In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Amen.

Well let somebody shout hallelujah.

The winning side is the shouting side.

Okay; that is better.

Shake two or three people and tell them: I am born to win

And then you may please be seated.

As usual as we take our text from Romans chapter 8 from verse 31 to 39:

31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

33 Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Tonight we will be concentrating on verse 37 – ‘Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.’

Tell your neighbour I am more than a conqueror.

But before we go to the main programme tonight, we will want to, as usual, give few minutes to those who are yet to surrender their live to Jesus Christ.

We want to share with them the basic reason why they need to be born again urgently, urgently.

And that basic reason is because they need peace.

And we will be talking about three basic type of peace that they must have urgently and therefore they must surrender their live to Jesus Christ tonight.

The first kind of peace is Peace with God.

Why?

Psalm 7 verse 11 says God is angry with the wicked every day.

Every sinner is in trouble because God is angry with the wicked every day.

Proverbs chapter 16 verse 4 says the Lord made all things for Himself, ye even the wicked for the day of evil.

In other words, if you are sinner and you are not running quickly to Jesus Christ, you have been made reserved for the day of evil.

Romans 5 verse 1 says we are justified by faith and the moment we are justified by faith we have peace with God through Jesus Christ.

The moment you surrendered your life to Jesus Christ you have peace with God; the quarrel between you and God is over; until then God is angry with you on daily basis.

The second kind of peace that you must have urgently is Peace in God.

In John chapter 16 verse 33, Jesus Christ said that in this world there will be tribulation but if you are in Him you will have peace;

He said this thing I have spoken unto you that in Me ye might have peace because in the world there will be tribulations.

If a man is not in Christ and you hear all the troubles happening all over the world your heart will shake

But those of us who are in Christ when we see the worse - the rumours of wars, the floods, the hurricanes, the fire outbreaks, we look forward and know that our redemption is near - we have peace in God because we belong to Him.

In John chapter 14 verse 27, Jesus Christ Himself said peace I live with you; My peace I give you, not the kind of peace that the world gives but the peace in God is made available to us.

And the third kind of peace that you must have urgently which you can only get through Jesus Christ is called the Peace of God.

Philippians 4 verse 7 says the peace of God passes all understanding;

It is the peace that can keep your heart and mind stable no matter what is happening.

Problems right and left, a lot of bad news everywhere but if you have the peace of God you will remain stable; your blood pressure will remain normal; everything will remain cool – because the peace of God passes all understanding.

Peace with God - that settles your quarrel with God; no more anger of the Almighty God facing you on a daily basis; the Peace in God and the Peace of God

You can have all three when you surrender your life to Jesus Christ.

Because the Bible says in Romans chapter 14 verse 17 that the kingdom of God is not meat and drink but it is in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

So if you give your life to Him you will begin to enjoy peace.

It does not matter what is happening you will be at rest because you know that there is no more quarrel between you and God;

You know that He has given you peace that is ruling your heart and then you have the peace that the world cannot understand.

But as long as you refuse to surrender your life to Him the peace will elude you.

And so I am going to ask those of you who are here and have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ and you want to do so;

You want to have peace with God, you want to have peace in God, you want to have the peace of God, I will ask you to come forward very quickly so that I can pray for your salvation and you can begin to enjoy the peace of God that passes all understanding.

I am going to count from one to ten I know some of you are very far away so you will have to move very very fast;

By the time I say ten if you are not already standing before me I will assume that it is either you are already saved or you have made up your mind that you don’t need the peace of God.

I am counting now:

One, two,

When you come to Jesus Christ you have come to the Prince of peace and He will make His peace available to you.

Three, four, 

And those who are clapping for Jesus you will never lack peace.

Five, six, seven,

Any hand that is clap for Jesus can never withered.

Eight,

Come to Him and let your peace begin; hurry up.

I can see those of you in the old arena and I know you are a bit far from the altar but hurry up the Lord is waiting for you.

And those of you in the main new arena hurry up because we are already at the last count down.

