ANNOUNCEMENT

By the special grace of God next month will be our convention time; the annual convention this year will be from August 6-12th the theme for the convention is COME UP HIGER. The Almighty God is calling some body and He is saying “COME UP HIGHER“.

And so because of the convention there will be no Holy Ghost service on the first Friday of August because the Holy Ghost service will come during the convention, so don’t come Holy Ghost service first Friday of next month because it will be during the convention.

The divine encounter and Shiloh hour also will be the Monday after the convention, not the first Monday but the Monday after the convention.

GOOD SUCCESS

Joshua 1 v 8 “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth but thou shall meditate there in day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein; for then thou shall make thy ways prosperous, and then thou shall have good success”.

Not all success is good; Proverbs 1 v 32 tells us that if prosperity is out in the hand of a fool, the prosperity will destroy him; it said the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. So there is a kind of success that can even bring destruction, you will never get that kind of success in Jesus name.

And not all success last; that is important. I told those who came for Divine encounter last Monday, that it is better never to have been rich than to be referred to as ex-rich. It is a terrible thing to have been rich once and then become poor. In the name that is above every other name, your blessing will be forever.

When you study the scripture very well, you will discover something about Solomon, he started very well, he was very wealthy and at a stage the bible said he was heaping up gold as ordinary stones, silver was dump in his backyards. But if you read 1 king 12 v 1 -4 you will discover that towards the end of his life because his resource have became seriously depleted he had to taxed the people heavily to be able to sustain his lavish lifestyle.

That was why when his son came on the throne the people came to Rehoboam and said listen, “we were groaning under your father, will you please make our task lighter” unfortunately, the young man came and said “you haven’t seen anything yet, am going to make things much more difficult for you”. So the people say in that case unto your house oh Israel. I pray for you one more time, that blessing that will not last, will never come your way.

So when God said if you do the following you will have good success, it tells you straight away that there are successes and there are successes; some success can be good, some can be bad. And he said if you want your own success to be good; this book of the law, the bible, shall not depart from your mouth but you shall meditate upon it day and night. To observe and to do all that is written therein.

He said if you study the bible very well, you meditate on it and you do what is written in it, he said your success is guaranteed.

For example if you study the bible you will discover that in Job 36 v 11 he said if you will obey and serve the Lord, then you will spend your days in prosperity and your years in pleasure. If you obey and serve the Lord, you have nothing to worry about, He said all your days you will be spending it in prosperity, your years; you will be spending it in pleasure. When you read Psalm 34 v 12 – 14 David said do you want to live long and enjoy good age? It is one thing to live long, it is another thing to live long and enjoy it. He spells out certain thing you must do.

Number one he said watch your tongue, keep your tongue from evil. Proverb 18 v 21 says death and life are in the power of the tongue.

Number two he said you yourself depart from evil, Job 28 v 28 he said by fear of God, men depart from evil. When he said depart from evil, if you fear God then according to Psalm 111 v 10. That means be wise, don’t be a fool. You want to live long; you want to enjoy good age? Watch your mouth, fear God and depart from evil.

Number three he said do good, because of the law of harvest. The law of harvest says whatever you sow you will reap good.

Then he said seek peace, Proverb 16 v 7 tells you how to seek peace, he said when a man’s way please God he will cause even his enemies to be at peace with him. I pray for every one of you here tonight, all your enemies from now on will be at peace with you in Jesus name. He said don’t just seek peace; he said you are to pursue it. Isaiah 48 v 18 tells you what to do so that for the rest of your life, you will be at peace.

Because it is one thing to succeed, it is another thing to have peace. Isaiah 48 v 18 says if only you will hearken to the voice of the Almighty God; listen to him, do what he ask you to do, He said your peace will be like a river.

Good success! I have had the opportunity of being close to wealthy people and I mean some people who are extremely wealthy. And I am telling you brethren, not all wealthy people are happy people; some people are wealthy and sad, some are wealthy and sick.

I mean I had a friend, he is dead now, when he died, in his account in Australia alone, we are not talking of the account in England, in America or Switzerland, and there were 68 million dollars.

That he left in Australia, but do you know what? The only food he can eat is milk. I don’t have 68 million Dollars in Australia or anywhere but give me pounded yam and you will see the glory of God.

Let somebody shout halleluiah!

What is the use of having money if you can’t eat, what is the use of being called big if you can’t enjoy what ordinary people can enjoy there are some wealthy people if you see the list of things that the doctor said they must never touch, you will thank God that even though you are not rich, you can go when you want to go.

Glory be to God!

Good success has many facets; we could be talking of prosperity without adversity, we could be talking about promotion without the possibility of demotion. It is better never to be promoted than to be promoted today and demoted tomorrow.

We could be talking about deliverance without relapse. Some people were delivered once but things relapsed. We could be talking about healing without at a scar, healing without a residue. We can be talking about victory without the possibility of a future defeat.

We can be talking about anointing that will never dry up, anointing that will last forever. And then of course we can be talking about salvation without backsliding, we could talk about several other things but let me go over these seven ones that I have mentioned.

Prosperity without adversity; Proverb 10 v 22 says the blessings of the Lord makes rich and adds no sorrow. In the name of the one who made heaven and earth, your blessings will be without sorrows. But that depends on you, because I mean the bible is full of examples of those who received from the Lord and then the blessing turned to sorrow.

The classical example is Ephraim; you know the story of Ephraim, when his grandfather wanted to bless him and Manasseh his elder brother. The father transferred the blessing of the elder brother to the younger Ephraim and within years Ephraim prospered ten times more than his elder brother but he ignored God.

So that by the time we got to Hosea 4 v 17 God said Ephraim has joined himself to idols, leave him alone! And then God said in Hosea 5 v 9 he said Ephraim shall be desolate. The blessing that God has pronounced on you will never become a curse.

How do you have prosperity without adversity? The blessings of the Lord makes rich and adds no sorrow with it. However don’t forget God because he said in Deuteronomy 8 v 17 -18, when prosperity comes when you begin to live in houses you didn’t build, when you begin to drink from well you didn’t dig, when wealth begins to change hands; don’t begin to say that it is the power of my hands that has got me this wealth.

He said you must remember it is God who gives you power to get wealth. You want his blessing to last? You want his prosperity to be without adversity? Don’t forget God. Don’t forget who is prospering you.

And how do you show him you don’t forget him? You put him first in everything Malachi 3 v 10 he said if you rob him of his tithe he said he will place a curse on you, he said but if you bring all the tithe into his house, he will open the windows of heaven and pour you a blessings so that there won’t be enough room to contain.

Put him first, in Genesis 22 v 1 -18 when God gave a test to Abraham; “I gave you a son in your old age, I know you loved him, let’s find out whether you love him more than you love me.

He said go and sacrifice him to me” Abraham obeyed but before he could kill the boy, God intervened and then God said, because you have done this because you have shown me you feared me more than your son, you put me first, he said I swear your blessing will be irreversible.

When we talk to you about first fruit and you think it is a pastor way of making money you are making a great mistake.

When you put God first he makes sure that your blessing is irreversible, put him second and then you will see what will follow.

Have told you several stories, there are many, many I could tell you but I will remind you of just one. One young man came to me and said “God has answered your prayers”! I said amen! What happened?

He said one big chief called him in Lagos and said he wants him to sell his house; the house had thirteen flat, twelve of them a regular flat and then a pent house on top.

The chief said all I want is so much money, how much you sell it that is your own look out. He said “Daddy! God has answered your prayers, he said from that deal alone, I am settled for life.

I said “congratulations, thirteen flat?” He said yes, I said good! That means you will give one of the flat to the Church. He said why? I said at least tithe of thirteen could be 1.3 but we can’t have point three of flat. He said this is first breakthrough now, let God wait. Am happy you said ha! But some of you are like that.

A week later he had got a buyer ready to pay far, far higher than what the owner wanted. He asked the chief “where do I pay?” The man said “what are you talking about?” He replied and said “your house that you asked me to sell, I have gotten a buyer; the money is ready now, just tell me where you want me to send the cheque”. The man said “Whatever charm you used on me has been destroyed who told you I want to sell my house?”

When we talk about tithe some of us thinks ten percent is too much to give to God, wait till you compare ninety percent of something to hundred percent of nothing. The blessing that will last forever, may the Almighty God give you in Jesus name.

Number two; Promotion without possibility of demotion, it is better never to have been promoted than to have reached the top and then be demoted. We have several examples; King Saul in 1 Samuel 15 v 1 -30 King Saul was a nobody until the Almighty God grabbed him and turned him to a king; he became a king and stopped obeying God. God said fine, I made you a king; I will remove you as king.

You know many at times when we read 1 Samuel 2 v 8 we love to quote verse 8 the Almighty God is able to pick up a beggar from the dunghill and raise up until he begins to seat among princes. I always say to my friends why you don’t read verse 7, verse 7 comes before verse 8. It says the Almighty God raises up and he brings down, he can lift up one and bring down another, the bible says promotion comes from God.

1 Samuel 2 v 7-8 he raises one and brings down another, verse 8 says he then picks up a beggar from the dung hill and makes him to seat among princes. Don’t forget who promote you.

If you don’t forget your promoter then you can stay forever on top. Consider David for instance, one day David was dancing, praising God, 2 Samuel 6 v 14 -22. he didn’t say because he was a king, so he will dance very gently.

A king must be kingly, David said that is fine, I can be kingly in my palace but when am dancing for God I want to dance. And his wife saw him and said I thought you are a king? Look at the way you have been dancing, how can you dance like that; like an ordinary man?

You know what David said? “He said I am dancing for the one who made me king. He said woman! You haven’t seen anything yet, I am dancing for the one who took the kingdom from your father and gave it to me. I have not dance yet, you wait and see what will follow.

One day the Almighty God said to David, in 2 Samuel 7 v 1 16 God said “David your kingdom shall be forever, he said you will never lack somebody to seat on your throne”. Am sure you know that today Jesus Christ is called the son of David, the King of kings himself. David got that position because he didn’t forget the one who made him King.

When I got born again I was already a lecturer at the university of Lagos, and I realized how close to hell I was, with all my academic knowledge; I saw the goodness of God in my life so I just though what can I do , at least to show this God publicly that I appreciate what he has done for me, so I got permission from my father in the Lord that at least once a year during the convention, they will allow me to sing, dance and recite EWI (Yoruba poetry) that is the origin of Ewi during the convention.

When I became the General Overseer somebody came to me and said you are our father now, there are things little children should do. He said when you are an elder, you must sit down like an elder, let your children do the singing you seat down, I said thank you very well. As long as my two legs can carry me, as long as my voice can still be heard; I will sing, I will dance for the one who made me the General overseer.

I will praise Him, I don’t know about you, but is there anyone here who will praise Him forever?

Sometime ago I was abroad in a world conference, big men of God all over the world was there and they invited a small man like myself and I went with my tambourine and one of the big preacher came to me and said “what are you doing with a tambourine, you are not an ordinary member of the choir, you are suppose to be the general overseer, is that not what they called you?. Lord have mercy!

Brethren when I became General Overseer; the staff of the Bible College I think we were about three, there was one man who was the principal, I was coming in as an additional teacher and another fellow.

Today by the grace of God in Nigeria alone, the staff of the Bible College, full time and part time is more than five hundred. Now you ask me not to praise God, and you ask me not to bless God, do you think am crazy? Is there anybody here who wants to be great forever? Jump on your feet and let me hear you shout a big halleluiah!

Promotion without demotion; don’t forget the one who has promoted you. Don’t forget.

Deliverance without relapse, we are talking about good success, deliverance without relapse. It is a terrible thing for someone to have been delivered before and then we say the thing relapsed.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight, he said i observed the way you praised me. He said “I will make sure you always have something to praise me about”.

Thank you daddy.

He said there is someone here tonight, he said in future when they talk about from grass to grace they will use you as an example.

Thank you father!

He says in particular there is someone here, urine just comes out of your private part you can’t control it. You just keep on urinating; if you laugh you urinate, if you cough you urinate, he asked me to tell you he has taken care of that.

Matthew 12 v 43 -45 Jesus Christ said if an unclean Spirit goes out of a man, he will be going through the dry places looking for somewhere to rest.

If he can’t find a place he will say let me go and check my old house, when he went back and found the old house empty, then he would said I met some evil spirit while going, they too have no house, then he will go and bring seven of them and he said the end of the man will be worse than the beginning.

I pray for every one of us that God has delivered from forces of darkness, our deliverance will be permanent in Jesus name.

But what do I do, so that my deliverance will be permanent?

