In Jesus mighty name we prayed. Amen. Well, let somebody shout hallelujah. Shake hands with one or two people and prophesy to him or her, and say: in the mighty name of Jesus, you shall be great. Say it as if you mean it. And then your turn to the other fellow and say: Neighbour, by the next time you see me, I will be greater. Say it again to three people that by the next time you see me I will be greater. If you believe that shout hallelujah. And then you may please be seated. Jeramiah chapter 29 verse 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. God is a builder; He builds houses – Exodus 1 verse 15 to 21, the Bible says because the midwives feared God, He built them houses. So, God is a builder of houses. He builds marriages; God is a builder of marriages. In Genesis 2 verse 18 to 25, He is the One who said it is not that a man should be alone. He is a builder for marriages which is while I am expecting several thousands of marriages this year. He is a builder of homes; not just houses but homes; not just marriages but homes. He Himself is called father and you cannot be called a father if you don’t children; He is against barrenness. Which is while I am decreeing there will be many many happy children coming to the homes that were currently considered barren. He builds cities; not just homes but cities. In Hebrews 11 verse 10, the Bible tells us that Abraham was looking for a city that has foundations whose builder and maker is God He builds city. He builds people; He is a builder of people 1Corinthians 3 verse 9 says we are God’s building. He builds people. Now, He is not just a builder, He is an Architect. That passage Hebrews 11 verse 10, He uses the word ‘maker’ – ‘he was looking for a city whose builder and maker...’ The word ‘maker’ there is another for the Architect. God is not just a builder; He is an architect. He does not begin to build unless there is a plan and that while the Bible says in Acts 15 verse 18 says known unto God are all His works from the beginning of the world. He knows the end from the beginning. That is while He says in Jeremiah 1 verse 4 to 5, He says before I formed thee, I knew thee. Before I put you together in your mother belly, I already knew thee. You did not come into the world by accident, there was a plan for your life. And when you read Romans 9 verse 17, you will see there when God said He raised up Pharoah for a purpose. Pharaoh did not just become Pharoah without a reason, God said I raised you up for a purpose. And for what purpose? He says so I can show My power. He raised up Pharaoh so he can drown him, so that the whole world will hear that there is someone who is greater than somebody who considered himself as the greatest. So, when you see someone prospering through wicked means don’t be envious of him wait till the end. The reason by the time you read Exodus chapter 3 from verse 19 to 20, when God was sending Moses to bring the children of Israel out of Egypt, He told him Pharoah won’t let you go I will harden his heart. Poor Pharoah, he was in trouble even before the game began. God said he won’t let you go, because if he agrees to let you go, I won’t be able to demonstrate My power in him. Pharoah was destined for destruction. And by the time you read Daniel chapter 4 from verse 1 to the end, you will see story of Nebuchadnezzar, God created so that He will show the one who thinks there is no one like him; that you are here for an experiment. To show the world that I can make a king eat grass like an animal and then restore him, and then he will say there is no one like God. I pray that your destiny will be a good one. Because when you considered Paul the Apostle and you read Galatians 1 verse 13 to 24, he started by being an antichrist, and at the end of the day he ended up an Apostle; and he said God have settled the matter before I was born. There is somebody here today, God has settled the matter. One of the reasons He brought you here tonight is that your matter had been settled. I wish will have a whole year to discuss this topic, but then let us now focus on you as an individual. In Jeremiah chapter 29 verse 11, in the text that we read, which I am sure my son also mentioned; God says I know the thought I have towards you, thought of peace, not of evil, to give you an expected end. The destiny God has for you is a good one. How do I know? You see, in Genesis chapter 1 verse 26 to 28, if you read this passage with understanding, you will find out that God created you to be like Him: ‘let Us created man in Our own image; in Our own likeness’, He created you to be like Him. In Psalm 82 verse 6 He said I have said you are gods (your own G for God is small letter g) and that all of you are the children of the most High. And if you are child of God automatically according to John chapter 1 from verse 11 to 12, as many as received Him gave to them gave he power to become sons of God or children of God. You are Christian, then you are a child of God; even the world calls you that. You know, you are child of God, you are true Christian and you misbehave, sinners will turn to you and say, haha but you called yourself a child of God. You know what they are saying? You are supposed be to like your Father! Now, the elders have saying they say an elephant never gives birth to a dwarf and the child of an elephant will automatically be an elephant – big. The