OPENING PRAYER AND PRAYER FOR THE SEPTEMBER BIRTHDAY CELEBRANTS
Almighty God we bless Your Holy Name.
Thank You because there is No One like You – You are Higher than the highest; You are Greater than the greatest; You are Older than the oldest.
All Power in Heaven and Earth belongs to You – Heaven is Your Throne; the Earth is Your Footstool.
Thank You Almighty: Thank You for January; Thank You for February; Thank You for March; Thank You for April; Thank You for May; Thank You for June; Thank You for July; Thank You for August and Lord Thank You for September.
Please, accept our Worship in Jesus Name.
My Lord and my Saviour; I’m Praying tonight that in the lives of all of us; You will do something Special. That today will mark a Brand New Beginning for everyone of us.
Lord God Almighty; all Your children who are Trusting You for the “Fruit of the Womb”; Please answer them this very moment.
Every yokes that may be binding their Wombs; my Father and my God destroy tonight in Jesus Name.
As for Your children born in the Month of September; Father I’m asking that You will give them a New Beginning: A New Beginning of Joy; a New Beginning of Success; a New Beginning of Promotion; a New Beginning of Anointing; a New Beginning of Fruitfulness.
Father, I’m Praying that by this Time Next Year; everyone of Your children Trusting You for one Breakthrough or the other will come back rejoicing with Mighty Testimonies.
And Lord God Almighty; on a very Permanent Basis give us Victory over this Plague.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Now, wherever you may be or reading now on the Label of DMC; shout to God Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.
- By the Grace of God; our Youth Convention will be Virtual and it will be coming up in the Month of October, 2020.
And I can assure you that it is going to be very, very Glorious.
Their Theme is: THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR.
That Theme alone should tell us that it is going to be a very, very Great Convention.
- Now; I Promise you last Month that tonight (Referring to the September, 2020 HGS) that we will be having the Holy Ghost Service (HGS) right here at the Camp (Redemption Camp).
Now, that Promise is in two (2) Parts:
I. Part 1 says that: I will be Standing here on this Altar to Minister to you and not in any Studio.
II. Part 2 means that: You will all be here.
So, we have made all the arrangements for Social Distancing, for Hand Washing, for Sanitizing – So that we will be here.
But for one reason or the other; you are not here.
Now; if I made a Promise and the Promise is in two (2) Parts – And I’m fulfilling one (1) Part of the two (2); that is Fifty Percent (50%).
Now, that is a Pass Mark.
So, wherever you are (or reading now on the Label of DMC); shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
- I want to assure you that this Plague as far as we are concerned in Africa will soon be over – Amen.
So, I want you to Please continue to follow Instructions – Keep Washing your hands, Sanitizing and don’t be like that funny friend of mine who says: Well all they asked us to be doing now is washing our hands and so we don’t need to worry about washing our bodies.
… Laughs: Wash your body and make sure that you wash your hands regularly.
And then of course; wear your Mask.
Don’t say that you want to follow some of the examples you see on some People not following the Instructions of the Government.
Let us be Law Abiding and I can assure you that by the time we are Patient for September and Patient for October; as the Lord lives by November 2020 we will be here together in Jesus Name – Amen.
- Now usually, the Convention in August – In the Friday of the Holy Ghost Service (HGS); we normally ask all those who are barren to come forward who has become Fruitful after the Convention for one (1) Year or two (2) Years and now they have their children.
We always ask them to come forward and bring their children.
The Almighty God in His Infinite Mercies has given me (Pastor E.A Adeboye) a very “Special Anointing” for making the barren Fruitful.
So, the People will come by the tens of thousands to Present their children to God.
It always serve as a Point of Contact to those Trusting God for the “Fruit of the Womb” so that when they come; they can see what God has done for others and they will be able to believe God for their own children too.
Now, because the Convention of this Year (2020) was Virtual; we couldn’t asked the People who has become Fruitful to bring their children.
But I want to help your Faith at the same time.
So, we are going to show you a Video Clip – Showing what happened in Year 2019 when we called those People forward.
We will see the numbers of children brought forward in the Year 2019.
And by the Special Grace of God, come Year 2021 at the Convention; you will be bringing your children forward soon – Amen.
So, I will ask you now to watch the Video Clip; after which we will continue with the Service.
God Bless You and Happy Viewing.
SHOWING OF THE VIDEO CLIP!
You have now seen the crowd of children brought forward.
