We give You all the glory We give You honour We give You all the glory We give You honour. Father, Almighty, King of kings and Lord of lords, we worship You. Thank You for January, thank You for February, thank You for March, thank You for April, now, thank You for May, accept our worship in Jesus’ name. Father, tonight please speak to us, let us hear from You, send Your word, heal us, deliver us, give us victory, glorify Your name, let everyone of us here return next month to glorify Your name, thank You Daddy, in Jesus mighty name we have prayed. Amen. Let somebody shout hallelujah. But before you seat down, I want you to join your faith to mine because I want to make a decree and your amen will be your agreement with that decree. Because most of the testimonies of tonight had had to do with people who got victory over cancer. I want to decree that any form of growth in the live of you either present or listening to us, be dead tonight. Then put your hands together if you believe that it is done. You may please be seated. I believe that the Almighty God is going to somebody a pleasant surprise today. I know we said that we will be praying specially for those who are trusting God for partners; we will do that. But when God gave us the theme Excellent Counsel, that tells us immediately that this month in not for those trusting God for partners alone because we all need counsel. Now, when He says our theme for this month is going to be divine counsel, that means nobody is left out. You see, Proverbs chapter 4 from verse 7 to 9, tells us that wisdom is the principal things. And the text for tonight of course is Proverbs 24 verse 5 to 6 and he says 5A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength. 6For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety. You can then continue further if you want to. Like i said, Proverbs chapter 4 from verse 7 to 9 tells us how important wisdom is. And wisdom tells you that when you don’t know what to do, you should look for someone who knows more than you, and ask for assistance. Proverbs 15 verse 22 says, without counsel purposes are disappointed. If you want to do something, you have a purpose and you don’t know how to go about it, or there is there is nobody to advice on how to go about it, the Bible says the purpose will be defeated. And then the Bible tells us, not all counsel is good. So, when we are talking about excellent counsel, we are not just talking about any kind of counsel; there some counsel that are bad, that can even destroy the purpose. If you read 1Kings chapter 12 from verse 1 to 16, there was a case of a young king called Rehoboam; He got on the throne, he was a young man, he does not know how to rain, and something told him, you need counsel. So, he consulted the elders, those who are colleagues of his father, and those people counselled him. When people come to you to say, Kabiesi, how are you going to deal with us? Humble yourself tell them I will treat you very nicely; they said, the people will be glad and they will serve you. Then, the boy went to somebody else, to the young ones who grew up with him, and said, what should I say to the people? And the young ones said, don’t mind the old ones they are old fashion; they are not as modern as we. Tell those people I will deal with you. You said, my father was hard on you, you have not seen anything yet; my finger will be thicker than the tie of my dad. My dad flogged you with canes, I am going to deal hit you with scorpions! And he chose the advice of the younger ones. So, when the people came and say, your majesty, how is it going to be? He gave them the advice of the younger ones. The people said, is that so? Alright! Before you kill us, we will find our ways. So, there could be good advice, there could be bad advice. I am praying for you today that the Almighty God will speak to you that He will give you good counsel. You see, because one of the names of the Lord Jesus Counsel in Isaiah chapter 9 verse 6. He will give you good counsel tonight. If you go through the scriptures, you have seen Him, the Almighty God, giving counsel; what He will counsel one will be different on what He will counsel another. That is while tonight, He needs to talk to you as an individual that is while you need to be very attentive. For example, from Genesis chapter 12 from verse 1 to 4, He spoke to Abraham, If we are to look modern language, He told him to ‘japa’; get out of here, if you are going to be what i want you to be. The result: Abraham prospered mightily where God told him to go. But by the time you read Genesis 26 and you read from 1 to 6 (or if you like, just read it from verse 1 to 16) When Isaac the son of Abraham was trying to japa, God told him not to move, stay. And the result: Isaac prospered so mightily in the land that the whole nation began to envy him. That is while you need to say to God tonight, please talk to me personally, give me my own counsel. And He will answer your prayers in Jesus’ name. Now, let’s begin by talking to all of us; particularly those who are very young. The counsel of God for you is in Exodus chapter 20 verse 12: He said you must honour your father and your mother, so that your days may be long. You want to life to good old age, God says honour your parent. You see, what is going on in the world today; many of us, because we are more educated than our parents, we don’t honour them; it is a dangerous thing. According to be world of God, you don’t honour your parent, the possibility of you becoming parents is very narrow. Honour your parents! Remember, as you are growing old, remember your creator in the days of your youth – Ecclesiastes chapter 12 verse 