My Father and my God; I want to Thank You for Your Children born in the Month of May.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
- The June 2025 Holy Ghost Service if the Lord tarries will take Place on Friday 6th of June 2025.
And we will be discussing: “DESTINED FOR GREATNESS – PART 2”.
Because the issue of Destiny is too large to be discussed in one Session.
- Fortunately for us, Next Month (June 2025); our Children (Youths and Young Adults) will be coming from various Zones (North, East, South and West) for their Ministrations.
And they will bring various dimensions to the Topic: “Destined For Greatness”.
I Thank God for the Message brought to us by the First Speaker (DMC NOTES: Pastor Olaoluwa Abioye – Assistant National Youth Pastor NYAYA and PICP, YP 2, Ajao Estate Lagos Nigeria) – That was a Great one!
And I Pray that the Almighty God will renew your Anointing in Jesus Mighty Name – Amen!
By the way, I think we should give a big round of applause for the Choir. Again, they’ve done excellently well tonight.
I Thank God for the Chaplaincy – You are Wonderful People. I am Proud to belong to you.
Glory be to God!
Jeremiah 29:11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of Peace, and not of evil, to give you an Expected End.
GOD IS A BUILDER
- He Builds Houses:
In Exodus 1:15-21, the Bible says, because the Midwives feared God, He built them houses. So, God is a Builder of Houses.
- He Builds Marriages:
God is a Builder of Marriages.
In Genesis 2:18-25, He is the One who said, it is not Good that a Man should be alone.
He is a Builder of Marriages – Which is why I am expecting several thousands of Marriages this Year 2025 – Amen.
- He Builds Homes:
He is a Builder of Homes – Not just Houses, but Homes; not just Marriages, but Homes.
He Himself is called Father.
You cannot be called Father if you don’t have children – He is against Barrenness.
Which is why I am decreeing that in the Name that’s above every other name; there’ll be many, many happy children coming to the homes that are currently considered barren – Amen.
- He Builds Cities:
He is a Builder of Cities – Not just Homes, but Cities.
In Hebrews 11:10, the Bible tells us that Abraham was looking for a City that has Foundations, whose Builder and Maker is God.
He Builds Cities.
- He Builds People:
God is a Builder of People.
1 Corinthians 3:9 says we are God’s Building.
He Builds People.
GOD IS AN ARCHITECT
He is not just a Builder; He a an Architect.
In Hebrews 11:10, He uses the word ‘Maker’ – “For He looked for a City which hath Foundations, whose Builder and Maker is God.”
The word ‘Maker’ there is another word for Architect.
God is not just a Builder, He is an Architect.
He doesn’t begin to build unless there is a Plan.
That is why the Bible says in Acts 15:18, Known unto God are all His works from the Beginning of the world.
He knows the end from the Beginning.
That is why He says in Jeremiah 1:4-5, Then the Word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I Ordained thee a Prophet unto the Nations.
Before I put you together in your Mother’s belly, I already knew thee.
You didn’t come to the world by accident – There was a Plan for your Life.
And when you read Romans 9:17, you would see there, God said He raised Pharaoh for a Purpose.
Pharaoh didn’t just become Pharaoh without a reason; God said, I raised him up for a Purpose.
And for what Purpose? He said, “So I can show my Power.”
He raised up Pharaoh so He can drown him and so that the whole world would hear that there is Someone who is Greater that the fellow who considered himself the ‘greatest.’
So, when you see someone Prospering through wicked means don’t be envious of him or her. Wait till the end.
By the time you read Exodus 4:19-20, when God was sending Moses to go and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt; He told Moses, “Pharaoh won’t let you go. I will harden his Heart.”
Poor Pharaoh! He was in trouble even before the game began.
God said, he won’t let you go. Because if he agrees to let you go, I won’t be able to demonstrate my Power in him.
Pharaoh was Destined for Destruction – It’s frightening.
