   I know Your Name.

   Who is Wonder?

Repeated!

Go ahead, worship the Almighty God. Bless His Holy Name, give Him Glory, give Him Honour, give Him Adoration.

Let Him hear your Voice – Daddy I appreciate You. There’s no one like You. What a Mighty God I serve! I am Proud of You Lord. I am Proud to be one of Your Children; I am Proud to be one of Your Ministers.

I Bless Your Holy Name, I give You all Glory, I give You all Honour, I give You all Adoration. Glory, Glory, be to Your Holy Name.

Thank You Father! Blessed be Your Holy Name. In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Worshipped – Amen.

OPENING PRAYER.

Father, today we want to say Thank You – Thank You for loving us, Thank You for saving our Souls, Thank You for making us More Than Conquuerors.

Father, accept our Worship, in Jesus’ Name!

Tonight is the Last Night of this Ministers’ Conference; Father, You always reserve the best for the Last. Tonight, give us the Best.

Daddy I say Please, give us the Best!

We are hungry for You; we are thirsty for You. Please, give us the Best!

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Let somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

Shake hands with one (1) or two (2) People, say: God will surprise you tonight – Amen!

… We are going to take our Jubilee Hymn.

Let somebody shout hallelujah – Hallelujah!

I want you to join me in Praying in the Holy Spirit for few Minutes before we do the next thing that God wants us to do.

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

If any member of the Congregation is in Need, he runs to the Pastor. If the Pastor is in Need, it is absolutely Proper for him or her to run to the General Overseer.

I remembered that my Daddy (God) told me forty (40) years ago that He has made me General Overseer as a Camouflage – So, I will be the one People can see me but He will the One doing the work.

That’s when all my hair turned grey at the age of Forty (40). He told me I was carrying the burden that was not mine. That the Church belongs to Him – He can take care of His Own

That same God Who said He’s going to visit us during this 70th Anniversary of His Church, asked me to tell you that if there’s any area of your body that needs a Divine Touch, you lay your hands there and I will Decree in His Name, and you will be Healed.

I am believing Him that before Friday (12th of August, 2022); you will be Testifying – Amen.

DADDY DECREES:

And so my Father and my God, there is no way I can Thank You enough for what You have been doing for me, and doing through me!

When you Picked me up, I am fully aware that without You; I am absolutely Nothing. I knew it! Of course You know it.

But then You are Everlasting – You are the Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, the Almighty. And Your Word says we arey Treasures in Heathen Vessels.

First thing I am asking Lord tonight, in Obedience to Your Word, is that You will touch my lips afresh with Your Finger, so that as I Decree tonight, Your Fire will follow.

These are Your Children; these are my “Actual Nuclear Congregation”. And there are many of them out there wishing that, “if only the GO (General Overseer) will lay his hands on me, I will be Healed.”

But You know I don’t have that Strength and the Ability to lay hands on thousands of them.

Your Hands are Everlasting, lay Your hands on everyone of them. And everywhere in their Body Systems that needs that Divine Touch; Father, send Your Fire!

Every sickness, disease or infirmity in the System of these Your Children, tonight let Your Fire Consume!

Tonight Father, in the lives of these Your Ministers, do the impossible, reverse the irreversible. Perform Creative Miracles.

All those who have been looking at us, saying ridiculous things, and have been mocking us saying – Look at Ministers of God; tonight, disappoint them!

Every mouth that had mocked Your Power in our lives, give them just a little spank, by Healing us Miraculously.

Before the Sun rises tomorrow, Silence all Mockers; Perform Creative Miracles.

Let Your Fire Fall! Let Your Fire Fall!! Father, let Your Fire Fall!!!

And Take all the Glory Lord! In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!!!

God bless you – Amen.

You may be seated.

… One or two things before we finally get to the Word of God.

GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS

1. I went out this Morning to Dedicate our “EXHIBITION CENTER” at the Original International Office.

… “Big Name that kills a dog.”

But it has been transformed into Exhibition Center, with Pictures of:

I. The day I was Ordained (for example).

II. The Original Microphone that I used.

III. The car my father-in-the-Lord used.

… Quite a lot of things.

So, you are welcome to see things at the Exhibition Center.

It would however not be opened until this Wednesday (10th August 2022) as they still have some more Pictures to hang to make the Place fully ready.

2. But on my way back I saw someone driving on this Camp as if he was on a Race Horse.

Please, tell your Drivers (because I know he is not the Car Owner) – If you drive above 40km per hour (40Km/Hr); you will be arrested Particularly during this Convention (RCCG 70th Annual Convention 2022).

And I will see to it that you are not released.

Why? – There are many children here, and I don’t want one crazy fellow killing anyone on this Camp Ground.

Please, let that one be made clear! – The Employer of Driver will also be arrested.

Many of you have never seen the other side of me.

So many years ago I was talking to some of my children – “Why didn’t you talk?” We are afraid of you, Sir. “Have you ever seen me angry before?” We have not seen you angry, that is why we are afraid.

How many of you would like to see me angry?

The Bible says: “Be angry but sin not.” God is Love!

Something happened years ago when we were still using the First Auditorium.

We were having a Ministers’ Conference like this one, and I said “Let nobody be late for the next Session. Don’t let me be here before you. Do you understand?” Yes Sir!

And then every other Person was seated except one fellow who happened to be my favourite MInister – He just strolled in.

As a matter of fact, he was so close to me that other Ministers send him to me whenever they needed anything.

I looked at him, I said “Oga, you are just coming?” Yes Daddy. “Did you hear what I said about coming late?” Yes Sir, but… “From this moment, you are Dismissed!”

They all thought it was a joke! He went to talk to Papa DGO (DMC NOTES: Pastor J.H Abiona, of Blessed Memory). That one told him, “with the Present Fire, I can’t help you.” He went to my wife (DMC NOTES: Pastor (Mrs) Folu Adeboye), because he knows that I won’t refuse her anything. She told him, “the way things are going, I think you should go and Prepare for your own Ministry.”

If your Speed exceed 40km per hour (40Km/Hr) on this Camp (Particularly during this RCCG Convention 2022); you will be arrested.

There are two (2) types of arrest – Physical and Spiritual – You will be arrested Physically and Spiritually.

If they kill a child of somebody who came to be blessed by one stupid fellow, what are we going to say?

“To be forewarned is to be forearmed!” – So be warned.

… That’s the tough one! The other Announcements are not.

3. I don’t want Market on the Roads. If you are caught, the goods will be confiscated.

We will send the ones that can be used in the kitchen to the kitchen, the others which cannot be used will be sent to the Motherless Babies Home.

But they will not be released to you.

I hope you are hearing oooo? Because the Elders have a saying, “Let us know our characteristics so we will not offend one another”.

4. Please, tell your children, particularly the Girls. If you dress carelessly on this Camp Ground – And I am not talking about during Convention alone but always, you will be arrested.

So, if you dress exposing your body, you will be arrested Spiritually and Physically – You are supposed to come for Jubilee; don’t go with a Curse.

And if you live on the Camp, tell your Visitors to dress Properly or else, they will not get to you!

5. As the Lord lives, from now on, every grain of sand on this Camp Ground will be Fire!!!
6. By the Grace of God, we have started Producing our Plastic Chairs.

Our own (RCCG) Chairs has our Logo on it so that no one can steal them and they are in various Colours.

We are now Producing for the 3Km by 3Km Auditorium.

A day is coming when we want to start a New Branch and you will walk away with the “Cost Price” of the Chair – And the Cost Price is far, far better.

Alright! Will somebody say: God bless the Governing Counsel.

Bible Text: Acts 2:1-4:

1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

We have been talking about Jubilee thus far; now we want to talk on PERFECT JUBILEE.

And if there is anyone here who is not here because of God, tonight the Fire of God will consume – Amen.

… Only Someone who has the Spirit of God will receive Jubilee – Amen.

Let Someone shout Fire – Fire!

When we are talking about Jubilee, the most Perfect of all Jubilee came on the Day of Pentecost.

I am believing God Who called me, the One Who has been backing me, that tonight there will be another Pentecost – Amen.

KINDS OF POWER THAT CAME ON THE DAY OF PENTECOST.

On the Day of Pentecost, Power came! Real, Raw Power of God came on the Day of Pentecost because Jesus had Promised in Acts 1:8:

But ye shall receive Power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be Witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the Uttermost Part of the Earth.

And you remembered, one of the things God Promised us in Jeremiah 29:10 – “For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon, I will visit you, and Perform my Good Word toward you, in causing you to return to this Place.”

What kind of Power came on the Day of Pentecost?

1. The Power to do the Impossible cannot be resisted.

Why? In Genesis 11:1-6; after the flood of course, Human Beings became Wise: And they said, Go, let us build us a City and a Tower, whose Top may reach unto Heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole Earth.

And the Bible says in Genesis 11:6, And the LORD said, Behold, the People is one, and they have all one Language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

That’s is why, whether the devil likes it or not, The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) will be United – Amen.

Anyone who tries to bring disunity in The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), the Fire of God will consume – Amen.

Whether I am still living or dead because sooner or later somebody else will be sitting on my Chair; Somebody else will be the New General Overseer. That’s for sure!

And you know what? I don’t know the fellow but he is going to be a Young Man – You can take my word for it!

If God reveals the fellow and He says I should Present him, he will be brought here to Teach us; while my wife and myself will sit and listen to him.

If anyone tries to bring disunity to The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), the Owner of the Church will consume – Amen.

Some People have tried it; through Tribalism and “Plannism’” – Whatever that means!

There are many of you who are Senior Pastors here. Have I ever asked you (unless jokingly) where you were born? – I don’t know your Village.

Why? That is not my business! We are all Citizens of Heaven; we are all children of the Same Father.

I remembered when Pastor Dare Adeboye (of Blessed Memory) came to me and said: “Dad, I want to go into Full-Time.” I said are you sure that’s what you want to do? He said Yes Sir!

… Probably, he thought he would be sent to Birmingham where he was based.

I said very Good! You are welcome. You will be based in Kaduna. At that time, Kaduna was the hot spot of Islamic activities.

And People were asking: How can you send your son to Kaduna? “What do you mean? All of you are my children (whether Spiritual or Biological).

And I remembered very well, I got a Phone Call from him one night – Dad, they are coming to my house. And my Security has ran away! Probably he went to tell them.”

I asked him, “why are you calling me? Can’t you Pray? This is no time to talk.” He said, I have been Praying. And immediately, I heard him Praying in the Spirit.

… Two (2) houses from where he was living, the Terrorist turned back – Hallelujah.

And the LORD said, Behold, the People is one, and they have all one Language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do – Genesis 11:6

The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) will be United – Amen.

… Let your Amen be loud and clear – AMEN.

2. On the Day of Pentecost, we got a demonstration of the Power of Unity.

What we lost at the Tower of Babel, we regained on the Day of Pentecost. Because on the Day of Pentecost there were different Tongues after they received the Fire.

Acts 2:7 says: And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?

What was lost at Calvary was regained at Pentecost! – Jubilee means Restoration.

3. And then, the Power that came down on the Day of Pentecost brought Divine Advertisement.

Acts 2:6 says: Now when this was noised abroad, the Multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own Language.

There are no affluent distributor, there was no Advertisement on Radio or Television but the People came!

There will be another Pentecost tonight (or as you read on the Label of DMC); and you will not need Advertisement – Amen.

When we started the Holy Ghost Service (HGS); we were not many. But as Miracles happened, People tell their friends; some even park their cars, get out and run inside. And that caused a lot of traffic on the Expressway.

Then one big Muslim said that they will shut down the Redemption Camp and it became News! The Federal Minister of Works came to see, the Television People followed him and that was how we got Free Advertisment (Laughter).

He came, saw and joined to shout Hallelujah! And that was how the Holy Ghost Service (HGS) exploded.

Tonight the Power of God will fall and God will Advertise you – Amen.

4. When the Day of Pentecost came, it brought down Power that can Fulfill Destiny and Divine Promises.

Example of Peter quickly – God has Promised Peter that He will make him a Fisher of Men (Luke 5:1-11). Years passed, he didn’t catch a Single fish (Men).

After the Day of Pentecost, Peter Preached a Single Sermon, and he caught three thousand (3,000) Souls.

