OPENING PRAYER

Father, we just want to Worship You. We Bless Your Name; that Wonderful Name – The Name of Jesus.

We Thank You our Saviour, our Healer, our Deliverer, our Provider, our Defender. Our King of kings, our Lord of lords. Our Friend, our Husband, our Soon Coming King. Glory be to Your Holy Name!

Thank You for what You did on Monday (Day 1), Thank You for what You did on Tuesday (Day 2), Thank You for what You did on Wednesday (Day 3), Thank You for what You did on Thursday (Day 4). Thank You for what You did yesterday – Friday (Day 5). And Father, Thank You for what You will do tonight – Saturday (Day 6). Accept our Worship, in Jesus’ Name!

Tonight, my Father and my God, in the lives of every one of Your children, do something Special.

At the end of it all, let Your Name be Glorified.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Well, let someone shout hallelujah + Hallelujah!

I want you to Prophesy again to two (2) or three (3) People and tell them – Neighbour I love you; but I am the one getting the Best tonight – Amen.

And then you may Please, be seated.

You know there are Testimonies, and there are Testimonies!

I heard a Testimony tonight and I almost jumped up and shout. But I had to remind myself; “everybody is looking up to you ooo. You are the Daddy, so you must behave like Daddy”.

A Boat exploded, and hands were flying, legs were flying. And a man (alone) came out without a scratch because he is Anointed.

Ha! Let me hear somebody shout hallelujah – Hallelujah!

God is going to Anoint someone tonight inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC for Miracles – Amen!

It’s good to belong to a Good Company – Thank God for the Power of the Anointing.

BIRTH REPORT:

More Good News! Today, Eighteen (18) more Children have been added to us; and the Girls are determined! Seven (7) Boys and eleven (11) Girls.

And so as of tonight, we have Eighty four (84) Babies: Thirty eight (38) Boys and forty six (46) Girls.

Well, let the Girls shout Praise the Lord! And let the Boys shout hallelujah – Hallelujah.

… Don’t worry Boys; we still have from tonight till tomorrow morning. Miracles can happen.

Glory be to God – Hallelujah!

Do you know that Music is deeply connected to anything Spiritual? – Wrong Music invites Demons; Good Music invites Angels.

One of my children phoned me this afternoon, he said, “I want to hear your voice, I want to be sure you are alive.”

I am alive! No! God didn’t kill me overnight. By the Grace of God, the One Who knows all things knows I rely on Him alone.

And since you Prayed last Night, that if he is not of God, kill him. But if he is of You, Multiply his Power Sevenfold: get ready for Miracles – Amen.

Alright!

1 Corinthians 11: 26-30

26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.

27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.

29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.

30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

I have told you before (and it’s something I’m sure you know) that the Quality of a Meal depends on the Ingredients of the Meal. And it depends therefore on the Wealth of the one Providing the Meal.

Because it is how rich a man is that would determine the Ingredients he can buy!

And then it depends on the Cook – Because the Ingredients might be Good; but the Cook might be bad.

When you are talking about the Meal Provided by God, then you know definitely: the One Providing the Meal is the One Who says in Haggai 2:8, Silver is Mine, gold is Mine.

He is the One who said in Psalms 50:10-12, all the Beasts of the field are Mine; the cattle upon a thousand hills, birds, everything, I own them all.

So if He needs something to cook with, He can just pick anyone.

When it comes to the ability of the Cook, the One Who is Providing the Meal tonight is the One Who has the ability to Change Stones to Bread – The devil knew He could do it!

He is the One Who can take a look at Ordinary water and Change it to the Best Wine!

That’s the Cook we are talking about – You can’t beat Him!

He is the Richest and He is the Best.

Now, What are your Expectations when you Eat and Drink?

1. You want your hunger satisfied; You want your thirst satisfied. And many atimes you eat for Strength.

I mean, in Acts 9:17-19, the Bible tells us that after God opened the eyes of Saul of Tarsus, He gave him food to eat, and he received Strength.

In 1 Kings 19:4-8, God fed Elijah twice and the Bible said he gained so much Strength from two (2) Meals that he was able to travel forty (40) days and forty (40) nights without eating again.

Let me assure you of one thing – The Strength that you need for the rest of your Journey in Life, God will give you tonight – Amen.

Now, when you go to eat, Particularly in a Doctor’s house, you might expect, in addition to satisfying your hungry, your thirst, Strength for your body; you might even expect Healing.

I mean, you are the Guest of a Doctor – After eating and drinking, while you are discussing, he might Prescribe something for your Healing.

But the One Who is Providing the Meal tonight is also called, the Doctor or all doctors.

Exodus 15:26 says, I am the Lord that healeth thee.

So when you come to the Lord’s Table, you get Healing, you get Strength, you get Satisfaction. But then you get something Extra:

2. And that is that you are reminded that you are Specially Loved.

Because John 3:16 says clearly, 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.

And then Jesus Christ said in John 15:13, Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his Life for his friends.

He gave His Life, so that you can come to the Dinning Table of the Almighty God, and He can say: “Take, eat, this is my Body broken for you”.

His Body is broken for you because He loves you. And He can say: “Take, drink, this is my Blood shed for you”.

We come to the Holy Communion Service to be reminded that we are loved Specially.

But then He says, every time you eat and drink, do this on Remembrance of me.

We remembered His Sacrifice, but we also remembered His Promise.

He made a Promise to His Disciples before He left, in John 14:1-3. He said, In my Father’s house are many Mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to Prepare a Place for you. And if I go and Prepare a Place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

The Holy Communion is a very Peculiar Meal; it reminds you that you are loved:

I. That Somebody loves you so much, He died for you. He allowed Himself to be beaten, so that He can say, “by His Stripes, you are Healed.”

II. He allowed His Blood to be shed, so that you can then come, drink the Wine and say, “this is the Blood that He shed for you.”

3. And to remind you that He is coming back for you.

Several years ago, when we just set out as General Overseer (my wife and I) and things were tough – Physically tough, Materially tough, Spiritually tough. Because many of the People who were supposed to be helping were almost openly Praying that we would fail.

Something kept us going when we considered all things – We were comforted by one thing: “One day the Lord will Return, and all these Problems will be over!”

You know, I know without any doubt, there is Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC; it doesn’t matter what you are going through; one day, the Lord will Return – Amen.

… And I Pray you will go with Him – Amen.

The Holy Communion Meal is so important, so Powerful, that the Bible says, don’t take it Unworthily – It is a very Precious Meal as it costs Jesus Christ His Life.

He warns that it could kill!

If you eat this Bread unworthily, drink this Blood unworthily, He said you could die.

The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 10: 21-22 – Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be Partakers of the Lord’s Table, and of the table of devils.

Do we Provoke the Lord to Jealousy? are we Stronger than he?

You cannot be drinking the cup of the Lord and the cup of the devil at the same time. You cannot be dinning with Jesus and at the same time dinning with the devil.

He says if you do that, you are Challenging God.

And then He asked a Question: “Are you Stronger than God?”

So, if you are going to Partake of the Holy Communion, you must make up your Mind – Publicly or Privately, you will have no Communion with Forces of Darkness – No way!

One Traditional Ruler in Ekiti State (Nigeria) years ago, a Child of God; became King. And then the Leaders of the various Secret Societies came to him and said: you know you are King over the whole Town? He said, Yes! They said, we need to let you know that you must be Part and Parcel of all of us.

And he said to them, what exactly are you saying?

You have to join us, attend our Meetings – Don’t worry, we meet at Night.

He said to them, “you mean I will be King during the Day, and one of you would be King during the Night?” Well, if you put it that way!

He said to them: The God who made me King is King during the Day and He is King at Night! And since I am representing Him, “I would be King during the Day, and I would be King during the Night.”

You say you are a Christian, but you say because of your Place of work or your Position in the Society, or your involvement in Politics; you have to drink certain cup in Secret; and then come and drink the Cup of the Lord – You are asking for very serious trouble!

The Bible says, if you drink this Cup Unworthily, it can kill you!

And then one young man came to me and said Sir, I have been taking this Holy Communion all these days unworthily as you call it; and I am still alive!

So I was inspired to tell him, that there is something worse than Death.

And I told him a Story of once I went to Kirikiri Maximum Prison (as a Preacher of course). And after the Service we gave some Inmates Group of Counselling.

And one man came to me and said Sir, I was Sentenced to Death thirty-three (33) years ago and I am still here. He said, whenever they want to execute somebody, they do it at Night; between 2am and 3am.

So he said, “when we hear footsteps at Night, we know they have come for somebody: by tomorrow we won’t see that fellow.”

He said, “for thirty-three (33) years, I have been waiting for footsteps!” He said Sir, I have never been able to sleep until it’s almost 4am; because by then I know, they are not coming for me today. He said Please Pastor, use your influence, tell them to kill me, so I can go!

I said, Ha! Why don’t you say, “Please, tell them to release me?”

He said, release me for what? Thirty-three (33) years? He said, I won’t even be able to know the way to my Town anymore!

Things have Changed in thirty-three (33) years – All my friends, they won’t even recognise me. “Use your influence, tell them to kill me.”

There’s something worse than Death!

And in the Name that’s above every other name, that thing which is worse than Death will stay away from you – Amen.