And by the time you read Daniel 4:1-end, you would see the Story of Nebuchadnezzar.
God created him so that He would show the one who thinks there’s no one like him, “you are here for an Experiment.”
To show to the world that He can make a King eat grass like and animal, and then restore him. And the King would say, there is no one like God.
I Pray that your Destiny would be a Good one – Amen.
Because, when you consider Paul the Apostle, and you read Galatians 1:14-24, he started by being an Antichrist. At the end of the day he ended up an Apostle. And he said, God had settled the matter before I was born.
There is Somebody here Today, or reading now on the Label of DMC; God has Settled the matter – Amen.
One of the reasons He brought you here Tonight is because your matter has been Settled – Amen.
I wish we have a whole year to discuss this Topic – But then, let us now focus on you, as an Individual.
In Jeremiah 29:11 (The Bible Text that we read) God said, For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of Peace, and not of evil, to give you an Expected End.
The Destiny God has for you is a Good one – “How do I know?”
Genesis 1:26-28, if you read that Passage with Understanding, you will find that God created you to be like Him – “Let us make Man in our Image and Likeness.”
He created you to be like Him.
In Psalm 82:6, He said, I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are Children of the Most High.
And if you are a Child of God, well, automatically, according to John 1:11-12 which says, But as many as received him, to them gave He Power to become the Sons of God, even to them that believe on His Name:
Are you a Christian? You are a Child of God. Even the world calls you that.
If you are a ‘True Christian” and you misbehave, Sinners would turn to you and say, but you call yourself a Child of God.
Do you know what they are saying? You are supposed to be like your Father.
Now, the Elders has a saying – They say, “An Elephant never gives birth to a dwarf; that the child of an Elephant will automatically be an Elephant (Big).”
The day the child of an Elephant is born, it is born big, because an Elephant will not give birth to a dwarf – Like father, like children.
Inside every child there is something called the gene of the father – Science just discovered that some years ago.
So, they can test you, test your father; or they can test you and test some men; and tell you who your father is: “That is your father, the other fellow is a Pretender.”
And it is very accurate.
In 1 John 4:4, the Bible says, Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them (why?) Because Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.
There is something in you that would show that you belong to God.
That is why, whatever you want to do to a cat; no matter how hungry a cat may be, it is not going to eat grass. It would rather die of hunger.
Why? Because there is something inside it that says, “grass is not for you.”
Which is what I tell those who cannot live a Holy live: If you are truly Born of God, you won’t sin.
Why? There is something in you that will hate sin.
If a sheep falls into a pit of muddy waters, it will cry until it is Pulled out.
If you get a pig and you wash it very clean and you release it; where will it head? Into the muddy waters – Because that is where the stain inside it directs it to go.
I have a rough idea that before this Night is over, those who are Destined for Greatness will know themselves – Amen.
ATTRIBUTES OF YOUR GOD
Tonight, I want to show you some Attributes of your Father, which should begin to manifest in you.
When Mummy G.O was leading us in Prayer she spoke about the Greatness of God being Unsearchable – You can’t discover it all
Let’s speak about the Attributes of God that should begin to manifest in you: because if you are a True Child of God, you are Destined to be Great.
- GOD IS ALMIGHTY:
Everybody agrees on that, including those who don’t even like Him – God is Almighty.
Psalm 91:1 says, He that dwelleth in the Secret Place of the Most High shall abide under the Shadow of the Almighty.
What do we mean by Almighty? Almighty means Somebody who can do anything.
Jeremiah 32:27 says, Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
Luke 1:37 – For with God Nothing shall be impossible.
And do you know that you too can be like your Father, the Almighty? You can get absolutely anything done.
I discovered long ago that there is one word you can never find in the Dictionary of God – And that is the word “Impossible”.
From the moment I discovered that, all those who are close to me know that there is one word I don’t want to hear – And that is the word, ‘i/Impossible.’