Nine,

Thank you very much.

Now, those of you who are already in front and those of you who are on the way talk to the Almighty God now: ask Him to please save your soul, ask Him to please forgive your sins; tell God I don’t want You to be angry with me anymore I have come to surrender my life to you; please Lord God Almighty I want to be at peace with You, have mercy on me.

Cry unto Him

I have come to surrender my life unto You, I want to enjoy peace with You, I want to enjoy the peace that is in You and I want to enjoy the peace that comes from You; I want to be at peace with You and I want to be at peace in every area of my life; save my soul O Lord and I will save You for the rest of my life.

Let us stretch our hands to them those of us who remain and wish these our new brothers and sisters salvation from the Almighty God that the One who saved our souls will save their souls also. Let us go ahead and call on the Almighty God for them. And let the Counselors hurry up and attend to these people because we will soon be praying for salvation.

Anyone still on the way please hurry up, hurry up, hurry up.  God bless you as you come. This is your day of salvation, don’t miss this opportunity. Thank You Father.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

My Father and my God we just want to say thank You. Thank You for Your word and thank You for these people who have responded to the altar call, they have come to you Lord please receive them in Jesus’ name; have mercy on everyone of them; save their souls; please watch them in your blood and write their names in the book of life. And please Lord God Almighty from now on let Your anger towards them cease, let them become members of Your family and whenever they call on You please answer them by fire.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Amen.

Those of you in front let me hear you shout hallelujah.

Good.

I want to assure you that from now on by the grace of God I will be praying for you.

So I am going to need your names, your address and your prayer request.

The Counselors will give you a card which I want you to fill very quickly and return to them and I promise you that from now on by God’s grace I will be praying for you.

God bless you.

We will wait for you till you finish before we proceed.

Thank You Lord.

Romans chapter 8 verse 37 says we are more than conquerors…

We are created equal; all men are created equal but we are not born equal.

Created equal but not born equal.

The day the baby of an Elephant is born that very day is already bigger than a rat.

Is that correct?

The Elephant is a creature of God, the rat is a creature of God, they are both created equal but they are not born equal.

The elders have a saying they said the Elephant never gives birth to a dwarf; the child of an Elephant must be like an elephant

It is a settled matter.

Meaning what?

Some people are born to win and some people are born to lose.

Romans chapter 9 you can read it from verse 10 to 15 (Romans chapter 9:10 to 15) – two children, twins, in the womb of the same mother; they were not yet born, they have not done anything – good or evil, and God had already said Jacob I love, Esau I hate.

Before they were born!

One was born to win and the other was born to lose.

Is there any winner in the house today?

If you are born to win let me hear you shout hallelujah.

Romans chapter 9 verse 17 says Pharaoh was born to lose.

He became big, he became a great king, he was considered the ruler of the whole world at time but God said at the end I Am going to drown you to show the world there is somebody called the King of kings.

Some are born to lose, some are born to win which is one of the major reasons why everybody should come to Christ because even if you are born to lose and you come to Christ the story will change

Because the Bible says in 2Corinthians 5 verse 17, if any man be in Christ old things have passed away, (how many things become new?) all things become new.

Every true child of God in this house let me hear shout hallelujah.

Now, I hope you will pay attention because this is one of those nights when destinies balance and we are not here to joke.

Born to win means born to fight

(Laughing)

I am laughing because there is an elders’ proverb that says a man spoke and the thunder rumbled and he said God as confirmed what I just said.

One more time if you are winner in the house let me hear you shout hallelujah.

You see when you read we are more than conquerors that should tell you straight away this is very serious matter.

We don’t use the word conquer when we are discussing games;

When one team plays another team and one loses and the other wins we say this team defeated this team.

You conquer in war.

The God we serve is not a civilian

Get that point clear

Exodus 15 verse 3 says the Lord is a man of war.

Psalm 24 verse 7 to 10 says He is mighty in battle.

Don’t let anybody deceive you, life is war.

From the day you are born till the day you end it is war;

The elders say that is why a new born baby cries.