Don’t eat the Holy Communion Unworthily:

• If you are still sharing the cup of the devil, don’t share the Cup of the Lord.
• If you are not a Child of God, don’t Partake of the Holy Communion.
• If you have Someone who has offended you so badly, that you said you will never forgive; don’t eat the Holy Communion.

It has the Power to Heal, the Power to Strengthen, the Power to Deliver. It has the Power to do all manners of Miracles. But it also has the Power to kill.

So, I want you to be ready to come to the Table tonight after you’ve made up your Mind that from now on, you will never again have anything to do with the devil.

ALTAR CALL

And so if you are here tonight inclusive those of you reading now on the Label of DMC and you are not yet a Child of God and you want to give your Life to Jesus Christ; He is here! His Blood would wash away your sins, and would give you opportunity to become a Child of God.

If you are a Backslider, you can return to Him now and He will restore you.

If there is somebody who has offended you, you must forgive now!

You don’t want to eat a Meal that will either kill you or give you something that is worse than Death – You don’t want to eat that kind of Meal Unworthily.

So if you want to give your Life to Jesus Christ, come forward now! The Holy Communion can give you things far Beyond your Expectations. But you must eat it Worthily.

Okay! Cry to Jesus Christ, tell Him Please, give Genuine Salvation. Destroy every Link between me and the devil. From now on I want to live for You and for You alone. Save my Soul and I will serve You for the rest of my Life.

Let the rest of us Stretch our hands towards these People and Pray for them – That God will give them Genuine Salvation tonight. So that they will be True Children of the Living God.

Let’s Pray for them!

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

PRAYER FOR SALVATION

My Father and my God, I want to Thank for Your Word; and I want to Thank You for these People who have responded to the Altar Call.

Father Please, receive them, have Mercy on them, save their Souls, let Your Blood wash away their sins, write their names in the Book of Life and let them become True Children of the Living God.

And from now on, anytime they cry unto You, Please answer them by Fire!

And give them the Grace to serve You for ever and ever.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Now I want to Rejoice with all of you who have Genuinely Surrendered your Life to Jesus Christ.

I want to assure you, by the Grace of God that from now on, I’ll be Praying for you.

So I will need your names, your Address and your Prayer Requests.

God Bless You!

HOLY COMMUNION SERVICE

… Now, we are about to go into the Holy Communion Proper!

Tonight, when you take the Bread, your Prayer would be:

Father; let my body become like Your Body. So that I don’t ever know Sickness again.

Let my body become like Your Body, that anyone I touch would even Receive Healing.

Do you know somebody Pointed out the fact that none of the Apostles was sick – As long as they had Jesus Christ with them.

If they had been sick, the Bible would have told us. The Bible told us when the Mother-In-Law of Peter was sick.

They killed almost everyone of them; and the one that they couldn’t kill (John Beloved) died of Old Age, without Sickness.

So, when you eat the Bread tonight, your Prayer would be: Let my body become like Your Own, Jesus.

… And when it is time to drink the Wine I will tell you how Pray!

Now, while I was Preparing for this Service, as I was Praying – Overwhelmed by the fact that Someone really loves me, God gave me a little Song that the Choir will be singing as they are serving the Elements.

SPECIAL HOLY COMMUNION HYMN

1. Somebody loves me,
   Somebody loves me,
   Jesus Christ loves my Soul ooo;
   While I am Dining,
   Dining with Jesus,
   Jesus Christ loves my Soul.
2. Someone is Coming,
   Jesus is Coming
   Coming soon for my Soul ooo;
   While I am Dining,
   Dining with Jesus,
   Jesus’ Coming for me.
3. Heaven awaits me,
   Jesus awaits me,
   Jesus awaits my Soul ooo;
   While I am Dinning,
   Dining with Jesus,
   Heaven awaits my Soul.
4. Sing Hallelujah,
   Shout Hallelujah,
   Sing loud above my Soul ooo;
   While I am Dinning,
   Dining with Jesus,
   Shout loud Hallelujah!
5. Hallelujah – Father!
   Hallelujah – Jesus!
   Hallelujah – Holy Ghost ooo;
   Sing Hallelujah
   Shout Hallelujah
   Shout Great Hallelujah!

ADMINISTERING THE HOLY COMMUNION:

As we Eat, Pray that your body would become like that of Jesus Christ – Healthy, Strong, Overflowing with Healing Virtues; so that anybody who comes in Contact with you would receive Healing.

“The Lord Jesus Christ, the very Night in which He was betrayed took bread: And when He had given Thanks, He broke it, and said, Take, eat: this is My Body, which is broken for you: this do in Remembrance of me.”

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit – Amen.

I am sure you know the reason why we wait to eat and drink together? Because it is written in the Bible that we must wait. He said that if you want to eat before the others, then you better eat at home. The eating must be done together, the drinking must be done together, for everything to have the same Power and effect.

Thank You Jesus!

As we Drink the Wine tonight, your Prayer to God will be that: He will fill you to Overflowing with His Life. So that for the rest of your Life, you will be Healthy, Strong and Powerful.

“After the same manner also He took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the New Testament in My Blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in Remembrance of me.”

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit – Amen.

Thank You Father, Thank You Lord. Glory be to your Holy Name.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

And so shall it be, in Jesus’ Name – Amen!

ANOINTING SERVICE

In Psalms 23:5, David said: Thou Preparest a Table before me in the Presence of mine Enemies: thou anointest my head with Oil; my cup runneth over.

The Overflowing comes with the Anointing – The Beyond Expectations comes with the Anointing.

That’s why tonight, we’ll move Straight now to Anointing you with Oil.

As you get Anointed tonight, your Prayer to God will be: As You Sealed that Your Son with the Anointing, so that Death could not take him, that Explosion could not touch him, that River could not drown him.

As I receive the Anointing tonight, seal me for Miracles; so that whatever even Death may be expecting concerning me, Death would fail.

… Thank You very much Choir! You will continue to sing as we Proceed with the Anointing.

God Bless You!

ANOINTING SESSION….

Alright! Let’s Stand on our feet!

You are going to Pray now as if your Life depends on it – So Pray this Prayer with all your Heart.

Before the Day of Pentecost, the Apostles were hiding from the Enemies.

But when the Fire came that day and sat on each and every one of them, they became Unstoppable!

Your Prayer today is going to be: Father; because of this Anointing, from now on, let me become Unstoppable.

RCCG 71ST ANNUAL CONVENTION 2023 (DAY 4: EVENING SESSION – DELIVERANCE SERVICE)

THEME: BEYOND EXPECTATIONS

MINISTERING: PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE

TOPIC: BEYOND DELIVERANCE

DATE: 10TH AUGUST 2023

BIBLE TEXT: ACTS 8:5-8

Thank You Lord!

SONG:

You are the Mighty God
The Great I AM
Hallelujah, Hallelujah;

You are the Mighty God
The Great I AM
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.

OPENING PRAYER

King of of Glory, the Lord Strong and Mighty. The Lord Mighty in battle, the Lord who has never lost a war, te Lord of Hosts Himself; we Worship You. Accept our Worship, in Jesus’ Name.

Thank You for Monday (Day 1), Thank You for Tuesday (Day 2), Thank You for yesterday (Day 3), and Thank You for tonight (Day 4). And Thank You in advance for tomorrow (Day 5). Accept our Worship, in Jesus’ Name.

Even as Your children sang, tonight Prove Yourself. Show the whole world that You are the Almighty God.

Arise tonight Lord, and scatter all the Enemies of Your Children.

In Jesus’ Marvellous Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Let your Amen be louder than that of your Neighbour – Amen!

Again, you are going to Prophesy to one (1) or two (2) People and say: Neighbour, I love you; but my Surprise from God tonight will be bigger than yours – Amen.

Thank You Father!

And then you may Please, be seated.

• God Bless You (Amen).

BIRTH REPORT:

I have Good News for you: today Fourteen (14) more Babies have been born – seven (7) Boys, seven (7) Girls.

Bringing the total Babies to Forty nine (49) – Twenty one (21) Boys and twenty eight (28) Girls. So the Girls are still leading.

Let the Girls shout Praise the Lord! And let the Boys shout hallelujah – Hallelujah.

… Don’t worry Boys, we will catch up. Don’t worry!

Tonight we are talking on: BEYOND DELIVERANCE.

Acts 8:5-8

5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.

6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.

7 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.

8 And there was great joy in that city.

There is going to be Great Joy here tonight (inclusive for those reading now on the Label of DMC) – Amen!

Let me hear your Amen loud and clear – Amen!

Now, when we talk of Deliverance we are basically talking about Freedom from Demons; Demonic Forces – Freedom from anything that has to do with the devil.

I. And the Demonic Forces could be just One (1) – Like in Mark 1:23-27.

And it is interesting that God called Demons, ‘Unclean Spirits’.

So there is a link between Dirtiness and Demons.

II. A Demon could be More than one – Like in Luke 8:1-3.

It talks about Mary Magdalene who had seven (7) Demons only.

III. Or the demons could be Thousands – Luke in Mark 5:2-13.

Talking about the madman of Gadara – In his own case, he had a Legion of Demons.

But whether the Demons are one (1) or seven (7) or thousands; there is Someone Who is called The Deliverer. And I am sure you know His Name – JESUS.

Now, let me hear you shout His Name – JESUS!

So when we talk about Deliverance basically, we are talking about Deliverance from Unclean Spirits, from Demonic Forces.

