    GENERAL PRAYERS

    1. Why don’t you just lift up your hands to this Father of ours?

    The Great and Mighty Father; the Father of the fatherless; the Living God Himself, the Almighty.

    King of kings, Lord of lords. The Eternal One, the One who speaks, and it is done.

    Worship Him; Praise Him from the bottom of your heart. Let Him hear your voice today.

    He is the One You have come to meet in this Important Meeting – He has never failed; and He will never fail you.

    Worship Him and exalt His Name!

    Lord, we Worship You and we appreciate You today Oh GOD.

    Thank You our Father.

    Lord, we Praise You and we exalt Your Name.

    Thank You Heavenly Father; Blessed be Your Name.

    Glory, Honour, Majesty, Adoration to Your Name alone.

    Thank You Heavenly Father. Be Thou Exalted forever O GOD.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have worshipped – Amen

    1. Daddy told us Yesterday (DMC NOTES: Sunday, 2nd March 2025, during the Day 1 Evening Session of The RCCG Solemn Assembly 2025) that each time we are not Praising God as we should, we are not Providing Habitation for our God.

    This Morning, I want God to know that you want Him to inhabit your Praises.

    This Morning, I want you to release yourself to Him as you have never done before.

    Go ahead and Praise Him from the bottom of your Heart.

    Let Him know that you are not taking Him for granted for what He has done for you.

    He has visited us, especially during this Programme, over and over again over the Years.

    You would say my Father; I have come to Praise You this Morning.

    My Father, I want You to know how Grateful I am for who You are and for all You have done.

    My Father, who can we compare with You?

    You are Glorious in Holiness, Fearful in Praises, and always doing Wonders. Lord, I Praise You!

    Lord, we are not taking You for granted.

    We know You inhabit the Praises the of Your People. We have come to Praise You today, Oh GOD.

    We open our Hearts to You, Oh LORD: the Lord that answer Prayers.

    The Lord that inhabits the Praises of His Own Children, and we have come to Praise You Oh GOD.

    My Father, Greater than the greatest – That is who You are.

    Higher than the highest – That is who You are.

    Wonderful, Counsellor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace – I have come to Praise You today.

    Lord God, we Praise Your Name. We appreciate You.

    Thank You, Heavenly Father, Blessed be Your Name.

    Thank You Lord. Be Thou exalted forever, Oh GOD.

    Thank You Father.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we Pray – Amen.

    1. The Bible tells us in Psalm 46:1-2, God is our Refuge and Strength, a very Present Help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the Earth be removed, and though the Mountains be carried into the midst of the sea.

    I don’t know why you have come to this Meeting this Morning.

    But the Bible says there is Someone who can take care of your fears.

    You are going to cry unto Him; you are going to cry unto this God who is our very Present Help in trouble.

    And you are going to say: Heavenly Father, I have come unto You this Morning, take care of all my fears.

    Cry to Him!

    The Lord who can give us Unspeakable Joy, take care of all my fears.

    You have never Changed, You will never Change and You remain the same forever.

    The very Present Help in time of need, take care of all my fears.

    You are the very Present Help in trouble, You are the One who can give Joy Unspeakable:

    Yes Lord, take care of all – Not some: take care of all my fears.

    Thank You Heavenly Father. Blessed be Your Name Oh GOD.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we Pray – Amen.

    OPENING PRAYER

    Heavenly Father, we appreciate You this Morning – We honour You for who You are.

    We give You Glory, Honour, and Adoration, because of Your Great and Mighty Name that You have released unto us.

    The Bible says, At the Name of Jesus, every knee must bow.

    We appreciate You Oh GOD, because You are the Great Companion; the One who is always there by our side.

    We Thank You because You are our Sure Friend and there is no other Name like Your Own.

    Father, Thank You in the Name of Jesus.

    We have come for the Victory Hour of the Month of March 2025 – And without any doubt, we know this is our Month of Triple Miracles, Triple Breakthroughs, and Triple Testimonies.

    Heavenly Father, as we have come today Oh LORD; You will take care of all our fears, in the Name of Jesus.

    Do what You alone can do.

    Thank You Heavenly Father.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we Pray – Amen.

    Let Somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

    I want you to shake hands with at least three (3) People and Prophesy to them: This is your Month!

    And then we can have our seats.

    We want to take this opportunity to Thank God on behalf of our father-in-the-Lord; for the Privilege he has given to us to Stand in for him this Morning.

    And we want to take this time to Celebrate him as he celebrates his 83rd Birthday.

    We Pray that the Lord shall Increase his Strength on a Daily basis – Amen.

    … And everybody would say a good Amen to that (Amen).

    We are looking at Luke 18:35-43, for this Victory Hour today.

    Remember, our Theme this Month is: “Joy Unspeakable”.

    And the Almighty God is about to give Joy Unspeakable to Someone here today, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC – Amen!

    … Who is the next in line? The DMC Family Members!

    There was a Man in the Bible who experienced Joy Unspeakable – He is the one that we are going to look at, for few Minutes this Morning.

    Luke 18: 35-42:

    35 And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the wayside begging:

    36 And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.

    37 And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.

    38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have Mercy on me.

    39 And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his Peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David, have Mercy on me.

    40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,

    41 Saying, What will thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.

    42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy Faith hath saved thee.

    43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, Glorifying God: and all the People, when they saw it, gave Praise unto God.

    Those who have been rebuking and resisting you will come and Celebrate with you – Amen.

    What the Lord will do in your Life this Month, will make the whole world give Praise to Him because of you (Amen).

    • If there is a Man who experienced Joy Unspeakable, it was this Man.
    • If there is a Man whom the Almighty God decided to visit with a very Special Miracle, it is this man.
    • If there is a Man who experienced Victory – Victory that lasted for the rest of his Life, it is this Story that we are looking at.

    You know the Story very well – This was a Man who was born in Darkness and was born into Darkness.

    For the most part of his Adult Life, he has been living in Darkness – He never saw Light until his Companion Changed.

    And that Companion is the One who is called the Light of the World.

    When the Light of the world came beside him, his Darkness disappeared.

    I have a Good News for Someone who is here today, or reading now on the Label of DMC: That your Companion, who has answer(s) to all the Problems and all situations, is coming by your side to Change your situation this Morning – Amen.

    As He Changed the situation of Bartimaeus, He will Change your own also for the better, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

    If you believe so, let your Amen be louder – Amen!

    This is a Programme called Victory Hour – Because there is Somebody who will Pray through.

    I can assure you today, as we cry to Him; as we Pray to the God of the whole Universe according to His Word:

    He will answer our Prayers today – Amen!

    He will Change our situations for the Better – Amen.

    THREE (3) THINGS FROM THE STORY OF BARTIMAEUS

    There are Three (3) Things to examine from the Story:

    1. He Heard:

    The first thing that we discovered from this Story was the fact that this Man heard – He heard!

    The Bible says in Luke 18:36 And hearing the Multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.

    He Heard!

    There were several things that were being spoken around him that day but there was something that attracted his attention.

    He heard the Multitude Passing by – He asked them, and they told him, it was about Jesus.

    From the moment he heard that ‘it was about Jesus,” he didn’t hear any other thing anymore.

    I don’t know exactly how many things you have been hearing around you today:

    • Voices of Impossibility.
    • Voices of Negativity.
    • Voices of Hopelessness.

    Several things that you have been hearing around you today; and that you have been hearing for several years.

    It doesn’t matter what you have been hearing; this time round, it’s about Jesus!

    And I can assure you: When you hear the right thing, the right thing will happen to you.

    I. Remember, Moses heard his name:

    The day that Moses heard his name – As God called him, Moses, Moses! And he answered, “Here I am.” That was the day his situation Changed.

    In Exodus 3:4, the Bible tells us, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses – And he said, Here I am.

    Remember, he had been going through that part of the bush for forty (40) solid years.

    • For forty (40) solid years, his Life had been on Standstill.
    • For forty (40) solid years, as he was growing older, his situation was be becoming more and more Hopeless.