And I decree today, in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, from now on, Nothing will be Impossible for you – Amen.
When we wanted to have the first Convention here in this Camp (now Redemption City), one of the New Converts came to me and said, Daddy, I want to come to the Convention but where am I going to stay?
He was a New Convert, a Big Man; and the building we were Preparing for People to stay is like somebody called, “Chicken Pens.”
You know, we just drive some wood into the Ground, roofed it and built up to a meter high. And surround the rest with Mosquitoes Netting as Accommodations.
He said, my friends won’t be able to follow me here if I tell them this is where we are going to be spending the Night – “Where will I stay?”
I said well, we still have seven (7) days to go; we can build you a Bungalow.
He said, a Bungalow in seven (7) days? I said, yes – “How many days did it take God to create the Heaven and the Earth? He said, six (6) days.
I told him, “I am His Son”. Nobody believed it could be done!
He said, if you build a Bungalow in seven (7) days, it would collapse within a year – It was built in 1983; it is still there.
How many of you believe that from Tonight onwards, the word “Impossible” will leave your Dictionary? The DMC Family Members.
Your Father is the Almighty. And He says in Mark 9:23, If thou canst believe, all things are Possible to him that believeth.
How many things are Possible? All things!
I want you to leave here Tonight or after reading this Message on the Label of DMC; with the assurance that from this moment onwards, all things will be Possible unto you.
Why? Because You are a Child of God, and your Father is the Almighty.
- GOD IS SOVEREIGN:
Psalm 115:3 says, But our God is in the Heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath Pleased.
He is Sovereign.
Why? Because according to Psalm 24:1 the Bible says, The Earth is the LORD’s, and the Fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
Whatever may be dwelling on Earth, He says, I made them; and I own them.
And because I own them, I can do whatever I like with them.
And He says concerning you in Genesis 1:28, I want you to Subdue the Earth, take Charge, and have Dominion.
You know, whatever is happening in your Life is because you allow it to happen – That will shock you!
Because, the Almighty God has embedded in you the Ability to have Dominion over everything: including wild animals.
James 3:7 says, For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of Mankind.
Every kind of beasts have been tamed!
Human Beings can make Elephants to dance.
There are some People who keep Lions as Pets – Because there is this thing in Man that puts you in Charge.
I’m believing my God that He would help you understand that whatever is troubling you is because you allow it.
All those things bothering you would be removed Tonight – Amen.
In Mark 16:17-18, He gave you Power, even to cast out Demons.
He said, They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
I remember my first visit to Zambia – I’ve told you the Story before.
I ate something there that didn’t agree with my stomach and in the night I began to go to the toilet. I can’t remember the full details now, but whether it was about the 23rd time of going to the toilet, it just occurred to me:
What’s going on here? Is it not written that I will lay hand on the sick and the sick will recover?
And He didn’t say who the sick will be – Today, I am the sick one. So I laid my hand on my head and I said, Stomach hear the Word of God, be quiet!
… And that was the end of the Problem.
Lay your own hand on your head and decree: Everything in me that should not be there, get out!
Go ahead, say it as if you mean it – It might be the beginning of your Testimonies.
You are Destined to be like God – That’s who you are Destined to be like.
In Jesus’ Name, it shall be so – Amen!
- God is the Almighty. You are His son: All you need to do so you can do the Impossible is just to believe in Him.
- He is Sovereign: He does as He Pleases. And He gave you Dominion, He put you in Charge.
- GOD RULES BY DECREES:
Take Note of that!
Psalm 33:8-9 says, Let all the Earth fear the LORD: let all the Inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. For He spake, and it was done; He Commanded, and it stood fast.
In Genesis 1:1-3, the Bible says, In the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth. And the Earth was without form, and void; and Darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be Light: and there was Light.
He rules by decrees.
Thank You Father.
The Lord says there is Someone here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:
Who has been asking, “God, where are You?”
He asked me to tell you: “I am by your side” – Amen.