Everything that has been hindering you from fulfilling Destiny, Fire will consume them today – Amen.

5. When the Day of Pentecost came, it released a Season of Miracles.

Acts 5:12 says: And by the hands of the Apostles were many Signs and Wonders wrought among the People; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s Porch.

If only you can believe God, after this Conference, in all your Churches; Signs, Wonders, Miracles will be happening every week – Amen.

6. When the Day of Pentecost came, it brought Power that leads to Accelerated Promotion.

Acts 5:13 says: And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the People Magnified them.

Do you know that all it takes for everybody in your City to begin to treat you with Great respect is in: Miracle, Signs and Wonders?

They will see you coming and they will begin to use the “Original Reference” because they know you are carrying Power.

From now on even as you read on the Label of DMC; you will cease to be an Ordinary Ministers – Amen.

7. When the Day of Pentecost came, it brought Power that led to Great and Rapid Growth.

Acts 5:14 says: And Believers were the more added to the Lord, Multitudes both of men and women.

So you know there was a time on The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), on the Camp here, when the Ushers would count the People that attended our Programs and they will say, last week we are six hundred (600); this Month we are six hundred and sixty (660).

But then, because of the Power of the Holy Spirit, I am sure it is not easy for the Ushers to count us now.

But we haven’t seen anything yet. It’s not just here alone, but it will happen in all your Churches – Amen.

… If I were you, I will say Amen – Amen.

Because nothing kills a Pastor like Fasting and Praying and then the Church remain the same old faces.

I declare tonight or as you read now on the Label of DMC; before this time Next Year (2023), you will need to expand your Churches – Amen.

8. When the Day of Pentecost came, Power fell and Uncommon Miracles began to happen.

Acts 5:15-16 says: Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the Streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the Shadow of Peter Passing by might overshadow some of them. There came also a Multitude out of the Cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with Unclean Spirits: and they were healed every one.

As soon as I read that Passage when I just became Born Again; I sat down – Peter, born of a man and a woman and not by an Angel.

Peter, a Human Being with the weakness of the flesh; who sank while walking on water because of fear; Peter who denied Jesus three (3) times; his Shadow is now Healing the sick?

I said to my Daddy in Heaven – Daddy I have read it in Your Word, that You are no respecter of Person. What you have done for Peter, You must do the same for me.

How many of you want God to turn you into Flames of Fire? – The DMC FAMILY MEMBERS!!!

… Let me hear you shout Fire – Fire!!!

9. When the Day of Pentecost came, it brought down Power that led to Jubilation.

This morning I am sure you watched the August 2022 Thanksgiving Service at Ebute Meta with the Theme: Season of Jubilation? – You can read full Text of that Message on the Label of DMC.

Acts 8:5-9 says: Then Philip went down to the City of Samaria, and Preached Christ unto them. And the People with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the Miracles which he did. For Unclean Spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were Possessed with them: and many taken with Palsies, and that were lame, were healed. And there was great Joy in that City.

It was an ‘Ordinary Deacon” that went to Samaria – The only Qualification he had was that “he was full of the Holy Spirit.” And he brought Joy to a whole City. A Deacon, not an Apostle.

Very soon, because of you, there will be Joy in your City – Amen!

I just observed something – Do you know that majority of the People who said Amen are Young Adults?

Don’t worry, the Elders also will have a New Beginning – Amen!

10. When the Day of Pentecost came, Mighty Gifts of the Holy Spirit came.

1 Corinthians 12:31 says: But covet earnestly the Best Gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more Excellent way.

You are Permitted to be covetous when it comes to the Gifts of the Holy Spirit.

When it is time to Pray, I believe it will be alright to Pray that your entire Body will become a flaming touch of the Holy Spirit.

I have told some of you who are fairly old, of the kind of hunger for the Holy Spirit that we had when we were Young in Faith and how God granted our request.

Because Matthew 5:6 says: Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after Righteousness: for they shall be filled.

There is a Story of some Young School boys who always go for Evangelism in a remote Village, where they spent days, sleeping in Classrooms.

Whether you believed it or not, when we wanted to Plant a Parish at Otukpo (Benue State) – My wife, Pastor Ilori, Pastor Kuo, we slept with mat on the floor. We were so tired, we didn’t even care!

But one of the Products of that visit is Dr. Paul Enenche – And the last time I was at Otukpo (Benue State); he brought a brand new Rolls Royce that Nobody have entered and said, “this is how I want to Thank You!” And this time, we slept in his house. It wasn’t a bad house at all.

Yesterday, I was talking about “Self Sacrifice” – God never forgets. He knows your Labour of Love and He will always Reward you accordingly.

Anyway! These Young Students who went on Village Evangelism, sleep in Classrooms with Mosquito bites. They were busy beating themselves because of Mosquitoes and one fellow amongst them remained calm.

“Are the Mosquitoes not biting you?” He asked, me? Yes, you! He rolled up his sleeve, stretch his hand, Mosquitoes, I’m for you all over. And within Seconds, they were dropping down dead – FIRE!!!

… Let somebody shout Fire – Fire!!!

One more thing: I just want you to know, what was and what can be again, because this is the Year of Perfect Jubilee.

A Man of God was sitting quietly in a Classroom, waiting to start a Bible Study. And a Lady went behind, grabbed his head and said “I claim you as my husband.”

The Next thing that happened, there was a shout outside the Classroom – The Power of God Picked up the woman and threw her out of the window.

Do you want Power? Do you want Fire? And I mean the real thing. Because, once upon a time when the Pentecostals are Praying, the devil is frightened. Now you Pray Ladies and Gentlemen Prayer. And you don’t even say Amen when we make Decrees.

Many times I hear People say, shout a louder Amen! I say wait a Minute, they haven’t said a loud Amen, it’s a louder one.

Alright, I will be failing you as your Dad and as a True Man of God, if I don’t add just one little bit.

… Fire is going to fall tonight – Amen.

Power can be dangerous if handled wrongly.

If you handle Power wrongly, it can kill.

I mean, that should be easy to understand.

Look at Electricity – Anointing is like Electricity. If you mishandled naked wire you can be electrocuted.

Power can be dangerous without Self-Control.

If you have no Self Control, Power can kill you.

If you don’t believe me, ask Samson – He had Power but no Self Control (Judges 16).

And the more Power you have, the more you need Self Control.

Take Elisha for example, he has just received a Double Portion of Anointing from his Master. Apparently, he was not aware yet – 2 Kings 2:19-24.

All I have been teaching you during this Ministers’ Conference is to Prepare you for tonight because things are about to happen – Amen.

Elijah didn’t feel any different that something has happened:

And he said, bring me a new Cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him. And he went forth unto the Spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the LORD, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land – 2 Kings 2:2021.

And believe me honestly, he didn’t know what happened after that because he didn’t wait. But the People knew something had happened.

But as soon as he finished, some children began to mock him. And he turned around and cursed them in the Name of the Lord.

As soon as he spoke two (2) She bear appeared.

… I have always asked, “Were the She bear waiting or they were created by his words.”

Before you could say, Jesus is Lord! Forty two (42) Children were devoured.

It is a dangerous thing to make Decrees and they come to pass, while you use the same mouth to curse your children – “You stupid fellow.”

Don’t Decree Stupidity to your children’s Life. Be careful what you say with your mouth.

Decree Healing, Deliverance, Breakthrough, Progress – Just as I am decreeing today.

And I am Decreeing: it shall be well with you – Amen.

Your Church shall grow – Amen.

You will reach your Goal – Amen.

You need Self Disciplne – The more the Anointing, the more the need for Self Disciplne.

Acts 19:11-12 says: And God wrought Special Miracles by the hands of Paul: So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

The first time I read that Passage I said Lord: Paul was very much like me. He was rotten, You met him on the way. I was rotten You save me. He was an Academician, I too went to School.

And You are no respecter of Person. What you did for Paul, so same for me.

Now I can wave my hand at handkerchiefs and they would be used to Perform Miracles.

Paul said in 1 Corinthians 9:24-27; But I keep under my body, and bring it into Subjection: lest that by any means, when I have Preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

You must learn to control yourself. You can’t have this kind of Power and be a Man of Violent Temper.

… You will destroy many things.

You remembered the next time Elisha in
2 Kings 3:111-17 – And Elisha said unto the King of Israel, What have I to do with thee? Get thee to the Prophets of thy father, and to the Prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said unto him, Nay: for the LORD hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab.

But now bring me a Minstrel. And it came to Pass, when the Minstrel Played, that the hand of the LORD came upon him.

He had to call for a Minstrel to bring the Holy Spirit back.

You are going to Pray tonight for Sanctification, for Salvation, before you talk about the Holy Spirit.

Nowadays, we only talk about Salvation and the Baptism in the Holy Spirit but we remove Sanctification.

Salvation is basic, Holy Spirit Baptism is very Crucial but you need Sanctification

Salvation is the Foundation.

It is Possible to build like what we have here – Roof without walls, doors and windows. But you can’t be living here. You need the walls, doors, windows that will be shut at night.

You need Sanctification!

So you are going to Pray!:

I. Pray for Sanctification;

II. Ask that everything that can turn the Blessings of Jubilee in your Life to a Curse in your Life, that the Almighty God will remove it.

III. And after Praying for Sanctification, go ahead and cry to God – Daddy, I want my own Pentecost today.

I want Your Fire to fall – Let the Fire of the Holy Spirit fall on me and I want as much of it:

Go ahead Pray!

MINISTERING: PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE

DATE: 6TH AUGUST, 2022

BIBLE TEXT: JEREMIAH 29:10-11

Let us Pray!

SONG

Immortal God, Invincible God
Immortal God, How Great thou art.

The Lord of lords, The Great I Am,
Immortal God, How Great thou art.

OPENING PRAYER

Almighty God we worship Your Name. Immortal God, the Invincible God, the Only Wise God.

The One who was, the One is, the One who is to come, the Almighty.

God without Beginning, God without Ending; the Ancient of Days, the Unchangeable Changer. Glory be to Your Holy Name!

Thank You for all You have done for us today; Thank You for what You will yet do tomorrow.

Please, accept our Thanks, in Jesus’ Name.

Father, all over the World tomorrow, is Your Holy Day. As we gather together to Worship You, as we give You Thanks tomorrow, for what You have done, Please, show up in our lives, in Jesus’ Name.

And let this Night’s gathering be an extremely Glorious one for us, in Jesus’ Name.

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

Let Someone shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

Shake hands with one (1) or two (2) People and tell him or her: God will surprise you today – Amen.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

Tomorrow is Sunday (7th August, 2022) – Go and Worship in any of our Churches of your choice. There are over Thirty (30) of them here in the Redemption Camp City of God – Investigate and join one tomorrow.

There will be service here in this Auditorium tomorrow.

The Lord will meet with you and answer your Prayers by Fire – Amen.

2. Sunday afternoon is free. Spend Time Praying. And please, be seated latest 7pm because we will have to Appreciate all those who have served meritoriously.

… All these are Subject to if the Lord has not returned. If He returns we have to be ready.

If the Lord returns before tomorrow, how many will be happy to see Him?

Let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

Jeremiah 29:10-11;

10 For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.

11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Briefly speaking, Jubilee is a Signal that God has Remembered you!

And for the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), God is saying in this your Seventieth (70th) Year, I will remember you – Amen.

The Lord will remember us – Amen.

When God Remembers – Whether Organization or Individuals, dramatic Things happen:

If you read Genesis 8:1-end, the Bible tells us that God Remembered Noah.

Noah had been in the Ark for several days, in obedience to God. And he was living in the Ark with all manner of animals – Shut in, with dogs, goats, and all manner of birds.

And do you know that there was not a Water Closet (toilet) in the Ark?

So for all those days, he was living in a “Stuffy Apartment” full of odour. And he couldn’t go out because there was water everywhere.

Then God Remembered him!

When God remembers you, all your Problems within and dangers without, they will be gone – Amen.

There are Dangers Within (from the Church and Family):

• I mean, ask David: He will tell you of dangers from the Javelin of father in-law.
• Ask Joshua: he will tell you about Problem-causing Achan.

Because God is going to Remember us now, all the enemies within the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) will be consumed by Fire – Amen.

