PRAYER MEETING || 3RD JANUARY 2025

The video records a live, multi‑speaker Christian prayer and worship gathering led by several participants and Pastor Mimi. The central theme is a call to cling to the "altar of mercy," illustrated through biblical examples such as Adonijah’s grasp of the altar horns (1 Kings 1:50), Joseph’s experience of mercy (Genesis 39), and Bartimaeus’ plea for mercy (Mark 10:46). Participants repeatedly exhort the congregation to lift their voices, pray loudly and fast in the Spirit, and cry for mercy in all areas of life, asserting that mercy brings generational blessings, protection, and answers to needs. The session includes teaching on the nature of mercy, personal testimonies, and practical announcements about tithes, offerings, upcoming services, and how to participate. The atmosphere is highly energetic, repetitive, and fervent, with occasional multilingual interjections and a strong emphasis on communal intercession.

Something happens when we appear before the Lord. The Bible says they go from strength to strength, as many of them that appear before God in Zion. Can you go before the Lord this evening?
Listen, you don't have to boot.
You can step into the river already. You don't have to take 10 minutes to boot. You can step in. You ought to live on the edge.
Go ahead, loud and fast in the spirit.
Wherever you are watching us from around the world, and those of us on site, I'd like you to lift up your voice and pray in the spirit loud and fast. Loud and fast. gives us utterance to now pray correct prayers. So when you pray in the spirit, you are charging, you are charging yourself to pray the right prayers tonight. There is a prayer that is called the right prayer. Don't get tired. 3 more minutes, loud in the Holy Ghost. Pray, pray, pray loud and clear. In your name, I don't know, you reign on high.
We will rise in your name.
Lift your voice and pray tonight.
Jesus, Jesus.
See, I want us to come into the consciousness of the fact that we have— the Bible says God has not called the seed of Jacob to seek him in vain. Whenever God summons a meeting like this, God summons his people to wait upon him, it is because there is a specific agenda on his mind. And you cannot pray as though you are not conscious of it. Now, you know, God has instructed us through our Apostle, through our Father in the Lord Apostle, that as we pray in this season, we should cling on to what?
I can't hear you.
We should cling on to what? Cling on to mercy. So this evening, what will characterize our prayer is the prayer of mercy. And I want to, I want to show us a scripture or something powerful that blesses me every time I read it. In the book of 1 Kings chapter 1 verse 50, before we go there, let me give you a background of it, right? Adonijah had tried to take the throne from Solomon after David was still alive, but he tried to, you know, overthrow Solomon and all of that. And the Bible says that it was— it happened so that Solomon was now ordained as the king of Israel, but something happened. Adonijah, for fear of his life, ran into the temple. Look at what the Bible says in verse 50. It says, now Adonijah was afraid of Solomon, so he arose and went and took hold of the horns of the altar. And it was told Solomon, saying, indeed Adonijah is afraid of King Solomon, for look, he has taken hold of the horns of the altar, saying, let, let King Solomon swear to me today that he will not put his servant to death with the sword. Then Solomon said, if he proves himself a worthy man, not one hair of him shall fall to the earth. Now you wonder, why did he go to hold the horns of the altar? What is the symbolism of the horns of the altar? You see, the The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed, right? And the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed. So when he held on to the horn of the altar, it was a symbolism of something. It was a symbolism of holding on to the altar of mercy, that as long as he's holding that altar, no harm can come to him. You don't get it? As long as Adonijah was holding the horn of that altar, there was nothing that could have been done to him. That was the reason why Solomon reconsidered what he was going to do to him. So when we say cling to the altar of mercy, it means that— the Bible puts it this way, said nothing shall by any means hurt you. See, I want you to lift your voice as we pray tonight. Lord, I cling to the horns of the altar.
I cling to the altar of mercy.
Even as we wait upon you in this season, I— of the altar, not my dwelling.
In the name of Jesus.
Lord, the altar of— say it, pray it out, lift and begin to pray.
Jesus.