Thank You Father.
I believe this is for me; and it is for Somebody else.
The Lord asked me to tell Someone here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:
He says, I am the Alpha, and I am the Omega.
He asked me to tell you: Your future is Secured in my Hands – Amen.
In Mark 4:35-41, when there was a Storm, and they woke Jesus Christ up, He spoke only a Word; and He decreed: “Peace be Still”.
And the Storm obeyed Him.
And according to Job 22:21-28, the Bible says if you are at Peace with God, you would decree a thing and it would be established unto you.
We know these things and we read them.
The Problem is: Don’t we believe them?
In Mark 11:22-23, He said, And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have Faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this Mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
It is not the Pastor who said so – It is the One who can never lie.
Please, with all Boldness, decree right now and say: In the Mighty Name of Jesus, every Mountain across my Path, get out!
Say it as if you mean it.
So shall it be, in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
I beg you, don’t treat Tonight as another Service, because your Destiny is at stake.
The Word that is coming to you is not a Sermon; it is a Message from Heaven – You are Destined to be Great.
Just like the Choir sang: You are not Destined to be an Ordinary Man and you are not Destined to be an Ordinary Woman; you are Destined to Win.
And from now on, you will begin to Win – Amen.
In Acts 13:6-12, Paul was Preaching to a Governor, and there was a Sorcerer who was trying to Prevent the Governor from paying attention.
The Bible says he kept on doing what he was doing, until Paul said, wait a Minute, “why are you disturbing me? Why are you hindering me from doing what I want to do for God?”
He said, I decree, be blind!
Thank God he said, “For a Season”.
The moment he said so, the Man became blind, and moved out of the way.
Everything blocking your way; everything that is not allowing you to do what you want to do for God; Please open your mouth and say, get out of my way!
Thank You Father. In Jesus’ Mighty Name – Amen.
The devil is cheating you and I am angry with the devil.
The reason he is cheating you is because he knows you don’t know who you are – He is trying to take advantage of you.
But things are about to Change now – Amen.
I remember very well, one of my daughters came to me and said, I am going to the American Embassy for Visa. I said, God will go with you. Then she returned and said, they didn’t give me the Visa. I said, but I Prayed. She said, I knew they won’t give me. I said why? She said, because you didn’t say, “It is done!”
I said sorry; did they ask you to Appeal? She said yes. Alright, go ahead and Appeal and this time, it is done!
Then she went back for another Interview.
And whenever they refuse you and you are Appealing, they would send you to the original fellow who refused you.
She went to the same fellow, with the same documents and the fellow said, you mean we refused you? She said yes, you did.
He said sorry and she was given two (2) years Visa.
Whatever you ask from my God Tonight, I stand in my Office as your father, and I say: It is done – Amen!
Rule by decrees, because you are a Child of your Father.
You are Destined to be like your Father.
Be in Charge of every situation around you, and take Control – This year is Crucial.
When I was a Lecturer at the University of Lagos, there were some Young Converts who were around me – They come to do Bible Study in my Office.
Then one Night after I had gone home – I was living in Surulere (Lagos Nigeria), Information got to one of them that the Secret Cults have made up their Minds that they were going to burn down the School Library – They’ve already bought kegs of Petrol that they were going to use.
One of my boys heard and called others together – And they were saying, our Leader has already gone home, what are we going to do?
And one of them said: we don’t need him to handle this case; afterall, he had taught us: Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on Earth shall be bound in heuaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on Earth shall be loosed in Heaven (DMC NOTES: Matthew 18:18).
How many of you believe in that Statement?
So, they gathered themselves together and Prayed.
Then the Cult Boys sat down, they said they will wait till Midnight.
In the meantime they were drinking Palm Wine. By the time they woke up, it was Morning already.
And they began to quarrell among themselves – How can you fall asleep on duty?
They said to their leader, what kind of Leader are you?
