OPENING PRAYER
Our Father and our God, King of kings and Lord of lords. The I AM THAT I AM. The Unchangeable Changer.
Glory be to Your Holy Name!
We Your Children are saying Good Morning to You Lord.
Thank You for waking us up this Morning; and for waking us up this New Month (August 2025).
Thank You for Your Mercy that never comes to an end.
Accept our Thanks, in Jesus’ Name.
Thank You for Yesterday, Thank You for Today, and Thank You in advance for Tomorrow.
Glory be to Your Holy Name!
We are here again Today; before the Foundations of the world You have Supported a Plan for our lives.
Father, bring that Plan to pass in our lives, in Jesus’ Name.
For all Your Children who are travelling Today, we Pray that You’ll grant them Journey Mercies.
Father we Pray, from Today onwards, in every facets of our lives, we will be close to You.
Thank You Almighty God.
For we Pray in Jesus’ Mighty Name – Amen.
Let Somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.
Good Morning to you all.
We would normally go for our Prayer Walk Today. Since I forgot to remind you to come with your Walking Shoes, we would Postpone it till Tomorrow.
The Program today will be:
- Morning Talk.
- A Break so we can Pray.
- Then by 1.00pm we will gather to listen to Testimonies.
We have discovered that when it is Testimony Time, you hardly find Ministers coming forward to Testify.
And yet the Bible says, they Overcame the devil by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of their Testimony (DMC NOTES: Revelation 12:11).
Even if you don’t have your own Personal Testimony, there is at least one ( 1) Major Thing God did in your Parish in the Past one year.
I trust my God, so it is not Possible that there is no Testimony at all in a whole Year.
I was in England, and I stumbled on the one of the Parishes in Akura Nigeria – The Service was Online. They never knew I could be listening at all. When it was Testimony Time, and I was dazed.
A woman there Testified that at Age 64, God finally answered her.
Another fellow said he fell from a 25-Storey, and just before he got to the Ground, something stopped him – He did not reach the Ground.
I said, these things are happening, and when we say, “It is Testimony Time” during Convention, we don’t hear your Testimonies?
Even if it is from your Parish, we want to hear it.
- And then we will begin to listen to the Reports from the Various Continents. We normally begin by 7.00pm – The National Overseer will Coordinate.
Then I’ll join you by 8.00pm.
HYMNS:
- Let us with a Gladsome Mind.
- Praise Him, Praise Him, Jesus’ our Blessed Redeemer.
- O Worship the King all Glorious above.
The Bible says, the Angels that are Praising God 24/7 are thousands of thousands; Plus ten thousand times ten thousand (DMC NOTES: Revelation 5:11).
That means they are very many.
But the Almighty God still says, “I am seeking for Worshippers; I am looking for somebody who would say Lord, you will hear my voice I will be there to worship you in Spirit and in Truth (John 4:23-24).
We are many here, but God is going to hear my voice.
Out of the Multitude, He is going to hear somebody who would say Daddy, I Worship You.
When I look at my Life, I see how far Your Mercy has carried me. Lord – I appreciate You.
In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Worshipped – Amen.
PRAYER
Be Glorified for ever Oh LORD:
God the Father, be Glorified.
God the Son, be Glorified,
God the Holy Spirit, be Glorified.
In all our lives, Father be Glorified.
On behalf of our Iindividual Families, be Glorified.
On behalf of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Please Father, don’t reject our Worship.
In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Let Someone shout hallelujah – Hallelujah.
God Bless You!
Please, be seated.
Our Main Bible Text for this Ministers’ Conference is: 1 John 4:4 – “Ye are of God, little children, and have Overcome them: because Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world”.
Not just children – Little one.
And yet, as little as you are; as Young as you are, you are Overcomers; because “Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.”
An amazing Passage!
And for this Morning in Particular, the Bible Text would be: Daniel 11:32;
And such as do wickedly against the Covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the People that do know their God shall be Strong, and do Exploits.
GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN YOU
When He says, “Greater is He that is in you” the logical Question is:
“Who is He that is in me that has made me Overcomer?”
Knowledge is so important, that in Philippians 3:8-11, Paul said, everything that is of Value to me I let it go.
Why? “That I may know him, and the Power of His Resurrection, and the Fellowship of His Sufferings, being made Conformable unto His Death;”
Knowledge is incredibly Valuable.
During our visit to Israel, they taught us something I’ll never forget way back in 1995:
It says, if you want to lose an Election in Israel Play down on Education.
Because Israel has discovered that everything you may acquire can be taken at the Border but they cannot take what’s in your brain.
Because with what is in your brain, you can turn a Desert to a Land flowing with Milk and Honey.
The Immigration Officer can seize everything you have acquired; but he cannot open your brain and take what you are.
Knowledge is incredibly Valuable!
Who is He that is in you, that has made you an Overcomer?
Colossians 1:27 gives us a hint – Which is: “Christ in you, the Hope of Glory”.
%Christ in you means:*
- You are not going to know Shame.
- You can’t know Defeat.
It means all you can expect is Victory.
Paul said in Galatians 4:19 – My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you.
My Prayer for you is: Let Christ be formed in your children – Amen.
The Bible says in Isaiah 9:6 – For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the Government shall be upon his Shoulder: and His Name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Who is in me that has made me a Conqueror? That has seen to it that I am an Overcomer?
Let’s look at His Name one by one;
- Wonderful:
It takes a Wonder to turn me to a Wonder!
You can ask me about that – I came from a Village where in the olden days (not now) if the Witches say they would use you for Pepper Soup, it means you won’t see tomorrow.
I am talking about People who really knew all the ability of Satan.
We are surrounded by very big Cities – And in the Olden days, you Prove your Superiority by waging war with the small Villages and taking over them.
But I never heard that the big Cities ever Conquered that small Village – They knew that it might be small,
but you don’t toy with them.
Something happened way back in 1960; there was a little Misunderstanding between my Dad and another Member of the Clan – I was the cause of the the Problem and they said to my father, you are defending your son, “we will see how long he will live.”
When my father told my mother – That Night, my mother took me and we fled!
We trekked over 20 Kilometers that Night so that if the Witches come, I won’t be around – I was away for thirteen (13) years.
Then I gave my Life to Jesus Christ.
Suddenly I realized, “Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world.”
Ha! And I have been going home ever since.
I know what it means to be a Wonder – If Jesus Christ is in you, you must automatically become a Wonder to the rest of the world.
I am a Wonder, I don’t know about you!
I do know that as a Member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), you are a Wonder.
That we are here on this Redemption Camp alone, shows we are Wonders.
Because when we got here, we arrived on a four and a half (4 ½) Hectares of Land.
Today, even the Auditorium is bigger than that.
This Particular Place happened to be a “Den of Robbers”.
The first time we were to hold our Convention here, I went out from my Makeshift Office, and I saw a tree burning.
The entire tree was burning but there was no fire – So I thought, maybe my children lit a fire and forgot to put it out before going to bed.
The following Morning, the leaves on the tree were as Green as ever – No trace of fire.
I wasn’t Dreaming! I know what I saw.
So I said to the Carpenters, “this is what I saw last Night.”
They said, Daddy we were afraid to tell you; we’ve been hearing voices inside the tree, and People Pounding at Night.
I call the Young Men – We got cutlasses and we cut the tree down.
And may I decree: If there is any tree not Planted by God in your Life and family, it will go down Today – Amen.
My boys cut down the tree – Within five (5) Minutes the Villagers gathered: What are you doing? If you cut that tree down, by the following Morning, it will rise again. And as it rises, those who cut it down will die.
I said, thank you for the warning.
We cut down the tree but it never rose again – Hallelujah.
Pastor David Kuo (DMC NOTES: Retired AGO on Special Duties) was the Leader of those who cut down the tree.
He is still here Today.
Lift your hand and say: Thank You Lord for making me a Wonder!