As soon as he is born, he says hey, the battle begins and he keeps fighting until finally when death come and say now the battle is over.

Are you a Christian?

The Bible made it clear; 2Timothy chapter 2 verse 3 to 4 says you are chosen to be a soldier of Christ.

When you gave your life to Jesus you have just joined an army, the army of Christ.

In 1Timothy chapter 6 verse 12, says fight the good fight of faith.

We are in a war brother, we are a war sister; glory be to God we shall win.

The Bible says in 2Corinthians 10 verse 3 to 4, it says even though we live in the flesh we do not war after the flesh;

We are fighting a battle

And went on to say in verse 4 – weapons of our warfare are not carnal;

You don’t take weapons to Sunday school class, weapons is for fighting - warfare.

But like I told you I think in January or at least earlier this year – the war or the fight is fixed in our favour.

Oh before we begin to fight at all we have already won.

Oh! You saw a little bit of it tonight I was not surprised.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth; the earth was without form and void and there was darkness and then God said let there be light.

And I decree right now in the life of every one of you, from this moment onward let there be light.

And the Bible says the light shines in darkness and darkness cannot overcome it – it is impossible for darkness to overcome light; we are winners.

The Bible says if God be for us who can be against us?

We are winners

The fight is fixed in our favour.

As one of my children mentioned - one of the people who spoke – 1John chapter 4 verse 4 said ye are of God, little children…

We are little but we are of God and we have overcome them even before we begin to fight we have overcome; because greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.

I am going to ask you one more time; how many of you believe without any doubt that I am born to win?

Then shout a big hallelujah to God.

And then that means get ready to fight and I am going to mention just a few points because of another meeting I have later on.

You must fight sickness.

Do I hear amen to that?

The moment you give your life to Jesus Christ you are equipped to fight sickness and win.

Ask the Doctors they will tell you that the way God created you, He put inside your blood soldiers - I think they called them glycosides

Inside your blood they are soldiers and the assignment is to fight anything that is not created to make you healthy.

That is why when you have a cut in any part of your body, blood rushes down.

Why?

Hey!

Where they are coming from they want to flush it out and after some time when they feel they have flushed out the invaders the blood clots; it forms a shield to prevent anything from outside coming in through the wound.

That is the way God made it.

And many at times when for one reason or the other maybe the intruder came in through your mouth, maybe you ate something you should not eat and so it get into your body and it begins to do some damage;

The soldiers in your blood will rise up and begin to fight and in the process of fighting they generate heat that is when your temperature begins to rise.

You are born to win.

Ask the Doctors that under proper conditions, the body will always heal itself that when they give you drugs at all it is to quicken the fight.

Oh you will say but we heard that some people died.

Yes sir

It is appointed onto man to die; everybody will die.

Hebrew chapter 9 verse 27 says it is appointed unto man once to die.

We are all going to die that is not what we are talking about.

I mean Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead

Where is Lazarus now?

He still died.

And I am sure some of you will begin to say we heard so and so die, so and so die, mind your own business; it is you we are talking about now.

As the elders will say falala – mind your business.

You must fight any sickness that is trying to send you to early grave because the purpose of sickness is to see to it if you will allow, if they can cause you to die before your time.

Tell your neighbour I refuse to die before my time.

Do I have a choice in the matter?

Listen, Philippians chapter 1 verse 23 to 26, Paul said I found myself in a strait between two opinions; I want to go and be with the Lord which is far better but I see that there are some of you here who still need me and he said I will stay.

I assure you in the Name that is above every other name I am not living this world until I finish my assignment.

What about you?

Because he said in 2Timothy chapter 4 (the same Paul now), 2Timothy chapter 4 verse 6 to 8 he said I am ready to go

Why?

I have already fought a good fight, I have finished my course and I can now go.

You must fight sickness, don’t let sickness kill you before your time.

In 2Kings 20 verse 1 to 10, God Himself sent a prophet, true prophet to go and tell King Hezekiah: put your house in order;

Hezekiah said God I am not ready to go yet.