… I am going to say that again – And this time round when I say it, you are going to look to your left and look to your right and if someone is not saying Amen; he or she may be an enemy within (Laughter)!

Because God is Remembering us now, this is our Year of Jubilee – Amen.

All the enemies of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) will be consumed by Fire – Amen.

A Man of God came.to us years ago; his church just refused to grow. The Pastor came to us to join him seek the face of the Lord. Saying that, if the crowd come today, tomorrow they will be gone!

The Spirit of God Ministered to us: that every Plant God has not Planted in that Church would be Uprooted!

And by the time the Pastor got back, a very Influential woman came to him and said, “I am leaving your Church.”

Haaa! Mama, what have we done wrong? She said, “don’t beg me!”

When the enemy in your Church is leaving, nobody would be able to beg her or him – Amen.

Then, for you to enjoy the Year of Jubilee, the Enemies Without have to be dealt with also.

I don’t need to tell you this – You already know the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) is a Covenant Church.

There are those who hate us and can’t understand why the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) is enjoying the Favour of God.

They don’t know that we are enjoying under Covenant:

That what is happening is not the effort of a man; it is only God!

However, because this is our Year of Jubilee, any force that will not allow us to expand, the Fire of God will consume – Amen.

Somebody was in an Airport in Abuja, somehow another Passenger recognized him and greeted him. Then he said, you are one of those People “everywhere we go, the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) – Get away from here!”

Let me hear Somebody shout Fire – FIRE!!!

The Year of Jubilee is a Year of New Beginning.

When God remembered Abraham, all the Promises of Twenty five (25) Years was fulfilled in a Single day – Genesis 18:1-14.

Because God is going to remember us now – All the Promises He has made to our father-in-the-Lord (Pa Josiah Akindayomi) shall soon be fulfilled – Amen.

You know the story: when God told our father-in-the-Lord (Pa Josiah Akindayomi) that he would start a Church through him; and that the Church would spread throughout the whole World. That must have sounded to some People, very Strange!

To the Glory of God, the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) is gradually getting to all Nations of the world; including Ukraine.

Whether you believe it or not, the War in Ukraine is going to end – Amen.

And you know why the War has to end? Because the last time I visited Russia, we were already discussing having our Camp Ground there!

… Do you believe it’s going to come to Pass? – Yes!!!!

Every Promises that God has made concerning you, as a Member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) shall come to Pass – Amen.

Not only will they come to Pass, they will begin to come to Pass now – Amen.

Then you have to consider the case of Rachael:

Rachael was barren. And like I mentioned on Monday (1st August 2022) during the Shiloh Hour Service – (DMC NOTES: You can get to read full Text of that Message on the Label of DMC:

There are two (2) ways one could be in Bondage; because Barrenness is Bondage.

1. One could be in Bondage by he his or her own Actions:

Like in 2 Samuel 6:20-23; Michal (the wife of David) saw David Praising God. She wasn’t the one Praising Him – That’s bad enough!

But she criticised someone who was Praising God; denying God of His Praises.

God said, okay Michal, you would be in Bondage forever. You are going to die barren.

… She is the only one who was barren in the Bible. And she died barren. The only one!

2. But in the case of Rachel, she was in Bondage not as a result of her fault.

She was beautiful – Was that her fault? No!

Is it her fault that she was loved by her husband? No!

In Genesis 29:18-31, this woman (Rachel) was so beautiful, the husband said, “I will serve my father in-law for seven (7) years without a salary so that I can marry her.”

Papa Laban said, agreed!

When the time came to marry Rachel, Papa, who was the Number one (1) 419 brought in the elder sister (Leah) who was not beautiful.

I just remembered when we were Younger and we were still stupid boys (Laugher)! And we would compare our many girlfriends; gathered their Photographs and do Beauty Contest with our mouth.

We looked at their Pictures and then we begin to compare them – “Oh, this one was created on Saturday Night, when God was eager to rest: He just added some things here and there so that He could rest (Laughter)!

… I think you should Thank God for Salvation!

If you are looking for a Miracle, look at me! I was rotten, but Jesus saved me – Hallelujah!

And then we looked at the one that is very beautiful and said: Haaa! This one was created early on Monday morning – When God was still free (Laugher)!

… But that was a stupid way of deciding beauty!

So, Rachel was created on Monday morning (Laugher)!

Let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

So, Leah must have been created on Saturday Night (Laughter)!

But whether you believed it or not, our God is a God of Joy.

Beginning from now on, in the Name that is above every other names, you will be Laughing – Amen!!!

So, the father (Papa Laban) switched Leah instead of Rachel. And when the husband (Jacob) discovered the following morning, he said to his father in-law, “what have you done?

The father in-law said if you want to still marry Rachel, you will have to serve another seven (7) years.

This man (Jacob) agreed!

So, when finally he married Rachel, he hated Leah.

When God saw that the husband loved Rachael and hated Leah; He shut the womb of Rachel and opened the womb of Leah.

It was not the fault of Rachel that she was beautiful; or that she was loved by he husband.

The beautiful thing is, in the time of Jubilee whether you got into the Problem as a result of your own Action or because of the Actions of Others; you get Freedom – Amen.

So, when God remembered Rachel, He opened her Womb.

What about Joseph?

I. It was not the fault of Joseph that God gave him dreams.

II. It was not the fault to Joseph that his brother hated him and also sold him as a Slave.

III. It was not the fault of Joseph that Portiphar’s wife tempted him and he refused to compromise his own Faith. He landed in prison.

IV. It was not his fault of Joseph that even after interpreting the Dream of the Cupbearer; the Cupbearer forgot him for two (2) solid years.

But when God remembered Joseph, in less than twenty four (24) hours, he became a Prime Minister.

I have Good News for Someone today – Because this is your Year of Jubilee, God will remember you – Amen.

And then when you consider Israel.

It was not the fault of Israel that they were in bondage in Egypt.

God said to Abraham in Genesis 15:8-21 – Know of a surety that thy Seed shall be a Stranger in a Land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; … But in the fourth Generation, they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.

One way or the other, Israel got to Egypt. Joseph died; another King came, who did not know Joseph. But Israel was just Producing children like rabbit.

Exodus 1::8-8; Now there arose up a new King over Egypt, which knew not Joseph. And he said unto his People, Behold, the People of the children of Israel are more and Mightier than we:

Our God is a Covenant keeping God – Whatever He says, He will do!

And one day, in Exodus 2:13-21, God remembered His Covenant with Abraham,.

And the moment God remembered, it was only a matter of days before Israel began to move back to Freedom.

The Almighty God made certain Promises concerning the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) – He told my father-in-the-Lord, “if you will do the following, I will do the following”.

By the Grace of God, my father-in-the-Lord kept his own side of the bargain.

He is dead now, so he can’t break his own side of the bargain anymore.

And so, there is nothing else left for us to do than to watch God fulfil His own side of the bargain.

And like I told you before, when we went to Israel in 1985 for Holy Pilgrimage then, and the Ambassador invited us for dinner. And I told him “Sir, we want to establish the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) here” – he laughed!

He said haven’t you People noticed that the greatest Church in the world is in America? And they are following America. You want to start a Roman Catholic Church here? You are welcome, you want to start Anglican, Methodist, Baptist here? You are welcome!

… Pentecostal? – No way!

He said, “They say – No Pentecostal for America.” Now you want to bring a Pentecostal Church here, from Nigeria of all Places?

I said, but my own would be different.

He laughed!

But when I insisted, he said alright, what do you want me to do for you? I said, “help me submit my Application for Registration. He said, is that all? I said, that’s all Sir.

There’s no Problem!

He collected the Application from me – “It’s one thing to submit the Application, it’s another thing for the Application to be approved.”

He collected the Application from me, he submitted it. Six (6) Months later, we were registered!

Why? -It wasn’t because of me! They didn’t invite me for Interview, they didn’t ask questions. It was because we are under a Covenant!

That’s why when I hear that one fellow says he is resigning from the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) and that God has told him to start his own Ministry. I say, God have Mercy!

You want to leave? – “Nobody knows the Value of an Umbrella until it begins to rain”.

“You don’t know the Value of a Cover until it begins to rain”.

I am not saying all these to discourage you from leaving. If you want to leave come and I will Pray for you – God have Mercy!

I was in America, we came for a Ministers’ Conference like this. And I heard God said, “it is lonely outside there! It is dangerous outside there!”

… I just found myself saying it again and again.

I talked about what happens when a branch is torn away from its tree. For a while the leaves will remain green (increase). And then soon its leaves will turn yellow. Yellow is the colour of Gold.

You break away – Oh surely, the crowd will be coming. Prosperity will follow. But the Yellow leaves would soon come back (when it dries up)!

… I am not saying that to discourage anyone who wants to go.

I said that one in just a Meeting like this. After I finished the Ministers’ Conference this fellow came with a Letter of Resignation. I called him, I begged him!

He had a big Church. By the time he died, the People in the Church were, himself, his wife and his children. Out of compassion, we bore the Burial Expenses.

Don’t joke with Covenant! – Our God is a Covenant Keeping God.

He had made a Covenant with our father-in-the-Lord – He told him: Keep your own Part of the Covenant, I will keep Mine. “The Church I Am starting through you will go all round the world.”

Some People talk and they say, “Pastor Adeboye must be a Great Man of God!” But there are Places God has Planted His Church that I have never been to.

I have never been to Japan. I wanted to go in 2020, Coro said,.no way!

I have never been to Libya. I have never been to Iran. The first time I got to Papa New Guinea, eeeh! That Place is far. Even when you are flying in with your own Jet, you first get get to Australia. The Journey from Australia to Papa New Guinea is six and half (6½) hours by Air.

And when I got there and I saw the Church (of God) thriving, I know that “this is not the work of any man – This is God!”

He remembered Israel and Israel had its Jubilee.

When I was watching the News and I discovered that some enemies were sending emissaries to Israel, and Israel has what is called “Iron Bow”. When a Rocket is coming, the Iron Bow will shoot down the Rocket! Small Country, but only a Covenant is speaking for them.

Don’t mess with anybody who is under a Covenant because God will fight you!

… And you don’t want God to fight you.

The first time we were in Israel, the Tall Guy who was leading us, he was telling us all kinds of funny Stories. He said, why are you always been beaten up by Nations that we have defeated in War?

But if God is for us, who can be against us?

How many of you are Grateful to God that you are in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG)? – THE DMC FAMILY MEMBERS!

Then consider the case in John 9:1-7 – It is the Story of the man who was Born Blind.

And His Disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his Parents, that he was born blind?

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his Parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

I. This man was sent in to the world to show the world how man was created.

II. He was created as an object for demonstrating the Glory of God.

And he was in darkness for forty (40) years. Then one day God remembered him, and said: Darkness, no more!

You know God has a Purpose why He sent you to this world and that Purpose shall be fulfilled – Amen.

And so I can say with confidence, that if only God will remember you tonight; every Problem in your Life is going to end – Amen.

… So that God will be? Glorified!

Are you considered barren? When all of a sudden you bring forth Children, God will be Glorified – Amen.

Has the Doctors said that you are Incurable? When the Almighty God heals you, the Doctors will say, “definitely, this must be the Almighty – Amen.

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

I can keep going on and on; but because we have to Pray l want to begin to round up.

And I am sure you already know the Prayer Point would be – God Remember me!

And He will, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

So What do you want Him to Remember you for?

That is a Big Question!

You see, because when He remembers Somebody, it is in two (2) ways:

1. If you read Acts 10:1-end, He Remembered Cornelius for his Offerings.

His Good Deeds brought him Salvation.

The Bible says in Psalms 20:1-3 that when God remembers your offerings, He will send help to you from the Sanctuary.

The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the Name of the God of Jacob defend thee; Send thee help from the Sanctuary, and Strengthen thee out of Zion; Remember all thy Offerings, and accept thy burnt Sacrifice; Selah.

Of course the Question is: What is Offering?

It is something that must be given Cheerfully and not grudginly.

You know I have told you before, if you cannot give to God with Joy and excitement, don’t give! Because if you give grudgingly, you have just wasted your money. – God is not going to receive it.

Instead of giving God what He will not receive, eat with it. Because the Bible says, God loves a Cheerful Giver.