And he said to them what kind of Followers are you? If I fell asleep, why didn’t you wake me up?
With their own hands, they poured away the Petrol they had bought.
Because some small boys decided that they too would rule; they would be in Charge.
*Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on Earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in Heaven (DMC NOTES: Matthew 18:19).
Hold the hand of your Neighbour and say: I agree with you, every Obstacles on your way will not be there by tomorrow Morning.
Thank You Father. In Jesus’ Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Thank You Daddy.
The Lord asked me to tell Someone here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:
That thing which is crawling in your head has crawled away; And it is not going to come back – Amen.
- GOS IS ALL-KNOWING:
Acts 15:18 – Known unto God are all His works from the Beginning of the world.
God knows what had happened in the Past, He knows what is happening Presently and He knows what is going to happen in the Future.
He is your Dad – Like Father, like son and daughter.
I. He can show you Hidden Things:
In 2 Kings 5:20-29, Elisha didn’t leave home, yet he saw everything that Ghazi did.
In 2 Kings 6:8-12, Elisha didn’t leave his house, but he saw what the King was Planning against his own King.
I Pray for Somebody here Tonight, including those reading now on the Label of DMC: Every Plan of your Enemies, God will be exposed – Amen.
In Acts 5:1-11, Peter was not there when Ananias and Sapphira were making their little Plan. But the moment they came to Him, God revealed everything.
II. He can show you what happened in the Past, that is causing your Present trouble.
So that if you need to Restitute, you can go ahead and Restitute.
Thank You Father.
The Lord said there is Someone here tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:
He said you ate Poison in your Dream.
… You see, eating in the Dream can be very dangerous – Like the Testimony you heard Tonight.
He says, at the next shout of Hallelujah, the Poison would disappear – Amen.
III. He can show you things to come:
He told Abraham in Genesis 15:1-15, look at the Stars, can you count them? No, LORD. So shall your children be.
He was talking to a Man whose wife was barren; but He was showing him the Future.
By the time you get to Exodus 12:37, when the Children of Israel were leaving Egypt, the Bible says there were six hundred thousand (600,000) Men, without counting children.
If there are six hundred thousand (600,000) Men, and you have not counted the children; then you know we are talking about Millions.
But that is not really the beauty of it all – The beauty of it all is that:
IV. God can show you a Glimpse of your Destiny:
He can show you just a little bit of what is coming.
I mean, you know the Story of Joseph very well.
Thank You Father.
I can hear Somebody Singing a Song – It is a Song in Yoruba.
But the meaning of the Song is, “My Joy has just started.”
SONG
Se l’ayo mi se se bere (My Joy has just started or began)
Mo do Ori Ire (I am a Victor or Victorious)
Somebody is going to Sing that Song before the end of this Month – Amen.
In Genesis 37:5-11, God showed Joseph a glimpse of his future.
If only God can show you a little glimpse of the Greatness ahead of you, your Life would Change.
You might be Nobody now, wait and see what would happen before the end of this Year – Amen.
He didn’t ask you to Fast for hundred days for Nothing. People laughed at us when we were Fasting and they even called me Stupid Old Man.
I want to tell Somebody listening to me Tonight, including those reading on the label of DMC: As many of you as took Part in that Fast, you will Laugh Last – Amen.
God showed Joseph a glimpse of what was coming.
By the time we get to Genesis 50:15-21, everything God said came to pass.
And many of you have received Prophecies upon Prophecies, that you knew without any doubt, “this is mine”.
I can assure you, it doesn’t matter what is going on; whatever He said He will do, will come to Pass – Amen.
I have told you this Story before; the first time my father-in-the-Lord and I went to America, to attend Kenneth Hagin Camp Meeting.
After the Programme we went to a Church on Sunday to Worship.
Papa and I, because we were Visitors, they put us in the front row. Papa couldn’t speak or understand English, so I helped him Interpret.
