OPENING PRAYER

Heavenly Father, we want to say Thank You!

The Alpha and the Omega, we want to say Thank You.

Thank You Father for making this Day a reality. We give You all the Glory and all the Praise, in the Name of Jesus!

Thank You Lord for this Covenant Church. Thank You Father for the Previous Holy Ghost Services.

Thank You Father for the Past Miracles, Signs and Wonders.

Thank You Father for the things You did in Previous Past! We give You all the Glory, in the Name of Jesus.

Father, we Thank You for our father-in-the-Lord, Daddy G.O. Thank You Lord for Eighty (80) Years of impact in the Body of Christ.

We say receive all our Praises in the Name of Jesus.

Father, today, we ask, even as we have come to hear Your Word, let Your Word do us Good! Let Your Word cause a Transformation in our Spirits.

That at the end, all the Glory and all the Honour will be ascribed to You.

I decrease and ask You to Increase in me.

Let the Words of my mouth and the Meditations of my heart be acceptable before You.

Touch my tongue with Your fire and I will speak only Your Counsel that Jesus alone will be Glorified at the end.

Thank You Father for hearing us. Receive all our Praises.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen and Amen!

Hallelujah to Jesus – Hallelujah!

I want to use this Platform to appreciate the Name of the Lord for election of Grace and Mercy that has made it Possible for me to be here.

I say may the Name of the Lord be Praised for ever, in the Mighty Name of Jesus.

I also want to appreciate my father-in-the-Lord, Daddy G.O and our Mother in Israel.

I Pray that God will continue to bless them and move them from Glory to Glory, in the Name of Jesus.

I can see the Governing Council, all my fathers and my mother’s, and all my elder brothers and sisters in the House – God bless you all, in Jesus’ Mighty Name – Amen and Amen!

Can we turn our Bibles to the Book of Isaiah 12:2-3.

The Bible says:

2 Behold, God is my Salvation; I will Trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord Jehovah is my Strength and my Song; He also is become my Salvation.

3 Therefore with Joy shall ye draw water out of the Wells of Salvation.

I will like to speak on the Subject: THE JOY OF THE LORD.

From our Pilot Bible Text (Isaiah 12:3) the Bible says – Therefore …

The word “therefore” is a Mathematical term with consequential Significance.

In other words, the resultant effect of our Redemption in Christ is “Wells of Salvation”.

Surely in Christ, we were not created empty, but loaded;

In Christ, we are not a biological accident.

In Christ, we are not a People without a Mandate.

In Christ, we are too connected to be Limited.

We are too ‘Firelised” to be “Fantalised”.

In Christ, we are too Relevant to be Ignored.

We are too Numbered to be Silenced.

In Christ, we are the Joy of the world!

We have this Treasure in Earthen Vessels, that the Excellence of the Power may be of God and not of us. We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are Perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed. (2 Corintians 4:7-8)

Christ in us, the Hope of Glory (Colossians 1:27)

This is our Salvation reality in Christ.

Beloved, it is time to draw from our Redemption Wells: To facilitate our Healing, to facilitate our Restoration, to facilitate our Miracle and Breakthrough. Our Abundance and Prosperity.

Tonight, we draw from God again – Amen.

Somebody say: My Father, tonight I draw from the Wells of Salvation!

So shall it be in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

From our Pilot Bible Text (in Verse 3); it says Wells of Salvation.

If you notice, “WELLS” is in Plural.

Meaning that in Christ, there is a Supernatural Supply to Service the Four (4) Cardinal demands of Mankind – Which are:

1. MINISTRY: It refers to the Church.
2. MARRIAGE: Refers to Family.
3. MONEY: Which refers to Wealth.
4. MEDICATION: Which refers to our Health.

But there are many Church People with clear Identity of Salvation; without any evidence of Restoration.

But this Night or as you read now on the Label of DMC; I declare, by the Mandate of our father-in-the-Lord, Daddy G.O, and I Decree that will Change, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

… That is Changing, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

Friends, our Pilot Bible Text says – With Joy shall you draw from the Wells of Salvation.

Meaning:

• Provision is available. But with Joy shall you draw!
• Restoration is available. But with Joy shall you draw!
• Immunity is available. But with Joy shall you draw!
• Prosperity is available. But with Joy shall you draw!
• Fruitfulness is available. But with Joy shall you draw!
• Miracles are available. But with Joy shall you draw!

The Scripture says – With Joy shall you draw. Because Joy is a Fetcher.

The same way you go to the river and you will need a bailer to fetch the water. That is the same way Joy is a Fetcher.

Tonight I Decree, that you are fetching from the River of Life – A more than enough Breakthrough (Amen).

Tonight I Decree, that you are Fetching from the River of Life – a more than enough Blessing – Amen

A more than enough Miracle – Amen.

Let me hear Somebody say a loud Amen – AMEN!!!

The Bible says, with Joy shall you draw; and Joy is a Fetcher.

SO WHAT CAN THE JOY OF THE LORD FETCH?

1. It can fetch Supernatural Strength.

Nehemiah 8:10, the C Part says – For the Joy of the Lord is my Strength.

Anywhere Joy is short of Supply, Strength will also be short in Supply.

Strength is needed in the Four (4) Cardinal Demands of Mankind.

That is why Proverbs 24:10 says – If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy Strength is Small.

… So Strength is Small because Joy is low.

Our father-in-the-Lord, Daddy G.O, is an evidential Proof that Supernatural Strength is a Possibility.

Eighty (80) Years Old and we still feel his impact;

Eighty (80) Years Old and the Kingdom Exploits are visible;

Eighty (80) Years Old and his Passion for Soul Winning is Contagious.

Why? – Because the Joy of the Lord is his Strength.

