomplished or manifest. The benefits of humility were also highlighted in this book and my heart was at peace knowing how my Father works on behalf of the humble. Being humble takes sacrifice and it may cause us to be unfairly treated but the benefits reassured me that those sacrifices won’t be in vain.
Lastly, understanding how to cultivate humility was a great way to close this book. As it leaves the reader with an understanding of what to do to gain all that was read within this book.
I am grateful I read this book and would encourage anyone to give it a read; It will change your heart and mind!