Ask Mary Magdalene Luke 8 v 1 -3 when God set Mary Magdalene free, she became a divine treasurer. What she uses to serve the devil before, she now use it to serve the Lord.

Ask the mad man of Gedaren Mark 5 v 1 – 20 the bible says after God set him free, he came to Jesus and say I will go with you everywhere. Jesus Christ said no! Go and advertise me. Do you know that those who are always advertising Jesus Christ never get into bondage? If God sets you free and you keep on telling other people about him, He will make sure that you remain free.

What about healing without any leftover; many at times, when you go to the hospital for a particular hospital problem, that problem may be solved but there are almost invariably some side effects.

I used to be a victim of malaria fever and I had an uncle who was a very good doctor, he’s gone to be with the Lord now. He will tell me “for your fever take this, take this and this and I will take it and the fever will go.

But then later on I will have a little bit of stomach discomfort and I will go to him, fever is gone but what about this stomach discomfort. And he will say that is the side effect of the medicine you have taken, but there is a God who can heal you without any side effect, he will give you permanent healing today in the name of Jesus Christ.

In 2 kings 5 v 1 – 14 when God healed Naaman, the bible said his skin returned to him as that of new baby, there was no scars left, no signs at all that he ever had leprosy. There is a God who can guarantee that once he heals you, you will remain healed. Exodus 15 v 26 says i am the Lord that heals thee.

If you will hearken diligently to the voice of the Lord your God, to observe and to do all that he commands you he said he will make sure no disease will come upon you.

It is possible to healed and remain healthy forever and I am praying for all of us who are here tonight; in the mighty name of Jesus Christ after tonight no more pain, no more ache in Jesus name.

But take the example of Naaman; how come this man who was a leper was cleanse so much that his skin is like that of a new born baby, I mean this man came as a leper, he went home glowing like a new born baby.

What do we noticed about him?

Number one, He humbled himself before God; initially when they say go and wash in Jordan. He was angry and he was going home angry (what is wrong with this person, I thought he will come out, lay his hands upon me and call upon the name of his God).

Many of us wants to dictate to God how we want to be healed; some of us come and say unless the G.O lays his hands on me, I won’t be healed. Sorry!

That is not the way God does his things, the bible says he sent his word and his word heal them. As his word is coming to you now, be healed in Jesus name.

Number two, he followed instruction to the letter; “deep yourself seven times” at the sixth time he still came up a leper until the seventh time.

Anytime you want to do anything for God, follow instructions! For example; when you want to give God an offering, God says he loves a cheerful giver, if you can’t give cheerfully, don’t give at all. If you do, there will be no returns.

That is why when you hear its offering time, wise people, people who knows how God operate begins to rejoice because God loves a cheerful giver. God is not a beggar, follow instruction to the letter.

And then after he was healed , he came back to testify, he came back to the man of God and said look at me; I was a leper when I was going, look at me now, I am well.

When we say it is testimony time, it is amazing how few people came forward, we those who comes forward are many by comparison to other places. But there are hundreds of thousand, who has received miracles from God who had never testified. It is when you testify that God put a seal on your miracle so that the enemy can never steal it from you.

He came back to testify and he told the man of God, for the rest of my life I will serve this God.

You want your healing to be permanent, humble yourself, follow instruction to the letter, testify and of cause serve God till the end.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight, he said you will understand. He said the Lion that is trying to choke you shall die this month.

John 5 v 2 – 14 You remember the story of the man who was sick for thirty eight years, when Jesus healed him, he told him go and sin no more else something worse will happen. You want your healing to be permanent? Go and sin no more.

And then what about victory without a defeat, victory is no good if it is going to be followed by defeat, victory loses its value if its followed by defeat. There used to be a boxer and I am telling you, nobody wants to be called ex champion, the best thing is to be called the undefeated champion, and I decree to you in the name that is above every other names, for the rest of your life you will be undefeated champion.

Look at the example of Joshua in Joshua 6 v 20 he led the children of Israel, they shouted, they made just one shout and the well of Jericho fell. Then we got to Joshua 7 and they came against just one small town called Ai and the people of the town chased them and slaughtered 46 of them. Joshua who was lifting himself high was shouting; there is nobody like me, God you are great, he fell on his face because when victory is followed by defeat, victory loses its value.

So what do I do so that I will be victorious all the time?

Number one; make sure that you are not your own enemy, because the most dangerous enemy of all is when you are your own enemy. I have always told us Romans 8 v 31 says if God be for us, who can be against us.

When we ask that question everybody says nobody, until one day I said to my children, let’s open the bible where is nobody written? All that the bible says is who can be against us question mark? That means the question was not answered and the reason the question was not answered is because if God be for you the devil cannot be against you; resist the devil and he will flee from you. If God be for you demon cannot be against you; you are to cast out demons.

If God be for you herbalist cannot be against you; because every weapon fashioned against you shall not prosper. But if God be for you and you are against yourself, then God have mercy. And as I have always told you before you sing that beautiful song, let God arise and let his enemy be scattered , find out that you are not one of the enemies, because when he arises; all his enemies will scattered.

You see we love to quote the bible, we quote the section that is beautiful for us and we forget the underlining principle.

Maybe one of the reason God trained me as a mathematician before calling me into the ministry, is because he know I will know that formulas only work when they satisfy certain conditions, so when I come across Deuteronomy 28 v 7 he says the enemy that rises against you shall be smitten before your face, they shall come against you in one way they shall flee seven ways.

Beautiful passage! but is there any condition for that ? the condition is in verse 1; if you, the one that God is going to fight for, if you will hearken diligently to the voice of the Lord your God to observe and to do all that he commands you, then any enemy that comes against you will be smitten before your face.

They come against you in one way they see God behind you and they flee seven ways.

Many times I had prayed my wife and I, we had fasted we have prayed for some people and when we don’t get the answer we want we begin to query God. Father what else can anybody do? And God will say my children you don’t know all the story; the fellow you are praying for is not who you think he is.

I will tell you one story; one very important chief somewhere in this state was sick and his friend, very close friend of his came to me and said please, he is a very good man; he has built a church for the town, he has done this, he has done that come and pray for him so he will be well. So I went, sir “are you a Christian?”, he said “I have been a Christian before your mother was born”.

“Have you really surrendered your life to Jesus?” He said look at that church, I built that one, there is another one over there I built that one.” “That is not what I am asking for, are you a Christian?” So he said “I am a Christian”. I said “yes sir”.

So I prayed, a week later I went, no improvement at all. So I said I know what I will do; I took two of my prayer partners and I sent them to the place.

And I said I want you to stay there for seven days, the water you are going to drink there take it from home, no food, no drink from his house. Fast and pray for him. They fasted and prayed after seven days I went to check, no improvement.

I said I know what I will do, I will handle this case myself personally, I will fast I will pray nonstop for 21 days until he gets well. Then God spoke to me and said “son, if you want to fast it’s alright. Fasting is good for you but don’t fast for this man because you will be wasting your energy. But “Lord why?”

He says ask him the following questions and God gave me seven questions to ask him, the man who claims to be a Christian; how many secret society people do you belong to? How many people have you killed? I said “God, How can I ask these questions?” God said “ask. You are the one who wants to fast for twenty one days”.

I went to him and say “I am sorry sir, its God who asked me to ask these questions…” by the time I got to the seventh question, he asked me to go away that he will send for me. The next information I got from him is that I should never come back there. Of cause I never went back.

You want a miracle from God? Hearken diligently to the voice of the Lord your God. To observe and to do all that he commands you.

I travelled last month and I saw a notice in front of a church and it says “The Ten Commandment Is Not A Multiple Choice” you know the meaning of that? God did not say choose any one of the ten, you are to obey all.

When you obey all, then the enemies that comes against you becomes the enemy of God and God knows how to handle his own enemies.

What about anointing that will never run dry; it is better never to be anointed, than to have an anointing that will run dry. Anointing is wonderful, Isaiah 10 v 27 says anointing destroys yoke, anointing makes you untouchable.

The Lord said there is somebody here, he said wherever you go people you have never met before looks at you strangely; you can see the way they are looking at you and you feel uncomfortable, he said this is because the enemy has put a mark on you, he asked me to tell you, he has erased the mark.

Anointing makes you untouchable 2 Kings 1 v 9 -12 when the enemies came and they said they wanted to arrested Elijah, he roasted them. And if the enemy says there have grabbed you, they can’t hold you Judges 15 v 14 – 15.

When they brought Samson bound to the Philistine and the anointing of God came upon him the fire of God destroyed every yoke and it is a thousand of the enemies that perished. But if anointing dries up then the anointed becomes a victim in the hand of the enemy Judges 16 v 18-21.

When Samson lost his contact with God, the enemy took him and pluck out his eye, I pray for every one of you here tonight, the anointing of God upon your life will never run dry in Jesus name.

How do I make sure that my anointing will never run dry?

All you have to do is to stay connected to the Almighty God, stay connected to the source of the anointing. Take Elisha for example in 2 King 2 v 1 – 15 everything Elijah did to persuade him to stay back, he said no sir, where ever you go I will go, you are my spiritual father, everywhere you go, I will follow.

No wonder even after he died there was still enough anointing left in the bones of Elisha to raise the dead. It is a terrible thing to have been anointed once and then become ex anointed. That is why I always warn those who are in deliverance ministry in particular; if you go into deliverance ministry, for God sake be Holy because every demon you cast out is going to report you to the devil.

And the devil will say I know, leave him alone now, he is hot but keep watching him, if he ever becomes cold then we will deal with him. The fire of the Almighty God that is surrounding each and every one of you will never go out in Jesus name.

What about salvation; salvation without backsliding, it is better not to be saved than to be saved and then backslide. There is nothing as terrible as an ex Christian.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight; he said he has decided to take you to a level where your present success will be like child’s play.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight; he said very soon your nick name shall be BLESSING.

2 Peter 2 v 20-22 says when somebody has been saved before and he backslide it is as if a dog went back to his vomit, that is a horrible picture. When someone who used to be a child of most high God, you said I will never go back into sin, I will not lie anymore, I won’t fornicate any more, I won’t drink anymore, I am not going to smoke anymore and then you backslide and go back to those things he said it is like a dog and after some time he says vomit is food.

That is why David cried, David knew the pain of someone who has lost salvation Psalm 51 v 12 one of the things he cried for is that “restore unto me the joy of thy salvation.” The Devil knows how to deal with a backslider.

When you read Luke 15 v 11 -24 it tells you the story of a prodigal son which is a classical example of a backslider. Initially the boy was having a wonderful time but the joy of the backslider will never last, very soon adversity came, all friends turned against him.

He wanted to eat the food given to pigs they wouldn’t even allow him that was how bad things got before he decides to return to his father. I pray that every backslider will come back to Jesus tonight in Jesus name.

What do I do so that I will never, never backslide? Philippians 2 v 12 says you are to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. Whatever you do brother, whatever you do sister, don’t lose your salvation.

Whatever the temptation the devil will bring your way, tell the devil “I cannot afford to lose my salvation. Colossian 3 v 1 – 4 says focus on things above not things beneath, seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and every other things will be added, and please if you don’t want to lose your salvation, keep wining souls. John 15 v 1 -2 Jesus Christ said I am the vine my father is the husband man, I am the vine you are the husband man, every branch that does not bears no fruit, he takes away.

There is a backsliding that can never be healed. This is the backsliding caused by God himself, God is constantly watching every child of God. Are you winning souls? You have been born again for one year; how many souls have you won. You have been born again for ten years, how many souls have you won?

One day God is going to say this fellow is a fruitless branch cut it off. When God is the one who cut off somebody, nobody can replant. That is why I thank God for those of you who went out on the 2nd June to win souls, may God bless you mighty in Jesus name.

But don’t go out only one day; make soul wining your life style. Let’s do it every day, let us find at least a day in the month when will all go out and win souls, those who are constantly wining souls never backslide. And those who don’t win souls, sooner or later they will backslide.

We are talking about good success, we are talking about prosperity without adversity, we are talking about healing without scar, we are talking about deliverance without a relapse, we are talking about the blessing of the Lord that makes rich and add no sorrow, we are talking about promotion with the possibility of demotion, we are talking of all the victories God can give you so that so that you can be forever an undefeated champion.

We are talking about anointing that will never run dry, we are talking about salvation without backsliding.

Good success, but the Journey to Good Success begins when you surrender your life to Jesus, because Philippians 4 v 13 says I can do all things through Christ which strengths me.

If only I have Christ, I can succeed and keep on succeeding forever and ever, because he will keep on supplying the strength.

