Accept our thanks in Jesus' Name! Lord we are here before You now. We’ve been waiting on You since five o’clock of yesterday, we are now in a new day. Your Word says that weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning. We are in the morning now – let all our weeping end in Jesus’ Name!
(Amen!) Let our joy begin right now. Father, You are the Great Saviour – save souls tonight. You are the Great Physician – heal tonight! You are the Great Deliverer – deliver tonight! You are the Miracle-working God – perform miracles tonight! Father, we can’t surprise you but you can surprise us. For good tonight – surprise us. At the end of everything, let Your Name be glorified. Let everyone go home with a testimony. Thank You Daddy! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) Amen! Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) Shake hands with one or two people and say, ": Today is my day! Today is my day!" And then you may be seated – God Bless you! We have only few hours left but I can assure you my Father will do a lot during this period. Is there anybody here who has never attended a Holy Ghost Night before? Quite a few! Let me hear you shout ‘Alleluia!’ For your sake therefore I will need to make one or two quick introductions. But before I go to the introductions let me emphasize again that Saturday 5 o’clock we should all be here – there are faces here the Almighty God wants to show to the world. As we pray together tomorrow. And as it is shown allover the world – all the people that the Almighty God wants to bring to help you will look at the television and say, "Ah, that’s the fellow I must help!" I believe that the opportunity God is giving us tomorrow –well its today already now - at 6pm to 8 0’clock, is an opportunity that comes only once in a lifetime. I will be here and I will see to it that by the grace of God by 8.30 we would have finished and we’ll be on our way home – and you know me for my word. If I find that it is getting to nine o’clock and we haven’t finished – I will go. And when I’m going you are free to go because I know you want to prepare for Sunday. So I will advise – let’s come by 5 so that everything that must go on television can be going by six, end by eight, and then we pray for blessings for about thirty minutes and be on our way. Tomorrow is a special day. Saturday, I mean – you shouldn’t miss it at all. And don’t come alone. We have a great crowd here tonight. Let’s make it greater tomorrow and the Lord will bless you mightily as you do so. Now for the benefit of those who are coming to the Holy Ghost Service for the first time, I need to talk to you briefly about the language of the Holy Spirit. Whenever God wants to talk to a multitude, He talks to individuals – He will say, "There is someone here…" For example, He says "Behold I stand at the door and I knock, if any man hears my voice…" Any man – He’s talking to one man – hears my voice, open the door, I will come in into him…" But that ‘any man’ – could be one million people. For example there is somebody here tonight, one person, one fellow, who is going to be blessed...... who is that one fellow? – let me hear you shout ‘Alleluia!’ (Alleluia!) Now that’s the way God talks. So if you hear there’s somebody here… it could be one hundred thousand of us. Secondly, the Holy Spirit flows like a river and when the river is flowing, at the time when you should dip in your bucket to bring out your water, if you fail to dip it in at that moment, the river won’t wait for you it will just flow away, and you know, once the river has flown – it can’t come back – so you need to be alert because God can mention your particular problem at a time you think you are dozing. And if you hear ‘Amen’ and you woke and you say, ‘What did he say?" it will be too late by then! So tell your neighbour – don’t doze, don’t doze!" Let me hear you shout ‘Alleluia!’ Finally, before we go into the Word of God – there are some restaurants, we don’t have many of them in Nigeria, but there are very many in places like America. When you go in – they ask you to eat all you can. The first time I saw such a place, I couldn’t believe it but then I showed them. Anytime I go to any such place, by the time I left, they will know somebody had visited. Today, the Holy Spirit has spread before you a table in the presence of your enemies and He’s saying to you – eat all you can. On the table there is salvation.,.... there is healing there is victory, there is joy, there is promotion there is all kinds of blessing. Now if you like you can go to the table and take salvation only. That’s okay, that’s wonderful but if I were you, by the time I leave here tonight, even God will say, you can try my boy! How many of you will want your cup to run over this morning? Let me hear you shout ‘Alleluia!’ (Alleluia!)! Now for the next few minutes or so as the Lord will allow, I want to talk to you about the God of miracles - God of miracles. In Isaiah 9:6 the Bible says, For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given and the government shall be upon his shoulder and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counsellor, the mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of peace. Now the Bible scholars told us – those who really know Bible deeply, they said when they were translating the Bible from the original language to English they came across "And his name shall be called …" and then they saw a word. The word they saw there, they said, "How are we going to put this one down and say this is the name of somebody? Because the word they saw was "His Name shall be called ‘miracles’. When they couldn’t put that down, that’s when they wrote ‘wonderful’ But whether they called Him ‘miracles’ or ‘wonderful’; whether it is miracles or wonders, you will get abundance tonight in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!)! Because a miracle is nothing short of wonders..... A miracle is something that you see that you know this is not supposed to happen – something that doctors say can not be; something that science says "impossible", something that experience says can never happen! When they happen you call them wonders. When you have abundance of wonders then you have wonderful!
Tonight I want to look at seven areas, very quickly, where the Almighty God is going to surprise somebody....... He’s a God that works the miracles of healings John 1:1-3 Says: In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God, the same was with God from the beginning and it said by him were all things made and there was nothing that was made that was not made by him" Tell your neighbour, "God made me! ‘Say it as if you believe it! If it is God that made you then if there is anything wrong with your body, the best fellow to go to for repairs is the fellow who made you.
And in Exodus 15:26 Jesus Christ said, If you will hearken diligently to the voice of the Lord thy God… now don’t be surprised when I said Jesus spoke in Exodus… in the beginning was the word. That word in John 1:14 is the word that became flesh, that dwelt among us; that we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten son of the Father, full of grace and glory and truth. That same Jesus was the one speaking in Exodus 15:26 He said if you will hearken diligently to the voice of the Lord your God to observe and to do all the things that I command you this day, He said, I will bring none of the diseases that I have brought upon the Egyptians upon you… And then He ended by saying; I am the Lord that healeth thee. He’s the Almighty God who is the Great Physician.
And when you go to Genesis 2:21-23 you will find Him as the original surgeon. He was the first one to perform an operation. He was the first one to put a man to sleep and when He performed His own operation not a single drop of blood will fall to the ground! When He finished His own operation there’ll be no scar! That is why you who have been told by the doctor that you need an operation – my Father will do it here tonight! (Amen!) And after He finished there will be no scar to show, no blood will fall but you will know that you know that you know that the operation that you need, has been done by the Almighty God. If you are going home with a testimony tonight shout ‘Alleluia!’
(Alleluia!)
