Father Almighty; we want to say Thank You from the bottom of our heart.

Thank You for what You did on Thursday (4th of March); Thank You for what You did Yesterday Night (Friday, 5th of March); Thank You Lord God Almighty that we can now round this thing up as we dine with You.

Thank You! Thank You!! Thank You!!!

Please accept our Thanks in Jesus’ Name.

As we come forward to dine with You Lord God Almighty; we Pray that in Your Own Miraculous Way; You will visit us afresh and You will Pour Fresh Oil on us again and again – So that at the end of the day; Your Name alone will be Glorified.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!

The Theme remains the same: GOD BLESS YOU – PART 3 (I WILL LIFT UP MY EYES)

But the Bible Text for today is: 1 Kings 19:4-8:

4. But he (Elijah) himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a Juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.

5 And as he lay and slept under a Juniper tree, behold, then an Angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.

6 And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.

7 And the Angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.

8 And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the Strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.

May I decree that the Strength that you are going to receive tonight will Last until you see God in Glory – Amen!

Well you know the Story very well!

Elijah Story started from 1 Kings 17:1 – And those of you who has been following us on Sundays, you know that we doing a Series on him – “GOING HIGHER”.

DMC NOTES: We can get to access the Ongoing Series on: GOING HIGHER – Parts 1 to 10 as at date on the Website of DMC – www.discoverymediacrew.com.

He just came into the Scene out of no where – Elijah the Tishbite! They didn’t even mentioned his father’s name. The next thing we saw is that he was already Preaching in the Palace.

And then the Lord told him to go and hide – He went to hide at the Brook of Cherith for almost a Year alone; spending time only with Ravens who came twice a day to Pay him a visit and bringing him food.

He was drinking from the Brook and then the Brook dried up and God said: Alright, from here move to Zarepheth and go and stay with a Widow.

He went, he stood there, Miracles happened there and then God said: Go and show yourself to King Ahab who had been looking for you for three and half Years.

He went, he showed himself; Put his Life at risk and then there was a competition on Mount Carmel. He called on Fire and Fire fell and then he Prayed and rain fell.

He came down to Jezreel and found Jezebel waiting for him. And Jezebel said: Hello Elijah, I have heard what you did to my Prophets – By tomorrow your head will be gone. I’m going to make sure that you join those Prophets by tomorrow.

So, Elijah ran and he kept on running; got to a Stage that he left his Servant behind and said: You are not the one they are looking for. I’m the one and so you go your Way.

And then, he got to where we read now – He got to a Juniper tree that has some Shade and decided to rest. He couldn’t run anymore, he was tired, vagued out!

Then he sat down there and then he was at the end of his Rope as it were!

But even at his end of his Rope, he still lifted up his eyes – He lifts up his eyes to the Helper of the Helpless; to the Hope of the Hopeless and Complained: Oh God, the Almighty One, the All Sufficient God – I have obeyed you to the Lettered. Everything you asked me to do; I have done:

1. You asked me to go and hide by the Brook alone with Birds – I obeyed You.
2. You asked me to go and hide in a Widow’s House; I obeyed You. I have no reputation anyway to worry about afterall I’m just “The Tishbite”.
3. You asked me to go and show myself to the one who has been looking for my head for three and half Years; I obeyed You.
4. You asked me to Challenge all the Idols of Baal – Four Hundred and Fifty of them; I stood alone against them; I risked my Life because You asked me. I obeyed You.
5. I Prayed that You should send down Fire; You Proved Yourself, You answered by Fire – Thank You.
6. I Prayed for Rain, Rain fell – Thank You.

I thought that I had a Revival because the whole Nation fell on their faces saying: You are our God!

But now, look at me? I am a Fugitive running for my Life!

You know what God? Let us end this drama – Take me Home!

I’m only making One (1) Request: I don’t want to die by the hands of Jezebel – That’s all. Thank You

And he was so tired after that interesting Prayer that he fell asleep. He forgot about the fellow who was chasing him.

You know; each time that I read that story; I always smile – It was an Angel who woke him up. It could have been one of the Soldiers of Jezebel.