day the child of the elephant is born he is born big because an elephant will not give birth to a dwarf. Like father, like children. Inside every child there is something called the gene of the father. Science just discovered that some years ago, so, they can test you, test your father; or test you, test your men, and tell you that one is your father and the other fellow is a pretender; and thing is very accurate. In 1John chapter 4 verse 4, the Bible says you are of God little children, Why? Because greater is He that is you than he that is in the world. There is something in you that will show that you belong to God. That is while whatever you want to do for a cat; no matter how hungry a cat may be, the cat is not going to eat grass; he would rather die of hunger. Why? Because there is something in him that says grass is not for you. This is what I tell those who tell me that you cannot live a holy life; If you are truly born of God! The word of God says if you are born of God, you won’t sin! Why? There is something in you that will hate sin. If a sheep falls into a pit of muddy water, it will cry until it is pulled out. If you get a pig, and you water it very clean and you release it, where will it head? To the muddy water because that is where the thing inside him will direct him to go. I have a rough idea that before this night is out, those who are truly destined for greatness will know themselves. So, tonight I want to show some of the attribute of your Father which should begin to manifest in you. Mummy was leading us in prayer and she spoke about the greatness of God being unsearchable, we cannot cover it all. Let us pick about four or five of the attributes of God that should begin to manifest in you because if you are true child of God you are born, you are destined to be great. Number one: God is Almighty. Everybody agrees on that including those who don’t like him. God is Almighty. Psalm 91 verse 1 says he that dwells in the secret place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. What do we mean by Almighty? Almighty means somebody who can do anything. Jeremiah 32 verse 27: behold I AM the God of all flesh, is anything too hard for Me? Luke chapter 1 verse 37: for with God nothing shall be impossible. And do you know you too can be like your Father the Almighty; you can get absolutely anything done. I discover long time ago that there is one word that you can never find in the dictionary of God and that is the word impossible. From the moment I discover that, all those who are close to me they know there is one word I don’t want to hear, and that is the word impossible. And I decree today in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, from now on nothing will be impossible for you. When we were building this camp, when we want to have the first convention here, one of the new converts came to me here and says Daddy, I want to come to the convention, but where am I going to stay? He was a new convert, a big man, and the building we were preparing for people to stay is like somebody call chicken pence, You know, we just drove some wood into the ground, roof it, and build up to a meter height, and surround the rest with mosquito net, that is accommodation. He said my friends won’t be able to follow me here if I told them this is where we are going to be spending the night. Where will I stay? I said, well, we still have seven days to go, we can build you a bungalow. He said, haa! A bungalow! In seven days! I said yes! How many days did it take God to create the heaven and the earth? He said six days. I am His son. Nobody believe it could be done. They said you will build a bungalow in seven days; it will collapse within a year. It was built in 1983, is still there! How many of you believe that from now onward, the word impossible will leave your dictionary? Your father is the Almighty and He says in Mark chapter 9 verse 23, Jesus said unto him, if thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believe. How many things are possible? Say it loud and clear. I want you to leave here tonight with that solid assurance that from this moment onward all things will be possible unto me. Why? Because I am a child of God and my Father is the Almighty. Number two: God is sovereign. Psalm 15 verse 3 says our God is in the heaven He does as He pleases. Why? Because according to Psalm 24 verse 1 says the earth is the Lord and the fullness thereof. Whatever maybe dwelling on earth, I made them, I own them, because I can do whatever I like with them. And He says concerning in Genesis chapter 1 verse 26 to 28, He says I want you to subdue the earth; take charge, have dominion. You know whatever is happening in your life you allow it to happen. That will shock you! Because the Almighty God had imbedded you the ability to have dominion over everything including wide animals. In James chapter 3 verse 7, He said very animal, every kind of beast, of birds, or serpent, anything in the sea, had been tamed. Human beings can make elephant dance. They are some of people who keep lions as pet; because there is thing in you, in man that puts you in charge. I am believing my God, He will help you understand that whatever is troubling you is because you allowed it; So that those things that are bothering you will be removed tonight. You know, in Mark 16 from verse 17 to 18, He gave you power even to cast out