IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AND IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN
Every act of God is ordained for unending re-enactment for those who are interested in seeing such things in their lives (Psalm 119:144, 111). Whatever might have happened before, it is ordained to happen again for anyone who desires it.

Let me also say, by way of reminder, supernatural Church growth is not our ambition: it’s the agenda of the God-head for the end time – God the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.
Micah 4:1-2
It is our heavenly Father’s agenda: He wants all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth as made available in Church (1 Timothy 2:4).
He wanted it so badly that He gave His only begotten Son to make it happen (John 3:16).

It’s also the agenda of Jesus Christ the Son of the Living God (John 12:32). He went to the Cross to see all men drawn to the Church because that’s where He dwells (Hebrews 12:22-24).
Supernatural Church growth is the agenda of the Son, He went to the Cross to actualise it. Thank You Jesus.
When the Son rose from the dead, He said, “go to all the world and preach the gospel” (Mark 16:15, Matthew 24:14).

What about the Holy Ghost? “It is expedient for you that I go away for if I go not away the Comforter will not come but when I go I will send Him to you. When He is come, He convict the entire world of sin, of righteousness and of judgement” (John 16:7-8).
We saw Him come on the day of Pentecost, they were pricked in their hearts, were convicted and 3,000 people got saved first day. Second day: 4,000; 5,000; then multitudes of men and women were added to the Church.
It’s the agenda of the Holy Ghost.

It’s not our ambition, it’s not the ambition of any Church or Ministry: it’s God’s agenda for the end time (Ezekiel 36:37). We are running with Heaven’s agenda and He is backing it up because it is His agenda.
God does not back up your own idea, He backs up His own agenda (Mark 16:20). Great Churches will keep rising in this end time in their numbers. Churches will grow to become cities without walls: we have not seen anything yet, that’s God’s agenda for the end time. Praise God.

We saw that in the Acts of the Apostles, we will be seeing that in increasing dimensions in these last days – ‘almost the whole city gathered together to hear the word of God’ (Acts 13:44).
Please note that God is a multitude loving and multitude drafting God (John 15:8, Proverbs 14:28, John 6:44, Acts 2:47).
When Jesus came: we saw multitudes gathered, then we saw very great multitudes, then we saw innumerable multitudes.
We are in the era of innumerable multitudes in the Body of Christ, get ready for it.
When you see a very good stock in the market, you take a strong position so as to maximise your investments and what more – in the growth of the Church lies the glory of the saints (Jeremiah 30:19).
That’s what we are seeing:
– Captains of industry rising in their numbers.
– Inventors rising in their numbers.
– Great institutions coming up from Church.
In the growth of the Church lies the glory of the saints, take position on time and keep driving it.
We haven’t seen anything yet.
And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of men and cattle therein (Zechariah 2:4).

As they gave themselves to prayers and ministry of the Word, the Bible says, “the Word of God increased and the disciples were MULTIPLIED greatly…” (Acts 6:7).
He is a multiplier God (Deuteronomy 1:11). He is able to multiply us a thousand times more than we are. Tomorrow Sunday, we will see wonders.
– Every single prayer you have uttered, you will find the answer speaking.
– Every soul you reached out to, you’ll find them arriving here before you.
Stay awake: It’s your era of opportunity!
Watch the change of story that has always accompanied those that engage in truth and in deed:
– Well, they must hear your testimony!
– They must hear your testimony!!!
– The world must hear the testimony of the Lord in your life! Amen

It’s not being ambitious, over ambitious: that’s not true. We’ve been talking about what God did across Nigeria through the Church Planting wonder for the year, we’ve not been talking about the Foreign Missions:
– As at last Sunday, we had 724 Churches planted across 35 nations.
– Awesome God: lock down or lock up, it doesn’t matter. When God speaks, everything bows.
– So in total, we have over 11,000 Churches planted this year by the hand of God.
It is His agenda for the time (Isaiah 11:9). Church will be everywhere pumping the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, changing and transforming lives by the Word.
– You are in your season. Grace not to abuse it, receive it now!
– Tomorrow everyone should believe God to come with at least one brand new soul without losing touch with the ones God has used you to bring before.
– Let today be your mop-up operation in honour of Jesus (1 Samuel 2:30).
– If bearing much fruits glorifies God, then the time to glorify you has come.