It is a Wonder to turn me to a wonder; because 1 Kings 8:27 describes Him as the one that Heaven of heavens cannot contain. And yet He squeezes Himself and dwells in me.
But will God indeed dwell on the Earth? Behold, the Heaven and Heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?
That is a Wonder!
Yes, He is in this tiny me – If He wants, He can fill the whole Earth.
- Counsellor:
A Counsellor is someone who can give you Advice.
And He is someone who knows more than you do.
Daniel 2:21-22 says: And He Changeth the times and the Seasons: He removeth Kings, and setteth up Kings: He giveth Wisdom unto the Wise, and Knowledge to them that know Understanding:
The One inside me is the Source of Wisdom.
The Bible says Wisdom and Knowledge belong to Him.
It takes a Counselor to give you the kind of Wisdom that would cause you to defeat all Enemies in a Sentence.
In John 8:1-11, they brought a woman to the Lord Jesus Christ. She was caught in the very act of Adultery.
We did a Bible Study on that Particular Passage in America some weeks ago.
And I told them, Every one of you is in a Watchlist – Your name has been put down in the List of People being Watched.
Because the Bible says this woman was caught “in the very act.”
It shows you that they have been watching her – They know when her boyfriend goes in and comes out.
This Particular day, they acted.
Whether you believe it or not, there are People watching you; and waiting for you to make just one mistake.
And the interesting thing is that they allowed the boy to escape.
For whatever reason, there are People who are interested in your destruction.
“What have I done to them?”
The devil is a Specialist in Stealing, Killing and Destroying (DMC NOTES: John 10:10).
When they brought the woman to Jesus, trapped, with no defense.
And they put it to the Lord Jesus Christ: “This is what the Law says, and this woman was caught in the very act.”
But the One she was brought to is the Counselor – That’s all, and the battle was over.
There is what is called, the Word of Wisdom (1 Corinthians 12:8).
Word of Wisdom is the word that settles your Enemies once and for all.
For example, when I became the General Overseer, many of the Elders then didn’t believe I was appointed by God – They thought that I used my Education to dazzle the Founder.
So the Governing Council had the Last say, and they made up their Mind that I not going to Succeed – So they gave me Hell.
We were Meeting every Month – And I was still shuttling between Lagos and Ilorin (DMC NOTES: Capital City of Kwara State).
Whenever I came up with an idea to move the Church forward, the Governing Council would say, No.
One day, as I was coming from Ilorin to Lagos, as I was on the Bridge, God spoke.
God will speak to you, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
God said, my son. Yes, Lord! At the Meeting Today
, don’t say one word until I tell you to.
Because I kept on using Logic.
God said, this time, don’t say a word until I tell you to.
And the Meeting began – Opposition on things I never did or Planned.
Oh, it was tough.
And all of a sudden, God spoke and said: Tell them this.
And I said Brethren, thank you for everything you have all said. With due respect, and with the Love I have for you, I just want to remind you that on the Last Day, every Man will give Account of every word spoken.
One sentence, and everything just Changed!
The Almighty God who gives Gift will give to you the Word of Wisdom – Amen.
- The Mighty God:
The Mighty God is dwelling in me:
- The One who told Sarah in Genesis 18:9-14: Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of Life, and Sarah shall have a son.
- The One the Bible says in Jeremiah 32:27: Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
- The One to whom it is written in Luke 1:37: For with God Nothing shall be impossible.
Why can’t I be an Overcomer when the One dwelling in me says, with Him Nothing shall be impossible?
How can I not Succeed when the One dwelling in me Strengthens me always (Philippians 4:13)?
He is your Associate.
And you need to understand that “In you” here means He is closer to you than your Pregnancy.
Somebody said, wherever the Pregnant woman goes, the Pregnancy goes with her.
She cannot say, “Baby wait for me here.” .
When she is bathing, eating, or sleeping; the Pregnancy must be there.
God in me!
If Somebody like that is really in you, He will cause you to laugh Last.