demons. He says even if you drink something deadly it won’t hurt you. He says if you lay hands on the sick, they will recover. He said so! I remember my first to Zambia, I have told you before and I ate something that did not agree with my stomach and in the night I began to go to the toilet. I cannot remember the full details now, whether is the twenty-third time or twenty-fourth time, I forgot, it just occurred to me, what is going on here? Is it not written I will lay hands on the sick and the sick will recover and He did not say who the sick would be, and today, I am the sick one, So, I lay my hand of my own head and I said stomach hear the word of the Lord, keep quiet. And that was the end of the problem. Lay your own hand on your head and decree: everything in me that should not be there, get out. Go ahead, say it, say it as you mean it; it might be the beginning of your testimonies. You are destined to be like God; that is who you are destined to be like. In Jesus name it shall be. God is the Almighty, you are His son, all you need to do the impossible is just believe in Him. He is sovereign, He does as He pleases; He gave you dominion, puts you in charge. Number three: God rule by decree Take note of that. Psalm 33 from verse 8 to 9, let the whole earth fear before Him; let all the inhabitants of the earth stand in awe of Him. Why? He spake and it is done; He commanded and it stand firm. In Genesis chapter 1 from verse 1 to 3, He said let there be light and there was light. He rules by decree. In Mark chapter 4 from verse 35 to 41, Thank You Father. The Lord says there is someone who is being asking, God where are you? He asked me to tell you, I AM by your side. Thank You Father. I believe this is for and is for somebody else. The Lord asked me to tell someone, He is the Alpha and the Omega, and He asked me to tell you, your future is secure in His hand. In Mark chapter 4 verse 35 to 41, when there was a storm and they woke up Jesus, He spoke only one word; He decreed ‘peace be still’, and the storm obeyed Him. And according to Job chapter 22 from verse 21 to 28, the Bible says if you are at peace with God, you too can decree a thing and it will be established unto you. We know these things, we read them; the problem is, don’t we believe them? In Mark chapter 11 from verse 22 to 23, says if you have faith in God you will say to this mountain, mountain be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea, it shall come to pass. Is not the Pastor who said so, is the One who can never lie. Please with all boldness, decree right now, and say, in the mighty name of Jesus, every mountain across my path, get out. Say it as if you mean it. So shall it be in Jesus mighty name. Please I beg you, don’t treat tonight as another service because your destiny is at stack. The word that is coming to you is not a sermon is a message from heaven. You are destined to be great; just like the choir sang, you are not destined to be an ordinary man, not destined to be an ordinary woman, you are destined to win! And from now on, you will begin to win. In Acts of the Apostle 13 from verse 6 to 12, Paul was preaching to a governor and there was a sorcerer who was trying to prevent the governor from paying attention, The Bible says he kept on doing what he was doing until Paul says wait a minute, why are you disturbing me? Why are you hindering me from doing what I want to do for God? He said I decree, be blind...; thank God he added for a season; ...and the moment he said so, the man became blind and moved out of the way. Everything blocking your way, everything that is not allowing you to do what you want to do for God, please open your mouth and say, get out of my way. Thank You Father. In Jesus mighty name. Amen. The devil is cheating you; and I am angry with the devil. And the reason he is cheating you is because he knows you don’t know who you are. He is trying to take advantage, but things are going to change now. Remember very well one of my daughters came to me and said I am going to America Embassy for visa. Alright, God bless you. Pray for me. I said okay, I have prayed, God will go with you. Then she returned and said they did not give me the visa. I said, haa, but I prayed. And she said, I know they won’t give me. I said why? She said because you did not say ‘it is done’. I said, oh, I am sorry. They asked you to appeal? She said yes. Go and appeal, and this time, it is done. And she went back for another interview; and whenever they refused you and you are appealing, they will send you to the original fellow who refused you. So, she went to the same fellow with same document, and the fellow said, you mean we refuse you? She said yes you did. Sorry; two years. Whatever you asked from my God tonight, I stand in my office as your father and I say it is done. Rule by decrees because you are child of your Father, you are destined to be like God. Be in charge of every situation around you. Be in charge. Take control. I can tell you several stories because tonight is so crucial; this year is crucial! At the University of Lagos when I was a lecturer there, there was young young disciples, young girls and boys who moved around with me, come to do Bible studies in my office, etcetera One night, after I have gone home, and I was living in Surulere, information got to one of them that the cult has made up their mind that