Read the recap of The SCOAN Sunday Service held on October 18, 2026, featuring sermon ‘Stop Comparing Yourself To Others’, along with other events.

The SCOAN Sunday Service: The SCOAN Choir
The SCOAN Choir
Expectedly, it was on a note of meditation and supplication that God’s people began the service of October 18, 2026. After several minutes of prayer during which they made numerous faith assertions, the congregation switched to melodious worship. “Son Of David, Have Mercy On Me!” they pled, realising the compassionate Lord had never given them the judgment they truly deserve.



“Why Should I Fear/When I have You?” they asked, quickly affirming that they are “Surrounded By Your Everlasting Love”.

In further declaration of the Lord’s boundlessness, the church sang: “You Are Yahweh/Alpha And Omega!” And as their voices ascended to heaven, the people witnessed an outpouring of God’s Spirit upon them, leading to many manifestations of the anointing. “Yahweh, We Worship You!” they proclaimed.



The SCOAN Sunday Service: Testimonies (October 18, 2026)

“Now I No Longer Walk Like An Old Woman,” Ngozi Testifies
Here is her testimony:
As 60-year-old Ngozi sat for prayer in The SCOAN on October 11, 2026, she did so with a heart full of faith.
It was therefore no surprise that the anointing penetrated her limbs so intensely that she couldn’t hold back her tears.
Clearly, the Master Surgeon was working on her system, expelling all that had been responsible for osteoarthritis in her body. “It had started one morning, when I suddenly found I couldn’t move my limbs,” she said on October 18.
She narrated how she had been taken to hospital afterwards and given various medications. “Some of the medications spiked my blood pressure,” she disclosed.
Now ready to claim her believer’s authority, Ngozi had made her way to the church. “My body started vibrating as I received prayer,” she recalled.

“Now I no longer walk like an old woman,” she asserted a week after her healing. Her husband Paul said, “Seeing her free gives our family joy.” He advised others to trust in God’s power.
She advised the people: “Trust in God’s power”

Delivered From Household Idols, Set Free For Exploits!
Here is his testimony:
Elvis, a Cameroonian living in South Africa, was among the recipients of prayer on October 11, 2026 during The SCOAN Sunday Service.
“My grandparents and parents were idol worshippers,” he began a week later. He explained how he and other siblings had received incisions on their bodies during rituals.
“Every first male in the family received the indigenous name ‘Atsia’, meaning ‘Stone’,” Elvis said. He also stated that the name had made it difficult for him to get a visa until he had changed it.
“All our firstborns are left-handed,” Elvis added. But the incisions didn’t do any good for Elvis. “I was making money but wasn’t able to put it to any meaningful use,” he said. The situation was also the same with Elvis’ siblings.
“I was afflicted with the spirit of anger and always believed I was right,” he admitted. Despite his efforts to unite his family, Elvis always ended up alienating them.
“I also had issues with my wife despite her kindness towards me,” he continued. Although Elvis had tried to come to The SCOAN on several occasions, his plans had failed to materialise, until his 21-year-old son presented him with flight tickets for Lagos, Nigeria.
“At that point, I knew I had to make the trip,” he said. “As the evangelist approached me, I felt something like an electric shock,” Elvis recalled. After the prayer, Elvis felt power return to his system.

His libido has improved and he has broken free from the spirit of anger. Moreover, his business has been improving and he is now relating better with his family members and workers.

Now, Fyne Is Fine Indeed!
Here is her testimony:
One night, Fyne had been having a dream in which she saw some people trying to tie up an animal.
“Along the line, the animal resisted,” Fyne remembered. When she woke up, Fyne felt pain all over her body. “I couldn’t move by myself,” she said, “and had to start taking various drugs,” she said on October 18, 2026.
The week before, she had received prayer in The SCOAN as the evangelists ministered. “I had felt a loosening of my legs once the evangelist touched me,” she said.
Since then, Fyne has been fine indeed. Her husband Christian expressed his delight. “Now I am relieved,” he said, urging others to trust in God.
She advised the people: “Run to God”

An End To Osteoarthritis Of The Hips!
Here is her testimony:
Also blessed with a touch from Heaven on October 11, 2026 was Helen, who had been suffering from osteoarthritis of the hips.
Helen, who had been engaging in farming, had tried all sorts of remedies, including herbal therapy. “The situation did not get better,” she said on October 18, 2026, during her testimony.
On receiving prayer, she got up expecting to heal gradually. “When I got home, however, I discovered I could lie down without feeling any pain,” she said.

Today. Helen is back to perfect health. Her daughter Mmesoma blessed God for the healing.