That is why if you have not yet given your life to Jesus Christ, you better do so tonight. You cannot begin to succeed and desire Good success if you have not given your life to Jesus Christ.

So if you are here and you have not yet given your life to Jesus Christ come and do so now. If you are a backslider come back to him now, he will restore you this time and the restoration will be permanent. So if you want to give your life to Jesus or you are a backslider and you want to be restored back to him, come forward now.

As you come ask Him to be merciful unto you, ask him to safe your soul, ask him to be merciful unto you. The rest of us, let us pray for this people that the savior who saved our souls, will save their souls also, pray that God will wash them clean in his blood and wash away all their sins.

Pray that the Almighty God himself will write their names in the book of life and give them a brand new beginning, intercede for them. If you are a backslider, call on God to restore you fully, tell him to help you return to full fellowship with him…

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed, Almighty God I want to bless your holy name. Thank you on behalf of these your children who have come forward tonight. I want to thank you because your word is forever settled, you said in your word, that who so ever will come unto you, you will in no wise cast out, they have come to you now father, please receive them in Jesus name.

Forgive them in Jesus name, have mercy on them in Jesus name, your blood that cleanses from all sin, let it wipe away all their sins in Jesus name. Even as you are saving their souls now, father, please write their names in the book of life and don’t let them ever go back into the world in Jesus name.

Every backslider among them, restore fully in Jesus name. I pray that from now on anytime they call upon you, you will answer them in Jesus name. Thank you my father and my God in Jesus mighty name we have prayed. Amen

From now on by the grace of God I will be praying for you, very soon you will be receiving miracles, including miracles you didn’t even ask for, and then you will know somebody must be somewhere praying for you and that somebody will be me.

That is why I need your names, your address and your prayer request (Please drop them with the counselors)

THE SECREAT OF ANSWERED PRAYERS

I King 18 v 36 – 39 And it came to pass at the time of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah came near and said, “Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all these things at thy word. Hear me oh Lord, hear me that this people may know that thou hart the Lord God and that thou has turned their heart back again, then the fire of the Lord fell and consume the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones and the dust and licked up the water that was in the trench, and when all the people saw it they feel on their face and said “The Lord he is the God; the Lord he is the God”.

If there is any example of a prayer that was answered and answered instantly, it is this prayer of Elijah that I have just read to you.

Elijah’s prayer lasted less than two minutes and yet fire fell. In the name that is above every other name, God will answer your prayer by fire tonight.

As many of you know Elijah is one of my favorites, I spent three years studying him and he is one of the reasons why I pray, because if there is anything about Elijah that is very significant is that he is a prayer warrior.

So I have spent time, quality time studying this particular prayer and if it pleases God, I may write a book on just this verse very soon.

What are the components of Elijah’s prayer? What are the things embedded in this prayer, that cause fire to fall as soon as he finished praying?

Number one; he said Lord God of Abraham, and Isaac and Jacob. What does that mean? He was worshipping God, just like one of my child said earlier on, he was eulogizing God, he was worshipping him.

When you go through the Scriptures, you will discover that all who worship God got their request granted. You will never find a single example in the Bible, (if you find one let me know and I will give you a hundred thousand naira) of someone who worshipped God in spirit or in truth who didn’t get their request granted.

Matthew 8 v 3 It is the story of a leper; someone who was incurable, someone who was not suppose to be found among the multitude, he came and the first thing he did was that he worshipped Jesus.

He worshipped him before he said I know you can heal me if you want to, of cause he had already prepared the ground for his request to be granted. Jesus merely said I am willing, be thou cleanse.

Mark 5 v 1 – 15 is the story of the mad man of Gedaren, we have talked about him again and again, one of my son refereed to him again tonight, as somebody living in the grave yard, he saw Jesus from afar off, he ran to meet him, fell at his feet.

He was mad remember? But in his madness he still worships God. I have said it before, if a mad man can worship God, what is your excuse for not to worshipping him?

Like I have always said, this man was so mad, that when mad men saw him; they hide. But in his madness, as mad as he was, he recognized the Almighty God and worshipped him.

Read the story very well, he didn’t even pray to be delivered, but God delivered him all the same, worshippers always got their request granted.

Look at Mark 5 v 20- 24, how come Jarius got his daughter restored back to life? He worshipped Jesus! He was a great man but in the presence of Jesus Christ; all men become small.

That is why I feel uncomfortable when I see some so called great men who cannot worship God, when we are praising God and we are dancing, we are rejoicing.

I see some people who think they are too good to worship the King of kings, to worship the original majesty, to worship the original professor, original CEO, there is no one like him, he Is greater than the greatest, higher than the highest, older than the oldest, richer than the richest, better than the best.

Let me hear somebody shout halleluiah!

Do you know when you read Matthew 15 v 21- 28 that even if God wanted to say no to you and you worship him, the no will become yes? This woman came to Jesus and said, “have mercy on me; my daughter is grievously vexed of the devil”.

Number one Jesus didn’t answer a word, she kept pressing on. Just like one of my son said, persistent, perseverance.

Because some of you prayed for five minutes and if God has not answer in five minute, you say okay, He doesn’t want to answer. As if God is your house boy, He is the Almighty, brother; He is the King of all the universe, if you call on Him you need to be prepared to wait till He answers.

I have had the opportunity of visiting head of states all over the world. They are the one who asked you to come; you arrive thirty minute before time, one hour after your time is due, they still have not attended to you. Do you leave? Leave! Do they need you?

Not to talk of the Almighty God, the owner of heaven and earth, the One who can make and unmake , the One who opens and no man can shut, the One who shut and no one can open. The One who can raise the dead, the One who can reverse the irreversible.

And you say because you have talk to him for five minute you are going. Go! There is no problem.

This woman persisted; help me! Finally the disciples came to Jesus and say this woman is disturbing us with her noise send her away. Jesus said I am not sent but unto the house of Israel. The Bible says the woman came and worshipped Him; I know I don’t qualify for a miracle but look at me, I am on my knees. Jesus said yes, but I can’t give the food of children to the dog, the woman said “this dog will remain on her knees until a crumbs falls down from the table.” Jesus said you got it!

God will answer somebody here today.

Some years ago, they were celebrating the centenary of Pentecostalism; 100 years since the Holy Spirit fell in Azusa, and I was invited to come and represent Africa and preach.

Two of us was invited, one from South Africa and myself. It was my turn to preach, the whole world was there and because as far as I am concerned the whole world can be there, the most important thing is that God is also there.

I got the microphone, went on my knees and worship God before I preached. When I finished one of the big men came to me and said “thank you”. I said “for what?” He said “for worshiping God in public, you are not even ashamed to kneel before the crowd.

Some of you can’t even shout halleluiah in Church.

Let me hear somebody shout halleluiah!

I have told you before; people have asked me, when you are holding such a big meeting, convention, Holy Ghost congress etc. don’t you know that the devil is around? Demons all over the place, why don’t you start by binding demons? Why do I need to waste my time with demons and the devil?.

Devil I bind you. But I thought somebody bound him this morning, he is already loose? I don’t need to waste my time binding demons, binding devil and so on. All I need to do is to worship God.

Once God shows up, once light comes, darkness must disappear.

Let somebody shout halleluiah.

So when you hear me saying, Rock of ages, Ancient of days, Holy one of Israel, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning, the ending, the One who is, the One who was, the One who is to come.

Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of peace, the Way, the Truth, the Resurrection, the Life. I know what I am doing. Worship him!

I have told you before; my wife says stop saying that your Father was poor, but it is the truth. He was poor and out of him, God has produced me and there is hope for you too. Glory be to God!

He was poor he had two wives, in spite of the poverty and so, he has many children, and whenever it is time for school to open, you know parents have to pay school fees.

In those days, my father will pick a quarrel with the wives so that they won’t be able to ask for school fees. But my mother always gets my school fees. I have told you how she did it; I happened to be the last boy of my dad. So I was always sleeping with him.

My mother will come when it is a couple of days before the school opens, early in the morning and she will come and begin to eulogize my father; you are the son of so and so, when your father went to war, he captured so many people, he killed so many, when your father threw a party, he fed the civilian he fed the army.

The bird flew for days they couldn’t see the end of your father’s farm (and I will be wondering where that farm!) But my father loved it, as my mother is saying you are this you are that. He will be saying yes, it is true; it is a man you are calling.

Very soon you will begin to hear him say, it will be well with you in this house. Everyday my mother came to say that one, my father feel into it all the time because at the end of it.

It is he who will now turn to my mother and say, and what can I do for your today? And my mother will say, the owner of my head, the husband of my chest. Everybody knows things are hard but your son is about to resume and my father will say “there is no problem.

No problem and there is no money in his pocket but he will go out and borrow, because my mother had eulogize him, she has raised him to a level where he cannot afford to bring himself down.

When you lift up your voice to the Almighty God and you say, you are Greater than the greatest, you are Better than the best, you are Richer than the richest, you are Holier than the holiest.

You can do the impossible, nothing is too hard for You. You are the One who can reverse the irreversible.

You think God will not answer?

Secret number one, worship Him, Elijah started by saying, You are the God of Abraham, you are the God of Isaac, you are the God of Jacob, he was worshiping God.

Then he went on to say, let it be known this day, not only that you are God in Israel but that I am Your servant.

If you don’t study that one very well you will miss it, what is he saying? He is saying thank you for making me your servant and I learnt a lot from that.

Thank You for what you have done for me, thank you for saving my soul, thank you for the blood that cleanses me from all sins 1 John 1 v 7

Thank you because I know it is by grace I am saved Ephesians 2 v 5 – 9 It is by grace we are save not by works, not that anybody should boast.

Many of you come to God as if he owes you a debt, No! You are the one who owns him everything.

That you are still alive today is by his grace, that you can open your mouth to speak is by his grace, that your eyes can still see is by his grace, that you can come here today is by his grace. There are so many things we take for granted that we never thank God for, several things.

Last month, someone who was very, very sick and I was praying for him, after prayer I said, come let’s go for a walk, I know he could hardly move, but I wanted to ginger up his faith, I didn’t want him to lose hope because when you give up fighting, death comes.

So we began to walk very, very gently, one step after another. I said when you are tired tell me so we will let you rest. By the time we are returning to go back, he said “Daddy, you know I have never thank God for being able to walk, I said “you are not the only one”.

How many of you got up this morning and said thank you Lord that I can walk? You took it for granted. How many of us got up and say thank God I can lift my hand? We took that for granted.

How many of you say I thank God I went to the toilet on my own, they didn’t carry me there we take it for granted.

Thank you Lord for what you have done for me. Will somebody lift up his/her hand and say thank you Lord for what you have done for me!

Before you begin to bombard him with your request, thank him. Thank Him for what he has done; thank him for his grace in your life. 1 Corinthian 15 v 10 Paul said, I am what I am by the grace of God.

“And then let it be known that I am your servant”, he said something else something else; he is saying Lord without you I am nothing.

It is easy for me to understand from Elijah, the first time we heard about Elijah 1 king 17 v 11 all we heard about him, was Elijah the Tishbite of the inhabitant of Gilead, they did not even mention his father’s name.

As far as the writers of the Bible were concerned, his father didn’t even matter. His father’s family was so low that they didn’t mention his father name. They mentioned the name of the father of Bartimeaus the beggar, Bartimeaus the son of Timeaus, he was a beggar but his father was a important. But in the case of Elijah, no need to mention his father’s name because it doesn’t matter.

But look at him now, he is about to call down fire from heaven and he is saying, God without you I am nothing. However because I am your servant, because you are behind me.

Like one of my son said; with God backing me up I can do all things, Philippians 4 v 13 says I can do all thing with God through Christ who strengthen me.

Not too long I had a little confrontation with someone very, very important, very, very big and I said to him, “Adeboye is nobody, I have no power, I have no connections, I have no wealth but, the God of Adeboye, is a different matter entirely”

Adeboye is zero, but Adeboye plus his God, don’t mess around with my God, because my God is a consuming fire. When my God says let there be, there will be. When He says let there be not, there will be nothing.

If anybody challenges you as a child of God, let them know; I may be small, but greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world, acknowledge your total dependence on God.

I am Your servant, what am about to ask You to do is not because of me but because of You.

The world has known me with You. If I fail, they won’t think much of me, they will be thinking of You, you are the One that will be responsible because I am Your servant.

There was a song we use to sing in those days;

I have no helper of my own, Holy Spirit help me.

I pray that the Almighty God will help somebody here today.

He went on to say number three; I have done all these things at thy word. There is nothing I am doing here Lord that is not according to your word.