    But one day came, he heard God calling his name: Moses, Moses!

    And he knew that his situation is about to Change.

    For Someone who has come for this Programme this Morning;

    For Someone who is listening to this Message all over the world, or reading now on the Label of DMC;

    I have a Good News for you: You are about to hear God calling your name this Morning – Amen.

    And when you hear the right thing, the right thing will begin to happen to you.

    Bartimaeus was hearing several things:

    • There were People who came there to jest.
    • There were People who came there just to observe.
    • There were People who came there just to see what was going on.
    • There were People who came there: “Oh! This Jesus they are talking about, let me just go and see whether He is the one or not.”

    But as far as Bartimaeus was concerned; all he wanted to know was about Jesus.

    II. Remember, Joshua heard God:

    Saying to him that he should: Arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all these People, unto the Land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.

    When Joshua heard that, in Joshua 1:2; Arise! For forty (40) days he has been sitting down, mourning Moses.

    But that day came, when God told him, “The time for mourning is over.”

    Whatever may be your Experience of the Past; God has asked me to tell you: The time for mourning is over – Amen !

    It is your time to Arise! Because God is about to do something New in your Life – Amen.

    That which He has Promised you that has not come to Passed, is about to become a Possibility – Amen.

    God had Promised their forefathers for over four hundred (400) years – God had already said that He had given them the Land.

    But when it was almost time for them to enter, they sat down because they didn’t know how it would happen.

    So, God came through for Joshua – He heard God distinctly:

    • It is your time to hear God distinctly;
    • It is a time for you to Arise.

    Get out of Despondency; get out of Discouragement; get out of Darkness; get out of every Negativity – Move forward! Because it is your time!

    I want you to turn to your Neighbour and say: I am moving forward! It is my time.

    III. Samuel heard God:

    1 Samuel 3:10 says: And the Lord came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy Servant heareth.

    … That was the day his Prophetic Ministry started.

    Something New is about to happen in your Life today – Amen.

    • I don’t care how long you have been suffering;
    • I don’t know exactly what is the thing that you have been passing through;

    But you know without any doubt: There always comes a time when a New Beginning must begin.

    For Someone here today, or reading now on the Label of DMC: Today is your New Beginning – Amen.

    So, Bartimaeus hearing the Multitudes, he asked them: What is it that is happening around this Place? They told him, it was Jesus.

    The moment he heard that, a Second thing happened in his Life:

    1. He Cried!

    Tell your Neighbour, ‘he cried’ – And I am going to cry out to God this Morning.

    Luke 18:38 says, And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have Mercy on me.

    … He cried for Mercy.

    • You have not come here to complain this Morning;
    • You have not come here to murmur this Morning;
    • You have not come here to tell Jesus Story this Morning;
    • You have not come here to repeat to yourself what the world has told you over and over again.

    The world might have put a Label over you – it doesn’t matter what the world is saying. It is what the Lord is saying to you at this Point in time that matters.

    He cried unto Jesus: Thou Son of David, have Mercy on men (Luke 18:38).

    His Prayer was very Simple.

    Over and over again, I have seen it written in the Bible; People that needed urgent intervention – Their Prayers are always very short. And whenever they cry, God answers them.

    It does not matter exactly how heavy your Problem is this Morning; let that your Prayer be short; but let it be Intent – Cry to the One who sees into your Innermost Being.

    And I can assure you that He would answer you today – Amen.

    • There would always be Discouragements all around you;
    • There’ll be People who would say, “Jesus is not looking for somebody like you.”
    • There would be People who would tell you the reason why you are not the next one that God can visit.

    But as far as this Man is concerned; when they stopped him; when they tried to discourage him; the Bible tells us in Luke 18:39 And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his Peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

    *You must have cried before – This Morning you are going to cry so much the more.

    You are going to tell God that you are still here.

    For as long as you are still on your feet, and you are not buried yet, I can assure you: A Change is on the way – Amen.

    The Bible reveals to us in 2 Samuel 22:7 – In my distress, I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his Temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.

    He cried to God – This was David.

    David was a Man who experienced Unusual Testimonies:

    • The Giant Killer.
    • A Man who became a King against all odds.

    You will accomplish what God has destined for your Life – Amen.

    What God has destined for your Life, you will accomplish it – Amen.

    Where God has destined for your Life, you will get there – Amen.

    It’s Possible in your Place of work that they have told you: There is a limit you can get to. Unless you do this, unless you do that, unless you join us, unless you bow to us; there is a limit you can get to.

    I have a Good News for you: Because God is Limitless, Nobody can determine your limit – Amen.

    You will get there – Amen!

    Tell your neighbour: I will get there!

    They have already put a mark upon David; that it was impossible for him to get to where God wanted him to be.

    All things were working against him.

    The most Powerful Man in the land turned against him; and raised three thousand (3,000) Soldiers because of one small boy.

    May I tell you? It doesn’t matter the odds against you; it doesn’t matter how many People are bounding themselves against you – As the Lord liveth, all of them shall fall for your sake – Amen.

    … I cannot hear your Amen well – Amen!

    It doesn’t matter what Poverty has done concerning your Life – Remember there was a Man who was so Poor, there was a Man who carried his bed, without any comfort all the days of his Life; Until one day he cried to Almighty God. The Lord Changed his situation. His name was Jabez (DMC NOTES: 1 Chronicles 4:9-10).

    The Almighty God that you are going to cry to this Morning; He will Change your situation, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Amen!

    Psalm 34:4-6 says, I sought the Lord, and he heard me and delivered me from all my fears. They looked unto him and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

    This Poor Man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.

    Who is the next fellow who is going to cry out to the Almighty God this Morning? The DMC Family Members!

    Are you sure you are the one?

    I want you to say to yourself – I will cry this Morning. The Lord will hear me and the Lord will save me from all my troubles.

    So shall it be, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

    For Somebody who has suffered for a long time; then it is Possible for you to be saying:

    • Pastor, you don’t know how serious my Problem is.
    • You don’t know the Enemies who have gathered against me.
    • You don’t know the forces that Satan has Marshall against my Interest.

    It doesn’t matter how many People are against you – What matters is the One who is on your side.

    “If God be for us, who can be against us?” (DMC NOTES: Romans 8:31).

    The One who is on your side this Morning is saying, all you need to do is to cry.

    “This Poor Man cried, and the Lord heard him.”

    When you cry to the Lord today, He will hear you – Amen .

    He will save you out of all your troubles – Amen.

    Remember, before you came to the world at all, the Almighty God knew what He will do concerning your situation – He knew all those People will come against you.

    But He is more Powerful than them all. He can do all things – Nothing, absolutely Nothing is impossible for Him to do (DMC NOTES: Luke 1:37).

    All the Testimonies of the People you have heard from the Word of God; they were all Normal People like you. But somewhere along the line, their Stories Changed.

    The Changer of Stories is the One who is here this Morning – And He will Change your Story, in the Name of the Lord Jesus – Amen.

    1. He Received that which he asked of:

    The third thing that I discovered from the Life of this Man is that he received that which he asked of.

    Luke 18:42 says, And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy Faith hath saved thee.

    … He Heard, he Cried, and he Received!

    Jesus told him, “Receive thy sight.” And immediately, he received his sight.

    What God is going to do in your Life today is going to be immediate – Amen.

    It does not matter how long you have been asking, and it seems as if you have been denied;

    But God of the Universe will do an Immediate Miracle in your Life today, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

    I. Take Hannah, for Example :

    • Hannah asked God
    • Hannah cried to God.
    • Hannah went to the house of the Lord.

    She Prayed in such a way that only God knew what she was asking for.

    The High Priest (Eli) said, come out of your drunkenness. Why are you Praying and only your lips are moving? You must be drunken.

    And the woman said, No! Man of God, I am not drunken at all. I have not taken any wine. But I am speaking to God out of the Bitterness of my Soul. I carry a burden that only God can lift.

    May I tell you: it is not the shouting that is going to bring your answer this Morning; but how you release your burden to the Living God.

