Read the recap of The SCOAN Sunday Service held on March 22, 2026, featuring sermon ‘Don’t Allow The Devil’, along with other events.
Key Events Highlights
The SCOAN Sunday Service: The SCOAN Choir
With those bold lyrics, the congregation asserted the reality of God’s power during the worship session of the Sunday Service of March 22, 2026. Earlier they had asked for the help of the Holy Spirit in seeing them through the day.
And as the service carried on it was clear their request had been granted to the fullest, for many were the manifestations of God’s presence during the ministration.
Realising it was by the Lord’s mercies they were not consumed, the people had declared their victory over the spirit of fear, asserting thus: “I Am No Longer A Slave To Fear/I Am A Child Of God!”
As the auditorium heated up further with the fire of the Holy Spirit, the church proclaimed, “Dry Bones Shall Rise Again!” And so did everything fall into place in the lives of the people, for they had acknowledged Elohim, the Ancient Of Days of whom there is none to compare.
The SCOAN Sunday Service Testimonies (March 22, 2026)
Tochukwu No Longer A Candidate For Death!
On 17 November 2024, 44-year-old Tochukwu was in The SCOAN for prayer over the problem of goitre.
Here is her testimony:
Twice, I was rushed to the hospital for typhoid and malaria. At first, I didn’t really understand what was wrong with me despite the initial diagnosis.
At some point, I became so frail that people thought I had contracted something very serious.
Subsequent tests, however, revealed that I had a problem with my thyroid gland—my hormone levels were abnormally high.
Along the way, I got the Anointing Sticker and began declaring healing upon myself. As I prayed with it, I vomited what I believed were poisonous substances.
Later, I came to Lagos. When Pastor Evelyn Joshua prayed for me, I felt something leave my body. I continued prophesying life over myself.
When I returned home, I kept holding on to my victory and declaring my healing. In no time, I fully regained my health.
When I went back to the hospital, the doctors were pleasantly surprised by the sudden turnaround in my condition. My lab results confirmed that my thyroid gland had returned to normal.
In addition to my healing, my husband and I also experienced a boost in our finances. Our business began to flourish, and we were able to remodel and expand our house.
For advice, She told the people: ”Trust in God’s power.”
Ten Years After, Prosper Keeps His Sheets Dry!
By the dawn of the year 2002, Prosper was already five years old. “I was no longer bed-wetting at that time,” he said as he started his testimony on March 22, 2026.
Here is his testimony:
However, one morning in February that year, my family and I were shocked to discover that I had returned to bed-wetting. It was a very difficult time for me and my supportive family.
We fasted and prayed earnestly over the situation, but nothing seemed to change—until early in 2016.
That was when my family and I discovered Emmanuel TV. I prayed along with Prophet T.B. Joshua that day, and from that moment, the bed-wetting stopped completely.
Since that day, I have not wet my bed again, and I have come to give God all the glory.
His mother and sister said, “I give thanks to God.”
For advice, They told the people: ”Have faith in God’s power to deliver you from all of life’s issues. Keep trusting in God.”
Esther’s Leg Pain Vanishes In An Instant!
Esther, a teacher, had suffered a leg injury during an outing. “I got treated,” she said on March 22, 2026, “but the severe pain remained.”
I couldn’t do my chores at home or even keep up with my schoolwork because of the pain. In that condition, I came to The SCOAN for prayer on January 4, 2026.
When Pastor Evelyn Joshua prayed for me, I felt something leave my leg. From that moment, everything changed.
Since that day, I have returned to my normal activities both at home and in school because all the pain is completely gone.
For advice, She told the people:“With God, all things are possible.”
“This Is Not A Wig – It’s My Hair!” Declares Young Man Healed Of Alopecia
When 19-year-old Moses came for prayer in The SCOAN on March 16, 2025, he had no hair on his head. His placard read: “Hair Loss”.
Here is his testimony:
It all started with a small spot on my head. Within a short time, more spots began to appear, and I started losing my hair.
I went to the hospital, where I was diagnosed with alopecia and given several medications. However, after using the drugs for months, I didn’t see any improvement.
At that point, I decided to take my case to God. An evangelist prayed for me, and afterwards, my hair began to grow back
Moses smiled, insisting he wasn’t wearing a wig. His mother Florence said, ”I am very happy today.”
For advice, They told the people: ‘There is nothing God cannot do.”
Spared Of Dental Surgery As Anointing Brings Relief!
By August 24, 2025, 61-year-old Amaka had been booked for an operation.
Here is her testimony:
I had been suffering from gum swelling and severe toothache, and even used a mouthwash that only made the situation worse.
I was scheduled to undergo surgery in just two days’ time. However, instead of going for the operation, I decided to seek God’s presence.
