SPECIAL PRAYER

PREAMBLES:

There is a Prayer that you have to Pray before we continue.

I am not quite sure that you got the Full impact of one of the Testimonies:

That Young Man said that by the time they got to the Hospital with his Pregnant wife who was about to Deliver; the wife had bled to Death.

They checked all the Vital Organs and they were all gone.

But apparently the baby inside her Womb was still there.

The Doctors said, we can try – As there is only about twenty Percent (20%) Chance to save the baby.

But by the time they brought out the baby; the mother was Revived.

Do you get that Point?

PRAYER

I want you to cry to the Almighty God and say: Father, anything that is Good in me that the devil may be determined to kill; Father bring it back to Life.

Grab it back and make my Testimony Absolutely Complete this very Day!

I don’t want to go home with “Half Testimony”.

Thank You Father!

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

And so shall it be in Jesus Name – Amen!

Well, shake hands with one (1) or two (2) People and say: “Welcome Overcomers”!

And you may Please be seated, except those born in the Month of August.

SPECIAL PRAYER FOR THE AUGUST BIRTHDAY CELEBRANTS.

If you are born in the Month of August, let me hear you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

My Father and my God, I commit all these Your Children born in the Month of August into Your Hands:

Eight (8) is the Month of a Brand New Beginning.

For these Your Children:

Let there be a New Beginning of Joy; a New Beginning of Success, of Victory, of Promotion, of Celebrations, of Anointing and of Service to God.

Let it be well with them.

And let them serve You till the End.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

Okay, Children of August shout another Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

SPECIAL DEDICATION PRAYERS FOR NEW BORN BABIES

PREAMBLES

I. Two (2) Years ago, some People came to The RCCG Annual Convention 2023 Trusting God for the Fruit of the Womb.

By the Time they came Last Year (RCCG Annual Convention 2024); they were Pregnant but the Child/Children had not come yet. And so we asked them to wait till the baby arrived.

II. Last Year (RCCG Annual Convention 2024); some People came Trusting God for the Fruit of the Womb and now their own Child/Children has come.

So, if you came two (2) Years ago (2023) and your Child/Children has come or you came Last Year (2024) and your Child/Children here; will you kindly bring the Child/Children to the Altar now so that we can bless them.

As they come, the Choir can Sing so that they can dance, and we can rejoice with them.

… Choir Song Rendition!

Now, you can see several Homes where there used to be Weeping at the end of every Month before, that my God has replaced their tears with Laughter!

You can see thousands of them here at the 3 by 3 Kilometres Auditorium and thousands of them in the Old Auditorium!

I want you to help me Stretch your hands towards these Children – Thank God for them.

Pray that the Almighty God will Protect them.

And decree that all those who are still Barren, by this Time Next Year (2026); they will come with their Child/Children.

That God will let our Joy over these “Little Ones” be Permanent.

And He will add more and more to them.

Intercede for them.

Thank You Father!

SPECIAL DEDICATION PRAYER

So my Father and my God, we just want to say Thank You:

Thank You for Answered Prayers.

Thank You for Terminating Sorrows in the lives of these ones.

Thank You for making them Fruitful.

Please accept our Thanks, in Jesus’ Name.

Father Please take care of these Children.

Let Your Joy over them last forever.

Keep Sickness away from them.

Keep Death away from them.

Lord, anoint each one of them so heavily so that they can grow up to serve You.

And those who are Trusting You for Fruitfulness; by this Time Next Year (2026), let them come with their Child/Children.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!

Well Congratulations – God will take care of your Child/Children.

I know some of you made some Pledges to God – You can drop it as you go back to your seats!

The Bible says that we are to rejoice with those who rejoice (DMC NOTES: Romans 12:15).

If you are glad to see these thousands upon thousands of New Children from Wombs that have been considered Barren – Why don’t you show some Excitement?

Why don’t you shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!

Your Joy will Last Forever – Amen!

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS

1. Next Month (September 2025) will be a Special Holy Ghost Service for those Trusting God for the Fruit of the Womb,

It is going to take Place on Friday, 5th of September 2025.

And the Theme will be: “CHILDREN OF DESTINY”.

So, if you have friends and Relatives who will require Special Anointing for Fruitfulness, inform them!

The God who has done what you have seen Today is still on the Throne!

I told you that God through His Special Grace gave me Special Anointing for Fruitfulness.

2. We have a Good Problem.

When a Pastor has more Congregation than he can Accommodate, then he has a Good Problem.

If you check this Auditorium (3 by 3 Kilometres) and Old Auditorium; it is filled to Overflowing and even causing Traffic on the Expressway.

And if it can be like this this Year (2025); then Next Year (2026) will be more because we would have Doubled.

So we have to do something quickly – And do it fast.

I. We have to build many, many more Dormitories.

For Example, if you see the Choir Stand, it was built to take ten thousand (10,000) People.

But now they have Outgrown that Capacity now – You can see some of them sitting on the Ground. Even the Cameraman cannot even cover all of them.

II. We have to enlarge the Altar in both Auditoriums – 3 by 3 and Old Auditoriums.

III. With the New Accommodations Projected, then there will come some related Developments:

☆ Our Water System that has served us more than twenty (20) Years now has been Stretched to the Maximum Limit.

So, we must develop a much bigger Water System before Next Year (2026).

☆ As we enlarge the Buildings, there will be need for an Enlarge Electricity Supply System.

☆ As we enlarge the Dormitories, we must enlarge the Sewage System.

We have a lot of work to do even before the December 2025 Holy Ghost Congress 2025.

It is a long time ago that I made this kind of Appeal but we can’t dodge it again.

So, I need some of my Children to Step forward now and assist.

I have done a bit of Calculations and realized that we are going to need several Billions of Naira.

So I am asking my children who can assist to do so – Nobody is forcing you o. My God has never let me down.

Like I told you during the Day 4 Evening Plenary Session 4 on Thursday; when the devil says you should remain Poor, you have to say: “No way”!

It takes a lot of Money to arrange something like the Annual Convention.

Just imagine the cost of Feeding this crowd – Two (2) Meals a Day for one Week?

You can’t be Poor and do this.

And that is why my God will make you very rich.

I have cried to Him (Referring to God) for Billionaires – I know He heard me and He has Answered my Prayers.

How Wonderful will it be if two (2) or three (3) of you can say: Daddy don’t announce it again. How many Billions do you need and we will give you.

But right now, I need:

I. Like ten (10) of my children that can give me one Billion Naira each.

II. Then about one hundred (100) of my children that can give one hundred Million Naira each.

III. A thousand (1,000) of my children that can give ten Million Naira each.

IV. Then I need all of you who can give whatever they have.

How many of you will say: Daddy, we love you and will take care of the situation.

My God will bless you beyond measures – Amen!

Please decide on whatever you want to do!

When sending the Cheque, put on it: “RCCG CAMP PROJECTS”.

If you like you can write at the back: “CAMP DEVELOPMENT”.

Don’t write my name on the Cheque because if you do so, I will use it for Pounded Yam.

Please do something about it quickly.

God will give you a Good Problem!

If you want details of the Account, ask those working in my Office!

3. On Saturday, Day 6; by the Grace of God by 11.00am; if anybody needs Counseling, the Laying-On of Hands or Baptism of the Holy Spirit; the Elders will be around to attend to you.
4. This Saturday, Day 6 Evening Session Plenary Session 7; the Holy Communion and Anointing Service will be taking Place from 7.00pm.

I will be looking forward to seeing you then.

… Now, we want to go to the Word of God.

We want to talk tonight about THE OVERCOMERS.

Every Overcomer in the House, shout hallelujah – Hallelujah!

Our Bible Text would be 1 John 4:4 – Ye are of God, little children, and have Overcome them: because Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.

For those of you who have been coming since Tuesday, I have made it clear that Life is War.

