OPENING PRAYER

Father Almighty I want to bless Your Holy Name this Easter Sunday Morning.

We give You all the Glory and Honour because we know that You are Alive. And because You live, we can face tomorrow. Please accept our Thanks in Jesus Name.

Lord, in the lives of ALL Your children (Including those reading now on the DMC Platform) – I Pray that this Day will be an Easter Sunday with a difference; an Easter Sunday that they will never forget.

Please Lord, have Mercy on all our Nations and let these crises be over soon.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Well let someone shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

Happy Easter Sunday to you all.- The Entire DMC Family Members fondly rejoice with you all as well.

The Almighty God who has brought you to this Day will continue to be with you in Jesus Name – Amen.

PREAMBLES

1. Before I go any further, I want to bring Good News to someone.

I want to tell you: MY GOD IS NOT DEAD – AMEN!

… HE IS ALIVE – HALLELUJAH!

Not only is He Alive, He is in Control.

If you have any doubt at all; the situation in the recent Past should show you clearly that He is in Control.

2. I want to also advise that we should remain on our Guards – It will be unwise to relax too soon.

And when I say relax, I’m not talking about being anxious; I’m talking about becoming careless.

We are not out of the Woods yet – We will be (Amen) and it won’t be too long (Amen).

But like I told you before; you know that there are those who said that the whole thing will be over by end of March. Some people said that it will rain for seven (7) days and then it will be over.

… That is what the Prophet said.

But what your little dad who is a Pastor, who is not a Prophet told you is that this thing is going to be on until God has proved beyond all doubts to the whole world that He is in charge.

… Until the whole world has had the “Compulsory Holiday”.

I hope you are enjoying your Holidays?

I am enjoying mine. It might be a little bit difficult but like somebody said: There are some of us who don’t know how to slow down and God Himself has to apply the brakes.

And I can assured you that it has been a “Wonderful Time” alone in the Presence of the Almighty God – Not jumping up and down but just relaxing.

… Knowing fully well that tomorrow will be alright – Amen!

As we get seated in our homes or settling down to reading it from the Full Text Message Transcription of the DMC Media Crew; even as we open our Bibles to Matthew 28: 1-7.

1. In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
2. And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
3. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4. And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5. And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

Now between every two (2) Days; there is always a Night.

Everybody knows that you don’t have to be a big Philosopher to know that in every two (2) Days; there is always a Night.

Now when I am talking about days in this situation; I mean that we are not talking about twenty four (24) hours because a day is a Period.

It could last few Months, it could last few Years.

In the Scriptures the Bible said that it could even last for a thousand (1,000) Years. And at times, it could even be more.

For example; let us take the case of Job – The first (1st) Day of Job for instance; we don’t know how long it lasted.

But if you read Job 1: 1-3; we found a man who had seven (7) sons, three (3) daughters, seven thousand (7,000) Sheep, three thousand (3,000) Carmel’s, five hundred (500) Oxen, five hundred (500) She Asses and a very great Household

… The Bible called him (Job) the Greatest in the East.

That was during his first (1st) Day – Everything was beautiful.

But then came the Night.

And if you want to read about the Night of Job; you can find it in Job 1: 13 to Job 2:10.

He lost everything: He lost all his children, he lost all his wealth, he lost his health and he almost lost his marriage.

… That Night lasted for nine (9) Months – Thank God it wasn’t too long.

And then came his second (2nd) Day.

And if you want to read about his second (2nd) Day; you can read Job 42: 10-17.

This time around: He has fourteen thousand (14,000) Sheep, he has six thousand (6,000) Carmel, a thousand (1,000) oxen, a thousand (1,000) She Asses. And he had seven (7) sons, three (3) daughters and the second (2nd) Day lasted for a hundred and forty (140) Years.

… Between two (2) Days, there is always a Night!

Now the one we are particularly interested in and of course it has to do with the Lord Jesus Christ Himself because that is the one that concerns us.

His first (1st) Day came when He was born:

1. In Luke 2: 8-14; the Bible tells us that even the Heavenly Choir – Mass Choir paid a visit to the world to come and sing Glory to God in the Highest.
2. And then followed Miracles like in the Wedding in Cana of Galilee in John 2: 1-11; and Healing like in Matthew 8: 1-3; and Deliverance like in Mark 5: 2-20; like Success to failure like in Luke 5: 1-7 and Joy like in Luke 7: 11-15.

During His first (1st) Day, there were Miracles, there were Signs, there were Wonders, Healing, Deliverance, Success, Joy.

And incidentally, the first (1st) Day lasted for about thirty three and half Years.

And then came the Night as you read in Matthew 27:45:

1. The Day He was crucified; the Sun refused to Shine.

There was darkness even at Noonday to signified that ok one (1) Day has ended and here comes the Night.

2. And there was loneliness – His Disciples abandoned Him (Matthew 26:56); His Close friends denied Him with a swear (Matthew 26: 69-74) saying: I swear I don’t know Him.
3. There was sorrow all over.