Meaning what? Anytime you approach God in prayer, always attach your request to His word.

Psalm 119 v 89 says forever oh Lord thy word is settled.

So when you want to pray a prayer of deliverance, tell him daddy, it is written; this signs shall follow them that believe, in my name they will cast out demons, it is written.

Say it loud, let the demons hear what you are saying so they will know you know what you are saying. Anytime you want to lay hands on the sick for healing, attach the word, father is written I will lay hand on the sick and they shall recover Mark 16 v 17 – 18.

And if you have to pray for the dead, don’t be afraid. Matthew 10 v 7-8 father you are the one who commanded me to raise the Dead.

Attach his word, father I am going for this interview, you are the one who said I will be head and not tail, I am tired of being at the bottom, I want to go higher, it is written.

And when the world is raging against you, when they begin to fire arrow at you (and I am not talking about arrow that deliverance ministers talks about) I am talking about those who are accusing you falsely, those who are criticizing you.

Tell the Almighty God, it is written they shall come against me in one way they will flee seven ways. I am not going to fight because it is written the Lord will cause the enemies that rise up against me to be smitten before my face. I will wait and see you do the smitten.

People have asked me again and again, each time they are criticizing you on television, on radio, in newspaper, you say nothing. I am not supposed to do anything, my own is to wait and see because it is written.

In 1siah 41 v 10-13 my father says I will help you, I will hold you by your right hand and I say I will help you. Those who are incensed against you shall be as nothing. You shall seek them and you shall not find them. It is written!

How many of you know that it is written that you shall be head and not tail? How many of you know that you shall Live and not die?

Let me hear you shout halleluiah!

The Lord said there is someone here today He said the problem started as ordinary headache and it already becoming something else, the Lord ask me to tell you not to worry; He is taking care of that now.

Thank you Father, the Lord said there is someone here tonight, he said what you need is a spare part from heaven; he said he has released it to you.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight, he said very soon the enemy will come and confess and they will say to you, each time we thought we have clipped your wings, you soar higher.

Elijah said that the people may know that you are God, you know one of the things we suppose to do when we go witnessing is tell the people who our God is.

When you see idol worshipper worshipping idols, they called them by all kinds of name; Sango, Oloju and they begin to call these idols some big, big tittles.

Why don’t you talk about your God? The true living God.

Matthew 1 v21 says he shall call his name Jesus for he shall save the people from their sins.

My God is the savior Exodus 15 v 26 says I am the Lord that heals thee, my God is the great physician.

Psalm 23 v 1 – 6 my God is the great comprehensive provider; he said the Lord is my sheared I shall not want. Psalm 75 v 6 -7 my God is the great promoter; he is the one who promotes.

John 15 v 1-5 my God is the fruitful vine.

In other words, Elijah was saying to God, prove today by backing me up that you are Almighty God. You know one of the reasons why people don’t want to go out to witness is there are not even sure God will go with them, but I want to encourage you; when you go, my God will go with you.

Several years ago around 1974-1975 I had a little group of young people, I was young then, and many of them were younger. We formed what we call called Fishers of men and I send them out in twos and I told them, anywhere you go and you witness don’t argue with anybody, if anybody what to argue just tell them listen; have you a problem? If we pray and the problem is solved, then you surrender to our God. That is the confidence we have in Him.

Some of you have heard the testimony of two of them (she is sitting on the altar right now, she is now an elder) they went to Ota, and they got into the house of the chief herbalist in the town, and they began to talk to him about Jesus Christ and the man laughed and said “I pity you because you are little children, how can you come into my house and be talking about any other God, I am the God in this town; witches and wizard we work together. Anybody who has a problem, they come to me for solution here”.

He said “look up” All over the house all kinds of charms and the children remembered what I have said sir, they said you may be the chief herbalist in this town, we are not disputing that, but have you a problem that you cannot solve with all your charms,? He said yes.

Because he was walking with witches and wizard and these people always come for their own salary.

And the salary is anytime he got married and the wife became pregnant; they will come and kill the poor lady. He was on the seventeenth wife, sixteen had died and finally he has fallen in love with the seventeenth one and he doesn’t want her to die. The seventeen one had become pregnant and as usual the forces of darkness have come for their pay and the girl was bleeding that will lead to her death.

He had tried all his charms but it wasn’t working because of his covenant with the devil. So this little boys and girls said “Let us pray” and they prayed in the mighty name of Jesus, “blood stop” and they left to go to into the next house to witness.

All of a sudden they looked back and saw a man crying after them; my children, my children, wait, wait! And they looked it was the old man. He said “the bleeding had stooped Come and tell me more about your Jesus”.

How many of you believed that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow? Do you believe that?

Let me hear you shout halleluiah to him.

You need to know your God, if you don’t know him you can’t witness about him, I know him, I know that He has a name that above every other names.

I know that at the name of Jesus every kneel must bow. And please let me join my own to what one of my sons has said earlier on, my God answers prayers.

He will answer your prayers tonight in Jesus name.

And then he said “God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Israel, I worship you.

He said “I worship you, I am your servant, thank you for what you have done for me, let it be known today that I have done all this according to your word. Attach his word to what you are saying and let them know that you are God, and then finally he now said that you have turned their hearts to you.”

God, why am I asking for this miracle? Elijah said “so that these people can be converted”.

One of my sons said so in his preaching, he said “why do you need a car, if you are not going to use it for evangelism? Why do you need money if you are not going to use it for the work of God? Why do you want more than you already have? God has met your needs, you are not naked, and you have food to eat. You have a house to live in why do you want more? It must be for the purpose of His kingdom.

They brought in a man who was paralyzed from neck downwards through the roof; Jesus Christ said “thy sin has been forgiven thee. They began to murmur; ‘who is this one talking about forgiving sins?.

Only God can forgive sin. Jesus said alright, let’s give you a miracle, “son get up and take up your bed and go”.

As soon as he got up, the people who have been murmuring said glory be to God, we have never seen it like this before.

The reason many prayer have gone unanswered till now is that the purpose for which many of you are praying has nothing to do with the kingdom of God.

Let me assure you, make up your mind from now on that you will be winning souls for God, you will be doing everything to make sure his Kingdom is expanded here on earth. He will answer all your prayers.

When the Almighty God said “son you are going to cover the arena”, (you remember this place use to be open space) I said amen, Thank you Father, because your children will come I don’t want them to seat in the rain. He said we will cover it, then he said “you are not going to take an offering for it”, I said “ha! Then how is it going to be done? Told you the truth, I ran into the toilet when he said it is you and I. I said “my faith can’t take that, but you are sitting down here now, if it is raining outside it is not going to disturb you. There is nothing you want for his kingdom that he will not do.

How many of you want to be a divine treasurer? Before the end of this year, money will change hands.

The Lord said there is someone here he said I have told you before I am telling you again, I will still surprise those who said you will die barren.

The Lord said there is news coming; he said it doesn’t matter where you are when you get it, he said you are going to scream for joy.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight, he said very soon they will say it to your face, are you the only one serving God, what about us?

In Act 8 v 5-8 the Bible tells us that there were miracles, signs, wonders, happening in Samaria when Philip preached Christ to them. And there was great joy in the city.

How come God was healing the sick, casting out demons, performing miracles through Philip, so that the Samaritans can be converted to God? That is why some of my children have said it again and again; the moment you’ve become addicted to soul winning, Jesus said it in John 15 v 16 , He said you have not chosen me, I have chosen you, (thank you father for choosing me).

I have ordained you, (thank you father for ordaining me) And I have sent you forward, so go forth. Win souls, make sure your fruits abide. Don’t just win souls; follow them up, bring them into the church, pursue them until they become established in the church. He said anything you asked the father in my name, I will do it.

I was trained as a mathematician, and a mathematician knows the meaning of ‘anything’. When a mathematician says this thing is true for all time, you can be sure it is true for all time. God says anything you ask will be done for you. The reason why I believe God has brought this topic tonight is because the miracle of someone can no longer wait.

Because God will seat down waiting for you; because your miracle is out there waiting for you to come and talk to him or her. To come and witness.

I know a sister; for years she was praying to God, God give me a husband. God said “go out and win souls, your husband is not in church yet. She went out, spoke to someone, that one gave his life to Jesus, about six month later she came to me and said Daddy I have a problem, I said ” what is the problem? She said this new convert; this fellow that I have just won to Jesus says he want to marry me.

I said yes, what is wrong with him? You have been praying for him and God has brought him now are you going to say no?

Today they are one of the best families that I know. The husband is the head of the family but he keeps on remembering that he is a convert of the wife.

I know one brother, by the time I finished the story a few of you will know him too. His prayers had always been Lord let me go abroad. I don’t know why, he just wanted to go abroad.

Then one day he witnessed to the boss, (he was an ordinary driver) the boss gave her life to Jesus, the husband of the boss became an ambassador and they said we need a driver over there come along with us. He is in abroad now. I want to go abroad, God says witness, your miracle is out there. I pray for somebody here today, that even as you go out to witness among the souls that you will win; will be the breakthrough you have been waiting for in Jesus name.

The Lord asks me to tell someone here today, he said your ultimate dance of victory is around the corner.

When you read 1king 18 you will discover that before Elijah prayed, if you read from verse 30 -32 he did two things; first he repaired the altar of the Lord that was broken down.

Number two he built a new altar to the Lord. He repaired the altar, God is waiting to answer prayers tonight but please if you have backslidden, repair the altar of God in your heart, come back to God.

You know you have drifted away from him, you know how close you were to God before, now you are far from him, come back to God.

Then he built a new altar to God; that is those of you who have not even given your life to God, do so tonight, give your heart to God.

We are already in June, one of my sons, mention some of the prophecies at the beginning of the year, if you listen to the news, you will see some of these prophecies already coming to past.

In January on the international scene, God said power will change hands this year. It is written there. See what is happening in the world; see how many people that nobody thought can ever lose power have already lost power because Daddy said so.

The same Daddy said “wealth will change hands” It is the same Daddy who says desperate prayers will receive mighty answers. When God says something, get ready for it. And we already in June, and there are certain things that should be happening now that are not yet happening because some hearts are away from him, or some hearts are not even with him at all.

So the first things I want you to do tonight is that every backslider must come back to God and everyone who have not given his life to Jesus Christ before and you are here now, come to God now.

Because let me assure you before this month is over, there will be some mighty testimony but it will be for those whose hearts are right with God.

So if you want to give your life to Jesus come now, if you are a backslider and you want to be restored to the Lord come now.

Keep on praying even as you are coming; ask Him to save your soul or asking Him to restore you.

You are coming as prodigal sons/daughters, you are asking for forgiveness.

Ask Him to be merciful unto you, ask Him to overlook all your sins and if you are coming for the first time ask Him to save your souls today and give you an opportunity to serve Him.

Ask Him to give you an opportunity to taste Him and see how good He can be.

And the rest of us brethren; lets intercede for these people that God who saved our souls will save their own souls too.

let’s ask God to be merciful unto them, let’s ask the almighty God to cleanse them in blood of Jesus and give them a brand new beginning… in Jesus mighty name we have prayed

Father, i just want to thank you, I want to thank you for your word, I want to thank you for these people who have come forward now, you promise that whosoever will come unto you, you will in no wise cast away; they have come to you now father, please receive them in Jesus name. Forgive them in Jesus name, let your blood wipe away all their sins in Jesus name. Save their souls tonight and write their names in the book of life and let their heart become a altar for Jesus Christ in Jesus name.

Father I pray, that because they have giving their lives to you and because the backslider have been restored back to you, from now on when they call on you, answer them by fire. Give them a new beginning, give them a new testimony and please don’t let them ever go back onto the world, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

I want to rejoice with you because from now on I will be joining you in prayer, very soon in the mighty name of Jesus you will be receiving miracles, that is why I am going to need your name, your address and your prayer request. (Please drop them with the counselors)

Now I want to give you some prayer points so that we can talk to God with confidence tonight and I can assure you that God answers prayers.

He answers prayers all the time. He can do much more than you can ask but until you ask, He is not going to give it to you.

He said you have not because you ask not, so I want you to pray with all your heart.

Worship Him generously; spend quality time just worshipping him. Call him by all the names you know. (The rose of Sharon, the Lily of the valley, my Husband, the Lover of my soul, the soon coming King. Call him by all the names you can think of)

Thank Him for all He had done for you and don’t please don’t forget all those things I mentioned that we take for granted (thank Him that you can still see, thank Him that you can still hear, thank Him that you can still speak, thank Him that when you want to eat they don’t have to feed you; you can put the food in your mouth yourself, thank Him that you don’t have to beg before you wear clothe. Thank Him that you are not in hospital today, thank Him that you are not in an asylum. Thank Him abundantly).