When you read Matthew 8:1-3 the Bible says, as he was coming down from the mountain. A great multitude followed him – a great multitude like this, followed him – and then a leper came, a man with an incurable came, fell at his feet and said, Lord, "I know that You can make me clean. All I am not sure of is, are you willing?" And Jesus touched Him and said, "I will. Be thou clean." And his leprosy was cleansed. There are people here tonight, you know it, that the doctors have said you have an incurable disease – but that is the beauty of it, because when my Father wants to do a miracle, He begins with an impossibility, and it’s always very good when the doctor had already said, "Impossible!" Then you can go back to them and say, ""Doctor, I know you are highly educated, but I have visited the doctor of doctors. That which you cannot do, my Father has done it." That is why all of you who are here today, with cancer, with diabetes, with aids, anything that they call incurable, as my Father lives, you will have a testimony before the sun rises. (Amen!) He can cure the incurable and He can restore the irrrestorable. In Matthew 12:10-13 … Thank You Father! The healing has already started and tonight it is starting with somebody who has a bleeding anus. The Lord said you can check – the bleeding has stopped. (Amen!) Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) Now in Matthew 12:10-13, the Bible said there was a man with a withered hand. That means the hand was dried up and by any means known to man that man was supposed to die with a withered hand but when Jesus arrived on the scene, He asked him to stretch forth his hand. The man didn’t even wait for a second command before he moved. He didn’t even want to say, "But my hand is withered, it cannot be stretched." As he stretched the hand, the Bible said, it became exactly like the original one. I want to encourage you right now as you are hearing the Word of God – those things which you couldn’t do before, begin to do them quietly. You will be amazed that the wind of the Holy Spirit had already blown in your direction. If you believe that, shout ‘Alleluia!’ (Alleluia!).
The Almighty God can heal you no matter how long the sickness had been. In John 5:1-9 there was a man who had been sick for 38 years. My Father healed him in less than 5 minutes. In fact, if it lasted 5 minutes, it is because the man was talking. "Will you be made whole?" That was the question He asked him and then he began to tell the story of how long the problem had been there. My Father ignored the story because He knew the story – He’s the Alpha and the Omega; He knows the end from the beginning and He knows the beginning from the end. There’s no one like Him! No matter where your problem is coming from. He doesn’t care the source of your sickness. The miracle-working God is going to surprise you tonight. I didn’t hear your Amen’ (Amen!)
And then when you read John 9:1-7 .... Thank You Father! The Lord says He’s healing eyes right now and there’s a particular person with distorted vision. The Lord asked me to tell you, you can check now – everything is as clear as anything. Oh! Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) When you read John 9:1-7 you find the God of miracles giving spare parts to a man who was born blind. I’ve given you the testimony again and again of several people who had received spare parts from God. And I am sure many of you will remember the testimony of a brother, that the doctor said will never have a child because in his own case, it was not that his sperm count was low, that his sperm count was zero! They said he could never, never have a child. He came to a Holy Ghost Service like this and cried to God: Why should my own be impossible! And then as the service was going on like this, he heard me speaking about God who can give spare parts and grabbed it and said: "That’s what I need! God that’s what I need!" He went home and when he got home he sat on his chair and dozed off. And he had a vision. In the vision he saw the General Overseer coming in, smiled at him and then walked away. He woke up and said, "Ahh! God has answered my prayer!" Nine months later he was holding up his child, his firstborn child! Tonight God is going to answer the prayer of somebody. Only one person? God will answer the prayer of only one person. Who is that person? Let me hear you shout ‘Alleluia!’ (Alleluia!)
He’s a God that works the miracles of healings.There are many people who think that maybe God does not want them to be fruitful. Oh no, no, no! The most urgent desire of God is that you be fruitful. He wants you to have your own children. How do I know? The first blessing that God pronounced on man in Genesis 1:29 is – be fruitful, be fruitful, be fruitful! The Almighty God before He said any other thing to man, before He ever pronounced any other blessing, He said – "Be fruitful." That is why I want you to know – all of You who came here tonight that the doctors have told that you can never have a child – I have good news for you - Nine months from today we shall rejoice with you. (Amen!) Let me hear your Amen to that! (Amen!) Oh, some of you will think you are already too old. Why don’t you ask Sara? Sarah was 90 years only, only 90 years so when God spoke to her and said, "You are going to have a baby." She laughed. And as I’ve told you I supported her laughter because if I too were a woman, 90 years old, and one prophet came and said, "Thus says the Lord: Nine months from now you will have a baby boy." I will laugh. That’s the best I can do, other than kick the prophet. I will just laugh and say you must have overeaten. I will ask the fellow – who gave you pounded yam? But the Almighty God said to Sarah in Genesis 18:14, He said: Is there anything too hard for the Lord to do? Tell your neighbour – my own will not be too hard for God!" Say it as if you mean it!
When you read! Samuel 1:9-20, the Bible tells us about the story of Hannah. The woman was not only barren, she was being tormented by her co-wife but she cried to God and my Father removed her reproach. He will remove your reproach tonight in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!).
I remember the story of a Pastor, one of my Pastors. In the UK. He had a wife who was barren. Every time he went to preach to people – any time he preached to particularly, his relatives, they will say to him: "If your Jesus is as powerful as you say, how about your wife? If you say He can answer by fire, not fire now – answer by baby. The moment He answer with baby, we will believe!" Everything in your life that is causing people to say, "Where is your God, shall be removed tonight in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!)! And I remember that day – another Pastor brought this couple and said, "They are your children pray for them! They have been praying on their own – nothing had happened. Maybe if you join your own to theirs. " – And I’m going to join my prayers to yours tonight. We prayed a simple prayer. Nine months later- the God who can answer by fire, also answered by a baby. There are many babies to be born as a result of tonight (Amen!) I want you to say 'Amen' tonight because all my Father has to do is just speak a word. Eli said to Hannah, "God will grant your request." And the lady said, "Amen." And my Father put a stamp on it. All of you who are trusting God for the fruit of the womb – God will grant your request. (Amen!) I say God will grant your request (Amen!). Then number three. He’s a God who can perform miracles of deliverance. Psalm 24:7-10 the Bible made it clear that this God that I’m calling upon is the Commander–in-Chief of the Hosts of Heaven. He said, "Who is the King of Glory? The Lord, the Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Who is the King of Glory?" He said, the Lord of Hosts, He is the Lord of Hosts. I am serving a God who has never lost a battle and it doesn’t matter how strong those forces that are binding you – He will set you free tonight. In fact, if those who are binding you will not let you go gently, according to Isaiah 49:24-26, the Bible tells me that can we take the prey from the mighty? Can we set the lawful captives free? The Bible tells me when the Lord of Hosts comes in not only will He take the prey from the mighty, not only will He set the lawful captives free, He said those who are holding you captive, if they make any resistance at all, He will feed them with their own flesh and He will make sure that they drink their own blood! All those witches and wizards that have been drinking your blood up to today, they have to leaver you by force (Amen!) if they don’t they will soon discover that they are drinking their own blood. Oh Thank You my Father. Thank You Father! The Lord said there is someone here for years you have been suffering from epileptic seizures. My Father asked me to tell you, you will never see it again. (Amen!) Thank You Father! Thank You my Father! Let‘s give the Lord a big hand – that’s a very good one. Thank You my Father! Blessed be Your Holy Name! Thank You my Father! Now when you read Mark 5:1-15, the Bible tells us the story of a man who was not just mad, the Bible said he had a legion of demons, which means more than 2000 demons were living in him. The demons were determined that they will never let him go. They drove him out of the house, He was living in the graveyard, when they bound him with fetters of iron, they gave him supernatural power to break them… The Devil was sure that this man was going to die mad but Jesus came on the scene and He spoke one word. He just said to the demons: "Go!" And the moment He said the word they all left. I am saying tonight – every yoke binding you – from whatsoever source so ever, I decree that they be broken in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) I say, I decree that they be broken in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!)