So when they say it’s Offering Time, you should rejoice, you should dance:

Because sooner or later, He will remember your Offering – Amen.

2.. And then, there is another case – if you read Exodus 17:8-14.

The children of Israel had just crossed the Red Sea, and they didn’t know how to fight because they were Builders. And the Amelekites attacked them. Moses climbed up, “Help us!” God heard him.

And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a Memorial in a Book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under Heaven.

1 Samuel 15 (you know the Story)! God sent Prophet Samuel: Tell King Saul, I remembered what the Amalekites did to my People. Go and fight them.

When we talk about remembering, there’s remembrance for Good; there’s remembrance for Evil.

You are going to be Praying now, what do you want God to remember you for?

Like I mentioned yesterday about First Love (You can read the full Text of Day 2 Evening Session Message on the Label of DMC).

In our early days we loved God so much, we knew the meaning of: Total Surrender, Self Sacrifice, Giving Sacrificially, Spending and be Spent. We spent of our Resources, Energy and Time.

When we were building the first Auditorium by the Expressway; as soon as Workers closed from their offices in Lagos, they came to help work on the site all night. And by 3am I will have to be begging them to go and sleep because they will be resuming at their work place in the morning.

As they were working, I was also working – Even when I have asked them to go and sleep, I would still be working on the floor and carrying bags of cement.

I still remembered the First Baby born on this Camp Ground. I was busy at work by 1am (midnight) I saw a woman lying on a bench in pains. When I asked what happened, I found out she was expecting her baby (she was in labour). I sent for my wife (Mummy GO), they took her to one corner, she delivered a Baby Boy.

… Thank God that Boy is a Pastor today – He had no choice anyway!

I am talking about Self Sacrifice – If God is to Remember you today, what will He Remember you for?

These days, the Choir wants to be Paid for Singing to God.

I was at a Program somewhere outside Nigeria, they said the Ushers want an increase in their Stipend. They Paid them for counting the money. .

Usher? – And they even want an increase?

Now the Organist, Choir members and some others want to be Paid for working for God.

In those days, we were spending and were also spent. Not that I blame them because somewhere along the line, Prosperity Gospel flooded the world.

… Don’t get me wrongg, there is nothing wrong with Prosperity.

In the Name that is above every other names, you are going to Prosper – Amen.

Proverbs 10:22 – The Blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.

That they are demanding money before working is not even the Problem; it is that Pastors are now Stealing from the Church.

One of my daughters told me she discovered that her Fiance has been Stealing from the Offering Basket. And when she confronted him he said he is a son of Levite (Laughter).

We were willing to spend and be spent – That is why it was Popular then to go Full Time.

I was a Lecturer at the University of Ilorin. My Boys Quarters had 4 bedroom. And I had to relocate to Mushin.

When many People heard, they said “you mean he left his Career for Full-Time Ministry?”

People like Pastor Odeyemi also came into Full-time. I am talking of The Principal of a School.

When we opened a Parish in England, we needed Someone to resume there – Daramola, a Vetinary Doctor said he would go.

When you are saying, Oh God, remember me. What will God remember you for?

Because when God remembers you, things will happen according to your Sacrifice.

When I was coming into Full-time, the entire income of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) was not up to half of my Salary as a Lecturer. And by the time we Paid the thirty nine (39) Workers we had then, there was nothing left.

I said Lord, I have a wife and children to take care of.

He made me a Promise – “I will be with you.”

So, if you see what God is doing for me now and you feel jealous, God have Mercy on you!

… And I am not taking about money now.

We went to America for a Program, there was heavy traffic due to smoke from accident scene. And we were already running late for the Program.. We tried to see if we could Charter a Private Jet, the amount was beyond us

And then some Passengers when they saw Leke, they said, “that must be Pastor Adeboy’a son. “Is Daddy here?” Yes!

They told their Oga (Leader) about us.

As soon as that one heard, we were given all the needed assistance: “Take them to wherever they are going.”

God is my Leader! He has already arranged for Someone to pick me up. He Said, “I will be with you.”

If God should remember you, what will He remember you for?

Because He said in His Word – Behold I come quickly and my Reward is with me to give to every man according to his work.

Please think deeply, because so many things will become New when God remembers you.

We see Pastors who want to be Paid before they can Pray for you. I mean, you hear them say, sow a Seed before I Pray for your child.

Where is the Spirit of: And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved? – 2 Corinthians 12:15

Where is the Spirit of: I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the Faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me? – Galatians 2:20

Where is the Spirit of: For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain? – Philippians 1:21

When you say God remember me, how do you want Him to remember you? – For Good or for Evil?

But examine your Life – Ask Him to bring back to you that Spirit of Self Sacrifice, Sanctification and Total Consecration.

And then call on Him to remember you during this Year of Jubilee Celebration.

…. Pray for the Next Thirty (30) Minutes and then Remember to drop your Offering.

RCCG 2022 MINISTERS’ CONFERENCE (DAY 3 MORNING SESSION)

THEME: PERFECT JUBILEE

MINISTERING: PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE

DATE: 6TH AUGUST, 2022

BIBLE TEXT: ACTS 4: 23-31

This afternoon (Day 3), I will want to encourage you to ensure that you attend the Afternoon Session.

There will be Presentations/Talk on Security and then Kingdom of God on Earth.

It is not written that thou should defend yourself.

The Bible says that if they slapped you on the Right Cheeks, that you should turn over your Left Cheeks. And if they now slap you on the Left Cheeks, the Bible is silent on what you should do.

What does this mean?

If they slap you on the Right Cheeks and you then turn the Left Cheeks and they slapped you; then the rest is up to you to decide.

They slapped us on the Right Cheeks in Owo (Ondo State Nigeria) when they came to our Church and began to kill the People there.

I waited for the Government to send Battalion of Soldiers to go there and clear the Forest in Ondo State but nothing happened.

I waited for the Amotekun (Leopard) – DMC NOTES:The ‘Amotekun’ is the name given to The Joint Security Outfit floated in the Western Zone of Nigeria; to go to the forest and catch up with the Bandits but I didn’t hear anything.

So, it became so clear to me that it is the battle for us in the Church to fight!

And then they went to Akure (Capital City of Ondo State Nigeria) and kill a Bishop there and then to the South East to kill the Head of the Methodist Church – That was our Left Cheeks that they slapped.

Are we going to wait until they kidnapped the General Overseer? – No sir!

I have told you before and even in this Minister’s Conference 2022; that we should Watch before we Pray!

I said that you don’t need to get a License to kill and carry gun. And in any case, Samson didn’t use any AK-47 to kill but he used the jawbone of an Ass. (DMC NOTES: AK-47, also called Kalashnikov Model 1947, Soviet assault rifle, possibly the most widely used shoulder weapon in the world. The initials AK represent Avtomat Kalashnikova, Russian for “automatic Kalashnikov,” for its designer, Mikhail Timofeyevich Kalashnikov, who designed the accepted version of the weapon in 1947.)

So, you need no License for the jawbone of an Ass – The jawbone of an Ass has Anointing.

So, I said that if in your Vestry, there should be jawbone of an Ass; there is no Law against that. If the Policemen came and find the jawbone of an Ass and asked; tell them that it is for demonstration during Sunday School how Samson used the jawbone of an Ass.

And then you sit down there blaming the President – What can he do?

If today, they attacked the Sultan of Sokoto or the Resident of the Redemption Camp (God forbids); what will the President do?

The President will read a “Prepared Speech”, condemn in Strong Terms the Bandits and then say they will soon catch the Bandits.

And then the President will called for a Meeting of the Armed Chiefs and Police, command them to go and get the Bandits.

… After all these, what happened?

At the age of eighty (80) years old, did we expect the President to go and wear Khaki, carry gun and go to war again? – Stop blaming the wrong fellow.

And I know as the General Overseer of this Church that we should not allow ourselves to be held Captives.

I can Prove this to you:

We want this Redemption Camp City of God to be Full of Light all the time and then we went ahead to buy GT-1 and then we disconnected ourselves from the Power Source from the Government.

DMC NOTES: GT Power is a Bulletin Board System (BBS) and dial-up Telecommunications/terminal application for MS-DOS. It was first introduced in the 1980s by P & M Software, founded by Paul Meiners. GT Power can be used both to host a BBS as well as to connect to other BBS Systems via its full-featured dial-up “terminal mode.” GT Power was a Shareware Package that required a registration fee in order to access its proprietary network mail transport/handling software and, by default, the GT Power Network. The software is distributed in two “flavors”; a terminal-only version, nicknamed GTO, and the full-featured host and terminal version.

And then, we began to grow and we got the GT-2 – Saying that if GT-1 fails, a GT-2 will back up.

And then, with the “Little Money” God gave me, I Personally bought GT-3. The GT-3 Monster alone can cover every Places here till we get to Shimawa (Ogun State Nigeria).

But do you know what happened – Last Year (2021), for three (3) Months; this Place was in darkness.

I called our Maintenance People to beg them; I threatened them – Ha, nothing happened. Your Subordinates, can hold you Captives.

But you know what – Unless there is Light Supply, I can sit here and be talking but you won’t hear me.

Please Pray for the President – He should be Pitied!

Meaning that you should learn to defend yourself.

That is one of the reasons that you should not miss this afternoon Session – There will be Short Talk on Security and there will be another Talk as well on: Kingdom of God on Earth.

In Europe, quite a number of my children are Counsellors.

I have told you before that God told me that a time is coming that Nobody will become anything without visiting us.

Therefore, I won’t be surprised that if between now and the Holy Ghost Congress in December 2022; those People who has not visited here before starts coming.

Some of you were there when someone who wants to become a Prime Minister in Britain came to our Program that we should Pray for him. He called me daddy simply because he wants to win.

And when he came, I asked him what his Chance was and he said they told him thirty five Percent (3&%). Can you help me Pray?

I told him that because you came, you will get seventy Percent (70%).

I decree in the Name that is above every other names that you will Win – Amen!

And I’m saying that this Afternoon Meeting (Day 3 Afternoon Session is very important).

Then we will be back this Evening by 7pm so that we can take Reports from the Continents before I came in!

Bible Text: Acts 4: 23-31.

23. And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.
24. And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
25. Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
26. The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27. For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,
28. For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
29. And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word.
30. By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
31. And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.

Jubilee is Restoration Plus New Beginning!

1. PHYSICALLY

A good example of Jubilee is what happened in 2 Kings 5:14 to Naaman.

He wasn’t just healed but fully restored – The Bible says that his (Naaman) skin came back to him as the skin of a New Born Baby.

2. MATERIALLY

In Job 42: 12-15; Job had money before, he lost everything, but God later restored him double and then gave him a New Beginning.

3. MENTALLY

In Daniel 4:13-End; Nebuchadnezzar lost his senses and had to eat grass but later start afresh.

4. SPIRITUALLY

In Mark 5: 2-22 is the Story of the Mad Man of Gadara. He was terribly mad but God restored him and his Destiny as an Evangelist was restored.

So, to fully understand Jubilee is just one word that can describe it as a Congregation and Mission – And that word is called: “REVIVAL”.

In the Story of the Prodigal son that we mentioned yesterday (Day 2 of The RCCG Minister’s Conference 2022); it says that the reason the father celebrated is: This my son is lost but now found; he was dead and now alive!

So, when we talk about Jubilee, it is about you and I.

1. It could be Revival in the Church – Going back to the Origin.

Meaning to start afresh.

2. Or Revival to us as an Individua:

I. You used to hear from God before but you no more hear from God.

II. You used to be Close to God before, but now you are distant from Him.

III. You look at yourself, even at the beginning things are much better.

When you say it is now Jubilee; God will say that you are Welcome!

I believed that Majority of us needs Revival and because we don’t have time, we will limit ourselves to: Areas of Revival of Faith and Prayer.

1. REVIVAL OF FAITH

Initially just like many of us, when I first got Born Again, I have Faith like a Child and do as I was thought – You say Jesus Christ said this and I believed!

One of my daughter sent me a text and it says: When you throw up a Child, the Child laughs.

Why? – She said that is Faith.

Have you seen a Child being thrown up? The Child is enjoying it and not afraid because he knows that the one who throws him up will catch him.

