OPENING PRAYER
Our Father and our King, the Most High God, the ever Faithful, ever Sure Daddy!
The Lord of Host, the King of Glory,. The Jehovah Rapha, Jehovah Nissi, Jehovah Tsikenu. The One Who was and is, and yet to come:
We sincerely Glorify You, we sincerely Honour You – Most especially for a time like this, in our Nation Nigeria and all over the Nations, where the Youths are in RCCG.
We Thank You for Your Faithfulness concerning this Meeting – The RCCG Youth and Young Adult Convention 2022.
Thank You for safe arrival, Thank You for the Program, Thank You for those who have Ministered, Thank You for everything You have done thus far, and the ones You are going to do before the Convention is over.
We are just, just, just so Grateful. Accept our Thanks and Praises, in Jesus’ Name!
And so Father, in this Session; which is “Mother to Children”; we are saying Lord, the Father of children, You will come to our midst and be a Father over this Program and this Session.
Let there be Understanding of Your Word; let Your Name be Glorified! And in everything today, take Perfect Control.
I Submit myself to You, as a Vessel of Honour in Your hand. Please Lord, take over everything concerning me and use it for Your Glory.
In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Please,help me to congratulate your Neighbour to your right and to your left; and just tell him or her, “I am happy you are here. I believe you have been blessed thus far? But there are more blessings coming your way.”
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!
Since my Topic is, Mother to Children – Except when the mother is fighting her children, there is no need Standing up, to address and the children.
Since I am not fighting you, rather I am here to bless you. So, I am going to sit down (Laughter)!
… Please, be seated!
I really want to Thank the Lord for what He has been doing in RCCG, most especially considering the Youth.
And I sincerely want to Thank Him for Pastor Belemina Obunge and his wife. And all the Regional Youth Pastors (RYP’s), all Provincial Youth Pastors (PYP’s), and every Office of Leadership already occupied by the Youth of RCCG.
I Pray that the God of Heaven will continue to keep all our Leaders among the Youth, and He will guide them, and help them to lead the Youth in the way they should go, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Amen.
I have been told that I should give a talk on “Mother to Children”:
Psalms 127:3
Lo, children are an Heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
Brethren, Nobody will play with the heritage of the Lord. You are the Heritage of the Lord. You are our Heritage, you are the Fruits of our womb, and so we cherish you so much. And I want you to know that!
Hence, the National Youth Convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) is taking Place with all the Support from Heaven, to all the Governing Council Members: starting from the General Overseer to the least in the Hierarchy of RCCG.
And I Pray that, you (our Fruits) will not waste away, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
So, I welcome you to the Youth Convention 2022 again, and I congratulate you too.
And I am to talk about “Mother to Children”, I will like to go to read from Proverbs 31:1-7 and 31:
1 The words of king Lemuel, the Prophecy that his mother taught him.
2 What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?
3 Give not thy Strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for Princes Strong drink:
5 Lest they drink, and forget the law, and Pervert the Judgment of any of the afflicted.
6 Give Strong drink unto him that is ready to Perish, and Wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
7 Let him drink, and forget his Poverty, and remember his Misery no more.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works Praise her in the gates.
His mother taught him! The mother of a King – Of which I believe we are all Kings and Queens, Princes and Princesses before the Almighty God. According to Revelation 1:6:
His mother took out time to teach her son, who was a King. And the son now, was referring to it as a Prophecy.
I Pray this morning, and I Prophesy to you that, in the Name of Jesus, you will not miss the way – Amen.
The Light of God will Shine on your Path till the end of the day, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
So this woman, the mother of the King now advised the King on what he should do and what he should not do.
… That is what I am in the house to do today!
In the Book of Isaiah 60:1, the Bible says: Arise, Shine; for thy Light is come, and the Glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
I thought somebody will shout a louder Amen – AMEN!!!
I Thank God for all the Speakers who have spoken before me. And my advise to you is that:
You should not throw away all they have told you, put them in your left hand:
So that after all the Singing and Dancing in this Youth Convention, you would have something to fall back on when you get home.
… That is my first advise!
My Second Advise is that, Isaiah 60:1 is referring to Time. It says, Shine, your Light is come!
When I saw you all at the Opening Ceremony – Thank God for Pastor Bele. If Nobody wanted to watch the Opening Ceremony; Pastor Bele alone is enough to be watched. He danced for almost two and half (2½) hours.
Well done Sir! God will renew your Strength.
As I was watching the Welcome Ceremony Parade, I said: “God, You have done so much! This is just the first Night. By the time it’s Friday, You alone know how many of them would be on this Camp Ground. And those who cannot even come, Please Lord, help us to keep these children; let them seize this wonderful opportunity, don’t let it slip away from their hands.”
I was Praying about it, I was crying: because I know you are our Heritage; you are our tomorrow.
And if God can be so Gracious unto us, and raise you at this time for His Kingdom, what else do we want? We know our tomorrow will be alright – And it has started!
May the Lord keep you! You will fulfil your days, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Amen.
Whatever may be happening now is just a Passing Phase, it’s not going to last forever. It’s for a short time.
And God will keep you! You will live to see better, best, Excellent days in your lives, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
But listen to me my Advice: I want to talk about that “TIME’ that Isaiah 60:1 mentioned. It says – Arise, shine; for thy Light is come.
Which means, there is a Time for the coming of the Light – Whatever comes, it will go!
And I Pray that your Light will not leave you, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
So, if we are going to talk about Time, what do we need to know about Time?
Time cannot be tied down.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 says, To every thing there is a Season, and a Time to every Purpose under the Heaven:
That is why God is telling us, that we should remember our Creator at the Time of our Youth – Ecclesiastes 12:1
Do not put your Creator behind you, in your wardrobe – Everywhere you go, remember:
I. You have Somebody Who brought you to Life.
II. Who moulded you right from your mother’s womb;
III. Who knew you, Predestined you and He said that He will guide you to the end of that Destiny.
That is what our Creator said!
Brethren, especially those of us in RCCG, this is the Time for you to Shine! When we were at your Age we didn’t have this opportunity.
And for you to have this opportunity, seize it, don’t let it slip away from your hand. Don’t Procrastinate and say, “Oh I am going to pick it up later. Ha!
Tomorrow will be alright, in Jesus’ Name! But whatever you can have today, don’t Postpone till tomorrow. Because tomorrow May too late – It may be too late: we need to remember our Creator.
And that’s why in 1 John 2:14, the Bible says: I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the Word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.
… Because we are strong!
Tell somebody beside you, “You are Strong!”
While you are still Strong, you need to use the Strength Profitably. Because that is the Word of God to you.
He is writing to you now that you are Young; don’t play away your Strength, don’t waste it because Strength is the Glory of the Youth.
If there is any sick among you today; if there’s anyone among you whose Strength has been either damaged by emotions, circumstances around you, one form of accident or the other; today, God will renew it – Amen.
And He is not only going to renew it, He will make you Stronger, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Amen.
… Therefore, on this note:
WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT YOU SHOULD DO?
You have to be very Prayerful.
You have been Praying; ever since you came, I have been watching the Program but you need to Pray more.
In the Open Heavens this morning (Wednesday, 5th of October, 2022), in Mark 5:25, talking about the woman with the Issue of blood. We are told that she had the Issue of blood for twelve (12) years, before she encountered Jesus.
Then she realised she had lost her money to the Physicians, she had lost her beauty, her strength, lost everything. She then finally thought of it: there is a man called Jesus, let me touch the helm of His Garment – Once I do, I know I will be made Whole.
Brethren, you are not just hearing about Jesus, many of you were born by Godly Parents. Many of you have been Born Again right from your Primary School age.
… But have you made use of your Relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ?
Don’t let it be wasted!
This is the Time to arise to that Relationship. Have a bonding in this Convention – Bond with Jesus. Hold to Him firmly.
I love one Song that I composed – Each time I sing the Song it’s as if I am already in His Hands.
SONG:
Jesu, Jesu Jesu mi Jesu oooo (Jesus, Jesus, Jesus; my Jesus ooo) E ba mi pe – Jesu (Help me call Him – Jesus)!
Brethren, you have a wonderful opportunity now! – Bond with Jesus Christ before you leave this Place.
You don’t have to suffer for twelve (12) years like the woman with the Issue of blood; you don’t need to sell all your properties – There are things you don’t need to go to Physicians for, when Jesus is there.
The Bible says the woman had Issue of blood. What is your own Issue? What are you carrying around? What are the Issues you have? Is it depression, failures, lack of Helpers? There is no issue you have that God cannot solve.
This woman suffered; but one day she arose, she went, she touched the helm of His Garment – And she was made Whole.
All the Issues in your Life, today: God will put an end to all of them, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
So, the first thing is to bond in Prayer – That, “I will not let You go” like Jacob did!
That’s the first thing in knowing your Time, because your Time has come. This is your Time; no more Procrastination over more delay. This is your time. Isaiah 40:28-3.
Don’t joke with Prayers: every opportunity you have, Pray! Build on what you have already heard and Pray everywhere.
Do not make the mistakes of the People of the Past.
… Because, one Generation goes, another Generation will come!
If you listen now, every mistake of the People of the Past, you will not make it. And you will have an Express beautiful life, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Name!
Use your Energy Properly.
Because the Bible tells us that your Energy is your Glory (as youths). Whatever you have in your hand now, as the Lord begins to hold your hand, guiding and leading you, work to make things happen.
If you are lazy, this is the Time to arise and go for the Lord!
Every Garment of laziness, we tear today, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Amen!
Because when Bartimaeus wanted to go and meet Jesus (to receive his eyesight) he tore away the Garment of Blindness.
You must not leave this Convention with any form of “Lazy Garment” you had before you came!
Many of you are Lazy – Some of you are living with me: I know how we drill ourselves. Even Ordinary cooking, some of the boys cannot cook. Whereas there are some who can cook.
If you are in the Category of those who cannot cook, after this Meeting go and learn how to cook. There is no sin in men knowing how to cook.
And one thing I have learnt is that, when men cook – Ha! Those men who know how to cook are Super.
The beauty of it is that, your Time has come, so you must Shine!
Those of you who are already married, show yourself as the lord in your home. Do not expect your wife, who is your helpmeet to be the one to do everything. No way! It can’t work – Hallelujah!!!
We have to use our Strength Wisely. Because the way you build, you will grow with it.
Somebody was asking me one day, “we heard the GO treks 6 kilometers a day.” I said, “yes, what is your Problem with that?” He said, “do you trek with him?” I said, “I can trek more than 6 kilometers; but not at his Pace.”
He has been trekking more than 6 kilometers while he was thirteen (13) years – Leaving Ilesha Grammar School to Ifewara to go and collect his foodstuffs for the week. The man who already has trekking in his blood, do you think it will leave him? Even at age eighty plus (80+).
If you start Practicing from now, it will not leave you.
And one beautiful thing is that, the Strength of the man in the house is needed to make the woman what she should be!
… If you want to clap, Please do so! Hallelujah.
If a man is Strong Spiritually, he will help the woman that he married, by building her up Spiritually.
Most of the things that I know how to do, I always tell my husband: “I am collecting out of your Vision, to take my own Vision.
You need to be Strong!
As for you Ladies, your own Strength is Multi-Purpose – You need a lot of Strength for you to Shine and for your home to Shine. If you are not a Strong woman (Spiritually) you can’t raise Spiritual Children.
Look at the woman in Proverbs 31; we didn’t hear of the father of the King. The King said, it is my mother who Prophesied.
Ladies in the house, what kind of a mother are you right now, or you are going to be? What kind of Prophecies are you giving to your children?
We need Strength: and it is not the Strength to fight. It is the one that will be Physical, Spiritual, everything; to raise the Standard of everybody around you and to make you Shine; for the People to see your Light and Glorify your Father which is in Heaven.
You have to Study, to show yourself Approved.
2 Timothy l 2:15 says: Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.
We are the Light of the world. Jesus Christ is the Light, He showed us the way. His Word must be developed seriously in our Heart.
Proverbs 4:23 says: Keep thy Heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of Life.
Read Books written by other People, Study the Word of God. Don’t ordinarily Study, live it! Everything you see there that you need to add to your Vocabulary and Character, you put it there.
I read one book of recent, on “Rebranding” – One lady sent it to me. And I made a list of what I am going to rebrand in my Life and I have started. I even ordered four thousand (4,000) extra Copies from her, whichever am going to use for Mission work (if Jesus tarries)!
Brethren, the moment you refuse to Study, you will be dying little by little. You need to add Knowledge, add more Understanding. Get other People’s Ideas and ways of doing things: which you know are godly and can help you. And add them to your Life.
That is Part of Shinning!
And People will see you and say, “we like this ooo, your Life is already Glorifying your Father in Heaven.
… So shall it, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
We need Wisdom.
The mother in Proverbs 31was giving her son – The King, the way to rule. Even in judging the People. We need Wisdom in what we eat.
What is Wisdom?
Proverbs 4:7 says it is the Principal Thing.
You may have everything, but once you don’t have Wisdom, you have Nothing.
Because when Jesus Himself was growing, the Bible says, He grew in Wisdom – Luke 2:52
Many of us, we are so brilliant and energetic; we are this, we are that but we are not Wise! We abuse the People we shouldn’t abuse, comment on what we are not supposed to comment – Wisdom is the Principal th Thing!
Tell your Neighbour – You better get Wisdom.
And the Bible made it clear to us that the Wise are the ones who will Shine. Because they will not waste their lives; they will live according to the leading of God.
According to what the Bible tells us in the Book of Daniel 12:3:
“And they that be Wise shall Shine as the Brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to Righteousness as the Stars for ever and ever.”
When you are Wise you take your Light everywhere, you Shine! You turn those who are in Darkness to Light; those who are living the Life of sin, you turn them to Righteousness. And it is going to be for ever:
Because, as you are turning them to be Wise, they too will be turning others to be Wise. And as a result, your Wisdom become a way of Life to so many People.
… Those that are Wise will Shine!
Please help me tell your Neighbour again – “I beg you in the Name of the Lord Please, be Wise!”
… This is very important.
And this will lead me to Humility:
If you are Wise you will be Humble – You will know that whatever you have is not for you. You will know that it is only God who has been Gracious unto you to give you all you have!
Bro. Paul told the People, all the things you said I am doing, I am not the one doing them oooo: it is by the Grace of God.
Wisdom will lead you to Humility; because whatever you think you have – You are Tongue Talking, you have the Grace to Pray, you are Anointed to raise the dead, etc.
The General Overseer told us about one Bro. Sam who was so Anointed, that by the Grace of God, through him, three (3) dead People were raised back to Life. And as a result of that, whenever there is Bible Study in Church; Bro. Sam will say, “who is leading the Study tonight?” Oh, it’s so and so Brother.
Bro. Sam will say, “I am not going – How many dead Person’s has he raised from dead?” Pride!
Wisdom will make you to remain Humble.
That is why we must not make the Elders feel as if they are not worth anything. Very soon you too will become an Elder! So, stop saying, “don’t mind those Elders.”
If you don’t learn from the Experience of the Elders, how are you going to build your own Life?
1 Peter 5:6 says, Humble yourselves therefore under the Mighty Hand of God, that He may exalt you in due Time.
Brethren, in our Shining Forth, let us carry Humility in our Hearts.
Jesus humbled Himself.
The Bible says in Philippians 2:5 and 8, Let this Mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the Cross.
As result of His Humility, God exalted Him, gave Him a Name that’s above every other name. To the extent that, anything we ask, in the Name Jesus, we receive.
Brethren, what is it again, in our Shinning Forth?
We need to have Faith in God.
And through our Faith, it will call for determination – “This is what I will begin to do as from now on.”
And by the Grace of God, as you Stand and you are crying to God in Prayers concerning it, it will come to Pass – Amen!
Even while you are weak, you will receive Strength.
When you wait on Him, you humble yourself, then you have Faith in Him, it will come to Pass.
I love one of Pastor Nathaniel Bassey’s Songs:
What we are waiting for, He has done it for us, See what the Lord has done.
… That will be your Song very soon – Amen!
So, Faith in the Lord.
Hebrews 11:1 is very important. Because if you have Faith in God, with Him all things are Possible. There is nothing that happens, that there is no Solution with God. God has Solutions for everything.
When you wait on Him, He will surely come at the Appropriate Time and He will do it.
You need Anointing.
It is not the Anointing of just making Noise oooo (Only Speaking in Tongues). No! I mean the Solid Anointing that you will get answers on the Place of Prayer and at the Place of walking in the Love of God.
The Anointing will just come over you, and you will begin to see it in all your Operations. And People will begin to ask: “How do you do this? How do you that?”
And you will look at yourself – You are not the one who is doing it. But there is a Spirit in you, the Spirit of the Living God.
Anointing changed everything about Bro. Peter in Acts 2, after the Day of Pentecost finally came.