Say Father; you always answer those who worship you, please answer me now.

Say father; you are the one who said that I should be fruitful and multiply, make me abundantly fruitful. (Then you can add physically, spiritually and otherwise)

Father, you promise all who go out to witness for you that whatever they ask you will give to them, now I am asking give to me. (Then you list all you want to ask, is it promotion? Is it breakthrough? Is it success? Is it anointing? Is it marriage this year? Whatever is it you want, you can put them in. Because come day light am going out witnessing for you).

Savior; please save millions of souls today all over the word.

Say Father, you are the one who said you have come that I may have life and have it more abundantly; from now on let me begin to enjoy your abundance. (Abundance in health, abundance of testimonies, abundance of breakthroughs, abundance in every areas of my life).

We are going to pray for thirty minutes but please pray with all your heart…

Thank you Jesus, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

That God that you have worshipped will grant your request, the Almighty that you have thanked will give you several more reasons to thank Him.

Beginning from now anytime you call on Him, He will answer you by fire.

As you go out to witness for Him, He will turn all your requests to testimonies.

You will be fruitful, you will multiply, and you will enjoy abundant health. He will prosper you. Every door you knock at will be opened unto you, where there was no way before, God will make a way for you, all your enemies will be at peace with you.

Very soon you will dance the dance of victory God will use you to win millions of souls to himself, you will never lack.

God will support you, he will strengthen you, He will fight your battles for you. Even before the sun rises, you will have testimonies.

So shall it be in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

If you receive that let me hear you shout halleluiah!

If you are born in May shout another halleluiah!

By the grace of God in June we will have a very special Holy Ghost service and we will be discussing THE SECRET OF ANSWERED PRAYERS.

That tells you that’s one Holy Ghost service, you must not miss at all. You need to come and learn the secrets of answered prayers and then the Saturday following that one by the grace of God, all over the world; all our children will go out for evangelism.

Every one of us will go out as we leave here; to go and win souls for the Almighty God and you will see what God will do for you in return in Jesus name.

Let’s open our Bibles to Psalm 102 v 13 Thou shall arise and have mercy on Zion (you can put your name there) for the time to favor her yea, the said time is come.

If you receive that let me hear you say amen loud and clear.

Tonight we want to talk about OPERATING UNDER DIVINE FAVOR.

The pastor who spoke before have done an extremely beautiful job. And I just want to add a little bit to what he had already said, from this text we discovered that when a man’s time of favor comes God will do two basic things; number one he will arise, number two; he will show mercy. Only those two basic things, thou will arise and show mercy for the time to favor her yea, the said time has come. When the time for favor comes, God does two basic things.

Number one he arises, now Psalm 68 v 1-3 says let God arise and his enemies will scatter. Now when we will say the enemies of God will scatter the question that comes to your mind immediately is; who are the enemies of God?

When you look at Act 9 v 1-5 you discovered that the enemies of God are the enemies of his children. There was a man called Saul of Tarsus he was persecuting Christians, he was throwing them to prison, he was killing them, he was doing all manners of evil against them and then one day he got permission from the leaders to go to Damascus, that if he should find any Christian there at all he will take them bound to Jerusalem so that they can be dealt with.

On the way the Lord met him and knocked him down from the Horse. Do you know those who are persecuting you are about to be knocked down. Then God spoke to him and Saul, Saul, why persecuted thou me? And then Saul said how can I be persecuting you, I don’t even know who you are.

Then God said it is me you are persecuting, when you are persecuting my children. You see those who are tormenting children of God they don’t know that they are in serious danger because they are actually fighting against God and when God arises his enemies will scatter.

So if I were you I will congratulate the man beside you and say your enemies are about to be scattered.

When you go through the Scriptures you will see several examples of what happen when God arose, for example if you read Exodus 3 v 7-8 it is when God arose for Israel that there deliverance from Egypt came, he said to Moses he said I have seen the afflictions of my children, I have seen what the Egyptians are doing unto them.

You see many at times, we think God does not see, but God is not blind, everything that is happening here on earth he is observing and when it is time in his infinite wisdom to arise, he will arise.

And I have a feeling that the time for him to arise is now. The time for him to arise is now, he is about to arise for me, he is about to arise for me, he is about to arise for his church, he is about to arise for Nigeria, he is about to arise for the world. If you believe that let me hear you say amen.

When you read Judges 15 v 1 -15 it tells you the story of Samson dealing with the Philistines and then the Philistines decide they were going to revenge and the children of Israel decided; let’s sacrifice Samson.

His relatives came to him they bound him and they handed him over to the Philistines.

I once preached a sermon on when God is silent. When they got Samson on the mountain top and they were bounding him, God didn’t say anything, when they were binding him; God kept quiet.

When they handed him over to the enemy; God didn’t say a word, until the enemies began to rejoice, thinking that now we got him, then God will arose. God will arise for somebody here today.

And when God arose suddenly all the ropes bounding Samson, the bible say it was burnt as if it touched fire and somehow he landed where there was a jaw bone of an ass already waiting. Do you know the weapon that God will use to deal with your enemies is within your reach right now?

And before we knew what was happening; one thousand of the enemies lay dead and the others fled. When you read 1 Samuel 17 v 1 -51 for forty days Goliath was terrorizing Israel; he was getting up in the morning terrorizing them, in the evening terrorizing them and God kept quiet.

But one day, God arose. And when God arose in the morning, by the night time the head of Goliath was already gone. Tonight in the name that is above every other names, the Goliath in your life is about to lose his head.

When you read Daniel 3 v 13 – 30 you will see the story there of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego when the king said they must bow down and worship his idol and they refused, God kept quiet.

When the king was boasting; I am going to deal with them, I am going to throw them into the fiery furnace, I am going to make the fire to burn seven times than normal, God kept quiet. When they were binding the three of them, God kept quiet.

When they were carrying them towards the fire, God kept quiet. But just before they landed in the fire, God arose!

Do you know that whatever problem followed you here tonight, will not follow you back home? Because the time for God to arise for you has come, if you believe that let me hear your halleluiah!

When you read Daniel 6 v 18- 28 you will see it there, that when the enemies of Daniel were holding their meetings plotting how they will destroy him, they said something, they said we know him; there is no way you can corrupt him, the only way you can get him, is to ask him not to pray, he will pray to his God.

You know the enemies had been saying that concerning many of you; they said the only thing you can get him not to do is not to go to the Holy Ghost night, he will go there to pray, so let’s wait till he goes, well God is watching and he is listening.

When they said let’s get him into the den of Lions, God didn’t say a word. When they threw him into the den of lion and they rolled the stone across the mouth so that he won’t be able to escape and God arose and suddenly Lions became like lambs.

Do you know all those things that have been frightening you very soon now, they will be toys in your hands?

Let me give you just one more example because the bible is full of what happens when God arose.

In Act 16 v 25- 34 the Bible tells us about what happened to Silas, you know before that they had already cast out a demon out of a girl, the people got angry they beat them, they threw them to prison and they told the jailer keep them save because by tomorrow morning we are going to kill them.

And then the Bible says at mid-night, Paul and Silas began to pray and they began to praise God. They were doing what we are doing tonight and suddenly God arose and when God arose, the earth began to shake and very soon there was an earth quake. And the prison doors were flung open, every man’s bound were loosed.

And the man, that they say should keep these people save so that they can kill them tomorrow; is the now the one who began to wash their wounds, who began to give them food.

I have good news for somebody here tonight, because your time of favor has come; your enemies will become your servants.

So number one, when the time of favor comes, God will arise.

Number two, he will show mercy.

I can go through the scriptures from the beginning to the end, to show you all those who received mercy from the Lord what were the outcome.

But the bible says something in Lamentation 3 v 22 – 23 he says it is of the mercies of the Lord that we are not consumed, thank God it is renewed every morning. But for the mercy of God how many of us will be alive today?

If God has not been merciful unto us; many of us were born into a family where the father probably had six or seven wives.

And out of the six or seven wives maybe five of them are witches and maybe your mummy alone is the only who didn’t know anything at all and yet the Almighty God preserved your life.

How many people are in that category? Let me hear you shout halleluiah!

It is of the mercy of the Lord that we are not consumed and because of that mercy that is why you are going to get your breakthrough tonight. Because when you read Mark 1 v 40 -45 the Bible tells us the story of a leper who came to Jesus Christ and said I know you can make me clean if you are willing.

In order words I know you have the power, but I am not even sure I qualify for a miracle, the Bible says Jesus Christ did something very great, he touched the leper.

And the Bible says you must not touch a leper, because if you touched a leper you yourself will become unclean. But the one, who made the law, broke the law. Why?

Because they said he was moved by compassion. Mercy moved Him. Tonight every law that is against you shall be broken because God will show you mercy in Jesus name.

In Romans 9 v 15 – 16 the Bible says God said I will be merciful on whom I will be merciful (and am sure I am the one He is talking to now)…

I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. It is therefore not of him

that runeth, nor of him that willeth but of God that showeth mercy.

Nobody succeeds in this world except God had mercy on him and he will have mercy on you tonight in Jesus name.

I am going to take just one case study to show you things that will happen when a man is operating under divine favor.

And the example I am going to use is Joseph, there are several things I can tell you about Joseph.

In fact I wrote a whole book on him, on the faithfulness of God (if you want you can go to CRM bookshop and you get the book) it is a whole book, but tonight am not going to go over a whole book, I am going to mention seven things that will happen to somebody who is operating under divine favor.

Number one: You cannot kill a man operating under divine favor, nobody can kill him. Genesis 37 v 19- 20 the bible says when the brothers of Joseph saw him coming, what was it they said? behold the dreamer comes, let us kill him.

They said let us kill him, I mean ten big men decided that the time has come for a young boy to be killed but they forgot something, they forgot that this man was operating under divine favor.

I want to assure every one of you here tonight, you will not die before your date. How do I know? Because Deuteronomy 32 v 39 the Almighty God said I am God and there is no one else, he said I am the only one who can kill, and I am the only one who can make alive.

And he said there is no man who can deliver out of my hand, in other words no one can kill. Nobody can kill anybody God does not kill and I can assure you; God is not going to kill you at all.

So when God arises when there are enemies who have made up their minds that they want to kill you and then God arises what will happen? Deuteronomy 28 v 27 And God will cause the enemies that rise against you to be smitten before your face.

Do you know what that one means? you are standing still, enemies arose against you and while you are watching you just see the enemies collapsing. You don’t have to do anything all! God will cause the enemies that rise up against you to be smitten before your face, he said when they come against you in one way they will flee seven ways.

When God arises for you nobody can kill you, the Bible say in Isaiah 54 v 17 he says no weapon fashioned against you shall prosper. If God arises for you, every weapon of the enemies will be neutralized.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight, he said all you have left is faith in God, he asked me to tell you that will be enough.

Daddy said there is someone here tonight, he said the doctors are confused about your case he asked me to tell you I will heal you all the same.

Isaiah 41 v 10 – 13 God says I will help you, he said I will hold you by the right hand and I will help you. He said those who are incensed against you, will be as nothing, he said you will look for them, you won’t even find them.

When God arises for you, those who says they want to kill you, they will scatter and that is going to happen tonight in Jesus name:

Number two, when a man is operating under divine favor, not only can you not kill him, you cannot kill his dreams. There are several people who just like Joseph had some very big dreams. Big dreams! In Genesis 37 v 5 -11 Joseph had a dream.

Then he told his brothers, even an idiot could interpret the dream; this little boy said the dream I had is that all you my brothers you are going to bow down before me.

And the brother said, “You! We will see”. Then he had another dream, again he dreamt, and this time he said not even just the brother; my father and my mother they too they are going to be bowing down, so they said “alright we will see”.

When they saw him coming they say we will kill him and when he dies his dreams will die with him.

Many of us when we are young we have wonderful dreams, some of us by now as we are getting old, we begin to wonder what is going to happen to those dreams. I have good assurance for you, if you are operating under divine favor; those dream as big as they were they will come to past.

Because In Genesis 50 v 15 – 21 those brothers, the same brothers, who wanted to kill Joseph and kill his dreams, came, fell down before him and they say we will be your servant.

Am assuring someone here tonight, all those who have ganged up against you who say they must destroy your dreams; very soon they will come and bow down before you, why? Because when a man is operating under divine favor, God arises for him.