And by the Special Grace of God that Year (2021); your own children too will be among them in Jesus Name – Amen.
Now, let us go on to the Message tonight – Genesis 30: 1-2 and 22-24.
- And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.
- And Jacob’s anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God’s stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?
- And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.
- And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath taken away my reproach:
- And she called his name Joseph; and said, The Lord shall add to me another son.
When we say: LET THERE BE LIGHT, Particularly in reference to child bearing – LET THERE BE LIGHT could mean different things to different People.
You can listen to the audio here: Let There Be Light 8 – Pastor E.A Adeboye
For Example:
- Let’s start with ABRAHAM AND SARAH, in Genesis 18:1-14.
To ABRAHAM AND SARAH, Let there be Light simply means: GOD, PLEASE PAY US A VISIT
And in the Name that is above every other names: All of you who are trusting God for the fruits of the womb, God will PAY YOU A VISIT TODAY – Amen.
I. Pay us a Visit oh God, and do the UNUSUAL.
… DO WHAT YOU NORMALLY WOULD NOT DO.
Because the Bible tells us that when God Paid Abraham and Sarah a Visit, they offered Him FOOD;
… And He agreed to EAT!
Now, God had said in Psalms 50:9-13.
He said: I don’t eat the food of man. He said if I am hungry I won’t tell you. If I need to eat;
I have the Cattle on a thousand hills; I have ALL the fowls of the Air; I have ALL the Wild Animals.
… If I need food, I don’t need to consult you.
But on that occasion, God did what He normally would not do.
Let there be Light – Abraham and Sarah said to God: Pay us a Visit, Do what You normally would NOT DO.
II. AND SPEAK TO US FACE TO FACE.
He had spoken to Abraham before in Genesis 12:1-3.
He had spoken to Abraham before, but all these times it has been in dreams, in visions of the night. Like in Genesis 15:1-6.
But now, they say: if You Pay us a Visit, at least then you can speak to us face to face.
I Thank God for the Testimony of the Young Man who Preached before me.
Last Year (2019) God Pay a Visit to his family face to face – directly, that by next year (2020) you will be singing: “Wonder so so, wonder so so.”
.. And today, he is singing that song!
I am Praying for everyone of you listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC; that today, God will SPEAK to you Face to FACE – Amen.
So, Abraham and Sarah said to God, please: PAY US A VISIT: Do the UNUSUAL, Speak to us FACE TO FACE.
III. And Please, TURN ALL THE PROPHECIES OF THE PAST TO A DECREE.
You had Promised us that we will be Fruitful. And there has been Prophecies upon Prophecies – our children would be like Stars.
Now, just turn ALL the Prophecies to a DECREE.
After all, in Genesis 1:3, You were not Prophesying to Light – You just decreed: “Let there be Light!”
After all it is written in Psalms 33:8-9 that once You SPEAK, it is DONE!
So Lord, no more Prophecies, just a DECREE.
And Lord, PAY US A VISIT: Change all the Prophecies to a DECREE;
IV. AND IGNORE OUR DOUBTS.
Because (you know the story very well) – When God spoke and said: By this time next year, Sarah shall have a Baby!
… Sarah DOUBTED and LAUGHED.
But God IGNORED her Doubt!
And we know that it is written: “The Just shall live by FAITH.”
God said it again and again and again in the Bible – Habakkuk 2:4, Romans 1:17, Galatians 3:11 and Hebrews 10:38 – “The Just shall live by FAITH.”
But the same God said in Isaiah 43:13, He said: When I decide to work, who can hinder ME?
I stand on this Altar tonight to issue a DECREE to EVERYONE trusting God for the fruit of the womb – Nine (9) Months from tonight or as you are reading now on the Label of DMC; your CHILDREN will begin to COME – Amen!
They (Abraham and Sarah) said: Let there be Light – PAY US A VISIT;
V. AND PROVE YOUR ALMIGHTINESS.
Because when Sarah LAUGHED, God said: Do you know who is talking to you? – Is anything too HARD for ME?
God said, I Prove to you that I Am the God of all flesh.
In Jeremiah 32:27, the Almighty God said: “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there ANY THING too hard for Me?”
If there is anyone of you listening to me today or reading now on the Label of DMC, who might have some doubts: Can these things be? Would God do my own? – In the Name of the One who is called the ALMIGHTY, I decree once again: Nine (9) Months from today, your children will begin to COME – Amen!