    Hannah carried a burden within her; and she began to Pray according to that burden.

    Within one year, she came back with her Miracle.

    I don’t know exactly how long they have declared you Barren – And they have said that you are Fruitless!

    May I tell you this Morning, the Lord who answered Hannah will answer you – Amen.

    The Bible tells us that Hannah came back to the Living God.

    1 Samuel 1:19 says: And Elkanah knew Hannah, his wife; and the Lord remembered her.

    “And the Lord remembered her” – Hannah received what she asked God for.

    The Lord will Remember you today – Amen.

    All your cries to God all these Years; and it appears as if God has forgotten about your situation.

    There is a Good News coming to you at this point in time: God will hear you Today; He will remember you Today; He will send a Helper to you Today because your Miracle would be Immediate – Amen.

    II. Jabez is another Example:

    Jabez had been going to the House of the Lord, crying to the Lord. He was asking for a very Simple thing. But God is the only One who can break the Yoke of Poverty.

    There are several People; just as this Man was born into Blindness: and Bartimaeus grew up in Blindness – They were born into Poverty.

    There are many Opportunities that have come their way over the years – They have not been able to explore these Opportunities, because of Poverty. And because of that, they remain in Poor situation.

    But there was a Man called Jabez, who made up his Mind – “I am not going to die with this situation.”

    He went to the Almighty God, and he called on the God of Israel – He Prayed a Simple Prayer also:

    “Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my Coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.” (DMC NOTES: 1 Chronicles 4:10).

    You don’t need to be in the Bible College before you understand this Prayer – He just poured his burden to the Almighty God.

    Is there a burden in your Heart concerning your situation? Pour out your burden to God: “Oh that You would bless me.”

    Don’t just bless me – Bless me indeed!”

    Bless me in such a way, everybody around will know, only God could have given this Blessing.

    Enlarge my Coast in such a way that everyone that Passes by will know, God is the One who has done this.

    For Someone who has come to this Programme today, or reading now on the Label of DMC. I have a Good News for you: Not only are you going to be Blessed; you will be Blessed Indeed! (Amen).

    My Father will Enlarge your Coast – Amen.

    His Hand will be upon your Life – Amen.

    He will keep evil far away from you – Amen!

    Beginning from now, evil shall no more grief you, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

    And the Bible says, God granted him that which he requested.

    *As you shall be going to the Place of Prayer very soon, I want you to know: If this God has Promised, He is more than able to fulfill His Promises.

    The God that you have come to cry to this Day is the God that you have heard about.

    Some of you have heard and read about what God is doing here in the Redemption City of God – This is a Place of Miracles, Signs and Wonders. God has done Exceeding and Mighty Things in this Particular Place.

    You have heard, you have come, and you are about to cry to that same God;

    And I can assure you: You will receive, and you will come back with your Testimony – Amen.

    THIS MAN (BARTIMAEUS) DID SOMETHING

    Before we begin to Pray, I need to mention to you that this Man did something – The moment he heard that Jesus was Passing by:

    He cried out for Mercy and he Followed Jesus.

    If you follow Jesus, beginning from this Morning, I can assure you that you will have Testimony like Bartimaeus.

    He followed Jesus!

    That’s the reason why, the first thing you must make up your to do, is not about receiving from Jesus;

    … It’s about following Jesus!

    He followed Jesus, and up till today; over two thousand years after, the whole world is still talking about him.

    His Joy was Joy Unspeakable.

    What God did in his Life remained a Permanent Testimony for all Generations.

    Your Testimony would be a Permanent Testimony for all Generations, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

    It is time for us to begin to Pray – Wherever you are, I want you to rise on your feet (if you can).

    Because we are going to cry to the Almighty God; just as this Man cried to the Almighty God, and God answered his Prayer.

    Wherever you may be Standing at this Point in time: If you are one of those People who knows that it is only God that can deal with your situation; and you want to follow Jesus from this moment onward.

    You want to follow Him because He is the Only One who can solve all your Problems.

    All the Examples we have given to you; they were the People who followed God, and there was no doubt that God touched their lives.

    He is going to Change your own situation this Morning.

    ALTAR CALL

    Wherever you are reading this Message now on the Label of DMC, and you want to follow Jesus, you want to Submit to Him;

    I want you to step out and begin to come towards the Altar – The Living God Himself is waiting for you.

    Wherever you are, follow Him.

    When you follow Him, everything about you would Change for the better.

    Thank You Lord Jesus!

    PRAYER SESSION

    Let’s begin to wave our hands to the Almighty God – Give Him all the Glory, give Him Adoration.

    We want to Pray some serious Prayer that would Change our Situations this Morning.

    1. You are going to cry for Mercy.

    You are going to say: Heavenly Father, show me Mercy today.

    • Moses heard when God called unto him. And on that day, his Wilderness Experience came to an end.
    1. You are going to cry Heavenly Father, let my Wilderness Experience come to an end Today.
    • You know very well, when David cried to the Lord, the Lord answered him. And where they thought he would not reach, he got there.
    1. You are going to cry Heavenly Father, every Embargo upon my Life, remove it Today.
    • Jabez called on the God of Israel. His Prayer was a Simple one. And this Prayer is crucial at this time.
    • Several People who had been carrying other are now being carried.
    • Financially, many People have gone to the Lowest of the lowest.
    • Many People, their situations have become so bad – Businesses have been wipped out. Employments have been lost, hope has been dashed.

    You are going to cry to the Lord: I am not crying to anyone, but I am crying to You.

    1. You will say Heavenly Father, Bless me, and Bless me indeed!

    Go ahead and cry to the Almighty God this morning.

    Thank You Lord!

    So shall it be, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

    Let me hear your Amen – Amen!

    THANKSGIVINGS

    This Morning, before we go, we want to give our Offering. And I want you to know that the hand of the Giver is always on Top.

    I want you to give to the Almighty God what He will See, when He will Visit you and He will do something with it.

    I want you to dance before the Almighty God; and I want you to move around, even as you Give your Offering.

    After you have dropped your Offering, Praise Him with all your Heart – Because God loves a Cheerful Giver.

    Worship Leaders – Please go ahead!

    Those of you who have just surrendered your Life to Jesus Christ, we will Pray for you first; before we Pray on the Offering and for every other Person.

    God is putting a Priority on your case this Morning – As you have Surrendered to Him Genuinely today, and you have made up your Mind to follow Him; you will discover suddenly, that everything about you is taken over by Him – Amen.

    PRAYER FOR SALVATION

    Precious Father, we want to Thank You for these Your Beloved Children who have come unto You to follow You.

    My Lord and my God, we ask Oh LORD, even as they open their Hearts to You today:

    You would come in; You would save their Souls, You would deliver them from every form of sins, in the Name of Jesus.

    We ask Oh LORD, as they confess You with their mouth today; we ask King of Glory that everything about them, You would take it over, in the Name of Jesus.

    You would write their names in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

    And Beginning from now, my Father and my God, they shall be Your Children in Truth and in deeds, in the Name of Jesus.

    Thank You Heavenly Father. Blessed be Your Name.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we Pray – Amen.

    Let your Amen be louder – Amen!

    Congratulations to all of you who have just Surrendered your Life to Jesus Christ.

    Our father-in-the-Lord has Promised to be Praying for you from now on, by the Grace of God.

    So he would like to have your names, your Address and your Prayer Requests.

    God Bless You!

    Hallelujah – Glory to God.

    SPECIAL PRAYER REQUEST

    There are some of us here, or reading now on the Label of DMC: who are in need of Special Prayer.

    You believe that when you come to this Altar, and you are Prayed for; the Lord will touch your situation and you believe that the Lord will release your Miracle to you.

    If you are one of the People who needs Special Prayers, kindly come to the Altar now, so we can Pray with you.

    And after we have Prayed, you will come back and share your Testimonies very soon – Amen.

    Thank You Father.

    Begin to ask the Almighty God that which you want Him to do for you.

    • Remember: Bartimaeus “Heard” what Jesus can do.
    • Bartimaeus “Cried” unto Jesus
    • Bartimaeus “Received” from Jesus.