The Lord said there is someone here again tonight, who is asking the question again and again, when will the battle be over? The Lord asked me to tell you very soon.

Psalm 33 v 10-11 the Bible says that the Lord bring the counsel of the hidden to nothing, he makes the devices of the people of none effect but the counsel of the Lord shall stand forever.

So it doesn’t matter what they planned against you, it doesn’t matter their evil imagination, as long as God is on your side the original plan of God for your life shall be fulfilled in Jesus name.

I have told you this story before, but I will say it because of those who are listening all over the world who had never heard it.

In 1951 in my little village but it’s no longer little glory be to God. It was a small village, in those days only two Lorries come to town per day, one is Austin the other is Bedford and you can tell by the sound they make.

At that time I can tell you the total number of people with pairs of shoe in the whole village; they were very few, I know the headmaster had one, the king had one, the catholic priest had one and some other people so you don’t get the number.

And so the Anglican bishop from Ibadan came to visit our village and we in the primary school we lined up to receive him, the village hunters didn’t go to the farm, they were firing their deign guns to give the Bishop gun salute. And he drove in a very new black car.

Remember, only two Lorries come to the village, here comes a car. He was wearing the robe of a bishop, beautiful robe and when he was coming out of his car, I looked at his shoes, oh God! It was shining beautiful, I have never seen anything like that before, my mouth was wide open, and then when it was time for him to go, every farmer were giving him gifts; chicken, yams, eggs.

When I got home that day, I told my mother, I said mama; I am going to be a bishop.

That was 1951, then I grew up, went to school and dropped out of church for years, I didn’t even go to church at all talk less of Bishop.

But as God will have it somewhere along the line, He met me, He saved my soul, one way or the other He promoted me and I became General Overseer.

Then in 1981 I was visiting my village as General Overseer, and they arranged for the school children to line up the route, the hunters were firing their guns, I drove in a brand new car and as I was about to come down from the car I looked at my shoes.

Let somebody shout halleluiah!

Thirty years after I had the dream it came to past, your dream too, everyone of them shall come to past in Jesus name.

Number three, when you are operating under divine favor, at home you will shine. According to Genesis 37v3 among all the children of his father, Joseph was special, what made him special?

They said he was the son of the old age, but that is the excuse. He was special because God made him special. Tell your neighbor, you may not know it but I am special to God.

So his father made him a coat of many colors, Isaiah 60 v 1-2 he said arise and shine, why? For your light is come and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you, it is not anything particular, that made Joseph special, it is the glory of God upon his life.

In 1 Samuel 16 v 11 – 13 when God wanted to pick a king in the house of Jesse, he picked David, David shone among his brethren.

The Lord says I should tell a particular girl, he said because I reserve till the last, he said your celebration will be superior to those who have gone before you.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight; he said very soon you will know the meaning of all things work together for good to them that love God.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight; he said you have been relegated to the back seat, he said I will bring you to the front row.

In 1 Samuel 16 v 15-18 you will discover that when an evil spirit began to trouble king Saul, and his servant told him, ‘sir you need a musician to play so that this evil forces will leave you alone’ and he said ‘okay, get me someone’.

They said ‘we know one man who was an extremely good musician and he was a valiant man of valor’ they were talking about David. Even at home he was already shinning.

And in the name that is above every other name, from now on you too will begin to shine at home.

Number four, when you are operating under divine favor even in strange land, he will shine. When Joseph got to Egypt in Genesis 39 v 1 -6 the Bible says almost immediately he arrived in Potiphar house he began to shine, Potiphar just took a look at him and saw the way things were going and said I hand over everything to you.

How do you hand over everything to a prisoner? a prisoner that you have just bought , a prisoner that you don’t know anything about. But because God was arising for him abroad he was shinning.

The Bible says in Psalm 121 v 8 God says I will keep your coming and your going out. In other words, it doesn’t matter where you go, you will still shine there.

In Daniel 1 v 8-20 the Bible tells us when Shedrack, Meshach, Abednego and Daniel got to the foreign land where they were taken to slavery, the Almighty God showed them favor and by the time they finished their training they were ten times more better than other wise men. Abroad they shine!

In Genesis 24 v 1 – 14 Isaac was in a foreign land and there was farming in the Land and because he obeyed God, God made him to shine at the time that there was famine in the land; he prospered so much he became the envy of the entire nation.

I have good news for someone here tonight, very soon the whole nation will know about you.

I have told this story before, several years ago, when I was still a lecturer at the university of Lagos, there was this conference of applied mathematician in Canada and I happened to be one of the two people sent from Nigeria to go and represent us, and I felt very big because Nigeria is sending two people and they included me.

When we got there for the opening night, the man who was to make the opening remark (I think at that time I had published about 12 papers, it is your publication that they use in promoting you) but when they introduce the man who was going to do the opening talk they said he has published a hundred and fifty papers, I said what am I doing here?

Then he began to talk on what he called the mathematic of the rain. And I know two days later they were going to call me to stand before all these people to present my paper, what am I going to say in the presence of somebody who is talking about the mathematics of the rain?

I tell you a secret , I prayed hard; ” Almighty God when it’s my time to present my paper don’t let this man come”, But when the time came he was seating in the front row. Probably he came because I was so young, I am talking of 1976 or so, and I was afraid, because when somebody has finished preparing papers, others begin to ask him questions.

So it is not the presentation I am afraid of, it is how am going to answer their questions.

Then I presented my paper and everybody got up and they began to clap including that man!

I am prophesying to someone here today, anywhere you go, you will prosper.

Number five, when you are operating under divine favor, whatever he does prospers Genesis 39 v 2 the Bible says in Potiphar house Joseph was a prosperous man, then Genesis 39 v 21 – 23, even when Joseph landed in prison, again, God was with him and whatever he did prospered.

When a man is operating under divine favor, anything he touches will begin to succeed, he will begin to prosper.

Thank you father, the Lord said there is someone here tonight; he said that which was introduced into you while you were sleeping had been removed tonight.

Daddy says there is someone here tonight; he said the cause of your delay has been dealt with right now.

Jeremiah 17 v 7 -8, the Bible tells us that when a man put his trust in the Lord he will be like a tree planted by the river side he said whatsoever he does shall prosper.

Do you know that you can sell pure water and become a billionaire? If God is with you, anything you touch will prosper.

You can sell fire wood and become a billionaire, whatever he does shall prosper. In the name that is above every other name, your prosperity begins now.

Number six, when a man is operating under divine favor, his promotion is certain, there may be a delay like in Genesis 40 v 1 – 23 the Bible tells us that after Joseph interpreted the dreams to some people and he told the one that was going to be in the court of Pharaoh he said when you get back to your position please remember me, but the bible says the man just forgot him, for two years he forgot the one who had done him good, but that is because the time wasn’t right yet, when the time came, the one who has forgotten remembered.

There are many of us who are here tonight, we have done good to several people, but in our times of trial they have forgotten us.

They don’t even want to see us, they don’t want to help us at all, but I have good news for you; things are about to change.

All those who should help you, who have forgotten about you, tonight they will have a dream, God will send them a dream so that by the time they wake up they will be looking for you.

When a man is operating under divine favor, his promotion may be delayed but it will surely come to pass.

In Genesis 41 v 38-40, the Bible says finally they brought Joseph out of the prison, and Pharaoh said we can’t find another man as wise as this, the spirit of God is in him, therefore let put him in charge.

The Lord said there as you begin to pay your tithe fully he was so move you from not enough to more than enough.

Those who say that we will soon see his end shall wait in vain.

Thank you Lord, the Lord said there is someone here tonight, anytime it is your time they will say no more, he asked me to tell you; I will change all that now.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight; he said for the rest of the year, one success will follow another in quick succession for you.

Isaiah 75 v 6-7 tells us that promotion does not come from the east or from the west or from the south he said God is the judge, He raises one and pulls down another.

God the great promoter will bring your promotion speedily in Jesus name.

Like I told you before in 1 Samuel 2 v 7-8 when the Almighty God decides to promote you, he keeps on promoting, he can take you to any height, and he can take you to place you never dreamt possible. He just keeps on promoting, after all his arm is an everlasting hands.

If human being promotes you they can bring you down, if news paper promotes you one day they will turn against you the same people who are writing good thing about you today, with great joy they will write evil things about you. Because they know it is evil news that will sell their papers.

It is not they are wicked, it is just their job. But when God promotes, you he keeps promoting you forever.

And I have good news for somebody here; your promotion is beginning right now.

Am sure you will remember the story of one lecturer in one university, the Head of department said because he refused to join a secret society he said this fellow will never be promoted as long as he is the head of department.

This young man who gave his life to Jesus Christ mentioned the case and we cried to the Almighty God.

After all the Almighty God said if you have faith and you doubt not, you will say to this mountain, mountain be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea and it shall be so. If the Head of department decided to make himself a mountain, we tell mountain to move.

Every mountain blocking your way tonight shall move in Jesus name.

And suddenly there was a coup a new government came and the new government for one reason or other decides to remove all professors who were head of department at that time.

And the Head of department came. And the head of department said ‘I want to see the files of all those who are under me and they couldn’t find the file of this man.

The master has seen to it that the file was well hidden. They kept searching and finally they found the file and found out that there had been no recommendation for that man for more ten years.

No single recommendation, because they file was hidden and the new boos said there is only one way to compensate him and he gave him double promotion. Everything that had been denied you shall be returned seven folds in Jesus name.

Finally number seven: When a man is operating under divine favor, he will surely reach the top. There is no way you can keep down somebody who is operating under divine favor.

In Genesis 41 v 44 the bible said Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh and I am saying to you Joseph in the land of Egypt nobody will lift his hand or foot without your permission.

He said they must all obey me and I am saying I am taking the back seat, you rule, nobody will do anything without your permission.

Deuteronomy 28 v 13 when you are operating under divine favor, you will be head and not tail, you won’t stop until you reach the top and God is talking to someone here tonight.

In 1 Samuel 22 v 1 -2 even when David found himself in the cave of Adullam and al lot of vagabonds, people in distress people in need, people who had problems, gathered themselves together to him, he was still their captain, even in the cave he was captain.

Then later on in 2Samuel 2 v 4 in spite of everything that the enemies had done he was anointed again to be king of Judah, then in 2 Samuel 5 v 1 -3 finally everybody came and said listen you are to be king of Israel.

I say it one more time, that goal where God is taking you, you will reach there in Jesus name.

The Lord says by the time the sun rises tomorrow, it will bring you a new break through.

Daddy says there is someone here tonight; he said I will give you a taste of exceeding great joy.

Daddy says there is someone here tonight, he said when next you share your testimony people will say surely God is great.

By the time you get to Mark 10 v 46 -52 you hear Bartimeus saying something about Jesus, he says Jesus thou son of David.

Now the bible tells us that Jesus is the king of kings and yet the bible records for us that David is the father of king of kings, now that is absolute top.

He started asking among his brethren, he became captain over vagabonds in the cave of Adullam, then he became king over Judah, then he became king over Israel and then he kept on rising until he became father of the King of kings.

I have good news for somebody here today, in the name that is above every other names, I will see you at the top, because that is where I am going.

I am going to the top, anybody going to the top with me? I will see you there in Jesus name.

This is the reason why anybody who has any common sense at all will not want to offend God.

Because he is the only one who can give you divine favor, He is the only one who can make sure that nobody can kill you, He is the only one who can make sure nobody can kill your dreams, He is the only one who can make sure you shine at home, He is the only one who can make sure you shine abroad, He is the only one who can make sure that even if your promotion is delayed, it will still come to past.

He is the only one who can make sure you will finally reach the top.

That is why in Genesis 39 v 7 -9 when a woman the wife of Potiphar, tried to entice Joseph into committing sin, Joseph said no way.

The woman said nobody will know, I am the mistress of this house, my husband is away, whatever I say is final and when I ask everybody to clear out of the house, they will clear. So we will do this thing secretly nobody will know.

Joseph said I am not talking of your husband; I am talking of God, how can I do this thing and sin against God?

Your husband has done great thing for me, he has left everything in my hand, but he is only an instrument in the hand of God, I cannot dare offend God.

Many at times some people they think when they look right and they don’t see any one, they look left and they don’t see anyone and the door is locked. They think everything is okay; I can do whatever I like now. God is watching!

I am sure you heard the testimony of a member of the choir, not in our church but in another church. The pastor has agreed with her to go to a hotel and do all kind of things.

And they got to the hotel, they were about to enter the room, again the pastor looked round right and he looked left nobody knows us here, but as they were about to enter the room, the girl said to the pastor, we have looked right, we have looked left, she said but we didn’t look up. She said God is watching. That was how she escaped.