The Bible says in Ephesians 6:12 that we are constantly Wrestling – It’s not even against flesh and blood; But against Principalities, against Powers, against the Rulers of the Darkness of this world, against Spiritual Wickedness in High Places.

The Bible says Life is war!

In 1 Peter 5:8, we are asked to be Sober and to be Vigilant – “Be Sober, be Vigilant; because your Adversary the devil, as a roaring Lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.”

He won’t find you! Amen.

The beautiful thing is, you can become an Overcomer – Amen.

In John 16: 33, Jesus Christ said clearly – In the world ye shall have Tribulation: but be of Good Cheer; I have Overcome the world.

Life is War!

The Elders would tell you the reason why a baby must cry when he or she comes to the world, it is because the baby has come to the realization, “War has started!”

But the beautiful thing is, God says in His word that you have Won!

You are an Overcomer because there is Someone in you who is Greater than all those in the world.

Like I’ve told those of you who have been here since on Tuesday; Anytime you’re facing a war you can’t win; the proper thing to do is get an Ally – Somebody who can defeat the enemy.

The Bible says, if you are a Child of God, you have an Ally dwelling in you; who can take care of everything the enemy is trying to destroy.

I have Good News for Somebody here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: Before the Sun rises tomorrow, you will be shouting, “I am am Overcomer!” – Amen!

WHY AM I SO SURE YOU WOULD BE AN OVERCOMER?

Romans 8:31 says, What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

If we have God on our side, we have already Won.

In Romans 8:37 the Bible says, Nay, in all these things we are More Than Conquerors through him that loved us.

Do you know God lives in you?

You say, “how do you know?” Well, I know because the devil did everything he could to make you won’t be able to come here Tonight – From the Day 1, it’s being Raining. But we spoke to God and He took Control.

I decree to Somebody here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: In any way the enemy may try, you will Overcome – Amen.

Your Ally, the One who is going to give you Victory, is Someone we discussed last Month (July 2025) in the Holy Ghost Service:

He has Many Ways of dealing with Enemies:

I. If Lions come against you, He can apply what is called, “The Law of Substitution.”

Proverbs 11:8 says, The Righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the Wicked cometh in his stead.

You’ll find that in Daniel Chapter 6 – They threw Daniel into the Den of Lions; God pulled him out alive. All those who threw him in were substituted for him.

I am sure you heard the Testimony of some People on this Altar that God told that the People behind their Barrenness will be gone.

I have Good News for Somebody here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: Everybody standing in your way, before the end of this Month (August 2025) they shall be no more – Amen!

II. If they throw you into the Fire, the God who is on your side can swallow their fire.

Like in Daniel Chapter 3 – They threw Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego into the fire. The who carried them to the fiery furnace; they died!

But inside the fire, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were having a stroll with the One called Son of Man, who said He is the Consuming Fire.

Any fire that the enemy has Prepared for you, the Consuming Fire Him will consume – Amen.

Occasionally, there might be Complicated cases – The one the devil may be using against you, could be somebody you won’t even dream of.

All you need is a Word from God – Because God knows how to handle them; He can just send His Word to take care of the Problem.

I mean the Problem might be so interwoven with your Life – It might not be so easy to cut it from your Life.

Like the case of Naaman in 2 Kings 5:1-14 – God just sent His Word to Naaman to go to the River to take care of his reproach.

I don’t know how Complicated your case may be; receive a Word from the Lord Tonight – Amen.

God will deliver you – Amen!

I have very Good News for you Tonight: You are going to be an Overcomer today – Amen.

Why? Because There is something called “Generational Blessing.”

Oh, you have heard about Generational Curses – When you are a Child of God, there are Generational Blessings.

When you read Galatians 3:29, the Bible says, And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s Seed, and Heirs according to the Promise.

If you are a Christian, the Blessings of Abraham are yours – “And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s Seed, and Heirs according to the Promise.”

We want to take a look at Abraham so that when you see the Family you belong, then you will be able to understand, you are bound to be an Overcomer.

1. For example, immediately the devil heard that God had blessed Abraham in Genesis 12:1-3; he declared war.

The moment he heard that Abraham would become the father of many Nations (Genesis 17:4); the first thing he did was to strike him with Barrenness.

The one who would be father of Nations cannot give birth to one child.

But in Genesis 21:1-7, Abraham overcame.

Because he overcame; and you are one of his Seeds, in the Mighty Name of Jesus, you will Overcome – Amen!

Barrenness means Fruitless Efforts.

In the Name that’s above every other name, you will never fail again – Amen.

2. Satan attacked Isaac with Barrenness, and he overcame – Genesis 25:31.
3. He attacked Jacob with barrenness, and he overcame.
4. Joseph came out of the belly of Jacob. Satan attacked Joseph again and again.

Thank You Father.

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

He said: “By this time Next Year (2026) you will Stand on this Altar and your Testimony will be;

I used to know “Ceaseless Sorrow”, but now I know “Ceaseless Joy” – Amen.

In Genesis 41:1-44, with everything the devil tried, Joseph overcame.

I have Good News for you; it doesn’t matter how troublesome your Life has been, you will begin to sing a New Song from now on – Amen.

Thank You Father.

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

He said, your Hope has drained you almost to zero.

He says, before the end of this Month (August 2025); you will shout Hope Rising – Amen.

5. Out of Jacob came somebody called Judah. And Judah became the father of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Bible tells us in Revelation 5:5 – And one of the Elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath Prevailed to open the book, and to lose the seven seals thereof.

Now that Overcomer, the Original Overcomer is the One who said, “In the world, you will have Problems, but be of Good Cheer, I have overcome the world.” (DMC NOTES: John 16:33)

As long as Jesus lives, you will Overcome – Amen.

Thank You Father.

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

And what you are saying to God quietly in your heart is that God must speak to you directly Tonight.

He asked me to tell you: I have heard you; and I want you to know that your Case has been Settled – Amen

Thank You Father.

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

He says, as far as you are concerned, the Shaking is over – Amen.

Thank You Father!

… I’m sure you’ll Prefer to hear from Him than to hear from me, anyway.

The Lord said I should tell Someone here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

He said that you had a terrible fight in your Dream, then you woke up sweating.

The Lord asked me to tell, “the Problem has been sent back to the Sender – Amen.

Thank You Father.

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

He says, the Opposition against you is highly Organized.

He asked me to tell you: At the next shout of Hallelujah Opposition would crumble – Amen.

Let me quickly go through Probably some of the things we have discussed over the week:

1. Physically, you are an Overcomer.

Why? Because Jesus Paid a very terrible Price for your Healing – We discussed that Yesterday (Day 4). Read full Text of that Message on the Label of DMC.

1 Peter 2: 24 says: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Those of us who were Yesterday (Day 4), we we told the devil, “you cannot steal our Healing.”

And those of you here today would Pray and say: Father, in the Mighty Name of Jesus, don’t let the Sufferings of Jesus be in vain over me.

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

2. Materially, you are to be an Overcomer:

Because Jesus Paid for your Prosperity.

In 2 Corinthians 8:9, the Bible says: For ye know the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became Poor, that ye through his Poverty might be rich.

Those of us who were here Yesterday (Day 4); we Prayed, “No more Poverty in our lives.”

Those of you here now, inclusive those reading on the label of DMC: you too can join us and say: In the Mighty Name of Jesus, I refuse Poverty – Amen.

3. Maritally, you are to be an Overcome:

Because in John 15:1-15, the Bible made it clear: If you would just cling unto Jesus, you would bear much fruit.

You would be Fruitful in such a manner that those who are mocking you would begin to say: “Your God is Good!”

4. Spiritually, it is Settled that you are an Overcomer:

Because in Ephesians 1:18-23, the Bible made it clear, And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the Head over all things to the Church.

That means, all evil forces are under the feet of Jesus – And we are part of His body.