And our Lord Jesus Christ Himself lived the Life of Anointing.
Acts 10:38 says, How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with Power: who went about doing Good, and Healing all that were Oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him.
Because this Light we say you should Arise and Shine, is not talking about you alone, it is for other People to see God, to receive Healings, to receive Mercy and Peace.
What else can the Anointing do?
In Isaiah 10:27, the Bible says: And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the Anointing.
There are many of you who are carrying yokes all around. But I am telling you today, as the Lord lives, Who will not allow this Meeting to come and to pass, without leaving a landmark in your Life.
The Anointing you will receive in this Meeting, will destroy your own yoke, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
And God will use you to break other People’s yoke – Amen.
We are not here to play on words, we are here to resolidify our lives; to make us rooted and grounded in what we believe.
There’s Anointing! It is still there with the Father. And He will only give to those who ask Him – The more you ask Him, the more you will receive.
Because His Mercy is New every Morning, and His Compassion faileth not. Great has ever be His Faithfulness, and He will continue to be Faithful.
If He can be Faithful unto Peter, who was weak, whom People thought was an Ordinary Fisherman – Not learned. But he was Healing the sick, because he received the Anointing.
We need Anointing to make your Light to Shine, so that you will not be a “Local Champion”.
You are in Eket today, you are living in Port Harcourt or Enugu – Very soon, they will begin to hear your name in Casablanca, in Morocco, Lybia, Tunisia – Amen!
Maybe I am asking you to Pray for me, because all those Northern Parts of Africa, only two (2) Places are where I have not reached – And I am going to be there before I die, in Jesus’ Name – Amen!
By the Grace of God, I’ve just returned from Morocco!
So, your Light is not for “Local Championship”. The Bible calls you the Light of the world. Why should you limit yourself?
That is why you need to bond with Christ. So that when He puts His hand in your Life, Step by Step, Precept by Precept, He will be leading and guiding you. Where you don’t think you can ever be in Life, He will lead you there, and you will Shine Forth, in the Mighty Name of Jesus – Amen!
Finally, you need the Power of the Holy Ghost.
And then when you live a Life of Holiness, there is no way, temptation will come, storm will come.
Nobody is above Temptation – Jesus was tempted, but He won. We too, we shall win – Amen!
When that Power that Jesus has is in us, the Anointing is robbing on us as we are bonding with Him, there will be a Reflection, a Transformation and then we begin to do all we could never believe we can be able to do in Life.
And every Temptation that will now come, like Jesus said, “it is written.” That is why we need to Study. You too will be saying, “it is written” and the devil will be running away.
I know you are facing so many challenges; but 1 Peter 5:10 tells us that, But the God of all Grace, who hath called us unto his Eternal Glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you Perfect, Stablish, Strengthen, settle you.
That is why you are here in this Meeting – We need to be settled! Don’t worry about ASUU whatever, God is going to settle you! You are different, the mark of Christ is already upon your head. You cannot suffer like other Youths. That is why you are here – Receive the Light in this Meeting.
Matthew 6:13 says, And lead us not into Temptation, but deliver us from evil:
I told the People living with us – You better be saying it everyday.
The Lord Jesus Christ taught the Disciples of Old how to Pray – “Lead me not into Temptation, deliver me from evil.”
… It is a Prayer we must be Praying everyday.
Once you are in the Lord and you are living a Holy Life, whatever they may be saying, they won’t be your Judge on the Last Day: you will Stand before your Maker.
Brethren, these are my few words as a Mother to her Children, this morning:
I. Don’t miss your Time.
Ii. Pray, bond with Jesus Christ.
III. Don’t make it ‘our’ – make it your own.
IV. Be Wise, Study to show yourself approved; get Wisdom and Humble yourself.
V. Have Faith in God and determine that you are going to live in Him.
Acts 17:28 is one of my favorite Scriptures: For in Him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also His Offspring.
In You, I live, I move, and I have my being; Anything outside You, I don’t want to have anything to do with it.
Brethren, you will Shine! And the Time is now! No more Procrastination.
We are going to Pray: shall we all rise!
SONG:
My Life time, I will give God my Life; My Life time, I will give God my Life. If I give God my Life, He will take care of me: He will never ever let me down I will give God my Life time.
… I want you to sing this Song in Faith – Move around and boast in the Lord.
Are you going to give Him your Life time?
Begin to do the bonding now – Pray now: Tell Him to take you and help you. Make out Time to Practice all we have learned today.
… Begin to tell Him now!
In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!
CLOSING PRAYER
In the Mighty Name of Jesus:
I have Nothing except You Jehovah. You are my Portion for ever. I have sang it several times, that You are my Portion for ever and You have remained my Portion up till this moment.
You have been Faithful, and I am so Grateful to You!
You have brought me thus far to be a Mother in RCCG. I know I am not Worthy. But I receive with Joy, Humility and Thanksgiving.
Even as You helped the woman in Proverbs 31, I am Stepping into her shoes this morning, that in the Name of Jesus, all these Your Children will bond with You.
They will bond with the Almighty, Who has everything.
And according to Acts 17:28 that You gave me, “In You I live, I move and I have my being;” Let these Children live in You, let them move in You, let them have their being in You.
Anything that is not Yours, we separate all these Your Children from them, in the Name of Jesus.
Let Your eyes be upon them for Good!
Many of them have gone astray, they have made mistakes, suffered. But today, as they are bonding with You Jehovah: every form of mistake they have made, let it be a thing of the Past. Forgive them, show them Mercy.
Let them go away from this Meeting with a New Life, a New Peace, a New Joy, a New Strength, a New Grace so much that anywhere they go, People will see them, and see your mark upon them.
By the time this Convention is over, let them have Testimonies already. And while we shall hear about them, Jehovah anywhere in the world:
Let them show forth the Praises of You, our God, that has brought them out of Darkness into Your Marvellous li Light.
Help all their Leaders, give them the Great Anointing for this work. Anoint them in double fold!
And Lord, in RCCG, don’t let anything destroy our Youth.
Thank You for everything! In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!
Thank you so much for staying all through to read.

OPENING PRAYER
Spirit of the Living God, fall afresh upon Your People. Bless their lives. Let this Morning Session Change lives.
Let there be Transformation, let there be a Release of Grace and the Release of Favour, in Jesus’ Name!
… Can I hear a loud Amen – Amen.
This morning, I’m going to be just teaching quietly. I trust the Lord that it will bless you, and your Life will never be the same in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Shout a Massive Amen – Amen!
Genesis 48:14:
And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim’s head, who was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh’s head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh was the firstborn.
2 Kings 2:14:
And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is the LORD God of Elijah? And when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.
2 Timothy 2:2:
And the things that thou hast heard of me among many Witnesses, the same commit thou to Faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
… May God bless His Words – Amen!
I came this morning to share with you a Message titled: “PASS ON THE BATON”.
In other words, God brought you to this Conference to receive something that you will pass on to Generations. Whether you are ten (10) years old, twenty (20) years old, thirty (30) years old, fifty (50) or sixty (60) years old; God wants you pass on your Faith to the coming Generation.
God will use you, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
In the Olympic Games in 2004, in Athens – American Running Team, the man to put the Baton in another Person’s hand, he did not get to him – He allowed the Baton to drop!
In 2008 again, the same American Team, the Person who was supposed to put the Baton in the Next Person’s hand did not get him – He let the Baton dropped.
I came today to let you know – It is not enough for you to be in this Conference; It is important for you to receive something which you will pass to you children; which you will pass to Generations, pass to the Future.
You will make a difference! You will touch your World, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
In Numbers 27:18-19, the Bible says: And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him; And set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation; and give him a Charge in their sight.
Somebody is about to receive a Mantle here today! – You will have more than a Testimony. You will go home with Power, with the Anointing, with the Mantle and the Baton. You will pass on Greatness and Testimony.
… If you believe it shout, I RECEIVE it!
WHY SHOULD YOU PASS THE BATON TO OTHER PEOPLE?
Today, I Stand on this Altar – I want to Bless the Lord for Daddy and Mummy Adeboye.
I want to Thank God because they have weathered the Storm, they have spent their time, they have built the lives of many Generations, they have developed the Faith of many people.
You are here today because you are Standing on the Shoulders of those who have Paid a Price; those who have gone ahead of you.
We celebrate the Grace of God in their lives! The Life of God in them. They have passed on Batons to many men and women.
And I Pray that you, who is listening to me today or reading now on the Label of DMC, whatever you receive today, you will go to the four corners of the Earth with it – Amen.
Before I continue with my Message, may I ask you to put your hands together, let’s celebrate Daddy Adeboye and Mummy Adeboye. Give God the Praise for them. Thank God for them. Bless the Lord for them!
Why must you Pass on the Baton?
One generation must speak to another Generation. In Proverbs 1:8 it says: My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the Law of thy mother:
… In other words, you must pass the Baton to your children.
I lay hand on some young men and women here today; you will not backslide! You will not turn away from Christ. You will not stop serving Jesus. You will bless your Generation. You will keep the Fire burning – Amen.
Turn to your neighbour, tell them: Keep the Fire Burning!
In Leviticus 6:13, it says: The fire shall ever be burning upon the Altar; it shall never go out.
So you need to catch the zeal of the fathers; catch the zeal of the mothers.
… Why should you pass on the baton?
The ones coming behind you need to see that you love God.
You are serving God, you want to succeed – You want them also to succeed. You cannot afford a broken focus.
I am speaking to an active Youth Conference, there are lots of things going on in our Nation and around the world that can break a Person’s focus.
But I Pray for you today – May your eyes continue to be on Jesus! Your focus will not be broken; your Vision will not be broken; your Destiny will not be taken away; your Testimony will not be taken away – Amen!
… I hope I am Preaching to the right People today?
I came all the way to let you know what God is about to put in your hand, you will run with it to the end! You will finish well.
If you believe, shout a big Amen – AMEN!
Wherever you are today and you are hearing me – Maybe you are asking, “What are the Batons that have been Passed on to me that I need to run with?”
They have Passed on to you the words spoken into your Life; the word of Healing, the word of Salvation, the word of Life, the word of Hope, the word of Deliverance.
Don’t go on Google and begin to check – Is it true, is it not true? Google is the tree of Good and Evil: you can find Good there, you can find Evil there.
The Word you have received is the Word of Life – it shall Profit you! It shall work in your Life – Amen.
What Baton should you hold?
I. The Baton of the Wisdom imparted into you in this Conference, in your Youth Meetings;
The Word of Wisdom concerning how to live your Life; the Word of Wisdom concerning how to make Progress – They shall not drop out of your Life – Amen.
What should you hold on to?
II. You should hold on to the Baton of your Faith.
We live at a time – I love Young People, they are comparing Christianity with other Religions. They are not comparable!
Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life, no man can come to the Father except through Jesus Christ – John 14:6
Hold on to that Baton, no matter what Persecution, no matter what comes against you, hold on to the Baton of your Faith, keep your eyes on Christ, never Surrender, never Compromise.
III. Then you need to have the Baton of Courage.
What is courage? – It is the Ability to Stand for Jesus, the Ability to be a Testimony.
2 Timothy 1:7 says, For God hath not given us the Spirit of fear; but of Power, and of Love, and of a Sound Mind.
I Pray for you today, the Courage to Stand for Christ will rest in your Life; the Courage to be a Witness will Stand on your Life; the Courage to bless your Generation will rest on your Life; the Courage to not be Silent will rest on your Life. The world will hear from you – Amen!
… If you believe it, shout Amen – Amen!
IV. You must hold on to the Baton of the Love of God for you.
1 John 4:18 says, There is no fear in love; but Perfect Love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
You have been given the Baton of Love in a world of hatred.
People are against each other – Neighbour against Neighbour, People destroying one another, Terrorism – Anyone who does not agree with them, they send assassins, they send kidnappers.
… You have been Called to be different!
As you hold the Baton of Love, may God use you to be a Blessing. May you touch your Generation – Amen!
Let your Amen sound like Fire – Amen!
Somebody who is hearing me today or reading now on the Label of DMC – I declare to your Life that you’ll receive the Baton of Blessing. Blessing will be in your house, Blessing will be in your Life, Blessing will be in your family – Amen.
Shout Amen three (3) times: Amen! Amen!! Amen!!!
The Bible says in Genesis 48:14, 120 years old Jacob: Joseph came with his two sons (young boys). He put Ephraim to the left, because he’s the younger one. He put Manasseh to the his right of his father, because he is the older one.
Because in the Hebrew Culture, Blessings must go to the older one. And although Jacob was blind; he is about to pass the Baton of Abraham, Isaac and him (Jacob) now, to one of these two (2) boys – Ephraim on the right, Manasseh on the left.
And Jacob, though he was blind, he crossed his hands and put the Blessing on the younger boy (Ephraim).
This morning, by the Grace upon my Life and this Message He has given me to pass on the Baton to someone – God will cross His hand for you – Amen!
There will be a Transfer of Favour, there will be an Affirmation in your Life – Amen.
Somebody scream – I receive the Baton of Blessing and Favour, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
… Shout Amen with Power – Amen!
And Jacob passed the Blessing on the Younger one. He was a little boy – He probably didn’t know what was coming on him.
As he was passing it to him, he was Passing the Family Blessing – Abraham’s Blessing, Isaac’s Blessing and that of himself (Jacob).
Somebody is here: Today is the poorest you will ever be – Amen!
You would be a Stranger to Poverty; you would be a Stranger to Shame; you would be a Stranger to Limitation; you would be a Stranger to Failure; you would be a Stranger to Problems, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
He Passed on the Baton of Covenant Keeping God on the little boy, Ephraim.
If you know your Bible, you will know that later, Ephraim the little boy became bigger. Mannaseh the older boy became smaller.
… Because whatever God Blesses, no man can curse.
Today I declare over somebody here or reading now on the Label of DMC: They don’t know you now, but they will hear from you – Amen!
They don’t see you now, but they will see you soon – Amen!
They think you are small, but Heaven will lift you up – Amen!
I will like you to say: I receive the Baton!
From this day, you will go Places, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
It is what Lois and Eunice gave to Timothy. 2 Timothy 1:5 days – When I call to remembrance the unfeigned Faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am Persuaded that in thee also.
Ha! You have Fathers in the Faith, you have Mothers in the Faith, who have been passing Blessings to you; who have been passing Teachings to you.
You have come to this Conference; this shall be your Historical Conference – Amen.
It shall be the Conference of your turnaround – Amen!
Receive the Baton of Success; Receive the Baton of Greatness; Receive the Baton of Joy; Receive the Baton of Hope; Receive the Baton of Blessing.
Shout Amen with Power – AMEN!
Elijah had so many Students in his Bible School. Only Elisha was Pursuing the Baton.
Not everybody who comes to a Conference like this tends to be serious – Some People came, they think we are impressed by their fashion; some People think we are impressed by how they look.
They don’t know that being here, you need to be hungry to have the Baton passed on to them.
There were many Young Students in Elijah’s School, only Elisha was Pursuing for the Baton. So 2 Kings 2:10, he told his Boss, “I want a Double Portion of what you have! I want your Mantle, I want your Baton.
So Elijah said to him, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.
Elisha, when his Boss tells him to go somewhere, he said, “Sir, I can’t leave you.” When his Boss says, stay here I want to go there. He said, “Sir, I am following you.”
… Because he didn’t want to miss the Baton.
You have come to this Place, as you go back – To the East, to the West, to the North, to the South, you will be a Carrier of Mantles! You will be a Carrier of the Baton – Amen.
In ten (10) years time, when the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) is looking for Successful Men, you will be the Evidence – Amen!
When they are looking for Pastors, Evangelists, People of Purpose, you will be the Evidence – Amen!
Shout Amen with Power- Amen!
David had a Dream to build the House of God. He was ready – He bought all the things that were needed, he gave all the money. But God said to David, “it is your Dream, but I will want you to pass it on to your son.”
1 Chronicles 28:2, Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my Brethren, and my People: As for me, I had in mine heart to build an house of rest for the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building:
But God told him that he will not build it. That it was his Dream, but it is his son’s Destiny.
… Your father’s Dream, the son’s Destiny!
Some People have come to the Redemption Camp, and they are at this Youth Conference – The Dream is this house, the Dream of Nigeria will become your Destiny.
The Dream of your father’s house will become your Destiny.
Where your fathers could not reach, you will get there a thousand times!
What your mother could not do, you would achieve a thousand times.
What your father could not handle, you will do a thousand times.
David could not build it; Solomon had to build it.
Somebody is here today or reading now on the Label of DMC – What your father could never achieve, Ha!!! You will achieve a thousand times – Amen.
Shout Amen three (3) times – Amen! Amen!! Amen!!!
Maybe you don’t know the Mantle and Baton I am Passing on to you right now:
When I was a Young boy – My father was a Soldier. He served in Lagos, Ibadan, Kaduna, Kano, Zaria. He had an aspiration to be blessed; but he was always in need.