Do you know God is watching you? And it is good news that is why the enemy cannot reach you without him knowing. If He is watching you, that is why he can keep your going in and your coming out.

If he is watching you that is why he can monitor what you are doing so that he can make it to prosper. If he is watching you that is why he can make you to find favor anywhere you go.

But because he is watching, that is why you cannot afford to offend him, no matter well you locked the door, you can’t lock God out, he himself is the door, when he wants to come in he doesn’t need a key.

That is why people have asked me again and again, why do you keep on hammering on holiness? I said ‘I have seen a little in my few years in this world, I am seventy years old now.

I have seen people rise and fall, I have seen people promoted by God crashing to the ground. Becoming nothing, why? Because they offend God,

I can assure you of one thing, when I became born again and I was running up and down, winning soul, Doing one program after the other, some people says take it easy that is how they always start, very soon he will go down.

I told them then others may go down, this one is not going to go down. And I am telling you brethren you have not seen anything yet, I am going to go on higher and higher. Why because I have learnt the secret; as long as there is no quarrel between me and God the rest is easy.

Everybody can be against me if God is for me, I am more than conqueror, that is why I am appealing seriously to those of you who are here tonight. Because this is a very special night indeed, if you are still leaving in sin, it is time to repent, if you have not given your life to Jesus Christ before, come and do so tonight.

If you say you are a Christian and you are still living in sin; you are a backslider, come and give your life back to Jesus Christ. Holiness is the master key, you live holy, the rest is settled.

This is a very special night; a night of favor and the Almighty God will have divine favor on you if you repent.

Call on the Almighty God, ask him to be merciful unto you, ask him to forgive you your sins, ask him to save your soul and the rest of us lets stretch our hands to all these people and intercede for them, that God the savior will have mercy on each and every one of them, that God will forgive them and he will watch them clean in his blood.

Ask God to be merciful unto you, ask God to forgive you your sins ask God to put your name in the book of life so that you too can begin to enjoy divine favor … in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

My father and my God I want to thank you for all these people who have come forward tonight, thank you for your word, I thank you because you promise that whosoever will come unto you, you will in no wise cast out. These people have come to you now, please receive them in Jesus name.

Your blood that cleanses from all sins let that blood wash away their sins in Jesus name. Today as you save their souls write their name in the book of life in Jesus name. Beginning from now anytime they call on you, please answer them in Jesus name.

And let them begin to enjoy divine favor in Jesus name. Every backslider that has come back to you tonight, please restore full in Jesus name, and don’t let them ever go back to the world in Jesus name. Thank you Almighty God, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Let someone shout halleluiah!

I want to rejoice with those of you who are in front here, I want to promise you one thing, by the special grace of God I will be praying for you, so I am going to need your name, your address and your prayer request. I promise you I will be praying for you.

The rest of us while we wait for our brother to be attended to, why don’t you thank God for the mercy of God that have kept you till this moment, if you know how many times the enemies have tried to kill you, if you know how many meetings that the enemies have held at night concerning you and God destroyed their plans, you will be grateful to God.

So go ahead, begin to praise God, begin to magnify his holy name, for being merciful to you, for his faithfulness, for his support, for loving me, for standing by me, for helping me, for supporting me… in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Prayers for the night:

1, Thank God, for his infinite mercy
2, Father, don’t let me ever annoy you again
3, Father, please arise for me: for my family, for your church and for my country.
4, Father, don’t let me die before my time.
5, Father, don’t let my dreams of greatness die; help me fulfill them
6, Father, let me shine at home, abroad, and everywhere.
7, Father, whatever i touch, please make it prosper.
8, Father, please accelerate my promotion now.
9, Father Take me to the very top soon
10, Father, let me forever operate under divine favor
11, Your Private request.

… in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

The Lord will answer all your prayers, the grace never to offend God again, receive now in Jesus name. The Almighty God will arise for you, He will arise for your families, He will arise for his church, he will rise for your nations, and you will not die before your time.

All your dreams of greatness shall be fulfilled, you will shine at home, you will shine abroad, you will shine everywhere.

Whatever you touch will begin to prosper, God will accelerate your promotion. He will take you to the top. For the rest of your life, you will operate under divine favor it shall be well with you.

God will fulfill all your dreams, he will grant all your requests and your joy shall over flow, so shall it be in Jesus mighty name we have prayed. (Amen).

Let someone shout halleluiah!

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

April children shout another halleluiah!

By the grace of God, next month if Jesus tarries, we would have a special Holy Ghost service: under the theme: OPERATING UNDER DIVINE FAVOUR. And am sure the workers know they have a brief meeting after the Holy Ghost service next month.

Tonight we want to talk about the RISING STARS. Whenever God gives a theme, it is a word of prophecy and so I believe that those who are here tonight;

number one you will be stars. Number two you will begin to rise. Now I am not talking to everybody actually, I am talking to somebody.

There is somebody here tonight who will be a star, there will be somebody here tonight who will begin to rise.

Rising Star. In English, two words; Star and Rising. Now who is a star? A star in the simplest language is someone who excels.

And am starting tonight by decreeing to someone here; from now on you will continue to excel.

For example; David excelled in Music in 1 Samuel 16 v 15 -18 when the king needed a musician, somebody told him, we know someone who is a star in music and his name was David, he was a star in music.

Because we are dealing with children tonight we will move a little fast, because we could show you that a Elisha was a star in sport, Daniel was a star in administration, Solomon was a star in wisdom, Moses was a star in meekness, the daughter of Job were stars in beauty. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were stars in commitment to God. Elizabeth the mother of John the Baptist was a star in purity. Paul the apostle was a star in Anointing. David was a star in gratitude to God.

I pray for someone here tonight; in every facet of your life, you will become a star.

Then what do we mean by rising? It simply means going higher, increasing in success, increasing in brilliance, increasing in skills and increasing in ability. When we talk of going higher, you read Genesis 26 v 12-14 the Bible showed us a man called Isaac, Bible said he waxed great and then went forward and then increasing, that is an example.

He kept on going higher and higher. In Genesis 40 v 43 the Bible tells us about Jacob, how he increased exceedingly and then we can give you several other examples but because of time, we all know that when we say something is rising, it means it is getting better, it’s shining brighter, it’s becoming more and more known.

In the name that is above every other name, you will keep on rising, you will be rising in joy, you will be rising in success, you will be rising in power, you will be rising in anointing, you will be rising in glory.

Now when we therefore talk about RISING STAR, it means someone is already a star and now the star is becoming bigger and brighter. I know some of you may not believe it if I say you are already a star, but the word of God said it; that God calls things that be not as though they were.

And every one who is my child here tonight, you are already a star and your star will be getting bigger, it will be getting brighter in the Mighty name of Jesus.

Now we could find several examples in the Bible, we find a young man called Philip in Act 6 v 1-6

Thank you Father! The Lord says there is someone here tonight, he ask me to tell you; stop being afraid, because the destroyer will not visit your family again.

So there is this young man called Philip in Act 6 v 1-6 he started as a deacon; to become a deacon, he was already a star; people have sought him out and they found him to be a man of good report; full of holy spirit and faith and then they make him a deacon, very soon he became an evangelist, he kept on rising and rising.

In the name that is above every other name, by the time I see you again next month; you will be higher than where you are now in Jesus name.

Now how do I become a star?

There are various ways of becoming a star, one of the ways is to be created a star. Genesis 1 v 16 tells us that God made the stars also, in Jeremiah 1 v 4-5 God told Jeremiah, even before I formed thee I knew thee, while you were yet in your mother’s womb, I have already sanctify you, I have already set you aside to myself, I have already anointed you a prophet to nations.

There are some stars that are stars even from the womb. In Luke 1 v 13 -17 even before John the Baptist was born, it has already been prophesied that he will be great. Some people are created stars.

Then some people are born as stars; the son of a king is called the prince, from day number one the day a prince is born; he is born a star; if it’s a girl we call her a princess.

In Genesis 12 v 1-3 God told Abraham that through his seed all the nations of the world will be blessed. So those children who are even yet to be born had already been made a blessing by God, so when the children of Abraham began to arrive they had no option but to shine.

The son of a star is a star.

The son of a goat cannot be a dog. One of my sons said the day the son of an elephant is born, that day the son of elephant is already bigger than the son of a cow. The son of an elephant cannot be like the son of a cat.

By the special grace of God I am a star and so all my Children are stars. If you are one of my children shout halleluiah!

Then some people are made a star, some people are promoted to become a star for example Deuteronomy 34 v 9 tells us that Joshua was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses laid his hands on him.

The reason Joshua became a star is because Moses laid his hands on him, that is why tonight as we lay hands on all out children, even if they were not starts before they will become a star.

Thank you father, The Lord said there is someone here tonight, He said your parents are insignificant, he said but you are going to be great.

The Almighty God said there is someone here tonight, He said the only thing that has been increasing in your life is poverty he said but from tonight the tide will turn.

The Lord said there is a child here tonight that all you have ever been is just average, He said but from today you will become brilliant.

1 Samuel 16 v 1-13 we see the story of David he was in the bush, he was not loved, he was not appreciated, his father did not even count him worthy of anything, but the Almighty God took him from behind and turned him to a star.

I am praying for someone here tonight, even where you are not yet known, the Almighty God will pick you up and turn you to a star.

Thank you father, the Lord says there is a woman here tonight, he asked me to tell you, he asked me to you not to worry, he said next year you will bring your own children.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight, he said all the weapons of all your enemies are already render useless.

Some people are created a star, some are born a star, some are made a star and some people achieved stardom. Somebody like Daniel, he was taken into slavery but because the Almighty God was with him and he himself stayed with God; little by little, step by step, he became one of the three in the entire kingdom. According to Daniel 6 v 1-3 he was a slave at the beginning but at the end he was one of the best three, one of the ruling three in the entire kingdom.

I am prophesying to my children here tonight; out of you shall come president, out of you shall come great rulers, out of you shall come managing directors. In the name of Jesus you will reach the top.

And so when we look at the greatest example we have; that is Jesus Christ himself you will see he was born a star, he was called the bright and morning star and he was made a star. Matthew 28 v 18 He said all power in heaven and on earth has been giving unto me.

And then of course He achieved stardom according to Philippians 2 v 5 – 11 the Bible tells us because of the sacrifice that he made on a good Friday like a day like today, because of the sacrifice He made, He ended up with a name that is above every other names.

So that at the name of Jesus, every kneel should bow.

And I am saying that in name of Jesus every problem in your life will bow today.

Now, how do I rise?

I am already a star, whether I was created a star or I was born a star, or was made a star, or I achieved stardom. The question now is how do I get my star to keep on rising? That is the crucial thing we want to discuss very briefly tonight.

Rising is a principally in God’s hands. Psalm 75v 6-7 tells us that promotion does not come from the east or from the west, or from the north and it doesn’t come from the south. It says God is the judge, He raises up one and he pulls down another.

The Almighty God will raise you up.

In 1 Samuel 2 v 7-8 the Bible tells us that it is God who can make rich or make poor, He is the one who raises up and He is the one who pulls down, He is the one who can take the beggar from the dunghill and begin to raise them up until they begin to seat with princes.

And I decree in the name that is above every other name that from this moment, you will only be going higher, you will never go lower in Jesus name.

Deuteronomy 33v 27 tells us that the hands of God are always underneath, he said underneath are the everlasting hands, no matter how low you are now, the hand of God is already underneath you , and so all God need to do now is to lift you up.

That is why I am rejoicing with you, you will never go lower than where you are now.

So God is the one who controls rising, however you can influence your own rising, there are things you can do that will enable you to rise very fast because Hebrew 11 v 6 says God is a rewarder of those that diligently seek him; he decides who goes up, he decides those who goes down but if he is going to reward me, he cannot reward me with down grading me, he can only reward me by promoting me and he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.

And He also says in his word in Proverbs 8 v 17 He said I love those who love Me and those who seek Me early shall find Me.

If I love Him, He will love me, if I seek Him early I will find Him and if I seek Him diligently He will reward me. James 4 v 8 says if I draw near to GOD, God will draw near to me.

I can influence my rising; if I love God, he will love me, if I draw near Him, He will draw near me, if I seek Him diligently He will reward me. Even though He is the Almighty, He is a God of principles. He follows his principles in all His actions. If I do what I should do, He will lift me up.

Thank you Lord the Lord says there is someone here tonight he said the evil cloud over your family has been rolled away.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight, he said I will not help you alone I will help your children also.