1 to 8. The Bible is telling you; God is very king God. He is love. He will forgive you when you go wrong and you come back to Him but you need to know, wounds may heal, but scars will remain. When you are young, right from your youth, commit yourself to service of God. Remember Samuel, from a very tender age he started hearing from God. Later on in life, he became a nation prophet; he grew up to become the first king maker of Israel. He grew even more than that, he became the king remover of Israel. But he started by getting committed God even in a very tender age. Take note of that, because you may say you are you but ‘morning shows the day, as childhood shows manhood’. Be diligent! No matter your age, be diligent. Proverbs chapter 22... Thank You Father. Almighty God says, He is correcting eyes. He said those of you who are seeing double you will see double no more. Be diligent! Proverbs 22 verse 29: seest thou a man diligent in his business? he will stand before kings and shall not before mean men. Be diligent! It does not matter how low you may be rightm now, if you will be diligent, one day you will be dining with head of state. And it does not matter what job you are doing now, do it well, do it diligently; particularly if you are serving God, serve Him diligently; He will take you to a place where you yourself won’t believe. I told you once, we went to one Africa nation to lunch our church, and we decide to hold our crusade in the stadium; and we asked if we might see the president Finally, he agreed to see us; and they told me, fifteen minutes maximum, and I told them I don’t even need up to fifteen minutes. Then, we go there and I introduced myself, and the president took over; and of course, when the president is talking you don’t interrupt. After one hour I was beginning to get nervous because the crusade is about to start. After about two hours, I coughed, I have to say: your excellency, your people are waiting at the stadium. He said let them wait. He said I have heard of you; he said those people have people they can talk to; I have nobody who can give me good advice. To cut the long story short, after another one honour, he released us. As I was going to my car, I looked at myself, who are mine? Son of man so poor that his friends called him poor; from a village that is only recently on the map and the president is saying don’t hurry, stay. Take my advice, be diligent in the service of God and you will reach the top. I thought I will hear your amen. The Bible made it clear that the idle hand is going to be a servant to a diligent. Proverbs chapter 10 verse 4: idle hands make people poor; diligent hands will bring in wealth. You are diligent, you will be rich. You are lazy, you will be poor; that is what the Bible says. Proverbs chapter 12 verse 24 tells us that the hand of the diligent shall rule. Be diligent; one way or the other you will make it to the top. You better say amen to that. Several year ago, on new year day, on this camp ground. We just finished cross over night, everybody had gone to bed, and of course, because of my duty, very early in the morning I was going round the camp, the camp was small then; the auditorium them was the children auditorium now, And I saw one of our bricklayers on the first of January working on a building – First of January, I saw him, haha, what is going on? Today is new year day? He said, yes sir, I have to unfinished job, until I finished that job I cannot be talking of celebration. That young man, a bricklayer, today, is one of the biggest contractors on this camp ground. He was diligent, and God promoted. Let me decree that in the Name that is above every other name, all of you will become great, subject to your being diligent. Take that and note. Now, let me talk to the elders. The Bible says in Psalm 90 verse 12, he says teach us to number our days. What are we to number? Our days, not our years. Human beings count by years; God count by days. I told someone that I was trying to help, Sir, you are getting old, like everybody else, your days are numbered. He became very very angry that I told him that his days are numbered. All our days are numbered! The older you grow, the less time you have for nonsense because you don’t know how many days you have left. This is not the time, particularly as you are getting older, to toil with the things of God; only God can tell how many people who said happy new year will still be around by the end of the year. I pray for all our elders God will lengthen your lives; your evening will be brighter than your morning; but number your days. The Bible says number your days so that you can apply your heart to wisdom. As you grow older, you are going to get weaker, whether you like it or not. I know that one by experience. When we get to this camp ground some forty-something years ago, and we were building, everybody was building including general overseer, I will carry cement, one bag with the right hand, one bag with the left hand, and I will say, I am balancing the equation. Do you think I can do that now? And I will be stupid if I do that. The Bible made it clear that wisdom is better than strength. As you are getting older, you are going to get weaker, so apply wisdom. Ecclesiastes chapter 7 verse 19…. Thank You Father. The Lord says there is someone here that you have this peculiar headache that when this headache comes it is as if fire is burning inside your brain. Daddy asked me tell you that headache is gone, and it will not return. Thank You. I want to say amen to this one before I tell you. Daddy says there is someone here tonight; He said this very night the Lord of host will pay you a visit. Okay. I