God told the prophet go and tell him I give him additional fifteen years.

Is there anybody here today who does not want to die before his time?

If you are such a fellow let me hear you shout hallelujah.

Some of you will remember the story of Papa Okeowo who came to see me at the age of 84

And said man of God there was a prophet, I think when he was forty years old, who prophesied to me and told me everything that will happen in my life, everything; but he said at the age of eight-four I will die.

And everything the prophet said happened and now there are two weeks to go that is why I have come to the holy land here to die here.

I said Papa do you really want to die?

He said no but the prophet said…

Ehen ehen, forget what the prophet said.

You, do you really want to die?

He said no.

I decree tonight prophecy that is contrary to your wellbeing I cancel in Jesus name.

I say Papa I know you just given your life to Jesus Christ not too long ago

He said yes

Are you ready to serve God now?

He said, Oh with all my heart

Then, who is talking about death?

He said the prophet said.

I said forget the prophet.

By the grace of God there is bigger prophet now

I said Papa you are not going anywhere.

Papa left this world just few days before he became hundred and he send to me to say tell him to please come.

Papa said thank you very much I think I want to go now.

I said no problem daddy.

It is written brother, it is written my beloveth children, according to Psalm 118 verse 17, I shall not die (say it loud and clear) but live to declare the works of God.

I read in the newspaper – was it this week or last week – a woman had been in a comma for twenty-seven years; unconscious for twenty-seven years and then she woke up.

Only God knows how many times her parent must have prayed: God let her die so that we can continue with our live.

The woman refuses to die.

Lift your hands to the Almighty God and say: Father, I will not die before my time.

I join my faith with yours and I say amen.

You must fight sickness – fight it in your life, fight it in the life of others; lay hands on the sick, command sickness to leave them; lay your hands on your children; tell sickness leave my children alone.

When the time comes to die that is a settled matter there is nothing we can do about that.

The elders say we can cure sickness we cannot cure death;

We all know that, but I will not die before my time – that is the point.

I am not dying before my time!

And then you must fight over poverty – it is a battle, you have to fight over poverty.

The Bible says in Deuteronomy 15 verse 1, it said there will always be poor people in the land;

It did not say you were the one;

It did not say you will be one of them.

Open your mouth loud and clear and say I refuse to die poor.

You know in Leviticus 25 verse 35, the Bible says if your brother should waxen poor - if your brother becomes poor, help him.

Now which one do you preferred – the one who is helped or the one who is helping?

The one that they have to use second hand cloth to cover or the one who is buying the cloth – which one do you prefer?

Say it one more time I refuse to die poor.

Now, the fight against sickness is fixed because Jesus had already made provision – by His stripes you were healed.

The fight against poverty is already fight because in 2Corinthians chapter 8 verse 9 says He became poor that you might become rich.

He became poor that you might become rich – He has paid for your wealth.

In 3John verse 2, He said clearly I wish above all things that you prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.

It is the wish of God that you prosper.

In the Name that is above every other name, it does not matter what anybody may say you will prosper.

John chapter 10 verse 10, Jesus said it Himself, I have come that you may have life and have it more abundantly.

It is fixed, the fight against poverty it is fixed in your favour.

In Psalm 92 verse 12 to 14, the Bible says that the righteous shall flourish; it didn’t say you will manage to survive.

It says you will flourish.

The Bible says in Deuteronomy 28 verse 11 to 12, it said you will be lending to nations and you won’t borrow.

I decree in the Name that is above every other name you will not die in poverty.

So fight poverty; make up your mind, don’t accept it, don’t let them deceive you;

For years the devil tries to deceive Christians telling them money is the root of all evil;

That is not what the Bible said; it said ‘the love’ of money, not money; you need money to do things for God.

I was telling them at European convention of our churches that we just had couple of days ago where forty nine nations gathered for convention.