    You are the next in line this Morning – Cry to Him, ask Him in specific terms what you want Him to do for you.

    Thank You Heavenly Father. Blessed be Your Holy Name.

    Wherever you are hearing me right now or reading this Message now on the Label of DMC, Stretch your hands in front of you:

    I have shared a Testimony with you from this Altar before; of a Man who came to us for Prayer. And he said: in this Country, I know someone who can help me and Change my situation.

    But each time I go to him, he would just tell begin to tell me Stories and say, “Oh one day, I will attend to your case.”

    So we Prayed on his hands. And we asked him to go back to this friend of his and He went back.

    And when he told him exactly what he needed, his friend asked him, “How much do you need for this Business?” He mentioned it. And his friend said, “That amount cannot do this Particular Business; I will double it.”

    And He brought out his Cheque Book and wrote a Cheque – And that wiped out his Poverty one time!

    As we Pray on your hands today, God will locate you with your Helpers – Amen!

    CLOSING PRAYER

    Father, in the Name of Jesus; Your Children have come unto You Today.

    You are the One we cry unto: You are the One who can deal with our situations; and You are the One who can answer Prayers.

    Even as we Stretch our hands unto You this Morning: my Father, touch our hands in the Name of Jesus.

    My Father, raise Help for us in the Name of Jesus.

    My Father, wipe out every Impossibilities in the Name of Jesus.

    My Father, Bartimaeus cried to You when He heard that You are the One Passing by;

    We know You are the One who has come our way Today.

    Bartimaeus cried unto You for Mercy, You heard him and he received.

    Father, show us Mercy today in the Name of Jesus.

    My Father, as those who encountered You in the Bible, received answers to their Petitions: Heavenly Father, release Answers to our Petitions Today.

    We ask Oh GOD, even as we have come to You with all our Hearts today:

    We Pray, that which You alone can do concerning our Prosperity, do for us in the Name of Jesus.

    Thank You Heavenly Father!

    When others are saying there is a casting down, we shall say there is a Lifting Up.

    Thank You Daddy.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we Pray – Amen.

  • DIVINE REPOSITIONING: PASTOR E.A ODEYEMI – RCCG DIVINE ENCOUNTER SERVICE, 4TH DECEMBER, 2023.

    DIVINE REPOSITIONING: PASTOR E.A ODEYEMI – RCCG DIVINE ENCOUNTER SERVICE, 4TH DECEMBER, 2023.

    RCCG DECEMBER 2023 DIVINE ENCOUNTER SERVICE

    THEME: DIVINE REPOSITIONING

    MINISTERING: PASTOR E.A ODEYEMI (ASSISTANT GENERAL OVERSEER (EDUCATION AND TRAINING) / NORTHERN NIGERIA AND CONTINENTAL OVERSEER CONTINENT 2 (WEST. AND CENTRAL AFRICAN REGION, RCCG).

    DATE: 4TH DECEMBER 2023

    BIBLE TEXT: 1 CHRONICLES 4:9-10

    Let the Living shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

    I am talking about someone who is convinced beyond reasonable doubts, that before this week runs out, he or she would have experienced Divine Repositioning.

    If you are such a Person, shout a better Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

    GENERAL PRAYERS

    1. God has been so Good to us from January all the way to December – We have been coming for Divine Encounter: we were here for the first Divine Encounter of the Year 2023 and now the last Divine Encounter for the year you are Present.

    Why don’t you just go ahead and give Him Glory – Just appreciate Him and Honour Him. Appreciate the Lord that sits on the Throne forever.

    The Lord Himself who has made it Possible for us to gather together again. The Bible says, it is a Good thing to give Thanks to the Lord and to sing Praises unto the Most High.

    Thank You Heavenly Father. In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Worshipped – Amen.

    1. Without any doubt, we know that our Theme for the rest of this Particular week is the Divine Repositioning. And in this Divine Encounter, we would be examining this same Theme.

    I want to to cry to God with your own voice – I want you to cry to the God of Heaven: You are the Only One who can Reposition me – Reposition my Situation and Family; Lord, before this week is over, grant me a Divine Repositioning.

    Cry to Him!

    Thank You Father. Blessed be Your Holy Name.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

    SONG

    You are Yahweh eeeh
    You are Yahweh.
    You are Yahweh eeeh
    You are Yahweh.
    You are Yahweh – Alpha, Omega,
    You are Yahweh – Alpha, Omega.

    OPENING PRAYER

    Glorious God, we Worship You this Morning. We Thank You for all that You have done in our lives from January all the way till now.

    We appreciate You, because without any doubt it has been You and only You. Father, accept our Thanks and Praises, in the Name of Jesus.

    We have come this Last Divine Encounter of the year (2023); You have been with us O LORD, from the first one to this Last one – At every Point in time, whenever we come, we have always received an Encounter from You.

    Therefore, Heavenly Father, today again we have come O LORD, that we may encounter You in the Name of Jesus.

    Our Father, Specifically we are asking today O LORD, because of this week of Divine Repositioning, we Pray Daddy that everyone of us shall experience Divine Repositioning, in the Name of Jesus.

    Thank You for the answered Prayers. Blessed be Your Name O GOD.

    We ask that those who are still on the way, You will quicken here their steps. And at the end of everything, Your Name will be Exalted.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

    And everybody would say – Amen!

    Let somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

    It might be a Good idea for you to shake hands with one (1) or two (2) People and Rejoice with them as they Rejoice with you.

    Tell them – Congratulations, that you made it to this Point. We have made it together – We are in December.

    All Glory to His Name – Hallelujah.

    Glory be to God!

    I want to begin by thanking our father-in-the-Lord, for giving us this Unique Privilege to bring the Word in the Last Divine Encounter of the year 2023;

    And the very first day of RCCG Holy Ghost Congress 2023 – “Divine Repositioning.”

    We Pray the Lord will Strengthen our Daddy and Mummy all the days of their lives.

    As the Lord has used them all these years to lead us in this Particular Path, the Lord will continue to lift them, in the Name of Jesus.

    I am sure without any doubt that Somebody is expecting a touch this Morning – Yes, for the DMC Family Members.

    I like you to open your Bible with me to 1 Chronicles 4:9-10:

    9 And Jabez was more honourable than his Brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow.

    10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

    You are the next in line that God will grant his/her Request – Amen!

    … Let your Amen be very loud – Amen!

    This is a very familiar Story – Only two (2) Verses of the Bible, and hundreds and thousands of Sermons have been Preached from it.

    Because, there is the Story of a man that begins with the conclusion – “… And Jabez was more honourable than his Brethren.”

    When I read this Passage, I began to wonder, “why is it that the Conclusion was the first thing that came forth?”

    It might be that the Narrator was of the opinion that, “if I don’t put something beautiful in front of this name (Jabez) maybe Nobody would read his Story.”

    Why? Because his Story was very tragic – His Story began in a very Low Estate. But before he left this Earth, he has become an Icon.

    I have Good News for someone who is listening this Morning or reading now on the Label of DMC; it doesn’t matter the Level you are today, your Level is Changing – Amen.

    This is the Story of someone that you can describe as – From rags to Riches; from grass to Grace; from tragic beginning to a Happy Ending; from ashes to Beauty; from mere Story to Glory!

    Somebody said, “It is only my Glory that you see, you don’t know my Story.”

    This individual (Jabez) had a Story behind his Glory – His name was not a very suitable one to bear. The Bible tells us: “and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow.”

    … That name actually mean – Pain, Sorrow, Comfortless.

    A woman carried a child for nine (9) Months, and for every single day of those nine (9) Months, the only thing that occurred to her was, “what kind of a child is this? – The is a child of sorrow, he is a child of Pain.”

    Before he came forth at all,he had, had a label upon his Life.

    Every evil Label that the enemy had Placed upon your Life, we erase it today, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

    The Story of Jabez had been:

    • A Story that People have read for Centuries – For several years.
    • It is a Story that has encouraged a lot of hearts.
    • It is a Story that shows, “it is not how you began that matters, but how you will end.”