Because in Genesis 22:1-7; Sarah said, God hath made me to Laugh, so that all that hear will Laugh with me.
I have Good News for Somebody, you will Laugh Last – Amen!
I can tell you several Stories of Laughing Last – Maybe just one will do.
When I was living in one room in Mushin Lagos State Nigeria (Ghetto of ghettos) – In those days it used to be so tough there.
And I was Praying to God – Just give me a small building (Boys’ Quarters). He said He would build me a City.
Like Joseph, I told my friends, this is what God said – They laughed, because it won’t make sense.
Today, when I see some of them coming out of their houses here in the Redemption City; I Laugh.
I decree in the Name that’s above every other name, you will Laugh Last – Amen.
- Everlasting Father:
It means, Everlasting Helper – He gives the Victory that lasts.
Because it is Possible to win today, and lose tomorrow.
A war is a series of Battles – You can win a battle today and lose the battle tomorrow. At the end of the day you can still become the Victor.
The Africans have a deep Proverb; “Don’t rejoice that you have children; it is the one the children bury that truly has children”.
It is Possible to have ten (10) children, and all ten can die when the Parents are alive.
So don’t boast that you have children yet.
In Boxing; I used to be a Boxer – Next Sunday (DMC NOTES: 3rd of August 2025); we will be talking about Boxing, because the Theme is along that line (DMC NOTES: “THE WINNING TEAM”.
So I’ll be using Boxing in the illustration.
When you get to the ring, to win, you are expected to go through fifteen (15) Rounds of three (3) Minutes each.
It does not matter how many Rounds that you have won, if at the Final Round your Opponent knocks you out; you a Loser.
Even if you have won Rounds 1 to 14, but in the Final Round your Opponent uses Sleigh Hammer, Upper Hook Cut; dodging all your blows and you land on the Ground, you are a Loser.
When you have just won a Victory, one of the ways to know you have won is how loud your shout is.
It’s not everybody who starts a race that finished.
You are an Overcomer if at the end you win.
You can win now and lose later.
In Joshua Chapter 6, the children of Israel shouted – They moved in and Conquered the City.
But in the following Chapter (DMC NOTES: Joshua Chapter 7); they came to a small City called Ai and they were thoroughly beaten.
Even after they told Joshua, the Enemies still killed forty six (46) of them.
And Joshua fell on his face, his hands trembling.
I Pray for everyone of you: Your Victory will not become a defeat – Amen.
The One in you is called the Everlasting Father – A Father who would not joke with his children.
I remembered when I was living in Mushin, Police won’t come there.
So we set up a Vigilante Group – Every family was asked to nominate someone.
Nobody noted their children.
Somebody said, be careful so that what happened to Job does not happen to you.
Well, if you read the Book of Job very well, the Bible says Job was a Servant – I am a Son!
Nobody wants to Perform an Experiment with his or her children.
The African Proverbs says, “The Witch is boasting, and the bird is also boasting; the Witch doesn’t know the bird wants to feed on his child.”
No matter how wicked a Juju Man (DMC NOTES: “Juju Man” means a Traditional Practitioner) can be, he won’t try his juju (DMC NOTES: “Juju” means “Fetish Voodoo or Charm”) on his children.
So what happened to Job can never happen to me – I am a son of God, and not His servant.
There are things that Servants don’t know – Because they don’t need to know.
May I ask you this Question: How many Children of God are here Today? The DMC Family Members!
Let mw hear you shout hallelujah – Hallelujah.
I was shocked when I heard People say, “we’ve been serving you for thirty (30) years.”
I said, me? I thought we are all serving God together as a Team?
If you are serving God, you would have grown. And He is the Only One who would ensure your Victory is Permanent.
Some of you have heard the Testimony of one fellow who had someone in Lagos that could help him, ‘Baba Eko.’
He arrived Lagos, located the Address, knocked on the door.
The one who opened the door said, “you’ve heard already?” Heard what? Baba Who is dead!