But Deliverance offers you much more than just Freedom from Demons:

1. It offers you Freedom from Harmful Habits.

For example in Mark 5:5, talking about the madman of Gadara, the Bible says he was always cutting himself with stones. He was doing something that was destroying him.

That is why you find People who have found out, that without any doubt “smoking is dangerous – it can kill” but they keep on smoking. You find a Doctor smoking.

I think on one occasion they asked a Doctor, “you know this thing can kill, why are you still doing it?” He said, Yes! Man is going to die by something anyway. So he said, if he is going to die by enjoyment. He calls smoking ‘enjoyment’. He says, what is the Problem?

And believe me honestly, Deliverance can deliver you from Adultery and Fornication (Destructive Habits). Because in 1 Corinthians 3:17, the Bible made it clear: if you defile the Temple of God, God will destroy you. And it says your body is the Temple of God.

2. Deliverance can give you Freedom from Wrong Association, Wrong Company.

The madman of Gadara was living in the Graveyard, keeping Company with the Dead.

It will interest you to know that in Proverbs 21:16, the Bible says that a Backslider is Living in the Congregation of the Dead.

If you have backslidden, you are remaining in the Congregation of the Dead.

Which is why when it is Altar Call Time tonight; if you know that you are backsliding run away from the Company of the Dead – Come back to God.

1 Corinthians 15:33 tells us that: Evil Communication corrupts Good manner.

That means you are Fellowshipping with the wrong kind of People, you will soon become like them.

The Elders have a saying, “the Sheep that is Fellowshipping with dogs will eat feces”.

Proverbs 13:20 tells us clearly that if you walk with Wise People, you will be Wise; “but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.”

If your friends are fools and you keep on associating with them, the Bible says destruction is waiting.

… But Deliverance offers you more than that;

3. It offers you a Restoration of your Destiny.

Before you were born God had a Plan for your Life.

He said, Before I formed you in the belly I knew thee; and before you came forth out of the womb I had already set you apart for a Purpose – Jeremiah 1:5

But then many People come into the world and they deviate; and their Destiny becomes truncated.

But Deliverance can restore your Destiny.

For example, in the case of the madman of Gadara we were talking about, Nobody would have thought that madman was born to be an Evangelist. But when Deliverance came and he said: Lord, I will go with You wherever You go; the Lord said, No! Go and fulfill your Purpose! – Your Purpose is to be an Evangelist.

I have Good News for Somebody here tonight inclusive all those reading now on the Label of DMC, your Destiny that is being truncated shall be fully Restored – Amen.

Some of you have heard the Story before; of a young man – Brilliant young man. A student of Medicine at the University of Ibadan. His father fought with another man – He wasn’t there when they were doing their fighting and the other man Placed a curse on the father and said, “by the time I finished with you, Nobody will ever remember you ever came to this world.”

4. Incidentally, Deliverance can Take you Out of any Family Curse.

So let me use the opportunity of tonight to say that if there are any Generational Curses in your family; by the Authority of the One who is called the All-Sufficient God, I destroy it – Amen.

And as soon as that man Pronounced the curse; less than two (2) weeks later, the man he fought with died. So all the children came home to bury their dad. And the eldest of the children had just returned from Germany, and bought a new car.

On the way, after the burial of the father, the car had an accident, and the boy died!

They brought the News back home, the mother heard the News, collapsed and died! The children came to bury their mother, on their way back, another accident and the eldest sister in the family died and on and on!

Until one day, the man who Placed the curse saw this young man – The last one left, Student at the University of Ibadan, College of Medicine. And said “Ha! There remains one! This one is still living – Before I killed this one, I will torture him a bit.”

I decree today that, that “Sworn Enemy” of your family, by the time you get back home, he would be gone – Amen!

So he did something and the boy became crazy. Got back to the Campus, gathered all his books together and all his clothes and set them on fire.

Of course, they took him to Psychiatric Hospital and loaded him with drugs. And they said he can now go back to School but he has burnt all his Properties.

So he went home to see if he could get some money from his father’s farm. And that man saw him again: “Oh! You are still around?” He added Petrol to the fire. The boy returned to the Campus and things got worse.

To cut the long Story short, after a long while something told that boy: Your case is not Natural, it is not for drugs. You need to come in contact with the Lord of Hosts.

So they brought him to this Camp. By the time we saw him, his eyes were crimson red – Because he had not been able to sleep for days.

By the Special Grace of God, he gave his Life to Jesus Christ. The Almighty God intervened and somehow we were able to support him and he finished his Doctorate Degree.

Today, he is an Evangelist.

I decree to Someone here listening to me inclusive all those now reading on the Label of DMC: As a result of what God will do in your Life tonight, you will fulfill Destiny – Amen.

But Deliverance offers you more.

If you read Exodus 12:30-32, when God was to deliver Israel from Egypt, Pharaoh said something: “Go and serve God as you wish.

5. Deliverance gives you the Ability and the Means to Serve God as you Wish.

For example, Deliverance makes available to you, the Wealth that you need to serve God.

I know there are some People here inclusive all those reading now on the Label of DMC who would love to build a Church for God once every year. It is only they don’t have the means. I am decreeing tonight that the Power to do whatever you want to do for God easily, you’ll receive it tonight – Amen.

It was Deliverance that turned Mary Magdalene to a Divine Treasurer.

“Poverty is a curse; Prosperity is a Blessing.”

That is one of the reasons why the devil does not like anything that would cause you to Prosper.

I am telling you, Poverty is not Good – If you agree with me say Amen – Amen.

I have been Poor; by the Grace of God; I am not that Poor any more. I have known what it is to walk barefooted till you reach the age of eighteen (18) – That’s not good!

Poverty is a curse.

And today, in the Name of the One Who saved my Soul; in the Name of the One who called me, I decree: Poverty will become a Stranger to you – Amen.

The Almighty God said, it is to Sinners that God has ordained travail – To Struggle and have Nothing to show for it.

You are working hard, working like an Elephant and eating like an Ant – That is not Good.

What your God says is, I wish above all things that you will Prosper and be in Health; even as your Soul Prospers.

If there is any one who should be doing very well, it is Someone whose Soul is Prospering.

If you are a True Child of God, doing the Will of God, you shouldn’t Lack. Poverty is a curse; and Poverty will become a Stranger to your family – Amen!

Oh! I am sure some of you will say: “what about those People who are not Christians and they have a lot of money?”

Oh sure! If you Study the Bible very well, the Word of God says clearly: the Prosperity of fools will destroy them.

The Bible says, it is the Blessings of the Lord that maketh rich and adds no sorrow.

You will Prosper! And you won’t know sorrow – Amen.

However, Prosperity can take you much, much deeper.

I have already talked about Restoration of Destiny as one of the things that you get when you are delivered.

But some of the things that I really like (and I won’t take too long tonight, because I want you to Pray) is that, Deliverance can turn you to Becoming a Terror to the devil.

You used to run from Witches and Wizards, Deliverance can turn the tide so that they will now become those who would be running away from you!

6. You can become Someone who will be Moving Mountains.

Acts 13:6-12, Paul was Preaching the Gospel, which was his Life Assignment. And then a Sorcerer decided to block the way. The Bible says, Paul full of the Holy Spirit looked at him and said, I am talking and you are hindering me? He said, I decree that you will be blind for a while.

… Up till today I don’t know why he added “for a while.”

And immediately, the Fellow became blind and moved out of the way. And the Governor that Paul was Preaching to got converted.

*I know atimes, when we Pray and make some decrees, some People feel, “Are you not being “Too Violent”?”

But if Somebody says I will not reach my Goal, should I allow him to stay? NO!

So I decree: Antone who will not allow you to reach your Goal shall be Uprooted – Amen.

One of my sons (some of you have heard this Testimony before) – Great Child of God, doing Mighty Things for God, was living in the same house in Ikeja with a Witch – He was living in a flat Upstairs and there was this Witch living in the flat below (very famous one). Big, big Officers of Law were coming to her for Power.

And my son came and told me. I said, what are you doing? You are Upstairs, the devil is downstairs, move the devil! “Excuse Sir, aren’t you forgetting that the Bible says we must be Gentle as a Dove?” I said, I see!

So if I get to my bedroom at Night and I open the bedsheet and one way or the other, I found that a Poisonous snake had found its way under the bed sheet; what you are asking me to say is, “Oh! Thou Creature of God, you are welcome.” Sleep on, but don’t worry, I will be sleeping somewhere near you.”

Is that what you will do? No! What would you do? Command the Mountain to move!

So after sometime I didn’t see my boy. When I saw him, there were rashes all over his body. “What happened?” He said the Witch reported him to one of the Police Officers – That she is convinced that the boy upstairs must be a Highway Robber; that People are always coming to his Place at Night to discuss.

People were coming to Pray – She said they were coming to Plan how they will rob.

So the Policemen arrested my boy, threw him into detention. It took a while before they said, this Fellow is always Praying, he can’t be an Armed Robber.

When my son came to me; I said: served you right! Harmless as Dove, go back, continue to be harmless as a Dove with the Witch underground. The next time she is going to report you, you won’t come out.

He got home and commanded the Mountain to move and the Mountain moved!

Do I hear Somebody say: In the Mighty Name of Jesus, every Mountains blocking my way, move tonight – Amen.