I told them of something that happened years ago when I was in particular part of the country here and I wanted to preach on their television

And because I was a lecturer at the University they find it difficult to say to me that I cannot preach and so they decided that they will discourage me by charging exorbitantly.

I said I needed so many hours per month.

They said you must pay so much per hour

I said I will pay.

They were surprised.

After one month when they saw that suddenly the programme had become the talk of the town, they called me and they said that I cannot continue.

I said why not?

They said the money I was paying was too little and they said they want to double the money

I said I will pay.

After the second month they called me and they said they want to triple the money

I say I will pay.

Raise your hand to the Almighty God and say: everything I need to serve You provide abundantly.

You must fight poverty.

So do what God says to make sure that poverty is defeated in your life because you are born to win.

Let me hear you say amen loud and clear.

The Bible says sow and you will reap; give and you shall be giving.

The Bible is clear.

But then it also says you must be diligent

Proverbs 22 verse 29 says seest thou a man diligent in his business? he will stand before kings and not before mean men.

I have always told the story of a young man

He was educated but he could not get a job and he said I refuse to die in poverty.

He applied, nobody gave him a job.

He said but I am a good cook

So he got a little bit of money and bought some beans, got a bottle of oil and got one location at one corner somewhere in Lagos and started frying akara.

He is a man, but he began to fry akara and he knew Lagos people, as soon as they saw akara at the road side they began to buy his akara;

Before you knew it he saved money to buy a motorcycle and he began to ride okada.

From the money from one motorcycle he bought the second one so he became an employer of labour.

In the Name that is above every other name, the idea that will lead you to a million God will give you very soon.

And then you must willing to fight the battle over bondage.

Thank You Father.

The Lord asks me to tell somebody that your strength will return steadily.

Daddy says the fellow will understand, whoever the fellow his; but He asked me to tell you that the answer is yes.

Do you know that the battle for your freedom, total freedom, and total deliverance is fixed?

How?

Because God said in James chapter 4 verse 7, He said if you will submit yourself to God, if you resist the devil he will flee from you.

If I can defeat the devil himself, then who are demons?

Demons are just servant of Satan, Satan is the boss and God says I can cause Satan to run.

The Bible says all you need to do is submit to God and then you can tell the devil to run and it will run.

I used the word ‘it’ even though some people prefer to call ‘he’

But you must be determined to resist the devil.

And the Bible says you are to resist the devil steadfastly – it is a fight.

1Peter chapter 5 verse 8 to 9, says you are to resist the devil steadfastly.

You see, because if you don’t resist the devil he will stay and become a thorn in your flesh.

Number chapter 33 verse 55 God said to the children of Israel any of the enemy in the land that you fail to root out will stay and become thorns in your flesh.

The worst part of it is that if you don’t resist the devil he will now begin to resist you.

When you go through the scriptures; if you read Joshua chapter 11 verse 22, it is in Gath that children of Israel allows some giants to stay;

By the time we get to 1Samuel chapter 17 verse 1 to 16, Goliath came from the same Gath to terrorize the children of Israel.

I want to encourage every one of you here tonight every giant in your life must go tonight.

Don’t deal with one giant and leave the others

Because in 2Samuel chapter 21 verse 15 to 22, the Bible tells us that Goliath has four brothers and they all came later after David defeated Goliath, the other four came later, they showed up; one of them would have kill David but somebody helped.

Tonight you and I are going to face every goliath that may be left in our lives and they must go tonight in Jesus’ name.

If you discover that things are not going the way they should go, you then know that it is the devil that is resisting you.

You are not making progress the way you should be making progress, you then know that it is the devil that is resisting you.

When you are reading your books you understand everything and when you get to the examination hall you cannot remember anything that is not natural that is the devil.

What everybody is doing and they are succeeding, you tried to do and you are failing that is not natural there are forces you cannot see at work and you are born to win.

You won’t fail again.

No more defeat in Jesus name.

I told you, some of you are old enough you will remember a story

We held a programme in Akure; we used to call it Christ Redeemer’s Congress in those days.