My Brother and Sister; my sons and daughters; I want to encourage you:

1. No matter how Low you are; if you Lift Up your eyes to the Almighty God, He will reach out to you.
2. No matter how Deep you are in Hopelessness according to Deuteronomy 33:27 – The Bible made it clear: Underneath are the Everlasting Arms.

You can’t go Lower than the Arms of the Almighty God. His Arms are waiting to Pick you Up and begin to Lift you Up.

The Almighty God reached out to this boy who was complaining.

Humanly speaking, he has every reason(s) to complain and He gave him sleep.

The Bible says: He gives His Beloveth Sleep.

No mater how Low you are now; God still loves you!

And may I decree in the Name that is above every other names: From now on; no more Sleepless Nights for you – Amen!

The Everlasting Arms are there below you to Pick you – He gave His Beloveth Sleep!

In Acts 12: 5-11; Peter was going to be killed (He was in Prison) the following day; yet he slept so soundly that the Angel that came to rescue him had to smite him to wake him up.

That kind of Sleep is “Deep Sleep” you know.

Occasionally you sleep and when you wake up, you don’t even know where you are. You will try to figure out where I am.

That kind of “Deep Sleep” may you begin to enjoy it from now – Amen.

God still reach out to this boy who said: I think I should die and He said: Let’s give you food.

You know God realised that in running down from Mount Carmel to Jezreel; this boy has not eaten. By the time he arrived, there was no food. He had no time to eat before Jezebel said: I’m coming for you.

… So, He gave him food.

He fed the Hungry – Isaiah 55:1 says: Are you hungry? Come, I have food for you that you will get without money.

He gave him water to drink because he was aware that this boy was thirsty.

And in John 7: 37-39; the Almighty God said: Are you thirsty? Come and Drink.

Beloveth, when God feeds you as He is about to do tonight; it takes care of all your Needs:

1. Physical Needs.

Because this Man was tired, he was hungry, he was thirsty; God took care of his Physical Needs.

In 1 Peter 2:24; the Bible makes it clear: By His Stripes, by the Bread we are going to break; you were already Healed. Not that you are going to be Healed, you were Healed!

All you need to do is to Pick it Up.

2. When God feeds you; it takes care of your Mental Needs.

This Man was worried and yet God gave him such a “Deep Sleep” that he had to be woken up twice.

1 Peter 5:7 says: Cast your Burdens upon Him, He cares for you!

“Jehovah El-Shaddai” cares for you; the “I am that I am”; He is the Burden Bearer – He cares for you!

He takes care of your Mental Needs!

Remember He said: When you are taking the Holy Communion; He said do this in Remembrance of Me

Do you know the meaning of that?

It means this Meal will take care of your Memory Problems – Amen.

You will be able to remember clearly!

I. So, are you suffering from “Memory Lapses”? – It ends today (Amen).

II. Are you a Student that you have been failing exams; from tonight, no more Failure – Amen.

… Because He takes care of your Mental Needs!

3. And He takes care of your Spiritual Needs.

In John 21: 1-17; you find one of the most interesting Stories in the Bible.

After Peter denied the Lord and wept bitterly – You know the Story.

And then the Lord rose and then Peter felt: Well I have missed it anyway. So I might as well go back to the Fishing.

The Bible said that Night he caught nothing. And when the Lord appeared to him as they came to the Land; He said to them: Come and Eat. He had Prepared food even before they came.

And do you know that when they ate that food, that was when the Lord spoke to Peter: Your Ministry is about to start now – Feed my Lamb, feed my Sheep.

When the Lord feeds us; it takes care of our Spiritual Needs!

Have you been failing God in your Ministry – Hey, a New Beginning is starting now – Amen

When He feeds you, He gives you the Power to Press On – To Press On till you get to the Vineyard!

He said: Hey, Eat again because the Journey is still far.

There are some of you who thinks that maybe by now; you are nearing the End of your Ministry – No, No, No!

Few weeks ago; some of my children are rejoicing with me – Thanking God that I have been Forty Years as The Redeemed Christian Church God (RCCG) General Overseer.

Thank You very much.

What do you think will happen now? – Life begins at Forty (40)!