What is somebody’s problem that somebody is bringing somebody to Church, “that money is much” (documented testimony). Is it your money, did she borrow money from you? No.
They are just there, people are like that, you find some fellows, they are just anti-God’s agenda. I don’t discuss my moves and walk with God with anybody. I just carry my ‘kaya’ (baggage) and move. If you are interested as you see God and God’s hand upon my life, you join. If you are not interested, God bless you.
Just wake up.
He (God) said, “Abraham walk with Me. Don’t bother about people’s opinion, just walk with me.”
– Somebody will have his glorious destiny fast forwarded this time.
– Somebody will do something today, the result that will show tomorrow will earn him Heaven’s commendation.
– When God commends; He promotes, He elevates.
Men’s commendation are mere accolades, adjectives of convenience – “you are a great man, you are so powerful, you are so dedicated.”
God says, “you don’t know who you are talking about. He is just having fun.”
When God says, “well done”; you are set for the next level.
…have thou authority over 10 cities (Luke 19:17). He commends and proves His commendation by your change of position.
– Somebody will earn Heaven’s commendation today as you sit down in your room, then you call those individuals, “tomorrow is our Covenant Day of Exemption, come for the mark of Jesus that will exempt you from all evil, to be on your forehead.”
Somebody was there in Festac area or Satellite when an inferno, a fire outburst through a gas breakage or something: burnt all the shops on this side, jumped her shop and burnt all the shops on the other side. Her shop was left intact, only the dustbin that was outside. You can’t touch the substance, only that shop was standing out because she got the mark of Jesus on her body.
From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the MARKS OF THE LORD JESUS (Galatians 6:17).
– You are going to have that mark tomorrow by the Word.
– The prophetic Word will exempt you from what afflicts and torments others.
Do you still remember the testimony…in Port Harcourt? How fire burnt off 2 or 3 filling stations, burnt about 16 cars and his car was in the midst of the fire: not touched, not even the tires, no smell of fire on it.
– Everyone in that Service tomorrow will receive the mark of Christ on their lives that will make them and turn them to ‘touch not entities’ on the earth.
– All that happened in Egypt like we prayed will be repeated. You won’t feel the heat of the environment.
– You won’t know the heat of the environment
Where is the lock down effect on this Church? Zero. It does not exist.
Also help out to reach out to any challenged winner that you know around you, that is yet to report in Church since the lock down was locked down.
Some out of fear – bail them out of it.
Some challenged and grievously so – let us know what their issues are. The ones you can’t handle by yourself, pass it on to the Church system and they will take care of them. Our job is to be sure that every saved soul here makes it to Heaven.
It is not unspiritual to be challenged, but it is anti-covenant to be defeated.
Wake up and tell yourself, “I have no option.”
If you say God is not good: try the devil. You know the meaning of the devil – ‘the evil’, that ‘d’ means ‘the’. He came to steal, kill and to destroy (John 10:10).
No one can make your life better than God who gave it to you. No one can fix your car better than the manufacturer who made it.
Please reach out to them (challenged Winners’) in love. Some are challenged on their jobs. Some have lost their jobs, some have business challenges because of the long term lock down. Let’s be part of their joy and then reach out to them in love.
– Well, it is going to be a full blown harvest service tomorrow!!!
– Under that prophetic covering, any devil or its agents hurting after your life for evil will go down for you.
– Saul sent some fellows to go and capture David: they just joined them and started prophesying. Second batch – same. He said, “these people are playing games, so he went.” God smote him, he was naked, prophesying all night.
– There are coverings and there are Coverings.
– Under this Covering, any devil that dares you will pay for it.
o He will not be able to reach you.
o He will pay for it in the name of Jesus.

Please with all excitement, reach out; let every of your converts and invitees know something is awaiting them in this service tomorrow.
Please be reminded that we have our Sunday Gospel Raid: you are coming into Church in the morning, there are so many services…so stand by, miss the first service, carry somebody for the second service. If you come for the first service, go out there and bring somebody to the third service. You are coming for the third service, finish on time, run out there: they are all on the streets waiting for who will say, “Jesus loves you.”
– As you keep doing that, God is marking. God is not unrighteous to forget. God keeps records so as to reward individuals for their labour.
– Your labour shall be openly rewarded.
– That family came forth with a son (documented testimony). Can you use N7,000 a week to buy a son? No.
You are carrying palm oil, don’t play with those who are carrying laterite; they will spoil your palm oil, it will not sell.
– Jealously guard your destiny, you don’t have a spare!!!
– Many of us have been called several names until they are tired. Everybody knows that any name they call you now is envy, there is nothing there. It’s raw envy, bitterness and that won’t change God’s mind.
– The mockery of men will pave way for the deluge of the glory of God in your life.

SPEAK TO THE DAY:
– Speak to this day as a productive fruitful day.
– A day of great strides for the Kingdom.
– A day of praying for your converts to be established.
– A day of praying for every invitees of yours to show up tomorrow.
– A day of praying for any challenged Winner to be rescued by your hand.
– A day of praying for grace to minister to the needs of people to the level of God’s blessings on your life.

– The grace of God goes with you today. My God will make you to laugh at the end of this.
– Before November 29th, God has turned any form of mourning around you to dancing.
– God’s visitation that made Sarah to laugh will make you to laugh.
– What nobody could imagine happen with you shall become the order of the day in your life. So shall it be.
– Be blessed: you and your household.
– For every of your input since the year began, you shall openly rewarded.
– For every prayer you prayed in your closet, you shall be openly rewarded.
– For every soul you helped in one way or the other, you shall be openly rewarded.
– No one in your lineage will need to be run after to follow God: your children will be more zealous than you are.
– No one of you will bury your children.
– No one here will die young.
– Long life is part of your package for serving God and the interest of His Kingdom: your life shall not be cut short.
– Nothing fails in your hand anymore.
– Every closed door against you is re-opened today.
– Every closed door against your business is re-opened today.
– Every closed door against your family is re-opened today.

Some are praying; others are going out; others are doing both; others are still serving in Sanctuary, in Ushering: in all labour there is profit.
– Well get ready for multi-faceted rewards showing up from every area of your stewardship.
If you do 3 different kinds of job, you will earn from the 3 sources, so you are entitled to it.
– Deluge of returns is coming your way.
– For your financial stewardship: deluge of financial fortune is coming your way.
– For everywhere you have been engaging creatively, God’s wisdom is being multiplied in your life.
– Be blessed. Well tomorrow, there shall be no room in the inn. All the overflows will overflow in the name of Jesus and there shall be no hitches whatsoever.
– You are part of this Movement, advancement is your portion!!
– You are part of this Mission, a change of position is your portion!