We finished the programme and we were all going rejoicing, we have had a wonderful time and a man blocked my way and said sir you cannot go.

I said but we have finished; we have prayed;

He said no no you are not going anywhere.

Haa! Okay.

If I am not going anywhere, what is the problem?

He was successful business man; he had a factory but all of a sudden everything broke down.

All the machines refuse to work and he spent all he had and he borrowed so much from his friends that when the friends saw him coming they run

They are not asking him for what he borrowed but they don’t want him to borrow more; so when they saw him coming they run.

I decree in the Name that is above every other name you will never borrow again.

Things got so bad that there was no food in the house and the children had no food for days and the mother could not bear the agony of these children she cry all the time and so the mother became mental.

He had no money to take the woman to hospital so he took her to one baba’lawo.

He said you are not going anywhere my problem must be solve today.

And in the name of the One who sent me before tomorrow money every one of you will sing a song of victory.

Then, okay that is alright.

I say stretch out your hands and he stretched out his hands;

I lay my hands in his hands and I say in the mighty name of Jesus your hands are anointed go and lay your hands on your wife etcetera etcetera and he left.

He got home and went straight to his wife laid the hands on her and the woman jumped up like somebody coming out of a sleep, and said what am I doing here?

Haa! this thing is working.

He ran to his machine, lay hands on the machine and the machine began to work immediately.

The next time I saw him he was riding a brown new car.

In the Name that is above every other name, every force blocking your way shall be move away today in Jesus name.

Let me just mention one more so that we will have time to pray before we go to other things we want to do.

What about victories over attackers?

People who are just attacking you;

I mean you heard the testimony of one of our children that was made chairman of one something and some people just decided to attack.

You know there are some people who just love to attack you simply because you are succeeding; we are going to deal with them tonight.

Thank You Father.

The Lord said there is someone here, He said you used to be extremely happy and said but things changed; God asked me to tell you I will restore.

I think this is my own; so let me say amen to it before I tell you.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight; He said the people you have helped will begin to come back to bless you.

Thank You Lord.

Daddy says there is someone here, He said where you have failed your children will succeed.

What about victory over attackers?

Some people just love to attack you because you are succeeding; don’t worry yourself the fight is fixed.

Because Isaiah 54 verse 17 says there is no weapon formed against you that shall prosper.

It is already settled even before you begin to fight at all; there weapons God said will not prosper.

But take note: He said in Isaiah 54 verse 15, He said surely they will gather together but not by Me – I Am not the one gathering these people against you;

And then God said whosoever shall gather against you shall fall for your sake.

Some people have always says why don’t you do something about your enemies?

There is no need.

If anything at all, I should be praying to God to be merciful because says He will deal with them

Those who gather together against you shall for your sake.

I am not the one who said so.

He said I will deal with them.

He said in another place, He said don’t worry yourself My son, He said vengeance is mine I will repay.

And if you have ever seen God fight you will be afraid for your enemies.

The elders have a saying, they said when God decide to fight for you, you that is fighting for you will become frightened.

Go through the scriptures; if only these people will read the Bible they will stay away from you, they won’t bother you.

Because in Numbers 16 verse 1 to 34, some people gathered together against Moses, the ground swallows them alive.

That is very frightened.

Somebody said don’t you understand the meaning of Psalm 23 verse 5?

Psalm 23 verse 5 says thou prepareth a table before me (where?) in the presence of my enemy.

He said how do you think that happens?

He paralyses them.

When God want to deal with your enemies He will paralyse them;

When He wants to deal with your enemies He sould cause them to die early, the ground will swallow them;

Or (because some people will say that’s in the Old Testament; I will show you one in the New Testament) when somebody tries to hinder you from doing the work of God, God could give that fellow enough problems.

Acts of the Apostles chapter 13 verse 6 to 12, Paul was preaching and there was this fellow who was saying that is not true;

After sometime Paul said, okay, since you don’t want me to do the work that God called to do, how about you becoming blind – thank God Paul added for awhile.