I believed that whatever Dream that my father had that made him to Change his Surname to ‘Ashimolowo’ which means, “Somebody who is so Blessed, he is giving out money to children.”
And the man never experienced it – Even though it was not a family name. It was his Dream! I took that Baton, it has become mine.
So today on this Altar: what your Dad could never achieve; what your Mom could never achieve; what your Generation could never make happen, you will achieve a thousand times- Amen!
Your Baton is Purpose – The Purpose for which God sent you to this Earth, you shall achieve it; you will fulfill it; it shall come to Pass – Amen!
You will not fail; your Purpose will come to pass; your Passion will become a reality. God will give you a New Drive, a New Learning, New Creativity, New Mindfulness, New Health and Fitness! Growth in every areas; Blessings in every areas.
Your Purpose is your Starting Point – From now on, you are going to Greater Heights (Amen)!
Your Purpose is your sense of importance: you will not die Cheaply – Amen!
You will fulfill Destiny! Your Life will be meaningful! And you will reach where God is taking you – Amen!
Shout Amen with Power- Amen!
Today, we pass the Baton of Purity into your hand!
In a Nation where People are doing what they like – Young me and women, living Life the way they like, sleeping wherever they like, doing whatever they like.
I release upon you, the Mantle of Purity, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
You will succeed; you will do well – Amen!
Shout Amen with Power – Amen!
Of all the Mantles and Batons that Baba Enoch Adeboye carries, that have touched the four corners of the world – for which everybody knows him; that has brought transformations to lives, that has brought Miracles, Healings, Deliverances – It is the Baton, the Mantle of Prayer.
Somebody is here today, from this day, may the Mantle of Prayer rest on your Life – Amen!
In Olympics they drop the Baton, they did not make it.
You will not drop the Baton, you will not drop Prayer, you will not drop Purity, you will not drop Power, Blessings, you will not drop your Faith, you will not drop Healing! Your hand will be the hand of Power, the hand of Glory – Amen.
As you come in contact with those Fathers in the Faith, who are holding the Baton – Looking for the Next Generation to hand over to; you will not miss them! You will connect in Power, with Grace, with Glory, with Blessing – Amen
Shout Amen three (3) times: Amen! Amen!! Amen!!!
In a Relay, the man to receive the Baton must start running – The Person to give the Baton must keep on running. They must connect on the same line and not different lines.
You will not backslide. You will stay in the Word, you will stay in the Faith. You will receive Power, you will receive Favour, you will receive Blessing!
The Last Man to receive the Baton is always the Strongest leg – He finishes very Strong, very Powerfully.
Some people are here today, you came from a house of Weakness, of trouble. A house of no Prayer, no Blessing, no Progress. “Everything get as e be!” But as you have stepped on this Holy Ground: you are going with Power – Amen!
From today, some of you in your Destiny, 1 Kings 18:16 you were supposed to be one of the Greatest Billionaires on Earth. And you are waiting for the Baton to be passed to you – The Baton of help.
I Declare and Decree today; the Person to pass the Baton of Prosperity, Increase, you will not miss them – Amen.
Baba Akindayomi was waiting for who to pass the Baton to – Baba Adeboye showed up! He was not the first to arrive, but he was the right man for the Baton, he is the right man for the Baton. He is right leg!
In Relay, you need to have the right leg to take the Baton and run with it – It is not age, it is a Stage!
Somebody is hearing me today or reading now on the Label of DMC – You are the next on the line – Amen!
The reason many never received the Baton is that they don’t know how to receive it – You will receive it with a Servant Heart.
While the Young men around said to Elisha, “hope you know your Oga is going today ooo?” He said, “I know, what’s your Problem?”
But as for Elisha, a Successful Business Man, who had twenty (20) oxen before he came to Ministry. And yet he desired what Elijah carried.
The Bible says in 2 Kings 2:12-14, And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the Chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces (humility). He took up also the mantle of Elijah (the Baton) that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan (Jordan means death); And he took the Mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is the LORD God of Elijah (Baba Adeboye)? And when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.
Today I ask you the same Question Elisha asked; He is here today and as I Prophesy – The Baton upon this House shall rest upon your Life – Amen.
Hear me with your Spirit, that the Mantle Baba Adeboye has carried, the Grace upon this Land, the Anointing in this Place. The Grace of the Fathers of Faith in this Place: the Mantle will pass on to your Life – Amen.
You are the Next Generation! – Grace, Power will come upon your Life!
Today is the day you’ll shift out of Black and White into Colour, into a New Season. The People you met in the house, you are leaving them behind – Amen!
Acts 13:1-3, Now there were in the Church that was at Antioch certain Prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. As they Ministered to the Lord, and Fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them. And when they had Fasted and Prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
Somebody is hearing me today or reading now on the Label of DMC – You will reach your Generation, you will touch your world, you will shake Systems – Amen!
The Bible says that Jacob crossed his hands. In Hebrews Culture, the right hand carries the Blessing.
Wherever you are and you are hearing me today, I Place the Right hand on your Life; I Place the Power on your Life – Amen.
Honour will come to your Life, Position will come to your Life, Favour will connect with you, Businesses will open to you. Connections will be your Portion. God will bring you into Breakthroughs – Amen!
The Singles amongst you will find their marriages. God will Single you out for Miracles. Your Struggles will be over, your Battles will be over, your Challenges will be over.
God will cross His hands for you – Those who think you are too much, they have not seen anything yet. You will increase to your Right, you will increase to your Left. You will increase forward, you will increase backwards, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
The grandfather (Jacob) crossed his hands. It is not intelligence, it is Baton. It is not smartness, it is Mantle.
Somebody is here today – They have looked down at you, they said you didn’t go to University: you will shock your Generation!
The grandfather crossed his hands and put the Blessing on a little boy called Ephraim – It’s not about your Age, it is about your Stage!
Somebody in this Service today, you are crossing over to Destiny, Crossing over to Greatness, to Favour. The Baton will be passed to you, the Favour will come to your house, the Testimony will come to your house. You are relocating to Blessing. Distinction is coming to you, Glory is coming to you, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
Some of you came to this Conference out of Struggles; God will cross His hands for you, for your Family, your Destiny, your Ministry, your Future, for your Favour, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
To those who said you will never amount to anything; God will cross His hands for you – Amen!
To those who said you will never Graduate; God has crossed His hands for you – Amen!
To those who said you will not do much in Life; God has crossed His hands for you – Amen!
To those who said you will not go forward in Life; God has crossed His hands for you – Amen!
Because of the Mantle, because of the Baton, you will bypass Systems: you will break Protocols.
Because of the Mantle, because of the Baton that have been passed into your hand: whether you are firstborn or last born, it does not matter. You will succeed. You will Increase – Amen!
When we get to the Books of Numbers and Deuteronmy, Manasseh began to be small; Ephraim began to be big. Because, whoever God blesses, no man can curse.
You are here today, as I stretch this Baton towards you: I declare that every Favour of God rest on your household. It rest on your Life – Amen!
Take the Baton of Success, of Blessing, of Marriage, of Finance, of Healing!
God will lift you up, He will set you up for Favour, set you up for Blessing, for Glory, for Testimony.
Shout Amen three (3) times: Amen! Amen!! Amen!!!

As Jacob passed the Blessing to Ephraim, receive in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
As Moses passed the Anointing of Leadership to Joshua, receive in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
As Elijah passed the Baton to Elisha, receive in the Name of Jesus – Amen!

Today, I bring this Prophetic Service to a Close by saying: As you are within the sound of my voice – Local and International, actual and virtual by Streaming or reading now on the Label of DMC:
I Declare to your Life – You will not pass on evil, you will not pass on sinfulness, you will not pass on curses.
You will pass on the Blessing, you will pass on the Prayer, you will pass on the Goodness, you will pass on the Greatest, Abundance, Testimony.
From today I declare to your Life, you are going from Glory to Glory, from Success to Success.
There are homes you enter and you know you have entered the House of Favour – I put the Baton in your hand today, your home shall be the House of Favour.
There are People you connect with, and when you meet them, your Life begins to multiply; your Joy begins to multiply. Your Life will be that kind, in Jesus’ Name!
Look at ten (10) People, tell them: Pass on the Baton – Pass it on!!!

COMPILATIONS BY:
MOSES DURODOLA, TITILAYOMI AJAYI AND TOPE BABALOLA
RCCG ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL YOUNG ADULTS AND YOUTH CONVENTION 2022
THEME: SHINE FORTH
MINISTERING DAY 4 (MORNING): PASTOR MATTHEW ASHIMOLOWO – SENIOR PASTOR, KINGSWAY INTERNATIONAL CHRISTIAN CENTRE (KICC) LONDON.
DATE: 6TH OCTOBER, 2022
BIBLE TEXT: LUKE 10:30-35
Wherever you are this morning hearing the Sound of my voice, may I ask you to raise one hand as a Point of Contact with the Holy Spirit.
OPENING PRAYER
Omnipotent Father of Mercy and Grace, Spirit of The Living God, bless us in this Service, speak to our lives, move us forward, bring us out of Limitation, bring us into the Fullness of what you have for us.
Let Your Name be Glorified. In Jesus’ Name – Amen!
… Say Amen with Fire in it – Amen! Hallelujah.
Luke 10:30-35, a very Popular Story:
30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,
34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.
This morning I came to announce, maybe not to everybody, but if you are in Nigeria and you are just tired of all that you see around you: “They said you should go to School, you went to School. Do this, you did it.” And still you can’t seem to see a way out.
It is you I came for – I came to announce to you to hold on, because help is on the way! I didn’t come for everybody, I came for someone who needs Help.
If you need Help, roar for God – HALLELUJAH!
When Jesus showed up it was at a time when everything they thought contradicted the Law of Moses.
They resented Jesus because He associated with People, Particularly People who were in Need. He reached out to People, He touched their lives.
Many times they sent Experts to question him, to get him tied to a corner. They asked Him difficult Questions.
This Lawyer was sent to trap Jesus: “Who is my Neighbour?” the man ask!
And Jesus said, your Neighbour is anyone you have the Power to help. And then Jesus tells the Story.
I like you to Note why Jesus used a Samaritan as an example of showing Mercy and Company. Under one Kingdom (I think it was Jeroboam) Israel broke into two – ten (10) Tribes stayed in the South and two (2) Tribes stayed in the North.
In the days of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat was actually King over only two (2) Tribes out of twelve (12). Ten (10) Tribes were in the South, two (2) Tribes were in the North. When they came from Babylon to carry them as Slaves, they carried the ten (10) Tribes; they missed all the two (2) Tribes at the top.
Those two (2) Tribes went and married the Gentiles. And because they were no longer “Pure Jews”, and they are married to the Gentiles, they were now known as Samaritans.
So, the Jews always avoided them like, “they are not as Pure as we are. We are the real sons of the soil.” A Jewish man will go any length to avoid a Samaritan because they are not like them.
And in the attempt of this man to bypass the Samaritan: he is travelling from Jerusalem to Jericho. He took a longer route to try to avoid the Samaritan’s.
Somebody is trying to avoid you because they think you are not their Class, Culture or Level. They don’t know that weeping may endure for a Night, but Joy comes in the morning.
Somebody does not know you today; but God will announce you – Amen.
This man avoided the Samaritans, took a longer route and ended up being attacked by thieves.
I want to look at this Message today by talking about:
THE MISERABLE MAN.
He needed Neighbours – When Life had turned difficult, when thieves have wounded him, when Life had become Miserable for him, when Life had thrown Challenges at him.
When everything he knew to do had been done and there was no other way out, he needed Neighbours. When he was sick, when he felt humiliated and lonely.
When he experienced grieve, animosity, hatred and rejection, he needed somebody to pick him up!
You know, People will bypass you many times when they don’t see what you can offer them. They don’t know that inside you there is Destiny, there is Purpose and a Calling.
And I Pray for somebody today – Those who have looked down at you; it won’t be long, they will look up to you – Amen.
You are just one name in the crowd today, but a day is coming, God will announce you – Amen.
This Miserable man was lost in his sin, in his pain, he was in a challenging situation. Economically his world was not good enough. Sometimes money can mess you up, Particularly when you don’t have enough of it.
In spite of all these, this man needed a Neighbour, yet Nobody responded to him.
In our world today, People are saying, “If I help this fellow what would come back to me?”
They don’t know that sometimes, the Bible says “Cast your bread upon the waters and you find it after many days – Ecclesiastes 11:1
Some People think if they don’t help you, you will remain down. But God will send Help to you! All of you desperately in Need of Help, Help would rise for you – Amen.
Everyone connected to this Conference, you just feel Miserable about Life; some Dreams of your Life have not come to Pass; some things you desire to do have not become realities.
I join my Faith with yours today and I declare, God will make a way out – Amen.
… Tthe second (2nd) Group we see in this Story are:
THE TERRIBLE THIEVES.
A Miserable Man, the Terrible Thieves.
The Bible says they were Aggressive and Violent. They are like the devil, who comes to kill, to steal and to destroy (John 10:10)
1 Peter 5:8 says: Be Sober, be Vigilant; because your Adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Restless Young men and women, I want you to know this – Even if you feel like the Miserable man, and things are not working for you, never walk away from Jesus; never Change your Faith.
Never denounce your believe in Christ, because things are tough today.
Listen: The most important thing that can ever happen to your Life is the Salvation of your Soul. That is why you need to understand. Even if you lose everything, don’t lose Christ.
A Yoruba Song says: “Even if I lose everything, but I seem to have Christ I have everything.” Don’t live on this Earth without Christ. This is very important!
In recent times some Young People who say they are Born Again have used Social Media to Persuade others, saying: Don’t even go to Church anymore, don’t believe in Church.
Ha! whoever gets you to the Place where you denounce Christ is being used of the enemy. And they are Part of the “Terrible Thieves”.
I Pray for you today – You will not lose your Faith; you will remain in the Lord – Amen.
But where I’m going this morning, these “Terrible Thieves”, the Bible says they stripped him of everything.
When I think of these Terrible Thieves, I think of those living in Africa. I think of Life under an Economy in a Nation that has Abundance and yet the People have Nothing to eat; the People can’t seem to see a way out; and the roads are not good enough. The System is not Good enough.
People lose their Pride, their Self-Respect, their Decency their Morality. Because some of the Terrible Thieves have stolen all that belong to us!
But I Stand on this Altar today and I declare that everyone who has stolen our Commonwealth, the Holy Ghost will chase them; God will fight them – Amen.
Every Terrible Thief that has stolen our Properties, we send God after them. Their families will not rest, they will not rest until we have our Properties and our Blessings back – Amen!
The man was in a Helpless situation – He needed Someone to step in. He could not help himself, he was almost dying.
No time for me to explain to you – The road they went to take, I drove Past it (I have been to Israel seven (7) times). The road he took is a cracky rock; it is not a Place to follow. Cars cannot follow there, even today. It is a Mountain’s way.
Just because he wanted to avoid People, now he gets himself in trouble – He was attacked, and they took everything.
I said to you today, every Terrible Thieves that is Stealing what belongs to you, we come against them by the Power of God – Amen.
We take back our Properties, we take back our Joy, our Favour, Testimony and Glory, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Help is on the way! It won’t be long. Help would rise for you and it won’t be long – Amen.
Terrible Thieves – They claim that a Snake has eaten Thirty six Million Naira (#36,000,000); a Accountant General of the Federation cannot account for one hundred and nine Billion Naira (#109,000,000,000).
Sahara Reporters carried this few days ago that an Ex-Inspector General of Police was removing from the Z Salaries of Recruits and he removed thirty five Billion Naira (#35,000,000,000) to go and buy Shares for his family.
We send the Holy Ghost after them – Fire of God burn them (Amen)!
Universities shut down for seven (7) Months; the roads are not Motorable, our Airport leaks – When you arrive at the Muritala Muhammed International Airport.
In the words of late Michael Jackson: “They don’t even care about us!”
The God of the Young men and women of Nigeria will arise and fight for us – Amen!
They go and buy Passports of other Nations, so that when they cause trouble, they can run away. Their children have never been to our Schools; they don’t even fly Local Airlines anymore. When they are going from Lagos to Abuja, they have to go by Private Jets that they hire Executive Jets.
Not that it is wrong to have a Private Jet, but we are saying, once in a while enter Local Passenger Airlines – “See how e be!”
When the System does not work, there is a Problem somewhere -:February’s Crude Oil for the whole of Nigeria disappeared!
… Oh, you didn’t hear the News?
It takes one (1) Month to load a Super Tanker with Crude Oil. When it was Standing on our water for one (1) Month, how come Nobody saw it, when they were Stealing the Crude Oil?