This one is for those of us, who are student;

The Lord said there is some one here tonight; he said I will enlarge your mental capacity greatly.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight he said before the end of this month expect another major testimony.

The Lord said there is a family here that has become used to frequent tragedies, the Lord asked me to tell you from now on you will become use to frequent joy.

In Proverb 3 v 9-10 the Bible made it clear if you put God first, if you honor Him with your increase, with your substance and you honor him with your first fruit he said he will respond in such a manner that people will noticed that you are becoming excessively prosperous, you will begin to shine financially.

He says in Malachi 3 v 8-10, He said those who rob Him of His tithe He will curse, He said but those who bring all the tithe to His house, they will shine financially, that is what is say, once you know what to do, do it and leave the rest to God.

He said if you take this step this is what I will do, then take the step and see what He will do. But when He says take this step this is what I will do and then you do contrary to what He says, how can you expect you will continue to rise.

You can influence the rising of your own stars. And then you can influence the rising of your own children.

Thank You Lord, the Lord says there is someone here tonight he ask me to tell you, he says I specialize in making something out of nothing., he said I will make you great.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight, he said I have surprise you before, I am now about to astonish you.

Proverb 22 v 6 says train up a child in the way he should grow when he is old he won’t be able to depart from it. The training you give your children will determine how they will end.

Many parents have destroyed the future of the children because they didn’t give them the right training at the beginning.

Some ladies find it difficult to settle down in their husband’s home because their mothers didn’t teach them even how to cook. The mother didn’t teach them how to behave when they get to their husband’s house and so the future was even destroyed before they left home.

Train your child the way to go; when he gets to the top he won’t be able to depart. When we talk about training the children, God said in Deuteronomy 11 v 18-19 He said what you talk to your children about when you are in the home with them; is what will determine how God will respond to them.

In other word, when your children are sitting down at home playing with you, what is the kind of discussion they are listening to? God says when you are talking to your children, you are suppose to be telling them about God, the word of God, whatever you tell your children is going to determine what their future will be.

One of the major problems some men of God have had in the past is that in the church they say something, at home they say something different, so the children becomes confused and they begin to wonder; so at the end of the day they don’t even want to have anything to do with the church.

You can influence what happens to your children, and all of us who have failed our children up till this moment, may the Almighty God forgive us in Jesus name.

May the Almighty God give us the grace to repent immediately our ways in Jesus name. May the Almighty God give us the grace to restitute our ways in Jesus name.

As for you children, you can influence your own rising too Proverb 22 v 29 the Bible says seeth thou a man diligent in his business, he will stand before kings and not before mean men. No matter how young you are if you are ready to work hard; God is ready to promote you.

God is not going to promote somebody who is lazy.

The fact that you are born a prince does not mean you will become a king. They say there is no royal road to success. The elders will tell you; princes have become slaves before because they fail to work.

Children listen to me, “many of you are spending too much time watching television, you are spending too much time playing games, you must learn to work, the world is not a bed of roses, there is a lot of struggling going on and those who will work hard will make it to the top. If your parents are the type that will push you, glory be to God”.

My mother used to push me, thank God for my mother, of cause thank God for my father he loved me but he was always in the farm. When other children are playing outside, my mother will ask me to seat down and study my books, and I will tell her other people are enjoying.

My mother will tell me other people children are not my business. You, you are my business, and you must do what I tell you. I thank God for her, she pushed me and thank God I allowed myself to be pushed. You children because your stars will begin to rise, you better seat up and begin to work hard.

There are many of you in the schools and the colleges and you are not studying hard and you think you can pass by bribing somebody. That can only take you far to a certain level. There is one thing that will take you to the top in life; hard work. See a man diligent in his business; he will stand before kings not before mean men. Hard work in everything that you do.

I have said it before there are some Christians who are believing God for breakthrough but they are lazy, let me tell you the truth; no breakthrough is coming for a lazy person, because God knows if he gives you the breakthrough, out of your laziness it will slip out of your hands.

I have seen so many Christians; bricklayers, carpenters, other trades; if they have been hard working on this camp ground alone, they will have become a multi billionaire by now.

But you give them a job to do; 10 am they are still eating breakfast they haven’t started work at all. I start my own day by 5 am, only God knows when I close. They will begin their work by after 10am they want to close by 4pm. Such people when they get one job they never get another.

I am praying for all of you who are listening to me because you are my children, you are stars, you are going to rise but you must work hard.

Seeth thou a man diligent in his business! Tell your neighbor “stop being lazy and your star will begin to rise”.

The second thing you can do children so that your star can rise fast is that you must obtain the blessings of your parents; the Bible says honor thy mother and thy father that your days may be long.

When you honor your parents they will bless you and the blessing of your parents will take you far. I have said it again and again, I am where I am today; by the grace of God and by the blessings of my mother.

Anytime I please my mother, anytime I did something for her that makes her happy, she will pronounce blessing on me. One blessing in particular that I didn’t understand then; is “son, because you have done this; you will call one fellow two hundred will answer you”. I didn’t understand what that one means, but today by the grace of God if I call one pastor and I didn’t mention the particular name, even in this place where we are, if I say pastor come, they will be more than two hundred who will come.

I am pronouncing the same blessing on all my children, you will call one fellow one thousand will answer you.

Honor your father and your mother that your days may be long that they may bless you and that your star may continue to rise.

Let me say one more thing to you parents, you parents cannot be a star if you are in sin; you cannot be covered in sin and shine and if the parents are not a star, how can the children be a star?

If you are living in sin, you are an enemy of God, how can you be an enemy of God and expect God to cause you to rise? How can God promote you when you are doing things contrary to his will? The bible says you cannot continue in sin and expect grace to abound.

Parents listen to me, those of you who for one reason or the other don’t want to surrender your life to Jesus, for the sake of your children, surrender your life to Jesus.

If you have made up your own mind that you want to live the rest of your life suffering, if you have made up your mind that you want to go to hell, please think of your children, consider your children, because if you are not a friend of God it is difficult for blessing of God to come upon your children.

The elders have a saying that it is the one who is mother is loved, is the one that we would appreciate the child. If you are an enemy of God, God cannot love your children, so I am talking to those parents who are here tonight; if for no other reason, because of your children, give your life to Jesus, become a friend of God. When you become a friend of God, then God will become a friend of your children.

As for you children, nobody is ever too young to surrender to Jesus, you can surrender your life to him today and he will turn you into a star. So those of you who want to give your life to Jesus whether parent or their children, you can come now

… And as you come; talk to Jesus Christ, ask him to be merciful unto you, ask him to save your soul, tell him to write your name in the book of life, ask Him to save your soul, tell Him you want to shine for Him, ask Him to wash you clean in His blood, that from now on you will do His will. Talk to Jesus Christ now!

The rest of us let’s stretch our hands towards these people and intercede for them; That the Lord Almighty will save their souls, That God will be merciful unto everyone of them, that their salvation will be genuine, that the Almighty God will wash away all their sins in his blood, let’s pray for the salvation of these people.

And those of you who are still on the way keep coming, the Almighty God is calling you and he is waiting to save your soul…

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Saviour we bless your name, we give you all glory, we give you all honor, for all these your children who have come forward today, you promise that whosoever come unto you, you will in no wise cast out, these your children have come now, please receive them in Jesus name.

On this particular Good Friday this day when we are remembering when you shed your blood on the cross, wash away all the sins of these people in Jesus name.

Write their names in the book of life and give them the grace to serve you for the rest of their lives and from this moment onward, anytime they call on you please answer them in Jesus name. Thank you Almighty.

In Jesus name we have prayed.. in Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Now I want to rejoice with those of you who have come forward tonight because from tonight forward by the grace of God I will be praying for you, very soon you will be receiving miracles that there must be somebody praying for you, so I am going to need your name, your address, and your prayer request, the counselor are around you, they will give you a card to fill, fill the card very quickly and then submit back to them.

The rest of us while we are waiting for these people we can begin to talk to God, ask him for forgiveness, if you have failed your children in any way whatsoever and give you grace to fulfill your role as a parent onward. And if you have been doing your duty correctly; in a night like this, you should be thanking the Almighty that he has made you a very good parents, and many of us needs to thank God tonight, for the kind of parent God gave us, parents that helped us to become what we have become. So let’s spend some minute talking to the Lord.

PRAYER POINTS:

Praise God that we have this opportunity, that we and our children can come for these special anointing.
Father, in all that I do from now on, let me excel.
Father, promotions comes from you, please promote me this year.
Father, as my children grow in age; let them grow in Wisdom and in the knowledge of God.
Father, let my children be head and not tail. Above and never beneath.
Father, as for me and my children, let us keep rising forever.
Father, don’t let anyone or anything truncate the destinies of myself or my children.

I implore you to pray with all your heart, it’s only for 20 minutes.

In that Name that is above every other name from this moment onward everything you do will succeed.

In every area of your life you will continue to excel, because God is the great promoter He will promote you. And as our children grow in age, they will also grow in wisdom, they will grow in the knowledge of God, all of them will be head they will never be tail.

They will never be servant to their colleagues, they will be above they will never be beneath.

All of us children and parent alike we will keep on rising, nobody will truncate our destiny, we will all keep on rising, it will be well all of us, our joy will always over flow.

And in the Name that is above every other names, from now on you will keep on shining.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Let’s wave our hands to the Almighty God and shout another halleluiah

The Peace of God, which surpasses all understanding

Peace in crisis

Ted, one of the elders in our church, used to be a police officer. One day after responding to a report of violence, he said the situation turned life-threatening. A man had stabbed someone and then menacingly turned the blade towards Ted. A fellow officer had taken position and fired his weapon at the assailant as he attacked Ted. The criminal was subdued, but Ted was shot in the crossfire. As he was driven by ambulance to the hospital, he felt deep waves of peace flowing over his soul from the Holy Spirit. Ted felt so tranquil that he was able to offer words of comfort to the law enforcement officer who was emotionally distraught over the crisis.

The Lord Jesus Christ promised us peace in crisis. Just hours before His own crucifixion, Christ comforted His disciples with these words: “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (John 14:27).

What is your worst fear? If you should have to face it, Christ will be there with you. Trusting Him through prayer makes available “The Peace of God, which surpasses all understanding,” and it “will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus”

The secret of peace is to give every anxious care to God in prayers!

May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Cast all your care upon God for He cares for you

GOD KNOWS ALL YOUR PROBLEMS!

“Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you.” (1 Peter 5:7)

God is able to carry our worries, stress, and daily struggles, if we trust Him fully with our lives

We need to recognise that God cares about our needs and to let others also help us.

The personal Ten Commandments, Helen steiner Rice developed that guided her through the wilderness of her own life, can also assist to pull us out of our despair.

Thou shalt be happy.
Thou shalt use thy talents to make others glad.
Thou shalt rise above defeat and trouble.
Thou shalt look upon each day as a new day.
Thou shalt always do thy best and leave the rest to God.
Thou shalt not waste thy time and energy in useless worry.
Thou shalt look only on the bright side of life.
Thou shalt not be afraid of tomorrow.
Thou shalt have a kind word and a kind deed for everyone.
Thou shalt say every morning, “I am a child of God and nothing can hurt me.”

A loving behaviour can be a part of everyday life, no matter the problems you are going through.

Don’t submit to your circumstances!

God controls all circumstances!

May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

We are the clay and You are our Potter O Lord God

We are the clay, and You are our Potter O Lord God

Imagine a beautiful china tea cup saying: “I wasn’t always like this. There was a time when I was just a cold, hard lump of clay. One day the potter picked me up and said, ‘I could do something with you’ Then he started to put pressure on me and change my shape. I said, ‘What are you doing? That hurts. Stop!’ but he said, ‘Not yet’. Then he put me on a wheel and began to spin me around and around until I shouted, ‘Let me off.’ He replied, ‘Not yet’. Then he shaped me into a cup and put me in a hot oven. I cried, ‘Let me out of here, I’m suffocating.’ But he looked at me and said, ‘Not yet.’ When he took me out, I thought his work on me was over, but then he started to paint me. I couldn’t believe what he did next. He put me back into the oven, and I said, ‘I can’t stand this, please let me out!’ but he said, ‘Not yet.’ Finally he took me out of the oven and set me on a shelf where I thought he had forgotten me. Then one day he took me off the self and held me up before a mirror. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I had become a beautiful teacup that everybody wants to buy.

There are things going on in your life today that you don’t understand. When you finally get to the place God wants you to be, you’ll realise that He has been making you into a vessel He can use, bless, and use to bless others. So, allow God to shape you today!

May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!
