On September 22, 2024, when congregants gathered in The SCOAN for another glorious Sunday Service, they began with a session of prayer combined with praise and worship. They asked for the forgiveness of their sins and expressed gratitude for another day of grace, mercy, favour and compassion, knowing that all of God’s blessings are for the ultimate salvation of their souls. They besought the Lord in song thus: “I’ll Bring My Guilt/Before The Blood Of The Lamb/So That He Can Pray Through Me.”

With God’s Word in Ephesians 5:19 on their minds, congregants launched into many more worship songs that called down the Host of Heaven, leaving many falling under the anointing as the light of God shone upon them. They declared the Lord the Centre of it all, hailing Him: “Be Thou Exalted, O Lord/Let Your Glory Be Above All The Earth!” And the Lord was indeed too faithful to disappoint them!

For his message, Evangelist Chisom read from John 14:23 and Matthew 5:14-16 as he spoke on the topic “Be Your Testament”. He noted that obedience to God’s Word is the proof of our obedience to Him. He put it in interesting words: “The life you live should be the louder preacher of the Word of God.” As he went deeper into the message, he cited verses such as John 14:23, Isaiah 29:13, Acts 11:26, John 14:15 and Ephesians 5:1-2.

Evangelist Chisom charged believers to not only confess Jesus Christ with their mouths but also to show their love for Him through their lifestyles. He insisted that regular church attendance and knowledge of the Scriptures were not enough proof of loving God. “You have to be your testament,” he asserted. According to him, “We are made spiritual by living in the Word and by the Word living in us.”

Evangelist Chisom therefore noted that only doers of the Word receive from the Lord, for God does not reward mere intellect, eloquence or smartness. Obedience, not knowledge, he said, is the key. Obeying God, he continued, consists in showing love to those around us by fighting for them, praying for them and working generally to improve their mental, emotional, physical and spiritual conditions. He concluded thus: “Instead of condemning your neighbour, do good to change the bad that you see. Do love. Follow in the light of love. And let love lead.”

Covered By His Arms Of Love And Mercy

Pastor Evelyn Joshua said to the people, “It is another beautiful day in the sight of God.”

Before starting the Prayer Line ministration, the woman of God looked up to Heaven: “Father Lord, we bless Your holy name. Thank You for Your grace, thank You for Your love, thank You for all the beautiful things You have been doing in our lives. Almighty God, we ask You today for Your arms of love and mercy to hold us. Father, cleanse us of our sins and unrighteousness; purify our body, soul and spirit, in the name of Jesus Christ.

Pastor Mrs Evelyn TB Joshua giving a opening praying at the prayerline.

Almighty God, turn every doubt within us into strong faith. Holy Spirit, the Giver of the gift of love, understanding, fear of God – He who reconciles all things in Christ Jesus – Father, reconcile us back to You, in the name of Jesus Christ! Almighty God, we know that all things will work for our good today. As we stand against all that stands against our good destiny, Father, restore our health, lives, freedom, in the name of Jesus Christ!”

It was a morning when petitioners kept James 5:15 on their minds: “And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.” Thus, the prayer of forgiveness and healing swept away cases of difficulty in walking, asthma, swollen belly, hernia, and goitre.

Indeed, as Ephesians 6:12 states, the people did not wrestle against flesh and blood but God’s Spirit dispelled every shade of darkness around them!

And Their Goliaths Crumbled!

At the start of the Mass Prayer session, Pastor Evelyn Joshua said to congregants: “May your heart’s desires be granted, in Jesus’ name.”

The woman of God read from Isaiah 41:10-13 and told the people: “Ask God to set you free from anything that will hinder you from asking and receiving today.” She prayed: “Father Lord, we ask for Your mercy, favour, compassion. Every burden in the life of Your children – we remove it today, in the name of Jesus Christ! Any kind of filthy garment in the lives of Your children – Father, let it be removed today, in the name of Jesus Christ! Every power that holds you down to stagnation – be loosed today, in the name of Jesus Christ! Every power of setback, career failure – be loosed today, in the name of Jesus Christ!”

Pastor Evelyn Joshua further prayed: “Every power that holds you down to where you do not belong – be loosed today, in the name of Jesus Christ! We command the healing power of Jesus on you today! Be healed from all affliction, from all disease, from all pain wherever it may be located! Healing in your bones, in your body, in your soul, in your blood!”

Evangelist Ope tells the people to pray: “Son of David, by Your divine mercy, favour – every contrary spirit operating in my life – Out!”

Evangelist James urges the people to declare: “You unclean spirit, you familiar spirit, you ancestral spirit – the cause of nightmares, shame, pain – I command you: Out, in the name of Jesus!”