The Bible said that Peter wept bitterly – Matthew 26: 75.

It wasn’t Peter alone that was weeping that Day; there was sorrow all over the land.

4. And then there was Fear that led to a lockdown.

In John 20:19; the Bible says that in the house where His Disciples were, all the doors were shut for the feet of the Jews.

… There was a lockdown and there was Fear!

But then came Day No 2 – Thank God the Night lasted only for three (3) Days.

And I want to Prophesy to someone here today: If you are in the Period of Night; in the Name that is above every other names that Night will end today – Amen.

Then came Day No 2 as in the Bible Text that I read to you this morning in Matthew 28: 1-7.

Several Things happened to herald this New Day:

1. There was a Great Earthquake to signify to all His Followers that all yokes were gone now.

Because in Acts 16: 25-26; when there was an Earthquake like that; the Bibles tells us that everyone yokes were loosed.

And therefore I’m Prophesying today in the Name of Jesus Christ on this “Resurrection Morning”; every yokes left in your life will be destroyed in Jesus Name – Amen.

2. And then the Angel came down – There was Angelic Visitation.

And just one (1) Angel is enough to take care on one hundred and eighty five thousand (185,000) Soldiers according to 2 Kings 19:35 – One (1) Angel dealt with one hundred and eighty five thousand (185,000) Soldiers of the enemy.

That is Good News to you: Because I’m sure no matter how many your enemies are, they are not up to an hundred thousand (100,000).

… And the Angel of the Lord will visit you today + Amen and destroy all of them – Amen.

3. The third (3rd) thing that happened was that: The Angel rolled away the stone.

The stone was rolled away.

If you remembered a similar situation in John 11: 39-45 when Jesus Christ wanted to bring Lazarus out of the grave.

The first (1st) thing that He commanded them to do was that the stone be rolled away.

So, today in that Name that is above every other names; every stones blocking your Way to Destiny shall be rolled away – Amen.

4. And then the Angel sat on the stone to say that anybody who dares come and ask me to stand up so that you can roll the stone back.

He sat on the stone to say: This time around; Permanent Victory – Amen.

From today onwards, every doors that God opens to you will remain Permanently opened in Jesus Name – Amen.

5. And the Bible says the Keepers – Those who are standing there to make sure that the stone will not be rolled away become Paralysed by fear.

The Bible says that they were so frightened that they fell down as dead.

Ah, that is Good News for you. Because from this “Resurrection Morning”, when your enemies see you coming; its either they run or they faint.

As a matter of fact; if you look at 1 Samuel 17: 45-51; the Bible tells us that not only that did Goliath died, his head was cut off to signify Permanent Victory; Irreversible Victory.

And for all of you my children; the children of the Living God; from this morning onwards your Victory will become Irreversible – Amen.

6. Then the Angel announced to all “True Seekers of God”; to all those who came that early Easter Sunday Morning the Good News!

… He told them that: HE IS ALIVE!

Revelations 1:18; the Bible says that Jesus Christ said: I am the Alpha, the Omega, the One who was dead and is now Alive

He said: Behold, I am now Alive forever!

Oh, when I was a Lecturer in one of the Universities (In Nigeria); my colleagues, my senior colleagues – Highly Intellectual People with tremendous Academics Achievements; they were divided in Categories.

At the time I was talking to them about Jesus Christ:

I. Some of them will say that God is dead.

II. And some will say: No, He is not dead.

Maybe what you should said is that He created the whole world because from the little we can see from Science; it requires Great Intelligence to put all these things to Position.

But at the end of the day, He discovered that what He created was too big for Him and so He might not be dead but He has lost Control.

III. And some of them who wants to be Generous will say: Well whether dead or not; I don’t know; Whether He lost Control or not I don’t know.

But one thing that I know is that: He is Heaven minding His own Business and I’m here minding my own Business – Laughs!

May I tell all of you – Young and Old; God is not dead!

How do you know?

Ah, He spoke to me not too long ago and I told you.

He told me that this Year the whole world will be like a “Child in Convulsion”

I didn’t make that up. There is no Mathematical Textbook that you can read that from – I heard from Him!

I heard from Him that the whole world will be on “Compulsory Holiday” – That was what Daddy said.

When you watch the News and you see Great Nations where people move around twenty four (24) hours a Day; Cities that never go to sleep – Completely deserted because somebody said: I want to show the world I’m in Control.

Ah, Glory be to God – Hallelujah?

My God is Alive, He is in Control and whether you like it or not; at the Name of Jesus Christ sooner or later, every knees will bow – Amen.

… He said; tell the Good News: HE IS ALIVE!

And you know the Joy of that for my children? According to Colossians 1:27 – Because this Jesus Christ is Living in you; you have the Hope of Glory – You have a Glorious tomorrow.

Let me conclude by telling you this: When He rose from the dead, He is actually signifying the time for a “New Beginning” has come!

