And then, you may Please be seated.
God Bless you.
And I want to also decree to everyone of you – This Month will be Glorious for you (Amen).
But I want to appeal to all of us: Please don’t Stop Praying – Particularly concerning all the Prophesies that came this Year (2025).
☆ You know that the Lord asked us to Pray against Fire Outbreaks.
There had been Fire Outbreaks but God intervened.
Things could have been far, far worst!
☆ And He told us to Pray against Flood and Storms.
Please, don’t take these Prophesies lightly – Pray because we are just entering into the Rainy Season!
God will answer our Prayers in Jesus Mighty Name – Amen!
We have been asked to speak on: “The Shadow of the Almighty”.
Psalms 91:1 says: He that dwelleth in the Secret Place of the Most High shall abide under the Shadow of the Almighty.
When you look at that Verse:
- It tells you that there is Someone called “The Most High”.
The Most High means the One who is Higher than the highest.
Ecclesiastes 5:8 tells you that there is Someone who is Higher than the highest.
Isaiah 66:1, God said that the Heaven is my Throne, the Earth is my Footstool.
Which means that no matter how High your Throne may be; as long as it is on Earth, it is still under the Feet of God.
In Daniel 4:32; the Bible tells us that God rules in the affairs of Men.
There are many People who has said that you People say that you are Praying and Fasting; where is the result?
I always Laugh!
You don’t want to imagine what the situation will be like if we have not Prayed?
If sincere Children of God had not been crying to the One who rules in the affairs of Men.
If all of us who are Praying we are to stop Praying for just one week; then you will know what the world will be like.
So, those of you who are Praying; keep Praying and don’t stop.
In Proverbs 21:1; it says that God Controls the Heart of Kings. He moves their Hearts just like Rivers of water.
… There is Someone called the Most High!
Four (4) boys were Playing in a Place where the President lives – And you know that where boys are Playing, they always talk about their fathers.
I think the girls Probably talk about their mothers.
And the first boy said that my father is the Greatest. And they all say why?
He said you should know that my father is the President – Head of State.
The second boy said: No, my Father is Greater than your father. Everybody said how come?
He said because my father is your father’s Physician. If he tells your father to stay in bed for one week, your father must obey.
And the third boy says that my father is Greater than your fathers. They said why?
He said because my father is the “Juju Man” (DMC NOTES: Meaning: “Native Doctor” or “Witch Doctor”) taking care of your fathers. And he can kill all of them if he wants to.
And the fourth boy who happened to be the son of the Messenger said that my father is Greater than all your fathers.
They looked at him – Everybody is talking and you are talking. How can your father who is a Messenger be Greater?
Oh he said: Because not only can my father kill; he can make alive.
They said: But we know your father – Your father is a Messenger.
He said: No, you don’t know my father?
My Father is in Heaven and He has a Name that is above every other names. And at the mention of His Name, all knees must bow.
Let me hear Somebody shout Jesus – JESUS!!!
- Now, this One who is called “The Most High” has a “Secret Place”.
… He that dwelleth in the Secret Place of the Most High.
The Bible tells us in Psalm 27:5 – He said that the Almighty God has a Secret Place where He hides His People in the time of Trouble.
He will hide me in His Pavilion in the time of Trouble, in the Secret Place of His Tabernacles.
And this Secret Place is not just somewhere in the Vestry of the Church and it is not in a Particular Location in the world.
Otherwise, if Trouble comes and you are not nearby to that Secret Place; then the trouble will grab you.
But the Bible says in Proverbs 18:10 – It says that the Name of the Lord is a Strong Tower, the Righteous runs into it and he is safe.
And you know that Person – His Name is Jesus!
He is the One you can call upon on the Battlefield.
When you look Right and Left and it seems that you are Surrounded by the Enemies and there is no way of Escape; then you call on the Name of Jesus.
And all of a sudden, you will be saved.
Several Years ago when they have just constructed the Highway from Ore (DMC NOTES: A Town in Ondo State Nigeria) to Benin (DMC NOTES: Capital City of Edo State Nigeria).
