Ancient of Days, the same God Yesterday, the same God Today, the same God Tomorrow. 

The Unchangeable Changer, the Holy One of Israel, the Almighty God. Glory be to Your Holy Name!

We Thank You for all the Miracles You have done in the Past; and we Thank You, Particularly for the ones You will do today. Please, accept our Thanks, in Jesus’ Name.

My Lord and my Saviour, no matter how brief Your Word is going to be today: let it bring Miracles to Your Children.

Let Your Word save Souls today.

Let it Heal Your Children today.

And let it set the Captives Free today.

Oh LORD, bless Your Children, bless their families, bless Rivers State, bless Nigeria.

Let Everybody here, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC, go home today with at least a Testimony.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Let Somebody shout Hallelujah- Hallelujah.

Shake hands with one (1) or two (2) People and tell them: My Miracle will be bigger than yours, you know!

And then, you may Please be seated.

Oh! Thank you Daddy.

The Lord asked me to tell Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

*He said, your Level will Change twice this Year (2024) – Amen.*

Psalms 75:6-7

6 For Promotion cometh neither from the East, nor from the West, nor from the South. 

7 But God is the Judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

*PROMOTED FOR A PURPOSE*

… That’s our Topic.

We will try to Define our Terms and then consider one (1) or two (2) Specific Cases.

PROMOTED: To be Promoted means to be lifted up from one level to another by Someone who has Authority (That’s important) to do so.

Glory be to God!

The Lord asked me to tell Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

*He said, before the end of this Year (2024), your Income Per Month will be more than your Income Per Year – Amen.*

*To be Promoted, has to be done by Someone who has Authority to do so.*

I mean for Example, supposed you are a Cashier in your Office; you get to work one day and the Cleaner says, “Good morning Sir, you are hereby Promoted to the Position of an Accountant.”

… Himself a Cleaner in the office – You know he is joking.

But the Bible says there is a God who can see to it that you are Promoted – And for a Purpose.

*For someone here this Morning, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC – Beginning from this moment, your Journey would be Upwards – Amen.*

PURPOSE: This simply means the reason behind the action. 

Why have you done this? What is the reason behind it? 

For Example, in Revelation 4:11, the Bible says you were created for His Pleasure. 

Everything He does has only one Purpose – To make God Pleased.

*I decree to somebody here today, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC, in the Name that’s above every other name, the rest of your Life will Please God – Amen.*

*SOME SPECIFIC CASES*

Now, let’s take some Specific Cases:

1. *When someone is sick and he or she is Healed Miraculously – That’s Promotion.*

Because the sick fellow is down; the Healed fellow is up. 

In Mark 2:1-2, they brought a man who was completely helpless by his friends through the roof to Jesus.

Jesus saw the man and the Faith of his friends, healed him and the man got up. 

The People there Glorified God.

*In the Name that’s above every other name, a Miracle is about to happen in your Life that would bring Glory to God – Amen.*

Thank You Father.

The Lord asked me to tell Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC, the Doctors said they will need to operate on you.

*The Lord said He has cancelled their Report – Amen.*

In John 9:1-7, there was a man who was born blind from the womb. And the Disciples of Jesus asked, “Master, who sinned: this man or his Parents?” Jesus said, no one sinned, it is so that God can be Glorified in his Life.

*For Someone here today, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC, God will reverse the Irreversible – Amen.*

*God will do what Nobody can ever think Possible for you, so that People will Glorify God in your Life – Amen.*

*You must have noticed that in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), when we give Testimony, People are no longer excited – They feel, “let’s hear the big ones.*

This Morning in this Service we heard the Testimony of a Sister who was involved in an accident that claimed the lives of several People. She only had broken bones (which are completely healed now). 

You only said Congratulations! You were not excited.

Why? Because you’ve heard of the Testimony of Someone who was dead foe many days who came back to Life when the Anointed Handkerchief was Placed on her. 

Yet, it ought not to be so.