The Bible made it clear in Luke 13:11-17 He was talking about a woman that was bent double and no matter how hard she tried she could not lift herself up and Jesus Christ said she was bound by the Devil. And one word from my Father – "Woman thou art loosed." That woman was loosed immediately. Now the woman was bound physically but there are many people that are bound spiritually. They have tried, they have worked, they have laboured, they wanted to reach the top but the enemy said, "no – no matter how hard you try, you will remain in one spot – bent double … " But I come to you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, in the Name that is above every other name and I say tonight, everything that had been hindering your progress are destroyed in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!). The Bible says in Matthew 8:16-17, it said in the evening when the sun was set they brought the sick to Him. He healed their diseases and cast out the demons with his word. That same Jesus, the same yesterday, the same today, the same for ever more is here right now and every sickness, every disease, every bondage, shall vanish in Jesus’ Name!
(Amen!)
He’s a God who can perform miracles of prosperity – that’s point number 4, (Alleluia!)
For example. I want to build a University for Jesus. A University where the lecturers will never go on strike, a university where every lecturer will be speaking in tongues, a university where there will never be any demon, talk less of a cult. But then you know what happened? I traveled only last month – before I came back they have changed the Law! The Law before, if you want to build a University you must show us a letter from the bank that you have 200 million naira there. And I said that’s no problem, I know how to talk to the Bank Manager, he will give me the letter. But now the law has changed. No we don’t want the letter, it is money we want to see! And not 200 million any more. It is now 250 million – you must deposit it with the Government! And I said the Devil is a liar, as the Lord lives, next year the University is going to start. (Amen!) I don’t have the kobo but I have somebody up there – the God of prosperity. In Haggai 2:8 the Father said, ‘silver is mine, gold is mine’. In Psalm 24:1 my Father said, the earth belongs to me and the fullness thereof! Every oil under the ground belongs to my Father. In Psalm 50:10 my Father says the cattle upon a thousand hills belongs to me. If that is my Father I refuse to die in poverty. I want you to open your mouth and say – I refuse to die in poverty’ Say it one more time. That is why you are going to prosper. (Amen!) Because what I want for you my children is that when you hear me talk about a need like this one of you will get up angrily and say, Daddy we’ve told you not to talk like this any more! How much do you need? 250 million? How do you want the money? You want me to write a cheque or bring cash? How many of you want that kind of prosperity? Let me hear you shout Alleluia!
(Alleluia!)
We don’t need the money for clothes! No, God has taken us beyond that. We don’t need the money so we can marry a second or third wife! But we want to preach the gospel and we need money to preach the gospel and I know there is someone here tonight who is going to become a divine treasurer. If you are the one shout ‘Alleluia!’ (Alleluia!) And do you know? All you need is one financial breakthrough and all is set. Just one! Malachi 3:10 the Almighty God said bring ye all the tithes into my house into the storehouse so that there will be food in my house and test me hereby if I will not open the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing – how many blessings? One! Just one financial breakthrough – and you will not have room enough to contain.
You know at the beginning of this year, God asked me to start a program, first Monday of the month, 8.00 am at the Redemption Camp – one hour only! He said, those who will come first Monday of the month to any program, they must be serious. He said I should call it Divine Encounter. And we began. And things began to happen. And you know the latest one. One of my boys wrote a letter – I know him very well. And if you see him you will know what I mean when I say I know him very well. He said, Daddy, I have won a contract for 50 million naira!" I said, I won’t give this testimony. This boy doesn’t know what is fifty million. You! Fifty million! I said I will wait till I see him and then ask him do you means 50,000 or you mean half a million 500,000? Or maybe you even say 5 million. I can still believe God for that for you. You know, all those who are trying to limit the blessings of God in your life, God will surprise them! (Amen!) Before I knew what was happening. I got another letter from him. And said, Daddy, I was talking about one for 50 million. Now I’ve got one for 450 million and this time he came to show me evidence. Who is going to be the next one to give a testimony? Let me hear you shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) All you need is one major breakthrough that’s all. There are many people who look down on us in Nigeria and they say we are poor people – we will show them. I say we will show them! I didn’t hear you say Amen to that! The promise of the Almighty God is that we shall lend to nations. Who is going to be the first to lend to nations? I say it is me… when you read 2 Kings 4:1-7 you will know that my God can wipe away all your debt in one day. There was a story of a widow there, poor, Thank You my Father! Glory be to God! Ohhh!!! Thank You Daddy! The Lord said there is someone here tonight, your business is beginning to develop "K-legs". The Lord asked me to tell you, He will touch that business. Oh Thank You Father! – The Lord said there is someone here tonight, your hip bone was dislocated and you came here tonight with very great pain, walking very, very slowly in great pain, The Lord asked me to tell you everything is normal now – you can check – everything is normal now! 2 Kings 4:1-7 , a woman was so poor that the creditors wanted to sell her sons and my Father stepped in, in one day they cancelled her debt and she never had to borrow again for the rest of her life she had more than sufficient to spend and there is somebody here today– every debt you owe, my Father shall pay. (Amen!) Those of you who are owing banks right now, as my Lord lives very soon the banks will be owing you. Now just in case you are saying: "Oh my. Can I really be that rich?" In Exodus 3:15 God said to Moses, He said, I am the God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob. Check the Bible and you will see how rich Abraham was. Check the Bible and you will discover that Isaac was richer than Abraham. Check the Bible and you will discover that Jacob was richer than Isaac. They were rich to the glory of God, not for any human consumption but so that people will know that you are serving a God that is worthy to be served. Tonight my brother was saying – who will take a child into his home? How can you take a child into the home if you have no home yourself? God is going to prosper you – I say God will prosper you. (Amen!) Poverty is going to come to en end in your life tonight in Jesus’ Name!