But I came this Morning to talk to some Youths and Young Adults who have been beaten down (like the man by the roadside) – I came to announce to you, hold on, help will rise for you! Favour, Glory, Testimony and Blessings are coming to your house, in Jesus’ Name – Amen!
*A Miserable Man, Terrible thieves and then:
A PASSING PRIEST.
The Church saw the Miserable man and Passed by him, “it is not my Problem.” Passing Priest from Jericho to Jerusalem saw him and Passed by.
Twelve Thousand (12,000) Priests travelled everyday (Not just the few mentioned here) from Jericho to Jerusalem. It is not more than 15km. And they bypassed this man (Twelve Thousand (12,000) People) – Nobody stopped!
There’s Somebody here today: God will give you a Heart of Compassion; God will use you to reach your world; He will bless your Generation: you will bring Healing at home, bring Deliverance and favoured to the People, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
How many of you, if God Prospers, you will touch our Generation? – The DMC FAMILY!
Open your hands wherever you are – I Prophesy from today, Uncommon Prosperity will come into your Hands; Uncommon Favour, Breakthrough and Glory will come into your Life. Your hand will Heal the sick, bless your Generation, touch your world – Amen.
Shout Amen three (3) times – Amen! Amen!! Amen!!!
That Lady who borrowed Transportation to come for this Conference, God will spin your Life around – Amen.
That man and woman who had made all they can do, who has worked so hard, to even feed your own Parents, God will surprise you – Amen.
A Miserable Man, Terrible Thieves, Passing Priests and Levites; but then come to the man they were trying to avoid – A Person they said is not Good enough, whom they were avoiding.
THE SAMARITAN
And I am going to share with you Seven (7) Things from the Samaritan, that God wants to use to spin your Life around.
How many of you are ready for their Life to go from Glory to Glory, from Favour to Favour, from Testimony to Testimony, from Power to Power? – The DMC FAMILY MEMBERS.
Everyone who has a rejected you, they are coming to the Brightness of your Shinning – Amen.
Like the Samaritan, everyone who has looked down at you, they are coming to Celebrate you – Amen.
There are some of you listening to me today or reading now on the Label of DMC – Some of you will Open Banks, Start Universities, Start Major Conglomeration, Launch Major Businesses and Ministries, step into Global Expressions.
Africa, Europe, Asia, America, will hear from you!
The Samaritan was travelling when suddenly he saw a Jewish man – Seven (7) Things:
VISION
He saw him! Luke 10:33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him,
From today, I Anoint your eyes: Every Treasures that has been hidden from you, your eyes will begin to see it! Treasures of Darkness will open up to you, Hidden Riches will open up to you; Treasures of the sea and of the sand will open up to you. The Blessings in Africa and the Treasures in Nigeria will open up to you – Amen.
Vision makes a man and changes a man’s Story. Vision is your Signature and Fingerprint. What makes you Unique defines your Life.
When you follow other People’s Vision, you miss in your own!
Today, I Pray for you, wherever you are and you are hearing me or reading now on the Label of DMC; the Vision that will take you from Glory to Glory God will put it in your Heart. You will see a New Vision and a New Dream – Amen!
The Passing Priest looked, he saw a dead man; the Samaritan looked he saw the Future.
How many of you have a Future here? – The DMC FAMILY MEMBERS.
The Passing Priest looked, he saw a man who is about to die. The Samaritan looked, he saw a man who is about to take Territories.
I came all the way from London to Prophesy to some People here:
I. The Vision that will take you from the back and put you in front, God will Place it in your Spirit – Amen!
II. The Vision that will take you out of the Limitation of your daddy’s house, out of the curses of your mama’s house, God will put the Vision in your Heart – Amen.
III. You are coming out of trouble, out of the mess. The Challenges of your father’s house will not be able to stop you, the battles of your mother’s house will not be able to stop you.
Some people have looked at you, they think you are finished, they think you are dead.
In John 11:25, Jesus said unto her, I am the Resurrection, and the Life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
I declare your Life today – Your Vision will come alive (Amen)!
Shout Amen three (3) times – Amen! Amen!! Amen!!!
COMPASSION
Then the Bible says, when he saw him he had Compassion.
I Stand on this Altar today to declare to your Life: Somebody would rise and show you Compassion. They would open doors for you, take you Places, remove Shame and embarrassment from your Life – Amen.
They will bless you beyond your Age, your Education, your Ability. The People you don’t know at all, you have never met them – They will be looking for you; they will bless your Life – Amen.
The Lord revealed to me and I saw that Somebody here, it was as if you were wearing rags; and somebody came and removed the rag and began to Beautify your Life.
Men who don’t know you will rise to bless you. Someone you have never met would underwrite your Life.
A Young man used to listen to me on Plateau Television, he was struggling in the University of Jos, and could hardly feed while he was Studying Geology. He said my Messages kept him going.
He finally Graduated, somehow got connected into Oil and Gas. Today, Ladies and Gentlemen, he is a Five Percent (5%) Owner of one of the Major Oil Lifting Companies from America (in Nigeria).
This Young man now lives in Dubai; has his own Private Jet, has houses in Dubai. He now came to Nigeria, and as he was driving by, he saw “Mama wey dey roast corn by the roadside.”
… And you know, no matter how high you become (as a Nigerian) “you go still want stop by the roadside to buy corn.”
So he told his driver to stop, “I want chop this corn: I no dey get them for Dubai.” And as they are Supplying the corn he looks at the woman, he saw that her daughter is not in school: Mama, why is your daughter not in School?
“My son, na so them dey ask oooo. This our corn business, e no dey reach us spend. Dem send her home make she go look for School fees, and I no even know where I go get am.”
So Mama, how much is this School fees? “My son, na Fifty (50,000) Naira.” He turned to the girl, “What class are you?” She said JS2. He said, Driver, collect their details – I will Pay her School fees up to Master’s Degree Level.
Somebody is here today or reading now on the Label of DMC – That Level of help will rise for you, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
ASSOCIATION
The Bible says in Luke 10:34, that he came nest and carried him.
Pastors, Bishops, Archbishops, all the Titled men “dey pass oooo.” But he saw him, he went to him.
Somebody say: Association!
Vision, Compassion Association.
Somebody will carry you on their Shoulders; they will rise and bless your family; they will touch your Life. God will send you Help.
Some People become big, you can’t even talk to them anymore! But Thank God for Jesus; Thank God for that HYMN:
There’s not a friend like the Lowly Jesus, No not one, no not one. None else could heal all our Soul’s diseases, No not one, no not one.
Jesus knows all about our Struggles, He will guide till the day is done, There’s not a friend like the Lowly Jesus, No not one, no not one.
God says in Hebrews 13:5, I will never leave you nor forsake you.
From today, may the Presence of the Lord never leave your Life! May He always be in your Life and in your work – Amen.
The Samaritan saw him, he felt his Pain – Compassion; he drew near – Association. But then he did another thing: He carried bottle of oil and Poured in his wounds.
UNCTION
I Stand on this Altar today and I declare to your Life – Fresh Oil is coming on your Life – Amen.
It will heal your Life, Set you free; the Oil of Power, Deliverance, Oil Movement will come upon your Life. As you leave this Place, a New Anointing will come upon your Life.
I Anoint your hands to heal the sick. You will be a Carrier of the Anointing, of Power, of Grace, of Oil.
James 5:14 says, Is any sick among you? Let him call for the Elders of the Church; and let them Pray over him, anointing him with Oil in the Name of the Lord:
I lay hand on Somebody today: Every Health issue, every Challenges in your Life, the Power of God will destroy it. Fresh Oil will rest on your Life. You will be a Carrier of Unction and Power, in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
Matthew 6:17 says, But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
From today, may the Oil of God rest on your Life – Amen!
Mark 6:13 says, And they cast out many devils, and anointed with Oil many that were Sick, and healed them.
As you leave this Conference this Year, you will not go back back and remain the same – Amen.
Psalms 23:5-6 says, Thou anointest my head with Oil; my cup runneth over. Surely Goodness and Mercy shall follow me all the days of my Life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
Today, I declare to your Life, as the Oil touches you, a New Season of Glory, Level, Power, new Anointing – Amen!
Luke 4:18 says, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to Preach the Gospel to the Poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to Preach Deliverance to the Captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at Liberty them that are bruised,
Get ready, you will carry Anointing, carry Grace and walk in Victory, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
You need the Oil to be able to smash the work of the enemy, overpower the works of the enemy; to annihilate the works of the devil, trash and vanquish every lie of Satan.
And I declare to your Life today, you will not go empty-handed. By the Auction of God, David humiliated Goliath. Every Goliath in your Life shall be humiliated – Amen.
By the Auction of God, Saul an Ordinary man became associated with Prophets. So that they were saying, “Is Saul also among the Prophets?”
I Anoint your eyes, you will see like a Prophet. I Anoint your ears, you will hear like a Prophet. And your hands will heal like an Evangelist – Amen!
By the Oil of God, Elijah spoke to flour and bread multiplied to feed the family; because of the Auction of God on your Life, today is Poorest you will ever be – Amen!
PURIFICATION
Then he took the Wine and Poured it in his Life. Live Pure! Keep yourself as a Young man and woman.
As I bring this Meeting to a close; I declare:
I. Wine is a Symbol of Joy – Joy will not lack in your house – Amen!
II. Wine is a Symbol of Abundance – Abundance will be in your house – Amen!
III. Wine is a Symbol of tremendous Love – Love will be in your Life – Amen!
IV. Wine is a Symbol of Rejoicing – From today there be rejoicing in your house – Amen.
V. Wine is the Symbol of the Blood of Jesus – I draw the Blood Line around your Life – Amen!
No weapon formed against you shall Prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against you in Judgement I condemn!
He saw him – Vision; he felt for him – Compassion; he came Close – Association, he took Oil and Poured in his wounds – Auction; he took wine and Poured in his Life – Purification.
… Then he carried the man to the Inn.
CONTINUATION
He didn’t stop there, he continued! – He carried the man.
I decree from this Altar today, the kind of Helpers that will rise for you; they will continue and continue to Help you; lift you and bless you – Amen!
May you be under Continuous Favour, Continuous Blessing, Glory, Auction, and may the Oil of your house never ceases.
PROVISION.
He brought out money and paid. He said, I pay for now and I also pay for later; and if it is not enough, I am coming back to Supply even more.
Upon this Altar I stand today and I declare: The Greatest Good Samaritan Himself, Who knows you and knows your Pain; Who sees you and knows how you feel; He will make Provisions in your Life – Amen.
Your head will not lack Oil, your hand will not lack Blessing.
Wherever you are and you are hearing me or reading now on the Label of DMC: I am Prophesying Provision into your Life right now.
Receive Open Heavens, Progress, New Things, Victory, Grace, Fresh Ideas, Plenty, Good Things, Anointing, Breakthrough, Enlargement, Abundance, Success, Expansion, Favour, Achievement, Glory, Endorsement, Peace, Joy, Increase, Health, Help, in Jesus’ Name.

Maybe I am the only one who needs Help. How many of you need Help here? – The DMC FAMILY MEMBERS!
I say: Help is coming, it won’t be long – Amen!
Two hundred and Twenty Million (220,000,000) Nigerians cannot be under arrest in the hands of Terrible Thieves.
Help is coming – It won’t be long!
Open your mouth and begin to ask for Help from the Lord.
Psalms 47:1 says, God is our refuge and Strength, a Very Present Help in trouble.
Unusual Help is coming, it won’t be long! Hold on my brother, hold on my sister.

COMPILATIONS BY:
MOSES DURODOLA, TITILAYOMI AJAYI AND TOPE BABALOLA
RCCG ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL YOUNG ADULTS AND YOUTH CONVENTION 2022
THEME: SHINE FORTH
MINISTERING DAY 4 (EVENING) – A SESSION WITH THE FATHER: PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE
DATE: 6TH OCTOBER, 2022

Thank You Lord. Glory be to Your Holy Name.
Let Us Pray!
SONG
I have a Father Almighty Father He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords I have a Father Hallelujah

Our Father and our God, the Ancient of Days; we Worship You.
The Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning and the Ending; we adore You. Please, accept our Thanks in Jesus Name.

Well, let Someone shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
Well, shake hands with one (1) or two (2) People and tell him or her: It is going to be well with you, you know!
And then you may Please be seated.
Matthew 5: 14-16
Ye are the Light of the world. A City that is set on an Hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a Candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a Candlestick; and it giveth Light unto all that are in the house.
Let your Light so Shine before men, that they may see your Good Works, and Glorify your Father which is in Heaven.
There are ways of treating a Topic:
I. There is the Preaching Aspect.
II. There is the Teaching Aspect.
III. There is that Aspect that is called Digging Deep.
Tomorrow (Friday, 7th October 2022 during the Holy Ghost Service Night), we will be Preaching; at the Holy Communion Service (Thursday, 6th October 2022), we did some Teaching. But since this is our own Convention, we had Planned that this Night, we will do some Digging Deep.
And if we are going to do Digging Deep – Because Digging Deep is for the Matured, then we need to Pay close attention.
Babies drink Milk, when they begin to grow, they grow to taking meat. When they are Strong, they begin to cracks bones.
So today, I want to look at “Shine Forth” for you at a Deeper Level.
I have listened to some of your Speakers in my Prayer Room when I had some breathing Space and I thank God for the tremendous amount of Knowledge that has been poured into you.
I thank God for Apostle Joshua Selman, I thank God for Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo. And believe it or not, I thank God for Mummy GO (Pastor (Mrs) Folu Adeboye).
“Shine Forth” – And we may hear a little more on that tomorrow (Friday, 7th October 2022) on the Preaching side; means several things:
It means “Radiate”; it means “Stay where you are and influence something that is far away from you”.
Way back in 1989; there was a Program at Port Harcourt (DMC NOTES: “Port Harcourt is the Capital City of Rivers State of Nigeria) – Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship International (FGBMFI). Only “Big People” were there but we spoke about “The Anointing”.
It took some “Hefty Men” about a dozen (12) of them to smuggle me out of there because God did something.
So, He is going to do something tonight and you are just trying to jump the gun – Wait for Him, He will do something tonight.
To the Young People, “Shine Forth” is a Command.
It is like when you say: Forward March to a Set of Soldiers.
And it means: Aggressively Show your Light!
It actually means: Be Aggressive – Be Aggressive against Darkness (Don’t hide what you have).
It actually means: Display Violence.
It means that you remember Matthew 11:12 – From the days of John the Baptist, the Kingdom of God suffereth Violence and the Violent has taken it by Force.
It means: Don’t wait for your Ship to come to the Shore – Jump into the water, grab the Ship and Pull it in.
So, something deep within you was already telling you what is in the Sermon – It’s only that you are doing it in the wrong way.
“Shine Forth” is a Command – In Mark 5: 25-34; the woman with the Issue of Blood shone forth. She wasn’t waiting for Jesus Christ to come and Pray for her.
When they say that she came from behind – Remember that there was a crowd. She forced her way through the crowd and Practically stole her Miracle.
You remembered the cry of Peter when Jesus Christ said: Who touched me? It wasn’t an “Ordinary Touch”; it was a Statement of: Who stole something from me?
In Mark 2: 1-12; the People who brought that Young Man who was Paralysed from Neck downwards, who broke the roof of the house. They were Shinning Forth, they were displaying their Faith forcefully – Nothing was going to stop them.
The crowd didn’t stop them – They had to climb the roof and the roof didn’t stop them. They had to break loss – The roof didn’t stop them.
They Shone Forth and they got what they wanted!
And whether you believed it or not, there is at least one ,(1) Person here tonight who will get what he or she wanted – Amen!
It was not an “Ordinary Faith” that came to this Jungle to start a City – It is the kind of Faith that Shines Forth.
Believe it or not, at the time when I brought my wife and my children to live here, this was the Headquarters of “High-Way Robbers” – They were robbing right infront of us here everyday. When we are going through the bush, we saw the Headquarters where they were sharing boxes etc.
Apart from the “High-Way Robbers”; the other Fellows here were Pythons – Huge Things – We were killing Pythons almost every week. The first one we caught was almost six (6) Metres Long.
But we stayed here because this is our Land and we must Possess our Possession.
^Shine Forth” means take your Destiny in your own hand and say: I will become what God wants me to become.
I heard Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo saying: What God wants to do for you, the devil can’t stop it and there is nothing he can do about it.
“Shine Forth” will tell you that in Matthew 2: 1-12; when the mother of Jesus Christ went to Him and said: They have no Wine. And Jesus said to her: Woman, my time has not yet come.
It was an insult as it were – And Mama (Meaning Mother) has come to her son to make a Request and the son Practically Shunning her off in the Presence of People. “Woman, leave me alone!^
The mother “Shine Forth”; she wasn’t going to surrender to: “Your time hasn’t come?” Who said so? Your time will come today!
