And everybody will say: Amen!
Let everybody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
Please move around: Shake hands with People and say: Congratulations!
God Bless You – You can have your seat.
I am so excited to be here today.
And I want to Thank God for what He has done in our midst.
This is a “Big Project” and Audacious – This is a Project of Faith and it is a “Beautiful-Work-Of-Art”.
I want to Thank God for your Pastor (DMC NOTES: Pastor and Pastor (Mrs) Victor Olorunmodimu, PICP Kaduna Province 4) and for his Team who has worked on this Particular Place to make sure that we have a “Beautiful Edifice” to Dedicate today in the Name of Jesus Christ!
I also want to use this Opportunity to Thank God for the whole Region (DMC NOTES: RCCG Region 30); because since this Particular Place became a Region, we have seen Progress upon Progress.
And as the Lord has done it today, we also have our Pioneer Pastor here with us today in this Particular Service (DMC NOTES: The Pioneer Pastor of RCCG Revelation Tower is: Pastor Timothy Olaniyan – Formerly PICP, Kaduna Province 2, 2011 to 2017 (Where Kaduna 4 was carved out from, and Currently PICP LP 12 and APICR 36) – You are Welcome and God Bless You Mightily.
We thank God for the Pioneer Regional Pastor of Region 30 (DMC NOTES: Pastor Dele Olowookere) and we Thank God for the Regional Pastor who is here now (DMC NOTES: Pastor Deji Afuye, PICR Region 30).
We appreciate God on your behalf, for the work you People are doing. And the Almighty God will continue to help you in the Name of Jesus Christ – Amen!
But just as the Pastor-In-Charge of your Region, PICR – Pastor Deji Afuye has mentioned; you have a Challenge before you – It is one thing to build a “Big Church” like this, it is another thing to fill it!
… And you must fill this Place.
And we are aware that The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has just Launched Vision 2032 – If you follow that Vision Strictly and you work with that Particular Vision, within the next one year; you will be thinking of Expansion because this Place will be filled up very soon.
As you have worked with all your Hearts; as you have made Money available; I want you to make sure that you Pray – The Almighty God, the One Who always add to the Church will add to your Church to fill this Place – Amen!
And not only fill this Place; that very soon, you won’t be having one Service but you will be having Multiple Services – Amen!
… And the Almighty God will help you – Amen!
I’m speaking from: Exodus 25: 17-22:
- And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
- And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
- And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
- And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.
- And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
- And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
Basically, the Church Building is a Place of Meeting between God and Mankind.
Like I have just told the People in RCCG Kaduna Province 1 – You must Honour the Presence of God.
Everytime you entered into the Sanctuary, you must know that God is there!
And because He is here, that is the reason why He answers Prayers!
But for God to come down and meet with Human Beings, it must be on the “Basis of Mercy”!
That is why God Specifically told Moses in the Bible Text that we read that he must install the “Mercy Seat” on top of the Altar.
So, I want you to know that this Particular House (DMC NOTES: RCCG Revelation Tower) has become the “House of Mercy”!
That at every Point in Time, when you come into this Place; you meet with the Almighty God on the “Basis of Mercy” and He will revealed Himself to you.
WHY IS IT THAT MERCY IS IMPORTANT?
- In Genesis 39: 20-23; we found the Importance of Mercy in the Life of Joseph.
Joseph was thrown into Prison for an offence that he did not commit.
And when he got to the Prison, Mercy Procurred for him Favour – Even though they lied against him, even though the Jailers could have treated him badly: Oh, you are the one who wanted to Sleep with the wife of your Master. You Jews Slave!
They should have treated him very badly.
And in those days, Prisons are Places of Death because there was no Human Rights and they could do anything to a Prisoner.
But Mercy went ahead of Joseph.
Just like the Passage that I mentioned to us – Verse 21 (Genesis 39:21) says:
But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him Mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the Keeper of the Prison.
May the Lord show you Mercy today – Amen!
May the Mercy of God Procure Favour for you in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Because of Mercy, God turned the Place of Injustice and Inhumanity to Place of Favour for Joseph.
Even though He was thrown to Jail, because they have lied against him but the Almighty God upturned that Particular Judgement and he met with Favour in that Place.
God made Joseph who should be oppressed in the Place of Judgement to become a Deliverer because the Jailer handed over the Place to him.