(Amen!)
This God is a God who can perform the miracles of promotion. That’s number five. Psalm 75:6-7, It said promotion does not come from the East or the West or the South … God is the promoter, He is the judge, He lifts up one and puts down another., Next time somebody says to you that you will not be promoted tell the fellow he’s not your God. Any one who says you will not succeed, anyone who says you will not reach your goal. Tell the fellow – you are not my God – my future is not in your hands, my future is in the hand of the one whose name is Alpha and Omega. ..... And I can assure you, if you belong to God, if you belong to this living God and you are willing to live a life of holiness, I can assure you that your tomorrow will be all right. (Amen!) The Bible made it clear that the arms of God are everlasting arms. I’ve said it again and again, if it is a human being who is promoting you, how high he can take you is determined by how tall he is himself. If I’m going to lift up this notebook, how high I can lift it is determined by how tall I am. If I go on my toes, I can take it up maybe two inches higher but the arms of God are everlasting. When He picks you up He just keeps on lifting you up. That’s why I always tell my children, whatever you are seeing now, we have not started – we are going higher every day! How many of you will go higher in a daily basis. Let me hear you shout Alleluia!
(Alleluia!)
The Almighty God who took David from following the sheep and made him a king is still alive! The God who took Joshua, a servant, a messenger of Moses, and turned him to the leader of a nation – that God is still alive! The God that took Esther, a slave girl, and turned her to a queen - that God is still alive! The God who took Daniel, who was a captive in Babylon, and turned him to the leader of the presidents - that God is still alive! If He did that He can do my own. I’m not going to die small! Tell the fellow next to you – "I’m not going to die small. No, no, no, I’m going to reach great heights!" Say it as if you mean it! Whether the devil likes it or not, I am going to reach great heights because underneath are the everlasting arms lifting me up, to take me higher everyday!" You know the way of God – he reserves the best till the last. There are some of you here today that people have thought will never amount to anything. I want you to know, that God has not finished with you yet. As a matter of fact, He’s just beginning with you. And all those who are laughing at you now, all those who are looking down at you now, if they see where God is going to take you, they are going to say, your God is a great God. If God is speaking to you let me hear your ‘Amen’ to that! (Amen!) We had our brother talking about how poor he was – he should come and ask some of us, he will know that poverty passes poverty. But God is a promoter; He will promote somebody here tonight. You see God is a God – number six - who can perform the miracle of stilling storms. . So whether the storm in your life is physical or mental or spiritual He will speak only one word – Peace, be still – and every thing will become calm. Some of you here will remember the story. We went to hold a Holy Ghost Night at Liberty Stadium. The stadium was full – inside, outside, all the roads were filled with people. Ohh! … souls were saved, healings all over, and I was just rounding up to go when suddenly God spoke to me and said that there’s a woman in the crowd, in her armpits, instead of hair there are feathers. The Lord said, Call her out, I want to stop the problem." I said, "Daddy, we have had a wonderful night. Please let’s go home now. This one I know You are speaking the truth. I know there is such a woman because You said there is such a woman but she won’t come out! The television was on! Please Daddy let’s just go quietly." And Daddy said to me, "You want her to die in her problem?" I said, "No." "Then call her out. She was living in a storm, I want to still the storm." And of course that was a real storm. She couldn’t even let her husband see. Every morning, very early in the morning she will pluck out the feathers before the husband can wake up. Who is going to go to a pastor and say, "Pastor please pray for me I have feathers in my armpit."? I know any Pastor, if you find any body like that: "I think you should go to another church, I know a church where the Pastor is more anointed than me…" So I made the announcement. I thought nobody would come but the woman came and when she came I thought she didn’t understand what I said. I explained again. She said, "I am the one." W e prayed a simple prayer like we are going to pray very soon and the Almighty God took away all her problems. Every storm in your life – no matter how long it has been there – the storm of failure, the storm of poverty, the storm of barrenness, the storm of sickness, the storm of sorrow, the storm of fears, the storm of enemies from your father’s side, from your mother’s side, in the house of your husband, in your place of work – every storm shall be stilled tonight in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!)
Why Because Jesus said, come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy-laden and I will give you rest. He will give you rest tonight in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Finally, number seven; He’s the God who can perform the miracles of transformation of lives. Let me pause a bit because the number of healings are so many I just got carried away … I just felt I shouldn’t be telling you everyone of them but there are one or two that are so important I must mention them. The Lord said there is somebody, the doctor told you. You had liver problem and that’s why your eyes are yellow. You can ask your neighbour to look at your eyes, your eyes are clear now because God had healed. And the Lord said He is healing somebody who had been suffering seriously from hypertension, that your blood pressure is normal now, that peace, joy, strength is surging through your body right now. The Lord said there’s somebody here, the number of sicknesses in your body, you know them, if they add all of them together, there’s no reason why you should even be alive at all. The Lord asked me to tell you to check, He has healed you completely/
(Amen!)
All right let’s go on now. He has the power to transform lives. 2 Corinthians 5:17. It says if any man be in Christ he’s a new creature – old things are passed away behold all things are become new. When you read Galatians 1:23-24 the Bible tells us about a man called Paul. Once upon a time He was an original anti-Christ – every where he found Christians he would persecute them, throw them into prisons, kill them, but God grabbed him and turned him to somebody who began to preach the gospel he was fighting against. There was a time when Paul was talking in 1 Timothy 1:15, he called himself the chief of sinners but do you know that according to Acts 19:11-12 the Bible says God performed special miracles, special miracles, … not ordinary ones – special miracles by the hand of Paul. There are people here tonight that the Almighty God will turn to miracle workers for Him.
(Amen!)
If you read Luke 8:1-3 the Bible made it clear that Mary Magdalene, Jesus cast out 7 demons out of her and she ended up becoming a divine treasurer. When you read Mark 5:17-20, that mad man from whom Jesus drove out more than 2000 demons became an evangelist. I am here to tell you, it doesn’t matter what your situation may be now, Jesus can transform your life. That your son that you have lost hope over, that you are even praying that God will kill him – God is not going to kill him, He’s going to change him because He has the power to transform life. That mother-in-law that you know to be a witch, that you have been praying that the Almighty God should destroy, tonight you are going to pray that the Almighty God will transform her life… He transformed my life! That’s why I am what I am today. I’ve told you my story before but for the benefit of those of you who have never heard it, I will say it in closing now because very soon we will be praying.