think I have spoken to everybody: children, youth, elders, Now, let us come to the people who this meeting was called to start with, and that is the people of Marriageable age. Listen very carefully, I want to give you counsel from the Lord. Number one, you need to know that God is good - Psalm 100 verse 5; and He cannot tolerate anything that is not good. Because in Genesis chapter 2 verse 18, he says “and the Lord said, it is not good that man should be alone…” He is the One who said, it is not good that you should be alone. And he says I will correct that situation. That’s what God said. He is a good God, and He does not like anything that is not good. When He sees something that is not good, he corrects it. Is not good that man should be alone therefore I will make arrangement. Allow me then on the basis that that the Almighty God will soon put an end to your loneliness because He is a faithful God. The Bible says, His faithfulness is forever more. All I would want to advice you first before I pick you one by one is that you must keep yourself pure. Don’t say because marriage is delayed and therefore you turn yourself to a harlot; keep yourself pure. And before you begin to decide on who to marry, please pray. Why must you pray? Proverbs 19 verse 21, tells us that there are many devises in the heart of man but it is counsel of the Lord that will stand. In your prayer ask for the perfect will of God. I am going to pray for you tonight but you will be surprise the kind of prayer that I will pray; and I need to tell you two quick stories before I pray the prayer. Several years ago, I am talking about forty years or more ago; there is a group of girls in church, five of them, there were very close to my wife; very close, here were practically part of the family. One of them came to me and say Daddy I think I have found a husband. I said good. Who is he? Have you prayed about it? Oh, I have prayed! May I pray? She said of course, you are my daddy. You may not like the prayer I am going to pray? She said, go ahead pray. And I said, Lord, if this relationship is of You, let everything go smoothly; if is not, scatter it. Two weeks later, the relationship was over. Later on, she got married to another child of God; even her husband grew up to become a member of the highest council in the church. Not too long after that, another of the five came, Daddy, I think I have found the man I am going to marry. Is that so? Yes. You have prayed about it? She said yes. May I pray? She said, haa, that scatter scatter kind of prayer. She said, Daddy, while don’t you just pray that that marriage will be fruitful. Don’t about whether it is perfect will of God or not, just pray that the marriage will be fruitful And that was the prayer I prayed for her. And she got married; on the day of the wedding, several things went wrong, but it was too late. And of course, the marriage was fruitful, they had two beautiful children, one of them is a doctor, the other is a lawyer; but the marriage did not last. When it is time for me to pray for you tonight, I am not going to ask for your permission, am I allow to pray the ‘scatter scatter prayer’? Alright. Thank You Father. The Lord asked me to tell someone; He said the door is open now. Thank You Father. Keep yourself pure! The Bible says in 2Timothy chapter 2 verse 22, flee youthful lust. Run as if the devil is pursuing you when the devil is trying to entice you into sin. Now, let me get specific; let me talk to my boys first. Choose very wisely. Don’t choose simply because of beauty. Proverbs chapter 31 verse 30… Oh, thank You Father. The Lord says there is someone here asking, ‘oh Lord what do I do next?’; God says I will guide you. Proverbs chapter 31 verse 30, he says beauty is vain. It is only the woman that fears the Lord that should be praise. Don’t marry because of beauty! That is while you have to pray. There are many demons that are very beautiful. I have already told, I believe you have probably read my book ‘the Mathematics of Marriage’? Equation one says, love is blind. Equation two says, marriage is a miracle worker with special anointing for opening blind eyes. You solve the two equations simultaneously; it says love is blind but marriage will open his eyes. If you marry because of beauty, you might choose a demon. I am not saying all beautiful people are demonic; no. There are many of my girls, very beautiful ones, and there is nothing demonic about them at all. But if it is beauty alone that led you into marriage; I can tell you several stories, only I want to be brief tonight because I still have another meeting. If is it beauty alone that lead you into a marriage, you will be amazed at how many people have falling into a very deep trap because they choose to marry for beauty. I don’t want to begin to tell you stories, but at least, there might be one that some of you had known about. But this great man, who marry this very very beautiful girl, beauty queen; and by time the case came to me, they had been married for more than two years, and the wife has not allowed the husband to have sex with her. More than two years! And you see her, beauty queen! Number two, don’t marry a girl who cannot cook. We are talking of excellent counsel. Only me can tell you these things; if she cannot cook, even if a prophet says this is your wife, say thank you very much, keep her. Because if she cannot cook, if she cannot be hospitable, you are heading for trouble. The Bible made it clear that your wife must be someone who is intelligent and hospitable. When you get home, read 1Samuel 25 verse 2 to 42. Read Genesis 18 from verse 1 to 14, Sarah was a good cook; she cooked for