Today we Decree and Declare that same Grace, that same God of Daddy G.O will Strengthen every areas of our lives, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

… What can Joy Fetch?

2. It can fetch Supernatural Answers.

In 1 Samuel 1:18-19, what Hannah had been waiting for, through the Joy of the Lord, she fetched her answers.

So Joy is a Catalyst needed in the reaction of your Life to accelerate Answers.

There are Reactions that are taking Place right now in Somebody’s Ministry, in Somebody’s Family, in Somebody’s Wealth, in Somebody’s Health; but by the Joy of the Lord, receive Answers in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

The louder your Amen, the quicker the Answers – AMEN.

3. Joy can fetch Supernatural Power.

Romans 14:17 says – For the Kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but Righteousness, and Peace, and Joy in the Holy Ghost.

The Presence of Joy is the Presence of the Holy Ghost; and the Presence of the Holy Ghost is the Presence of Power.

In Acts 16:25-26, the Bible says, in affliction, Paul and Silas rejoiced. They were Joyful. And suddenly and immediately, Power manifested.

Thst devil that cannot stop your Joy, cannot limit the Power of God – Amen.

Thank God for the Eighty (80) Hours of Messiah Marathon Praise that just ended few hours ago. It took Place so that the atmosphere can be activated for the Power of the Holy Ghost.

So Somebody get ready tonight; anytime my father-in-the-Lord Daddy G.O mounts this Altar there will be Great Manifestations of Power in your Life, Power in your Ministry, Power in your Business.

And you will be a Partaker, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

Somebody put your hand on your Chest and say: I will be a Partaker of of the Manifestation of God’s Power – Amen.

I will be a Partaker of of the Manifestation of God’s Power, in Jesus’ Mighty Name – Amen.

God bless you! You may take your seat.

4. Joy can fetch Supernatural Victory.

In 2 Chronicles 20:20-22, the Bible says four (4) Nations came against one (1) Nation. But through Joy they were able to overcome.

It goes a long way to tell us, that Joy is a Spiritual Weapon. It can disengage and dislodge every assault of the enemy.

Whenever there is Praise, there is a Sound of Joy.

And whenever there is a Sound of Joy, there is a release of confusion in the Camp of the enemy.

So, from whatever Continent of the world you represent – Whether Africa, Europe, Asia, North America, South, Australia, whether Antarctica; hear ye the Word of the Lord that is emerging from the Redemption Camp to the world – The Shouting Generation is emerging!

Wherever you are, Somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!!!

• We release a Sound of Victory into our Family;
• We release a Sound of Victory into the Political sector of the Nation we Represent.
• We release a Sound of Victory into Government Sectors of the Nation we Represent.
• In the Religion Sector of the Nation that we Represent.
• In the Educational Sector of the Nation that we Represent.
• Into the Media and Entertainment Sectors of the Nation that we Represent.

Everybody, wherever you are or reading this Message now on the Label of DMC, lift up your voice and shout Jesus – JESUS!!!

The Bible says: That at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in Heaven, and things in Earth, and things Under the Earth (Philippians 2:10)

Tonight, from the Redemption Camp to the Nations of the world, we release confusion into the Camp of the enemy – Amen.

And so shall it be, in Jesus’ Name – AMEN.

HOW DO WE KEEP THE JOY?

1. Holiness must be your Lifestyle.

Hebrews 1:9 says – Thou hast loved Righteousness, and hated Iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the Oil of Gladness above thy Fellows.

Friends, Spiritually is not equal to Religiousity.

Righteousness is the Command that makes the Oil of Gladness, the Oil of Joy to keep flowing.

If you are living in sin, sin punctures our Joy; Sin kills our Joy.

Tonight, make up your Mind – From today, I will live a Life of Holiness, I will live a Righteous Life.

When I leave Church and go into the world, go to my work Place, I will live in Righteousness.

Make up your Mind!

2. You must be a Word Addict.

Jeremiah 15:16 says: Thy Words were found, and I did eat them; and thy Word was unto me the Joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy Name, O Lord God of Hosts.

So the more Word you have, the more Joy you have – More word Equals to more Joy.

From today say: I make up my Mind, in the Name of Jesus, to be a Word Addict – Amen.

3. You must be an Active Soul Winner.

Luke 10:17 says: And the seventy returned again with Joy.

… Be an Active Soul winner!

4. You must Find God.

Psalms 16:11 says: Thou wilt shew me the Path of Life: in thy Presence is Fullness of Joy.

When you find God, you find Joy.

… Our last Speaker told us, that the only Source of Joy is JESUS.

So when you find Jesus, you find Joy.

How do I find God? – By surrendering your Life to Him.

Friends, I encourage you – When my father-in-the-Lord, Daddy G.O come to Call for those who want to surrender their lives to Christ, don’t hesitate to come out.

Do not allow the devil keep you back.

Make up your mind “as our father-in-the-Lord comes, I will give my Life to Christ.”

And today your Story will Change, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Amen.

Can you rise to your feet this evening and say: My Father, my Father, tonight, like never before, in all areas of my life, cause my Joy to be Full.

In all areas of my Life, cause my Joy to be Full – In Ministry, in my Family, in my Health, cause my Joy to be Full Lord

Lift up your voice and Pray that Prayer.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

CLOSING PRAYER

Father, we Thank You!

Thank You for the rain of answers.

Thank You Father, for this is the Confidence that we have that when we call upon You, You will answer us.

Thank You for Your Word that is abiding.

We ask that this Word will bear Fruits in us.

That at the end, each and everyone of us would be conformed to the Character of Christ. And Jesus alone will be glorified.

Take all the Glory, take all the Honour!

In Jesus’ Mighty Name the Church of God Prays – Amen!

Let Somebody shout a loud HALLELUJAH – HALLELUJAH!!!!