Before I met the Lord Jesus Christ I had some problems. Problem number one I was a sportsman. Problem number 2 I was a good photographer. Combine those two in the life of any young man and you know he can have problems with girls. I am yet to meet a woman you say you want to take her picture and she will say no. Oh no they will say yes. Before you know it they are already adjusting their dress and from picture-taking to something else! I had so many girlfriends, I didn’t even know the number at a stage. But there was a particular one we did everything together and I won’t tell you what we did together – that’s none of your business! But after some time we became separated. She went her way, I went my way. She got married. I got married. Years passed and then I was transferred to University of Ilorin and her husband was transferred to Ilorin and she came with a baby that was born lame and somebody told her: "Oh there’s a Pastor up there. If you go to him, and he prays for your son, the son will walk." So she came to the mission house where I was staying. Say, I want to see the Pastor. She met some people at the verandah, and they told her – "He’s inside." She opened the door and saw me and we greeted. "Ah long time no see, how etc etc…" You know what kind of greeting that one will be. After the greetings she said, "I want to see the Pastor." I said, "Yes, can I help you?" She said, "I say, I want too see the Pastor…" I said, "I am the Pastor" She said, "You? You the Pastor? You will pray and God will answer?" Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!)
My God is here tonight to transform your life and transform it completely because He is a God of miracles. I know some of you lifted your hands when we were asking about those who want to change completely and become like Jesus Christ and I thank God for those hands which were lifted but there are some people I want to come forward no – those of you who are surrendering your life t Jesus Christ for the first time and you are not going to any gospel church already. You are giving your life to Jesus Christ for the first time. This is the first day you are deciding that I want Jesus to transform my life completely. I want you to begin to come now. And as you come begin to talk to Jesus Christ on your own and tell Him, "I am going out publicly to surrender my life to You. I know You can transform my life. If you can turn a witch to a divine treasurer, I know You can change my life! If you can change a mad man to an evangelist, I know You can change my life. If You are the One who saved Pastor Adeboye and You changed Him to what He is today, I know You can transform my life and I want to surrender my life to You. Now, I want such people to become to come now – you have to come very quickly because our time is going very fast. And as you come begin to talk to Jesus Christ and say, " I want You to save my soul. I want to surrender my life to You completely, absolutely." Begin to come now. But those of us who are already sure of our own salvation we are going to pray some prayers later. This is your day, don’t forget. The God of miracles is here. He’s going to perform the miracles of healings, miracles of fruitfulness, the miracles of deliverance, the miracles of prosperity, the miracles of promotion, the miracles of stilling storms. He’s going to do all that and much more but before we pray for ourselves, all of us who are already sure of our salvation, I want you to pray for these people who are coming forward. I want you to begin to pray for them that the Almighty God will save their souls..... And those of you who want to give your lives to Jesus Christ begin to come now. I’m going to count up to ten. As soon as I get to ten I will decide that you don’t want to come so I will stop waiting for you. And those of you already in front begin to pray; begin to call on Jesus Christ for the salvation of your soul. And those of you who are coming, I’ll begin to count now. 1.. 2… 3… 4… this is the day of salvation. Don’t miss this opportunity. 5 now! 6.. 7… If you know you are coming you have to hurry up. I know some of you are coming from a long distance but if you really mean business then you will move fast. We are not asking you to come to any man we are asking you to come to Jesus. Come to Him now, come and cry unto Him. Come and ask Him to save your soul. He’s waiting; He’s waiting right now. 8 now.... before the doors of mercy will close, hurry up. The Almighty God is waiting for you and as you come begin to talk to Him and say, "Father save my soul, forgive my sins, have mercy on me Lord, have mercy on me…." And those of us who are already sure of our salvation, please begin to pray for them, that the Almighty God will save their souls, that He will be merciful to them that He will cleanse them in His blood. Hurry up now because I am going to say 9…, 9.. . Hurry up before I get to 10. This is the day of salvation and the Lord is calling you. If you really mean business then you will come quickly and come and call on Him for the salvation of your souls and say, "Lord have mercy on me, wash me in Your blood, wash me in Your blood. Cleanse me completely tonight! Transform my life O Lord Let there be a tremendous change for the better!" The Great Saviour is here. He is ready to save your soul…
Now brethren let’s pray for them for another one minute that the Almighty God who saved our souls will save their own souls also, that the Almighty God will be merciful to them. This is your hour of salvation brethren. Open your mouth and call on the Almighty God. Say, "Saviour of mankind, save us Lord. Jesus have mercy on me. Cleanse me in Your blood. Save my soul tonight. Let me begin a brand new life in You tonight!" Open your mouth now and pray! Open your mouth and pray. Open your mouth and pray. Nobody can pray it better than you can pray for yourself! Call on the Almighty God and say Father , save my soul! I’ve come to be saved tonight. Transform my life O Lord! Transform my life completely!" Call on Him now! Call on Him! Call on Him! Blessed be Your Holy Name! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!)
I am about to pray for you, those of you already in front but you see, the spirit of God is still saying that there are still some people there who are sitting down in the crowd who have not surrendered their lives to Jesus Christ before today. I’m going to count from one to ten again and this time I’m going to be very fast. If they don’t come out quickly then whatever happens to you after that one is not my fault. Jesus is willing to save your souls but if you reject Him then it is up to you so if you are there, and you have never surrendered your life to Jesus or you are a backslider,, hurry up now and come forward. I will count up to 10 again. 1.. 2.. 3.. 4… now I see them running now .. 5… 6… where were you before?… 7… oh Thank You Jesus! Thank You Father! The Saviour is waiting for you and you are delaying Him! 8 now! There may never be another day like this in your life. God has brought you, He said now is the accepted time. He said today is the day of salvation. Tomorrow might be too late. 9 now … if you are already coming just keep coming but hurry up, hurry up! Any other person that is yet to come? If you are not yet on your way now, it may be too late for you but if you are already on the way, keep coming, make sure you get here before I stop praying. Glory be to God! Thank You my Father! I can see them coming. I’ll wait ten seconds more. I can see them coming up. Let’s give the Lord a big hand for these additional people. Thank You Jesus! Glory be to God! Thank You Father! Now let us pray Father, I want to thank You. I want to thank You because You are the Saviour of mankind and Your Word says – no man can come unto me unless my Father draws Him. Thank You for drawing these people and thank You that they have not refused Your drawing and as they have come, receive them in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) forgive their sins in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) wash them clean in Your blood in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Write their names in the Book of life and let them remain Your children forever in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) From now on Father every miracle they need give to them in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) and every miracle You will perform here tonight because they have given their lives to You now, give them their own in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Thank You my Father! and I pray that in Your Kingdom none of them will be found wanting. In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) Amen! Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) This is a time to talk to the Almighty God, quietly first before we pray together. It is not the time to fall asleep, it is a time you will talk to the Almighty God and say, God of miracles, tonight You must do my own. Let’s begin to talk to the Almighty God: God of miracles – you must do my own tonight"! And tell Him exactly what you want Him to do for you." Let’s talk to the Almighty God while our brothers are filling their cards… Lord we praise You.. God of miracles.. , may Your Name forever be glorified. We praise You, we praise You, we praise You! We know You can never fail – nothing too hard for You to do. Your children are crying to You today: Do our own too! Oh Yes Father! Move mightily in the lives of everyone here Lord. Let nobody leave without a mighty testimony. Thank You my Father! Blessed! Blessed! Blessed be the Name of the Lord! Thank You Jesus! Thank You Father! Praise You forever more In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) Let me hear you say Amen loud and clear.