Amen! Don’t worry, the time to Pray would come. Please, be seated!

There is something I like much more than moving occasional Mountains, it is that;

7. Deliverance can move you to a Level where you become a One-Man-Army for the Lord.

As you found in the Bible Text that I read to you (Acts 8:5-8) – Only one boy (Philip) went to a City; when he arrived there every Demons started running away.

Single boy! Became an Army of God, flushed out all evil forces in the town.

The result? – There was Great Joy in the City.

I am believing God for you, that after this Convention, you will visit your Village, you will visit your Towns and drive out all the Demons there – Amen.

Let me tell you a Story, and I will mention names because it’s a true Story anyway!

The Late Orimolusi (the one before the Present one) happened to be, not just to be my son in the Lord, but my friend. And his Salvation was solid – I mean solid! Saved, Sanctified, Delivered and Baptized in the Holy Spirit.

So he told the People in his Town – And this is a True Story; you can check to be sure I’m telling you the Truth.

He said: Now, I am a Child of God, I am not just an “Ordinary Oba” – Not just an “Ordinary Traditional Ruler” – No more idol worshipping in my Town. And the People laughed at him.

And at the time he was saying that, the Egungun (Masquerade) Festival was just some weeks away! They told him we have been doing this before your father, not to talk of you. We will celebrate our Egungun (Masquerade) Festival. He said fine, we shall see!

Then about three (3) weeks to the date when the Festival was to be celebrated, the High Priest, who would lead the celebration died. So the People said, no Problem! There is a Successor. So another fellow became High Priest. But ten (10) days or so to the celebration the new High Priest died. And the People said, no Problem! There is somebody who can succeed that one. And so they told him, it’s your turn! He said, I refuse! They said, why not? He said, the God of Orimolusi will kill me.

I hereby decree, anybody who raises any hand or foot against your God shall die – Amen.

DMC NOTES: The “Orimolusi” is the name of the First-Class King and he is the Supreme Head of Ijebu-Igbo (Headquarters of Ijebu North LGA Ogun State). Oba Sami Adetayo, the Ikupakude IV, was the name and Identity of the King in Question as at then and he joined his Ancestors on May 28, 1994. And after 28 years of interregnum occasioned by Legal battles and fierce Contest over the Royal Father Stool, Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun on the 5th of January 2022 installed the New and current “Orimolusi” of Ijebu Igbo, Oba Lawrence Adebajo.

What are the Requirements for you to be a One-Man-Army for God – A Terror to the devil?

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

….he will do what? He will flee!

1. Let your Submission to God be Total.

You must be able to say, like Jesus said in John 14:30, The Prince of this world has come and has found nothing in me.

I am a Christian, a Child of God, hundred Percent (100%) with nothing added.

Submit like that to God, you will resist the devil, the devil will flee.

I am a small boy! And if I am a small boy now, you can imagine how small I was some forty (40) years ago.

You have heard the Story – About forty (40) years ago, the same Orimolusi of Blessed Memory (DMC NOTES: Oba Sami Adetayo; The Ikupakude IV) invited me to Ijebu-Igbo for a Thanksgiving Service.

Because some of his children had returned from Abroad and he wanted to celebrate; and I went.

And just as the Service was about to begin, a lot of his Chiefs (of those days) came! And they came in the Regalia of their various cults. The Ushers saw them coming and they said to me and said: Sir! Are we going to allow these People into the Church?

I said of course, bring them to the front row where it will be easy for my God to reach them quickly.

And I Changed my Sermon – I was going to Preach on, “O that Man whould Praise the Lord.” I Changed my Sermon to “What happened on Mount Carmel.”

… You know what happened on Mount Carmel!

I rounded up the Sermon by saying: Brethren, I came here with my wife and my son, in this Particular car number so and so.

I said, I give you a Challenge – If you can make one of my tyres go flat, I will serve your god, if you can’t do that? You must serve my God.

Then I made the Altar Call; and the Head Chief who incidentally also happened to be the Leader of all the Members of the Secret Society was the first to come forward.

He came and of course, when they saw their Leader going, others followed.

At the end of the Service, Orimolusi said to me, “E.A” – I said, Kabiyesi. Because we were close, you know? He called me “E.A” (as my initial). You saw my Chief Assistant, the highest man next to me coming forward when you made the Altar Call? I said Kabiyesi, I saw him.

He said, maybe he didn’t understand what you said ooo – Maybe he thought you were asking for Somebody who needs Prayers for Healing. He said, let’s follow him up. I said good, let’s go!

So we got to him and Kabiyesi said, do you know what you have just done? He said I do! Why?

He said, Ha! You see a small boy like this Challenging all of us; who does not know there must be Somebody behind him?

When you leave here, the Lord of Hosts will be behind you – Amen!

… He said, it is the One behind him that I surrendered to!

Submit to God absolutely and then you resist the devil and he will flee from you – That is what the Bible says.

2. Then if you are to be a One-Man-Army for God, you must be ready for a Life of Self Discipline.

You must be ready for a Life that you will keep yourself under Perfect Control.

In Matthew 17:14-21, there was a boy who was being tormented by a Demon. And they brought him to the Disciples and they couldn’t cast the Demon out. But Jesus came and threw away the Demon.

So later on the Disciples came to the Lord and said Sir, why couldn’t we cast him out?

I. And the Lord said well, because of your Unbelief;

II. Because this kind does not come out, except with Fasting and Prayer.

You are my children so I can tell you the Truth – Your life must become a Life of Fasting and Prayer.

You can’t be overloaded with Pounded yam everytime and expect the devil to take you serious.

You must learn to say No to the flesh from time to time.

That’s what Paul said in 1 Corinthians 9:25-27. He said, I keep my body under.

I tell the body, Hey! Sit down.

That is why you find that in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), one of the things we are noted for is Fasting.

And from time to time, I call you to Fast.

Some of you of course obey – I don’t know about the rest.

But in the Name that’s above every other name, as you follow my foot steps you will be Greater than I – Amen!

Some of you have heard the Story before (don’t worry, I am about to Close) – I went home to my Village in Ifewara (Osun State Nigeria) several years ago. I was on holidays! And when I am on holidays I don’t think Fasting – Holidays mean you do what you don’t normally do. You rest, you eat.

And I went home (my home), and they Prepared me Pounded yam – My favourite food; with bush meat and combination Okro soup.

As usual, I Prayed before I eat – “Father, in the Mighty Name of Jesus …”

And God said clearly: Son, don’t eat!

Ha! This is my home, Nobody is going to Poison me here – My People love me, my family, they love me and I am not Fasting today, as I am on holidays.

God said again, Son, don’t eat!

I am confessing to you; I said this Pounded yam, I am going to eat this one.

So I ate. I am a Human Being like you now! – Pray that God will help me.

I have just finished eating when a Messenger came and said one of my Elder sisters, living not too far away had been struck from head to toe with Small Pox.

… Thank God Small Pox is forgotten now!

But in those days, it was a terrible disease – It can kill you. If it doesn’t kill you, it will deform you.

O God! I ran to where my sister was.

When I saw her, I was shaking. And I heard God say, “I told you not to eat yet.” I ran to the back of the house, put my hand deep into my throat and vomitted the Meal.

You don’t cast out Small Pox with your belly full of Pounded yam!

I apologised to God and then came back and dealt with the Small Pox.

Before the following Morning, my sister was Completely Whole again.

You must be willing to live a Disciplined Life.

3. And of course, you don’t face the devil unless you are Full of the Spirit.

We are going to be Praying tonight. And one of your Prayers tonight is that God will fill you to Overflowing with the Holy Spirit – He is Willing, if you are Willing.

In Conclusion: How can you become a terror to the devil if you are not Born Again?

Because the Bible says clearly in 1 John 3:8, He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this Purpose, the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

You are committing sin? It says the devil is your owner. And so how are you going to be commanding your owner to move? He will just slap you on the head.

I mean, you remembered Acts 19:13-17 – When seven (7) sons of Sceva said to a man who had Demons, devil we command you in the Name of Jesus that Paul Preaches, get out!

The devil said, what kind of nonesense is this? I know Jesus, if He commands me to leave, I will leave. I know Paul, who are you? Then he tore their clothes.

If your Salvation is not Genuine, I beg you to come and give your Life to Jesus. Because very soon, we are going to be Praying. And at a Stage, one of our Prayers will be a “Prayer in Agreement”.

Those of us who are full of the Holy Spirit, those of us who are True Children of God, we are going to Command every Demons here tonight inclusive those who are now reading on the Label of DMC, to get out!

… And Believe me honestly, they are going to obey!

When the Demons begin to fly out, if they find someone who has not been washed in the Blood of the Lamb, they will say, Ha! No Problem, we are just exchanging houses.

ALTAR CALL

So if you have not been Born Again, if you have not been saved, if your Salvation is not Genuine; if you have been Pretending all this while. Or you are Backslidden and living in the Congregation of the Dead; you better run forward now, come and give your Life to Jesus Christ.

So that you would be save, His Blood would cover you and then you would be secured when Deliverance time comes.

If you are ready to Genuinely Surrender your Life to Jesus Christ do so now!

And this is not a joking matter – No question of shame there. If you are backslidden come now.

Begin to Pray: Ask Jesus to have Mercy on you, ask Him to save your Soul tonight inclusive all those reading now on the Label of DMC; Wash you clean in His Blood. Give you Genuine Salvation.