Psalms 119:89 was one of my favourite Song in those days:

Forever Oh Lord
Thy Word is Settled in Heaven
It is Settled.

The Book of Philippians 4:13 – The first time that I read it; I said that you mean that this is in the Bible?

“I can do “ALL” things through Christ that Strengthens me”.

I can do how many things? – All Things!

When the Lord told me that we are going to build this Present Auditorium that we are but says that I shouldn’t collect an Offering for it; I ran into the toilet.

Why? – I was scared. Where will the money come from? I am not a Business Man. But I still believed God because if I didn’t, I won’t even start it.

By the Grace of God, when He (God) said that we should build the 3km by 3km Auditorium, I was scared but I can’t asked Him whether to collect Offerings or not because I believed Him to do it.

And then I learnt that – These Signs shall follow them that believed!

How many Believers are here today or reading now on the Label of DMC?

He said that when I lay hands on the Sick, they shall recovered.

I told you what I did – I started Practicing with my children.

When they say that they have headache, I will keep Paracetamol by the side nearby and then I will Pray for them by laying hands on them.

If after five (5) Minutes nothing happened, I will give them Paracetamol.

But God saw the Level of my Faith such that within the five (5) Minutes; my children will be sleeping and when they wake up, the headache would have gone.

Then I said to myself – If this is working for my children, let me go ahead to my friends – At least the ones that will not make gest of me if it doesn’t work out for them.

I believed God, and it worked for me.

But then, how do I improve from there?

When I read Mark 11:23-24; For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this Mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

And I had Faith in God; and I believed, I commanded Mountains to move, and when nothing happened, my Faith began to dwindle

… I am talking about myself now!

Then later on because I am explaining how I got my own encounter. Unless He asked me to stop – “Stop! Don’t go that direction.” If He doesn’t say it; by His Grace, by Faith I will move on.

I saw in the Bible that there are some man who had Faith and they Practically lost it

1. Take Abraham, the Father of Faith.

In Genesis 15:1-6, God Promised him and showed him in a Vision, “Abraham, your children would be like Stars.”

The Bible says he believed God, and it was counted to him for Righteousness. But then years Passed and nothing happened. He wondered how he’s going to be the father of Nations – Nothing happened!

The wife said, look I am barren, take my housemaid.

… Do you know that Abraham didn’t argue? (Laughter)

As soon as the wife said it, He quickly said, thank you Darling. You know me myself; I have been thinking; it’s just that I didn’t know how you would feel about it.

And then came Genesis 17:1-8; God called him again, Abraham! Yes Lord, I am here. “I am Jehovah El shaddai, the God who Supplies your need. Yes Lord!

You know what Abraham? You are still going to be the father of many Nations. The Bible says he fell on his face and laughed.

Do you know what he saw saying? God just stop this joke. Thank You for Ishmael. Not all these “I am going to be the father of many Nations.” I believed You twenty five (25) years ago! Now, stop the joke.

But by the time you get to Genesis 21:1-7, you discovered that there will be a delay, but God will come through – Amen.

Haaa! I said, God will come through – Amen!

The Bible says everyone who is a Christian is of the Seed of Abraham.

How many children of Abraham are here today?

… Wave up your hands and shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

His Faith was small before; not only did it reduced, but his Faith died! But there was a Revival. And God came through.

2. Then take Elijah:

Elijah whom God said, he is my friend. This was a man who stood alone against all the Prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel – 1 Kings 18:1-end.

Great Man of Faith! He called down Fire from Heaven. And then something happened in 1 Kings 19:1-4; Just one woman (Jezebel) threatened him, he ran!

And when he was tired, he said he wanted to die. A great Man of Faith like Elijah became Sucidal – His Faith got below zero.

But then, how did he end? 2 Kings 2:1-3, Revival came and the Almighty God had to send His Own Special Chariot to take him Home.

3. But the Bible actually sealed the matter for me, where the issue of Faith is concern: is John the Baptist

John 1:35-36; And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!

In John 1:32-34; And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from Heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

Again and again, he kept saying, “Behold the Lamb of God!”

But then trouble came. And John the Baptist was going to Prison for Standing up for the Truth. And he expected Jesus Christ to come and just speak a word. But Jesus Christ didn’t come!

So in Luke 7:19-23, he sent his Disciples, go and ask Him: “Art thou he that should come? Or look we for another?”

He is the one who said, “Behold the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world.”

He is also the one who said, the Bible says “I will give you a Sign”.

That Problem that will destroy your Faith, God will not allow it to come near you – Amen.

… So, your Faith might need a Revival.

I attended a Meeting years ago in Malaysia, someone walked up to me, Sir, we have heard a lot of Testimony of you. We have heard how God is doing Marvelous things in your Ministry, of Mighty Miracles.

Are you saying everyone you Prayed for got healed? I said No Sir. The Bible makes it clear that death is the Final Healing. People who die never get sick again.

I still believed the Word of God which says: you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall? Recover!

Lazarus died for four (4) days, Jesus brought him back, but he still died again. Otherwise he would have still been here.

What am I saying? For ever, O LORD, thy Word is settled in Heaven – Psalms 119:89.

… If you believe that let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

You need a Revival of your Faith. Stop doubting God.

That Mountain will surely move – Amen.

It might not be at a time when you expect it to; but it will move! Once God has spoken it, it is done!

… You need Faith.

2. REVIVAL OF PRAYER

And then you also need Prayer.

For me when I got Born Again, Prayer is Core – I believed that the longer the better.

In those days that we Prayed – I came from a Denomination that it is only the Priest that Pray and we just say Amen!

The Priest doesn’t even Pray but just reads out the Special Prayer. There is a Special Prayer we said the day before Christmas. And there’s another one we said the morning after Cross Over Night.

… So I came from that kind of Church to The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).

And in those days, once they finished Sermon, they lead you in Prayer – You just keep on Praying till you are satisfied.

They will finished Sermon, and I will go to the Altar, kneel down there and say: Almighty God, You know why I am here. Please, solve my Problems. Thank You!

And then I will look up! And everybody, were just settling in. So I will read the Lord’s Prayer; and keep on repeating it. And finally say, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

And then there is this man (he has gone to be with the Lord now). Oh, he knows how to Pray, men! He would just be Praying.

So I made up my Mind, I will learn how to Pray from him. Because of that I will go early to Church, so that I can kneel down next to him when it is time to Pray.

And I began to Study him – Before he even starts, he will spend Minutes Praising God. Then he will start to Pray (while I repeated after him): “Almighty God – Almighty God; You are the Maker of Heaven and Earth;”

… And I kept on repeating. That’s how I learned to Pray!

But when I get home and I decided to Pray like that, I will kneel down to Pray; I will fall asleep. When I wake up, it will be morning.

So I decided, maybe I will be walking in my room as I Pray;. As soon as I get tired, I would lean against the wall. And I will fall asleep! That’s how I will remain till morning.

Oh, Praise God I can sleep. The Bible says “…. For so He giveth His Beloved Sleep” – Psalms 127:2

So those of you who can sleep shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

… You must be a Beloved of God (laughter)!

I had to decide that when I want to Pray at Night, I will climb the stairs of the house I was living then at Adelabu (Lagos State Nigeria) – So that if I fall asleep I will just fall down.

That’s why even today when I want to Pray, I need to walk around the Camp. By the time I come out from my house to the Youth Center, I turn towards the Redeemer’s School, Hospital Road, Emmanuel Park and sometimes it takes hours.

We don’t do that in two (2) minutes – The longer, the better!

And I still remembered very well, when I newly became the General Overseer, I called some of my friends together to Ilorin (Kwara State Nigeria). And we Prayed for Thirty six (36) hours Non-Stop – We only stopped to use the toilet.

… And I can still see some of them sitting infront of me.

Thirty six (36) hours Non-Stop! And we enjoyed ourselves. And God spoke! That’s where He told us about this Place (The Redemption Camp City of God).

And just as we were rejoicing that we Prayed for Thirty six (36) hours Non-Stop, I saw a Book about Somebody who Prayed for Thirty (30) Days and Night without Stopping. Then I knew I haven’t started.

And then, we move to your Prayer Points;

As a baby-in-Lord, the answers to your Prayers come almost immediately.

Is that correct? – Yes Sir!

In Isaiah 65:24, He says: And it shall come to Pass, that before they Call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

And you know the reason why? Because at that time you are a Baby. And we all know that babies are called “Gbenjo” (Lift Up and dance with them). And the moment a baby cries you run and do something about it.

When we are children, the answer will come immediately.

But as we began to grow higher, the answer begin to come later.

Matthew 7:7-8; says: Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

And He says: Ask, Seek, Knock.

The Asking is for the Teenagers;

For the Young Adults, you are to Seek; .

And for the Elders, you are to knock – And you better keep on knocking!

You used to Pray for hours Unend.

Now, you can’t even pray for one (1) hour.

As far as Jesus is concerned, the Minimum time to use for Prayer as a Pastor is one (1) hour.

Matthew 26:40 says: And He cometh unto the Disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not Watch with me one hour?

But Revival will come – Amen.

It can come in Two (2) Ways, so you can Pick which one you want:

1. It can come Voluntarily:

You just have to make up your Mind, from now on, I am not going to be fooling around when it comes to Prayer.

Ephesians 5:14 says: Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

2.Or it can come by Force:

In Acts 8:3-4, when the Disciples were having a nice time in Jerusalem: there was Plenty to eat, Plenty to drink, the Church was doing comfortably well.

And then the devil spoke to Saul of Tarsus: go and get them!

I believed very, very firmly that the Problems that we are facing in the world is because Christians are falling asleep. Particularly, here in Nigeria.

But Somebody is going to wake up today – Amen.

… If you are the one, let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

The Disciples who were sleeping when Jesus Christ said, Watch and Pray;

The Bible tells us in Acts 12:1-16; when the King captured one of the Apostles, Nobody Prayed! They have fallen asleep. So he killed him (James).

And then he reached out and captured Peter, put him in Prison. And he was going to kill him too. But now, the Church woke up and they began to Pray – Prison doors forced open.

Every door of Prison shut against the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) will be forced open. Why? – Because we will begin to Pray!

Every Prison door shut against your Family will be forced open. Why? – Because you will begin to Pray!

Every Prison door that has been shut against the Womb of the Members of your Congregation, that is not allowing them to Produce children will be forced open. Why? – Because you; their Pastor will begin to Pray!

Not too long ago, I had to send a Letter back to some People. Why?

Because they wrote to me, saying: one of our Members is sick, he needs one hundred thousand Naira (N150,000) for Hospital Bill. Another Member is sick, he needs two hundred thousand Naira (N200,000) for Hospital Bill.

In the Past, the only letter I get is that, this Fellow is sick, we have Prayed, we need you to Support us with higher Anointing.

Now they don’t ask you for Prayers, they ask you for money; because they have fallen asleep.

And I Decree in the Name that is above every other names; you will never spend your money for Doctors again. Why? Because you are going to Pray!!!!

The Bible says the same Apostles (who were sleeping) in the Bible Text (Acts 4:12-31); they Prayed until the Place where they were was shaking – They prayed, the Ground shook.

And when they had Prayed, the Place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the Word of God with Boldness – Acts 4:31

… It is not Casual Prayers that shake the Ground.

I have told you Testimonies – I have told you that when my father-in-the-Lord announced (in Tulsa, USA) to six (6) of us who were there then that I would be succeeding him; we Prayed until the Hotel shook to its Foundation.

It shook so violently that the Engineers of the Hotel came knocking on the door of our Hotel room.

We opened the door, he said “what kind of Musical Instruments are you Playing? We said, we are not Playing any Musical Instrument.

… If you don’t believe me, anytime you see Pastor Stephen, ask him or you ask Pastor Gbadebo Lawal: he was there that day!

He said, No, you are Playing Musical Instrument.

He came in, searched under the bed and everywhere. He was confused!

When he was leaving, he got to the door and asked again: what did you say you were doing? I said, we were Praying! He couldn’t believed me.

As soon as we left, they closed down the Hotel. They dug round the Foundation to see what went wrong. They saw nothing wrong. But the Hotel shook!

Six (6) Ministers from Nigeria Prayed and shook a Hotel.