… And when the Almighty God granted their request
VI. HE CHANGED THE SORROW OF SARAH TO LAUGHTER.
Because she laughed that night and she had been laughing ever since then!
So wherever you are tonight, or reading now on the Label of DMC – because very soon, People will begin to LAUGH WITH you – Seeing that the Almighty God has PROVEN Himself MIGHTY on your behalf.
So I want you to write down your PRAYER POINT ONE (1) because you have to Pray all your Prater Points together.
Since you are not here in Camp, we cannot take it one by one.
Your PRAYER POINT NO. 1 would be: Father, Please, Let There Be Light – PAY MY FAMILY A VISIT.
- Now, Let there be Light could mean something different to ISAAC AND REBEKAH – Genesis 24:21-26.
What Isaac said to the Almighty God when he was crying to God (because his wife was also barren) could be:
I. FATHER, WHAT YOU DID FOR MY PARENTS, DO THE SAME FOR ME.
In other words, one (1) man met with a man, and they Produced me. If I was born, then let me give birth.
After all, if you can be Gracious to my father, there is no reason why You can’t be Gracious to me.
You said in Your Words in Ezekiel 18:4 – You said: The Soul of the father, as well as the Soul of the son; they are ALL YOURS.
… My father (Abraham) is yours, I am yours also!
And in any case, You Promised my Daddy (Abraham) in Genesis 12:1-3, that it is through his SEED that You are going to Bless the whole world – I am his SEED!
And every Christians listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC – the Bible says if you belong to Christ, you are of the SEED of Abraham.
So what God did for Abraham; The God who answered the Prayer of Abraham (even in old age) will ANSWER your Prayers tonight, in Jesus’ Name – Amen!
So, Isaac was saying to the Almighty God, You are the One who Promised in Genesis 22:15-17, when my father laid me on the Altar to make me a first (1st) Fruit Sacrifice to You.
You told my father: Oh, in Blessing I will Bless you. But You turned to me and said:
II. IN MULTIPLYING YOU WILL MULTIPLY ME.
… How can I be MULTIPLIED if I have no child?
The Almighty God listened to the cry of Isaac. And in response, He gave him the first (1st) set of Twins ever in Genesis 25:21-26.
Now, the Almighty God made a Promise in Isaiah 61:7. He promised to give you DOUBLE for your shame.
EVERYONE of you who calls me Daddy, in the Name that is above every other names, what God has done for me, He will do DOUBLE for you – Amen!
He has made me Fruitful, YOU WILL BE FRUITFUL – Amen!
PHYSICALLY, you will be FRUITFUL!
MATERIALLY, you will be FRUITFUL!
MARITALLY, you will be FRUITFUL!
SPIRITUALLY, you will be FRUITFUL.
Write down your PRAYER POINT NO. TWO (2): – And say Father; Let there be Light – GIVE ME DOUBLE FOR MY TROUBLE.
Let there be Light – even as you gave DOUBLE to Isaac, GIVE ME DOUBLE FOR MY TROUBLE.
- Now, Let there be Light to JACOB AND RACHAEL would mean something entirely DIFFERENT.
You see, when you read their story, you will discovered that in Genesis 29:15-31, something happened:
Jacob bargained with Laban to serve him for seven (7) years – so he could marry Rachael.
After seven (7) years, Laban played a trick on Jacob, and gave him Leah instead of Rachael.
When Jacob discovered, he said why have you done this?
Laban said: No Problem, no quarrel. You want Rachael? Yes! Serve another seven (7) years!
And so he served another seven (7) years, and got married to Rachael.
But because Rachael was the one that he loved from the beginning; Leah was an imposition on him – He loved Rachael, and didn’t care much for Leah.
And God looked down from Heaven and said: Alright, if you do it that way, I will make Leah FRUITFUL but I will SHUT the womb of Rachael.
So when (as the Text we read) Rachael discovered that she was not Producing children, and Leah was just bringing them forth like Rabbits; she CRIED unto Jacob and said: Either you give me a son or I will kill myself.
And the husband answered and said: Am I God?
So what happened then? What do you think was the Prayer of Rachael?
I believe her Prayer was: Lord, I am sorry, I have trusted men. They have failed me. I will TRUST YOU ALONE now!
You see, the Bible says in Jeremiah 17:5-8; the Bible makes it clear that: If you trust in man, you put yourself under a curse.