No matter how low you are in Christ, you are not lower than His feet.

So all these Witches and Wizards, they are under your feet; and they will remain under your feet – Amen.

Thank You Father.

The Lord says after Tonight, the very Song of Somebody here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC will be Singing is:

Victory, Victory – Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah;
Victory, Victory – Hallelujah;
Jesus conquered the devil pata-pata.

Would you like to do something childish tonight as an act of Faith?

I want you to Tap the Ground with your feet and say: I decree, all the Problems in my Life are trampled under my feet now – Amen.

5. Career-wise, you are meant to be an Overcomer:

In John 12:32, the Bible says, And I, if I be lifted up from the Earth, will draw all men unto me.

As Jesus is drawing you up, you will keep on going onward because His Hands are Everlasting Arms.

I decree in the Name of the One who sent me: From today onwards, you will always go Higher – Amen.

• You are Planned to be an Overcomer;
• You will be an Overcomer.

… But there are certain things you must do.

CERTAIN THINGS YOU MUST DO.

1. You must Love God:

Why? Because Romans 8: 37 says, Nay, in all these things we are More Than Conquerors through him that loved us.

He first loved us – “Through him that loved us.”

How does that apply to our being Overcomers?

In Proverbs 8:17, God says, I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.

“Do you want my love?” Love me!

Love is a 2-way traffic – He says, I love those who love me.

2. You must Submit yourself Totally to God:

Completely, no Pretense.

James 4:7 says, Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

The moment the devil knows that you’re fully submitted to God, if he tries to attack you, he knows that God will back you up.

3. You must Abide in God:

Psalm 91:1-8 tells you, to abide under the Shadow of the Almighty God, you must dwell in the Secret Place.

Every day of your Life, you must be in Christ.

• Don’t be a Sunday-Sunday Christian.
• Don’t be a Christian only in Church, and something else at home or outside the Church.
• Don’t stray from God; Stay close to Him.

Psalm 23:6 says: Surely, Goodness and Mercy shall follow me – For how long? All the days of my Life.

And what will I do? I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Stay close to Him, don’t stray from Him – If you stray away from God, you’ll put yourself in danger.

A Family traveled during COVID-19 – Everybody stayed together, except one fellow who sneaked out. By the time she returned, she had caught the virus.

A whole family Protected by the Almighty God; but because of the one fellow who strayed, they got into the hand of the devil.

I Pray for Somebody here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: You will never stray away from God – Amen.

4. Hearken and Obey Him:

I told those of you who have been here from the beginning of the Convention, inclusive those who have read the Message on the Label of DMC: You may never need to fight if you hearken unto the Lord.

Life is War, War is made up of battles.

There is no way where you won’t have to fight any battles.

But if you hearken diligently to the Word of the Lord, you may never need to fight any battle at all – Read Deuteronomy 28:1-13

Thank You Father.

I think I have to say Amen to this before I tell you.

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

I am quoting Him. He said, “There is a Massive Breakthrough coming your way.”

… And this is the Part-2 of it:

He says you will not miss it – Amen.

• It’s coming.
• It’s Massive;
• And God is saying, there is nothing you can even do to avoid it – Amen.

If I were you, I will shout Hallelujah loud and clear – Hallelujah!

In Deuteronomy 28:1-13, the Bible says, the LORD shall cause thine Enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.

He says if you hearken diligently to Him, you would not even have to fight any battle at all.

Some of you would remember the Story of one fellow h It happened in one Country.

We’ve built a Church there, and we wanted to Dedicate the Church and the date had been fixed.

And then I got a Phone call, “Daddy, we have a Problem – “A very influential man in the Country said we would never Dedicate that Church. He said it would be over his dead body.”

When they told me, I said, “He said so?” I said that’s okay, he has Signed his own Death Warrant -:I mean, he says unless he dies, we can’t use the Church.

So they said, “Daddy, what shall we do?” Nothing!

I decree right now; anyone who would say you won’t reach your Goal, the Lord of Hosts will take care of him – Amen.

To cut a long Story short; few days before the Dedication date, they were going to hold a very Important Meeting – to decide, whether we are going to use the Place, or not.

He got ready to go, and he was wearing his trousers – He has already put his leg in one side of the trousers; and his second leg, instead of putting it on the other side of the trousers; mistakenly he put it where the former leg was, and the legs got stuck.

As he was trying to remove one of his legs, he fell, knocked his head against something.

By the time they took him to the Hospital, he was dead.

I have told you the Story before.

The first time I told it to somebody, he said, “Daddy Ha, you’ve killed him.”

I said, me? I’m here in Nigeria, that fellow is several hours by Plane away.

He killed himself!

Anyone who says you would not serve God; anyone who says he will stand between you and Jesus Christ; in the Name that’s above every other name, the Ground that swallowed Korah, Nathan and Abiram, will Perform its work again – Amen. (DMC NOTES: Numbers 16:1-33).

… You must Hearken and Obey.

Thank You Father.

I think I have to say Amen to this one also;

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

He says, you will never be Disgraced again – Amen.

5. Believe in God Completely.

1 John 5:4, the Bible says, For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the Victory that overcometh the world, even our Faith.

Believe in God, He’s not a man that He should lie.

He said all men can be liars, but Himself would be true (DMC NOTES: Romans 3:4).

He doesn’t gain anything by lying to you.

I’ve told you that there are various reasons why people lie – None of them apply to God:

• Some People lie because they want to avoid Punishment.
• Some People lie because they want to get something from you.
• Some People lie because they want Promotion.

I. When we talk about lying to avoid Punishment: Who is going to beat God? Who is going to Punish God?

II. When we talk about lying to get something from someone: What s it that you have, that God wants that He would have to lie to you? (Laughs).

III. When we talk about lying because of Promotion: Who a going to Promote the One who is called the Most High?

The One who is Higher than the highest; the One who says, Heaven is my Throne.

Oh, by the way, Thank God for the Song by the Royal Fathers Tonight.

Some of you may not know the implication of what they said – They said:

• He’s the King of Heaven, who puts the Crown on our head.
• He s the One who makes Kings, Kings!

And who are you that you want to Promote Him?

There is no reason at all for God to lie – Once He spake, it is done. Believe in Him!

There were People who thought I was stupid, when God brought me to this Jungle:

• At the Headquarters of Highway Robbers.
• At the very Habitation of Pythons.

And He said, “This is the City which I Promised you.”

I rejoiced, because I trust Him – Once He speaks, it is done.

He has spoken well concerning you Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC – Trust Him, and Believe in Him.

According to Mark 11:22-23 – if you trust God, you can move any Mountain:

And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have Faith in God. 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.

And every Mountain in your Life, will jump into the Sea today – Amen.

6. Learn to Praise; Learn to Worship God:

In Psalm 18:1-3, David said: I will Love thee, O Lord, my Strength.

Then he began to call God by His Name – He began to Eulogize Him:

The Lord is my Rock, and my Fortress, and my Deliverer; my God, my Strength, in whom I will Trust; my Buckler, and the Horn of my Salvation, and my High Tower. I will call upon the Lord, who is Worthy to be Praised:

He said, “so shall I be saved from mine Enemies.’

In John 4:23-24, He says, God wants you to Worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.

Then he went on to say, “…for the Father seeketh such to Worship Him.”

But the Hour cometh, and now is, when the True Worshippers shall Worship the Father in Spirit and in Truth: for the Father seeketh such to Worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that Worship Him must Worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.

The moment you begin Praise and Worship Him, the Bible says, He’ll arise.

And the Bible says, let God arise, and His Enemies will scatter (DMC NOTES: Psalm 68:1).

Why do you think I keep on asking you to shout hallelujah?

I’ve told some of you before; many times when they want to start a Service like this, many of them would bind the devil, they would bind all demons.

I’ll say, “you bound him Yesterday, you mean he broke lose Overnight?