So, she ignored the insults and said to those who are Standing by: You want Wine? Whatever He asked you to do, do it. You know the rest of the Story.
But the Classical Example of “Shinning Forth” is found in Matthew 15: 21-28.
You remembered that woman who came and said to the Lord: My daughter is grievously vexed of the devil, help me.
And Jesus Christ didn’t answer her a word. And the Disciples said that she is “Too Noisy”, send her away.
Jesus Christ said that: I’m not sent but to the House of Israel. This one is not an Israeli, don’t bothered me about her.
And she came and fell before the Lord and said: Just have Mercy on me. And the Lord said that I can’t give the Bread of children to dogs – You know the Story!
And she said that I am a dog – I agreed. But this dog here is not going anywhere. This was in Matthew Chapter 15.
The time for the Gentiles came in Acts Chapter 10 – When God sent Peter to the house of Cornelius several years later.
But this woman went into the Future and brought the Future into the Present – I’m not going to wait till the time of Cornelius. I need help now
Don’t wait for your Ship to come – Jump into the water and bring it in by Force!
I have a Young son, who became the Vice Chancellor (VC) of The Redeemer’s University of Nigeria (RUN); who came to me and said: Daddy, I know that we have the land for Redeemer’s University of Nigeria (RUN) at Ede in Osun State Nigeria and it is a Jungle.
I said: Yes my son, what are you saying? He said that we are comfortable here (DMC NOTES: Referring to their Temporary Site at the Redemption City of God) – There is Light, there is Water, we are Close to Lagos, everything is fine. But daddy, your Faith turned the Jungle here to what we are enjoying. I’m going to Ede and the University is going with me. No Light there, no Water there, no Conveniency there but unless you stopped me and you say it is God who asked you to stopped me. Minus those two (2); I’m going to Ede.
I said: My son, we go together!
DMC NOTES: Redeemer’s University is a Private University in Ede, Osun, off Ibadan-Oshogbo Road, Osun State, Nigeria. Established in 2005, the University is owned by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).
That is the meaning of “Shine Forth”!
Oh, I am the son of Pastor Adeboye – All those who came to Preach, I Stand on the Anointing of my father, Pastor Adeboye and I declare to you.
Why should People come from Outside to come and Pronounce Blessings on you when you are the owner of the father?
You came to this Conference, not for Show; you came to this Conference for your Destiny to be Changed; you came to this Conference to begin to “Shine Forth” the children of who you are.
I hear it again and again when People are giving Testimonies – I called on the God of Adeboye. Who is Adeboye? Adeboye is Nothing.
They are talking of Adeboye, they are talking of his God – I called on the God of Adeboye and He answered. And here are my own children, sitting down as if they are helpless, as if they don’t have the God of their father behind them.
From this moment onwards, don’t sit down, expecting Miracle – Provoke the Miracles.
God didn’t say: And these Signs shall come and meet you. He said: These Signs shall follow you!
We are talking about Mobilisations – Oh Congratulations, at least you are more than double those who came Last Year. You tried.
But do you want to hear the Truth? I looked at you and I Pity you. I looked at you and I can understand why God won’t allow me to retire yet.
Look at those who are going to take over from me? They can’t even fill a Quarter of the Old Arena.
This is Youth Convention – By now, Miracles are supposed to be happening through the smallest of you – That when People hear in your Town that you are going somewhere, they will come on their own without Invitation.
“Shine Forth”; show your Stuff, show the Children of who you are.
When People see you at your Tender Age making the Lame walk, the Blind to see, raise the dead; the People will say: This “Small Boy”? They will say: Don’t you know his father?
Don’t wait for Miracles – Provoke the Miracles!
When we go to “Light Up” somewhere and we asked a Preacher to come and Preach. When they are Preaching, they are glancing behind to be sure I’m seated down there.
I’m Nobody but I know my Father – God is my Father. The one Standing there Preaching, is to a large extent thinking that daddy is here.
Daddy is there – Basing his Confidence on my God is here!
Find out, in every “Light Up” Crusade, there will be Miracles – You find the Young ones there Provoking Miracles.
… Today, the Blind will see; today, the Lame will walk.
They are Practically saying to Jesus Christ – You better do something because I have told these People that this is who You are.
Jesus Christ won’t fail you; He won’t fail Himself – The Word of God made it abundantly clear: Let all Men be liars, but God will be true.
The Word of God says it Clearly: God will not deny Himself.
I mean: Let People still see in you by now some traits that will cause People to say: Who are these?
You know that there was a time in this Nation when you ask some People – Are you a Christian? They will say: “I am Deeper Life”.
What are they saying then: I am not just an “Ordinary Christian”; I am Deeper Life.
And I thank God for that Ministry – It shook the Country at that time.
Now, here you are – And I’m saying with all Humility: With an “Awesome Grace” available to you from Heaven, Grace beyond Human Comprehension and how are you showing it?
Years ago, I went to America (To Kenneth E. Hagin Camp Meeting) and I went with some of my children – I mean Members of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).
And when we got there, I was looking at some books and these my children are going to where they will sit. And they saw a Nigerian Chief over there in America and they all Prostrated and greeted him.
The Man said: In America? Then the Man lifted up his eyes and saw me coming – No wonder, they are children of Adeboye. He saw something in them – He saw Humility of a kind that is not common.
DMC NOTES: Kenneth Erwin Hagin was an American Preacher. He is known for Pioneering the Word of Faith Movement.
If your father can as a result of his own father – The King of Kings; can wave his hands and Handkerchiefs become Anointed and it is raising the dead; who are you? Show us: Like father, like son!
I. Don’t wait for the Sick to come to you for Prayers – Seek them out and go and heal them.
II. Don’t wait for the Captives – Go and set them Free.
I told you of a Meeting that was held in Port Harcourt (Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship International (FGBMFI) in 1989) – Why was I smuggled out of the Place? Because everybody there wanted to touch me. And so they smuggled me into the car.
And as the car was going, there was this “Little Girl” who ran after the car and touched the car with an Handkerchief – She said: Alright, I got something.
She got home, only to discovered that her Sister was Mad, being held down by four (4) or five (5) Hefty Men. And she got there and said move aside, I have something here. She laid that handkerchief that touched the car on that girl and the girl become as Gentle as a Lamb again.
Seek Out the Sick, heal them; seek out the Possessed, set them Free.
It’s a Command – “Shine Forth” is not an Appeal. God is Commanding you!
You have learnt a lot, you know the Word. Whether you believed it or not, many of you know the Bible more than the Evangelist Abroad.
If you don’t believe me, you Watch them on Television – They quote one Bible Passage and the rest of the Story, they are jumping up and down the Stage, sweating and repeating the same thing over and over again.
Any of you that we give the Microphone to, will teach many of these People – Wait till tomorrow (Friday, 7th October 2022) now and you will see my Young ones from the various Zones manifesting the Word of God.
You have the Stuff, why are you not using it? But things will Change from tonight – Amen!
Don’t wait for the Herbalist or whatever in your Village to come to you and sit quietly to listen to your Sermon – No! Demonstrate the Power of God, show them that Power Passes Power.
When Paul the Apostle cast out the Socerer, the Governor believed.
Jesus Christ Himself said: This People won’t believed, unless they see Signs and Wonders.
I told you that when we came here, there was a tree near the very, very first Auditorium. I was going out at Night and I looked up and saw fire on the tree – And I mean “Real Fire”. And I thought one of my children must have laid fire at the root of the tree and now left it there and the fire had now gone up. When I woke up the following morning, there was no Sign of fire – The leaves were Green.
Ha, Ha; what kind of tree is this? And I called the Head Carpenter and he said that we are afraid to tell you – Tell me what? At Night, we hear voices inside that tree. At times, we will hear the Pounding of yam inside that tree.
And you didn’t tell me? The first Set of Bible College Students were here then. This is my Ground, God has given me this Ground. How can the devil be dwelling in the same Place with me?
Some of you run from Darkness but I fight them. I chased them out.
So, I told the Bible College Students – Go and get your cutlass, you must cut down the tree.
As soon as they began to cut the tree, as if by Signal; all the Villages who used to live around here, gathered together – What are you doing? And the children told them that we are cutting down this tree.
Ha, if you cut down the tree, by tomorrow morning it will Stand up again and as it is coming up, those of you who cut it down will be dying.
So, the Poor children ran to me afraid. I said don’t mind the devil. Go and cut down the tree. If it rises again, then Jesus Christ is not Lord.
Of course, the tree never rose and the children then are Elders now.
I have told you the Story of one of my Little children who went to the Pastor in one of the Little Churches in Ekiti State Nigeria. And he rented a house and he didn’t know that the house is next to the house of the Chief Herbalist of the Town.
And of course, he began to move in the Power of the Holy Spirit, demonstrating that Jesus Christ heals and so on and so forth. So, the Customers of the Herbalist was no longer coming to him – They were going to the house of my son.
And he said: Is that so? I know how to finish you.
So one day, the boy went to Church, all the doors and windows locked.
By the time he came back, there was a hen, brooding over some eggs.
In Yorubaland, at least we know the meaning of that – Even if you just lift up your leg to Pursue the hen, that leg is going to wither immediately. If you bend down to Pick Up that hen, your back is supposed to break.
… That was the devil Paying a visit – Sitting down there to kill.
Then my son got there and say: Hey Lord, what a Wonder You are? You know that I have no money to buy a Chicken, You brought one in, You know that its a long time that I ate egg last – Ha, Thank You Lord!
If it were some of you, you will run.
From now on, no more running – Amen!
He just said that I cover you in the Blood of the Lamb – Chicken, welcome to my Dinning Table; Egg, God bless you.
And the Herbalist expected the cry of agony, expected People to come and take the dead body of the Pastor out. And he wake up the following morning and saw the Pastor going to Church – He surrendered his Life to Jesus Christ! Because he saw that Power Passes Power.
You have been Baptised in the Holy Spirit – I have been listening to you Praying in Tongues. But are you just supposed to Pray in Tongue and not do something about it?
Peter said: Silver and Gold have I none but what I have, I give.
Don’t wait till you have enough money to build a Church – Start a House Fellowship!
As soon as I got Born Again at the University of Lagos (Unilag); I started a Fellowship in my office. During break time, all the People that I know that I have Authority over – The Typists, the Cleaners, the Messengers; People that more or less must fear me, I bullied them to my Office for fifteen (15) Minutes for Bible Study.
You said that is not done – Who told you? If you don’t do what has not been done before, you will not become what Nobody else has become.
I was still talking to the Senior Pastors today – I told them that we built houses on this Camp in seven (7) days.
You say it cannot be done, the house will fall down.
If I built a house in 1983 and it has not suffered a Single crack till now (2022); that house is going to Stand.
Oh, its a Bungalow. But I have built a Storey Building in eighteen (18) days – That is not bad for a Mathematician. We don’t obey the Rules of Engineering; we obey the Rule of Heaven.
From now on, you will leave this Place not Playing Church but “Shinning Forth” – Amen!
I don’t want you to leave this Place and just say all I am is just a Member of the Choir – Sing and raise the dead. Let the dead hear your Song and come back to Life; let the dead see your mouth moving and say I must hear what that Fellow has to say. Sing and get deaf ear opened.
Why do I want to be an Usher?
So that those who are coming to Church, as I am shaking their hands, they are losing their Sickness, losing their Diseases; Miracles are flowing through me to them.
You must have a reason why you go to Church; you must show the world that you are different!
Whether you know it or not, the devil has his own Disciples and everything they do, they do it for a Purpose.
Years ago, when the Power of God came down; a Midwife confessed and said that the reason she wanted to be a Midwife is such that blood is always Plenty there when People are Delivering. She became a Midwife so that she can drink blood.
You become a Child of God so that you can deal with Evil Forces!
I want you to go back to your Churches and turn everything Upside down.
When I say: Turn everything Upside down, I didn’t say disobey your Pastors – No, I am saying that you get to the Church before everyone else get to the Church, you lay hands on every Chairs and Command them to be filled with People.
Those of you who are Workers, when you come for Convention, I always tell you – Tomorrow morning, take yourselves in two’s, surround the Camp and Pray. I’m trying to teach you how to Show Off, to Shine Forth.
Before you came, you know that I go round the Camp Praying – At least, quite a few of you sees me.
Let me tell you – When you see an Old Man walking about at 2am, he is not on a Stroll. So, don’t say that I want to greet you daddy – Don’t greet me as I am on an Assignment.
Ha, daddy you must hear my Case o – No, I am not Praying for Individuals, I am Praying some “Big Prayers”. If I say: God Bless You, that should be enough for you. So, don’t disturb me when I am Praying at Night.
And then some of you (Young Ones); you will see me walking at Night and you will want to follow me. What for? I don’t need Company.
Some of you think that you have issues – How many issues do you think I have? – All your issues added together, Plus all the issues of the Churches all over the world.
So, I don’t want anybody to disturb me, I want to do my own. Don’t follow me, go your way!
Finally, I don’t want to take your time – You know that it is written: Covet earnestly the Best Gifts.
There are two (2) Major Places in the Bible where Covetousness is approved:
I. Covet earnestly the Best Gifts (DMC NOTES: 1 Corinthians 12:31)
II. Covet to Prophesy (DMC NOTES: 1 Corinthians 14:39)
If you are asking God for Gifts: Gifts for Healing, Gifts for the Working of Miracles et cetera et cetera; ask for the Gift of the Word of Prophesy). It is a Great Gift to be able to hear from God; then no “False Prophet” can deceive you!
You know that I have heard all sorts of Prophets in Nigeria Prophesying. I don’t argue with them; I don’t say they are telling lies but I always say that my Daddy didn’t tell me that – That is a very Polite way of saying that you are lying.
And God wants to speak to you so that you can go about bragging that you are a Prophet – No! But at least be able to hear from God for yourself.
I. If you can hear from God for yourself, you won’t marry the Wrong Fellow.
II. If you can hear from God for yourself, you will be able to discern between a Wolf and a Lamb.
It is not everything that Glitters that is Gold; it is not every “Beautiful Gift” that is from God!
Don’t let any “Beautiful Voice” deceive you – Don’t forget that satan was the Choir Master of Heaven before.
And that Young Man that you see, who is trying to bamboozled you; ask God and God will show you this Person is a Wolf!
… Covet the Best Gifts!
I told you before – I told the Almighty God, everything that Elijah had, Plus everything that Elisha had, Plus everything that Peter had, Plus everything that Paul had, Plus everything that Jesus Christ operated in when He was here on Earth; Father add everything together and then double it.
He told me: Son, you are asking for trouble. I said that I like that kind of trouble.
He said that they won’t let you rest and I said I don’t mind. Maybe I should have been wiser.
Now, I’m eighty (80) years Old and they are not allowing me to rest. They are sending People to me from all over the Place.
But it is better: They don’t let me rest, than you are Reductant. Nobody cares; when you travel, Nobody knows!
In your Church, they need to know when you travel that you are not in, that there is a Vacuum, that the Fire is not as Bright as it should be.
Don’t come here to joke this Year (2022). And don’t tell me when you come here Next Year (2023) if you don’t fill this Place that you Mobilised.
You want to Mobilise? – By Next Year (2023), at least full this Place.
And you can do it if you begin to “Shine Forth” from now!
If you begin to “Shine Forth”; each of you by Next Year (2023) will have won at least a one hundred (100) People on to the Lord. And you will come with your children. This Place will be Full.
Stand on your feet – You are going to lift your Voice to the Most High God and say: Father, I am not letting You go tonight or as you read now on the Label of DMC unless you empower me!
Go ahead and talk to the Almighty God!
Thank you so much for staying all through to read.

COMPILATIONS BY:
MOSES DURODOLA, TITILAYOMI AJAYI AND TOPE BABALOLA
RCCG ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL YOUNG ADULTS AND YOUTH CONVENTION 2022

DATE: 5TH OCTOBER, 2022
BIBLE TEXT: ISAIAH 60:1-2
Wherever you are hearing the sound of my voice tonight, may I ask you to raise one hand towards Heaven as a Point of contact with the Holy Spirit:
Omnipotent Power of Mercy and Grace, bless Your People tonight.
Let the entrance of Your Word bring Light; let it bring Healing, let it bring Hope.
Glorify Your Name! In Jesus’ Name – Amen.
Let’s put our hands together to the King of all Kings, the Lord of lords, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End.
SONG:
Imole de ooo (Light Come ooo) Okunkun parada (Darkness disappear); Imole de ooo (Light Come ooo), Okunkun parada (Darkness disappear)
Imole de ooo (Light Come ooo) Okunkun parada (Darkness disappear); Imole de ooo (Light Come ooo), Okunkun parada (Darkness disappear).
OPENING PRAYER
Tonight, I Pray that the Light of God will Shine upon you – Amen.
Not only will the Light of the Lord Shine upon you, you’ll be the Light – Amen!