Oh, some of us have our trust in Doctors (God Bless them!) – Wonderful People! But Doctors are not the Creator, they are not the Almighty.
That is why some of you have been told: You can NEVER have a child.
But like the Testimony you heard tonight of the fellow whose Fallopian Tube was cut off, and the other one was blocked.
And the Doctors said: You can never have a child! And now she has four (4) children!
There is Someone who is Greater than every Doctor. And in the Mighty Name of that One: I am speaking to all of you who have Problems with your womb, Problems with your Fallopian Tubes: By this time next year, you will come and Testify; because the Almighty God WILL DO what no human being CAN DO – Amen!
In Psalms 121:1-2, David said: “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Almighty God, who made Heaven and Earth.”
From now on, take your eyes off men, FOCUS on the Almighty God. And the One who remembered Rachael.
Because the Bible says in Genesis 30:22-24 – “God Remembered Rachael.”
That same God will remember you today – Amen!
I just want to remind you (those of you who knows this story); and those of you who have not heard it before; it will help you!
I have told you the story of a woman who became Pregnant as a school girl..
Oh, Thank You Father! Thank You LORD.
PROPHESY: The Lord says there is someone listening to me right now or reading now on the Label of DMC – He wants me to tell you that after He has opened your womb, He would allow you to tell Him when you have had enough.
Thank You Almighty God!
Yes, I was telling you the story of a girl who became Pregnant as a school girl. And then tried to abort, and things went wrong.
By the time they took her to the Hospital, the Doctors said there is only one way to save her life – and they took out her womb.
But she went ahead, got married and was believing God for the fruits of the womb – Always going to the Pastor for Prayers.
So one (1) day the Pastor asked her: Everybody I Prayed for have conceived; why is your case so difficult?
Then she told the Pastor her story.
The Pastor said: Oh, you mean you have no womb, and you are asking me to Pray for the fruits of the womb?
The woman said, but it is you who taught us that: With God nothing shall be impossible.
Oh, okay!
From that day onwards, whenever the Pastor saw her coming, he would dodge.
One day she saw the Pastor dodging her and she decided: I won’t go to any Pastor for Prayers anymore – I will FOCUS ON GOD.
Everyone of you who will put your eyes on God TODAY, you will not be DISAPPOINTED – Amen!
That night she had a dream. And in that dream, she saw herself standing stark naked. She saw a huge man coming towards her with the skin of an animal in his hand.
She was too terrified to move; the man came and wrapped the skin of the animal round her waist, and disappeared!
She woke up sweating. But she also woke up menstruating.
By the time she was sharing her Testimony, she already had more than one (1) child.
The Almighty God who is no Respecter of Person; the Creator of the Heaven and Earth. Even if there is anything damaged in your Reproductive Systems, that God will give you a Brand New Part today in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
Even if there is anything damaged in your Reproductive Systems, that God will give you a BRAND NEW PART today, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
And then PRAYER POINT NO. THREE (3) therefore, would be: Father, Please, Let There Be Light, remember me today.
… Just as you remembered Rachael, remember me today.
- Now Let there be Light to MANOAH AND HIS WIFE means something entirely DIFFERENT.
… And you can read that Story in Judges 13:1-END.
They were barren, things were bad in the Country, and there was the need for a Champion to rescue the People from the hands of their enemies.
And so God paid the wife of Manoah a Visit and said: You will be the one who will bring forth the Champion.
And the husband was not there; so the woman ran to her husband and told him: An Angel appeared to me and told me so and so.
The man said: And you didn’t call me?
So together they cried to the Almighty God, and God sent the Angel the second (2nd) time and told Manoah himself: You are going to have a Champion for a son.
Let there be Light in the life of MANOAH and his WIFE means; God, you need A CHAMPION – Particularly in my Nation. And that Champion needs a Vessel to dwell in, so that he can come into the world.
After all, in Hebrews 10:5, when the Lord Jesus Christ was to come into the world, the Bible says it is written: “A Body Thou has Prepared for Me.
So Manoah and his wife would be saying to God therefore:
I. God You need a Champion; make us the Vessels that will Provide him with a body to come into the world.
So, I believe somebody over there listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC, would Probably say to the Almighty God today:
God, You need a Champion in the world right now, You need a Champion in my Nation; let my wife and I be the ones who will bring that Champion to life – Amen.