The road was so wonderful and smooth and all the Drivers were going at very Unlimited Speed because there wasn’t that kind of road in Nigeria at that time.
And in those days, they have this car they called Station Wagon that was used as a means of Transportation.
And one of my daughters was going from Lagos to Port Harcourt – She was sitting at the back seat of the Station Wagon.
You remembered Station Wagon? Doors in front, doors in the Middle and then two seats at the back.
My daughter was sitting at the back and reading her little Pocket Bible and the car was going at a very top Speed.
And all of a sudden, the tyre bursted and the car began to summersault.
But as soon as the girl heard the sound: “Boom”; she shouted Jesus!
And the middle door opened, a huge “Unnatural Hand” reached back to the back seat, grabbed my daughter, Pull her out and sat her by the roadside.
As she sat there watching the car summersaulting repeatedly, until it landed on its back.
Every other Vehicle coming, when they saw what happened; they all Parked and they saw every other occupants of the car dead.
Then they saw this Young girl sitting by the roadside and they said: Hello, what are you doing here?
She said that I came out of that car and they said that who are you deceiving?
She said that my Bible is in the car – Go and check it.
What is your name? She gave then the name. And they got to the back seat and the Bible was there.
There is a Hand that can grab you from the jaws of Death – And that Name is the Name of Jesus!
Do I hear Somebody shout Jesus? JESUS!!!
- He that dwelleth in the Secret Place of the Most High shall abide under the Shadow of the Almighty.
There is Someone called “The Almighty” – All Power belongs to Him.
The Almighty means that: “The One who can do All Things”.
Psalms 62:11 tells us that God has Spoken once, twice have I heard it that Power belongs to God.
In Jeremiah 32:27, it says: Behold I am the Lord God of all flesh, is anything too hard for me?
In Luke 1:37, the Bible says: But with God, Nothing shall be Impossible.
If you read Matthew 28:18, you will know who is this Almighty – Jesus Christ said that: All Power in Heaven and Earth has been given unto me.
He said in John 14:14, He says that if you ask anything in my Name, I will do it.
There are some Testimonies that when we share them, some People don’t believe us – They say that can’t be true and they say that how come about all these kinds of Stories.
That is why we find it so difficult to share some Testimonies.
But maybe just one will show you that there is Someone called “The Almighty” – Because that Almighty is about to show Himself Strong on behalf of Somebody Today.
This woman happened to be a Family friend – I mean she went to the same School with my wife and so we have known her for almost sixty (60) Years if not more.
And so she fell sick. She had Cancer of the Voice Box; and the Doctors said that there is only one way to spare her Life – They must remove the Voice Box.
And before we knew it, they have already done the Operation at The University Teaching Hospital, Ibadan.
And when they removed the Voice Box, automatically that means that you will never speak again.
But we went and we Prayed for her – We cried to the God who can do the Impossible.
And I am decreeing Today or as you read now on the Label of DMC: Everything that has been called Impossible in your Life shall become Possible – Amen!
But so anytime we want to communicate with her, we use the Phone – We send a Text to her and she will reply with Text.
And one day, I had travelled Abroad and returned. And as I was coming out of the car, I saw a woman rolling on the Ground – What is the Problem with this woman now?
And then I looked closely and she looked at me and said: Daddy, it is me! I can speak again.
That God is called “The Almighty” – He will Pay us a visit Today (Amen).
- Now that brings us to where we are going:
He that dwelleth in the Secret Place of the Most High shall abide under the Shadow of the Almighty.
This Almighty has a Shadow!
In Psalm 17:8, it says that you will keep me like the Apple of the eyes, you will hide me under the Shadow of thy wings.
Psalms 36:7 says: How excellent is thy Loving Kindness Oh God, that is why children of Men put their Trust under the Shadow of thy wings.
And it is in this Shadow that you should put your Trust – Particularly those of us who are in the Military and Paramilitary Establishments; as well as all of us: Young and Old, as we move about; whether at home or Abroad and whether in time of Peace or in the time of war.