God. Read 2Kings chapter 4 from verse 8 – 17, the Shunamite woman got what money cannot buy because she was hospitable; good cook. Don’t marry a girl who does not do things in moderation. Philippians chapter 4 verse 5 says your moderation must be known to all men. When you are not yet married, no matter how close you are to wedding, and your girl is suggesting a wedding that is going to cost everything you have and get you into debt, call it off. Who said so? Daddy G.O. When you want to marry Brother; I hope my sons are listening? As much as it possible marry only a girl that is in the same family of God. Why? Exodus chapter 2 from verse 1 to 10… Thank You Father. The Lord asked me to tell someone, He said your mother will soon be a ground mother. Exodus chapter 2 from verse 1 to 10, the Bible says the father of Moses was from the tribe of Levi. When he was going to marry, he married a daughter from the tribe of Levi and then they produce Moses. I am not saying that other families of God are not good; we have many of them that are far far superior to us, but when it comes to marriage, it will be good. If the parents of your wife-to-be are in the same place where the general overseer can step into your situation if challenges come. Because occasionally the boat may rock, and your general overseer may be able to send for the parent of one group and the parents of the other side, and tell them let us put out this fire before it becomes too big. And this one, I am not sure you will like it. The girl you are going to marry must not be heavily made up. If you look at the girl, the hair on her head is from Indian, the eyelashes are false, the nails of the hand false, the nails on the toes false; You must ask yourself the question, what is behind the mask? Because one day you will discover that excessive make up is simply saying there is something to hide. I said it, I know you won’t like that but I don’t want to be popular, I want my boys to end up well. When you check the Bible very well, in 2Kings chapter 9 from verse 30 to 37, you will discover that the matron saints of makeup is Jezebel I am sure you have heard that name before? Alright, I think I have spoken enough to the boys. Let me talk to my girls. Number one: no matter how religious the brother may be, no matter how handsome, no matter how he can pray inn tongues, if he comes to you and want to marry you, ask him, have you a job? You will say, why are you asking that sir? In Genesis chapter 2, if you like you can read it from verse 15 to 25, God gave a job to Adam before he gave him a wife. Job first; wife later. If he has no job, how is he going to take care of the family? 1Timothy chapter 5 verse 8, the Bible made it clear, any man who cannot provide for his own home is worst than an infidel. If he says I want to marry you You will say, thank you sir, what job do you do? If he says I am a contractor Ask him to give you evidence of the contract he has executed before; otherwise, you will be the contract. Don’t marry a brother who tongue is too sweet. I hope my daughters are listening? The Bible says, he that flattereth (Proverbs 29 verse 5); he that flattereth is spreading a net for his feet. When somebody begin to say, huh, where have I been all this day? It looks as if the sun has just risen. I will tell you a story. You know, I was a bad boy before I became born-again. Something happened, and I only understood after I became born-again. There was this very beautiful lady and I was making some plans: Hello, hello lady, and she smiles of course. And the next was, your teeth are as white as snow, So, she smiled further. And l looking at your eyes is like taking a look at full moon. And your skin is like a polish ebony All of a sudden, she did something strange; she turned round and began to run. What is wrong with you? Where are you running too? Now I know, the Bible says flee When brother comes and he begin to like, your body is like that of a catfish in water, this and that, run! What do I say? Anyone who comes to you my dear daughter who says, thus saith the Lord, you are going to be my wife. Is that so? Okay sir. Do you believe in holiness? And he will say, of course, I am a child of God. I see! But you know, I am still man. Which of the ten commandment you don’t really agree with? That you find problem with? When the Bible says, thou shall not still You have a problem with that? No; even when I was not even born-again I was not a thief. Thou shall not kill How can I kill? You pinned him down there is only one of the ten commandment that he will say I am ordinary flesh, and that is where it says, thou shall not commit adultery – that is the only one. If he does not live in holiness, run. I know what I am talking about. I can give examples upon examples but I don’t I have the time. I pray for all of you my children, boys and girls, you will not fall into a trap. Alright. Let me talk a little bit of counsel to those of you who are married. You partner, your spouse, is given to you to be a prayer partner. Matthew 18 verse 19, when God says if two agrees as touching anything on earth, he is talking about you and your wife. Before you say you look for a prayer partner else, first of all, start with your husband or your wife. You see, because if the two of you are prayer partner, you will be able to bear your heart to each other because the two of you will know if I sink you sink. There many prayer partners that when you tell them things to pray for you have exposed yourself to the world. And that being the case, let there be no anger unresolved between the two of you before you go to bed. Ephesians chapter 4 verse 26 says you may be angry but you