You see, many a times when a home is not Producing children, the tendency Particularly in our Part of the world, is to put the blame on the woman.
… Whereas it might be the husband who has the Problem.
*And so tonight, when it is time to Pray, don’t Pray that God will visit you – Woman alone. Pray that God would visit your husband also.
And husband, when you Pray, Pray that God will not just visit your wife; but He will visit you – the husband also.
Because, you will remember the story of one man who had a Problem. When the Doctors examined his sperm, they discovered that his own case was not a case of Low Sperm Count – His case was a case of ZERO Sperm count. His sperm was ordinary water. There was no seed in it at all.
If a man has Low Sperm Count, there are drugs that the Doctors could Prescribe that could build the count up!
In his own case, there was nothing to build up! – It was ZERO.
But the man came to Holy Ghost Service (years ago), and the Almighty God spoke and said that He was giving somebody spare Parts.
After the Holy Ghost Service, they went home. And he sat on his chair in his living room and fell asleep (on Saturday morning) – and had a Dream.
And according to his Testimony – In his dream, he saw me walking into his sitting room, smiling at him, waving at him. And then walking out.
He woke up, and just took it by Faith that God has Paid him a Visit.
The following year, he came to Testify, with his first (1st) Child.
I am Praying for everybody listening to me today, or reading now on the Label of DMC, whether the Problem is with the wife or with the husband; May the Almighty God visit BOTH OF YOU, and SOLVE the Problem tonight. So that by this time Next Year, you will be singing for Joy – Amen.
And so, your PRAYER POINT NO. FOUR (4) would be: Father, Let There Be Light and LET IT SHINE ON BOTH OF US – husband as well as wife.
Let the Light SHINE ON BOTH OF US – Whatever is wrong with husband, whatever is wrong with the wife, CORRECT BOTH.
… So that at the end if it, we will have cause to REJOICE – Amen.
And then, there was something these People did – this Manoah and his Wife.
When the Angel Visited them, and told them that that were going to have this Miracle Baby in Judges 13:15-19, they told the Angel;
II. You cannot go, we will Entertain you before you go. We will SHOW OUR APPRECIATIONS even before you go!
I am encouraging everyone of you listening to me today, or reading now on the Label of DMC; that you will enter a Covenant with the Almighty God that if He PAYS YOU A VISIT: That He will touch husband and wife. And when He has Performed His Miracle, you would SHOW HIM GRATITUDE.
And you will have something to THANK GOD for, in Jesus’ Name – Amen!
- Now, Let there be Light in the life of ELKANAH AND HANNAH means something entirely different.
Oh, Thank You Father!
PROPHESIES
- Now, the Lord is not talking to just those who are barren now. I think He is talking to someone VERY SPECIAL.
… I hope the fellow would understand?
But He said: because the Light would SHINE tonight, your Destiny that is considered dead and buried, WILL RESURRECT – Amen.
Thank You Father! Oh, Praise the LORD – Hallelujah!
- This one is my own (and DMC Family by extension); I want to say Amen to it before I tell those of you who are listening all over the world or reading now on the Label of DMC.
Now,, in the case of ELKANAH AND HANNAH (you know the story)!
Elkanah had two (2) wives – Peninnah and Hannah. Hannah was barren, the other one was bringing forth children like Rabbit.
… And she kept on Provoking Hannah sour.
So what do you think was the Prayer of Hannah?
What can we LEARN from the Story?
I believe that if we were to see Hannah face to face, and ask her: What is your opinion about all the things that happened?
I am sure that:
I. The first (1st) thing she would say is: I THANK GOD FOR THE PROVOCATION that came from the other woman.
Because if that woman had been kind, gentle, polite. Maybe Hannah would have settled down and said: Well, God does not want me to have children. So what is the need of struggling.
But because this woman kept on tormenting her, she refused to stay barren.
In the Name that is above other names, one day, you will THANK GOD for those who are mocking you because they Push you until you cried to God till you got your Breakthrough – Amen
… All things work together for Good.
*So, I want to encourage all those who are listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC, that the mockery of all these years – The People who have been saying: What are you doing? Particularly, relatives of your husband – who have been saying: what are you doing in our house? Just eating our food and growing fat. And not Producing children.
You are going to Thank God for them because unless you are PUSHED like this, you might not get to that stage where you say – God, I am not letting You go, unless YOU ANSWER ME.