Call on Him wherever you are now – It is a very important time.

Tell Him: I want to do Your Will, I want to serve You from now on.

All these days that I have been serving the devil what have I gained?

I am coming to You Lord, wash me Clean in Your Blood. Be my Lord, be my Saviour, I will serve You for the rest of my Life.

And the rest of us, let’s stretch our hands towards these our Brothers and Sisters and intercede for them – Let’s Pray that the One Who saved our own Souls would save their Souls also. Please. Pray for them Brethren, Pray for them!

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

PRAYER FOR SALVATION

Saviour, I want to Thank You for Your Word. I want to give You all Glory and Honour for those who have come forward to Genuinely Surrender their lives to You today.

Father Please, receive them, have Mercy on them. Please, save their Souls, let Your Blood wash away their sins, receive them into the Family of God.

And Please Lord, don’t let the devil have anything to do with them again.

From now on, anytime they cry unto You; Please answer them by Fire!

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

I rejoice with those of you who have just Surrendered your lives to Jesus Christ. I want to Promise you that from today I will begin to Pray for you.

So I am going to need your names, your Address and your Prayer Requests.

God Bless You!

PRAYER SESSION

Now it’s time to Pray!

1. First of all you would want to make sure that there is no Unclean Spirits hibernating anywhere in your System.

And we are going to do that, copying from Acts 16:25-end – Paul and Silas were chained hands and feet. But then they began to Praise God. And God has Promised, when I find People who are Worshipping me in Spirit and in Truth, He said, I will pay them a visit.

And when God paid them a visit, there was an Earthquake; forced open every chains, forced open every Prison-Door.

You are going to spend the first five (5) Minutes tonight, and it’s up to you how you’ll use it: you are going to Praise God violently.

You are going to Praise Him so Mightily, that God will locate you from this huge crowd. And when the Almighty God pays you a visit, no Demon can Stand.

So Stand on your feet, begin to Praise the Almighty God like you have never done before.

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

2. The Bible says if a Demon goes out of a man, he goes around looking for somewhere else to stay. And if he cannot find one, then he comes back to check if the old house is still vacant. And he goes out to bring seven (7) more wicked Demons than himself.

Say Father, fill me to Overflowing with Your Holy Spirit so that no Demon will find any Place to come back to.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

3. Lift up your voice and say: Father; turn me to a Terror to the devil. Turn me to a One-Man-Army against the devil. Go ahead cry to the Almighty God.

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

4. You are going to Pray now like a Warrior.

So in one accord let’s lift our voices to the Almighty God and say: Father, in the Mighty Name of Jesus, we Command every Demons here tonight to let go of their Victims. Go ahead, cry to the Almighty God!

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

5. There is a famous saying that says, “Charity begins at home.”

You are going to Command now that the devil would take his dirty hands off every Members of your family.

Lift your voice to the Almighty God and say: Father, in the Mighty Name of Jesus, I hereby Command – Satan take your dirty hands off my family. Go ahead, cry unto the Almighty God!

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

DADDY GO DECREED:

Lord of Hosts, the One Who reigns for ever; the One Who said, “let there be Light” and there was Light. I Worship You tonight. Please, accept my Worship, in Jesus’ Name.

I Stand before You tonight, as Your Representative to these People. You are the One Who said I will decree a thing and it would be established unto me.

I here decree: Every one of you today, be Free!

Be free from Demons, be free from Curses, be free from Harmful Habits!

Go and fulfill Destiny! Become Terrors to the devil.

From now on, when the devil sees you coming, the devil will run and you will reach your Goal.

You will become a Mighty Army against Forces of Darkness.

And it shall be well with you!

In Jesus’ Mighty Name I have decreed – Amen.

Well, if you believe that, then go ahead – Praise the Lord, Magnify His Holy Name. Just Bless His Name Name!!!

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

One thing that I want to say straightaway before we Proceed further is that there will be no hurry tonight – We will finish whenever we finished.

Because this is a Night that you will never forget!

I need to get some things off my Mind so that we can then settle down.

1. The September Special Holy Ghost Service (HGS) is for those Trusting God for the Fruit of the Womb,

It is going to take Place on Friday, 1st September 2023

So, if you have Relatives that are Trusting God for the Fruit of the Womb, then invite them to come!

The Theme as my Father told me is: “MULTIPLE WONDERS”.

So, I’m believing God that out of the next Holy Ghost Service (September HGS); there will be lots of Twins and Triplets – Amen!

2. By Tomorrow:

• By 10am, there will be Laying on of Hands both at the Old and New Auditorium.

— And in the Evening, there will be the Holy Communion Service.

And it is the Best Part of the Convention.

… I will see you there!

3. Last Year (2022), I asked you to help me build more Dormitories – Thank You very much as some of you responded and we built about twenty (20) Dormitories.

But I discovered that the largest of them, when we put the Double-Decker beds there, they can only take two hundred (200) People.

That means for two thousand (2,000) People, I need ten (10) Dormitories.

That means for two Million (2,000,000) People, I’m going to need ten thousand (10,000) Dormitories.

So, I need a whole lot more of Help for Dormitories!

So, in this New Year; as many of you that are willing to build Dormitories for us; Please do so very quickly – At least we will have more Dormitories before the December Holy Ghost Congress 2023.

If you can’t build a Dormitory Singlehandedly, you can link up with a friend or you can send us Money for Dormitories,

God will continue to bless you – Amen!

But there is Someone here tonight – Before you leave this Place, you will be surprised by God (Amen)

GOOD NEWS

Let me give you some Good News.

Today, additional seventeen (17) Babies have been born – Ten (10) boys and Seven (7) girls. I told you that the boys will catch up.

As at now, sixty six (66) babies has been born and the girls are still leading – Thirty one (31) boys and thirty five (35) girls.

So let the girls shout Praise the Lord and let the boys shout Hallelujah!

… We are coming and we will catch up!

I want to Thank God for the Royal Fathers – It was a “Fantastic Choir”. I enjoyed your Song as I heard it in my Prayer Room.

There will always be Joy in your Kingdom – Amen. And you will be more than this Next Year (2024) – Amen!

I also want to say Thank You to the Mass Choir – Again, you are Excellent.

SPECIAL DEDICATION OF BABIES

CATEGORY 1: Last Year (2022); some People came, Trusting God for the Fruit of the Womb and now the baby has come.

CATEGORY 2: Two (2) years ago (2021), some People came Trusting God for the Fruit of the Womb, Last Year (2022), by the time they came for the Convention they were Pregnant and so we said that we will wait till the baby arrives.

So, if you belong to these two (2) Categories, bring your children forward so that we can Pray for them!

So, whether in the Old or New Auditorium, take your children to the Altar so that we can bless them!

Ephesians 3:20-21:

20 Now unto him that is able to do Exceeding Abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the Power that worketh in us,

21 Unto him be Glory in the Church by Christ Jesus throughout all Ages, world without end. Amen.

We want to talk about “BEYOND EXPECTATIONS”.

PART ONE (1): THEORY.

Our God is Jehovah El-Shaddai (The God Who is More than Enough) – The God Who can do much more than you can ever think Possible.

He doesn’t know how to do small things:

1. For example, He doesn’t stop when your Cup of Blessing is Full – He just keeps on Pouring.

Psalms 23:5, Thou Preparest a table before me in the Presence of mine Enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

2. He doesn’t give you little, little Miracles (according to Psalms 68:19): He loads us with Benefits, load full.
3. He doesn’t stop when all Needs are met – He makes sure there will never be a crisis again.

In 2 Kings 4:1-7, not only did He pay the debt of the Widow, the Widow had enough to enjoy for the rest of her Life.

Anytime He is dealing with you, He wants to go the extra Mile.

By the way, the Almighty God is going to pay the debt of somebody this Month (August) – Amen.

When in Mark 8:22-25 they brought a blind man to Him and He touched his eyes and asked him “how are you now?” He said I am seeing now, but I am seeing men like trees. He said, that’s not good enough. Come, let me give you another touch.

And in the Name that’s above every other name, all of you who need a Second Touch will get it tonight – Amen.

4. He doesn’t just Provide Wine: in the Wedding at Cana of Galilee, He gave the Best Wine (John 2:1-10).

He wanted to make sure that not only would there be no embarrassment for the Bridegroom; but He wanted to move them from embarrassment to Glory.

He wanted to be sure that the Wedding would be talked about – Not because wine failed; but that People would be talking about the Wedding where the wine was the best!

He made a Promise in Joel 2:26-27; He said it again and again that, “My People shall never be ashamed”.

And I hereby decree in the Name of Jesus – You will never know shame again – Amen.

Ha! Thank You Daddy.

The Lord says there is Somebody here tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

He says, against all Odds, by the time you are coming Next Year (2024), you will come with your Husband – Amen.

5. But not only that, He has a way of changing shame to Glory.

In Mark 10:46-52, He turned the embarrassment of Bartimaeus to Glory.

I mean, he was not just a beggar but a “Hated Beggar”. But at the end of the day, all those who were telling him to shut up, they were the People who came to call him. They said come, He is calling you. Be of Good Cheers!

I decree in the Name that’s above every other name, all those who have been mocking you; they will come and rejoice with you – Amen.