The Bible told us that the Man was not even looking at what he was doing – Whatever he does, it was Joseph doing it.
He became a Deliverer in that Particular Place and he began to fulfill his Destiny – He became a Channel of Blessing unto the Chief Butler and the Chief Baker; the People that were thrown into Jail with him.
Mercy can Upturned Judgement against you – That is why everytime you go to the Place of Prayer; you go on the “Basis of Mercy”!
That is why even “The Seat of God” is called “The Mercy Seat”.
- You will also see the Mercy in the Life of another Person called Nehemiah.
Nehemiah Specifically asked for Mercy so that he can rebuild the “Broken Jerusalem”.
In Nehemiah 1:5 – And said, I beseech thee, O LORD God of Heaven, the great and terrible God, that keepeth Covenant and Mercy for them that love him and observe his Commandments:
… He cried to God, He asked for Mercy so that God will grant him Favour before the People.
He began to Pray, he began to Fast – He knew that without His Mercy, all his Prayers and Fasting will amount to Nothing.
So in Verse 11 (Nehemiah 1:11); while he was Praying; he asked God in Specific Terms – He said: O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the Prayer of thy Servant, and to the Prayer of thy Servants, who desire to fear thy Name: and Prosper, I Pray thee, thy Servant this day, and grant him Mercy in the sight of this man. For I was the King’s Cupbearer.
I Pray for you that as you go to our Places of work in the coming week; you will see the Hand of God as He shows you Mercy – Amen!
Those who has resisted you before, on their own accord, without you asking for it; they will rise and they will help you in the Name of Jesus Christ – Amen!
So, he (Nehemiah) cried to God – Grant me Mercy!
Even though He was a Chief Butler of the King, the closest Slave to the King as it were and he must have been a Man who was well Trusted.
He should have been bold enough to go to the King and say: Oh King, Please I want to go and rebuild Jerusalem – The Place of my father’s Sepulchre, but he knew that will be dangerous.
Without Mercy on Assignment what could look so Simple, it might become very dangerous.
But I am Praying for you today that you will have Mercy – Amen!
After He has Prayed through, the King was the one himself who noticed, who asked him – Nehemiah, what is wrong with you? I could see that you are not happy. Something is wrong. Tell me exactly what it is.
And he told the King what he wanted and everything that he asked the King, the King gave it to him.
All the Problems that you think are “Too Big”; with God, they are very Simple – Most especially when He has decided to show you Mercy – Amen!
Because He (God) showed Mercy to Nehemiah; everything that Nehemiah asked the King, the King gave it to him!
Because this Place (DMC NOTES: RCCG Revelation Tower) has become “House of Mercy” and you can come in at any Particular Point in Time to Pray!
And whenever you come here to Pray, God will answer you – Amen!
You remembered the Story our father-in-the-Lord told us – Of Someone who was Sick Abroad. She suffered a Stroke and the Doctors had done all they could do there in USA and they told the children that all that we could do, that is what we have done for your mother and Nothing more.
The Old woman said: Take me back to Nigeria.
The children told her – When People are Sick in Nigeria, they will come Abroad to seek for Medical Help. But you are Abroad and you are asking us to take you back to Nigeria.
The woman said you don’t understand – The Doctors had tried all they could do. Let me go to my Doctor.
And the woman got back to Nigeria and said that they should take her to the Campground.
They said: Mama, there is no Service today. She said, who told you that I am going to meet the Pastor? I am going to meet God Himself.
And the woman was taken to the Auditorium and she said that they should take her to one of the Pillars.
And when she touched the Pillar, the Power of the Living God flowed into her and she walked herself out of the Place.
God is here – DMC NOTES: RCCG Revelation Tower; and if you come here to Pray; don’t come because you want to see a Pastor or to see a Minister but because God is here!
Anytime you come to Pray in the “Basis of Mercy”; He will answer you!
That is why we are going to Pray this Evening.
I. Please Pray the Prayers with all your Hearts.
II. Pray as Someone who Understands what “Praying Through” means.
III. I want you to cry to God with all your Hearts as Hannah cried to God in Shiloh until Prophet Eli took notice that something is bothering her Mind.
And she cried to God and the Man of God said: That which you have asked; the Lord will do it for you.
… And the Lord did it for her!
That is how I want you to Pray today!