If he’s so slippery; how am I sure if I bound him at the beginning of the Service, he would not be lose before the end?

But I know one thing, “Nobody wants to stay where they are Praising his or her enemy.”

Satan does not want to stay where they are shouting hallelujah!

And you know there are occasions, when it is difficult even for you to Pray. If you can’t Pray, Praise Him

I’ve told you Testimonies before of my children who remembered that I said that, “When Prayer fails, Try Praise!”

Praise will never fail.

The Madman of Gadara in Mark 5:2-20; he couldn’t Pray. The demons on him were so many, they won’t allow him to Pray.

At least he knew he could fall on his feet and Worship God.

As soon as he fell before Jesus and Worshipped Him, Jesus took over the fight and delivered him out of two thousand demons.

God would take over your battles Tonight – Amen!

And if a Madman can Worship God, how much you who is still alive and well?

I remember the Story of one Bank Manager somewhere in Ijebu Ode (Ogun State Nigeria); he ran mad.

I mean, he was completely mad – He was beginning to break down doors and windows.

So they got the Police to capture him – Six (6) hefty Police Men.

They bound him, and they were taking him to Aro in Abeokuta (DMC NOTES: “ARO” is the name of a town just Boundary of Abeokuta Ogun State Nigeria where a Psychiatric Hospital is located).

Somehow as they got close to the Redemption Camp, he begged them, “Please take me to the Camp: just let my feet touch the Ground of the Camp – I know I’ll be free.”

And the Police Men looked at him; his face was just as wild as anything.

They brought him here, because he kept begging them.

When they brought him here, I said, what’s the Problem? Why have you brought this man here?

They said, he told us: “If my feet can touch this Ground, I know I’ll be free.”

I said, in that case release him.

They bound his hands and feet – They said, we can’t loose him; we know what we went through before we caught him.

He said bring me here, and you brought him here – Let him step out of the car.

They said, will you Pastor, accept responsibility? I said, I accept!

On behalf of all of you, I accept responsibility, that God would set you free Tonight – Amen!

As soon as they removed the chains, and he stepped on this Ground; he became Normal – I didn’t have to Pray and I didn’t have to say anything.

I’m not saying anything yet; but I am decreeing, in the Name that’s above every other name: From now on, you will be Overcomers – Amen.

7. You must Testify:

Because He is already doing quite a lot in our midst Tonight.

Oh, I didn’t tell you how many People He said He was going to Heal Tonight?

He told me He would Heal Seventy three Thousand (73,000) People Tonight – Amen!

You can check yourself – Check your body; many of you don’t know it, but He has done the Healing.

Thank You Father.

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

He says you have been saying, “Oh God, You know without You I am lost.”

And the Lord asked me to tell you: “I know! And I will carry you – Amen.

The Bible says in Revelation 12:11, And they Overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb, and by the Word of their Testimony; and they loved not their lives unto Death.

You know the Problem with many of you – The reason why we get our Miracles and then we lose it?

… It’s because we don’t Testify.

We want to hear the Testimonies of others; and we want to keep quiet about our own.

If you don’t Testify, the devil may try to come and steal your Miracles.

But after you have Testified, if the devil tries to take away your Miracle, you would be able to say loud and clear, “You can’t do that! I have already Testified.”

In the Name that’s above every other name, the Miracles you’ll get Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC; will be Permanent – Amen.

8. Finally, You must Overcome Hell:

All we are doing would be of no Value if you still don’t make it to Heaven.

The Ultimate Overcomer is the one who makes it to Heaven.

Some People may tell you there is no Heaven – That Heaven is just somewhere.

Don’t argue.

But I know one thing; There is a Land called the Endless Day – That’s Heaven.

I know that Apostle Paul, who told us about how we are seated in the Heavenly Places, also said, I have not yet attained, I’m still Pressing on. And one day he now said, I have made it. I have fought and I’ve won. It’s now time for my Coronation.

I will see you in Heaven! That’s where we would have our Ultimate Celebration – Amen.

Let me tell you; Hell exists – The fire keeps burning there.

And I’ve asked God to give me an example of Hell before. And He has shown me several examples.

Maybe I will just share one of them with you, so you will know the reason why you must not go to Hell.

I was traveling between Ilorin (Capital City of Kwara State) and Ibadan (Capital City of Oyo State) – And in those days the road was narrow; and there was one Tanker carrying fuel to the North and there was a Trailer carrying cows to the South.

The two vehicles always take a big part of the road – So the rest of us in cars, make way for them.

The two of them collided; and the Tanker caught fire.

And the fire was flowing to the Trailer carrying cows – And I looked into the faces of those cows, there was no escape.

They saw the fire coming, but there was nothing they could do – And they all burnt to death.

God said, that’s an example of Hell:

• Those who go there, they can’t come out.
• They are inside fire, they can’t escape it.
• The unfortunate thing is that, they will be there for ever.

You are not an Ultimate Overcomer unless you miss Hell.

I know my Son (Reverend Joseph Olaiya) has done a great job Tonight – Read full Text of Talk 1 on the Label of DMC.

Many of you have given your Life to Jesus Christ Tonight.

But there are some of you who didn’t respond and some of you came after he gave the Altar Call.

You must beat Hell.

And the only way you can do that, is if you Surrender Genuinely your Life to Jesus Christ and He begins to dwell in you.

• Then you can say, “I am of God, and I have Overcome: because greater is He that is in me, than he that is in world.
• Then you can say, “Christ in me, is the hope of Glory.”

ALTAR CALL

So I am begging you, Surrender your Life to Jesus Christ today, if you want to be an Overcomer.

You can beat Hell by Surrendering your Life to Jesus Christ Genuinely – Come to Jesus now.

And there are some of you who are Backsliders; and you want to Return to Jesus.

I am going to count from one (1) to fifteen (15), begin to come come now.

Cry to the Almighty God and say: Father; Please help me. I don’t want to go to hell. Save my Soul.

I want to be an Ultimate Overcomer:

Forgive all my sins, Lord, come and dwell in me, be my Lord and Saviour and I will serve You for the rest of my Life.

If you are a Backslider, ask God to be Merciful unto you and take you back. Ask for the Grace never to backslide again.

Brethren, let us intercede for these People; that the Almighty God will have Mercy on them and give them Genuine Salvation.

Pray that they will never go back to the world and they will never go to Hell.

Thank You Father.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

PRAYER FOR SALVATION

Father, once again, I want to say Thank You for Your Word.

Thank You for these People who have come forward to Surrender their lives to You.

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

Write their names in the Book of Life and let them become Part of the Family of God.

Please Lord, don’t let them ever go back to Hell.

From now on, when they cry to You, Please answer them by Fire.

And let them serve You till the very end.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name, we have Prayed – Amen

Tonight, in all our lives – Those of us who are here right now, and those connected to the Programme all over the world, including those reading now on the Label of DMC:

Father, Please do something New.

Glorify Your Name!

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Before you sit down;

In one of the Testimonies we heard Tonight, a woman talked about a crisis they had. And somehow she managed to get through.

And I Prayed for her child in my Mother Tongue – I said, “Loni, loni” – meaning, “Today, Today!”

When you are in crisis you forget Grammar.

I want you to lift your voice to the Lord, and call on Him in your Mother Tongue.

Loni, loni; Oluwa wa se Iyanu ninu aye mi – DMC NOTES: Today, Today; Oh Lord Perform a Miracle in my Life.

Thank You Father.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

The Almighty God will grant your Request Now!

Your Breakthrough will come Now!

Your Victory will come Now!

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Now go ahead and give the Lord a big shout of Hallelujah – Hallelujah.

And then shake hands with two (2) or three (3) People, say: “Welcome Overcomer – God Bless You!”

BIRTH REPORT

By 6:00pm this Evening, additional seventeen (17) children has been born – Fourteen (14) boys and three (3) girls.