You will Shine to your world; your world will hear from you, you will be a Blessing to your Generation and beyond your Generation – Amen!
You have stepped into this Camp Ground, you will not leave empty-handed – Amen.
You will go with an Unusual and Uncommon Testimony, in the Name of Jesus!
Shout “AMEN” with Power – AMEN!!!
Everything in the Bible has a reason: There is a reason why they clap in the Bible (but Please don’t clap yet).
I. They clap in the Bible to announce Victory over Satan;
II. They also clap in the Bible to announce war against the Kingdom of Darkness;
III. And finally, they clap in the Bible to Welcome the King of all Kings and the Lord of lords!
Let everybody in the house ROAR with their clap. Come on, give God the Glory!
I want to take this time, first of all, to say it is a great joy and Privilege to be here again tonight. And I trust I will be a blessing to you, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
Giving Glory and Honour to our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ – Who saves us, heals us, delivers us and washes us with His Precious Blood.
I cannot forget the day when I was twenty (20) years old; when reading a Tract in a Drunken State, I received Him as my Lord and Saviour
From that day, I changed my name from Ahmed to Matthew. And my sister Hadijat changed to Rachel. And my brother Mudashiru changed to Caleb. And my mother, Aisha also changed to Jesus.
And I believe your family will know the Lord! The Light will shine in your household – Amen.
… We must always give honour to whom honour is due.
We want to take this time to celebrate and honour and appreciate our father and our Mother-In-Israel – Those who are our Parents in the things of the Spirit.
For all of us who are here today, you are standing on the shoulder of some people – A father and mother who believed so much in this Redemption City.
And they came when it was still a bush, and they lived alone in this Place. And today, it is a City. And their voices have roared from this Place and have entered the four corners of the Earth.
Help me to celebrate Baba and Mama Adeboye in a big way tonight.
Come on somebody appreciate them! Thank God for them, give God the Praise for them. Bless the Lord for them – Amen!
I want to say that I didn’t know I was going to speak this Year. Really I didn’t even want to come (let me apologise for saying that).
But Pastor Belemina Obunge broke the gate of my house and forced me to come and said, “You have to come, if you want me to really want me to continue to hold you as one of my Mentors – You have to come!”
… Now, I want you to know, eventually, the Lord spoke to me.
Please help me to celebrate Pastor Belemina Obunge tonight.
God says in Deuteronomy 28:5-12, I will bless the works of your hands, your basket and your Storehouse.
If you Present a hand, God will give the blessing that is a handful; if you Present a basket, God will bless your basket. But if you Present a Storehouse, God will bless your Storehouse.
Isaiah 60:1-2:
1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
I came all the way from London in England to announce to somebody – It is your Time to Shine – Amen!
God wants you to be a Carrier of Glory, He wants you to be a Carrier and Light.
There is Darkness in our World today, there’s Darkness in our Nation (Nigeria); there is Darkness in all the Places. And the Darkness is ever increasing and People seem to Prefer the Darkness.
Darkness is the absence of Light; Darkness is the Symbol of Doom and Gloom. Darkness is obscurity. When the enemy hides you, you are in Darkness.
… But you are coming out – Amen!
I hope I’m Preaching to the right people tonight? If you hear me, say Amen – AMEN!!!!
Darkness is concealment, Darkness is the lack of Knowledge, Darkness is the lack of Sight, Darkness is a realm which has a King and its own Government – The devil himself. It is the Kingdom of evil.
The Kingdom of Darkness has an attitude, the Kingdom of Darkness is evil, the Kingdom of Darkness is a realm that is demonic.
We were born into that realm; But one day, Jesus came to bring us out of Darkness into His Marvelous Light.
That is why I came all the way to let you know – Whether the devil likes it or not, it is your time to Shine! You will Shine – Amen!
Darkness is the abode of Spiritual Blindness; God will open your eyes – Amen!
Darkness is the one the world prefers, but you will walk in the Light – Amen.
Darkness is the Place that holds People in Limitation, but you are coming into the Limelight – Amen.
Darkness is the Place of Gloom and Calamity, but tonight, I came with a Mandate for your release; for you to walk in the Light of God, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Darkness is a Place of Spiritual Ignorance and Misalignment, but today, God will line up your life for Favour and Testimony – Amen.
Darkness is a Place for the Unbelieving, but I came to let you know that when Jesus showed up, He came that we may have Light – Amen!
The Bible says in John 1:1-5 – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was Life; and the Life was the Light of men. And the Light shineth in Darkness; and the Darkness comprehended it not.
I declare into Somebody’s Life – This Year’s (2022) Youth Conference, your Light is so about to Shine – Amen.
Nigeria will not be able to stop you – Amen!
Darkness will not be able to stop you – Amen!
The world will not be able to stop you – Amen!
… If you believe it, shout Amen – AMEN!!!
When Light comes, Darkness disperses.
You see, the difference between Light and Darkness is that: Scientifically, Darkness has no substance. Darkness is nothing! But Light is a gathering of Electrons and Power and Energy. That is why we are called to something, not Nothing.
You have been called to a Place where the Glory of the Lord is. Light replaces emptiness.
Every Empty areas of your Life: Empty joy, Empty Peace, Empty Glory, Light will Shine in your Life!
You are coming out of Darkness – Amen!
LIGHT ATTRACTS ATTENTION.
Here in Africa when we turn on the Light, and the first rain, the second rain falls, all the insects come out of the Earth, they come after the Light.
… They don’t come out for Darkness, they come for Light.!
So, Favour is looking for you. Blessing is looking for you. Glory is looking for you – Amen!
And I declare, your Light will soon Shine; you will begin to attract Testimonies; you will begin to attract Glory – Amen!
LIGHT GUIDES A PERSON’S STEPS:
“Your Light, your word is a Lamp and a Light unto my feet” – Psalms 119:105
In the coming years, when the world is in Darkness, the Light of the Lord will guide your Life – Amen.
When others are making mistakes, you will have a Testimony – Amen!
I came to let somebody know, it is your time to Shine!
LIGHT EXPOSES REALITY.
From today, every darkness around you, Light will expose them – Amen.
LIGHT DISCOVERS DANGER.
It is much easier to travel during the daytime because there’s Light. During the Night time, you don’t see everywhere.
LIGHT EXPOSES DANGER.
Every danger the enemy is Planning for your Life, at the end of this year (The last three(3) Months): may the Light of the Lord Shine upon your Life.
Light exposes the enemy, exposes the Darkness.
LIGHT DETERMINES DIRECTION.
The Path of “The Just” man shines to a brighter day -. Proverbs 4:18
When Light shines in your way and you begin to take steps, you don’t need a godfather, you don’t need a godmother. You just need the Light of God.
And every step you take will bring you into your Testimony, bring you into your Glory – Amen!
There is a Young man or Young woman tonight, the next step you will take will result in Testimony – Amen.
I came to let you know the Bible says: “Arise, Shine, for your Light will come.”
The Word “Light” there and the “Glory” of the Lord is risen upon you.
There are three (3) Hebrew Words – Glory there refer to: Kahil, Kabod and Shekina.
Shekina is the Glory that rested upon the Temple.
Kahil and Kabod are the Symbols at the Presence of God.
When a Man carries Kahil, when a Woman carries Kahil, They walk in the Dignity of Jesus. They walk in the Power of God.
Kabul means fame, Kahil means Praise, Kahil means honour, Kahil means Blessings.
I declare upon this Altar tonight, for somebody who is hearing me or reading on the Label of DMC – The fame of God is coming to your house – Aman
Praise, Honour and Blessing are also coming to your house – Amen!
You were created for fame and not for Shame.
Fame is healthy, when it is rooted in unselfish ambition.
That is the reason why we follow those People who have a fallen nature!
Somebody is here today, young: you have a Music Anointing; you have an Artistic Gifting; you have an Ability to Write; you have an Ability to do business and they have not heard of you – By the Mantle of Jesus on my Life today, I Prophesy your Rising – Amen.
Kahil – Arise and Shine for your Light is come! Because the Shine is not even the emphasis in that Passage. It is what causes the Shine.
Arise and Shine, why?
Because your Light is come. Why? Because your Glory – The Kahil of the Lord has come upon you.
I want to announce to a Young man here or reading now on the Label of DMC that your Struggle is over – Amen.
Kahil is the Restoration of God’s Praise and God’s Honour in your Life.
Glory is when your Life is crowned with Honour.
Psalms 8:5 “For you have made Him a little lower than Elohim and you have crowned Him with Glory and Honour.
Psalm 8:5 is not talking about God, it’s talking about you.
Some Translation says “Angel” it is Elohim, It’s a Trinity God, You’re higher than Angels.
Hebrews 1:14 says that Angels are made to serve you.
So if you are such, A little lower than your Daddy, The Heavenly Father, then how come you are having to pick bits and pieces in a Country called Nigeria?
… Sometimes you will do that if you don’t know who you are!
So, I was sent to You, to Prophesy into your Life: You will rise to a New Height! You will reach your Zenith! You will move to Significance! You will be a Pacesetter! You will Glow! You will Dazzle! You will Sparkle!
Shout Amen three (3) times: Amen! Amen!! Amen!!!
Some of you, the enemy thought he has been hiding you, he didn’t know it is because your time has not come.
But when your time comes, the devil cannot stop you! He cannot stand you and there’s nothing he can do again about you.
*So tonight, I came to announce to somebody: you will manifest the Glory! Rags cannot hide your Glory, lack of Education cannot hide your Glory, who likes you and does not like you cannot hide your Glory.
Ota Ile (Enemy at Home), ota ode (Enemy Outside), cannot hide your Glory! Abateni je (Destroyer), cannot hide your Glory. Alll those “Flying Eagles” of the Night cannot stop your Glory.
For the Bible says, “The People that dwell in Darkness have seen a Great Light.”
You have been dwelling in Darkness, they have been hiding you in Ajagbandi, Okokomaiko, Eziama Obiato, Labo Ibadan, Opo oye osa, Bere, Ologun Eru; but when your Season comes, God brings you out of Darkness!
“The People that dwell in darkness have seen a great Kahil.”
For a long time, the enemy tried to hide you, tried to keep you.
The Mother of Jesus, the day He was born, could only wrap the Baby – The King of all kings in a ‘Swaddling Clothe”.
You know what a “Swaddling Clothe” is? – When you cannot buy the right blanket for a new born baby, you go and buy the cheapest of the cheapest (“teru” – A Low Quality Cloth) to wrap the Baby.
But despite the fact that the Baby was wrapped in “teru” (Low Quality Cloth); a star shines on top of Him.
The Light of the Baby Jesus so shone, the kings left the Mesopotamian Valley of Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Seria, to begin to travel to follow His Light.
Unknown to them, the Baby they are looking for is in a Manger but you cannot hide it. He is in a “Swaddling Clothe”, but you cannot hide it.
He was carried how? He was carried by a Teenage Mother. Mary was not more than sixteen (16) No!
I came to let a Young man of woman know tonight: God has been hiding you for your Season. And I came to announce: Your time has come!
He (Baby Jesus) so shone, those around Him missed Who He was. They didn’t know Who He was.
I. The owner of the Inn, “carry your Belle go ooo, I no want trouble!”
II. Herod, who is the Baby that was born? He said, “I want to kill Him.” He didn’t know Who He was.
III. The Shepherds, “See me see trouble ooo! Na animals we dey take care of here. Which one be this wey them come born Baby here? We no know how to do Midwife ooo.”
They did not know that the One Who was born in a Manger is the King of Glory!
Someone else said, “for we have seen He Star.” You will Shine!
What God is set to do in your Life – The devil can’t stop it, he can’t stand it; there is nothing he can do about it.
Isaiah 60:3 says, And the Gentiles shall come to thy Light, and Kings to the brightness of thy rising.
Tonight, as I begin to come to the end up this Message; I Prophesy into Somebody’s life; I declear from today, Favour will come from all corners of the world to you – Amen.
People will rise to help you! Blessings would abound all around you. The day of your Smallness is over. You will experience Divine Abundance – Amen.
Isaiah 60:5 says, Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the Abundance of the sea (of China, America, Europe, Asia, of the Islands of the Sea) shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.
Your Time has come – Amen!
What God is set to do for your Life, the devil can’t stop it, he can’t Stand it. There is nothing he can do about it – Amen.
I came tonight to let somebody know: Light will shine in your Life; Glory will shine in your Life; unsolicited favour will follow you!
Isaiah 60:9 says, Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the LORD thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath Glorified thee.
You will Shine!
Nigeria is at a crossroad, where so many things are not working. But your root is not in Nigeria; it is in the Kahil of God.
So, whether things work where you are or not, you have put your root in Jehovah. You didn’t get me!
In 2007 suddenly, there was Light out in New York. New York ooo (not Lagos). The whole of the Big Apple – New York was in darkness. But they noticed that the woman who is the Statue of Liberty had Light!
They began to wonder: How can the whole City be in darkness, and one Statue has Light?
Only to find, there is darkness in New York; the Statue of Liberty was not connected to New York Power. It connected to Kineticans: they brought Power from another State; to put in the Statue of Liberty.
Nigeria is not the Point of your connection – You are connected to the Kingdom of God – Amen!
So I came to tell somebody tonight: this Nation (Nigeria) will not be able to stop you. Those who like you or don’t like you, will not be able to stop you. The devil will not be able to stop you. You will Shine!
I Prophesy to somebody here tonight, Isaiah 60:10 and 12: Helpers – People you don’t know; they will rise and help you – Amen.
“And the sons of Strangers shall build up thy walls, and their Kings shall Minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favour have I had Mercy on thee. For the Nation and Kingdom that will not serve thee shall Perish; yea, those Nations shall be utterly wasted.”
The Kahil (the Light) of God can only be switched off by you and the Lord. Power Holding cannot switch it off, who doesn’t like you cannot switch it off. Satan cannot switch it off!
What God is set to do in your Life, the devil can’t stop it, he can’t Stand it, there is nothing he can do about it. If you believe it say – Yes!!!!
When you walk in the Kahil of God, there will be a Season when Blessing is automatically Provoked. The Blessing will just be flowing, nothing can stop it.
“The Glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fig tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the Place of my Sanctuary; and I will make the Place of my feet Glorious” – Isaiah 60:13
Shout a big Amen – AMEN!
Isaiah 60:11 says, Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.
They will Pursue you, they will not be able to catch you. Every Dream you carry will become a reality. You will Shine!
I Prophesy Isaiah 60:14 into your Life: You will walk in Honour. Begging has left your Life – Amen!
“The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The City of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.”
When you carry Kahil, when you enter any Place, People will be identifying with your Success: “I know him, he is my friend from before-before!’ They will want to connect with you.
From tonight, they have called you forsaken before, rejected before: “But who no know you go know you; who no see you go see you; who no hear you go hear you – Amen.
“Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through thee, I will make thee an Eternal Excellency, a Joy of many Generations” – Isaiah 60:15
There are some of you hearing me now or reading on the Label of DMC, after this Convention (RCCG Youth Convention, 2022), your Promotion, your Lifting, your Testimony are all around the corner- Amen!
Isaiah 60:17 says, For brass I will bring Gold, and for iron I will bring Silver, and for wood brass, and for Stones iron: I will also make thy officers Peace, and thine exactors Righteousness.
In a Nation of kidnappers, they will not see you! In a Nation of Terrorists, they will not hear you, – Amen!
I Close, by announcing to about three hundred (300) Young men and women: you carry the Grace of God to Shine around the world. So I Declare: Nothing will stop you!
Give God the biggest Glory tonight – Hallelujah!
Everyone who has their own Business, I Prophesy into your Life: what you carry will Shine! God will make room for you! Your Destiny and Testimonies will manifest. Shout Amen with Power – AMEN!
I came to let somebody know – Whoever Picked this Year’s Theme (SHINE FORTH): they heard from the Lord.
… Because I have News for you: Your Time has come – Amen!
I like you to say: “My Time has come!”
I release Glory into the house right now; I release the Glory of the Lord upon the house right now. I release the Glory upon the People.
I release the Glory upon your Life, upon your Calling, upon your Family, upon your Destiny, upon your Purpose. You will not walk in Darkness, you will not walk in the flesh.
Glory will be on your Life; Glory will be on your Ministry. Testimony will follow you. Everywhere you enter Glory will move with you.
Those of you who are in Ministry – That is Youth Pastors or in various Cadres: from today you will be a Carrier of Glory.
Shout Amen with Power – AMEN!!!
Remain Standing, I am about to Close!
“And the Light shine in Darkness and the Darkness could not comprehend it.”
If you are in this Place, and you don’t know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, you are still walking and living in Darkness. But when you open your heart to Jesus, Light shines in your way.
At this Point I am going to make a Call to those who need to give their lives to Jesus Christ. When I tell you to come forward, you must be ready.