    … And you will end well – Amen.

    The Bible tells us here, when talking about Jabez in 2 Chronicles 4:10 – that is something very crucial this week:

    And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me!

    The man (Jabez) Prayed a very Plain Prayer, and a very Powerful Prayer – A Prayer that was clear and Pointed: O LORD, what I desire from You is blessing. But not Ordinary Blessing, I want You to Bless me indeed.

    … The kind of Blessing that attracts attention.

    That is the kind of Blessing the Lord will give someone here today, or reading now on the Label of DMC – Amen.

    He said, Lord I am aware without any doubt that I will die unsung – He said, O LORD, You are the Only One who can Reposition me.

    He called on the God of Israel.

    I am sure he must have tried other options in Life; he must have received hither and thither, he must have looked up to People, he must have attempted to connect himself with those that can help.

    But everyone of them disappointed him: Until one day, when all of a sudden it occurred to him, “if God does not help me, I am done for.” And he turned to God.

    I believe that you have come here today, or reading now on the Label of DMC, because you have decided to turn to God.

    I don’t know exactly all that you have tried, I don’t know who you have tried to connect with, I don’t know those who have disappointed you; as you are Presenting yourself to the God of Israel; the God that Jabez called upon (who answered him); the God who Repositioned Jabez – that same God will surprise you today – Amen.

    This very week:

    • You must Pray until something happens.
    • You must Pray until you know: Ha! At last I have Encountered God.”
    • You must not come to the Redemption City this week (of the Holy Ghost Congress) to Play or just for Sightseeing. Just to walk around.

    No! This is one week that will determine the future you will have.

    That is the reason why, if you are Monitoring this Particular Program Online, it is in your best interest to attend the Holy Ghost Congress 2023 of “Divine Repositioning”.

    If there is anything that any Nigerian needs at this Point in time, it is a Divine Repositioning.

    I like you t turn to your Neighbour on your Right and on your Left and tell them: I know you need Divine Repositioning.

    Hallelujah!

    There are Three (3) Things I am going to look at briefly, before we are done:

    1. NAMES ARE PROPHETIC

    His name was called Jabez, his name was called pain, sorrow, comfortless. And anytime anybody hears that name, they run from him.

    That Particular name Precedes him wherever he goes.

    It is a Prophesy (Negative one) upon his Life. Because his mother had already decided, “this is what you are going to be for the rest of your Life (Jabez).”

    Several times when I think of this young man, I look at it: assuming that he was able to go to School, there is no way he would have completed Schooling because when they should ask of his name and he says ‘Jabez’; even the Teachers would have resisted him.

    The Teacher would not want someone with that name to remain in his/her class. Not to talk of the students.

    So, he would have grown up without the appropriate Education to meet his Needs in Life.

    He would have grown up without friends, without companions – Everybody would avoided his Presence.

    Rejection was a way of Life for him.

    I don’t know what has happened in your Life and you have been rejected; that Particular Spirit of Rejection is leaving you today – Amen.

    … Let your Amen be louder – Amen!

    Many People are down today because of Rejection.

    Many of us have written ourselves off, because of Rejection.

    Talk of someone who knew Rejection; someone that Rejection was written upon his face clearly; yet he made it!

    The Life of Jabez is a Message to everyone who is facing Rejection.

    It doesn’t matter who has rejected you or where you have been rejected; you can still reach the Top – Amen.

    Tell your neighbour: I will reach the Top – Amen!

    … Names are Prophetic!

    So, when you look at the name of someone like Moses, you would know that names are Prophetic.

    According to Exodus 2:10, the Bible says: And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.

    And all the days of his Life, Moses had to deal with being “drawn out of the water.”

    I. River Nile could have drown him, but he was drawn out of it.

    II. Red Sea could have drown him, but God drew him out of it.

    III. When there was no water, the People wanted to stone him. But God drew him out by bringing water out of the Rock.

    IV. When the enemy contended for his body and said, “you cannot make it to Heaven.” God stood up for him and drew him out of that difficulty.

    Whatever it is that you are confronting today, God will draw you out – Amen.

    Names are Prophetic!

    I don’t know what your name has brought into your Life; I don’t know the kind of envy, jealousy, hatred, opposition and resistance that your name has brought into your Life; I don’t know the kind of barriers that your name has created for you but because you are here today or reading now on the Label of DMC, the God of Divine Repositioning shall Reposition you, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.

    1. NAMES BRING PERSPECTIVES

    I also discovered from the Word of God that names bring certain Perspectives into our lives – How People will relate with us.

    The moment they hear your name, they have a face idea of who you are and how they will relate with you.

    That is why anytime we talk about Bartimaeus, we Picture him as that blind man by the roadside who will die a beggar.

    Even after his eyes have been opened, People still refer to him as Blind Bartimaeus – Perspective!

    I don’t know what kind of Perspective your name has introduced to your Life; whatever Negative Perspective that your name has introduced, today whether the world likes it or not, they will Change their Perspectives – Amen.

    1. NAMES ESTABLISH PROTOCOLS

    Name also establishes Protocol upon your Life – whether you would be Classified with the Best or you would be categorised with the rest: your name will determine.

    You know very well, the moment Mordecai was lifted up, his situation Changed.

    It was just like every other day; Mordecai was confronting death. There was a very Powerful individual who had decided to end the Life of Mordecai.

    And may I tell you – The only One who is Powerful is the Almighty God. And it doesn’t matter what those ‘Powerful’ People have determined to do with your Life, they will be disappointed – Amen.

    This Particular Testimony I am about to tell you is a very frightening one:

    I was visiting one of our Churches when I was in Plateau State (Northern Nigeria). The Church was far away from Jos and we must have travelled for about two (2) hours Plus.

    When I got there, I discovered that these People are doing a fantastic job. I told them, by now you should be on your Permanent Site: why are you not on your Permanent Site?

    They said, we have a Permanent Site but someone who is Powerful in this Town has been resisting us. And he has said that we are not going to build a Church on that Particular Place. But we are going to move there very soon.

    They said, that man said as long as he is alive, we cannot build a Church there.

    And the God of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) wanted to show him who is Powerful.

    One day he was returning to his house – Just few meters to that Particular Land, his Vehicle began to somersault. And it somersaulted until it landed on that Land and he died there.

    The only One who is Powerful is my God – That is the God that Jabez turned to.

    The Bible says he called upon the God of Israel – He had realised, that Power belongs to God.

    And when he called on the One who Possesses all Power, that God responded, and Translated him; Repositioned him – Took him from the very Low and took him to the very High.

    For someone who is listening to me or reading now on the Label of DMC; that same God is here. And where you are today will be the Least Place you will ever be – Amen.

    Don’t let me forget the Story of Mordecai – Haman had already concluded: As far as Haman is concerned, “Mordecai, you are finished!” He had even put up a gallow upon which he will hand Mordecai.

    He woke up that day to go to the King and ask him to grant him the Permission to hang Mordecai because he (Haman) was already famous, and very Powerful. He was the Second in Command in the kingdom and whatever he wanted he could get it done.

    … He had forgotten that Power belongs to God!

    And on that day (Overnight); the King could not sleep.

    You see, when it comes to the issue of Divine Repositioning, whatever God has to do to ensure that you are Repositioned, He will do it – Amen!

    Throughout the Night, the King couldn’t sleep. He said, Okay! Bring me the Book of Records (Esther 6).

    The Bible said, they were reading it and it got to the Point when they read about a kind of coup that would have taken Place and that could have taken the Life of the King.

    And they mentioned that the man who didn’t allow that to happen was called Mordecai.

    And the King asked, “what have we done for Mordecai?” They said, Nothing!

    On the day of your Reward and Repositioning, the Person who will cause your Repositioning will not be able to sleep – Amen.

    Then all of a sudden the King asked, “who is there in the Court?” – He knew there must be one of his Counsellors around. And it happened that Haman, his Second in Command just arrived in the Palace.