Now we have a Total of Fifty (50) Babies – Thirty (34) boys, sixteen (16) girls.

Let the Boys shout Praise the Lord!

Let the Girls shout Hallelujah!!!

Something tells me this is going to be a Convention you will never forget – Amen.

ANNOUNCEMENT

As you can see, the New Auditorium (3 by 3 Kilometers) is already opened to take the Overflow.

Tomorrow it would be Open also.

We want to Thank God for what He has done thus far.

Today we need to do a little bit more of Housekeeping + Tomorrow we will enter into Battle Mode.

This is the Convention of the Overcomers.

From tomorrow, we will begin to do serious Warfare.

But before we go into the Ring; forgive me for saying it again and again that I used to be a Boxer. Because God uses everything to His Glory.

As a Boxer, before you enter into the Ring with your opponent, Particularly if you are going to become the Winner; there are certain things you must do.

When you get to the Ring, you fight fifteen (15) Rounds of three (3) Minutes each.

By the time you round up, all the time put together is one (1) hour.

But there are several Months or Preparation before you go to the Ring.

And my Coach used to tell us – “All Judges and Referees could be biased. So don’t go in there to win on Points – You must win by a Knockout!”

My Coach used to tell us – Knock out your Opponent thoroughly, that he would not want a Return Match. That he would say, I don’t want to fight you again.

We are in the battle of Life – We must win so thoroughly that we will remember we are Overcomers.

I want to talk to you as your Daddy, and as your Coach – There are certain things you have to take Note of if you are to forever be an Overcomer.

Life is not a joke – It is Warfare we are involved in.

… It is not a joking matter – You have to ask yourself:

EXAMPLES

1. MOSES:

How can somebody like Moses – Specially loved of God.

Before he was born, Death was waiting, and God Preserved him.

He was trained in the house of the enemy, and used to rescue a Nation.

And he led a Nation for forty (40) years – Fighting battles upon battles on the way.

Yet he didn’t reach the Promised Land.

I Pray for every one of you here, including those reading now on the Label of DMC: You will Win all the way – Amen.

2. SOLOMON:

How can someone like Solomon, who was loved by God from Birth:

• A Man who was considered the wisest, apart from Jesus Christ.
• A Man who was commended by God for asking for something good (Wisdom).

This same Man in the end said, “Vanity upon Vanity, all is Vanity” (DMC NOTES: Ecclesiastes 1:12).

I am not here to tickle you Tonight, inclusive those reading on the Label of DMC – I am here by the Grace of God, to do my duties.

OVERCOMING SELF

My Topic today is, “Overcoming Yourself.”

Proverbs 16:32 says, He that is slow to anger is better than the Mighty; and he that ruleth his Spirit than he that taketh a city.

1. YOUR EARS:

You have to do something about your ears; If you are going to be an Overcomer.

That is where you will start.

Why? It’s because Romans 10:17 says, So then Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

And you know what? Fear also comes by hearing.

Read Numbers 13:26-33 and Numbers 14:1-4, you will see how a whole Nation trembled in fear because ten (10) Spies came back and said, the Land is flowing with Milk and Honey, no doubts; but it is not for us.

Listen to me carefully Tonight, because in Deuteronomy 28:1-13, the Bible says; how you listen is how it will be well with you:

And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the Voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all His Commandments which I Command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on High above all Nations of the Earth:

You may never need to fight any battle for you to be an Overcomer.

Because His Word says: “The LORD shall cause thine Enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.” (DMC NOTES: Deuteronomy 28:7).

Provided you hearken diligently unto the Voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all His Commandments which I Command thee this day.

Christianity is not a joke:

• You have to Listen.
• You have to Observe.
• And you have to Do what God Commands you.

Then, not only will you Win without a fight: The LORD shall make thee the Head, and not the Tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; (DMC NOTES: Deuteronomy 28:13).

When People come to Church and it’s time to sing Choruses, they sing and dance very well but time for Sermon, they fall asleep.

Why have you come?

Faith only comes by hearing the Word of God – You’ve come to find out what God is saying.

Because just a Word from God can settle all your Problems.

The Bible says, He sent his Word, and healed them, and delivered them from their Destructions (DMC NOTES: Psalm 107:20).

An Uncle of mine was a great Engineer – Things used to be very good with me.

At some point things turned – Life became so bad, that he has to be using his wife’s wrapper to sew trousers and top.

Then he decided, “Death is better than Shame.”

Being a funny Man, he said: “I will go to the Church, sing, dance, attend my own Funeral Service; then come back home and die.”

He attended Church Service, but while he was in Church during Sermon, the Preacher spoke about Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego:

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O King (DMC NOTES: Daniel 3:16-17).

The Pastor made one Statement, he said: When Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego told the King that their God will deliver them, they didn’t know how God was going to do it.

When he heard that he said, truly, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego did not know how God would deliver them; so I refuse to die. I don’t know how God will Change my situation, but I am going to trust Him.

And the Tide turned for him!

The day he was sharing his Testimony, he has just bought fourteen (14) cars for his Staff in one day.

There’s Someone here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC, I don’t know how and when you got into that Problem; but you are Out, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

When we started the Holy Ghost Service in London, we call it Festival of Life there.

I was facing a lot of Resistance in those early days – I was saying Lord, maybe You want me to confine myself to Nigeria.

Apparently, in those days before the Programme, we will invite all the Church Leaders for Dinner and one of the Church Leaders will be asked to Exalt us.

In one of the Dinners, one of the Leaders was asked to speak; I was crying to God, “Daddy speak to me.”

Suddenly the Man who was Preaching stopped, diverted to something else in the Book of Revelation that had nothing to do with what he was Preaching at all.

He said, the Summary of it all is that, “At Last we Win!”

Ha! Exactly what I wanted to hear.

Today I decree to Somebody here, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: At Last you Win – Amen!!!

Train your ears – Be careful what you listen to.

If you listen to all the News of the world, by now you can tell they never say Good News – All you will hear is about those who died, those who were Kidnapped, etc.

• Do they tell you how many children were born?
• Do they tell you how many People got married?

It’s only in the Gathering of Believers that we hear Good News, because the Gospel of Jesus Christ is Good News.

I have Good News for Somebody here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: Your tomorrow will be alright – Amen.

2. YOUR EYES:

You cannot win if you don’t train your eyes to look at the Right thing, and to Perceive it.

You see, to a large extent, Victory depends not on what you see, but how you see it.

In the Story that I mentioned in Numbers 13:27-33 and Numbers 14:6-9;

• Ten (10) of the Spies saw themselves as Grasshoppers, and unable to take the Land.
• The remaining Two (2) Spies brought Good News, and saw the Giants as bread to be conquered.

Two Groups of people – One Group saw themselves as Grasshoppers; the other Group saw themselves as Overcomers.

How do you see yourself?

• Are you a Grasshopper?
• Or you are an Overcomer?

When the Lord brought us here in 1983; before then He had Promised me a City.

This was the den of Highway Robbers and home of Pythons – Nobody wanted this Place.

God brought me here – He said Son, this Place is the City I Promised you.

Even when everybody passing by that time said it was foolish having a farm here; I didn’t see the Armed Robbers, I didn’t see Pythons – Even though they were moving all over the Place, I saw a City, and I saw all of you here.

How many of you can see that your tomorrow will be alright? The DMC Family Members.

If you believe your tomorrow will be alright, let me hear you shout hallelujah – Hallelujah!

What you see is what you are going to become.

Our First Auditorium by the Expressway was 100 Meters by 50 Meters – And my children said, Daddy we have arrived, let’s wall it round.

I smiled! Wall what round?

When two (2) years later, we moved to another Auditorium; another two (2) years after that, the Place became the Children Auditorium.

We continued to enlarge till we built the Old Auditorium.