Some Thirty (30) years later, I went to Tulsa, USA again with my children. And I said, let me go and show you the Hotel that shook when your father Prayed.

When we got there the Hotel was still not opened. And I felt pity for its owners. So I laid my hand on the wall of the Hotel: Father Please, have Mercy!

…. Six (6) Months later, the Hotel was opened.

Now listen to me very attentively – If you don’t remembered anything during this RCCG Ministers’ Conference 2022; remember this one:

I. Ebola came to Nigeria, we Prayed.

A great friend of mine said: “whatever you are going to need we will send money from Abroad – let us know.”

I said, Ebola is not going to last one (1) Month in Nigeria and I cried to my Father. Ebola left! It didn’t disappear, it left.

II. Coronavirus came, I cried to my Father: we are helpless, Please help us.

And He said son, I have heard your cry, it’s only those whose time has come that would die. (I already told you what He said).

Statisticians told us Two Thousand (2,000) People died from snake bite every year. So for two (2) years, four thousand (4,000) People die from snake bite.

The number of People who have died from Coronavirus up till today is less than four thousand (4,000) because God is still answering Prayers.

If you believe that, say Amen – Amen!!!

I am not going to wait with you and Pray today – If you like Pray for two (2) Minutes and go away.

Ask God to Revive your Faith.

It is because your Faith is small, that is why Prayer is no longer fun – Faith of a little baby!

And then you are going to Pray: Father, Revive my Prayer Life. Beginning from now, let me Pray the Prayer that will shake the Ground – Amen.

Lord, Revive my Prayer Life.

When you finish Praying, drop your Offering; and remember to come back by 2pm.

God bless you – Amen.

RCCG 2022 MINISTERS’ CONFERENCE (DAY 2 EVENING SESSION)

THEME: PERFECT JUBILEE

MINISTERING: PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE

DATE: 5TH AUGUST, 2022

BIBLE TEXT: REVELATION 2:1-7

HALLELUJAH!

OPENING PRAYER.

King of Glory, we give You Thanks, we give You Adoration. We want to say Thank You!

Once again we Thank You for opening our Understanding to Ingratitude. We Thank You for Grace, for Restoration. Thank You for Jubilee.

Please, accept our Thanks, in Jesus’ Name.

Father, Please, continue with us!

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed- Amen.

Let Somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

1. All those who will be Ministering with us during the Convention, your Fasting and Prayer begins tomorrow (Saturday, 6th August 2022) and it will end next week Saturday (13th August 2022).

So all those of you who would be Ministering with us, I tell you, that is the Pattern.

… And so, your Fasting begins tomorrow (Saturday, 6th of August 2022).

This will help you Succeed, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

Let me give you a hint: As you will also learn during this Ministers’ Conference-; we are expecting the Anointing of God to flow like a Mighty River.

… I am sure and I am not saying this to frighten you – That with the noise that has been made in Adverts; if Heaven knows we are congregating, Angels will come.

And if Hell knows we are going to have a Meeting, it is likely that one (1) or two (2) of his children will show up.

And so those of you here who are going to Minister, you must be Hot.

There is no room for Lukewarmness during this Convention – If you feel that you don’t have the ability to Fast, Please, when it’s time to Minister (and we will be Ministering) don’t join us.

I want you to be so Hot that sickness, diseases, demons will be roasted at your touch – Amen.

Don’t let me deceive you; if you join the Ministering Team during this Convention Unprepared, then Lord have Mercy on you!

How do they say it? – Half a word is enough for the Wise!

Several years ago, in America, one Pastor said, “I want to come to Africa and Minister with you.” We were at a Restaurant and I saw the way he was dealing with food (laughter). I said to him, “Please Sir, don’t come!” He said, what do you mean?

I have enough Problems dealing with the Congregation; I don’t want to waste time having to cast out demons after you have Ministered – Don’t come!

He looked at me surprised! I’m not the one saying it. Jesus said there are some demons that will not go out except with Prayer and Fasting.

… Say it loud and clear – Prayer and Fasting.

So if you know you cannot go through the Fire of Purification, don’t join us when it is time to lay hands during this Convention.

Some of you don’t take me serious, because I don’t shake and jerk whenever I am talking – That’s because God doesn’t shake and jerk when He is talking.

The Bible says you shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall do what? – Set you free.

So, those of you who will Minister with us during this Convention, your Fasting begins when? – Tomorrow!

… I can’t hear you – Tomorrow!

God’s Grace will be Sufficient for you – Amen.

2. Tomorrow morning you will get here by 7am to Worship God and Pray. I will join you by 8am. And then come with your Walking shoes.

Now the walking of tomorrow will not be different from that of today. Except for one thing, I might not even join you.

You know why?

Today, the crowd that was near me almost choked me. I saw several People! The People that were supposed to be around are People who are Seventy (70) years old. But I saw Teenagers.

So, if my Purpose of Walking is to communicate with God, I might not join. And if I decide to go, maximum number around me at all should be Twelve (12).

… How many People? – Twelve (12)! Say it louder – Twelve (12)!

I know you People are trying to Protect me; but the noise, the Pushing is much!

We need to wake up to know we are dealing with High Tension Spiritual Matters. You don’t build your house under a High Tension Wire.

Before Sunday (7th August 2022); every sands on this Camp Ground would be Fire – Amen.

No room for jokes! I won’t even tell you my route tomorrow.

So, if I decide to go for Prayer Walk – That is if Daddy says I should go at all; maximum People should be how many? – Twelve (12)!

God Bless you – Amen!.

Revelation 2:1-7:

1 Unto the Angel of the Church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;

2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:

3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name’s sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.

… This must be a wonderful Church.

4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.

I am sure some of you would say, “I thought we are here to discuss Perfect Jubilee? What kind of Passage is this?

What did I tell you Jubilee means?

1. Restoration.
2. New Beginning.

The moment you look at those two (2) words, you will notice something straight away:

1. Restoration means, something has gone amiss and we are restoring it.
2. A New Beginning means, you have messed it up, we are restoring you so that you can start again.

And here God is speaking to a very wonderful Church – The Church at Ephesus. A Church that had Sound Foundation, that had no room for fake Apostles, that had Patience, and for the Name of the Lord, they laboured. Wonderful Church!

But the Lord said, sorry ooo, you have failed in one Cardinal Point – YOU HAVE LEFT YOUR FIRST LOVE.

We are going to start with the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).

1. HOLINESS

We were known (and I believe we are still known) for Holiness – We were very, very strict.

Why? – Because Hebrews 12:14 says: Without Holiness, no man shall see God.

We want to see God! And we must be Holy – We are known for Holiness.

During our days, if a Pastor misbehaves – Commit adultery for example, if he is the one who confessed before we discovered, we have to discipline him.

And discipline in those days included cutting grass like a Prisoner.

Here in this Redemption Camp; one Pastor committed adultery, and for three (3) Months, he was cutting grass because we wants to see God.

How many of you want to see God on the last day? – THE DMC FAMILY MEMBERS!

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

Nobody came to us to beg for a Pastor who committed adultery; to beg for a Pastor who stole, or misused Church money; or for a Pastor who is Teaching false Doctrines.

2. PRAYER

We were known for Prayers.

Why? – Because Jesus says in John 14:14: If ye shall ask any thing in my Name, I will do it.

One man referred to our Prayers in those days as rain – When it rains, you will see clearly that it is raining.

One man Abroad saw us Praying and said: No wonder you are never sick here. He said, the exercise you do while Praying is enough to keep sickness away.

I know one of my friends in Ilorin (Kwara State Nigeria), when he is Praying, you better stay away from him, because he will be kicking while Praying. He happened to be a Boxer and he would be boxing.

So, if you stay close to him, his blow would land on you!

I have seen People spreading Pebbles on the ground, kneeling on it to Pray.:

There is no way I will fall asleep with my knees surrounded with Pebbles.

We Prayed! And I mean, we Prayed!!!

I have said before; the first time I was invited – My first Sunday in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG). I was enjoying the Service, the singing, the dancing, etc.

Then it was time for Prayer. And as the Pastor that was to lead the Prayer came up – I still remembered the Pastor (Pastor Ogunnaike). As soon as he collected the Microphone and he said, “Jehovah Nla!” (Meaning: “Big Jehovah”) and the fellow next to me shouted “Amen!!!”

I nearly ran out of the Church – The Amen was so loud that even demons could not stay.

But today, even when we say, God bless you, you find it difficult to say Amen.

It will interest you to note: because we didn’t know the names of the Pastors, we used whatever is common with them to call them. And in my family, from that day on, we called that man “Jehovah Nla” (Big Jehovah).

I mean, we Prayed! And we are Praying but our Prayers shook the ground.

I could still remembered then at Ebute Meta (RCCG National Headquarters Parish), one day a Traditional Ruler can to worship with us. His Chiefs told themselves – “When they Pray, and they ask you to bow your head and close your eyes, don’t do so.” Because by the time they finished Praying, you will be the only one remaining.

That’s how we Prayed!

… Let me hear someone shout Fire – Fire!!!

3. EVANGELISM.

We were known for Evangelism.

Why? – John 15:16 says: Ye have not Chosen me, but I have Chosen you, and Ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my Name, He may give it you.

We were committed to Evangelism, we were committed to Follow up.

I still remembered one situation very clearly – A Lady came to our Church.

Why? – Her mother had been sick and rejected by Specialist. She was sent home to die. Somebody told her, go to the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), when they ask for First Timer, indicate. Very soon they will come looking for you in your house.

As soon as she came out as a First Timer, we followed her home that day. We saw the mother, and we Prayed for her and the Lord healed her.

So, when I joined the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), there were Three (3) Basic Steps. And they are:

I. SALVATION:

John 3:1-8, you must be Born Again.

I came to the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) and I had a Problem. I asked them to Pray. I had money and I was ready to Pay.

But they said: Give your Life to Jesus Christ.

What are we talking about? Pray for me, tell me how much to Pay you.

They kept hammering that I must give my Life to Jesus Christ.

They were not asking for my money but the Salvation of my Soul.

Thank God I gave my Life to Jesus Christ. And at that Point, my wife gave her Life to Jesus Christ on the same day!

… We are talking about the Issue of your First Love.

II. SANCTIFICATION.

They had Sanctification – They called it Second Step. You must be Sanctified.

1 Thessalonians 4:3 says: For this is the Will of God, even your Sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:

III. HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM.

You must be baptized in the Holy Spirit – They called it the Third Step.

2 Thessalonians 2:13 says: But we are bound to give Thanks alway to God for you, Brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning Chosen you to Salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the Truth:

Salvation, Sanctification and Baptism in the Holy Spirit – They hammered these Three (3) Points – and we embraced them.

You cannot join the Choir, the Ushering, even join the Work Force without Passing through these three (3) Steps.

You can’t become a Worker if you can’t tell us your Experience on these three (3) Points consequently because that was the Position of the Church at the beginning.

The Church operated in Great Power, not in Titles – Everybody was a Brother and a Sister back then.

Oh yes, we had Pastors (the Senior Pastor). Every other Sub-Ministers was just a Brother or a Sister.

But everyone of the Sub-Ministers were terror to the devil – We operated tremendous Power.

I need to tell you such Stories, because Jubilee is to restore us to our First Love, and to give us a New Beginning.

You have heard the Story of one of the Sub-Ministers, who went to Pastor in one of our Parishes in Ogun State and he got a room near the herbalist.

The herbalist no longer got Customers. And he discovered that they were now going to this boy who calls himself Pastor. And so, he decided to eliminate this Young Pastor the Magical way.

The Boy locked his door and windows, went to Church. When he returned, he saw a hen brooding over eggs.

And the Elders know the meaning of that one – Run for your Life! Because, if you bend to pick the hen, your back breaks. If you try to kick it, your leg is going to be Paralysed.

But my boy looked at the hen, said: God I Thank You! You know I don’t have money to buy chicken and you gave me one for free. You know it’s being long I ate eggs and you have Provided my need.

He said to the chicken – I cover you with the Blood of Jesus. Welcome to my dinning table!

Let somebody shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah

… That is where we were – Doing exploits for God!

And some of you are shaking when a witch says: “I will deal with you.”.

Another Spiritual child of mine went to start a Church in a Particular Place. When he goes to fetch water he saw big fish swimming around with no fear. And he asked, “What is so Special about this fish?”