Also, this Morning we heard the Testimony of a couple who have been believing God for a child for fourteen (14) years, and God has blessed them with a child. 

And you were not excited. 

But when some other fellow Testified that God blessed her with a set of Triplet you all shouted for Joy.

*That kind of Testimony that would cause People to shout for Joy, receive your own now, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.*

Why does God Heal or Cure the Incurable? 

It has a Purpose. 

Mark 1:40-45 tells us about a Leper – He was not supposed to be seen in the midst of People, but he found his way to Jesus and said, I know You can heal me if You are willing. 

Jesus touched him, immediately he was Cleansed.

Nobody begged him to Testify – He just couldn’t keep the Testimony to himself. He went everywhere telling People about Jesus. 

God knew he will be His Witness when healed.

*Someone here this Morning, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC, you will receive Miracles that you won’t be able to keep quiet – Amen.*

2. *When someone in Bondage, Captured by Forces of Darkness is Set Free – That’s Promotion.*

In Mark 5:2-20; it is the Story of the Madman of Gadarene. 

He was so Possessed that he was living in the Graveyard. 

But then one day, the Almighty God gave him a rapid Promotion.

The Madman became sober and well dressed. 

But then, when he came to say ‘Thank You’ to Jesus and he asked to follow Him. Jesus said to him, the reason I Promoted you is so that you will go and tell your People about the Good News of Christ.

When the People saw him and realised that he was the reason their pigs drown, they sent Jesus away. 

Jesus said there’s no Problem. I have left a Part of me with you. 

*They received Jesus Christ because of the Promotion of the Madman from Darkness to Light.*

*There’s Someone here this Morning, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC, because of the Miracle God would give you, Rivers State will receive the Lord – Amen.*

I am sure not all of you know the History of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) in Rivers State: 

Somebody was sick and the driver brought her to the Headquarters of the Church at Ebute Meta (Lagos Nigeria).

She gave her Life to Jesus, we Prayed for her and she was healed. 

She told her Sister who had a serious Sickness than hers. 

That one too came, gave her Life to Jesus. We Prayed for her and she was also healed.

*So, she said, I have to take this Church to Port Harcourt.*

We came, she gave us a house to start the first Parish of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) in Port Harcourt.

That house was filled, she gave a second house, that one one too became filled. She gave a third because she got healed.

*And today, look around you – Behold what is now known as “The Rivers Family”!*

*There were many sick People in the Land, but God saw a Grateful Daughter – A Person who is going to be a blessing to Rivers State and her environs and He gave her Healing.*

*Is anybody here, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC, ready to be a Blessing to the Lord near and far? Yes, for “The DMC Family Members”!*

Shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

In Luke 8:1-3, there were some women there, but the name of a Particular woman (Mary Magdalene) was mentioned. 

She had seven (7) demons and she was a Chief amongst Witches. 

God drove out the demons, and she became a Divine Treasurer.

*I have Good News for somebody here this morning, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC – You find it difficult to pay house rent but very soon I will Dedicate your Estate because God is looking for Treasurers. Amen!*

*Is there anyone who wants to be a Divine Treasurer? Say, Yes Lord I am here – For all DMC Family Members!*

He is the One who said, The Silver is mine, and the Gold is mine, saith the LORD of Hosts – Haggi 2:8

*In Jesus’ Name, None of your here, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC will die Poor – Amen.*

In Genesis 12:1-3, when God decided to pick Abraham, He made him a Promise – And I will make of thee a Great Nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name Great.

The Reason? So that you can become a Blessing. 

– When God decides to bless you, it is so that you can use your Blessing to be a blessing to others.

– When God Prospers you, it is so  that you can use your Prosperity to be Prosper others.

*I believe God sent me here this Morning to be brief – So that you will remember that the Promotion He is bringing your way is for a Purpose and the Purpose is to Please Him.*

*GIVE GOD PRAISE*

In Acts 3:1-8, the Bible tells us of a man who was born Lame. He was taken to the Beautiful Gate daily to beg for alms. All his life he was Stagnant: being dropped there in the Morning and picked up in the Evening.