6. God is not just a Helper, in Psalms 46:1; the Bible calls Him the Ever Present Help in trouble – Just when you have a crisis, He shows up!

But He goes beyond that; He is ready to carry you all the way to Safety.

In Matthew 14:22-33, when Jesus was walking on water and Peter said: “if You are the one, ask me to come” and He said, Come! Peter jumped out of the boat and began to walk towards Jesus.

The Bible said when he saw the wind boisterous, he became afraid and he began to sink. And then he cried to Jesus and Jesus stretched out His Hands immediately to help him.

There is somebody here inclusive those reading on the label of DMC – Who is in need of urgent Help. Let me hear you shout, Jesus Help Me!

… And He will help you – Amen.

After he grabbed him by the hand before He said anything at all, He had already got his hand; to make sure he won’t sink. Before He now began to say: why did you doubt? And together, hand-in-hand, they walked back to the boat. Peter still walked on water till he got to the boat.

The One who sent me is going to Help somebody here inclusive those reading on the label of DMC tonight. And He will help you all the way – Amen!

Thank You Father.

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

There is a Noise going on in your head that sounds like Air-Conditioner working.

God asked me to tell you: With the next shout of Hallelujah, the Noise will be gone – Hallelujah!

Oh! Thank You Daddy.

The Lord says there’s Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

Many times in your Dreams in the recent Past; you have had to wake up suddenly because Someone has been trying to choke you.

Daddy asked me to tell: The Demon will never return – Amen.

7. Not only will He stand by you in time of trouble, like He Promised in Isaiah 43:1-2.

He says He will stand by you in trouble, so you will come out without being burnt by fire.

So, even when you have a trial, He remains with you, He helps you pass the Examination.

I know you want to ask the Question: “When You know that You are going to stand by me during the exam, why the exam anyway? “Usually, it is so that He can bless you double.

Hallelujah!

The Lord says Somebody is asking – And you have wondered about something: “Is Triple Promotion Possible?”

God said I should tell you, “I will make you a Classical Example – Amen.

In Job 42:12-17, the Bible said, God blessed the latter end of Job than the beginning because He doubled everything that the devil took from him.

Let me decree to Somebody here tonight inclusive those reading on the label of DMC, every Good thing you have ever lost, God will restore Double – Amen!

8. He not only Uproots Mountain, you know in Psalms 90:1-2, the Bible tells us that before the Mountains were brought forth, our God has been there!

But when He wants to remove a Mountain, He uproots it. And so, He gives you the Authority – “Just believe in Me and then command Mountains to move; and the Mountain will move!”

And I know that there are some Believers here tonight inclusive those reading on the Label of DMC – You won’t be here tonight if you don’t believe in God. You won’t come here tonight if you don’t believe that Miracles are happening here.

Holy Ghost Service (HGS) started in 1986 and it’s getting bigger by the day because God is here.

And you know that He is here; and you know He is a Miracle Worker.

PRAYER: So, I am going to encourage you that right now, you will Stand on your feet and command every Mountain that is blocking your way, and say:

In the Mighty Name of Jesus, Mountain, I Command you, get out of my way!

… Say it again loud and clear. Say it as if you mean it.

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

Please, be seated!

I want to Prophesy to someone – Before you get home tonight, that Mountain would have been buried – Amen.

I am sure you remembered the Story of Someone who was doing very well in his Place of work, and all of a sudden, they sacked them. So, he came to the Holy Ghost Service with his sack letter.

And God spoke that – “There is Someone here, Somebody in your family is going to die next week. Don’t mourn him because he is the one causing you trouble. And when he has been removed, Restoration will come”.

By the time he got home, the following week, the father died.

Because the father is the one who said: “the way this boy is going, he will soon be greater than I”. That’s why he caused him to be sacked.

His father died and they Phoned the boy to come back to work – “Sorry, we made a mistake. You should be Promoted, not sacked”.

I don’t care who the fellow is – No matter how close to you; if he is blocking your way to Glory, the Almighty God will move him/her – Amen.

9. God does not just move Mountains; occasionally to show Himself Mighty, He will cause you to Fly Over the Mountains – So the Mountain is waiting but you are gone!

In Isaiah 40:31, it says, But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their Strength; they shall mount up with wings as Eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

I decree to Somebody today – Every Mountain that God does not want to move, you will Fly Over them – Amen.

10. He doesn’t just give you Victory, He can give you Victory Upon Victory, Upon Victory.

Daddy asked me to tell someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: that very soon you will be Singing.

And the Song would be, “it is Raining all over me” – Amen.

Daddy says I should tell all of you that every Seed sown this Month (August 2023);

The Harvest will be Beyond Expectations – Amen!

Oh, the Lord is here tonight!

The Lord wants me to tell Somebody: I have given you Victory before; I will give you a bigger one – Amen.

In 1 Samuel 17:34-51, the lion came, David killed the lion. A bear came, David killed the bear, Goliath came and David killed Goliath.

11. Not only does He give you Victory after Victory; He can make sure you never have to fight again.

He can make sure that all the weapons fashioned against you will not Prosper.

In Isaiah 54:15-17, He says you don’t have to worry; if Somebody wants to fight you, let him try!

And when He Promotes, He not only reaches down to the Dunghill; 1 Samuel 2:7-9 tells you He can pick up a beggar from the dunghill. He will keep on raising him until He begins to dine with kings.

He said by Strength shall no man Prevail.

I. He doesn’t just go to the Dunghill, He goes deeper down than the Dunghill – He can even go into the Miry Clay and bring you up from there.

I have told you my own Story – My father was so poor, the poor People called him poor. God went to the Miry clay and Picked up Somebody from that fellow – Who is talking to you right now.

In the Name that’s above every other name, all those who have written you off will come and bow down before you – Amen.

II. When He wants to Promote, He can go to the Prison House and bring Somebody there and make him the Great Ruler.

Praise God – Hallelujah!

Daddy asked me to tell Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: Get ready for hard work.

He says, because I am about to Open many doors simultaneously – Amen.

You know the Story of Joseph in Genesis 41 – Joseph woke up in Prison, as a Prisoner but by the Evening, he was Prime Minister of Egypt with the authority that every knee should be bowing before him.

I think I have told you before that if I were Joseph, the moment I got on that Chariot of Pharaoh, I will go to Potiphar’s house first – Hello Potiphar, call your wife out. Let her come out here and let her see me in my Glory.

I have told you the Story before – That in 1963 Nnamdi Azikiwe became the Governor General of Nigeria. He came to visit Ondo Town. At that time I was a little Teacher at Ondo Boys High School.

All of us trooped out to go and receive him. There was one of the Old Teachers standing by my side. As Azikiwe was riding past in the open car, for one reason or the other, he looked in my direction and saw that Old Teacher standing by my side. He stopped the Motorcade and said they should bring the Teacher.

Because the Teacher was the one who was responsible for expelling Zik from the Secondary School. Now Zik is Governor General and he saw that Teacher and said he should come.

One man was riding in Glory, another one was almost sinking in shame.

Anybody who tries to truncate your Destiny will watch you ride in Glory – Amen.

… I am talking about this God who can go Beyond Expectations:

12. He cannot only destroy all your yokes, He can use your Presence to deal with the yokes of others.

Ha! Thank You.

The Lord asked me to tell Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: Today, you are fighting a battle of a Lifetime.

He asked me to tell you: I have set Confusion in the Camp of your Enemies – Amen.

In Acts 16:25-end, when God paid a visit to that Prison house, He came because of Paul and Silas; but at the end of the day, when the Earthquake came, it was not only Paul and Silas that had their yokes destroyed; every Prisoner got loose.

Because of you (whoever you may be): all the yokes in your family will be destroyed tonight – Amen!

13. He cannot only save the worst of Sinners, he can turn him to an Apostle.

In 1 Timothy 1:15 Paul said, I am the Chief of Sinners. But by the time God finished with him in 2 Corinthians 11:5, he said, For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very Chiefest Apostles.

Thank You Daddy.

The Lord asked me to tell Someone here inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC: You will be Pregnant this Month – Amen.

And not only that; the child you shall bring forth will become a Great Man of God – Amen.

14. Not only can He save your Soul, He can fill you to Overflowing with the Holy Spirit so that you can have Divine Power – Power to Witness and Power over Principalities and Powers.
15. He can raise you up so Mightily that even Angels will become your Servants. Hebrews 1:7-14…

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

A Prophet gave you a very “Frightening Prophecy”.

God asked me to tell you that He didn’t send him. So forget the Prophecy – Amen.

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

He said, the Holy Spirit will begin to move you “More Powerful” than ever before – Amen.

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

He says, I will give you a Vision that will lead to Mighty Prosperity – Amen.

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

Out of the Present Hardship, you will come out Triumphantly – Amen.

16. God cannot only give you a Glorious future in Life; Isaiah 3:10 says, you as a Child of God, it is going to be well with you anyway!

Colossians 1:27 says, Christ in you is the Hope of Glory.

If you have Christ in you, then you know your tomorrow is going to be alright.

According to the Word of God, He has even Greater Plans for you.

According to John 14:1-3; He is telling you about the world to come. He said He has Prepared a Mansion for you.

And I believe I am going to see you in your Mansion when we get to Heaven – Amen.

… Now that is Part One (1): Theory.

I believe that I have established it that our God does not just do little, little things; when He does things, He does it Big – Beyond Expectations.