People said, Oh, we have finally arrived – I told them, we have not even started.

Before long we moved to 3 by 3 Kilometers Auditorium – The People said, “Now, we have arrived!” But I said, we haven’t even started.

How many of you believe you are going to be very great? The DMC Family Members.

Can you see it? So shall it be, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

What determines whether or not you will be an Overcomer is: Are you looking at the Mountain or you are looking at the One who has been even before the Mountains began?

Psalm 9:1-2 says, Lord, thou hast been our Dwelling Place in all Generations. Before the Mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the Earth and the world, even from Everlasting to Everlasting, thou art God.

That is why the Bible says in Mark 11:22-23; And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have Faith in God. 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.

Have Faith in God, then tell the Mountain to move!

Don’t look at the Mountain, look at the Mountain Mover; because Mountains may differ, but the Mountain Mover is one and the same.

• Let the Lions come, He will deal with the Lions.
• Let the Bears come, He will deal with the Bears.
• Let Goliath come, our God will also deal with Goliath.

How many of you believe that your tomorrow will be alright? The DMC Family Members!

How many of you believe your Mountains will be gone before tomorrow? The DMC Family Members.

Be careful what you see; because what you see will determine how far you will go.

2 Corinthians 3:18 says, But we all, with open face beholding as in a Glass the Glory of the Lord, are Changed into the same Image from Glory to Glory, even as by the Spirit of the LORD.

“Daddy, you say we have not even started; when are we going to start?” I will tell you when we get there!

3. YOUR MOUTH

You have to take care of your mouth if you are going to be an Overcomer; because your mouth will determine your Victory.

Proverbs 18:21 makes it clear: What you say is what you will have – “Death and Life are in the Power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.”

In Numbers 14:26-28 God said, “Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have Spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:”

• If you tell God, “It is impossible” He will say fine, to you it is impossible.
• But if you let God hear you loud and clear, and you say Father, “I am going to be an Overcomer for ever.” He will answer and say, Amen!

Revelation 12:10-11 says, And they Overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb, and by the Word of their Testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the Death.

What is coming out of your mouth?

Some of you, the Word of God will come – “There is Someone here, it will be well with you.”

Someone will grab it and run with it, and begins to Testify.

And God will surely back His Word up – unless it didn’t come from Him.

If God said it; it is going to happen – Amen.

I remember the Testimony of one of my daughters who came for Holy Ghost Service and the Word of God came, “There is Someone here going for Visa Interview – You already got it!”

And she knew, that Word was for her because she had a Visa Interview the following Monday.

When she got there the woman at the Embassy said No, you are not Qualified.

My daughter said, No, it can’t be! “What do you mean?”

My daughter said, my Daddy said, I have already got it.

The woman laughed! “Who is your Daddy?”

She was expecting to hear, a Governor, a Senator but my daughter said, my Daddy is Pastor Adeboye.

“If your Daddy is a Pastor, what has that got to do with me? Please leave here.”

So my daughter collected her Documents, muttering under her breath – “But my Daddy said I already got it.”

As she turned to leave, the Woman at the Embassy said, because you made me Laugh I will give you the Visa.

They don’t give you Visa because you made them Laugh!

She got the Visa because God has Spoken.

And I am telling Someone here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: The Favour you don’t deserve, you will receive – Amen.

Your mouth exposes your Faith.

For the Bible says, out of the Abundance of the Heart the mouth speaks.

It is your Faith that makes you whole – That Faith is expressed by whatsoever comes out of your mouth.

Instead of sitting down to speak rubbish or gossip; use your mouth to Praise God.

David said in Psalm 34:1, I will bless the LORD at all times: his Praise shall continually be in my mouth.

He didn’t say, “I will grumble at all times.”

Rather: I will bless the LORD at all times.

• Your mouth is for Praising God.
• It is to call on Him in the Day of Trouble.
• Your mouth is for casting out Demons; and for Decreeing.

And I decree to you right now: In the Name of the One who has called me, you will be an Overcomer – Amen.

4. YOUR HANDS

Because your hand is such a Powerful instrument for war.

If you read Ephesians 6:11-18, the Bible says you should put on the whole Armour of God.

What do you use to wear your Armour? Your hands!

And if you look at your hands:

• The Left Hand is used to hold the Shield;
• While you use your Right Hand to hold the Sword.

The two (2) Major Weapons require your Hands!

Be careful what you do with your hands if really you want to be an Overcomer.

Bible Scholars say when you clap your hands, you put your Enemies between your Palms and jam them.

So, go ahead and clap your hands to the Lord!

Palm 47:1 says, O clap your hands, all ye People; shout unto God with the Voice of Triumph.

… You can shout with the Voice of Triumph!

God said something very serious about your hands in 2 Corinthians 6:17 – Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,

“… Touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.”

God says, keep your Hands clean, touch not any unclean thing:

• Don’t Sign anything False.
• Don’t forge Documents.
• Don’t touch what He says you should not touch.

He says, if you do not touch unclean things, He will receive you.

The Bible says in Romans 8:31, What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

If God resist you, how can you ever win a Battle?

When I talk about the Relationship between me and my Daddy, some People say I go to the extreme.

For example, when I told them the Story of what happened in the University;

I wrote a Personal Letter, there were Envelopes on my table, and I had opportunity by virtue of my Position to use it.

As I stretched my hand to take an Official Envelope, God said, don’t take it – The Envelope is Official Envelope.

My hand froze! – “Daddy it doesn’t cost so much.”

He said, if it doesn’t cost much, go and buy your own.

People say, God is not that strict – I am not arguing; but He is strict with me and I like it.

I’ve told of a time I disobeyed God and He Punished me.

When I complained, “Lord, this Punishment is too much for the offense”

He said to me: Son, you are Special to me, so I will not tolerate rubbish from you.

If He allows you to do whatever you like, fine! But I know, the Child a Father likes, He chastises – The closer you are to Him, the Stricter He’ll be.

Keep your Hands clean and He will receive you.

By the Grace of God, I have kept my Hands clean; and you are hearing some of the Testimonies – I Thank God for all He has been doing.

I remember when I went to Malaysia – The Brethren came out to Welcome us and there was quite a crowd.

So I could only wave to them from the car.

But one man Stretched out his hand and touched me, and he was glad – “I touched Daddy GO.”

Immediately, he ran home – Because he had a child who was born Lame.

He laid his hand on the child and said, Stand Up and walk.

Of course, nothing happened.

He turned to walk away, then he heard a sound.

He turned to see, behold, the child was running towards him – Hallelujah!

In all Humility, I raise my had to all of you now, including those reading now on the Label of DMC: Receive your Miracles now, in the Name of the One who said, keep your Hands clean – Amen.

… Touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you!

5. YOUR LEGS

Control your legs.

Isaiah 52:7 says, How beautiful upon the Mountains are the feet of him that bringeth Good Tidings, that Publisheth Peace; that bringeth Good Tidings of Good, that Publisheth Salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

What are you using your leg to do?

• Are you going out on Evangelism?
• Or you are using them to go wherever you want.

*He said you should use your legs to go to all Nations – Go ye therefore, and teach all Nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost (DMC NOTES; Matthew 28:19).

Please Pardon me for saying I used to be a Boxer – I am a Boxer for Life.

When you have been a Boxer for some time, occasionally, you’ll suffer a wound – Maybe from being hit hard by your opponent and you are Probably Hospitalized.

The wound may heal, but the scar is never like real flesh.

When your opponent wants to fight with you, and he is ready to win, he’ll look for videos of your Previous fights.

If you were injured in any of the videos, he will take note of that Particular Spot.

When he is in the Ring with you, he looks out for the spot where you have a scar.

While fighting, he will focus on the scar, so as to give you every blow on that Spot.

Then the scar will bleed, and blood will flow out.

To save you, the Referee stops the fight, and your opponent wins!