I am sure Hannah must have said to God, Thank You for the Provocation;
II. But let this be my SET TIME.
You know the Bible says in Psalms 102:13: “Thou shalt arise, and have Mercy upon Zion: for the time to Favour her, yea, the Set Time, is come.”
I am Praying for someone that all the Provocations, all the Sufferings of the Past, would PUSH you to God tonight. So that YOUR SET TIME will be this VERY moment – Amen.
I think she (Hannah) Probably would say:
III. Of ALL the People who gathered at Shiloh that day, it was ON ME AND ME ALONE, THAT THE LIGHT SHONE.
Wherever you are, when it is time to Pray, you are going to cry to God to single you out for a VERY SPECIAL MIRACLE – Amen.
And then (you know the rest of the story) she was SINGLED OUT, out of the crowd.
The Man of God saw her as she was in great bitterness of Soul and thought that she was drunk. And when she explained to the Man of God: I am not drunk. If I am drunk, I am only drunk with sorrow.
And the Man of God said: Listen woman, God will grant your request.
The Bible says, from that day onward, she was never sad again.
What does that mean?
It means, according to 2 Chronicle 20:20:
V. She BELIEVED GOD and she became Established; she BELIEVED the Prophet of God and she Prospered.
I am encouraging all of you that are listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC: To BELIEVE my God – so that He can Establish you!
And Please (with all humility) I beg you, BELIEVE me, His son that He has sent to you today to be Prophet to you.
BELIEVE that word that is coming to you – That in the Name that is above every other names, before the end of this Month, there will be a SHOUT OF JOY in your family – Amen.
Thank You Father!
PROPHESIES
- The Lord says the fellow concerned with this one would understand.
He asked me to tell you: You will still Produce the Heir to the Throne.
… Who ever that fellow is, would understand!
- Ah! The Lord asked me to tell someone that: The Child that I am going to give you this time around, a day would come when everybody would look at him and say – Ha! This one is worth waiting for!
He is not going to give you an Ordinary child. He or she would be somebody that everyone would look at and say – No wonder the Parent had to wait; he has been very, very SPECIAL –
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Now, PRAYER POINT NO. FIVE (5): *You would say Father; Please Let There Be Light, SINGLE ME OUT FOR A BREAKTHROUG
- Now, what does Let There be Light mean in the lives of ZACHARIAH AND ELIZABETH?
… And you can read their story in Luke 1:1- END.
The Bible says, Zachariah was a High Priest of God. Elizabeth was a very righteous woman. The Bible says both of them were completely blameless.
They were living a Holy Life and YET, they were barren.
Oh, it could be very embarrassing for the Pastor who is Praying for others and they are becoming FRUITFUL; To himself be barren – It could be very embarrassing.
And I have Good News for all those Ministers who are in that category; Your reproach will be OVER tonight – Amen!
Because we found that Zachariah kept on serving God; there is no other option – Where else can he go? He was the High Priest.
And the two (2) of them (Zachariah and Elizabeth) had become old. But God paid them a Visit.
He visited Zachariah and Elizabeth and they gave birth to a very, very Special son – John the Baptist.
What can we learn from these two (2) as to the Meaning of Let there be Light?
I. Well, we could say: God you said in Your Word (Proverbs 13:12) that hope DELAYED can make the heart sick.
You see, because when the Angel of the Lord came and started talking to Zachariah: You are going to have a son.
The Man of God said: I Need a Sign.
… He had waited for a long time!
All of you who have been waiting for a long time, in the Name that is above every other names, your waiting is OVER – Amen!
But then, you could also learn from the case of Zachariah and Elizabeth, that the two (2) of them made up their mind;
II. Whatever happens, we will KEEP ON SERVING GOD.
Because when the Angel was going to speak to Zachariah, it was in the Temple – where he was Ministering.
… He was Ministering to God.
And I believe very firmly, everyone of us trusting God for the fruit of the womb, our determination must be rugged.
Don’t let anybody divert your attention somewhere else.
Don’t let anybody tell you: You think God can do this? How many times have you been attending Holy Ghost Service and Shiloh Hour?
How many times have you heard Prophecies from Pastor Adeboye that you are going to be FRUITFUL?
Let’s try something else!
In Job 13:15, he said: “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.”
I Promise you, God will not FAIL you – Amen!
And you know what?
At the end of the day, in Matthew 11:11 God gave them the BEST.
Because the Bible says; “Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist:”
I am believing God that tonight, every child that God will give to you would be in the class of the BEST – Amen.