Now for the next few minutes we want to pray some very violent prayers. This is the time to stand on your feet because this is the real moment you have been waiting for, The Lord will give you strength. I say the Lord will give you strength. Your first prayer tonight and if you like, you may pray it and if you like you may not pray it. You see several times God wants to move but certain things in the life of the individual will hinder God so you are going to call on God ,
"Anything in my life that will not allow you to perform miracles in my life tonight, Father send down Your fire and consume it completely. Anything in my life that will not allow You to do what you want to do for me . . Father, send down your fire! Consume it completely. Anything, whatever it may be that may hinder the working power of God, consume it tonight! Send down Your fire O Lord! Be the God that answers by fire. Let the fire come down and consume everything that can hinder Your miracle-working power in my life tonight!" Call Him He’s here! Ready to answer! He’s here! Ready to perform miracles, signs and wonders in your life! "Lord anything that may hinder the working power in my life – send down your fire Lord and consume it completely, consume it completely, consume it completely! Whatever it is , whether I know it or not, that may be in my life, that may want to hinder Your miracle-working power, today, in my life, Father send down Your fire and consume it! O Lord God Almighty! Send down Your Fire tonight! Consume everything that may want to hinder the flow of Your anointing in my life that Your Name might be glorified! Thank You Father! Blessed be the Name of the Lord! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) The second prayer is similar to it. Some people in their past, there are curses, evil covenants, sin of their parents that are hindering their present. So we are going to call to the Almighty God –
anything in my past, anything in my family, in my history that is disturbing my present, Jesus help me deal with it now! Everything in my past, disturbing my present, Father destroy! Help me deal with it! Every curse, every evil covenant, every problem that I inherited in my family, Father, help me destroy1 Everything that had been hindering my path, anything in my past that is hindering my present, any sin of my parents that may be disturbing me now, every curse or covenant that my father inherited, that they have passed on to me, Father help me destroy them! help me destroy them! Lord help me destroy them! help me destroy them! help me destroy them! Almighty God help me destroy them! You are the God of miracles there is nothing impossible for You! Help me Father! Help me Lord! Anything in my past that is disturbing my present, O Lord remove today, remove completely! Remove right now! Remove right now! Remove right now! Remove it right now! Thank You Jesus! Thank You Father! Anything in my past disturbing my present, wipe it away with Your blood Oh yes! Glory be to God! Thank You Father! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) Now you are going to call on the Almighty God and say,
God, I know You are the God of miracles, that there is nothing too hard for You. Don’t let my own be too hard tonight. Don’t let my own be too hard! Cry to the Almighty God. I know You are the God of miracles. Lord, there is nothing You cannot do! Don’t let my own be too hard! Don’t let my own be too hard! Don’t let my own be too hard! Don’t let my own be too hard! Don’t let my own be too hard! Lord please - Don’t let my own be too hard! I know there is nothing too hard for You! Don’t let my own be too hard! Don’t let my own be too hard! No, no, no, no Lord. Tonight, do my own too! I know You are the God of miracles. I know with You all things are possible! Don’t let my own be too hard Lord! Only two prayer points more and then I will pray with you. First one:
Lord, everything in my life that is causing people to say where is Your God? remove it now! Now! Everything that is bringing any reproach to You Lord, in my life, whatever it may be! Father, remove it please, remove it now Father! Everything – physical, Material, mental, marital, spiritual, financial – anything in my life, that is causing people to say where is your God? Father remove it today, remove it, remove it Lord! remove it Lord! remove it Lord! Everything in my life that may be laughing at Your power Lord, everything that is bringing any form of reproach to Your Name in my life, in my home, in the Church of God, Father remove it! That Your Name might be glorified! Thank You Jesus! … Thank You Jesus! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) The last prayer, collectively, before you pray your own private prayer…. The Bible says that since the day of John the Baptist the Kingdom of God suffereth violence and the violent have taken it by force. You have given your life to Jesus. you have demonstrated your love for Him by being here since 5pm last night because you love Jesus. The Bible says if you submit yourself to God you can resist the devil and he will flee from you.So violently, with all your strength, you are going to command Satan to take his hands off you, off your family, off your business, off your church, off your village …
Satan.. Take off your hands off my life! I command you in the name of Jesus! Take your dirty hands off my body! Off my soul! Off my spirit! Off my family, off my wife, off my children! Off the church of God – take your dirty hands off Satan, I command you in the Name of Jesus! Take your dirty hands off my village, off my town, off my state, off my nation! Take your dirty hands off! I resist you in the mighty Name of Jesus! I come against you in the Name that is above every other name! I come against you in the Name at which every knee must bow! Satan take off your dirty hands, right now, right now, right now! Right now! Take your dirty hands off In the mighty name of Jesus! Satan take your dirty hands off! I command you in that Name that is above every other name. Satan take your dirty hands off – now! I command you! Loose your hold on my family – let them go! Loose your hold on the Church of God and let us go!. Loose your hold on me. Satan, I refuse to tolerate you any further. … take your hands off off my body, off my soul, off my spirit, off my finances – take your dirty hands off! I command you in the Name of Jesus – take your dirty hands off! Thank You Father! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) The next prayer, which is your own private prayer I would advise you to pray in your own mother tongue – the miracles you really want from God, tell God now. He’s here. Tell Him. Don’t speak it in a language somebody else will hear – say it in your own mother tongue. It’s between you and Him now – tell Him!