When your opponent wants to win you, he looks for your Weak Point.

You want to be a Champion for ever? Do something about your Weak Point.

The Weak Point Of Moses was Anger:

Way back in Egypt, he was defending a Jew – All he wanted to do was to defend; but his anger erupted, and he killed that fellow.

Satan recorded that one – “This Man has Anger issues.”

Follow his Story, you will discovered that what the devil was trying to do: getting him angry one more time – And Moses was dodging the blows!

Then one day in Numbers 20:1-12; the People were thirsted and needed water. God told Moses to gather the People – Now Speak to the Rock, do not strike the Rock.

Remember there was a time they needed water before this time, God said he should strike the Rock.

Now, God said, speak to the Rock – And Moses lost it:

And Moses and Aaron gathered the Congregation together before the Rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the Rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the Congregation drank, and their beasts also (DMC NOTES: Numbers 20:10-11).

… Satan rejoiced! Finally, he had gotten Moses.

In the Name that’s above every other name, Satan will not Rejoice over you – Amen.

Many of you say, the Problem you have is that you get angy once in a while.

And you say, “I only get angry when someone gets me mad.”

Is being Mad a Good Thing?

Maybe I should remind you of the Story of one Man – The only Problem he had was ‘a little bit of anger.’

He bought a new car, took it home.

The little son jumped out, picked something, scratched up and car.

The man saw the scratch – “Who scratched this car?” The boy said he is the one.

The first thing that entered the Man’s hand was Hammer – He used it to smash the sons hands out of rage.

By the time he realizes himself, the son’s hand was bleeding seriously.

He quickly rushed the boy to the Hospital.

The Doctors said, his hand would have to be Amputated.

When the boy woke up, saw his hand, he said: “Daddy, when will my fingers grow again?”

The Man got home, he said, let me even look at what this boy wrote on the car.

And he saw, “Daddy I Love You.”

Of course he couldn’t take the pain – He committed Suicide.

I want you to Pray Tonight: Almighty God, don’t let me destroy myself.

You are Welcome, in Jesus’ Name.

By 6:00pm this Evening, the number of babies already born here is thirty three (33): Boys twenty (20), Girls thirteen (13).

Let the Boys shout Praise the Lord!

And let the Girls shout Hallelujah!!!

Good News also; the Drama Group have put up a very beautiful Film about Overcomers.

The Film will be relayed Tonight after we have finished the Programme – It is going to help you really Pray.

ANNOUNCEMENT

As you can see, the Old Arena is already full. And so, from tomorrow – Wednesday, Day 3 6th August 2025, the New Arena (3 by 3 Kilometers Shimawa) will be opened.

But I will still be Ministering here in the Old Arena.

OVERCOMING THE WORLD

We are here in the Gathering of the Overcomers.

Anytime we talk about the Gathering of the Overcomers, we want to use another Title – “The Gathering Of Champions.”

You will find three (3) Categories of People in the Gathering of Champions:

1. Ex-Champions:

Those who used to be Champions or Overcomers, but they’ve lost their Crowns.

And they’ve come to the Convention of the Overcomers, hoping to regain what they have lost.

2. Potential Champions:

You will find those who are fighting to battles.

They come to the Gathering of Overcomers, trusting God that they will win.

May I Pray for such People here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: Right now you are fighting some battles in your Life; even before tomorrow Morning, you will be Singing Victorious Songs – Amen.

3. Reigning Champions:

These are the ones who are really Champions; and People who are Overcomers – And they know they are!

• So you have Ex Champions.
• You have Potential Champions
• And you have Reigning Champions.

There is one way by which we know the Reigning Champions – People who have just won the battle! They are always Noisy.

When your Team scores a goal, it doesn’t matter who you are, your team scores a goal, you will shout!

So, let all Overcomers shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!!!

Tonight, I will be as brief as Possible – And my duty is to:

1. To help the Ex-Champions to become Champions again.
2. To encourage those who are fighting – Potential Champions that there is a way they can win.
3. And then to tell the Reigning Champions how to remain Champions.

PROPHESY

Thank You Father.

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

He said: “The Good News you have been waiting for is waiting for you at Home – Amen!”

My Bible Text would be 1 John 4:4:

Ye are of God, little children, and have Overcome them: because Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.

If you look at that Passage alone, it tells you straightaway – The one who would be an Overcomer must be a Child of God: because He is a Father.

Every one of us in the hand of the Almighty God, we are little children – Because compared to the Ancient of Days; the oldest one amongst us is His little child.

He said, “you are little children, and you have Overcome ‘them’.”

What does He mean by “Them?”

That implies there will be battles – Either that you have fought and won, or that you are even fighting.

Then He says the reason you’ll win is because, “Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.”

This Passage is telling you that Life is war! And war is made up of battles.

And as it applies in war; if you are facing a war that you are not sure you can win, you look for an Ally – Somebody who is Bigger than your enemy to help you.

The Ally is dwelling in you, and He is far, far Superior to your Enemy.

So this Passage is saying:

• Hey! You are little children.
• You have an Ally.
• He is dwelling in you;
• And He is far, far, Superior.

In 1 John 2:14-15, the Bible says, Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any Man love the world, the Love of the Father is not in him.

When He is talking about the Enemies, He used one word to describe the enemy – “The World’.

… To be an Overcomer, you must Overcome the World.

He went on to say: For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the Pride of Life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

He that loves the world shall Perish; but He that loves not the world abideth forever.

For you to fully understand this, you need to go back to Genesis 2:7 – And the LORD God formed Man of the dust of the Ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of Life; and Man became a Living Soul.

The Problem actually started from the very beginning, because you are in a dangerous Composition between the Earth (dust) and the Spirit of God.

When Adam sinned, God said to him in Genesis 3:17-19, “You are from the dust and to dust you will return.”

And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the Ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy Life;

Ecclesiastes 12:1-7, Then shall the dust return to the Earth as it was: and the Spirit shall return unto God who gave it.

… At he end of the day, the dust will return to dust; and the Spirit will return to God.

WHY ARE WE IN A WAR?

Because in the world – represented by dust, it is constantly trying to pull you down. But the Spirit of God is constantly trying to lift us up.

So, there is a constant battle between wanting to go close to God, and wanting to go the way of the flesh.

Don’t let the world drag you down!

• When we talk about living the Overcomer’s Life as a True Christian;
• When we talk about you resisting everything the world has to offer, so that you can go the way of the Lord, and remain forever an Overcomer;

The Question that will come to Mind almost immediately is: “Is God against Enjoyment?”

• Because the Life of the Overcomer is a Life of Sacrifice.
• It is a Life of Consistent Discipline.

I have told you again and again that I used to be a Boxer – To become a Champion requires a lot of discipline:

• You would wake up while others are still Sleeping.
• You would run kilometers.
• You are Shadow Boxing – Beating the air.
• You are careful of what you eat, etc.

And then you become Champion!

But when you become Champion, that is when the Problem really begins because everybody wants to Challenge you and take your Crown.

So, it takes extra effort to remain a Champion than to become one.

DOES GOD HATE ENJOYMENT?

Proverbs 24:13 says, My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste.

… It means God wants you to eat well.

But He tells you immediately in Proverbs 25:27, It is not good to eat much honey: so for Men to search their own Glory is not Glory.

1 Corinthians 6:13 says, Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

• The body that you are Pampering and making up is going to the Ground one day;
• Take care of what is in you – The Spirit. That is the one that is going to Heaven.

You can wake up in the Morning, stay without food till 12:00 Noon.

Let the Pastor declared a Fast the next day; what is going to wake you up? Hunger!

… Because the body does not want you to become an Overcomer.

What about Sleep?

Psalm 127:2 says, It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his Beloved Sleep.

God is not against sleeping – He s the One who gives His beloved sleep.

Yet some People still find it difficult Sleeping.