In Philippians 3: 12-14; Paul says: I have not yet attained but I’m Pressing on.

And I’m saying this one only for my children (For your ears only) – My daddy has Promised me that I will operate in a Level of Anointing that you have never seen before – Amen.

So, as we come to the Table tonight; we want to Lift our eyes to Him – The One who can go as Low as you are and from tonight begin to Lift you up – Up and Up until you see Him in Glory.

Because when Elijah finished the Meal; the Bible said that he went in the Strength of that Meal until he got to Horeb – The Mountain if God.

… Until he arrived at the Place where he can begin again.

So, we are about to come to the Table of the Lord. But Please like I have said again and again; the Holy Communion is not an “Ordinary Meal”. It is not for those who are not Born Again. It is not something that you take casually – It is “Extremely Powerfully”.

So, if you are not a child of God; Please don’t take the Holy Communion.

The Bible records for us that if you take this Meal Unworthily. It can kill you.

It says if you eat this Meal Unworthily, you may die.

ALTAR CALL

So, if you are not sure of your Salvation; Please give your Life to Jesus Christ now and then you will be welcome to the Table of the Lord.

So, if you want to give your Life to Jesus Christ, Please don’t delay – Come to Jesus Christ now.

And I will give you two (2) Minutes that you will cry to the Almighty God and ask Him to save your Soul.

If you are in a Church Settings, Please go to the Altar.

If you are in your home; cry to the Almighty God wherever you are even as you read now on the Label of DMC and ask Him to save your Soul.

And those of you who are already Born Again; Please let us intercede for the Newcomers – For those who are just surrendering their lives to Jesus Christ now and say: Lord, Please have Mercy on these Your Children, save their Souls, restore backsliders and let them become Children of the Living God so that they can come to Your Table worthily.

Oh, Thank You Father, Glory be to Your Holy Name.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

PRAYER FOR SALVATION

My Father and my God, the All Sufficient God; we Thank You once again for Your Words.

And I’m committing all those who are submitting their lives to You today into Your Hands – Wherever they may be Lord; Please receive them, have Mercy on them, save their Souls, let Your Blood wash away their sins, restore every backsliders and count them worthy to dine with you.

And I Pray that they will serve You forever.

And for the rest of us; I Pray Lord that as we approach the Table; anything that may Stand between us and the Miracles embedded in this Particular Service, Please Lord release us from it in Jesus Name.

Thank Almighty God. For in Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!

Now, all of you who now has just given your Life to Jesus Christ; wherever you are all over the world or as you read now on the Label of DMC; Please get in contact with me so that I will continue to Pray for you and then look for a Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) near you – They are everywhere near you. So, go to the Pastor there.

And if you don’t know; if you contact me, we will give you an Address of where you could get them and they will teach you what to do next.

God Bless You as we begin to approach the Table of the Lord.

ADMINISTRATION OF THE HOLY COMMUNION

When I bless the Bread and the Wine here at the Redemption Camp; I’m using the Elements as a Point of Contact for all the Elements that you will use all over the world.

And our God is everywhere at all times – So, the Blessings here is going to extend to every Elements anywhere in the world.

When you take the Bread tonight; your Prayer will be that: Everything causing you concern, anything that you are worried about will disappear tonight.

That anything that could cause you sleepless nights, any kind of worries whatever; that as you take the Bread tonight, all of such things will vanish Permanently.

When we come to drink the Wine, I will tell you how to Pray.

The Lord Jesus Christ the very Night in which He was betrayed, took Bread and when He had given Thanks; He broke it and said: Take, Eat; this is My Body broken for you. Do this in Remembrance of Me. In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit – Amen.

Now, you begin to eat and Pray as directed.

When you drink the Wine tonight; you are going to cry to God for Strength to last you for the rest of the Journey.

You are going to say: Father, I’m Lifting Up my eyes to you tonight as I drink the wine; give me Strength that will last me for the rest of my Journey to Heaven.

After the same manner, He took the cup, when He has Sup saying: This Cup is My Blood of the New Testament shed for you. Please do ye as oft as you drink it in Remembrance of Me. In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit – Amen.

Thank You Jesus.

In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