He saw People going into the Temple, he saw how they were Praising God. But he would be thinking – Look at the way these People are Praising God. And deep within him he cried to God, “how I wish I have legs, I would have taught these People how to Praise You, Lord.” 

And one day came!

*… And the day of Somebody has come today – Amen.*

He saw two (2) Men of God Passing, he said, “Alms for the Poor! Give me money.” 

And God said, it’s not money you need – You need to be made Whole.

*Oh! I Pray for somebody here this morning, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC; in the Name that’s above every other name, no sick fellow would leave here with Sickness – Amen!*

The Man of God (Peter) said, Silver and Gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.

When he got up, he was not just walking; he was leaping and doing what? Praising God!

*You see, many atimes you miss your Miracle because, what God wants is Praise. And you feel too big to give Him until you are being Prompted to do so before you Praise Him. And yet God is looking for People who would give Him Praise willingly.*

Let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

*Giving God Praise from the bottom of your Heart can solve your Problems.*

You’ve heard the Testimony of a woman (very Wealthy). 

She had this Problem – No matter what she ate, she vomited. 

She went to the best Doctors, traveled all over the world. Did so many X-rays but no Solution.

Finally, someone directed her to the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) and she came to the Headquarters. 

And just as she came in the Almighty God said, today I want People to Praise me. As she shouted Hallelujah, a worm jumped out of her mouth.

It was a Demonic worm and X-ray could not see it because X-ray do not show you Demons. 

Just one shout of Hallelujah solved her Problem. 

God is Sovereign, He does as He Pleases (Psalms 115:3).

Thank You Father.

The Lord asked me to tell Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

*He said, even before the end of this Month (January), He will give you something to Dance about – Amen.*

The Lord loves us in Rivers State!

Daddy asked me to tell Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

*He said very soon, you are going to be shouting Hallelujah – You will wake up in the Night shouting Hallelujah – Amen.*

Oh! Thank You Daddy.

The Lord asked me to tell a woman here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

*He said, when you will be Testifying  with your Children next year (2025), Nobody will be able to sit down – Amen.*

 *WHEN GOD SAVES A SINNER, IT IS  FOR A PURPOSE.*

… I am closing with that.

When that boy was Testifying this Morning, he said he was an Armed Robber. That he was using charms.

And that one day, he was Praying to God (laughs)! Although the Moderator didn’t let him to finish.

But God kept him alive to show that He is the One who picks a man from the Miry Clay and put him on the Rock to Stand.

Let me hear someone shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

That’s the best Testimony I’ve heard today! Because deep inside him he knew there is God. And he was trying to reach out to God but didn’t know how.

Many People want to experience Salvation, but have no one to explain how they can be saved. 

*One of the reasons why God Promoted you is to share the Message of Salvation.*

I will remind you of my Story; although some of you don’t like it when I share the Story.

This fellow speaking to you today used to be a “Rotten Sinner”. So, I can relate with the Testimony of that Boy.- Although I was not an Armed Robber. 

Which means some Sinners are deeper than others (laughs).

I used to go to Church, and I even bought clocks for the Church. But I had so many girlfriends that I couldn’t even count them – I was rotten. 

There was one of the girls that I did so many things with – Don’t ask me for details (Laugher)!

We Parted ways: I got married, she also got married. 

In the meantime I met the Lord Jesus Christ, got Genuine Salvation. Not the kind of Salvation that some of you claim to have these days – I mean Genuine Salvation that makes sin repulsive.

I became a Pastor – Glory be to God!

Years Past! I was a Lecturer at the University of Ilorin (Kwara State Nigeria) and was also Pastoring one of our “Little Churches” back then. 

Her husband was transferred to Ilorin. They had a child who was born Lame – Never walked before.

Somebody told her, there is a Pastor in town if he Prays for your child he will walk. 

So she came to the Mission House. “I want to see the Pastor.” She opened the door and saw me (Laughter)!