PART TWO (2): APPLICATION.

But now let’s talk about Application – You know I am an Applied Mathematician.

Knowing Who your God is should lead you to the following Points:

1. Put Him First and He will Single you out for a Mighty Miracle.

In 1 Kings 17:8-16, a Man of God came to the Widow of Zarephath and said, I need food. The Widow said, what I have is barely enough for me and my son. The Man of God said, do my own first. The woman agreed! And for the rest of the Famine the Widow never suffered hunger.

Now the Bible tells us in Luke 4:25-26, there were many Windows in the Land, but God Singled out one for “Unending Supplies”.

We are many here tonight; and Somebody is going to become a “World Figure” – Amen.

How will God Single out that fellow out of this Multitude? It will be the one who would put God first.

I have told you before, when God said, “Honour me with your First Fruit” He is saying: I don’t need anything, I am the All-Sufficient God.

Honour is something you give to Someone who doesn’t need anything.

Honourary Degree is given to Somebody who doesn’t need your money.

God says, “Honour Me” – Put me first and see what I will do.

2. Obey Him Completely and He will heal you Beyond Expectations.

I am happy those of you who were here from the beginning of the week and you have learnt that there is something far beyond Healing -That there is something called Wholeness.

In 2 Kings 5:1-14, when God healed Naaman, He didn’t just heal him; He made him Whole – There was no scar of Leprosy left.

But again in Luke 4:27, it says there were many Lepers in the Land, but God Singled out Naaman for Wholeness.

Why? He obeyed Completely! – “Deep yourself in Jordan seven (7) times”. He did it exactly as God said and received Wholeness.

God can Single you out for Extraordinary Blessing.

I have told you before – I travelled to Canada for the first time (1975 or 1976) for a World Conference of Applied Mathematicians. It was in the Month of May – May is a very Cold Season in Canada.

We came from all over the world, long queue to register and I was shaking.

All of a sudden, the woman in Charge of Registration left her table far away and began to come down the line. When she got to me, she stopped. “Hello, where are you from? (I told her). What’s your name? (I told her).” She turned back.

Few minutes later, she came back with a Packet of Sandwich and very hot big cup of tea. I didn’t look at anybody, I finished the bread and drank the tea.

Just as I was finishing the tea, she came back – She had gone back to do my Registration and gave me Somebody to lead me to where I will stay.

To you, it may not mean much: it was my first time of traveling out of Africa. I didn’t know anybody there, but God Singled me out – Out of all the People for Special Treatment.

I decree to Somebody here today or reading now on the Label of DMC, God will Single you out for Special Favour – Amen.

3. Trade with God and you will see El-shaddai in Action.

In 1 Samuel 1:9-20, Hannah traded with God, “give me a son and I’ll give him back to You.”

Yes, God gave her a son, not just an “Ordinary Son”. God gave her one of the Greatest Prophets in the Old Testament. And then God gave her five (5) additional children.

When you trade with God, He will bless you Beyond Expectations – He will show you that He is truly El-shaddai.

4. Be Hundred Percent (100%) Committed to His Kingdom Work.

Work for Him, go beyond Ordinary Call of Duty, and He will give you ‘Unending Promotion”.

Promotion comes from God – Your boss is a Human Being, and his Heart is in the Hand of God.

The Heart of kings are in the Hand of God and He can turn the Heart like Rivers of water.

If God says, “Promote this fellow”, that fellow will be Promoted.

But you must be Someone who is hundred Percent (100%) committed to the work of God.

I have to say Amen to this one before I tell you – Amen!

Daddy says: The one who would be referred to as the “Greatest Miracle” of this Decade is here tonight – That will be The DMC FAMILY MEMBERS (Amen)!

In Psalms 57:7, David said, My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give Praise.

And in Psalms 34:1 David also said, I will bless the LORD at all times: His Praise shall continually be in my mouth.

In 1 Chronicles 22:7-16, David said to Solomon, “I wanted to build a House for God but God says, no you can’t build a House because you have been a Warrior, your son will build a house”.

He said, “Solomon, Congratulations but I want you to know that everything that will be needed to build a House for God is coming from me – Daddy says I can’t build a House but I will Provide everything that is needed”.

God turned to David and said: Because it is in your heart to build me a House, there will always be a King on your Thorne.

Thank You Father!

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

The one who is blocking your Vision is already on the way Out – Amen.

That is why we hear in Mark 10:46-52; when Bartimaeus was calling, he said, “Jesus, thou son of David” – He referred Jesus to David.

And today Jesus is on the Throne according to the Promise that God made to David, that there will always be Someone on his Throne.

I want to decree to Somebody here today inclusive those who are reading on the label of DMC; your Promotion will never end – Amen!

Do His Will and He will bless you so much that you will be running away from the Blessing – Deuteronomy 28:1-13.

I want to say Amen to this before I tell you – Amen!

Some years ago there was this Magazine about Motor cars and Automobiles, and they were ranking the cars.

They said Mercedes Benz is the Strongest; BMW is the Fastest;. Lexus is more Comfortable.

So I was asking a friend, what’s wrong with this People? Where did they put Royce Rolls?

My friend said, when they are talking about cars, you don’t want to mention Royce Rolls; because it is in a “Class by Itself”.

I am telling you that because God asked to tell somebody: One day when Great People sit down together and they are talking about Greatness; they would Point to you and say: “Your case is Exceptional” – Amen.

I want to say Amen to this one again; and f this is the only one I got I will be happy – Amen!

Because God says, there is someone here today inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:

He says, I will give you ten (10) Years of Unlimited Joy – Amen.

… That brings us to the next Point.

5. Don’t Limit God:

Since you know He will do Exceedingly, Abundantly above all you ask or think, then don’t limit Him.

In 2 Kings 4:1-7, it was when the empty Vessels that the woman gathered finished that the oil stopped flowing,

God told her, borrow empty Vessels, borrow not a few. And she borrowed – But after some time, she felt, this is enough! And the oil stopped when there were no more empty Vessels.

I know God feels unhappy when you ask Him for small things – At times you ask Him things so small that He feels insulted.

So when it is time to Pray – Which is going to be very soon; Please tonight, don’t ask for small things.

I told you before of my Late Uncle – You go to him and say uncle, give me One Thousand Naira (N1,000) – And One Thousand Naira (N1,000) was a lot of money in those days. My uncle will say, I don’t have.

Ha! Uncle.

I will come back to say, Uncle Please, give me ten thousand Naira (N10,000) and he will say, I don’t have.

And then when you go to Uncle and say, Please I need a Hundred Thousand Naira – Now you are talking! “Don’t you know who I am?” Asking me for ten thousand Naira?

He came home sometimes and we met him on the way, he branched at the High School that we had in Ifewara (A Village in Osun State Nigeria) in those days.

We received him and I said Uncle, Please we don’t have Assembly Hall. We do our Assembly in the Dining Hall.

He said, is that all? Have you Boys’ Dormitory? We said, No Sir! You have a Place for the Girls? No Sir! He said, you Principal, do you have a Principal’s house? He said No Sir!

And he said, now, let’s sit down and talk – School Assembly Hall plus Dormitory for boys, plus Dormitory for Girls and a Principal’s house.

It doesn’t matter how many things you ask God today, He will give you more!

In Conclusion:

Whatever you do for God from now, do it with all your heart – He will not share you with anyone or any idol. He’s a very Jealous God.

You want Him to Prove to you that He is More Than Sufficient? You must serve Him wholeheartedly.

You add anything else to Him; you are on your own.

Be committed to Him hundred Percent (100%); even before the end of this Month ,(August), you will Testify – Amen.

It is going to be time to Pray now!

I know that my son (Revd Joe Olaiya) has Preached a Powerful Sermon and several Souls have been saved – You can get to read the Full Text of this Message on the Label of DMC.

But just in case some People came in after he made the Altar Call, and you have not given your Life to Jesus Christ. I want to give you an opportunity to do so.

ALTAR CALL

If you want to give your Life to Jesus Christ do so now!

Cry to Him and say: I have come with all my heart. Please, save my Soul, let Your Blood wash away all my sins. I want to serve You for the rest of my Life.

Go ahead, call on Him!

And the rest of us, let’s Stretch our hands to these our Brothers and Sisters and intercede for them – That the One Who saved our Soul would save their Souls also.

Let’s Pray for them that God will give them Salvation.

Go ahead, Pray for them!

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

PRAYER FOR SALVATION

And let them remain Your Children forever.

In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.

Well, just two (2) things more and then you’ll be on your way.

We are going to Thank God for all He has done tonight; and then I am going to anoint your Handkerchiefs.

Lift up your Handkerchiefs or any Piece of Cloth with you – As I wave my hands, the Wind of God will blow and touch all Clothes that are being lifted to God today;

And you would be using them to Perform Miracles for God – Amen.

So keep saying ‘Amen’ as I Pray (until I stop):

In the Mighty Name of Jesus! Thank You Father!

Please, saturate all these Clothes lifted up to You Lord, with Your Anointing – So Mightily that wherever each one would be used, yokes would be destroyed and Your Name will be Glorified.

Blessed be Your Holy Name Lord.

… Go ahead, Prophesy to yourself!

Be seated – God Bless You!

I give Thanks to God for this Great opportunity to Stand here and Minister to you.