    He said, Oh! Very Good: he is the one we really need at this Point (even though he didn’t know the Plans of Haman).

    So Haman came in, he greeted the King. And the King said, “what do you think we should do for the man that the King is Pleased with?”

    And then Haman wrote a Recommendation:

    You can imagine that God has a sense of humor – Using your Adversary to write your Recommendation.

    He wrote a Powerful Recommendation because he thought he was the one.

    He wrote the kind of Recommendation you would Present anywhere and Nobody would resist you.

    And the King said, “go ahead and do exactly all you have said for Mordecai.”

    Let somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

    From that moment onwards, the name of Mordecai Changed – His name established Protocol for him.

    He wasn’t just ‘that Gateman’ again; he is now Classified as one of the Topmost People in the Kingdom.

    And before that day was over, Haman had become something else – He got home, his wife said, “if you have started to fall before Mordecai the Jew, you will eventually fall completely.”

    Everyone who has been resisting you from January till now; who has said there is no way for you – I decree upon your Life, they shall all become History – Amen.

    Let your Amen be louder – Amen!

    So you must always remember:

    • Your Name can be Prophetic.
    • Your Name can bring Perspective.
    • Your Name can Establish Protocol.

    If your Name has not been a Good Prophecy, what do you do?

    You can go to the One who can Change Bad Prophecies to Good ones; the One who can Prophesy Good Things to your Life.

    The One that Jabez ran to, because he knew: “You are the One who sent me to the world – My mother was just a means of transportation; You are the One who sent me here.

    If the fellow that You sent me to has given me a bad name, You are the Only One who can Change it – Please, Change this Prophecy O LORD.”

    He cried to the God of Israel – I don’t know how many hours, how many days, weeks or months but he kept seeking God until he found Him.

    If you seek Him, you will find Him.

    You must always remember that names can bring Perspectives:

    Several times when you move around and People begin to say one thing or the other about you, it is because of the Perspective they have had – They have posted you to a certain Place.

    Even the People who have never worked with you begin to have wrong impression about you because they have heard Stories (Negative Perspectives).

    The People you have not offended, they begin to pick offences, because of Perspectives – Because some People have already spread all kinds of lies and deformation about you.

    I have Good News for you: you don’t need to lose your Sleep about that – Because in the Presence of those who have given Negative Perspectives concerning you, the Lord will Elevate you – Amen.

    You must not forget that name can Establish Protocol:

    Maybe you have been at the backend all these while – All your Life you have been always towards the back. But as you begin to Pray today and you Pray throughout this Particular week; before this week is over you will suddenly discover that you have moved several steps above – Amen!

    … So shall it be for you – Amen.

    As God helped Mordecai, Moses, Esther and several other People in the Word of God; because He remains the same Yesterday, Today and for ever, that same God will also.help you – Amen.

    But the Key remains one thing – “Jabez called on the God of Israel”.

    You have heard several Testimonies of what God can do on this Particular Camp Ground – Time and Time again, People have come out to Testify of what God has done here.

    You have heard the Testimony of a woman that the Doctors have told, “just go to your Country and die”. And the woman said, “take me back to Nigeria, to the Redemption Camp”.

    They told the woman, “Mama, there is no Service today.” She said: I am not going for Service, I am not looking for any Pastor. I am going to the God of that Particular Land.

    She came and held on to the Pillar of this Auditorium and immediately, Strength came upon her.

    It doesn’t matter the Negative situation you have brought today, or as you are reading now on the Label of DMC:; the Almighty God will Change the Story – Amen.

    But you must be Prepared to Pray, and to Pray through. Because anybody who wants the kind of blessing that Jabez was asking for cannot Pray “Casual Prayers”.

    He said, O LORD: I want You to bless me – But not Ordinary Blessing, bless me Indeed!”

    He Prayed until his Prayer drew attention.

    He cried until the God of Heaven answered him.

    Bartimaeus did not stop crying despite the Multitude were against him but he cried until Jesus stopped.

    Your cry must arrest the attention of Heaven today.

    As we shall be going to the Place of Prayer, you need to understand one very important fact:

    You need to understand that everything is about God.

    Jabez called on the God of Israel.

    He is the One you have come to meet today – That is the reason why before He can Reposition you, you must willingly Surrender your Life to Him.

    You have been going helter skelter, going from one Place to the other, seeking for Solution.

    But you are not seeking for the Solution Provider. Your Solution is a Person – His Name is Jesus Christ.

    When you willingly Surrender to Him today, it does not cost Him Minutes before He lifts you up.

    Shall we rise on our feet everybody?

    GENERAL PRAYERS

    1. And I want you to begin to give Glory to God, that He has brought you here today.

    For what He is about to do in your Life at this time; I want you to begin to give Glory to God.

    ALTAR CALL

    Wherever you are listening to us around the world or reading now on the Label of DMC, and you want to Surrender your Life to the Lord Jesus Christ; the God of Israel – The One who helped Jabez. I want you to do so now.

    Because we are about to Pray some Life-Changing Prayers, that would Change our situations.

    Thank You Jesus. Blessed be Your Name. In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

    God bless you Brethren; I will be Praying for you the moment we finish Praying these Prayers;

    PRAYER FOR SALVATION

    My Father, I want to Thank You Lord for what You have done for us today.

    Thank You Lord for the Power that is in Your Word.

    Thank You for these Your children who have Genuinely Surrendered to Jesus Christ today.

    Father Lord, accept our Thanks, in the Precious Name of Jesus.

    Blessed Father, we commit them into Your Mighty Hands. You are the One who has brought them.

    No man can come unto You except You have drawn him.

    So Father, we call upon You today, that You would recover them, in the Name of Jesus.

    The Power to live without sin; the Power to serve You for the rest of their lives; Father, You would release upon them in the Name of Jesus.

    We ask my Father and my Lord, that You would write their names in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

    That beginning from now, they will follow after You all the days of their lives.

    They will be Your Children – Your sons and daughters, in the Name of Jesus.

    Thank You Heavenly Father. Blessed be Your Name.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we Pray – Amen.

    Congratulations!

    Our father-in-the-Lord would like to be Praying for you. And very soon you will begin to receive Miracles that you did not Pray for. So he needs your names and your correct Addresses.

    … If you are clapping to the Lord Please, do it very well.

    Glory be to God!

    THANKSGIVING OFERING

    Brethren, God has brought you at such a time like this. And in this first Service of this week of the Holy Ghost Congress, it is Good to show to the Lord that you have been Repositioned.

    How do you do that? Apart from your Prayers, you have to give your Offering and give it Abundantly.

    It is time to give our Offering.

    The Choir would give us danceable songs, and we would drop our Offering in the nearest basket (online) very quickly.

    And after that, we would Pray for us, and then you can go ahead and be in Expectation of your Divine Repositioning.

    Choir!

    Hallelujah!

    SPECIAL PRAYER REQUEST FOR DIVINE ENCOUNTER

    I know there may be some of us who need Special Prayers. And I know that you are Prepared to cry to the Almighty God at this Altar of Grace.

    So, just come forward to the Altar – Pour out your heart to Him. Tell Him those things you want Him to do; that you know only Him can do.

    Cry to the One who answered Jabez.

    In every areas of our lives, where we need Your touch and we need an Encounter with You;

    In every areas of our lives where the world has already put us down; where disfavour has already put us at the backside; where all kinds of Negative Perspectives have tied us down:

    My Father, move in our behalf, in the Name of Jesus.

    The God of Divine Repositioning, You helped Jabez and he has become a Testimony and a Household name for Centuries, for Millennium;

    My Father, help us also, in the Name of Jesus.

    We ask King of Glory, You will arise on our behalf, that very soon we also shall become Testimonies.

    We shall become New Persons Physically;

    We shall become New Persons Emotionally.

    It would be clear to all and sundry that You have stepped into our situation.

    Thank You Heavenly Father. Blessed be Your Name O GOD.

    In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed for – Amen.

    Just go ahead and begin to Rejoice before the Lord for what He has done for you.