A Delivery Backed By Heaven!
Here is her testimony:
Two years after her first child, Titilola started trying for another baby. But the expected result was not coming.
One morning, she woke up with pain. Then she went to hospital. “They said I had pelvic inflammatory disease,” she told the church on October 18, 2026. She got treatment for the issue.
Later, however, she received prayer in The SCOAN. “I fell pregnant shortly afterwards,” Titilola confirmed.
A subsequent test then showed that the baby was in breech. “I ran back to the church for prayer,” she said. “After the woman of God prayed for me, the baby went to the normal position,” Titilola said.

Again, however, the devil tried to strike. But the Lord was with Titilola. “I prayed with my faith tools and called the Emmanuel TV Prayer Line,” she said.
In the end, Titilola had her baby without surgery. She and her mother blessed the Lord for the testimony. “We thank You, Lord,” they said.

No Longer A Street Fighter, Drunk Or Gambler!
Here is his testimony:
“I want to kill him,” declared the demon in Simon during the Prayer Line ministration of the service of October 4, 2026.
He had come from a family where they worshipped idols. “I used to participate in different rituals while growing up,” he said on October 18, 2026.
While in secondary school, Simon joined bad company, always staying back to smoke and take hard drinks. At home, he was quite a stubborn child. “I gave my parents a hard time,” he admitted.
Meanwhile, Simon started having bad dreams, which he constantly shared with his parents. “They kept encouraging me to pray,” he said. In the bid to make quick money, Simon took his friends’ advice to relocate to Lagos, where they started a life of crime. “I was living a fake life,” he said, telling of his life as a gambler and street fighter.
Luckily for him, however, Simon had a believer as his boss. “He invited me to come to his church,” Simon said. And so was it that God’s Spirit fell upon Simon on October 4, 2026!

Since then, he has turned a new leaf – no longer smoking or drinking. Simon has now had confirmatory dreams proving his new life in Jesus Christ.
Simon’s boss, Amusa, disclosed how he had met the younger man. Amusa had refused to give up on Simon even when the latter had caused him the loss of a bus costing over 12 million naira. “The bus got ruined in an accident,” Amusa said.
To the glory of God, however, Simon has now become a transformed person indeed.
He advised the youths: “Stay off street life and avoid bad friends”.

“Only God Can Take You Out Of Darkness,” Says Davis
Here is his testimony:
At age 13, Davis had started experimenting with smoking and drinking. “After running numerous cigarette-buying errands for a relative, I had decided to have a try at it,” Davis said at the start of his testimony on October 18, 2026.
Davis became a source of trouble for his family. “I couldn’t stay with my immediate family or relatives,” he said.
As a homeless person who lived on the street, Davis was forced to join a cult as a form of protection. Davis also approached a spiritualist for fortification. “I started dreaming about a crocodile lifting me on its back and also chasing after me,” he continued.
As part of the rituals, Davis was fortified against gunshots and machete cuts. As his reputation grew on the street, Davis felt an emptiness that he couldn’t describe.
The more he went into crime, the less fulfilled he became. “I was always angry and getting into fights, eventually getting arrested for slapping a pregnant young woman,” Davis explained.
Tired of his situation, however, Davis approached an aunty of his for help. “She managed to send money to me so I could come to the church,” he said.
On the way to the church, Davis had felt something come out of his eyes. “My eyes reddened but I managed to make it into the church,” he went on.
Upon receiving a touch in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Davis fell under the power of the anointing.

“Now I no longer dream about the crocodile and my heart is full of peace,” he said.
Davis’ aunt, Helen, narrated how she had made relentless efforts to get Davis to church. “He is now staying with me and is no longer doing drugs,” she told the church. Helen advised parents and guardians to take care of their children and wards.
He advised the people: “Only God can take you out of darkness”.

When A Lost Child Retraced His Steps To Jesus Christ!
Here is his testimony:
“We are legion,” declared the demon in Moses on August 23, 2026, during the deliverance session of The SCOAN Sunday Service.
The demon said it had wanted Moses to work for satan’s kingdom, after afflicting him with illness. Moses had been an aspiring footballer who had gone for trials in Ghana sometime in 2011.
In Ghana, he had constantly attracted strange people. “They used to call me ‘Elder’ and ‘Stubborn’,” he said on October 18, 2026.
On returning to Nigeria, Moses had continued in bad company. “I joined fetish people and ran after masquerades,” he said. He was also always getting involved in street fights, leading to stomach stabbing that Moses failed to treat properly.
Later, the stabbing resulted in kidney issues. “I started urinating blood,” he said. It was at this point that Moses called on his mother for help. “She took me to the clinic and later brought me to the church for prayer,” Moses said.
Since his deliverance, Moses has lost the urge to smoke, drink or fight. He has also stopped having bad dreams, even as his kidney problem has vanished.
His mother Janet told of her frustrations in restraining Moses from a life of crime, including countless visits to police stations and paying off numerous debts. As a devoted mother, Janet persisted in guiding Moses back to the church, where he had been raised.
To the glory of the Lord, after Moses received the prayer of healing and deliverance, he became a new creature.