He was told, People don’t catch them because even if you boil them in hot water they will just keep on swimming!

He said, is that so?

He went back there, looked around, nobody saw him – He caught one big fish. Covered it with the Blood of Jesus, cooked it and had fish for dinner.

Shout, the Blood of Jesus!!!!

I am telling you all these because God arranged this Theme (Perfect Jubilee) to let you know, some jokers will try to frighten you to deal with the Fire in you.

Let somebody shout Fire – Fire!!!!

Every Worker back then had Fire:

I. Choir Members saw Vision and had the Gifts of the Holy Spirit.

I can remembered a case back then in Ilorin (Kwara State Nigeria) – A fat Lady was sleeping while Message was going on. The woman sitting next to her was sweating Profusely because the Lady sleeping was sitting on her neck. And the Lord opened a Choir Member’s eyes to see what was going on in the Spirit and she said, come down!

If the fellow next to you is sleeping, wake them up! Don’t let anyone sit on your neck.

Shout Fire – Fire!!!!!

That’s the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) – God has said after Seventy (70) years, I will visit you – Amen.

And that means He will Restore us – Amen.

Like I told you, Jubilee is an Individual thing.

So what was your own First Love?

For the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), it was Holiness, Prayer, Evangelism and Follow-up, etc.

Because, to tell you the Truth, even at that time, we were not all Holy.

There was a case of Elders among the Pastors, who committed adultery; A Choir Member fighting another Choir Member – “Leave my husband alone.”

… Oh, there were cases!

So, the issue is not strictly us, but “me”!

The Question you should ask yourself is, “Wait a Minute, who am I?”

In the beginning, if somebody asked me, “who are you?” I said, I am a Child of God.

John 1:12 says: But as many as received Him, to them gave He Power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His Name:

When I became Born Again, I became a Child of God, because Jesus died for me.

John 15:13 says: Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Why did He died for me? – Because God loves me.

John 3:16 says: For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not Perish, but have everlasting life.

Also, John 6:44 says: No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw Him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

I wasn’t the only one who heard these Messages back then. It was Him Who revealed Himself to me.

I. Who am I? – As soon as I became Born Again, I became His Disciple, His Friend – John 15:10-15.

II. As soon as I became Born Again, I became a Pilgrim on the way to Heaven – John 14:1-3.

So, my First Love in those early days was:

I. We loved Praising Him:

I try to sing some of the Songs we used to sing then;

1. I am rejoicing my name has been written;
   I am rejoicing that I am Born Again.
2. Only Jesus can save,
   Only Jesus can save Hallelujah.

… That Particular Song was what we used to sing anything we had Break. And we want to tell Brethren to come out.

We sang Songs like:

3. I know Your Name
   I know Your Name
   Your Name is Wonderful,
   I know Your Name.

We also sang hymns like: I have a Friend, most Precious to behold; Jesus loves me.”

… Those were the Songs we sang.

Much later, we started singing Songs like: “Abraham Blessings are Mine.”

That’s true but in those days, it almost sounds strange.

We sang the song I love the Man of Galilee:

I love that Man of Galilee
For He has done so very much for me
He has forgiven me my sins
And sent the Holy Ghost with me
I love that Man of Galilee.

That was in the beginning and of course, my First Love. I just wanted to Please Him:

He has done so much for me
He has taken away my sorrow
Oh Glory, Hallelujah
He’s coming to take me Home!

II. In every way I needed to Please Him, and obey Him by witnessing.

And in those days we had “Fisherman’s Club.”

What was our Goal? – You must not sleep unless you have won a Soul a day.

And we were so committed to it to the extent that if you laid in bed at night and remembered that you had not won any Soul that day, you will leave your bed, go and wait infront of your house.

… Is there any Member of the Fisherman’s Club still here?

You would hear us say things like: “Good Evening Sir and Ma, I have a Message for you from the Lord. God loves you, He wants to solve your Problems ….”.

Many atimes, the People gave their lives to Jesus Christ by force because we would not let them be.

Ask yourself Minister of God – How many Souls have you Witness to this Year (2022) – Since the beginning of the Year?

III. We loved Digging Deep into the Word of God:

Because the Bible says in 1 Peter 2:2 – As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the Word, that ye may grow thereby:

In those days, you cannot find a “Genuine Christian” who has not gotten a Pocket Bible.

In 1976 I went to attend a World Conference of Pentecostals in Nairobi Kenya. Few of us went from Nigeria. My bossom friend Brother Kumuyi – He was a brother then and I was Brother Enoch.

We slept in the School Domitory; and I went to use the toilet. When I finished doing my business and came out, Brother Kumuyi was in the other toilet. When we came out, both of us had our Pocket Bible in our hands. We were Studying and Memorising Scriptures right there in the toilet.

Because Jesus in John 5:39 says: Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

We memorised the Scriptures back then. And part of the Scriptures I memorised then, I still remembered now.

IV. We never missed Fellowship.

When any opportunity to attend Fellowship came, we grabbed it – That was our First Love.

And some of you might be in that Category; while some of you, your First Love might be different.

I got Born Again on Sunday Night. By Monday morning, I was already Witnessing. I was a Student at the University of Lagos. My Supervisor (of Blessed Memory) said, “Adeboye, you look different. Did you attend a Party over the weekend?” I said No, I received an Invitation to the Heavenly Ceremony.

And if I traveled hundreds of kilometers, when we greet, the next thing I did was to Witness – I just couldn’t keep my mouth shut!

I don’t understand why you can’t Witness as a Born Again Child of God.

Before we Pray; if I look at myself today, especially if I had continued with the same Sermons of those days, will I be here? Is this where I am supposed to be by now?

… And I am not talking of Titles – I am talking of Power.

If I had continued with my First Love, is this where I will be? Not by Tithes.

After all, in Acts 8:5-8, the work recorded for a Deacon Philip was not so of some Apostles.

Thank God for Peter – The Apostles had Tithes, some of the Deacons had Power.

We were talking not too long ago – When I was Eighty (80) years old, when all the Head of Churches my Life has touched gave Beautiful Testimonies. Those whose daughters had died and God brought back to Life, who are now Doctors; those whose wives died and we Prayed for, God answered.

I thanked them. But I said to them, the Problem with this kind of Testimony is that as a General Overseer, People tell you only the Good things you have done and not the bad ones.

I heard a Story before, and I am telling you because I believed God wants to give you Perfect Jubilee – At least a few of you would have heard about what happened to me. This is not a lie.

In the Past, I was closer to God in the area of Prayer and Faith – My First Love!

In 1975 there was a World Conference of Applied Mathematicians and I was one of them. I got my PhD 1974, and I was representing my Country in 1975 – I felt honoured and I thought I had arrived.

Before my turn to make.my Presentation, a man did his. He had over a hundred and fifty (150) Publications. And here he was, talking about the Mathematics of Rain.

Mathematics of Rain?

And I Prayed, God, Please when I am going to Present my Paper, don’t let this man come.

But he came!

I was already Born Again then. And when I finished my my Presentation, that man was one of those who clapped for me.

Later on he called me aside, he said: but why did you solve your Equation with Complex when you had already used Vector?

Suddenly, my eyes opened.

Are you basing the Assessment of yourself on what People are saying, on your Titles and the Size of your Congregation?

Or is God saying: “Oga, well-done, you tried?” But how about your First Love?

When you read Isaiah 6:1-18, you would see the kind of Jubilee I am talking about.

Isaiah thought he was a Great Prophet – And believe me honestly, he was!

But he looked at his Life from Isaiah Chapters 1-6; and then you will see somebody talking about the Virgin Birth, Emmanuel, Second Coming etc.

But he had his Jubilee when he saw God in all His Glory

And he said in Isaiah 6:5 – Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a People of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.

What is God’s opinion about you?

The journey to your Salvation begins when you realised that you need help. When you suddenly realised it and you have the courage to admit it – These are the way!

The Story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15:11-24 – His Jubilee came when he suddenly realised, “wait a minute, once upon a time I was a son enjoying the abundance in the house of my father. And now I am a hired servant eating with pigs. I will arise and go to my father.”

I don’t know if there is any of us who will be ready to tell God – Let me start afresh!

I have told my Spiritual children (some of them are Old now) – I said: If your Team is going to Kano (Northern Nigeria) and then you got to Sagamu Junction and branch towards the wrong direction. You will be meeting Towns along the way, but you are already heading in the wrong Direction.

If God wants to be Merciful unto you, He will call your attention to it. Because in the meantime your colleagues are already approaching Ilorin (Kwara State).

You are in a wrong firection, you need courage to turn back – All the way back to Sagamu Junction. You will arrived late, but you will still get to Kano.

Quickly, we want to cry to God and say: Father, I am not where I used to be: my hatred for sin is no longer there. I don’t Pray, Fast or Witness like before. Lord Please, bring me back to my “Original Love” that I have lost. I want my own Personal Jubilee – “Custom-Built” for me.

I know where I was with my Relationship with You; at least, bring me back to that “Original Love”.

We are going to Pray!

Help me Lord to start afresh, because that is why You gave us this Theme – “Perfect Jubilee”.

… Go ahead and Pray now for at least Thirty (30) Minutes.

RCCG 2022 MINISTERS’ CONFERENCE (DAY 2 MORNING SESSION)

THEME: PERFECT JUBILEE

MINISTERING: PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE

DATE: 5TH AUGUST, 2022

BIBLE TEXT: DEUTERONOMY 8:11-20

Let someone shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

I hope you enjoyed your Prayer Walk?

Did you Pray or you walked?

God will answer you by Fire – Amen.

Now we want to Sing the Special Hymn for the Convention.

The Tune is the same as: There is a Land that is fairer than day.

RCCG 2022 ANNUAL CONVENTION HYMN.

1. I was born a free moral agent
   Free to choose either wrong things or right
   Through my sins became slave to Satan
   Jesus bought me back through Salvation.

CHORUS:
Jubilee from above
All I lost to me now shall recover
Jubilee from on high
Join me as I sing Hallelujah.

2. Since wages of sin all round death is
   Disease, physical pain and distress
   But Jesus took stripes on Calvary
   By His stripes I was healed, wholesomely.
3. And with my sins came mental darkness
   Light of God I could not again see
   Jesus broke through the darkness for me
   I was blind but, o yes, now I see.
4. Sorrows of hell once overwhelmed me
   I was sinking deeper all the time
   Jesus brought Salvation unto me
   And its joy erupted within me.
5. Once without any hope for future
   Nothing but a very dark picture
   Christ came in to me and now I see
   Nothing but a great hope of glory.
6. I was helpless but now empowered
   By His Spirit above on me poured
   I can witness cast out bad spirits
   Raise the dead and heal all that are sick.
7. All I have lost have been recovered
   All I missed I can get fully back
   My story can now be rewritten
   For me a great bright New Beginning.
8. That is why I sing Hallelujah
   Hallelujah to God the Father
   Hallelujah to King Jesus Christ
   Hallelujah to Blessed Holy Spirit.
9. Sing Hallelujah with me brothers
   Sing Hallelujah with me sisters
   Sing Hallelujah with me children
   Sing together and make heavens ring.

… Let’s go ahead and shout a Big Hallelujah – HALLELUJAH.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

2. Then we will go for another Break and return by 7pm.

Alright! Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!

Deuteronomy 8:11-20:

11 Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:

12 Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;

13 And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;

14 Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;

15 Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;

16 Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;

17 And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.

18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.

19 And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely Perish.

20 As the Nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the LORD your God.

We started yesterday by looking at Psalms 103:1-5 – Where David said: Bless the LORD, O my Soul: and all that is within me, bless his Holy Name. Bless the LORD, O my Soul, and forget not all His benefits:

So we spoke yesterday on the issue of Gratitude – Blessing the One Who needs nothing.

We saw: “Bless the Lord O my Soul” as an Advice, as a Plea. Telling our Soul, even though Life is tough we should still be Grateful.

We also said it could be a Command: we have already made up our Mind to Bless the Lord.

We spoke about all that is within us, and we included: our Voice box, Memory, Reasoning, Understanding etc.

And we mentioned all the things we are to Bless God for and not forget all His Benefits.