    BEYOND EXPECTATIONS ( DAY 7: MORNING SESSION): PASTOR EZEKIEL A. ODEYEMI – RCCG 71ST ANNUAL CONVENTION, 13TH AUGUST, 2023.

    RCCG 71ST ANNUAL CONVENTION 2023 (DAY 7: MORNING SESSION – THANKSGIVING SERVICE)

    THEME: BEYOND EXPECTATIONS

    MINISTERING: PASTOR EZEKIEL A. ODEYEMI (AGO EDUCATION AND TRAINING/NORTHERN NIGERIA AND CONTINENTAL OVERSEER CONTINENT 2, WEST AND CENTRAL AFRICA)

    TOPIC: BEST OF THE BEST

    DATE: 13TH AUGUST 2023

    BIBLE TEXT: REVELATION 19: 7-8

    Let Somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

    And I’m talking of a Living Soul who has experienced the Presence of the Lord in a very Unique manner and in an Unprecedented way in this “Beyond Expectations Convention”.

    If you are one of such Person, arise on your feet and shout a Glorious Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

    GENERAL PRAYERS

    Let’s wave our hands to the God of Heaven and bless His Holy Name for all that He has done for us, for what He is doing right now and for what He will yet do.

    Give Him all the Glory and exalt the Name of the One that lives forever and ever.

    The Processor of the ends of the Earth, the Owner of our Life, our Shepherd, our Lover, the One who has sustained us until this Particular moment, the One who has exceeded our Expectations.

    Give Him Glory, let the Lord hear your Voice – The Lord who has shown up Mightily and Powerfully for us.

    Be Appreciative for all He has done in the Past Days – Our God has been so Good, He has visited us beyond Expectations.

    Give Him Glory, Honour and Adoration – He is Worthy of all Praises, Worship and Adoration. There is no one like Him, bless His Holy Name.

    Thank You Lord. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Worshipped – Amen!

    SONG

    Amen, Amen, Blessings and Glory
    Wisdom, Thanksgiving and
    Honour
    Power and Might be unto our God
    For ever and ever, Amen!

    OPENING PRAYER

    Eternal God, we bless Your Name today.

    The One that remains the same forever – The same Yesterday, the same Today, the same Everlasting.

    We appreciate You for all that You have done for us and we are not taking You for granted.

    We Thank You for our Morning, Afternoon and Evening; we Thank You for every Single Day of this “Exceptional Convention”.

    Accept our Thanks and Praises in the Name of Jesus.

    Heavenly Father, even as we look into Your Words this Particular Morning, Minister to us again, and Glorify Your Name alone.

    Thank You Daddy!

    In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

    Please, I will like you to shake hands with those around you and tell them – I am here to receive “The Best of the Best”.

    That is the Topic of our Message this Morning – “Best of The Best”.

    And there is Someone here today or reading now on the Label of DMC; who will receive “The Best of the Best” – Amen!

    I want to give Glory to God on behalf of our daddy and mummy for such an “Exceptional Convention” – A Convention that we don’t have words to describe!

    After we had experienced “Perfect Jubilee” (DMC NOTES: This is the Theme for The RCCG Annual Convention 2022); several of us had thought that will be the Best for quite some time.

    But this Year (2023); we know that without any doubt that we didn’t see anything Last Year (2022).

    This Year (2023) has revealed to us that the Best is yet to come!

    The Best is yet to come for daddy; the Best is yet to come for mummy.

    We Congratulate God on your behalf and we want to Thank God for keeping you and sustaining you.

    We Pray that your Strength will never reduced – Amen; and you will continue to go from Strength to Strength – Amen!

    I believed without any doubt that everyone of us who has been here since the beginning of this Convention, we have received something from God beyond all Expectations.

    We have gone through Beyond Salvation and all the way, we have reached this Particular Level that we are today.

    God without any doubt has loaded us with Blessings beyond Expectations – Amen.

    We Pray that your Blessings will abide forever in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

    Somebody ought to ask – After all that we have received, after all that has been said and done; what again do we have that could be “The Best of Best”?

    Revelation 19:7-8:

    1. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to Him: for the Marriage of the Lamb is come, and His wife hath made herself ready.
    2. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the Righteousness of Saints.

    A Day comes when we are going to give Glory to God, when we are going to have a Mighty Thanksgiving Service like we are having today for this Beyond Expectations Convention.

    The Day is coming when we are going to rejoice and be glad in Heaven – When everyone who has made it at Last, will be able to give Honour to the One who sits upon the Throne of the Universe forever and ever.

    That Day is coming and that Particular Day, you will not be found wanting in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

    The “Best of The Best” is the Marriage of the Lamb, of which you are going to be a Bride, of which Ii will be a Bride.

    And without any doubt, all of us we shall be there on that Day in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ – Amen!

    And as the Lord Jesus Christ was rounding up His Assignment here on Earth, He told His Disciples in John 14: 1-3 – He revealed to them and said: Let not your Heart be troubled, you believed in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s House are many Mansions.

    And then He revealed to them that He is going to Prepare that Place for them Himself.

    In the world here, when you really see a house that goes beyond your description, you call it a Mansion.

    But in Heaven, when we have put together all the Mansions, we call the Place a House – In my Father’s House are many Mansions.

    Because His House is so expensive that the Bible says that the Heavens of Heaven cannot contain them.

    I believed without any doubt – Anyone who is a Believer will like to visit such a Place, will like to see such a House that could house Mansions upon Mansions.

    That will be what will be our Expectations when we make Heaven at Last, when we enjoy that Particular “Best of The Best”.

    When we experienced it and it becomes a Reality in our Life, we will be able to say: It is Time to be glad and to rejoice and to give Honour to Him.

    That will be our experience in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

    WHAT SHOULD WE BE EXPECTING IN HEAVEN?

    Do you know that many People used to think that Heaven will be a very boring Place?

    Most especially whenever we hear that it is going to be for Eternity.

    Many People will say what are we going to do for Eternity? Because even here in the world, after you have lived for some decades:

    • You begin to decay.
    • You will begin to wish that you should get out of this Particular Place.

    But over there, Eternity will be Fun, Eternity will be Full of Enjoyment.

    I. In Heaven, we are going to have lots of Good Music; we are going to have Worship and Praises.

    II. In Heaven, we are going to have a lot of Noise.

    III. In Heaven, we are going to have a lot of Shouting.

    All because no boring moments in Heaven!

    The Bible tells me in Revelation 4:5 – And out of the Throne Proceeded Lightnings and Thunderings and Voices: and there were seven Lamps of Fire burning before the Throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

    … In Heaven, you will hear Lightnings, Thunderings and Voices.

    And anyone who doesn’t like Noise; Please don’t attempt to go there.

    For those of us who enjoys Noisemaking, let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

    Every Believers should be excited about Heaven!

    Our father-in-the-Lord told us years ago – He said that one day in Heaven and you will forget all the sufferings you have ever had in the world.

    On the other hand, one day in Hell, you won’t remember that you ever enjoy in the world.

    None of us will go to Hell in the Name of Jesus Christ – Amen!

    That is why Jesus Christ told some “Frightening Stories” so that it will Prepare the Heart of Men/Women for this Heaven.

    He spoke so Glowly about Heaven and He is a Preacher who Preach more about Hell because as the Creator of the Heaven and Earth and Hell and everything; He knows exactly what was there.

    The Bible says from Luke 16:23 – Jesus Christ told us the Story of a Rich Man who lifted up his eyes in Hell, who was in torment and he saw Abraham and Lazarus there with him.

    And he told Abraham – Father Abraham, have Mercy on me and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue (DMC NOTES: Luke 16: 23-24)

    … He was asking for Mercy when it was “Too Late”.

    May I tell Somebody here this Morning or reading now on the Label of DMC – The Rich Man did not go to Hell because he was rich and Lazarus didn’t go to Heaven because he was Poor!

    I will show you a Secret today – The reason why the Rich Man went to Hell and why Lazarus went to Heaven!

    Luke 12:16 – 19 – Is the Story of yet another Man.