Lord God Almighty! Let my testimonies be full! Let my testimonies be full! Let my testimonies be full! Thank You Father! ….. In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) The Spirit of God ministered to me that before I pray for you that the Lord says we should love our neighbours as ourselves. Not only that but one will chase a thousand and two will put ten thousand to flight. I want you to join hands with the fellow next to you. Don’t pray for yourself now, you are going to pray for the fellow you are holding. Pray for the one on your right, the one on your left and say, Father, every miracle my brother, my sister needs – give to him right now! Father, every miracle that this your son needs, Father, every miracle that will make his joy be full – give to him! Father give to him! Almighty God – give to him! O my Lord and my Saviour, every desire of his heart, every miracle that will make his joy full give to him Lord, give to him Lord, give to him right now, right now, right now as I pray! That his joy may be full, that Your Name might be glorified in his life! Every miracle he needs Lord, give to him Lord, give to him, give to him now, give to him even as I am praying! Every miracle, every miracle that he must have so that his joy might be full give to him now! My Lord and my Saviour please give to him, give to him, give to him Lord and we will praise You for it. Thank You Father! Thank You Lord! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) Amen! Finally, Amen! I know you need prayers. I know God has done a lot in your life but I want you to know I need prayers too so before I pray for you you are going to pray for me first. Just stretch your hands and pray and say,
God of miracles, perform his own miracles too. Go ahead, pray for me! Pray fro me! Yes Lord.. Thank You Father! Answer the prayers of these Your saints Lord…. Take all glory tonight, we will praise You forever Blessed be Your Holy Name! Thank You my Father! Thank You Jesus! Glory be to Your Holy Name! Thank You Father! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) Right now I want to pray for you. I want you to lift your hands ready to receive. Let your Amen ring so that it will be heard in heaven and the devil will be frightened and he will let you go.
In the mighty Name of Jesus! In the powerful Name of Jesus! In the conquering Name of Jesus! Father, it is unto you that this multitude had gathered. The Bible says that You God that answers prayers, unto you shall all flesh come. They have come to You now – answer their prayers in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Daddy answer their prayers in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Every sickness, every disease, let it vanish now in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!). The miracles of healings, perform right now in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) The miracles of deliverance from any of evil forces, perform in the life of Your children in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Any form of barrenness, whether physical or spiritual, let it end tonight in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Let it end tonight in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Now before you sit down – we have less than one hour to go and then we will release ourselves. Don’t worry God will go with you any time you go. When demons see you coming they will run. I say when demons see you coming they will run. From now on the glory of God will be over your body forever. (Amen!) The glory of God will be over your life forever. I want you to check physically, those who have been healed. The reason we always want to come forward and show how God had healed us is so that the devil may not be able to steal our healing from us. You see Jesus Christ said if you will confess me before men, I will confess you before my Father in heaven. If God has healed you, you are going to come forward so we can rejoice together. We might even be able to take one or two testimonies it depends on how the Holy Spirit directs. If you are not yet sure of the healing – no problem, we haven’t gone yet but don’t lie – if He has healed you, you come forward and say He has healed you. If He hasn’t healed you wait till He does it. So I am going to ask the band to play … we will dance, check our bodies and as you check your body, if you know you are one of the people He has healed then you become to come forward – that should take about five minutes. So let the band begin to play and then you do the checking… He’s a miracle-working God….
Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) Now I rejoice with those of you in front – you can be sure your miracles will be permanent. (Amen!) But I know what my Father did – I know that tonight He has healed tens of thousands. So I want to tell those of you who are hiding – those of you that He healed and you are hiding – I will count up to ten, after ten I will tell Daddy that you don’t appreciate what He has done. So I will ask Him to take it back. Those of you that He has healed and you are hiding there, I will count to ten and then I will tell Him: They say You didn’t heal them so take it back." One, two, three, four – the elder says, the one that you have done good to that he will not say thank you is like when a robber has robbed you. I know what my Father had done tonight, it is something, the kind we have not even seen it before and now you want to sit down there and pretend as if nothing had happened! No problem. No problem at all. I will just tell Him you did not appreciate what He has done. I tell Him to take it back – no problem. Very simple. So six now, seven …… All right this is more like it! Now what we’re going to do – I ‘m going to ask the Pastors to go quickly among these people and just listen to the testimony of a few of them, especially those that have to do with the specific cases that were mentioned. Maybe we can just take three of them. Quickly, let’s do that very quickly. Then while they are doing that, the rest of us that are out there because I expect that all of us will be out by now. I want you to talk to God – those of you that don’t have a testimony yet and say: Father, Before I leave this ground, I want to have a testimony – quietly talk to Him, those of you who are not yet out. Now those of you that have been healed, if your case was mentioned particularly as the ministers of God come, beckon to them and tell them what it is. We might be able to take just three before we go to the next item and then we begin to round up. The reason I don’t ask the band to play is so that the ministers might be able to hear what you are saying. But those of us who are out there, who are still saying, "Ah it looks as if the pain is still there, or the sickness is still there… talk to God: "Before I leave this ground my testimony must be complete. It has to be complete." Pastors please let us move fast, let us, move fast! Particularly this front row, let’s interview them quickly. Let’s hear what God has done for them. Let’s do it in about 3 minutes Then as soon as you find a special one that you think we should listen to, move that one aside and let somebody just bring us about 3 so that we can glorify God together and then I’m going to pray for those of you who have come forward because you have openly confessed what God has done. I’m going to ask Him to make your miracle permanent. Thank You Jesus! There’s somebody here who couldn’t speak before and he can speak now. Ohh! Glory be to God! Well maybe you tell us the story you brought him … since he was born he could not talk. How old is he? He’s about 19-20 years. You brought him tonight? Yes, I brought him and when you pray finish and I call him, "Can you call Adeboye?" He call it. I say, "Can you call Baba?" He call it. Okay… make it loud – mama…Jesu… Alleluia! ..Your miracle will be permanent in Jesus Name Amen Glory be to God! Let’s give the Lord another big round of applause Thank You Jesus! All right let’s hear this brother’s story. He seemed to be the first one to get a miracle. Let’s hear briefly – what was happening, what was it that happened? Praise the Lord! Thank God for today. I’ve always been suffering from this blood from the anus – it has been a thing of ten years. Each time I want to come for the Holy Ghost Service, in fact, it’s always draws me back. It has happened to me today such that instead of coming directly for the service, I had to go home and clean up and I’m believing God God has healed me. He said he has been having blood from his anus for the past ten years and now the Almighty God has done it. Your miracle will be permanent in Jesus name. Congratulations! In your own case I know God has healed you but I’m just looking at how will they believe… anyway…. All right let’s hear your