It is on the issue of forgetting that we want to emphasize on this Morning.

As we look at the issue of INGRATITUDE.

In the Bible Text that we read – Deuteronomy 8:11:20; God said: I am going to Multiply you and you are going to Increase.

But, if you ever forget that I am the One doing this, and you begin think it is your Power, Wisdom, Ability that has brought you this far, then you will know He is a Jealous God.

Like some People would say, “I built this Church all by myself. I started this Branch. So it is my Church.”

Remember, no one will share in His Glory.

You can even hear some Pastors say: “This is my Church; I have laboured forty (40), thirty (30), twenty (20) years; let no General Overseer come and chase me out.”

As if it is not written in Matthew 16:18 – And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this Rock I will build my Church; and the gates of hell shall not Prevail against it.

He is the One in Charge now that you are riding a car, built two (2) houses – One here in Camp and another one in your Village; have what to eat, house full of so much food;

He says if you ever forget, I will show you that I can make an unmake!

I remembered that I told you this Story: a long time ago – I had Fasted, Prayed walking round this Camp for God’s Increase. And then at the end of the day (as a Human Being) I was talking to my Daddy: I said Daddy, with all these Labour, Nobody said “Thank You.”

He said: My son, are you complaining that they didn’t Thank You?

I said: Yes Daddy. He said, have they said “Thank You” to Me? Are they showing their Gratitude to Me their God?

Don’t you have to put Pressure on them before they shout Hallelujah to me?

But I will tell you again and again what happened in Lekki ’98 – Our biggest Outing up to that Point.

After that Program, I was walking round this Camp Praying and Thanking God for the Success of that Program. And then I got to a Particular Spot:

… I still remembered that Particular Spot where He spoke to me: And I think we should mark that Spot where God spoke to me.

Suddenly He said: Son, bend down. I bent down. He said, draw on the sand a figure of a man. I bent down, drew zero for the head, strokes for the hands and legs. And He asked me to stand up. I stood up! He said, “Wipe the figure out”.

I Pray that God will visit you before the end of this Ministers’ Conference and Convention – Amen.

And then He spoke: “You are that figure. If you ever forget who is in Charge, I will wipe you out, Nobody will remember you ever existed.”

Today there are Prophets who write to me telling me what God said concerning me. I take their Prophecies to God – “Are You the One Who sent them?”

…I don’t do anything that would offend my Daddy.

I Pray for everyone of you – You will never displease God – Amen.

Because, once God is happy with you, let the whole world be against you, you will win. But if God is against you, no matter the number of People with you, you will never win.

If you forget all that God has done for you, there are certain things that follow:

1. You may begin to treat His Commandments with levity.

… Let me hear you say: GOD FORBID!

In 1 Samuel 15:1-3, God sent King Saul on an errand – Thus saith the LORD of Hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt. Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

God said to King Saul, I waited all these years and I made you King so that you can lead my People to war – Go and utterly and destroy them all.

But King Saul did what Pleased Him – He obeyed God to a certain level and he stopped. Just like some of us do!

Even Pastors go to Church at their convenience. Ministers pay their Tithe as if God does not know Mathematics.

They say: “My Tithe has been deducted from Source.” What about the Gifts you receive? You think God does not see?

Then the Almighty God said, Oga King Saul, I made you. You were a Nobody; you yourself knew it. The day you were to be anointed you hid yourself, because you knew you were not worthy. But I made you worthy.

We even heard some People say “Without me this Parish would have closed down;” “If not for my Support, that Church Project would not have succeeded.”

As a General Overseer I have seen many People who think that without them, the work of God would not have been done.

… The Church of God is Marching On!

Some People think if the General Overseer dies today, something would happen to the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) – Na lie! The Church will move forward.

Remember the Name of the Church is – The Redeemed Christian Church of GOD (RCCG) and not “the Redeemed Christian Church of ADEBOYE.”

How many of you believe our tomorrow will be alright? – DMC FAMILY BELIEVE!

If you believe, shout Hallelujah- Hallelujah.

When King Saul forgot, he began to treat the Commandments of God with levity.

2. If you forget, you begin to treat His Anointed with levity.

I mean, if you are treating God with levity, who then is His Anointed?

In 1 Samuel 15:24-29, when Prophet Samuel has delivered the Message of God to King Saul, he said:

Now therefore, I Pray thee, Pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD. And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel. And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.

… When you forget, you begin to treat God’s Anointed with levity.

One fellow said, “I built this Church. So who is the General Overseer?” He is Nobody. And he is correct!

But he has forgotten that somebody was the Vessel God used to Anoint him.

If all of a sudden you forget Who made you a Minister – It is not “The Anointed” you treated with levity; it is the One Who called the Prophet. He is called “The Strength of Israel”.

Psalms 105:15, says: Touch not mine Anointed, and do my Prophets no harm.

3. If you forget, you are likely to lose your Position. – Very important!

When you read the Story in 2 Samuel 11, where David when comfort came, when he was sleeping when he was supposed to be at the battlefield;

He walked up and down, saw someone’s wife bathing naked in the corner of the house. He used his Position as a King to bring her to his house, defiled her and she became Pregnant.

He sent for the husband, cause him to be drunk. And that one, even in his drunken state refused to go home and sleep with his wife. And when King David saw that his secret was about to be exposed, he arranged for the death or the man.

And to cover his sin of Murder, he married the Widow. He thought Nobody saw him but God was watching.

… And He is watching you!

And so in 2 Samuel 12; God sent a Prophet to David – God said to him: And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee King over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul; And I gave thee thy Master’s house, and thy Master’s wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.

And I hope you will always remember this – If you ever get to that Stage where God begins to tell you all He has done for you, then you are in trouble.

Because, you should be the one Thanking Him – but you forgot. You have suddenly become a “Big Man”. You can no longer sing, dance and Praise God.

I have told you this Story before – I was traveling with my driver to Ibadan. I already Prayed in my room, I Prayed in the car before we took off. God spoke to me, “when was the last time we had Fellowship?”

I said Lord, early this Morning we had Fellowship. I Prayed before embarking on this Journey. And then he said, you know what I am talking about.

… Do you think you can deceive God?

God said, do you remembered those days when you used to Worship me while driving and I will join you in the car and you would need to pull over?

He said son, when was the last time that happened?

I said Lord, I now have a driver. He said, so it’s my fault for blessing you with a driver? I said Lord have Mercy on me; let me return from this Journey safely and I will never miss Fellowship with You again.

And I still remembered that night till today – I moved to the Old Auditorium ( now what we call the Children Auditorium) rolled on the floor and began to Worship:

SINGING: Only Jesus can save, Only Jesus can save Hallelujah.

… You said that casual Song, but it comes from the Citadel of your Soul.

I have not sang up to three (3) times; when He came down. And when God comes down you will know.

You will have Perfect Jubilee because your Ingratitude is going to end – Amen.

Remember, Jubilee is a Personal Matter; it is for individuals.

When you are Ungrateful, just as you could have Permanent Glory, there is something caked Permanent Bondage – And Ingratitude is top on the list if those who will be in Permanent Bondage.

Because when God discovers you are an Ingrate, He will abandon you.

The Yoruba Elders have a saying – “He that is shown Kindness but refuse to give Thanks is like an armed robber.”

Judges 16:1-end; tells you the Summary of the last days of Samson.

Samson was not just to enjoy Jubilee, but he was to bring Jubilee to Israel as a Deliverer.

Search his Life, never once did that boy say: “Thank You” to God.

A Lion roar, the Presence of God came upon him he tore the Lion.

Before his enemies could get to him, with the jawbone of an Ass, he overpowered them.

… I will be talking to you briefly about “The Jawbone of a Cow” during this Ministers’ Conference.

Samson didn’t Thank God for once.

A whole City shut its gate against him, Power came, he uprooted the gate. Yet, he never said Thank You!

That’s why he died blind – He Prayed for the Lord to restore his sight (so he could take his revenge). That’s why he died blind and Perished with Idol Worshippers.

Consider King Saul, in 1 Samuel 16:14: But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil Spirit from the LORD troubled him.

Don’t forget, God is the Commander in Chief of Heaven and Hell – He commands demons and the demons obey!

King Saul was a Madman sitting on the Throne, seeking to destroy David.

When you look at the sins of David versus the sins of King Saul; you are bound to ask Questions.

What was the fault of King Saul? – He obeyed God partially.

The Bible says in Revelation 3:15-16; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

Any Minister who does not want to be removed by God must be Hot.

I know if all our Ministers are here and not all are going to Heaven, it’s of no use.

Some are neither hot nor cold.

If you know you are not going to be hot, remove the Title now.

I am only interested in those who will be Commando’s for God; those who will be one Hundred Percent (100%) hit always.

The sin of King Saul was half obedience – He was lukewarm.

What was the sin of David? – It was Adultery, Murder, Hypocrisy.

And yet when the Man of God told David in 2 Samuel 12:7 – And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;

He repented immediately, “you mean God said all these things?” And almost immediately, the Man of God said in 2 Samuel 12:13 – And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.

Why? What was it that God saw? He saw a boy who was Grateful. He saw a boy who said in Psalms 24:1, I will bless the LORD at all times: his Praise shall continually be in my mouth.

You see, just as Ingratitude can keep you in Permanent Bondage; Persistent Gratitude can get you more than a New Beginning.

Because Jubilee is Restoration and New Beginning.

In 2 Chronicles 1:6-12, Solomon after a thousand burnt Offerings to God – saying Thank You. I don’t deserve to be King. My father is a Murderer, a mother an Adultress.

When God asked him what he wanted, he said Wisdom. And God granted him more than what he requested.

Solomon did not stop there – In 2 Chronicles 7:1-15, this time round, he offered Twenty two Thousand (22,000) Offerings. If I gave a thousand burnt Offerings the last time, now I am saying Twenty two Thousand (22,000) Thank You. Plus one hundred and twenty thousand more Thank You!

God said alright! If I ever get angry; 2 Chronicles 7:14 – If my People, which are called by my Name, shall humble themselves, and Pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their Land.

… Take Note of that!

“My People”. If only those of us in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) are Grateful People, the Problems in Nigeria will be solved!

Some of my friends have said, Daddy, call all the Christians in Nigeria to Fast and Pray for Nigeria. Are you kidding me? What of those that are not Pentecostal?

I have called a Meeting before – Let’s Intercede for our Nation Nigeria. Not for a whole day. Say four (4) hours (10am to 2pm). Oga Bishop, you are to lead the Prayer for Thirty (30) Minutes. And you, Evanglist, you are also to lead the People to Pray.

The People who were to lead didn’t turn up. Only Members of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) showed up.

But God says in Ezekiel 22:30 – And I sought for a Man among them, that should make up the hedge, and Stand in the gap before me for the Land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.

Some of us now are shaking with what is going on in Nigeria. I said so, but no one Paid attention until they said Churches must close down in Nigeria.

If God can find Grateful People among the Ministers of God gathered here today or reading now on the Label of DMC; He would hear and heal our Land – Amen.

Some of you are already saying, Daddy, let’s do something else this Morning – We have Praised God enough Last Night.

Well, today we are going to Praise Him again for another Thirty (30) Minutes.

Of course, I know it’s not everybody who would do it. But if I can just get ten Percent (10%) of you Praising God genuinely, something will happen.

So I am going to give you an opportunity – Give you another Thirty (30) Minutes to Praise the Lord.

To do it (Praise God) as if your Life depends on it.

If real trouble starts in Nigeria, you have no Places you can run to. Some Men of God are advising their Members to have Plan B – So they can check out.

Adeboye is not checking out!

Because the Holy Spirit will take Control.

Also, I have never seen Light running from darkness.

So, if something is going to be wrong with the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG); the Fire of God will burn them.

But we must settle with God.

Judges 16:20 – And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the LORD was departed from him.

When Samson said, “I will go out as at other times before,” he did not know God has left him.

Why did God leave? – INGRATITUDE!

I have said it again and again, if you ask a Student to make his Scripts, he will score himself One Hundred Percent (100%).

How grateful are you?

In the next Thirty (30) Minutes, everyone of us have to Praise God – On your face, kneeling, walking. Just Praise Him.

… And don’t forget to drop your Offering in your way out.

GOD BLESS YOU!