Thank God the One in me is the Lord, He changeth not. He is the Everlasting Father.
- Prince of Peace:
It takes the Prince of Peace dwelling in you to still a Storm with one word.
PROPHESY
Thank Father!
The Lord asked me to tell Someone here: You came leaving behind a Storm at home.
He asked me to tell you: The storm is over – Amen.
In Mark 4:35-41, you know the Story – Jesus was in a boat, and it was almost filled with water.
The Disciples woke Him up, Master, we are about to drown and you are sleeping.
He woke up and said, “Peace be still.” And immediately the Storm ceased!
That’s the One who is dwelling in you!
In Mark 5:2-20, the Bible talks about a Man who had a Legion of demons.
That’s a man in a Storm – That is a real good example.
The Prince of Peace spoke just one word, Go! And they left.
And the man who thought he would die in the tomb ended up re-claiming his Destiny – He became an Evangelist.
Many of us don’t know what is really a Storm – I Pray that you will never know what a Storm is (Amen).
I have given you one example of a Physical Storm before.
I was traveling to London in our Nigerian Airways of Blessed Memory.
When we got to Heathrow, the Pilot announced that the Plane had a little Problem.
What? The door at the bottom has refused to open – Meaning that the Landing Gear can’t come out.
Meaning, we are about to crash.
That day I was traveling First Class because somebody bought the Ticket.
That was the day I knew rich People don’t want to die.
I mean, everybody was afraid, including your Beloved Daddy G.O – Laughter.
There was a rich man there – All the things he was putting on was enough to buy me if I were for sale.
He had a Golden Walking Stick. So he was going to the toilet, he won’t enter – Just wanted us to see his Golden Walking Stick.
When the Pilot made that Announcement, he really, really wanted to go to the toilet this time. But the Air Hostess said, sit down! “Who said so?”
Suddenly everybody started to say things Nobody always asking them – One woman said, I am going to London to take care of my Grandchild.
Who asked her? I said O God, when I was with my family Last Night, You didn’t tell me I would not see them again.
I Pray that you will never know a Storm – Amen.
Anointing or not, if you see fire you will shake.
By then the Prince of Peace spoke. He said, Son you are not going to die.
Because the Pilot was adding fuel to the fire – He said, the Fire Fighters in Heathrow Airport are very efficient.
And the Prince of Peace spoke: Son, you are not going to die. I want to talk to you, because as soon as you land, the People won’t let me talk to you.
Suddenly the Storm was Stilled for me.
For Minutes, we kept on going in Circles – My Daddy and I were having a Wonderful Time: Enjoying Father and son discussion.
I decree today in the Name of the Prince of Peace, for the rest of your Life, you will know Peace – Amen.
Let me Conclude:
Ephesians 3:20 says, Now unto him that is able to do Exceeding Abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the Power that worketh in us.
… That worketh in us:
Because there is Someone in us, even things we do not ask for, we can get.
One Great Man of God said something that Changed my Prayer Life, and I am going to tell you.
He said, when you don’t know how to Pray – Because occasionally situations can cause that; he said you should Pray in the Spirit, and interject it with JESUS.
Pray in Tongues, then put in Jesus.
Which reminds me of the Testimony of Something that happened several years ago:
There was a Programme in Kaduna, “Festival of Art.”
As the People were returning to Lagos, there was an Accident – Many People died; the only one who did not die was in a Comma.
Once in a while he would come to this surface and shout Jesus!
You know, the Bible says, out of the Abundance of the Heart the mouth speaks – I’m sure before he became unconscious, he was loaded with Jesus.
He continued like that for days, so they couldn’t bury him because he was not dead.
Some days later, he came up again, and shouted Jesus and woke up, Completely whole!
I want to encourage you to try that method of Prayer today – Probably it’s the Greatest Prayer.
Just be Praying in Tongues and calling the Name Jesus.
I would encourage that you Pray in the Spirit and put in Jesus.
Go ahead and try it.
God Bless You!
Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