they were going to burn down the library, They have already bought kegs of petrol that they were going to use; and one of them heard and called the others together and they we say, hey, our Lecturer, our Leader has gone home now, what are we going to do? And one of them say, haha, we don’t need him to handle this case! After all, he taught us that whatever you bind on earth is bound in heaven, and whatever is lose on earth is loosed in heaven. How many of believe that statement? And so, they brought themselves together and they prayed. And the cult boys sat down and they said they will wait till midnight, in the main time they were drinking palm wine; by the time they woke it was morning, and they began to quarrel among themselves: How can you fall at sleep on duty? And they said to their leader, what kind of leader are you? And the leader said what kind of followers are you? If I fell asleep, why didn’t you wake me up? With their own hands they poured away the petrol they had bought because some small boys decided that they too will rule, they will be in charge. Hold the hand of your neighbour because God said in His word: if wo of you shall agree as touching anything on earth it shall be done for you by Your Father in heaven. Hold the hand of your neighbour and say I agree with you every obstacle in your way will not be there by tomorrow morning. Go ahead, pray for a minute or two. I am in total agreement with you, any obstacle in your way will not be there by tomorrow morning. Thank You Father. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed. God is All-Knowing – Acts 15 verse 18 Thank You Daddy. The Lord asked me to tell someone that thing which is crawling in your head as crawl away. And is not going to come back. God knows what has happened in the past, He knows what is happening, He knows what is going to happen. He is your Dad – like father like son; like father like daughter. He can show you hidden things: 2Kings chapter 5 verse 20 to 27 – Elisha did not leave home and yet he saw everything that Gehazi did. 2Kings chapter 6 from verse 8 to 12, Elisha did not leave his house but he saw what a king is planning against his own king. I pray for somebody here tonight, every plan of your enemy God will expose. Acts chapter 5 from verse 1 to 11, Peter was not there when Ananias and Saphera were making their little plan, but the moment they came to him, God revealed everything. He can show what has gone past; He can show what happened in the past that is causing your present trouble so that if you need to restitute, you can go and restituted. He can show things to come. He showed Abraham in Genesis chapter 15 from verse 1 to 5... Thank You Father. The Lord says there is someone here tonight, Lord said you ate poison in your dream... You see, eating in dreams might be very dangerous like the testimonies you heard; But the Lord says there is someone here tonight, He said you ate poison in your dream, He said at the next shout of hallelujah the poison will disappear. In Genesis 15 from verse 1 to 5, God showed Abraham, He said look at the stars, can you count them? He said, no way. And He said, so shall your children be. He was talking to a man who was barren but God was showing in the future. By the time you to Exodus 12 verse 37 when the children of God were leaving Egypt, the Bible said, there were six hundred thousand men, and then he added, that is without counting the children. If there were six hundred thousand men and you have not counted the children, then you know we are talking of millions. Well, that is not really the beauty of it all; but the beauty of is all is that God can show you a glimpse of your destiny; He can show just a little bit of what is coming. I mean, you know that story of a Joseph very well in Genesis 39 from verse 5 to 11... Thank You Father. I can hear somebody singing in song; it is a song in Yoruba but the meaning of song is: ‘my joy has just started’ - Se l’Ayo mi sese bere, mo do l’ori re. Somebody is going to sing that song before the end of this month. In Genesis 37 from verse 5 to 11 God showed Joseph a glimpse of his future. You see, if God can only show you a little glimpse of the greatness ahead of you, your life will change. You might be nobody now, wait and see what will happen before the end of this year! He did not ask you to fast for hundred days for nothing! People laughed at us when we were fasting, they even called me stupid old man, I want to tell somebody listening to me tonight, as many of you that took part in that fast you will laugh last. God showed Joseph a glimpse of what is coming. By the time we got to Genesis 50 from verse 15 to 21, everything God said came to pass. And many of you had received prophecies upon prophecies that you knew without any doubt this is mine, I can assure you, it does not matter what is going on, whatever He said will come to pass. I told you about the first we went to America my father-in-the-Lord and I to attend Keneth Hagin camp meeting, and after the program we went to a church on Sunday to worship Papa and I because we were all strangers they put us on the front roll; Papa couldn’t speak English or understand it and so I was seating next to him interpreting, And the preacher came down from the pulpit, you know the American Preachers stood in front of him...; heavy hair on his head, white as snow; ...and he began to