The Second People I want to Pray for tonight are some Young men and women who are here;
I was talking to our Mummies and Daddies this morning. To our Leaders who are Regional Pastors and Intercontinental Pastors. And I said, “we are missing a Generation of Ministers.”
I entered the Ministry when I was twenty two (22)! I went to Bible College at twenty two (22), Graduated at twenty four (24). Must of our Pastors today are Forty (40) and above!
And some of you who are here tonight, you have a Calling. But I don’t just want you to respond to a Call; I want you to respond to a Call with Glory, with Fire, with Power, with Anointing.
But before I Pray for you, I’ll like to tell a little Story: I used to be Part of the Foursquare Church. And the Foursquare in the United Kingdom (UK) were to host some Foursquare Members from America at a Dinner and they said I should be there as one of the Pastors.
When we got to the Dinner, as we sat around the table; Sixty six (66) of them came from America. And you know Americans, they like to tour! So, they were touring Europe, they got to England, and they invited us to this Massive 5-Star Hotel – Free food. Ha! “Charlie, I go oooo”.
Five (5) Course Meal men, thirty six (36) years ago! “That time no shi-shi for Pocket! So I come sit down. But as I dey look those wey dey there – All their faces;
Pastor Belemina, there was one woman – I could not look at her! Ha! I said, “who is she that I cannot look at her?” Every time I was just looking at everyone at the table; when I came to her, there was something that made me not to be able to look at her.
I said, “what is it about this woman? She did not wear unusual jewelries like Americans would do. Because when Americans want to dress, they wear the whole Bank on their neck. They wear the Bank of America – it would be around their necks.
But this woman, just simple silk white. But everytime I tried to look at her, I could not:
There was a Glory, there was a Presence, there was an Anointing, there was a Power!
I was asking in my heart, “who is this woman?” The man who led the Tour (Probably heard my heart). He came to me and said “Pastor, I like to introduce to you Doctor Thompson (I forgot her first name now).
He said herself and her husband, used to be Missionaries to Papua New Guinea – that is near Australia. He said, that woman you are looking at has raised four (4) People from the dead. I said “abajo” (No wonder)!
… When you carry enough Glory to raise four (4) People from the dead; “who go look you anyhow?”
There are some Young men and Young women here today, you are going to Change Nigeria – Amen.
You will Change your world – Amen!
When I call you to respond to Ministry tonight, I don’t want you to go and join the Latest Generation of Young Preachers in town. Once they have one thousand (1,000), two thousand (2,000) crowd; you can’t even talk to them. No father is a father; they now have a crowd!
And they don’t realise: crowd is not Proof of Glory. You can do some things to get the crowd; “but do you carry the Cloud?”
There is a Generation out there – Because they drive and ask four (4) Policemen to follow them; they think that is the Proof of Grace.
Because of them I am Principled: I travel alone. Because the GRACE is not in the Title. I am still Pastor Matthew. After forty eight (48) years in Ministry, I have no Title.
… Because He said, I will make your ‘name’ Great – not your Title.
ALTAR AND MINISTERIAL CALLS:
I am going to make two (2) Calls tonight, and I will handover the Microphone.
If you are in this Service tonight, and you have no Assurance that if you die today you will cross into Eternity; you have no Assurance that if you die today you are going to Heaven.
I want you to know, “No Jesus, no Life.” “No Jesus, no Hope.” “No Jesus, no Meaning to Life.” “No Jesus, no Direction.”
When you receive Christ, it is like stepping out of black and white into colour. Your sins are forgiven, your Future is Guaranteed.
All those who would love to give their lives to Jesus Christ tonight, wherever you are hearing the Sound of my Voice, do so now!
Don’t assume that because you are Good in the Youth Department, you are on your way to Heaven. You need to come out tonight. Come!
If you are in this Service, you were once Born Again, but you just turned your back. Or you are not serious with your Faith and you want to rededicate your Life to Jesus – Please, do so now!
“No Jesus, no Light; with Jesus no Darkness. No Jesus, no Future, no Testimony, no Direction!’
I am going to Pray for your Salvation. You are going to say these Prayers after me:
“Lord Jesus, I am sorry for my sin, I ask You to forgive me now. Jesus Son of God, have Mercy on me. Come into my heart, come and live in my heart. Help me to live my Life for You. I receive You as my Lord and Master. In Jesus’ Name!”
PRAYER FOR SALVATION
Father, I Pray for these men and women, that they will be true to their Decisions tonight.
Let them truly Surrender to Your Purpose and Surrender to Your Counsel. In Jesus’ Name!
… Shout Amen with power – Amen!
This Next Call – Unless you hace been hearing it in your Spirit; do not come to the front.
Nigeria needs you to Preach the Gospel. Africa needs you to Preach the Gospel. The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) needs you, as a Young man and woman.
I know you are a Business man, a Business Woman – That’s okay. Some of us do half Business, half Ministry. The most major is that you serve the Lord.
I want to see a Generation of Young men and women out of this Year’s Conference, who will Probably go to their Regional Pastor, their Provincial Pastor, their Zonal Pastor, their Area Pastor, their Parish Pastor; And say, “Sir, I Dedicate myself at this Year’s Conference,I want to go into Ministry.”
A man went out as a Missionary to this Native Americans who live on an Island that don’t want to see anyone. He had just finished University, and he said he is going as a Missionary (Jim Elliot). When he told his friends, they laughed at him!
And he said, “A man is not a fool who gives up what he cannot keep; to gain what he must not lose.”
Tonight, God wants your Glory to be carried around the world. For you to enter that Community – All those Area Boys you have been condemning; for them to hit you they cannot.
They will asked “what are you carrying inside of you?” Then you can tell them, “Who I carry inside of me is more than incision; He is very Powerful.”
You heard the Lord before you came to this Meeting; and then heard Him again that it is time to serve Him with your Life. If you are such a man or woman, come to the front. I’ll like to Pray with you. Come!
You are ready for God to use you: Part Time, Full Time, any time. You want to be a Carrier of His Light to the world. Please come now!
Raise your hands wherever you are right now, say – Father use me; let my hands heal the sick, let my voice Preach your Words, let my mouth Testify, let my feet go for you. Let my Life be dedicated to You. Make me a Blessing to my Generation.
I would go anywhere You send me, I would be what You want me to be, I would say what You want me to say. Use me Lord, make me a Blessing.
Today, I cry to You; use me Father! Make me reach my Generation, in the Name the Name of Jesus!
I dedicate myself, I dedicate my Life; and with Your help, I will not disappoint You, I will not disappoint Your Kingdom. I will be a Blessing to my Generation, in the Name of Jesus!
… The Next thing I want you to do, I want you to put your two hands on your head.
CLOSING DECREES:
Those hands are going to become hands that carry Anointing; hands that carry Glory; hands that carry Power; hands that carry the Oil; hands that carry Kahil.
You will be a Light Bearer, you will Shine in Darkness, you will shake your Generation; you will shake your world, you will bless your world.
Out of this crowd tonight, that have come forward in Dedication; World Evanglists would rise, World Preachers would rise.
Great Pastors would rise, Great Apostles would rise, Great Prophets would rise. Men and Women on Fire for God would rise. Ministers and Business Men would rise!
Receive the Power tonight!
After today: The door of Europe will open for you, the door of Asia will open for you, the door of Africa will open for you, the door of America will open for you. Islands of the Sea will open for you. You will bless your Generation!
From this Choir, this crowd, these Ministers in Music; the Songs that will touch the world would come forth. Anointing that will shake Systems would come forth. You will be a Carrier of Glory!
After tonight, everything that has held you down must begin to let you go. Poverty must let you go; lack must let you go.
The devils of your father’s house must let you go. The battles from your mother’s house must let you go. Where they called you Nothing, you will go and Shine! You will shake your World.
There are some of you who are here tonight, after tonight, I command your eyes to become Prophetic Eyes. I command your ears to become Prophetic Ears!
From this day, Oil will flow from your hands. You will heal the Sick; you will bind it shall be bound. You will loose it shall be losed. You will declear it will come to pass!
From this crowd today, the 5th of October 2022 (Note today now): from today, the gear has shifted in your Life! Nothing can stop you!
Look at me: Education will not stop you, People you don’t know will not stop you, People you know will not stop you.
I release Glory on your Life. The God Who has been with me these Forty eight (48) years of Ministry; by the Oil He has Placed on my Life, I take of it and Place on your Life today.
From today your Ministry will heal the Sick; you will do the Miraculous. Wonders would follow you, Signs would follow, Miracles would follow you, Testimonies would follow you. You would Shine!
So shall it be!
I want you to begin to give God the Glory like it’s already done!

RCCG ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL YOUNG ADULTS AND YOUTH CONVENTION 2022
THEME: SHINE FORTH
MINISTERING DAY 3 (MORNING): APOSTLE JOSHUA SELMAN NIMMAK – FOUNDER AND SENIOR PASTOR OF ETERNITY NETWORK INTERNATIONAL, KADUNA.
DATE: 5TH OCTOBER, 2022
BIBLE TEXT: DEUTERONOMY 30:19
Hallelujah!
SONG:
Hallelujah, You have have won the Victory, Hallelujah, You have won it all for me.
Hallelujah, You have have won the Victory, Hallelujah, You have won it all for me.
OPENING PRAYER
Father we Pray in the Name of Jesus, that You will speak to our hearts this morning.
Bless us by the Power of your Word. the Bible declears that: The entrance of thy Words gives Light; and Understanding unto the Simple. (Psalms 119:130)
We open up our hearts to receive; and we Pray that Jesus be Glorified in our midst.
For in the Matchless Name of Jesus we Pray – Amen!
God bless you! And Good Morning.
…. Please, be seated!
Again, my gratitude to the Leadership and the Organizers of the International Youth Conference.
This will be my final Session with you, and I want to Charge you on something that I believe is very, very Powerful and Prophetic.
Yesterday, we began to discuss a few things, and I mentioned something from Isaiah 60:1. The Bible says: Arise, Shine; for thy Light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
And I did tell us that that Statement, “Arise” immediately connotes that there will be responsibility on your part.
I did tell us last night that: when it has to do with the dealings of God with man in this Kingdom, it is not entirely up to God, and it is not entirely up to man. That it will always take a participation. Are we together?
God who is Almighty and can do without man has chosen by His Wisdom to always demand cooperation from man for anything to be made manifest in his life.
So, if you leave it all up to God and you do not know and understand the role that you have to play in Shining Forth and in actualizing Destiny, you may end up being disappointed and your expectations will end up being aborted. Hallelujah!
It is important that we understand this. And yesterday again we looked at Three (3) Levels of Knowledge we must contend for:
The first is that You must Know God;
The Second is that you must Know Yourself, in light of the God that you now know;
The third is that you must know your Place in God’s Prophetic Agenda (God’s Program) and in Destiny.
This morning, still charging our hearts, as to what it takes to arise and to Shine Forth, I want us to consider a few Thoughts and then we Pray.
SONG:
This is Your House, your Home; Lord, we welcome You, Lord, we welcome You. This is Your House, your Home; We welcome You today!
Deuteronomy 30:19:
I call Heaven and Earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
This is the Bible placing before the people of God the option of a Life of Glory and Excellence, or a Life of shame, reproach, retrogression, pain and regret.
… Very Powerful instructive Scripture!
This is the Bible placing before the people of God the option of a Life of Glory and Excellence; a Life of Impact and Dignity; or a Life of shame and reproach. Retrogression, pain and regret.
And it says: I can only suggest to you, I can only give you counsel but never to force you.
It says, here is my option for you, and my desire for you, “Choose Life that you and your Seed may live.” But peradventure you decide to choose death, I still leave it unto you.
Listen: in Life, Destiny is defined by the kind and the quality of decisions that we make.
If you are writing, please write it down: Destiny – The glory, the beauty, the colour of an Impactful life, is determined not just by the Will of God alone; not just by the Love of God alone; not just by the Power of God alone.
As powerful as God is, there are still people going to Hell today. As powerful as God is, there are still people making a mess of their lives and Destinies. As powerful as God is, there are Nations called First World and Third World Nations.
The Bible says, I set before you Life and death; I set before you blessing and cursing. Hallelujah!
So, write this down please – “Decisions decide Destiny!”
Whether it is going to be a Colourful Destiny, with Dignity and Glory and Impact; it is going to be a Destiny full of shame and pain and regret.
It is all up to you in Partnership with the God of Heaven. Or all up to you in Partnership with the devil.
In any case, you have a role to play in deciding the Outcome of a Life that Shines Forth or a Life that remains in gloominess and darkness.
If you are with me say Amen – Amen!
Now, most people do not realised that they have an active role to play in the making of their lives and their Destinies and they fold their arms and leave it all up to God.
And they say, God is Mighty: I know that I have a Dream to be a great Preacher, I have a Dream to be a great Business Magnet. My Life must count! And then, they do not do anything about it.
Write this down please – “Every Decision you take and you make in Life has consequences.”
Write this down also: “The consequences have been Pre-programmed.”
That means, the moment you make the Decision, you also activate the consequences connected to that Decision.
Now, we don’t choose consequences, we only make the Decisions that choose the consequences – Very important for you to understand!
Look up please! How many of you know that if I keep walking and I get to the end of this stage and I still continue walking, Chances are excellent that except God shows mercy I may fall? Is that true?
The consequence of falling is already Programmed in that Decision.
So, it is not when I violate or make a wrong Decision that the consequence suddenly emerges; it has always been there! The Potential for falling has been there.
The reason why I have not fallen is because I did not make the Decision that honours that consequence. Are we together now?
Most people hate the consequences that they see around their lives.
I hope you know that Poverty is a consequence? Mediocrity is a consequence. Absence of a Healthy Relationship with God is a consequence. Being at the Lower Levels of Life is a consequence. A Life that does not carry beauty and colour is a consequence.
Similary, a Life of exploits and greatness is a consequence. A Life of prosperity, dignity and honour is a consequence (An anointed is a consequence). A Life of grace and impact is a consequence.
There is no ‘Luck’ in the equation. Take the idea of Luck out of of the way! There is Grace, there is Mercy but it is not called ‘Luck.’ Is someone learning?
That means, the next ten (10) years of your Life, as you are watching me right now or reading on the Label of DMC, is not going to be determined just by the Power of God alone; the next ten (10) years of your Life is not going to be determined by the Love of God in your Life alone.
Infact, the next ten (10) years of your Life would not even be determined by Time! “One day e go better” – you hear people say. No!
Time does not Change things. Time only reveal the consequences of the Decisions you have taken. Is someone learning?
Seeing then that Decisions decide Destiny; it matters that we have an Understanding of what it takes and the kinds of quality Decisions that we need to make, if we really desire to Shine Forth in truth.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news! And I pray it does not to pass! But it is unfortunate, I must tell you, that many people have sat down where you are sitting right now. And many people also attended many Youth Conferences just like you.
I. A few people took advantage of what they were taught, and their lives are speaking right now.
II. A few people shouted “Amen!” Shouted Hallelujah! Even fell down under the Anointing and got up, only to recycle the same.seasons in their lives.
But for you, it is my Prayer that for the sake of yourself and your children (born or unborn) and the ones who look up to you; may today be that day you willl settle down to make Quality Decisions over your Life – Amen.
I want to ask you a question (and I want you to be very honest): How many of you know people around your Life – Maybe around the area where you live, who you used to know many years ago, who you were at the same Level with; maybe Educationally speaking and otherwise; And now you are still the same people – Ten (10), Twenty (20) later. And the only thing that has happened in their lives is that they have grown older! But the same thing.
… The same failure, the same foolishness, the same godlessness, the sane rigmarolling around;
And they now see you and say, “Wooow! You have become a big man! I hear you are now in school, or I hear you are now working, or I hear you are now doing this and that.”
They refused to make Decisions with their lives! And you see, Time is a.Gift that does not wait for no one. Whether you make a Decision or not, time continues to move.
John 9:4 says, “I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.”
Lay your hands on your head in one minute and say Father; I obtain Grace to begin to make Quality Decisions over my Life.
Is someone Praying this morning? Hallelujah!
In 1 King 18:19-21, Elijah gathered the Prophets of Baal at the contest in mount Camel,and here is what it says:
Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the Prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the Prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel’s table. So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the Prophets together unto mount Carmel. And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
Elijah said listen, there is no point following left today and right tomorrow. If you believe that Baal is god, follow him. Make the Decision to follow him. But if you believe God is God, follow Him!
“Decisions decide Destiny.” – I learnt this very early in my Life; and I made certain Covenant Commitments as to my Life and my Destiny.
Now, let me tell you the Truth, and let me submit to you (with all Humility): Everybody you see today who is great and doing exploits for the Kingdom – Whether in Ministry, in Business, in Career; none of them stumbled into greatness! Greatness is not a Gift: it is a Reward for making Quality Decisions.