There is this Story of three (3) fish swimming about in an Ocean. And in that Ocean, there is this mother Shark with a baby Shark that loves to eat fish – They were terrorising these three (3) fish.
And so one day, these three (3) fish called a Prayer Meeting – Lord, Please come down we want to talk to You.
And the Lord come down – Yes, what do you want?
The first fish said that I want all the scales on my body to become eyes.
Why? So that as I am swimming, whenever this mother Shark and baby Shark wanted to attack me, I would have seen them long before they come close.
Is that what you want? The Lord said: Fine, Request granted.
The second fish say that I want a Pair of wings so that when these Sharks are comimg after me, I will fly out and they can’t come to get me in the air.
Okay, Request granted.
The third fish said: Lord, all I want is that wherever I go, You go with me.
God said Request granted.
And then the Lord left.
Immediately, the fish with scales all over the body, the scales became eyes – Beautiful fish with eyes everywhere.
The one that requested for wings, Powerful two (2) wings came.
The third one remained Ordinary – Just as if nothing had happened.
As soon as the Lord left, the Shark said: Look at this beautiful fish. We have never seen anything like this and so let us go for it.
And they moved towards the fish with all eyes. Of course, he saw them coming and ran towards the Beach and saw a little Pool of water on the sand there and leapt into that little Poll of water and began to laugh.
And it says: You think you can get me? I have eyes everywhere now.
But soon the Sun arise and the little Pool of water dried up and the fish with many eyes died.
And so when the Shark found out that they couldn’t get the first fish, they turned round and looked at the one with wings – There is this one here, let’s go and get it.
As they were moving towards it, it flew out of the water and said, you don’t know I have wings now and can fly.
And around that time, an Eagle was flying over in the air and the Eagle looked and said: Ha, what am I seeing? A fish in my Domain? God Thank You, I have always wanted to eat fish only that I can’t swim and now one had come to meet me in my Domain.
So the second fish ended up as Dinner for the Eagle.
Then the baby Shark said to the mother Shark – There is this third one, it doesn’t even seems to be afraid of us but let’s go and get it.
And the mother Shark said: Are you blind? Can’t you see that wherever it is going, there is the Shadow of a Man following it. You get close to that one and the Man with the Shadow will kill you.
Psalm 121: 5-8 tells you that your Security is assured as you go in and come out because the Lord is your Shade on your Right Hand.
And so, the Name of that Shadow is: “The Lord”.
And another Name for “The Lord” is Jesus!
Let me hear you shout Jesus – JESUS!!!
I am about to tell to tell you a Story or two (2) – And I am saying it because it is the Truth.
When we talk about the Shade – The Protection of God over you; it might be something Completely unseen but it is there.
There is that Shade over The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) – You know that I never Preach Church and I never Preach Denomination but there is something Peculiar about The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).
A couple of Years ago, a Hurricane was approaching a Particular City in America and they told the People to evacuate and run away from the Towm because the Hurricane that was coming is very fierce.
One of my children there Phoned me and said: Daddy, this is what is happening here o? We your children are many here and they ask us to run. But even the highway is already jam-packed – Help us.
So I turned to the One who made Heaven and Earth – I said: Turn the Hurricane away!
The Hurricane came because it was already very close to the Place but it turned – It went Upcountry and then get diverted back to the Sea.
You may say: How are we sure that, that happened? Don’t worry, that is not where I am going.
But the Hurricane was so close to the Land that it brought Heavy Rain and it flooded huge Part of the City.
A couple of years later, I was visiting that City and they took me to a Particular Street.
And on that Particular Street, there were fifteen (15) houses side by side.
And they said: Daddy, when that Rain came and Produced a huge flood; the first house to the fifteenth house were flooded.
But there was a House Number 8 – The flood didn’t enter it.
And there is only one thing that made that house different from the others – There is a Sign that was put on the wall of the House: “House Fellowship of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) holds here”.
Oh, you say that is in America and how are we sure that you are telling us the Truth?
- A couple of weeks ago, here in Nigeris – And it made National News; a Tanker dropped from the Bridge around Otedola Estate in Lagos State Nigeria.