The Preacher came down from the Pulpit, stood in front of my father-in-the-Lord – Papa was sitting there, every hair on his head was white.
The Preacher said, “Thus saith the LORD, that which I Promised you is about to come to pass.” And then he went back and continued Preaching.
My father-in-the-Lord asked me what he said. And I told him, I will tell you when we get back home because I wanted to hear the rest of the Sermon.
When we got home, I asked Papa, what was it that God told you at the Beginning?
He said, at the Beginning when He was asking me to start this Church, He told me that the Church would go round the world. And at that time, the Church was only in South West of Nigeria.
Look at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) today, it is everywhere.
Why? Because God is Faithful – If He has Promised, He will fulfill the Promise.
I decree to Somebody here Tonight, including those reading now on the Label of DMC: Even before the end of this Month, you will Testify – Amen.
IV. He can open your Eyes, and cause you to see Visions:
That is what He Promised in Joel 2:28 – And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall Prophesy, your Old Men shall Dream dreams, your Young Men shall see Visions:
Your Father is the One who made the seeing eyes.
Proverbs 20:12, The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.
Thank You Father.
This one is for me. And I believe it must be for my wife also; and Somebody else.
The Lord asked me to tell Someone here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:
He said, you will be much Greater than you think – Amen.
Let’s talk about one more Attribute of God. Because I want you to have time to Pray Tonight.
And you are going to Pray with Faith and Assurance.
You are not an Ordinary Person, you are a Child of the Living God.
What your Father can do, you can do – If He can can decree, you can decree too.
- GOD IS ETERNAL:
He lives forever.
1 Timothy 1:17 says, Now unto the King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the Only Wise God, be Honour and Glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Thank You Lord.
The Lord asked me to tell Somebody here Tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:
I think He says, maybe your feet is shaking where you are.
He asked me to tell you: “I Planted you, Nobody can Uproot you” – Amen.
Thank You Lord.
The Lord said I should tell Someone here tonight, inclusive those reading now on the Label of DMC:
He said, for a long time you have been Praying for Showers of Blessing.
He asked me to tell you: The Rain would begin to fall this Month – Amen.
In Genesis 3:22-24, there is a tree called the Tree of Life. It was in the Garden for a purpose. God was just waiting for Adam and Eve; waiting for the right moment, so they can eat it.
They were supposed to live forever.
And if you are a True Child of God, according to 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 – For the Lord himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the Voice of the Archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the Clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
You are going to live forever with the Lord. Death is not an end of the Show.
If you are a True Child of God, when you die, you go to Heaven and be with the Lord forever.
But of course, if you reject Him, you are still going to live forever.
According to Mark 9:43-48, there is a Place where the worms never die.
That’s a Place called Hell.
So, you either go to Heaven or you go to Hell and wherever you go, you will be there forever.
I Pray that I will see you in Heaven – Amen!
… Let me Conclude Tonight.
How do I know whether or not, I am Destined for Greatness? It is simply by what you Hunger after.
There’ll be something in you that you hungry after – It’s either you are being drawn to God; you just find out that what you want is what God wants, not the opposite.
When you read Romans 9:10-13, the Bible says before Jacob and Esau were born; when they were still in the stomach God had already said, Jacob I love, Esau I hate.
They were not yet born; God who sees the End from the Beginning said, these two boys are twins. They are about to be born; one is going to like food more than anything Spiritual.
You know what happened in Genesis 25:29-34, Esau said to Jacob, give me food. Jacob said, if you want my food, give me your Birthright.
You are the firstborn; according to the Law of God you are to have Double Portion Blessing; give that to me, then you can have food. Esau said okay, you can have it. Just give me food.
It is a Parable that God gave to show us:
- What it is that Interest you?
- What do you thirst after?
In 1951 (you would know how small I was); the Anglican Bishop of Ibadan came to visit the little Church in Ifewara (my Village in Osun State Nigeria).