own.. very briefly.. please ma. Praise the Lord! Sir, my own I was suffering from diabetic so anytime I eat bread I will be urinating. So today because of I never eat anything so I took bread from my wife – about four loaves and ate with tea so after I finish it. In fact my stomach, the thing is just disturbing me, disturbing me but after the prayer the thing ceased so Glory be to God!. Amen! Let’s hear your own very quickly. When I came to the crusade ground, I was bleeding from my anus. Whenever I have pain in my anus, I always bleed and even when I came to the crusade ground I went to check myself, I was bleeding but when our Daddy said, somebody’s bleeding from the anus, I claimed it and even when they said we should come outside, I didn’t come out side I first went to check myself. When I check myself I was not bleeding and there’s no pain again. Praise the Lord! (Amen!) Praise the Lord! When I was coming here I couldn’t walk, in fact some people I was coming with they were holding me by the hand and they were waiting for me. I was sort of crawling and in great pain because I had dislocation of the joint and X-ray was done _ I happen to be a Chief Nursing Officer with Anambra State Ministry of Health so the doctor sent me for an X-ray and they discovered there was dislocation of my hip. So I said I must be here. I went to Shagamu and I managed to find my way to this place so when I reached I couldn’t stand. I had to use a chair to support myself – 2 chairs – and some people were saying – leave this chair. I said, ‘I can’t stand" So when my case was mentioned there’s a woman here with dislocation of the hip and that she was In great pain, she came in here with great pain – the people around me said I should jump up, so I started to jump up and I was able to dance. Oh Glory be to God! and since then I have got my healing. I can now bend. I can now dance… Congratulations. Thank You Jesus! Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) The man with the liver problem – where is he? We’ve heard enough from… I told you that when God says there is someone here.. there could be many… there’s another person with blood from the anus, I think we’ve seen that one, we’ve seen so many… your own is the liver problem? Kidney problem? Let’s hear what happened. Praise the Lord! It was when Daddy was saying about somebody that has a kidney problem, so that time I was shaking where I was praying because I came from the hospital to this place. The scan, the whole thing I went for, they said that two of my kidneys were rotten that I had to be sent abroad, so when I got to this place from the hospital, so when you mentioned it I started seeing myself bathing, and I was bathing and bathing and looking for water to drink. At a point in time I had to feel very free because before I can’t stand but since the ministration I’ve been standing and praising the Lord! Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! Any other one nearby? We can have 2 or 3 more. Are you enjoying Jesus? Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) These are all the people that the pastors brought. You don’t want us to hear them? I know I said two or three. I know I said two or three but when God says 2 0r 3 it could be more than that… what is his case. Mmmh! we can hear that too… Praise the Lord! Before I came for the programme I was having a very serious pain because I ‘d been sick for some time. And when I came in the man of God was saying there’s someone here coming in to this place and the pain is at the right side and the pain has just left him and the place was swollen up but immediately the man of God was talking I felt a relief but IO did not say anything the first time but I wait to see if actually I had been relieved and I began to use my hand to press the place and I could not find any pain and I began to say Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! I give glory to Almighty God. I am a medical practitioner by profession. Since 1995 to be precise I donated blood then. The blood was screened and they picked this hepatitis virus. Ever since then I have been having these terrible pains.. this is where the liver is located… I’ve been having these pains especially after eating anything that contains fat. It is one testimony I’ve been looking forward to sharing. Recently I was introduced to a drug marketed by Glaxo-Wellcome, they call the drug Selix Lamovedine but it is very expensive, N7,000. I cannot really afford it now, even as a doctor, so I’ve been looking forward to God that look God You just have to do this miracle so when I even saw the Millennium Harvest I just prayed that I will come to this ground and I will go home with my testimony. So I was sitting right there when our Father in the Lord mentioned that there is a person here with liver problem. Instantly I just felt very cold – as if you pour ice pack – very cold, very sharp cold comfort and since then the pain has disappeared. I cannot see anything again. Congratulations. And the pain will never return. (Amen!) Okay. You want me to take one more – we will only get the full proof after some time but go ahead let’s have the testimony.. Glory be to God! That was the case of someone who had had epilepsy for a long time and the Almighty God has done it tonight.
Now I know there are several other cases here. There is no way we can take all your testimonies. Maybe next time we will tell the pastors to bring more than 3. There were several cases of eyes that the Almighty God touched. Is there any of you among those of you waving their hands who used to use glasses and you don’t use glasses any more now. Let me hear you shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) There were several cases that the Almighty God called but we can’t remember them all. God has done this – this physical healing to let you know that if He can do that of the physical, He can do that of the financial, He can do that of deliverance, He can do that of promotion, He can do that of fruitfulness, so all those cases that the Almighty God has mentioned, we shall hear your testimonies very soon. But I want to pray for those of you who have come forward – My Father and my God! because these people came forward, like the woman with the issue of blood came forward and said, yes Lord I am the one you healed and you said to her, Daughter your faith has made you whole, I pray that not only will these people be healed, they shall be whole in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) I pray Lord that their miracles should last forever in Jesus’ Name! (Amen!) Thank You my Father! In Jesus’ mighty Name we have prayed! (Amen!) Let somebody shout Alleluia! (Alleluia!) You cannot come to such a great gathering like this without going home with something tangible. So before I pray the final prayers for you I am going to ask the Almighty God to anoint your handkerchiefs so that you can have something that whenever you need the power of the Almighty God, you need the anointing of the Almighty God you have something to use. So that your relatives who could not come you have something to lay on them and command the devil to leave them alone but before we do that we ant to thank the Almighty God for what He has done – it is our practice, it is acceptable practice that when God has been good to us we will say thank you to Him, so the ushers will come round and we are going to give our thanksgiving offering to the Almighty – with joy, with rejoicing, we will give our thanksgiving offering to the Lord. We will sit down first so that it will be easier for them to reach us because we are so many but even as we are sitting down we will be dancing on our seats and when we had finished, when the ushers say yes we have gone round then together we will dance for just a minute or two to say God, thank you.. I want you to know one thing – during the last year Holy Ghost Festival it was as we were doing the final dancing that a boy who was on a wheelchair got up and began to run – so even now as we are about to begin to thank God, your miracles can still happen and you can even get additional miracles – the bag the ushers will use is this white one with Holy Ghost Festival written on it, so don’t put your offering in any other one other than that. The band will play. We will rejoice before the Lord. When we finish we will dance together and then I will pray for you and the Name of the Lord will be glorified as we begin to go.. All right over to you band…. Amen! Now, I’m not asking you to go back. I am enjoying what you are doing. My Father in heaven is enjoying what you are doing! Just do it gently… Alleluia! Now you are not the only one who will dance. I’m going to dance too. As long as I have these two legs, I’m going to dance for Him. ….. Let somebody shout Alleluia!
(Alleluia!) Pastor E. A. Adeboye