DMC NOTES: The Otedola Bridge Gas Tanker Explosion, which led to a fire Outbreak and destroyed two (2) houses, occurred on Tuesday, March 11, 2025. The incident also led to the loss of several lives. The fire was reportedly extinguished by the Lagos State Fire Service and Lagos State Emergency Management Agency.
The resulting Fire Outbreak burnt a House, jumped to the third House and burnt that one.
There was a House in-between House Number 1 and House Number 3 – There was not a touch of Fire.
☆ There is a Bus Parked at the back of that House – No touch of Fire.
☆ There is a Small Garden by that second House – No touch of Fire.
That Second House is a Building of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).
Those of you living in Lagos or you get to visit Lagos State Nigeria, you can go there to find out – It is still there!
DMC NOTES: The Parish is Question under the Leadership of Pastor Charles Awoyele (PICZ) is: RCCG, The Fulfillment Centre, Zone 6 Youth Province 2; which is situated on Plot 2, Block 21A, Abba Sangoe Road on CMD Road Magodo Lagos State Nigeria.
What happened that House 1 got burnt and House 3 got burnt but House 2 was spared? It is because there is something called “The Shadow of The Almighty”.
Beloved, there is Somebody called: “The Most High” and He has a Secret Place.
There is Someone called “The Almighty” and He has a Shadow!
He is inviting you to become one of His Children so that wherever you go, it doesn’t matter what the Enemies may try; the Shadow will Protect you from all evil.
Forgive me, I believe that God wants me to tell you one more Story:
Years ago, when God took us to what is now called “Redemption City” – We were very few. And in those days, Highway Robbers used to use that Place as their Headquarters.
One day, they had thrown roadblocks and knock down the tyres of Vehicles and the Police were near.
When they saw what had happened, they went into ambush – They wanted to wait for those responsible for these things to come. The People in the Vehicles that they robbed had run to the Redemption Camp.
And so, when they ran to the Camp, the People in the Camp decided that we will follow you to go and collect your luggage.
As they were coming – They didn’t know that the Police were in hiding; but as the Police saw them coming, they thought that they were the Robbers.
They just discovered that as they were getting closer, they began to hear “fire” and they looked at themselves, where is the fire?
They continued – Again they heard fire and for the third time they heard fire.
And then, they got there – Removed the goods of the People amd they were moving back to the Camp then the Policemen got up from their hiding Place.
And the Leader of the Police said: What kind of People are you? I told my boys to fire three (3) times and none of them responded.
And he asked his Policemen: Why didn’t you fire? They said that we Pulled the trigger and nothing happened.
I am not Preaching Church – I am Preaching Jesus Christ!
That Jesus Christ is asking you to come to me now so that wherever you go, my Shadow will be there for you.
We are living in dangerous times – The Bible says that: “Horses are made for the Day of Battle, but Safety is of the Lord” (DMC NOTES: Proverbs 21:31).
ALTAR CALL
So, if you have not Surrendered your Life to Jesus Christ, I beg you to come now:
Come and Surrender your Life to Jesus Christ and come and live the rest of your Life under the Shafow of the Almighty.
I will count from one (1) to to ten (10) – By the time that I say ten (10), and you are not already Standing before the Altar, I will round up the Service and you have been given the Chamce.

SPECIAL PERSONAL PRAYER REQUEST
Now, I want you to cry to the Almighty God yourself.
I don’t need to beg you to Pray this Prayer- You Pray it if you want to.
But if you are relying on anything other than the “Shadow of The Almighty God” for Protection; then you are wasting your Time.
Ask the Elders – They will tell you that: “Charms can go Watery”.
DMC NOTES: “Awọn ifayá lè yọ”.
Protection of any form(s) other than from God can fail you at any time!
You don’t believe me: Ask Goliath – At the crucial moment, the devil failed him.
Open your mouth and cry to God and say: Father, abide with me wherever I go. Keep me under Your Shadow!
Go ahead and cry unto the Almighty God!!!
Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