must not sin. Under no circumstances must the sun go down on your wrath. Several years when we are still younger and we can still have understanding like every young couple; particularly after I became born again, what had helped me is that I know this passage. Anything goes wrong between me and my wife, and you can be sure or at least ninety-five percent of the time I am the wrong one. Before we sleep, we settle. And I will give another reason while we do that; not only because God says, you must not allow the sun to go down on your anger, but there is a bigger reason which we will come to later. If you are married, take my counsel. I have been married since nineteen sixty-seven, by the grace of God I am still on honeymoon because under no circumstances will I go to bed without settling with my wife. Just a word for the wise! Let me begin to round up. And this one is for all of us – young, teenager, marriageable, married, elders – don’t forget that Jesus is coming soon. 1Corinthians 15 verse 51 to 58, the Bible made it clear, God is coming; Jesus is coming back and it will sudden and when He returns, it may be returning for you by death, … Because He said I am going to prepare a place for you; when I finish preparing the place, I will come for you As soon as your mansion is ready, He may come and pick you up Or it may be rapture; We don’t know which. But supposed it is by rapture because in the Name that is above every other name, you will not die young. Luke chapter 17 verse 34, the Bible says when the Lord will come; two people maybe on the same bed, husband and wife, and the trumpet sounds and one is taken and the other is left. Husband may be taken and the wife may be left; the wife may be taken and the husband maybe left. That is one of the reasons I don’t go to bed without unresolved issue between me and my wife. I don’t want God to come and take her away and live me on the bed. Be prepared He may come tonight. Every sign that is to precede is coming back has been fulfilled: Knowledge increasing, wars, rumors of wars, earthquake, etcetera, And in many of the places that you think they have not heard the gospel, unless there is no YouTube there. Where they say you cannot bring in the Bible; all you need to do buy and mobile phone when you get in there and make sure YouTube is there, you will hear my sermon He could return tomorrow; ask members of my family, the last prayer I pray every night is Lord, if you return before tomorrow morning don’t leave us behind. And I pray the same prayer for you, anytime He returns may you be ready. Keep that in mind; keep that in mind and remember that…, I believe it is my daughter who took the first talk who said so, ‘we brought nothing into this world and we will not take anything away, no matter how clever you think you are’. When you die, you won’t even be able to hold even the key to your save; we came naked, we will go naked. I know you don’t like it but that is excellent counsel. You better lay your treasures in heaven so that whenever the trumpet sound you will be ready to go. I remember one man, don’t let me mention the name of the town; he was rich and terribly misrely, He will follow the wife to the market to go and buy food; And he will come, the wife will cook the soup for him and he will carry it into his bedroom. He had a room, big room, full of money, he did not trust in bank then he died and his children came and they knew that room nobody is allowed to center, so, they knew that is he is keeping his money. And they search for the key they couldn’t not find the key; And then, one of the boys said this bastard he might have swallow the key o and so they carried his dead body head-down and began to slap and before you know it the key jumped out. True story o! You cannot take anything away. If they burry you with too many precious things, by the following morning you better go and check because grave robbers would have come and open the grave and throw your naked body over there. The Lord is coming and He is coming soon, and make sure you are ready all the time. I will tell you one more story and it will be time to pray. I travel to America, and my children in America they are very clever because anytime I am there they want to come early in the morning so they can do morning devotion. So, they will hire a very big accommodation, big sitting room so that many of us can be there; and then they have a bedroom; and the bedroom will have a toilet; the sitting room will have a toilet. And so, I fell asleep at night; when I woke up, I looked to my side my wife was not there, and I thought she has gone to the toilet, So, I went to the sitting room because there is another toilet there; and of course, the sitting room was empty, I mean the toile there. Then I came back and my wife was still not on the bed; haha, what is she doing? So, I went to the toilet of the bedroom and she was not there Haa! I went back to the living room, and I checked the door and the door from outside was locked from inside. Haa! Oh God, you mean she is gone! And I am left behind! I sat on the ground and I was trembling. Almighty God, what have I done? Why have You left me behind? I mean in the cold air condition room I was sweating. Thank God for the Holy Spirit, when all of a sudden, I remembered, on that particular trip she did not come with me. Now, you can laugh; but I am praying for you from the bottom of my heart: when the trumpet shall sound may you not be left behind. Which is while I am making an altar call now. Thank You Father. I want to say amen to this one before I tell you. I think I have heard this one before. The Lord is saying there is someone here tonight, He