So your PRAYER POINT NO. SIX (6) would be: Father, Please, Let There Be Light and because You have waited for LONG; GIVE ME THE BEST.
I don’t want just any child. I want the BEST. I want the kind that You Prophesied about tonight – That People would say: Hey, this one is worth waiting for.
So, let me conclude – so that you can have time to Pray.
PROPHESIES
- Oh, Thank You Father!
This time, God says He is talking to someone Special. And He asked me to tell you – I have decided to OPEN the Womb of your BUSINESS;
I will move you from Surviving to Prosperous; and then move you on to Flourishing – Amen.
… Please WRITE IT DOWN:
He is opening the womb of your BUSINESS: you are barely surviving now. He says very soon, you will be Prospering. And then He will MOVE you from Prospering to FLOURISHING.
- Ah! I like this one. Before you say Amen to this, think twice!
Because the Lord says: There is someone listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC:
He says, you are going to give birth three (3) times. And each time will be in MULTIPLE BIRTH.
Multiple birth means Twins, Triplet, etc.
He says a day would come, when you and your children want to go travel, you would need a bus.
… I think you need to think twice before you say Amen to that (Laughter!)
God wants to be EXTRA GENEROUS to this Particular woman.
Don’t be afraid, if He Provides the children, He will Provide the means to take care of them.
… Glory be to God!
- In conclusion, Let there be Light means: GOD CHASE AWAY the Darkness of BARENESS; CHASE AWAY the Darkness FRUITLESS EFFORT; CHASE AWAY the Darkness FAILURE.
Barrenness does not means the fruit of the womb – As in children are concerned alone.
A. If you are working hard, and there is nothing to show for it, that is a form of Barrenness.
B. If those who met you in the Office are Promoted ahead of you, that could be a form of barrenness.
C. If you are studying hard and you keep failing your exams, that could be barrenness.
Let there be Light simply means, CHASE AWAY DARKNESS of Barrenness of any form, whatsoever.
And so your PRAYER POINT NO. SEVEN (7) will simply be: Father, Please, Let There Be Light, and chase away The Darkness Of Bareness from my Life, from my Family, from my Ministry, from my Business.
Chase away every form of Barrenness in my life!
Now, in John 8:12; Jesus Christ said: “I am the Light of the world, anyone who will follow me will never walk in darkness.
MEANING WHAT?
If you are following Jesus, darkness should have No Place in your Life.
Because You are walking with the One who is the Light of the world; all around you – LIGHT SHOULD SHINE.
So, when those of us (who are already children of God) are Praying that Prayer Point No. 7; Let us Pray it with anger.
Tell Darkness; you can’t be near me. I belong to Jesus. And where Jesus us, LIGHT MUST REIGN SUPREME.
And so darkness, wherever you come from, you go back there!
Barrenness, you go back to Sender!
Failure, you go back to Sender!
Poverty, you go back to Sender!
I am walking with the LIGHT, darkness you have no place in my life.
But if you are not yet a child of God, if you have not yet come to the Light;
Because if you are not His child – There are only two (2) fathers. It is either you have JESUS as your father, is the devil is your father.
… And the other father is the Prince of Darkness.
ALTAR CALL
But if you make up your mind tonight or as you are reading now on the Label of DMC and say: I don’t want to be in darkness anymore!
I want to go to the One who says: ‘I Am the LIGHT of the world.”
If you say bye bye to the Prince of the Forces of Darkness, and you come to Jesus, He will receive you, He will save your Soul, and His Light will begin to Shine in your life.
So wherever you are, if you want to move out of darkness to LIGHT; if you want to surrender to Jesus Christ:
If you would Please bow your head wherever you may be and cry to the Lord Jesus Christ and ask Him to Please, save your Soul, give you a New Beginning.
So that you can now become a member of His Family – a member of the Family of LIGHT.
I will join my Faith with yours, I will Pray for you in a moment, before we begin to round up.
So, if you want to give your life to JESUS Christ, wherever you are; I can’t see you, but God can.
Bow your head, cry to the Almighty God and say: Please, save my Soul Oh Lord Jesus Christ. Receive me into the Family of God;
Because the Bible says, as many as receive Him, to them He gave Power to become the sons of God.
You can be received into the Family of LIGHT tonight.
Bow your head and talk to Him, and I will Pray for you in a moment.
Thank You Father! In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!