During that period, I couldn’t eat solid food or meat. My mouth was always smelly, and I couldn’t even tolerate noise.
But when I was touched by God’s Spirit, I felt the pain disappear instantly.
Today, my health has been fully restored—glory be to God!
For advice, She told the people: “Have faith in God.”
The SCOAN Sunday Service: The Dangers of Anger
LISTEN TO THE SERMON TITLED: Don’t Allow The Devil
For his sermon entitled “Don’t Allow The Devil”, Evangelist Shina read from Matthew 4:1-10, among other bits of Scripture.
From the passage he drew three major lessons as he spoke on the importance of resisting the devil and his temptations, which are merely opportunities to choose temporary pleasure over permanent gain.
The world, he said, is a place of constant spiritual danger for the believer, hence the need to stay watchful and alert.
Evangelist Shina noted that although Christians are in the world, they are not of the world. He explained that a believer can be in danger because of their own actions or inaction.
“When you allow pride, lust or bitterness to take root in your life, you have placed yourself at risk spiritually,” he said. He also stated that spiritual danger results from acting out of the dictates of God’s Word.
In short, he asserted, “Essentially, the danger zone is any situation or mindset that stops a Christian from walking closely with God.”
A Sermon On Resisting Temptation
Citing Genesis 3:1-10, the passage where satan tricks Eve and Adam into disobeying God, the preacher reminded the church that the devil always disguises himself as a friend rather than the eternal foe that he represents. Given that reality, he counselled the people not to allow the devil to get them out of faith.
Regarding the lessons from the proof text, he noted that any situation, whether good or bad, can be used to tempt the believer.
Next, he observed, is that, like Jesus Christ, the Christian must know how to resist satan and reject his advice. Finally, he urged the people to learn to use God’s Word as their spiritual weapon.
Other passages for the sermon came from James 4:4-7, Ephesians 6:12-16, 1 John 2:15-16, 1 Peter 5:8-9, Matthew 6:13 and Proverbs 22:3.
The SCOAN Sunday Service: Prayerline Session (March 22, 2026)
The SCOAN Evangelists
“We are serving a living God – the Most High God – and His name is Jesus Christ,” Evangelist Ope said as he joined the church for the Prayer Line ministration. Urging the people to exercise faith, he assured them there was no burden too heavy for the Saviour.
Right afterwards, The SCOAN Evangelists began the ministration of prayers of healing, deliverance and breakthrough. Among the cases were kidney disease, breast/pelvic cancer, swollen scrotum, leg ulcers, swelling in different parts of the body, difficulty in walking, difficulty in breathing, and stroke, among others.
In addition to expectant mothers seeking cover for themselves and the fruits of their wombs, women with fibroids and other health challenges also received from the Throne Of Grace.
Prayers were equally offered for those having issues such as asthma, kidney disease, epilepsy, glaucoma, hepatitis, heart issues and chest pain, etc.
Beyond the physical cases, there were also numerous instances of deliverance from foul spirits. As the fire of the Holy Ghost burned them, demons exclaimed in severe discomfort before fleeing from the bodies they had been occupying.
Indeed, there was no chance for any stubborn spirits to stay behind as they got ejected during the One-On-One Session.
SCOAN Sunday Service Mass Prayer (March 22, 2026)
“It is done already; we are just here to receive,” Evangelist Chisom said at the start of the Mass Prayer session.
The SCOAN Evangelists
Evangelist Chisom prayed: “By the authority in the name of Jesus, let there be calmness in every storm in your life! Every demon, unclean spirit, ancestral spirit, family idol – in the name of Jesus: Out!”
“All unclean spirits operating in your life, in your family – Out, by the fire of the Holy Ghost!” Evangelist James decreed.
Evangelist Joseph prayed: “All spirits of affliction, sickness, disease operating in your life – Out, in the mighty name of Jesus!
That garment of affliction placed upon you by demons, unclean spirits, messengers of satan – Catch fire! You affliction in my system, anywhere you are, my body is not your temple. I order you: Out, by the fire of the Holy Ghost!”
Next, Evangelist Ope asked the people to declare: “You spirit of limitation operating in my life – Out, by the fire of the Holy Ghost!”
Prophet TB Joshua
Speaking with authority in a Mass Prayer video, Prophet TB Joshua decreed: “Every spirit within your heart – I command it to leave, in the name of Jesus! Every familiar spirit within and without – I command it to leave you, in the name of Jesus!
I command all those unyielding challenges to leave you, in the name of Jesus! Sickness, disease – be captured! In your blood, kidneys, liver, bones – be captured, in the name of Jesus!”
SCOAN Sunday Service: The Grace
As the service drew to a close, Evangelist James declared, “It is done!” He then urged the people to assert, “The way out for me has come!”