prophesy, ‘thus saith the Lord that which I told you at the beginning is about to come to pass’, And then he turned back and went to the altar and began to preach. Papa said what did he say? I said I will tell you when we get home because I wanted to hear the rest of the sermon. When I got home, I asked Papa, what was it God told you at the beginning? He said, at the beginning when He was asking me to start this church, He told me the church will go round the whole world; and at that time the whole church was only in South-West of Nigeria. Look at Redeem today every where you go, Why? Because God is faithful, He promised and He will fulfill the promise. I decree to someone here today, even before the end of this month, you will testify. He can open your eyes; He can cause you to see visions. That is what He promised in Joel chapter 2 verse 28, he says your sons and daughters they will see visions. Your Father is the one who make the same eyes – Proverbs chapter 20 verse 12 – the hearing hears, the seeing eyes God made them. Oh thank You Father. This one is for me and I believe it must be for my wife also, and somebody else. The Lord asked me to tell someone you will be much greater than you think. Let us talk about maybe just one more point about God because I want you to have time to pray tonight because you are going to pray now with faith, with assurance, As you are not an ordinary person, you are a child of the living God; what your Father can do you can do, if He can decree, you can decree; God is eternal, He lives forever - 1Timothy chapter 1 verse 17 - and you are supposed to live forever. Genesis chapter 3 from verse 22 to 24... Thank You Lord. The Lord asks me to tell somebody, He says your feet is shaking where you are; He asked me tell you, I planted you nobody can uproot. Oh thank You Father. The Lord says I should tell someone, He said for a long time you have been praying for a shower of blessings, He asked me to tell your, the rain will begin to fall this month. In Genesis chapter 3 from verse 22 to 24, there is a tree called the tree of life, it was in the garden for a purpose, God was just waiting for Adam and Eve for the right moment so they can live There were supposed to live forever. And if you are true child of God according to 1Thessalonians chapter 4 verse 16 to 17, you are going to live forever with the Lord, Death is not the end of the show, no. If you are true child of God when you died you will go to heaven, you will be with the Lord forever. But of course, if you reject Him, you are still going to live forever According to Mark chapter 9 verse 43 to 48, there is a place they say worms never die, that a place called hell. So, you either go to heaven or you go to hell, and wherever you go you will be there forever. I pray that I will see you in heaven. Let me conclude tonight. How do I know whether or not I am destined for greatness? Is there a way Sir that you can tell me so I know that all these good things that you are talking about they are for me? It is simply by what you hunger after. There will be something in you, is either you are being drawn to God, you just find out that what you want is what God want, not the opposite. When you read Romans 9 verse 10 to 13, the Bible said before Jacob and Esau were born, when they are still in the stomach, God had already said I love Jacob, I hate Esau; they were not yet born. God who saw the end from the beginning said these two boys they are twins they are about to be born; one is going to like food more than anything spiritual. Youi know what happened in Genesis 25 from verse 29 to 34? When Esau said give me food, and Jacob said, well if you want my food give me your birth right you are the first born; According to the Law of the Lord you are to have double portion of blessing; give that thing to me and then you can have food He said who cares about this double blessing something, just give me food. Is a parable God gave to show us, what is it that interest you? What do you thirst after? 1951, you will know how small I must be, the Anglican Bishop of Ibadan came to visit the little church in Ife-wara, my village, In 1951, only two lorries came to Ife-wara at that time, one is Huston, and the other is Bedford; I don’t see them around anymore; and from the noise they make, you can tell which one is coming, whether Huston or Bedford. But then the Bishop came in a car; and you can hardly hear the noise of the car, it just rolled into town quietly, And all of us who are students, pupils, lined the root to welcome him; the hunters did not go to the farm they were shooting into the air, giving gun salute; drummers were beating their drums, And as the bishop was passing by me, and he got to where he wanted to come down and when he stepped out the car, I saw his shoes, And I am telling you of 1951, a time when the total number of people who wore shoes in Ife-wara can be counted, And I saw his shoes, black, shining; my mouth was opened wide. He was wearing the bishop robe, beautiful thing, I got home that day, I told my mother that when I grow up, I will be a bishop. My mother laughed happily. Years passed, I moved away from home, I moved away from going to church, but God saw the hunger, and somewhere along the line I found salvation, one way or the other I became General Overseer. In 1981, I went to visit my village; I went in a car, I did not dress like