Let somebody shout Hallelujah … Hallelujah!

SONG: Immortal God, Invincible God, Immortal God, how great thou art!

OPENING PRAYER:

King of Kings, Lord of Lords, the Unchangeable Lord; thank you.

Thank you for January, February, March, April, May, June. Thank you for the first half of this year. Thank you for bringing us to the 2nd half. Please accept our Worship in Jesus Name.

Tonight, as we gather together to dine with you – my Father and my God; in all of our lives do something Precious, do something Glorious, do something Miraculous.

And even as we cross over to the 2nd half of this year, let us cross over to Blessings.

… In Jesus Mighty Name we have prayed … Amen!

Let me hear someone shout Hallelujah … Hallelujah!

Shake hands with 1 or 2 people and say: God bless you. And you make be seated.

BIBLE TEXT: 1 JOHN 5:4

For whatever is born of God overcometh the world and this is the Victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

In the Name that is above all Names, for someone listening to me (reading) now; your Victory will be Complete and your Victory will be Permanent!

Victory or defeat starts from within.

For example, in Numbers 13: 30-33; ten (10) of the spies that Moses sent to go and visit the Promised Land said from within themselves that there is no way we can win.

By the time we get to Numbers 14: 20-35; the Almighty God said that since they say they cannot win then let them lose.

In 1 Samuel 17: 34-37; David defeated Goliath. By the time we get to 1 Samuel 17:51; the head of Goliath was dangling in the hands of David.

He (David) won before the battle started because he had it within himself that he will win.

Daddy knows that there is someone here tonight, it does not matter how big the enemies may be; you will win because you have it within you that you will win.

Permanent Defeat therefore begins from within. It is when someone comes to a stage in his life where he thinks there is no need struggling and there is no way he could win; that he will want to commit suicide. When a man commits suicide then he is defeated.

Whereas Permanent Victory comes from within.

In Psalms 118:17, David said that: I shall not die but live and declare the works of the LORD.

… If that is what you believed then say it loud and clear: I shall not die but live.

All of these starts from within.

Proverbs 18:14 says: The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear.

That is why JOY which is an inside thing gives strength.

… The Joy of the Lord is my strength.

And because Jesus Christ is constant according to Hebrews 13:8 – Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever; then the Joy of the Lord is also constant.

That is why Paul said in Philippians 4:4 – Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say rejoice.

Everyone of you whose Joy is based on the fact that you have Jesus Christ, let me hear you shout Hallelujah … Hallelujah!

Then our Bible Text said that we overcome the world by our Faith.

Faith is an internal something. The person that believes that he will win will win.

If Jesus Christ is dwelling in you, there is no way you can lose.

Hebrews 12:2 says -Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

As long as Jesus Christ is in you, no matter what happened, because you are living in Him now; people will be wondering how you survive. Everywhere you turned that you have been suffering one tragedy or another tragedy but now you will live and overcome.

… Let me hear someone shout Jesus … JESUS!

Don’t be discouraged as long as Jesus Christ is still in you.

Colossians 1:27 says – To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of Glory!

In Galatians 2:20, Paul said am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.

… As long as He is living in me, I know that I will keep on living.

That is why each time that we come to the Holy Communion Service; it is not a ritual or casual Service. It is something that is very special. It is a Service that you come to reaffirmed to the devil that he is just wasting his time over you as long as Christ is in you – you will surely overcome.

When we take it; the bread is a symbol of His body that was broken for us. Even if there is a problem; as long as Jesus Christ is there; they are over.

And if we drink the wine, it is a symbol of His blood. The bible says the life of an animal is in the blood. And so by taking the blood we know that we shall live.

So it does not matter what happened because someone here may be wondering are we going to live and survive? If am in the Church am I secured, when am sleeping am I secured and even when am travelling am I secured?

… Listen to me: Christ is in you, the hope of Glory.

Stand on your feet now and lift your head high: Say devil whether you like it or not; I will live, I will overcome and I will succeed because Christ is in me. The author and finisher of faith is in me. I will overcome and I will not die. My tomorrow will be alright. As long as Christ is in me, all will be well.

Let us remained in the attitude of worship as we give the people that are yet to give their life to Jesus Christ a chance. So if you are here and yet to surrender your life to Him; come here to the altar in 2 minutes as I count from 1 to 7. You need Him for a time such as this.

For those of us in the front; talk to the Almighty God to come and dwell in you, save your soul and tell Him you need Him at a time such as this.

For those of us that are remaining; let us stretch our hands to them that the one dwelling in us will also dwell in them; forgive their sins, wash away their sins, write their names in the Book of Life and make their hearts His throne.

GO PRAYS: Saviour, we want to say thank you for your Words and say thank you for these people that gave their life. Father remember your promise that for as many people that comes to you, you will no wise cast away. They have come to you today, please received them, save their souls, forgive their sins, wash away their sins and write their names in the Book of Life. Please come and dwell in them. In Jesus Name we have prayed … Amen!

So let us approach His table with Joy, Excitement and Reference. That as you are coming to dine with Him with His symbol of the body and blood. So that you can tell the enemy that you cannot crush me again because Christ is dwelling already in you.

This is why it is advisable that you don’t take the Holy Communion unworthily.

ADMINISTRATION OF THE HOLY COMMUNION

When you are served the bread and after daddy has given us the go ahead; you can eat the bread. But when they served you the wine wait for everybody to be served so that we all take it together.

As you eat the bread tonight; tell every sickness and diseases in you that you will not stay in my body.

As you drink the wine tonight; you make a declaration of Faith: I decreed and declared by the Power of the Holy Spirit; I will be Permanently, Completely and Absolutely Victorious in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ. I shall live but not die and declared the Glory of God. My hope is only of success and not defeat, failure or hopelessness.

THANKSGIVING OFFERING:

Let us bring out the offering that we want to use to say thank you. We cannot pay for the body and blood that was shed for us. But at least we can say thank you from the bottom of our hearts that we appreciate what He has done for us. Then we can use that means to show the devil that he has failed over us.

… So lift up your offerings to the Almighty God and say: Father, I thank you for the Victory over poverty, lack, distress and hardship.

So with the joy of the Lord in your hearts, locate the closest basket to drop and drop your Thanksgiving Offering. Celebrate with your friends Then you can rejoice with your neighbour because we have the Hope of Glory!

CLOSING PRAYERS:

I hereby decreed that by this time tomorrow, you will have a Testimony. That mountain in your life shall disappear. Your Victory will be Complete, your Victory will be Absolute and your Victory will be Permanent.

Father, bless their offerings, sanctified it and you it for your Glory.

And let our Victory over poverty be Permanent.

… In Jesus Mighty Name we have prayed … Amen!

So tell your friends, coworkers and neighbours that tomorrow Holy Ghost Service will be extraordinary. So just make sure that you are here.

Who is already blessed tonight?

Let me hear you shout Hallelujah … Hallelujah!!!