God can give enough problem to those who want to hinder that they won’t even have time for you at all.

I can talk to you, I can tell you example upon examples.

I mean of recent I heard that one prophet - he called himself prophet - that he prophesied I will die very soon.

Haha!

When I heard smiled and I spoke the kind of grammar that we used to speak when I was at Nsukka in the 1960s – “I said wettin I do you for”.

What did he say I have done to him?

I don’t know him, our path have not crossed and he said I am going to die!

And so people said well what are going to do about it?

I said nothing; that is already settled.

I will tell you one story:

Several years ago some of the children of in First-square, I think Assembly of God and Redeemed Christian Church of God and some other ministries joined together to start a bank

When they started the bank the day they wanted to launch it they invited me to come and help them pray

So I went

After the prayer they said they want me to be their first customer.

I said I have no money

I am talking of years ago.

Well, they said that is no problem, just open an account they said they will put fifty thousand naira there, as out of their own pocket.

Okay.

So I filled the form.

And then one newspaper reported the story and said I am the one who started the bank and that I deposited and I spent fifty million naira to start the bank

Hey!

At that time even if you sell the whole of us in Redeemed we are not up to fifty million.

And then there was a meeting of Pentecostal leaders, it was around the time when the Arch Bishop of Idahosa had just die;

While the meeting was on, one fellow got up who called himself a prophet got up and said he had that I have started a bank and thus saith the Lord, just as the Idahosa died suddenly I will be the next fellow to follow.

And everybody there they were all looking at me.

Aren’t you going to say something?

There is no need; no need.

God has already spoken: He says when a prophet says I said when I did not say anything I will deal with the prophet.

That’s more than twenty-years ago I am still here.

The one who said I am going to die is no more.

I have good news for you my children, anyone who is expecting you to die before your time; you will be there at their burial ceremony; you will be there at their funeral.

You are born to win.

Let me round up with this because I want you to really pray for at least thirty minutes tonight because our weapon of warfare is not carnal;     

We don’t fight with guns and cutlasses but we fight with prayer.

And every goliath must fall tonight; we must activate our victory tonight.

You must fight till every no becomes yes.

In Matthew 15 from verse 21 to 28, a woman came to Jesus Christ and said I am not the one in trouble really it is my daughter; my child is grievously vexed with the devil; the devil is troubling my home.

I need help.

At first Jesus did not answer her.

She kept on crying

The Apostles, the Bishops, the Pastors said Lord drive this woman away she is too noisy.

Jesus said I Am not sent to anybody except to the house of Israel.

The woman said whether I belong to the house of Israel or not I am getting a miracle tonight.

The devil is going to be defeated in my family tonight.

She came to the Lord and say have mercy on me; I know I am not of the house of Israel but have mercy on me

Jesus Christ said I cannot give the bread of children to dog;

She said haa, this dog is not going home without a miracle.

There is somebody here tonight you won’t go back the way you came.

She cried until Jesus said woman great is your faith, receive your miracle.

In John chapter 2 verse 1 to 11, when the mother of Jesus came to him and said no more wine in Canaan of Galilee;

His mother said to those who are standing there don’t move an inch; anything He asks you to do, do it.

What Jesus Christ said was that not yet.

Because this people refuse to move ‘not yet’ becomes ‘now’.

Every miracle that you have been expecting, you are getting it tonight in Jesus name.

You must learn to fight until every no becomes a yes; every not yet becomes now.

Remember the story in Mark chapter 2 verse 1 to 12, when they brought this young man who was paralyzed from neck downward, brought by his four friends;

And they got there they found that the doors were blocked by people, windows block by the people, they climbed to the roof and dropped the roof;

The Bible says from the days of John the Baptist the kingdom of God suffereth violent and the violent take it by force.

The problem with many of us is that just before our result we stop praying.

Tonight we are going to force our way through; we are born to win we are tired of losing; we are more than conquerors no more defeat.

You are born to prosper no more loses.

I thought I will hear amen loud and clear.