a Bishop but I dress like General Overseer. The children were there to welcome me; hunters were there firing their guns, the drummers were there beating their drums; and when I was about to come out of the car, I looked at my feet, my shoes were black and shinning. I got a glimpse of my destiny when the bishop came. And then I become born again before I become General Overseer, and then every day there was this hunger, I want to serve God, I want to do more for Him, I want to spend for Him, That was while they said there was going to be festac, I decided if the whole country is going to be on holiday because the people will be singing and dancing to one idol or the other, why can’t I gather people together so that we too can sing and praise God? I decided to write to all secondary schools in Nigeria; all Teachers’ Training Colleges, I went to WAEC and collect their address, inviting them to come, and I told them they will be fed, I had no money, I was just a lecturer grade two. After I had printed the invitation card and it was time to post them because I got some many addresses, I suddenly discovered I did not even have enough money to buy stamps. But I believe that God is going to gather the nation together and somehow, He will take care of them, So, I sold my car to buy stamps; the hunger was there; I was looking for every opportunity to witness, every opportunity win soul, every opportunity, I am still looking for more opportunities, and thank God for the month of May when do much more than just come to church; when we go all out to win souls. What is it, what is the hunger in you? Some of you listen to the song, God is going to prosper me... Amen. What are you going to use the money for? What is the hunger in you? Couple of years ago I spoke to all our workers, what are you doing? Some of you have been in a worker for five years and there is not church in your village! And some of the old ones here they will remember, we use every trick in the book; we send people to the market to go and witness; You go to somebody and said yes ma, I want to buy some pepper but before I buy pepper I am something to sell What do you have to sell? Salvation in Jesus Christ. I am going to buy your pepper but I want to sell you something; and you will take money from me and I will take nothing from you. Because of the hunger to please Him; hunger to please Him. What is the hunger in you? Is your hunger that will determine your greatness. You are not an ordinary person; the office you occupied now is just for God to provide food for you, you real assignment is to win souls for God, that is your real assignment. You are place in that office to take charge; you are place in that office to have dominion, You are place in that office so that when people see you coming, they won’t be able to continue with devilish jokes, You are placed in whatever position you are to be a light that will shine so that when darkness sees you coming, darkness will fly. The Almighty God said in Acts of Apostle chapter 13 from verse 21 to 22, He said, He has found a man who will do all My will, and He was talking about David. How do we know that David is going to be great? Because even while he was in the bush looking after sheep and some..., he was also singing praising God. Remember he was he one who said in Psalm 34 verse 1 to 3, I will bless the Lord at all times, His praise shall continually be in my mouth. What is the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning? I have goodnews for you if you seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, everything you need God will supply. There might be one or two of you listening to me tonight, you are not yet born-again but you are hungry for God, something brought you here tonight because you are destined for greatness. You are not yet a child of God but you want to be because if you become a child of God then like father like son. I am going to count from one to fifteen because I can see some of you are very far away. If you say yes, I believe, now I know what I came here for; I want to surrender my life to Jesus Christ, I want to become a child of the true living God, I want to be like my Father in heaven, Just like God is the Almighty, just like God is in charge of every situation, I want Him to take over my life, so that like father like son. If you really really want to give your life to Jesus Christ, you want to be true child of the living God, you want to say bye bye to a life of sin, you can come and I will pray with you, and the Almighty will save your soul. The Bible made it clear that he that sin is of the devil. If you are living in sin, we know who your father is. But if you want to become true child of God, you want to begin to live the life of holiness, you want to live a life that please God, begin to come now. I am counting One, And those of you in all the viewing centres go to the altar there; and if you are listening to me in your car, park the car and spend these few minutes talking to God to let Him know that you are surrendering your life to Him. I am counting now, Two, three, four, five, Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, this is your night; your destiny depends on your decision tonight. Six, Come, come and surrender your life to Him; come and become a child of God. If you are a child of God, all attribute of God can become manifest in your