As he ended his testimony, Moses prostrated himself and apologised to his mother for all the pain he had caused her and the rest of the family.
He advised the people: “Choose your friends with care.“
SCOAN Sunday Service: Stop Comparing Yourself To Others
LISTEN TO THE SERMON TITLED: Stop Comparing Yourself To Others
Reading from Acts 19:11-16, Galatians 6:4 and Romans 12:4-5, among other texts, Evangelist Chisom gave a sermon entitled “Stop Comparing Yourself To Others”.


He began by noting that many forget they are created as unique individuals, who therefore do not need to imitate or copy anyone else in order to achieve success.


Copying others, he continued, does not necessarily lead to getting similar results like them. When such results fail to happen, he went on, the imitators become frustrated, not realising they limited their own chances by failing to do what they love, which “brings peace and tranquility”.
A Sermon On Being Oneself
Further reading from Philippians 4:12-13, 3 John 1:11, Proverbs 15:16, Genesis 4:1-12 and Luke 18:9-14, Evangelist Chisom charged the congregation to look inwards and identify their special God-given talent that will stand them out in the crowd.


He asked pointedly, “Don’t you know you are unique? Don’t you know that there is no one and there can be no one quite like you?”
Consequently, he warned against comparing oneself with others or focusing on what others have that one does not.As he closed the sermon, the evangelist urged the people to rely on God’s Word as a guide for leading a worthy life of contentment.


The SCOAN Sunday Service: Prayerline Session (October 18, 2026)
Pastor Evelyn Joshua
With a song on her lips as she joined the people for the Prayer Line ministration, Pastor Evelyn Joshua thanked God for the many testimonies shared earlier. She prayed that more of the people would have testimonies to share, for the glory of the Lord.


The woman of God prayed: “Father, we give You thanks for Your loving-kindness. We thank You for Your peace, mercy and faithfulness. We thank You for Your protection and direction. Father Lord, give us the desire to love You more and more, in the name of Jesus. Thank You for who You are. Almighty God, accept our thanks, in the name of Jesus.”
Pastor Evelyn Joshua At The Prayer Line
Pastor Evelyn Joshua then moved to lay anointed hands on the sick, the afflicted and the spiritually oppressed. Relying on the power in the name of Jesus Christ, she commanded an end to every infirmity in the people’s lives.



For those seeking the fruit of the womb and safe delivery, the woman of God assured them of God’s protection and provision. “You are free,” she told each person after prayer.



Standing on the believer’s authority, the woman of God also pronounced healing on cases such as skin disease, stroke, mental disorder, piles, sickle cell anaemia, fibroids and glaucoma, among others.



The SCOAN Evangelists
Equally ministering alongside Pastor Evelyn Joshua were The SCOAN Evangelists, who asserted their Sonship in Jesus Christ as they battled the kingdom of darkness and its agents
Other cases that received attention were swollen belly, leg ulcer, goitre, prostate cancer, heart problem, severe back pain, and osteoarthritis, all of which bowed to the anointing.









One-On-One Deliverance Session
And during the One-On-One Session, every stubborn demon had no choice but to bow to the anointing that heals, delivers and blesses. Thank You, Jesus!

Pastor Evelyn Joshua

SCOAN Sunday Service: Pastor Evelyn Joshua
“Get ready to receive from God,” Pastor Evelyn Joshua told the people when the Mass Prayer Session started.
She prayed, “Every form of stagnation, affliction, barrenness, captivity in your life – be removed, in the name of Jesus! All that has withered in your career, business, relationship – be revived, restored, in the name of Jesus Christ, by the Blood of Jesus Christ and by the power of the Holy Ghost!


May God Almighty set the heart of your helper to favour you, in the name of Jesus! Be favoured as you go out and come in.”

Evangelist Ope asked the people to pray: “Every spirit from the pit of hell frustrating my efforts, anywhere you are, hear the voice of God. That spirit frustrating my life, anywhere you are hiding – Holy Ghost Fire!”
Next, Evangelist James asked the church to pray: “You spirit from my past hindering my present – I command you out, in the name of Jesus!”

SCOAN Sunday Service: Prophet TB Joshua
In a Mass Prayer video, Prophet TB Joshua decreed: “Every sickness, wherever it is, I command it out! Jesus’ healing hand is on you. Whatever is in your blood, kidneys, organs – I command it out right now! That sickness, that affliction – wherever you have that pain, I command it out, in the name of Jesus! Let the Spirit of God abide in you, in the name of Jesus!”