said very soon you will begin to enjoy My cup’s runs over. If you have not given your life to Jesus Christ, if you are pretending and trumpet sounds tomorrow and you are left behind, haa, may God never allow that to happen. But if you are not genuine child of God, if the blood of Jesus has not wash away your sins, and Jesus should arrive before the sun rises you won’t go with him; it does not matter your title If you are not washed in the blood, if you are not born-again, you won’t be able to go. But if you come to Him now and say Lord God Almighty save my soul, let Your blood wash away my sins, I will serve You hundred percent for the rest of my life, come quickly I am going to count from one to fifteen because I know some of you are coming from a distance; come and surrender your life to Jesus and I will pray for the salvation of your soul. I am counting now One, two, three, four, five, The choice is yours; you better come now and surrender your life to Him. Six, Move, move, move very quickly. Seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, Okay, those of you who are still on the way you will join as the rest of us will pray. Those of you who are already in front, cry to the Almighty God and say have mercy on me, please save my soul, let Your blood wash away my sin and I will serve You for the rest of my life. Go ahead, pray. And the rest of us let us stretch our hands to these people in front and intercede for them. Let us pray that the God who saved our own souls will save their souls also. Pray that God will give them genuine salvation. Thank You Father. Hurry up those of you who are still on the way because in the next few minutes I am going to pray for salvation. Thank You Father. Thank You Lord. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed. My Father and my God I want to thank You very much for Your word. And I want to thank You for those people who have come forward to surrender their lives today, please accept our thanks in Jesus’ name. Have mercy on these Your children, let Your blood wash away their sins, save their souls, write their names in the book of life, let them become true children of the Living God; and the ability to do Your will Father give unto them. And from now on anytime they cry unto You answer them by fire. And please Lord whenever You return, don’t leave them behind. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed. Amen. Praise the Lord. Now, I rejoice with those of you who have come forward to surrender your life to Jesus; I want to promise you that from now on by the grace of God I will be praying for you, so, I need to know your names, your address, and your prayer request. The Counselors will help me to collect the information I want and then you can go back to your seat. We will wait for you for few minutes before we proceed further. In the meantime, I believe the choir will minister to the Lord. Thank You Father. You may want to write down your prayer points very quickly Number one, you want to say thank You to the Almighty God for speaking to you tonight. Number two, say Father, please help me to honour my parents so I don’t die before my time. Number three, Father, please don’t let me ever forget You O Lord. Number four, please don’t let our youths fall into enemy traps. Number five, Father, let there be peace and harmony in my home. Number six, Father, help me to reach the top. Number seven, don’t let me miss heaven Father. Number eight, your own individual request. The altar is open and you are free to come and talk to the Lord. Pray with all your hearts because you have only about fifteen minutes to pray tonight; so, go ahead; talk to the Lord. Thank You Father. Hallelujah Lord. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed. The Almighty God will grant your request. If there is any way you have offended your parents, may God forgive you. In the mighty name of Jesus you will not die before your time. The Almighty God will help you reach the top. Even in your youth, God will pay you a visit. When you grow old, you will grow old gracefully. In every area where you need direction, God will guide you. The greatest desire of your heart will be given on to you. Even before you wake up tomorrow God will reach out to you. Now, my Father and my God, I commit all Your children who are of marriageable age into your hands, put an end to their loneliness; send the right people; don’t let them fall into any trap. If there are in any relationship that is not of You, Father, scatter it. Any evil plan of the devil concerning this Your children, I cancel it now. If there are forces standing between Your children and Your destiny for them, I decree that such forces be scattered. If there is anyone who says these Your children won’t marry, in their very presence, arrange the marriage of your children. My Father and my God, this year like never before, let wedding bells ring. Now that You say the door is open, my Father and my God let us have wonderful testimonies; let this night mark the turning point; even this time next month, let Your children be shouting for joy. In all our homes, let there be harmony, let there be peace, let there be shout of joy. In our old age, let us serve You more. And any form of sickness associated with old age Father, among all our elders, let that be completely cancelled. Help us O Lord; let us reach the top, let us stay at the top; all the desires of these Your children, Father give unto them; let this month be a month of favour for all of us. Help us O Lord and Your name shall be glorified. Thank You Almighty God. For in Jesus mighty name we have prayed. Amen. Well, if you receive your own shout a big hallelujah.