Greatness is not a Gift! An enviable Destiny is not a Gift. What God gives as a Gift is Time!
What God gives as a Gift is the Holy Spirit; what God gives as a Gift is His Word; what God gives as a Gift is Pastors after His Heart – Who can mentor and teach.
… You need to know what is a Gift. And you need to know what is a Reward.
A great Destiny is not a Gift, a colourful Destiny is not a Gift. The Holy Spirit is a Gift; the Word of God is a Gift; a great Man of God to Mentor and build you, is a Gift.
But your Destiny and the outcome of the same, is a product of your decisions.
Now, please pay very close attention: I want to give you Six (6) Decisions that you must make in this Conference.
And I give you a guarantee, by the Integrity of God’s Word; anyone of you that would make these Six (6) Quality Decisions, do not assume that you understand what I am saying.
If you make these quality Decisions, I give you a guarantee as touching the Integrity of God’s Word, you will look back at your Life a few Months, a few years from now and all that you will see is a Life of Dignity, Glory and Colour.
If you are with me say Amen – Amen!
These Decisions have no respect for your background, for your current disposition, for all of the disadvantages in your Life. Even if you are an individual with no level of Grace whatsoever.
These Decisions are the Ladders that scale men into enviable Destinies; making maximum impact foe the Kingdom.
… May that be your Testimony, in the Name of Jesus Christ – Amen!
DECISION NO. 1:
The first Decision you must make in your Life if you want to Shine Forth and you want a Life that brings Glory to God, is that:
YOU MUST MAKE THE DECISION TO MAKE EXCEPTIONAL SPIRITUAL PROGRESS.
The Decision to make Exceptional Spiritual Progress: in the order of Priority, this is one of the greatest Decisions you can make in your Life.
Jeremiah 9:13-16, here’s what it says: And the LORD saith, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein; But have walked after the imagination of their own heart, and after Baalim, which their fathers taught them: Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink. I will scatter them also among the heathen, whom neither they nor their fathers have known: and I will send a sword after them, till I have consumed them.
Why? Because they have refused to pay attention to my ways.
The first Decision – The Decision to make Exceptional Spiritual Progress. Not just Spiritual Progress – Exceptional Spiritual Progress.
In Matthew 22:37, Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God:” not with part of your heart, not with part of your Soul, not with part of your Life. It says you should love the Lord your God’s with all.
There are consequences to making these Investments of knowing God.
Yesterday we considered the Scripture in Daniel 11:32, that the people that do know their God, the Bible leaves them with the Assurance that they shall be Strong, and they shall do exploits.
The Decision to know God is a Noble Decision – You must make up your mind that, “I will make Maximum Spiritual Progress.”
There are a number of Indices in the Bible that Measures a Man’s Spiritual Progress:
I. The first Biblical Index to measure the Strength of your Spiritual Progress, is the Health of your Prayer Life.
The Health of your Prayer Life is a Biblical Measure of your Spiritual Growth.
II. The strength of your Word Study Life.
Jeremiah 15:16 says, Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart:
III. The Strength of your Character: the degree of your conformity to the Image and the Character of the Christ in experience.
… This is a measure of your Spiritual Progress.
To what degree are you conforming to the Image and the Character of Christ in experience?
IV. The Out-Workings of the Grace and the Power of God in and through your Life is the fourth (4th) Index for measuring your Spiritual Growth.
Don’t say you are growing Spiritually; we have to look at these Indices.
If you are making Spiritual Progress, we have to guage your Statement against these Four (4) Indices.
To what degree are the Fruits of the Spirit at work in your Life?
Don’t tell me, “I am Yoruba.” Don’t tell me, “I am Igbo.” Don’t tell me “I am Hausa.” Don’t tell me, “I am this or that.” No!
When the Character of Christ swallows you up, it lifts you beyond the Limitations that come with your Region.
Don’t say, “We are angry people, that’s how we are. We are jealous people.” No! When you make maximum Spiritual Progress, the Life of God is able to swallow up these Limitations.
And then, don’t tell me you have known God, and you are walking with the Word of God, you are walking with the Spirit of God;
And we do not see the manifestation of the Grace and the Power of God in and though your Life. It is impossible! Is someone learning?
The first Decision you must make if you want a Life of Grace, Destiny, Colour and impact; is the Decision to Make Exceptional Spiritual Progress.
Let me Charge you therefore, by the Mercies of God, according to Ephesians 5:14, Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee Light.
There are many of you here and reading now on the Label of DMC, who are lukewarm Spiritually: your Prayer Life is dead, your Word Study Life is dead, your Discipline of conformity, into the Character and the Image of Christ; there is no Passion there.
God is giving a Chance to realise that the Decisions that you are making to ignore God will have a consequence in your Life tomorrow.
DECISION NO. 2:
What is the second Decision to make if you want to Shine Forth, and you want a Life of Glory and Grace?
IT IS THE DECISION TO CONTEND FOR A SUPERIOR BELIEF SYSTEMS.
… In other words, a “Transformed Mind”.
The Decision to contend for a Superior Belief Systems: Second to your knowing God; Second to your Spiritual Progress, is the depth and the degree of your Mental Transformation.
Forget about a Destiny of Beauty and Colour, if your Mindset remains at the same Level.
A Transformed Mind is not just an European Mind; a Transformed Mind is not just a Western Mind; a Transformed Mind is a Mind that has been so Cultured by the Word of God.
Let this mind be in you (the Bible says), which was also in Christ Jesus: Philippians 2:5
Jesus had a Mindset; He had a Philosophy, He had a set of Beliefs that sponsored His excelling when He was on Earth.
The Decision to contend for a Belief Systems – Africa is the way it is, sadly and unfortunately, largely because of our Belief Systems.
The West, in terms of Technological Advancement and Development, is the way it is largely because of a Philosophy and a Belief System they decided to embrace.
Can I tell you? Until your Belief System Changes, your Life will not Change.
Proverbs 23:7, For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.
… He didn’t say “so he will become”: you are already equal to your thought Life.
This is very important! There are many Tongue Talking Believers who have not settled to obtain a Superior Belief System. And sadly, we continue to recycle pain and mediocrity in our lives.
TWO (2) WAYS TO CONTEND FOR TRANSFORMATION.
Let me give you two (2) ways to contend for Transformation:
I. The first Rule of Transformation is that: You must have a Reference that looks like what you want to become.
You cannot Change into Nothing!
The Bible 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 – 2 Corinthians 3:18.
So, that object that you desire to become, whether it is a man, a State, a higher dimension; you must have a Picture of the future that you want to become!Transformation is difficult without a Reference.
“Apostle, I want to become a great Business Man.” Like who?
“I want to become a great Man of God.” Like who?
“I want to know God so much!” Like who?
The Bible says: Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him. Isaiah 51:2.
The Bible is not ashamed to tell us to look unto people: look unto Abraham, look unto Jesus.
Yow want to be Transformed? You must have a Reference.
II. Transformation requires Access to Superior Information.
Information that is Word-Compliant and can transform your Understanding.
This is where the place of Books; this is where the place of Teachings; this is where the place of Useful Resources in helping your Mindset come in to play.
Most of us are lazy! You may have heard me say it – That when you are lazy, both God and the devil cannot use you.
God will not be able to use you; even the devil would not be able to use you – because both of them require a level of Diligence. Even if it is the devil you want to serve you must still be Diligent.
Laziness is one area that: Whether from God’s side or from Satan’s side you are still a Disadvantage to them both. Hallelujah!
Listen: when a young man is sleeping for twelve (12) hours, ten (10) hours every day, not doing anything; you wake up in the morning and stretch yourself as if you are Sixty (60) Seventy (70) years, not doing anything.
And then the next thing is, you pick up your phone, waste away another two (2) or three hours. Let me tell you this: You are Programming pain in the later years of your life.
Lamentations 3:27 says: It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his Youth.
… You must obtain Grace; go for Knowledge!
Somebody Prophesy it, say: I contend for Transformation!
Rather than living a fake Life, wearing what is not your own, eating what is not your Level, snapping behind people’s vehicles and homes and putting it Online;
Rather than living all those kinds of Unreasonable Life; it is better to stay with God and stay with men who have made it and begin to transform your Mind.
Can I tell you? Anywhere your Mind goes to, your body must eventually follow.
I assure you, if your Mind has gone to Canaan: even if your body is in Egypt, your Mind will force your body to follow it to Canaan.
The future that your body cannot enter now, send your Mind there! And your Mind will direct your body like an Usher to enter that reality.
This is a fact: Anything your Mind has caught, your body must express it.
Any dimension your Mind has done to, it is impossible for your body to not follow!
The Decision to contend for Mental Transformation – Go and buy books, go and get materials. Technology and the Internet has made it very easy now.
With the cheapest Data available, you can have access to an array of Resources that can build your Mind. So, you do not have an excuse!
DECISION NO. 3:
You must discover and fulfill your God-Given Assignment.
DECISION NO. 4:
The Decision to be Healthy: to be Physical strong.
It is a sin to mismanage your body. Because the Bible says your body is God’s Property (1 Corinthians 6:19). You may not drink, smoke or sleep around; but you mismanage your body – it is a sin!
… The Decision to be healthy, the Decision to be Physically strong. Are we together?
Usually, at the end of the year I have Retreat. And in my Retreats, I usually gauge myself against some of these Indices that I am mentioning.
And for three (3) years in a row, I noticed that the least Performing area of Life, was the area of my Health and my Physical wellbeing. It wasn’t just because of carelessness.
Let me tell you the truth, one day a father of Faith in this Nation called me after a Conference, and he said, Apostle, let me warm you! He said, “be careful with your Health – Africans kill their Prophets.” And that thing was a Message!
Because somebody sees you. Sometimes as you keep mismanaging your body, most people do not know how to take care of their bodies. When it’s time to Fast, Fast! But when there is time to eat, eat!
I believe in Divine Healing, I believe in the Power of God. But if you find out your Health is deteriorating: do not be afraid and ashamed to go and see a Doctor.
While you are growing in your Understanding of the Zoe Life, don’t die the death fools, because of Pride.
If you are sick and you Pray; you lay your hand and it does not work; go with honour to the hospital and meet a Doctor to treat you.
When you are fine, then you can now have the time to Study more about that Eternal Life, until it becomes an experience.
Please hear me: there are many people who have brought trouble to themselves.
Medical Doctors would tell us that most sicknesses, if dictated early, can be stopped.
There are many unnecessary Prayer Points that have come over our lives and our bodies, purely because of carelessness. Hallelujah!
It is important for you to manage your body: some of you, the greatest enemy of your Life is gluttony.
Even if you are sleeping and they bring food in front of you; Supernaturally, like Word of Knowledge, you will wake up, see it and you must eat before you go back to sleep.
Remember what the sons of the Prophet told Elisha; they said “there is death in the pot” – 2 Kings 4:40.
Death can also be in the pot! Death is not just on the road, with an accident. Even in the pot!
… If you mismanage your eating, there can be death in the pot.
It’s time to be healthy.
There are many you people, under Thirty (30) years; they can walk from here to there! And they were not born like that. You climb a staircase, you are already breathing as if you would die.
My friend, obtain Grace to go to the Gym. Go and work on yourself! In the Name of Jesus, for the sake of those you will be Preaching to; for the sake of the Destinies that are connected to you.
You can’t be a young man of of under Thirty (30) years, you are already breathing. You just danced during Praise and Worship and you have to take two (2) bottles of water to survive the remaining part of the Service. No Sir!
If we have a Vigil and our Elderly ones are falling asleep, that’s fine, we can give it to them. But a young man, you are starting a Vigil from.10pm. One hour into the Vigil, you are already sleeping (even while you are standing)!
It is not just a Spiritual issue; you need to work on your body. Go and read what you learned in Biology and Basic Science: the Six (6) Classes of Food.
Because some of you, with what you are eating, except God shows you Mercy, it is as if you are removing one, one year from your Life because of carelessness. Don’t be offended, I love you!
In Africa we think that the idea of Prosperity is to make sure you eat to a point where it is like a Revenge Mission. Everything you could not eat when you didn’t have money:
You now go to the Restaurant – five (5) wraps of swallow and the soup that five (5) people will use, only you! You sit with the cooler in front of you. Two (2) bottles of Minerals, one (1) whole agric chicken. And when you eat everything you say, “my soul find rest.” No!
Let me give you a very kind advise: Jesus made a Statement, He said, “he that will not work, should not eat.”
That is Medical Advise: If you don’t plan to work, he is saying, don’t eat. Because if you keep eating without working, there is an effect it brings to your body.
It is not just a Religious Statement, it is a Medical Advise: Before you eat find out “what is the work that will justify this food I am going to eat?”
… That means, the less your work, the lighter should be your eating.
It is a Medical Advise! There are people who can eat five (5) agric chickens, and the nature of the work that they do, energy will be burnt into ashes while they work.
You see, our fathers had the Privilege of eating heavy, Because they were largely Farmers. They would go to the farm and farm out that energy. Our mothers would trek to the market.
But our Generation is is an E-generation. Your office is in your room, everything is in your room. As you step out these is a Protocol. Then there is a Plane that picks you. Then you land. And you are still eating like a Farmer!
DECISION NO. 5:
The Decision to be Financially Independent.
He that will not work, should but eat. He that will work small,. should eat small.
DECISION NO. 6:
The Decision to build Quality Destiny Relationship.
Every time Power or Sound goes off (because it happens) we should begin to Pray in the Spirit until it is restored. There should never be time wasted.
So learn it as a Healthy Culture. Practice it when you go back to your Stations.
Let’s rise up on our feet as we wrap up!
Have you learnt something this morning?
Let’s do a quick Recap: Six (6) Decisions you must make if you want to Arise and to Shine Forth;
Decision No. 1: Make Exceptional Spiritual Progress.
Decision No 2: You must contend for Superior Belief Systems.
Decision No. 3: You must Discover and Fulfill your God-given Assignment.
Decision No. 4: The Decision to be Healthy and to be Physically Strong.
Decision No. 5: The Decision to be Financially Independent.
Decision No. 6: The Decision to build Quality Destiny Relationships.
Let me make reference to the first Decision as we wrap up: The Decision to Make Exceptional Spiritual Progress.
It is Primarily why you are here for this Conference; and it is Primarily why you love and seek God. And you continue to press in to the things of God.
Please hear me: I am a Testimony that loving God pays; I am a Testimony that seeking God pays; I am a Testimony that when you give your all to God, indeed He will lift you beyond Imagination.
And I hope that all through this Conference, someone becomes challenged enough to know that if I really want to make meaning out of my Life; if I want to Shine Forth His light; then I must make sure that everything is right with Jesus!
ALTAR CALL:
This Morning, I am not making the usual Altar Call – The Altar Call affects everybody. So, we are not coming out but it is still an Altar Call.
Jus two (2) Prayer Points, for those who know that they have the hand of God upon their lives. Those who know that they have been called to live a Life of Grace, and Dignity; a Life of Grace and Glory.
I want to leave you and your God; I don’t know what Position you will take but I want you to cry to the God of Heaven:
Lord, grant me Grace: my Life must count! I am ready to Shine Forth, even to my world.
Go ahead and pray!
Now please listen: the Last Prayer is for someone who has been discouraged. I know that we live in a time where many people are discouraged:
Financially discouraged; some of you have lost loved ones or some of you, sadly were with loved ones that are not responsible enough.
I want to give you a word of Hope right now before we are done.
Listen to me: you may not have the kind of Leverage you need; but I want you to know, that you can still make it.
SONG:
I will hold on through the Storm I will hold on to Your Word My Life will soon reveal You’re the Lifter of man; Lifter of man!
Will you hold on through the Storm?Wiill hold on to Your Word? Your Life will soon reveal He’s the Lifter of man; Lifter of man!
“Apostle, I do not have parents, I am the one Sponsoring myself. Can I still have a Life of Glory and Grace? I’m the only one who has risen in my family.”
I say this to you as a word of Comfort – There is Hope for a tree even though it be cut short, in the Name of Jesus Christ (Job 14:7).
SONG:
Will you hold on through the Storm?Wiill hold on to Your Word? Your Life will soon reveal He’s the Lifter of man; Lifter of man!
CLOSING PRAYER
In the Name of Jesus, I Stand upon the Grace that is on our father and our mother and I speak to someone’s life:
In the Mighty Name of Jesus, Who is the Son of the Living God, I declear over your Destiny – Arise and Shine!
RCCG Youth and Young Adult, Arise and Shine, in the Name of Jesus Christ!
I declear over you, no weapon fashioned against your Destiny will Prosper!
And every tongue that rises up against you, let it fall in Judgement, in the Name of Jesus Christ!
May the Lord bless you; may the Lord increase you! You will go from Glory to Glory, in the Name of Jesus!
Amen! Amen!! Amen!!!
Thank you very much, and God bless you – Amen!