And I Thank our father-in-the-Lord and our mother-in-the-Lord – The Lord will keep on Prreserving you (Amen).

I have been asked to talk to you this Morning on: “COVETING THE BEST GIFTS”.

In 1 Corinthians 12: 28-31; we have some “Ministry Gifts” listed there!

1 Corinthians 12: 28-31:

28. And God hath set some in the Church, first Apostles, Secondarily Prophets, thirdly Teachers, after that Miracles, then Gifts of Healings, Helps, Governments, Diversities of Tongues.
29. Are all Apostles? Are all Prophets? Are all Teachers? Are all Workers of Miracles?
30. Have all the Gifts of Healing? Do all speak with Tongues? Do all Interpret?
31. But covet earnestly the Best Gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more Excellent way.

And at the end of the Listing of the Ministry Gifts, the Question was asked: “But covet earnestly the Best Gifts”.

That means that we have the Best of them and we have those that are better.

So, there are three (3) Classes of Gifts

Before then, the nine (9) Singular Gifts were listed in 1 Corinthians 12: 4-11 and then, the Ministerial Gifts were listed later.

But Paul in his Epistle to the Ephesians, gave us the List of the five (5) Ministry Gifts.

The Singular Gifts were Grouped into three (3):

I. The Vocal Gifts – Whiich are Inspirational.

II. The Revelation Gifts

III. The Action Gifts – Which are Powerful.

Of the Inspirational Gifts, Prophesy is the most desirable because it does what the others do.

Of the Action Gifts; Faith is the Best of them because it does what Miracles does and what the Healing of Miracles will do.

But when it comes to the Revelation Gifts, it is a bit dicey. But the best of them all is the “Word of Wisdom” because it does not only solve Problems; it also gives you Guidance.

And Paul says: Earnestly desire or covet.

When you know the Purpose of a Gift, it will help you to Streamline your desires.

Summarily, the Gifts were given to bring Individual Blessings to the Individuals in the Church and to the Church Body collectively

So, you can make Profit from the Gift of Healing:

I. If you are Anointed to heal the sick, the day you are sick; during your Ministrations, the Anointing that is following out through you to the other People can be reversed into your body to heal you.

II. The day your children is sick, you can make Profit – Your Children can be healed.

But if God Anointed you to heal the sick and you throw away the Gift of Healing; on the day you are sick, you will have Nothing to Profit from!

So, the Gifts are given to be a Blessing to the Church and to be a Blessiing to you!

So, how do you get the Best of them (Gifts)?

You are given the Opportunity and Freedom to covet or to desire!

That instruction makes it Plain to you and to us that there is no Spiritual Gift you really truly want for the “Right Purpose” and the “Right Reason” that God will not give you!

The Problem we have is that most of us have “Wrong Motives” and we need to clean that up.

And in coveting the Best Gifts; Apostle Paul said: I show you an Excellent Way to go get your desires.

There must be “Earnestness” but there is an Excellent Way of getting!

How do we desire?

He goes on to say: You may speak in Tongues of Men and of Angels; if you do not have Love, you are like a “Sounding Brass” or a “Tinkling Cymbal” – Like Tambourine that is making noise. That is all you are (DMC NOTES: The Bible Quotation under Reference here is 1 Corinthians 13:1).

He says that you may know all the Mysteries; if you have no Love, you are Nothing!

As a “Baby Christian”; I used to think that Apostle Paul was just trying to over-emphasised Love.

But then Brethren, everybody who get Anointed and becomes Gifted and does not grow and abide in Love, will be destroyed – That is the Danger of the Gift!

If you don’t grow in Love, the absence of Love will not reduce you to Nothing but to minus you!

So, I know that you are eager to be used and I know that Daddy (DMC NOTES: Referring to Daddy GO) has been talking to you about the Miraculous.

But if you get the Miraculous and there is absence of Love, the Miraculous will destroy you.

People want to be the Greatest, the Most Noble, the Most Famous and so on – Wrong Motives and it will destroy you.

So, what are you supposed to do?

Simple – What is the Purpose of the Gift?

To build Up the body, to bless the body!

So, everytime that you want the Manifestations of a Gift, think of the Blessings!

In 1978, I observed that my Ministry in Healing the Sick and Casting out Devils was growing enormously but it was lacking in Discerning of Spirits. I had Word of Knowledge, Word of Wisdom; I had Prophesy and so on and so forth.

But I discovered that I was limited when it comes to some cases because of the absence of Discerning of Spirit.

I turned to God and told Him: God, let us make a deal – I need You to add Discerning of Spirit to me so that it becomes easy for me to cast out devils. And God added it.

That is different from – Oh God, give me Discerning Spirit so that everybody will know that I have a Discerning Spirit and they will know that I’m a Prophet. Stupid Motivation!

I went to a Crusade somewhere; on the first Day of the Meeting, the crowd was very scanty and I decided to call for Miracles. And the Lord showed His Power, “Instant Healings’ – Deaf Dumb People who were sick, who were down; they were healed instantly with Testimonies.

A Young Man came around and say: “Odu re” (DMC NOTES: Meaning Deceit or Gimmicks).

He told one of my Disciples: See what your Oga (Meaning Master) is doing – He just came here doing Miracles and he just made an Altar Call and he went down.

He said that if it is my Oga (Master); he will snap Pictures and say: Do you like it? Send it round. He will make Noise on it and use it to raise Money.

“Odu re” (Deceits or Gimmicks) – I say: Hey!

So, my Disciple told him – You and your Oga (Master) must be on your way to Hell.

Go and ask Gehazi – He thought that the Gift of God was to make Money.

The Gift of God is not for “Pomp and Pride” – Get your Motives Right!

A lot of Anointed Men of God, their lives has been caught short.

They were Mightily used by God for Miracles, Signs and Wonders but they became History before they died or they died abruptly because they touched the Glory of God, they touched the Money of God and they abuse the girls.

Many People want to be used Mightily; but don’t forget that the Holy Spirit whose Power will be manifesting in you is called Holy!

I saw a Man of God who became Classmates with God – They became equal with God after God has Anointed them.

At their words the Lame will be rising and jumping, the Blind will be receiving their sight – They will be saying that it is me that God gave the Anointing.

They will edit and correct the Word of God, saying that they are wiser than God, making themselves equal with God and that is why they enter into shame.

Your Life will not end up like that – Amen!

I don’t know where God is sending you. But if you want to covet the Best of the Gifts; tell God that I want this for the Purpose of Blessing your Body!

If your Purpose today is for Soul Winning, then I am going to Pray – Any Spiritual Gift(s) that you want; my Father will release to you (Amen).

Coveting the Best Gift must be done in Love – You must be Humble, you must be Kind and you must be Compassionate.

• You heal the Sick, not to show Power but out of the Heart of Compassion that God if I were sick like this, I will want you to heal me.
• You must be “Easy Going”, you must not be Boastful and you must be Patient.

Because they will come when you are trying to sleep and you will be tempted to say: Don’t disturb me.

No! You must never give up!

For you to receive, you need to believe God and believed what I tell you.

It does not take God 10 Minutes to give out. The issue is whether your Heart is ready to receive.

I want to ask you some Questions:

I. Do you believe the Prayers that has been Prayed for you this Morning?

II. Do you believe that you are Anointed already?

III. Do you believe that you will ask and you will be given?

IV. Do you believe that the Fire will fall on you?

I have seen God remaining Faithful to His Words over and over again – Always Faithful!

Heaven will open shortly. Or let me say: Heaven has been opened, the Fire of the Gift(s) that you want will be released to you.

So, if you want a Release of any Spiritual Gift – To help the work in your hand and the Kingdom; rise to your feet as I Pray for you now!

Say: Father, I Promised You that I will not touch Your Glory, I will not touch the Glory that belongs to You. I will not be like Eli’s children, I will not be like Achan, I will not be like Gehazi. By the Grace of God, I will Sanctify your Money.

Say: Father, I receive Grace not to touch Your Glory – Everytime You work through me, I will give You all the Glory. I will not look down on anybody, neither will I become rude to my Leaders.

By the Grace of God, I also ask you to keep me from Sexual Lust and any other Uncleanliness. I will not take Advantage of the Anointing on my Life to abuse your flocks.

I trust You Oh God that You will give me as I ask You today and You will do beyond my Expectations in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

Based on this Commitment, Stretch forth your two (2) hands and ask the Lord in the Next 1 Minute the Gift(s) you want and what you want to do with it!

Now, can we conclude your Prayer?

And say: I receive by Faith what You Promised me.

That if I lack, I shall be Given.

I Open Up my Heart for the Fire to Fall down!

Thank You Lord! I believe Your Word, I believe Your Promise and I believe Your Servant,

It shall be unto me as I have asked in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

CLOSING PRAYER

My Father, my Father; I am not the Owner of the Gifts – They are Called the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit, You are the Owner.

Lord Jesus, You sent the Holy Spirit now as their hands are opened – Fire!

Let the Gifts fall – Prophesy, Diversity of Tongues, Interpretation of Tongues, Gifts of Healings, Working of Miracles, Faith, Discerning of Spirits, Words of Wisdom, Words of Knowledge.

Oh Lord, as You have “Destined Individuals”; let them begin to receive now!

Now shout – “I receive the Fire!!!

Thank You Lord – The Fire is Falling now!