And we greeted: Long time no see (old flames). 

Finally, she said, I want to see the Pastor. I said Yes, can I help you? She said, you? Yes, I am the Pastor. She said, you will Pray and God will answer?

… Let someone shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

And we Prayed a Simple Prayer and the child walked.

He saved me out of my Rottenness to be a Vessel unto Honour to Him.

*He had a Purpose for my Salvation – So that whenever People like you are gathered, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC and you hear me, your tommorow would be alright – Amen.*

The Bible says, Therefore if any Man be in Christ, he is a New Creature: Old Things are Passed away; behold, all things are become New – 2 Corinthians 5:17.

*Let God Promote you this Morning!*

*Let Him pull you from the Miry Clay and set your feet on the Rock to Stand.*

*ALTAR CALL*

So, before we Pray, those of you who want Him to take sin out of your Life; 

All those who want to become Vessels of Honour unto our God, come now and Surrender your Life to Jesus Christ.

Today is your Day of Salvation – God is going to Promote you from the pit of sin and put you on the Rock of Salvation.

*… Those of you clapping, your hands will never wither – Amen.*

Oh! Thank You Lord.

Now, those of you who are ready to Genuinely Surrender to the Lord Jesus Christ cry to the Almighty God:

Please save my Soul Lord, give me Genuine Salvation, Promote me from Hell and help me to make Heaven on the Last Day.

Ask Him to give you a Brand New Beginning, and take you out of Darkness into the Kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Talk to Him now.

And the rest of us, let’s Stretch our hands to these our Brothers and Sisters and intercede for them.

That the One who saved us would save their Souls also, that He would give them Genuine Salvation; that they would hate sin; and that they would serve God all the days of their Life.

Brethren, Pray for them for just two (2) Minutes.

Thank You Father! In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

*PRAYER FOR SALVATION*

Saviour, Thank You for Your Word.

Thank You for these People who have come forward to Genuinely surrender to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Your Word says, those who come to You, You will in no wise cast out. 

Father, they are here now:

Please, receive them; save their Souls. Let Your Blood wash away their sins.

Write their names in the Book of Life, recieve them into the Family of God.

And from now on my Father and my God, anytime they call on You, answer them by Fire.

Promote them far above Principalities and Powers.

And don’t let the devil ever have Power over them any longer.

Thank You my Father and my God.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Now, those of you who have Genuinely Surrendered your Life to Jesus Christ – Congratulations!

Let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

I Rejoice with you. I will be Praying for you from now on. 

And I guarantee you that very soon you will be receiving Miracles and you will know that someone is Praying for you – That someone is me.

So, I will need your names, your Address and your Prayer Requests – God Bless You!

… The rest of us, if you believe today is your day Stand on your feet!

I am going on Pray for you and then you can go ahead and Pray for yourself.

*CLOSING PRAYER*

My Father and my God, I want to Thank You because You are the Great Promoter.

Nothing happens by accident – You brought these People today because You want to Promote them for a Purpose

So Father, accept our Thanks, in Jesus’ Name.

I commit everyone here, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC into Your Hands:

If they are sick, Promote them to Health.

If they are bound, Promote them to Freedom.

If they are Poor, Promote them to Wealth.

If they are barren, Promote them to Fruitfulness.

If they are Stagnant, Promote them to Double Promotions.

If they are sad, Promote them to Joy.

If for one reason or the other men have said they are Hopeless, Promote them to Victory.

If there is any one of them crying for one thing or the other without answer, today Promote them to Miracles.

Whatever they ask for today, before this Sun would set, let it become a Testimony.

And then the Grace to serve You, Please release unto these Your Children.

Thank You my Father!

For in Jesus’ Mighty Name I have Prayed – Amen!

Now, you know the area you need Promotion urgently. I will give you five (5) Minutes to cry to the Almighty God;

Father, in this Particular area(s) of my Life, Promote me now because You are the Great Promoter.

Go ahead, talk to the Almighty God.

Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