Evangelist Joseph charges the people to decree: “Whatever may have been planted in my body by demons – be uprooted, in the name of Jesus! You sickness in my body – I command you: Out!”

Evangelist Chisom tells the people to declare: “You unclean spirit – anywhere you are, within or without, blocking my way, business, finances – I command you, in the name of Jesus: Out! You spirit causing me delay, limitation, frustrating my business, frustrating my efforts – anywhere you are, out!”

Finally, the woman of God referred to 1 Samuel 17:37 and urged viewers all over the world to confront the Goliath in their lives. “Any Goliath in your life is a wall,” she explained. She then prayed: “We command those walls of fear, intimidation, challenges in your life to crumble, in the name of Jesus Christ! Be freed from every bondage, from every cage! Cage of poverty, cage of sickness, cage of generational curse – crumble, in the name of Jesus Christ! Every wall that satan may have built around you – we ask it to crumble today, in the name of Jesus Christ!”

In a Mass Prayer video, Prophet TB Joshua urged the people to decree: “You devil in my finances, family, business – I command you, in the name of Jesus: Leave! Sin’s power over your life – be broken, in the name of Jesus! Evil thoughts – be broken, in the name of Jesus!” The man of God then led congregants to say the prayer of salvation.

Testimonies

Rescued From The Idols Of Her Father’s House!

Chinaza was born by parents who had lost several children before having her and her brother. “My mother said she had taken us to a witch doctor who made incisions on our backs as a way of protecting us,” she said on September 22, 2024 during her testimony. She told of how her life had been plagued by many issues, including in her education and later in her vocation and business. She continued, “I used to have dreams in which an old woman appeared to me and I started to look like an old person in real life.” She said that the dreams used to cause her to lose things in the real world. On September 15, she had been in The SCOAN for the prayer of deliverance. “I was uncomfortable while inside the church, but after the evangelist prayed for me, I became light.” Now people no longer see her as an old woman. “With God, all things are possible,” she told congregants. Chinaza’s aunt, Ngozi, corroborated the testimony and glorified God for it. “Chinaza is no longer the aggressive person she used to be,” Ngozi said. She added, “Now she looks fresh and young, and that makes me happy.” Ngozi urged others not to give up on people.

Anointing Expels Spirit Wife And Pornographic Addiction

During the deliverance session of the service of September 15, 2024, the demons in Baba had thought they could resist God’s power. But they were wrong, for the fire of the Holy Ghost sent them out with dispatch. “I used to join my grandmother in slaughtering the animals that she used for sacrifices,” he said a week later. As Baba grew older, he decided to stop participating in the rituals. “My grandmother asked me not to leave home, but I did,” he explained. He then narrated how he had struggled all through. “I kept losing jobs,” he disclosed, “and my life was a huge mess.” Later, Baba fell into the addiction of pornography. “I struggled so hard but couldn’t break free from it,” he said. He would have strange dreams in which he slept with women and found himself in places that he had long left. A series of deaths also occurred in his family, taking no fewer than four persons within a short while. Since his deliverance, however, Baba has stopped having those dreams and has been rid of the spirit of addiction, even as his breathing problems have vanished. “Challenges are meant to take us closer to God,” he told others.

Anointing Rescues Businessman From Jaws Of Death

Monday, a Nigerian businessman, had been grounded since developing lumbar spondylosis that led to difficulty in walking. “I couldn’t travel around for my business despite managing to get medical treatment abroad,” he said on September 22, 2024. Sometime in 2022, he had been on an international trip when he experienced bleeding from the nose and mouth during a stopover in an Asian city. “When a doctor checked me, he found that my blood pressure was so high that he expected I would have died,” he said. The doctor then stuffed thick cotton wool into Monday’s nostrils, instructing him to breathe only through his mouth. “Via the phone, my wife asked about my Anointing Water and I ministered it and the bleeding stopped,” he said. Tests then confirmed many issues with Monday’s health and booked him for a flight to Lagos via Ghana. Further tests in Ghana revealed even more troubles in his body – stroke, liver dysfunction, cervical spondylosis, etc. Not discouraged, Monday made his way to The SCOAN for prayer on June 16, 2024. “The woman of God prayed for me and from then on I have remained healed,” he asserted, disclosing that he now has a clean bill of health. Now he can breathe and walk well – for the glory of God! His swollen body has also returned to its normal state. He advised others to believe God truly. “Serve God with all your heart and seek Him alone during challenging times,” he urged others. His Ghanaian wife, Helen, confirmed the family’s distress during the crisis. “I couldn’t eat for over a week,” she recalled. “I am grateful to God for not making me a widow,” she said tearfully. “Run to God for solutions to your problems,” she urged others.