Meanwhile, there are some of you here, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: you can Sleep Standing!

I remember years ago when I was learning to Pray at Night – I would kneel by my bed to Pray. In the morning I would wake up on my knees (Laughter).

I had to decide to be climbing the Stairs to Pray at Night so that when I doze off while Praying and fall on the Ground, I will get up.

But He says if you Sleep “Too Much”, you will be in trouble.

Proverbs 6:10-11 says, Yet a little sleep, a little Slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy Poverty come as one that travelleth, and your want as an Armed Man.

Some of you can discuss Politics, Dports, and would be talking rubbish for five (5) hours, yet you won’t doze. But let us say there is a Vigil; after 1am and you are still awake, you would begin to look at the Pastor – “how long before we close?”

The flesh does not want you to be an Overcomer.

For example, is God against Prosperity? No!

Job 36:10-11 says, If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in Prosperity and their years in Pleasures.

The devil will tell you to Pursue Money and Prosperity; and do anything to be Rich.

God warns you in Matthew 16:26, For what Profit is it to a Man if he gains the whole world and loses his own Soul? Or what will a Man give in Exchange for his Soul?

At the end of the day, it is the end that matters.

1 Timothy 6:7 says, For we brought Nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry Nothing out.

If you are Pursuing Wealth at the expense of your Soul, that will be Stupidity.

If you begin to behave like the people of the world – Lying, Cheating, and Compromising so that you can be seen in big flashy cars and all manner of things of the world:

• What happens when you die?
• How much of it can you take away?

EXAMPLES OF GREAT LOSERS

For those of you who may want to consider your ways; let me remind you of some Great Losers we’ve never considered:

1. Esau:

He was the firstborn to get a Double Portion.

But in Genesis 25:29-34, he was hungry. His brother (Jacob) Prepared a Good Meal.

Esau said to his brother, give me some food.

That one said, you have what I need, “give me your Birthright in exchange for my food.”

He said you can have the Birthright – Just give me food.

So Esau gave his Firstborn Inheritance in Exchange for food.

He could have said, “Whatis that? So you want to take something Precious to me because of food?

In Genesis 27:30-40, Esau wept when he discovered that he has lost the Precious thing he has ever had.

And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that hath taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? Yea, and he shall be blessed.

• How far will you go to make Money?
• How many girls are there selling their bodies to get a Promotion?
• Why would you want to become a Loser for something the world can offer?

1. Lot’s Wife:

Destruction was at the door, the Almighty God sent His Angel rescue Lot and his family.

The Angels took them out of Sodom, but Lot’s wife remembered the beautiful things she left behind, looked back and became a Pillar of Salt (Genesis).

Thank God Lot didn’t know when the wife looked back.

Iam talking about those who want to Backslide.

It doesn’t pay to Backslide – Those of us who are Standing, the Bible warns us to take heed so that we won’t fall.

DMC NOTES: 1 Corinthians 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

3. Gehazi:

Naaman who got Cleansed brought all manners of Good Things to the Man of God, to say ‘Thank You.’ The Man of God said, Thank you all the same, but I don’t want your Leprosy.

But Gehazi said, my Master does not want all these Good Things, I want them.

He got money, Clothes; he had big Plans of living big but he ended up becoming a Leper (DMC NOTES: 2 Kings 5:1-end).

Consider how a Great loser Gehazi became – He was a Servant of Elisha, who got a Double Portion of Elijah. If he had waited, he would have received a Double Portion of the Anointing of Elisha.

Instead, he got Leprosy.

4. Judas Iscariot:

He was the Greatest Loser of all.

I mean, he was a Treasurer of the Lord Jesus Christ; but he Preferred the world, and he ended up hanging himself (DMC NOTES: Acts 1:15-20).

I Pray for every one of you listening to me Tonight, inclusive those of you reading this Message now on the Label of DMC: You will never become an Ex-champion – Amen!

Love not the world and the things that are in the world – All these flashy things will pass away.

SOME EXAMPLES OF GREAT OVERCOMERS

1. Elisha:

In 1 Kings 19:19-21, Elisha was already Wealthy. God called him to serve Him, and he brushed the world aside and followed God.

• At the end of his days, in 2 Kings 13:14-21, even his dead bones raised the dead.
• He turned his back to the world, Wealth, Riches, and everything, and he served the Lord.
• It wasn’t long that the King called him his father.
• And the rich and the Great Woman of Shunem begged him to eat in her house.

I am talking to you as your Daddy – I know that it is not easy to turn your back to the world and focus on God.

Take my word for it – It Pays to turn your back to the world and focus on God.

2. Peter:

In Luke 5:1-11, after that massive Harvest of fish that came Miraculously;

• He left everything and followed Jesus Christ.
• In Acts 5:12-16, his Shadow healed the sick.

Brethren, I want you to leave this Convention and become “True Overcomers”.

If you are already an Overcomer and you allow what the world offers you to take your eyes off Jesus Christ, you will end up a Loser.

If you take your eyes off the world now and turn your gaze to God, you will become an Overcomer again.

If you are an Overcomer now and you want to remain an Overcomer forever, cling to the One who has made you an Overcomer.

Let your focus be on things above; not on things beneath.

This will be a Convention that will make you an Overcomer Permanently if you would do what God wants.

There is sorrow in being an Ex-champion!

In the Name that’s above every other name, all of you who are Backsliders, who are no longer what you used to be in the Lord, God will Restore you today – Amen.

If you have not even given your Life to Jesus Christ, 1 John 4:4 says “ye are of God, little children.”

That is why you can Overcome the world – Because Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.

• You can only become an Overcomer if Christ is dwelling in you.
• When Christ is in you, you have the hope of Glory (DMC NOTES: Colossian 1:27)

For the rest of us, we have to renew our Determination to follow God and God alone.

At the end of our Prayer Tonight, we are going to be singing a Song: “I Have Decided To Follow Jesus.”

ALTAR CALL

All of you who would want to be Born Again, if you want to give your Life to Jesus, come now.

If you have Backslidden, and you want to return to the Almighty God, come and cry to Him.

The Sorrow of Backsliding is not an easy thing at all;

• Come and cry to Him for help and Salvation.
• Come and cry to Him for the Restoration of Fellowship with Him.
• Come for Real and Genuine fellowship, and Relationship with the Almighty God.

Make this Day your Day – A Day when you can say, I am of God and I have Overcome the world: because Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.

Cry to Jesus now and say: Lord have Mercy on me, save my Soul, come and dwell in me as I want Genuine Salvation.

Forgive all my sins Lord, come and be my Lord and xome and be my Saviour.

I will serve You for the rest of my Life – Just take over, Lord.

If you are a Backslider and you want to return to Him say: Lord take me back into Fellowship with You.

Come and dwell in me once again – I will serve You for the rest of my Life and I won’t go away from You anymore.

The rest of us, Please let us Stretch our hands towards these People and Intercede for them.

Pray that the One who saved your Souls will save their own Souls also.

Pray that God will give them Genuine Salvation.

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

Thank You Father.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

So shall it be in Jesus’ Name – Amen.

Sing the Song with Determination, and let it be your Song for the rest of your Life.

I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS

… A Song by Cedarmont Kids ‧ 1993

I have decided to follow Jesus;
I have decided to follow Jesus;
I have decided to follow Jesus;
No turning back, no turning back.

Tho’ none go with me, I still will follow,
Tho’ none go with me I still will follow,
Tho’ none go with me, I still will follow;
No turning back, no turning back.

My cross I’ll carry, till I see Jesus;
My cross I’ll carry till I see Jesus,
My cross I’ll carry till I see Jesus;
No turning back, No turning back.

The world behind me, the cross before me,
The world behind me, the cross before me;
The world behind me, the cross before me;
No turning back, no turning back.

Amen!

Now, the Choir can sing the Modern Version; you can rejoice.

Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