    Just like the other one that Jesus Christ told us about – Here is a Man the Ground brought unto Plentifully.

    He was rich and had a Mighty Harvest – He has something to rejoice about.

    He had what we will called “Beyond Expectations Harvest”.

    And then, he began to think within himself – What am I going to do with all these Mighty Harvest that I had?

    Oh mine! I will Pull down my barn, I will build a Greater one. I will Store up all that I had, I will reserve something for the Future.

    And the Bible reveals to us in Verse 20 that God said unto him – Thou Fool.

    He was a Rich Man, He was a Wealthy Man but when God was about to describe him; God said that he is a Fool!

    One could be Rich and Foolish!

    And God said – This Night, thy Soul shall be required of thee; then whose shall those things be, which thou hast Provided. So is he that layeth up Treasure for himself and is not Rich towards God (DMC NOTES: Luke 12:20-21).

    A Question comes to you at this Point in Time – Are you Rich towards God?

    That is the reason why I want us to learn some certain Principles from these two (2) Personalities that we have just read about.

    Why is it that the Rich Man went to Hell and Lazarus went to Heaven?

    1. It is a Question of Priority.

    He Prioritise enjoyment and Pleasure while the other Fellow Prioritise Banking Up all his Resources in Heaven so that at the end of the day; everybody will be able to say: Oh, here comes the Richest Man; here comes the Wealthiest Fellow.

    That is what he Prioritise – He has no time to think about God.

    The Bible tells me in 1 Corinthians 15:19 – If in this Life only we have Hope in Christ, we are of all men most Miserable.

    I Pray that will not be the Pictture of your Life in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

    That is why the Bible says: Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and its Righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you (DMC NOTES: Matthew 6:33).

    You must Prioritise Heaven if you are going to make Heaven!

    “The Best of the Best” is reserved for us in Heaven – That is a Place that you can say Categorically that I have “The Best of The Best”!

    Because over there, the Streets in Heaven are Paved with Gold (DMC NOTES: Revelation 21:21)

    One of the most Wealthiest and Precious Minerals in the world is Gold – And that is what they used to Paved the Streets in Heaven.

    Over here (On Earth); whatever you reserves here will decay!

    Whatever God has given to you here in the world is to Prepare you for that Best of the Best!

    Are you Wealthy here in the world? – It is to ensure that you will have a Place in Heaven!

    Because here on Earth:

    I. Even the Money you reserved in the Bank, will loose its Value.

    II. The house you have built and you thought that your children will inherit.

    Your children will tear it apart, they will sell it and forget about it.

    III. The Clothes that you have gathered together, by the time you died, they will be Useless.

    IV. Your Wristwatches? Nobody will be interested in them because they will be Obsolete.

    What is that thing that you have that you have Prioritised above Heaven?

    You will regret that you ever put your Heart on them!

    The Best of The Best is to make Heaven.

    1. Preparation

    Are you Preparing yourself for Heaven?

    Jesus Christ made us to understand that if the Good Man of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not have suffered his house to be broken through (DMC NOTES: Luke 12:39).

    Therefore, be Ready!

    The Question comes to you today – Are you ready for Death or Rapture?

    1. Puurity

    1 John 3: 2-3 says:

    1. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as Je is.
    2. And every man that hath this Hope in him Purifieth himself, even as He is Pure.

    Are you Purifying yourself everyday?

    Remember that the Bible says: Be ye Holy as I am Holy (DMC NOTES: 1 Peter 1: 15-16).

    That is the Demand of God on those that will make Heaven!

    It is the thing that you must do on Daily basis – You watch your Life to ensure that you are Prepared!

    You might think that you will go with Rapture but Death may come knocking and then what will you do?

    And He is not going to listen to any Appeal – By that time, it will be “Too Late” to Prepare!

    1. Passion

    Are you Passionate about the things of God?

    Jesus Christ said about Himself – The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up (Psalms 69:9).

    I. He was so Passionate about the things of God – That was why He was doing the work of the Kingdom Day and Night (DMC NOTES: John 9:4):

    II. He was so Passionate that when He entered into the boat, He slept in the midst of the Storm (DMC NOTES: Matthew 8: 23-25).

    III. He was so Passionate that He forgot about food and He was Preaching the Gospel (DMC NOTES: John 4:34).

    You must Preach the Gospel while you still have your Breadth.

    You must do your best to save Souls.

    There are Lost Souls around us:

    • Our Colleagues
    • Our Friends
    • People working with us at our Place of work.
    • The Members of our families all over the Place.

    You have the Social Media to Preach the Gospel!

    Today, don’t waste any Precious moments of your Life on things that will not add Value to you in Eternity – Be Passionate about the things of God!

    Daniel 12:3 says: And they that be Wise shall Shine as the Brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to Righteousness as the Stars for ever and ever.

    1. Purposeful Living

    Are you Living a Life of Purpose?

    Are you Living for the reason Gid sent you to the world?

    Have you discovered the reason why you are here?

    Jesus Christ said in John 12:27 – Now is my Soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

    He (Jesus Christ) knew the reason why He was in the world!

    Even though, He is going to confront Suffering and Humiliation and Shame and Death; He said thar is the reason why I came into this world and I must fulfil Destiny.

    Those who will experience “Best of The Best” – They must live with a Purpose every moments of their lives!

    Are you Living with a Purpose? Or are you Living for a Post?

    That is why some Questiins are Crucial – And you must always ask yourself these three (3) Questiions as a Guide!

    Because the End comes at any Single moment – And these Questions will help you to stay focus:

    QUESTION NO 1: Why am I here?

    QUESTION NO 2: Where am I Headed?

    QUESTION NO 3: What am I Living For?

    Shall we rise on our feet as we Pray?

    ALTAR CALL

    I know that there is Someone here today or reading now on the Label of DMC – You have heard this Message and suddenly it occurred to you:

    It is Possible that I have received several things but I’m not Prepared for “The Best of The Best” .

    May I tell you – That is the reason, the very reason why God has told our father-in-the-Lord to bring forth this Topic.

    For you to be Prepared for this “Best of The Best”.

    You must however Surrender to the Only One who can take your Hand and take you into Heaven – His Name is Jesus Christ!

    Wherever you are – You want to Surrender to the Only One who will ensured that you enjoy this “Best of The Best” on the Last Day.

    Wherever you are, I will like you to come forward and Surrender to Him at this Time.

    … He is the Only one who can make you enjoy the “Best of The Best” and Nothing stands on your way.

    As you come forward, cry to the Lord Jesus Christ and say: Save my Soul, Prepare me for the “Best of The Best” don’t let me miss Heaven.

    If it is this Life alone that we have Hope, we are of all Men the most Miserable!

    Call Upon Him – Ask Him to do something New in your Life.

    Thank You Heavenly Father; Blessed be Your Name!

    PRAYER FOR SALVATION

    Precious Father, we Thank You for Your Beloved Children – Those who are here already, those who are coming on the way and those reading now on the Label of DMC.

    We ask Oh God of Heaven that as they have come to You today; You will do a New Thing in their lives in the Name of Jesus.

    Heavenly Father, we Pray that You will save their Souls and Lord, You will Prepare them to make Heaven at Last in the Name of Jesus.

    None of us will miss Heaven in the Name of Jesus.

    Precious Father, I Pray Oh Lord that as they have Surrendered to You today; everything that will Militate against their Progress, that will Militate against their making Heaven; let it Surrender Permanently in the Name of Jesus Christ.

    Thank You Heavenly Father!

    In Jesus Mighty Name we Pray – Amen!

    Now, everyone of us will Pray at this Time.

    So rise on your feet as we Pray:

    Cry to the Almighty God and say: Heavenly Father, I need “Best of The Best” – Don’t let the world take away what is “More Important” for me.

    You must Prioritise Heaven today!

    Open your mouth and cry to the Lord!!!

    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:

    1. 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.
    2. And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
    3. 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.
    4. 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.
    5. 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.
    6. 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?

    1. 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”.

    1. 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!