In 1951 only two (2) lorries came to Ifewara at that time – One is Austin, the other Bedford – I don’t see them around anymore.
And from the noise they make, you can tell which one is coming: Whether Austin or Bedford.
But then, the Bishop came in a car; and you can hardly hear the sound of the car – It just rolled into town almost quietly.
All of us who were Pupils lined up the route to welcome the Bishop.
The Hunters didn’t go to the farm – They were shooting in the air giving Gun Salute.
Drummers were beating their drums.
As the Bishop was Passing by me, he got to where he wanted to come down and when he stepped down from the car, I saw his shoes.
And I am telling you of 1951 – A time when the total number of People who wore shoes in Ifewara can be counted.
And I saw his shoes – Black and Shinning.
And my mouth was opened wide. He was wearing the Bishop Robe. Beautiful!
When I got home that day, I told my mother, when I grow up, I would be a Bishop.
My mother laughed happily.
Years Passed, I moved away from home; moved away from going to church.
But God saw the hunger – Somewhere along the line, I found Salvation. One way or the other, I became General Overseer.
1981 I went to visit my Village – I went in a car. I didn’t dress like a Bishop, but I dressed like a General Overseer.
The School children were out to welcome me; the Hunters were there firing their guns and the Drummers were there beating their drums.
And when I was about to come out of the car, I looked at my feet, my shoes were Black, and Shinning – Hallelujah!
I got a glimpse of my Destiny when the Bishop came.
And then I became Born Again, before I became General Overseer. Every day, there was this hunger:
- I want to serve God.
- I want to do more for Him.
- I want to spend for Him.
That is why, when they said there was going to be FESTAC (Festival of Art and Culture); I decided: If the whole Nation is going to be on Holiday because the People would be singing and dancing to one idol or the other; why don’t I gather People together, so we can sing and Praise God?
I decided to write to all Secondary Schools in Nigeria, and all Teacher’s Training Colleges.
I went to WAEC Office, collected their Addresses, invited them to come. I told them they would be fed. I had no money, as I was just a Lecturer Grade II.
After I had Printed the Invitation cards, and it was time to Post them – Because I got so many Addresses, I suddenly discovered that I didn’t even have enough Money to buy Stamps.
But I believed that God is going to gather the Nation together and somehow He would take care of them. So I sold my car to buy Stamps.
The hunger was there! I was looking for every opportunity to Witness, and every opportunity to win Souls.
I am still looking for more opportunities.
Thank God for the Month of May, when we do much more than just come to Church – When we go all out to win Souls.
What is the hunger in you? God is going to Prosper you, no doubt.
But what will you use the Money for? What is the hunger in you?
A couple of years ago, I spoke to all our Workers – Some of you have been Workers for years, and there is no Branch of the Church in your Village.
We used every trick in the Book – We sent People to the Market (Jesus in the Market) to go and Witness.
You go to somebody and say, I want to buy something; but I have something to sell – “What do you have to sell?” Salvation in Jesus Christ.
Because of the hunger to Please Him,
What is the hunger in you?
It is your hunger that will determine your Greatness.
You are not an Ordinary Person – The Office you occupy now is just for God to Provide food for you.
Your real Assignment is to win Souls for God – That is your Assignment.
You are Placed in that Office to take Charge; and to have Dominion; so that when People see you coming they won’t be able to continue with devilish jokes.
You are Placed in whatever Position you are, to be a Light that would Shine; so that when Darkness sees you coming, it would flee.
The Almighty God said in Acts 13:21-21, I have found a Man who would do all my Will – And He was talking about David.
How do we know that David is going to be Great? It is because even while he was in the bush looking after sheep; he was Singing, and Praising God.
Remember, he was the one who said in Psalm 34:1-3, I will bless the LORD at all times: his Praise shall continually be in my mouth.
What is the first thing you do when you wake up in the Morning?
I have Good News for you: If you seek first the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness, everything you Need, God will supply – Amen.