For a “New Beginning”: A “New Beginning” of Miracles, of Signs, of Wonders.

I. Look at Acts 3: 1-8 – You will see a Fisherman making a lame to walk.

Please my beloveth children; see yourself very, very soon making the lame to walk – Amen.

II. Look at Acts 16: 16-18 – And you will see a “Child of God” casting out demons.

Please see yourself from this morning onwards commanding demons to leave and they will obey you – Amen.

III. And if you read Acts 19: 11-12 – You will read of the Almighty God that He Performed “Special Miracles” by the hands of Paul.

All those who are saying; Shut your mouth, it is not Jesus Christ in Control – Pray for them because very soon in the Name of Jesus Christ that they are Blaspheming now; they will be Performing Miracles – Amen!

Just make sure that that they don’t leave you behind because they are coming.

For you my children, you True children of the Living God; according to Psalms 30:5 – Weeping may endure for a Night; Joy comes in the Morning.

Your Morning of Joy had come – Amen.

ALTAR CALL

In conclusion: The Bible makes it clear in John 3: 18-21 that a sinner can prevent his Morning.

That when God wants to say enough of the Night: that you have suffered enough, come out of sorrow, come out of sickness; a Sinner will say: “Mind your Business”.

John 3: 18-21, it says: This is the Condemnation that the Light had come into the world but men preferred darkness to the Light because their deeds are evil.

But you don’t need to be one of those who will stay in the Night forever – Come into the Day!

Come, surrender your Life to Jesus Christ and your own “Resurrection Morning” will begin.

That is why the Bible says that: If any man be in Christ, he is a New Creature; Old things has passed away, everything has become New.

Everything can become New for you today if you surrender your Life to Jesus Christ.

And this can become the “Resurrection Morning” you will never forget.

So, I’m appealing to those of you who are yet to surrender your Life to Jesus Christ even right there in your homes today or reading right now from the Stables of DMC; please just bow your head and surrender to Him.

You have suffered enough: Come out of darkness, come into Life, come into Light.

And you know the worst part of it: If you refuse, there is a Place where there is No Light at all forever – Another word for it is Hell.

If you reject the offer of the love of Jesus Christ; that will be where you are heading.

And please, I’m pleading with you today: Come to Jesus – Surrender your Life to Him; Come out of darkness; Come into Day!

PRAYER FOR SALVATION

Bow your head now and cry to Him and say: Come into my Life, save my Soul and I will serve you for the rest of my Life.

And the rest of us, let us Pray for these people; let us intercede for them for a minute or two – That the One who saved our Soul will save theirs also.

Please call on the Almighty Saviour for all these people: That this “Resurrection Morning” might be their own “New Day” – A Day that could last forever.

Oh, Thank You Father. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

CLOSING PRAYERS

My Father and my God, I want to Thank You very, very much for Your Words; I want to Thank You for this “Resurrection Sunday Morning”; I want to Thank You for giving us a “New Beginning”.

I’m Praying Lord God almighty that the Night will be Permanently over in our lives.

That our Day that will last until Eternity will begin afresh today in Jesus Name.

Give everyone of us a “New Beginning”: A “New Beginning” of Joy, of Success, of Miracles, of Signs, of Wonders.

And Lord God Almighty; make us “Agents of the Good News” so that we will tell the whole world JESUS CHRIST IS ALIVE.

Thank You my Father and my God.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!!!

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

1. Now I want to encourage you my beloveth children that even as I have left the Altar; in your various homes or as you are reading the DMC Transcript since you cannot go anywhere; Spend time talking to God today!

Asking Him for “New Beginning”:

I. A “New Beginning” of everything that is Good, that is Glorious.

II. A “New Beginning” of Anointing so that you can serve Him like never before.

III. A “New Beginning” of Consecration, or Rededication to Him.

IV. A “New Beginning” of Divine Promotion, of Progress, a Brand New Beginning, a Day that will never end.

… Spend Time talking to Him and He will grant all your request!

2. Now before I go, I want to announce to all Ministers and to all Workers that because of the situation in the Country; we can’t have our usual Ministers and Workers Conference.

We have had to cancelled the ones in the East and North and even the one in the South here cannot hold.

So, what I have decided to do God helping me is that I am going to do some two (2) Tape Recordings for all of you which you can watch on DOVE Media.

I believed that maybe you can take the first (1st) one maybe on Friday evening (17th April, 2020) – So that you have plenty of time to relax. And then take the second (2nd) one on Saturday (18th April, 2020).

Because we usually do it for two (2) days anyway.

And I’m telling you that there will be some “Serious Revelations”.

So don’t miss them as I believed that God Himself in His Infinite Wisdom want to extend what we have been enjoying to the whole world.

… Don’t miss it!

It is actually for the Workers and Ministers. But since all of you who are not Workers will soon be Workers anyway; you are welcome to join.

God Bless You!

Let somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!!!

Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