life. God is the Almighty, He is the One in charge and He can give you dominion. He rules by decree and you too can begin to decree and it will be established unto you. Seven, eight, nine, ten, Thank you those of you who are clapping your hand will never be withered. Eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen Now, those of you on the way keep coming, keep coming, and pray as you come. Those of you in front you begin to pray too, Tell the Lord I have come to you tonight I want to surrender my life to You; I want you to be my Lord, I want You to be my Saviour, I want You to take over my life, I want You to be in charge of my life, save my soul oh Lord I don’t want to have anything to do with the devil any more. I want You to be my Lord, I want You to be my Savior, please have mercy on me, save my soul Almighty God. Those of you on the way keep coming and keep praying as you come. And the rest of us shall will you please stretch towards our hands to these our new brothers and sisters and intercede for them. Pray that the One who saved our souls will save their own souls also. Pray that the Lord will have mercy on them and that their sins will be wash away by the blood of the Lamb. Please pray for them. I know there are many of you still on the way, just keep coming, keep coming, just make sure you get to the front before I finish praying. Pray as you. Say Lord have mercy on me, save my soul, forgive all my sins, be my Lord, be my Saviour, take charge of my life o Lord, take absolute control of the rest of my life. Go ahead call on Him. And those of you on the way, come I will wait some few seconds for you. I know you have been coming from a long distance, just keep coming, keep coming, God bless you as come, and pray as you come: asking Him to save your soul, asking Him to have mercy on you. Keep coming, I can see some of you, I can see some of you far away you have to hurry up, hurry up. Ask Him, Lord, have mercy on me, forgive all my sins Lord, be my Lord, be my Saviour and I will serve for the rest of life. Thank You Jesus. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed. My Father and my God I want to thank You for Your word, I want to give You all glory and honour for this people who have decided to come to surrender their lives to You, Father please receive them, have mercy on them, save their souls, let Your blood wash away their sins, right their names in the book of life, and from now each time they call on you answer them by fire, and don’t let them go back into the world, let it be well with them. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed. Amen. Praise the Lord. Those of you who are still coming, keep coming, don’t stop you are not late yet. And those you who have given your life to Jesus I want to rejoice with; from now on by God’s grace I will be praying for you, and so I need your names, your address, and your prayer requests. Don’t go until the counsellors have attended to you because I need the information they will pass unto me and I will be praying for you. God bless you. The rest of us will wait for you until they are finished with you before we continue. God bless you. Thank You Father. You want to write down your prayer points. Number one, you want to say thank you to the Almighty God for destined you for greatness. Then you first cry to Him will be, Father, please let me fulfil destiny. You will say, Father, let my faith in You be strong, unshakeable; let me realise I am not an ordinary person, I am a child of God. Send me destiny helpers Father. And then the next set of prayers, you will just be decreeing: You start by saying, in the mighty name of Jesus every mountain blocking my way I decree you move tonight. You go ahead and decree that from tonight onward the word impossible will get out of my dictionary. And you decree, that nobody in my family will go to hell, they must all be saved. You will decree that from now on when forces of darkness see me coming, they will run. You will decree that every thing boarding me on way or the other will disappear. You will decree that I will live the rest of my life in dominion. Decree I will be above only, and not beneath. Decree that for the rest of my life I will be forward ever and backward never. And decree any other great thing that you want to for yourself. The altar is open. If you come and pray don’t pray timidly tonight, don’t pray quietly tonight, pray like true children of God; you are the children of the most High, cry to the Almighty God let Him hear you; let the devil know that you have rough idea of who you are not. Go ahead cry to the Almighty. Pray like someone in authority because you are; pray like someone that the Almighty God will hear and will answer. Let the devil know that he can no longer keep you quiet; open your mouth and cry to God. Thank You Lord. Glory be to God. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed. I decree in the Name of that is above every other name that whatever you have asked for is done. All your decrees of tonight shall be established. Whether the devil likes it or not you shall be great. You shall be strong, you shall be bold, you shall be like God; you will fulfil destiny. The Almighty God will send help to you. And you will be hungry to serve the Lord. It shall be well with you. So shall it be. In Jesus mighty name I have decreed it. Let someone shout hallelujah.