I have told you the story of a day after one convention and then I was very very tired

I have finished, everybody had gone home and I have gone round the camp so that everything was in order;

I came back home and I told my wife no more visitors; now I am qualify to rest, I am going to bed.

Shortly after that she came: woman I told you that I don’t want any more assignment I want to rest.

Haa!

There is a woman at the door she came from the north:

Is Daddy home?

They said yes.

My children don’t lie.

I want to see him

They said he is not seeing anybody again today.

The woman said he is home?

They said yes.

He is not seeing anybody today?

They said yes.

Who is talking about today?

I will seat at this door until he comes – whether today or tomorrow;

He is in!

Then fine.

How many of you know that God has not travelled; that God is at home and He is ready to hear you?

Let me hear you shout a big hallelujah.

So my wife said you are tired, you better add this one to your tiredness.

They said they gave her food; she sat down at my door and ate the food and just relaxed.

He is at home!

I came to her

Woman what is the trouble?

It is this my head – anytime something good is about to happen; something will happen and throw it away.

Just touch this head and bless and then I will be able to go.

Lay your hand on your own head and say: head, hear the word of the Lord you are born to win, you must win.

And so shall it be in Jesus mighty name.

And so tonight we are going to pray and you are going to pray for thirty minutes.

You are going to name all the giants blocking your way one by one and tell them in the mighty name of Jesus Christ they must get out of your way now.

Every sickness, every diseases, every ache, every pain, everything causing you sorrow, your problems physical, your problems material, your problems spiritual, your problems marital, you must present them before God one by one by one tonight until we get up knowing fully well that we are born to win and winners we are.

So if you want you can come to the altar, if you want you can kneel down, if you want you can seat down, if you want you can stand, but if I were you I will pray with all my heart. You will start by thanking the Almighty God and then present your case. God is hear, He has not travel, He is willing to listen to you; you are born to win.

Go ahead and begin to talk to the Almighty God. Tell Him all the problems that have been hindering your victory and claim your victory tonight. Call on Him and He will answer you, He will surprise you tonight and you will leave this place shouting I am more than a conqueror.

Thank You Jesus. *Speaking in the Holy Ghost*. Hallelujah. Thank You Jesus. Thank You Father. Hallelujah Father.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Before I pray for you I want you to please stand; we want to pray some prayer in agreement.

Let us stand.

Let us stand up and join our hand with our neighbour; we want to pray prayer of agreement – one or two.

First of all I want you to say to the Almighty God loud and clear and say: Father, I am in agreement with my neighbour give my neighbour total victory.

Go ahead talk to the Almighty.

In all our families Lord we are in one accord, we decree Lord, no more premature death; in the mighty name of Jesus no more premature death. **Speaking in the Holy Ghost**. Thank You. Thank You Father. Glory be to God. **Speaking in the Holy Ghost**. Thank You Father. Glory be to Your holy name. **Speaking in the Holy Ghost**. Thank You my Father. Glory be to Your holy name.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

One more prayer and you pray this one with all your heart and say: Father, I agree with my neighbour from now on open doors.

Go ahead talk to the Almighty God.

Open doors in every areas of the life of these children of God; open doors, open doors, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ open doors; **speaking in the Holy Ghost**; no more hindrance, no more slow down, open doors, open doors, open doors.

The life more abundant that Jesus promise beginning from this month you will begin to enjoy it; you will never fail again; you will never know defeat; there will be no more loses for you; you will never know sorrow again; God will renew your strength; and in all your families there will be no more premature death; in all your churches no more cancer; beginning from today doors will open unto you; every goliath in your life shall fall tonight; it shall be well with you. Forever you will be a winner. All who gathered against you shall fall. God will help you; He will support you; He will make your victory total. So shall it be. And you too you will serve God; you will find it easy to win souls; none of your relatives will go to hell; none of your neighbours will go to hell; God will help you to win souls; it shall be well with you; He will answer all your prayers and your joy will never end.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Go ahead and give the Lord a big round over applause.

God bless you.