Christ's mercy. Although the blood of Abel cried judgment, you can now come boldly to his throne and cling on to the altar of mercy. Lift your voice and make that prayer. Lord, I cling to the altar of mercy. I cling to the altar of mercy. I cling to the altar of mercy, that even when I have made a mistake that requires a consequence, let mercy speak. Let mercy speak. Let mercy speak. Let mercy speak in the place of judgment. Let mercy speak in the name of Jesus. Oh, we cling to the altar of mercy. E rabalande so parandele. Adonijah knew that as long as he's holding on to the horn of the altar, no harm can come to him. As long as he's holding on to the arm— to the horns of the altar, there is no harm that can come to him. Can you lay hold on the horns of the altar tonight? Lord, I cling to the altar of mercy. I cling to the altar of mercy in the name of Jesus. I cling to the altar of mercy. Lift your voice and pray. Lift your voice and pray loud and faster. Pray in the spirit and say, Lord, I cling to the altar of mercy. Oh Lord, I cling to the altar of mercy. Listen, the devil has sought a lot of people even in this year, but there is such a thing, there is an infrastructure in God that can keep a man from stumbling. It is not of him that willeth, not of him that runneth, but of God that shows mercy. It is the infrastructure of your safety. You must cling to it. It is called the altar of mercy. It is called the altar of mercy. It is not of him that willeth. No, no, no. It is not of him that even runneth. No, no, no. But God shows mercy upon a man. Oh Jesus, pray, pray, pray. By reason of this season, as we wait upon the Lord, let mercy speak, oh God. Let mercy speak, oh God. Let mercy speak, oh God. Let mercy speak, oh God. What Adonijah had done was treason. He was deserving of death, but by virtue of the horns of the altar, he was pardoned and another chance was given to him. Can you cry out, Lord, I cling to the altar of mercy? I cling to the altar of mercy. I cling to the altar of mercy. Jesus, don't leave me to myself. I cling to the altar of mercy. Rebel. In Jesus' mighty name, we are still praying.
Apostle said something. He said there is no formula for mercy. Listen, there is no formula for mercy. There is— I cannot tell you do this and do that, the 10 principles of mercy. There's nothing as such.
But the only clue that the Bible gave us to obtain mercy is to cry, is to The Bible says the man called Bartimaeus cried and said, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy, and he obtained it.
Every man that obtained mercy, although there is no formula, when they cry, God hears.
I'm saying that although there is no formula, God cannot deny a man that cries out for his mercy. So when I say let us pray, it's not the time to just— no, no, you intentionally cry out for the horns of the altar and say, Lord, I hold on to it as a typology of the Christ. I hold on to the horns of the altar.
Let mercy speak.
It is a two-factor authentication. He said nothing shall by enemies hurt you. Two factors. There is nothing by enemies that can hurt you when you cling onto the horns of the altar. Can someone cry out tonight and say, Jesus, thou Son of David, would you have mercy? Jesus, thou Son of David, would you have mercy? Jesus, thou Son Son of David, would you have mercy? I'm telling you, mercy can bring everything. You have a need for a car, you have a need for a spouse, you have a need for an open door— mercy can bring it. So when you pray, Lord, have mercy, it is an all-encompassing prayer. Oh Lord, in your infinite mercy— eronto skepela kabana, eshende pronde sigala, rekombele tela, lekombele tela. Good thing the mercy of God does not run out. Oh, the Bible calls him— calls it the eternal mercy of God, the everlasting mercy of God. Oh, randes kompret eka. The Bible said it is new every morning. It is routed in each day for your sake. It is routed in each day for your sake.
Cry out.
That is the only antidote— that is the only formula rather that is given to us to obtain mercy. When you cry, he does not deny. When you you cry, he will not shut his ears. Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy upon me. Some people, as you are praying right now, you are addressing issues in March, you are addressing issues in April, you are addressing issues in August already. By the mercy of God, that the hand of God goes ahead already, that the hand of God goes already. Would you pray? Would you pray? Would you pray and hold on to the horns of the altar? And hold on to the horns of the altar. Say, I will not let it go, oh God. Adonijah said, I will not leave this place until Solomon promises not to kill me. I will not leave this horn until Solomon promises not to kill me. Can someone as desperate as Adonijah pray and say Say, Lord, I will not leave this place until I obtain mercy. I will not leave this place until I obtain mercy. From wherever you are watching, lift your voice loud and pray. Lift your voice and pray loud and clear.
I expect us to pray more. I expect us to pray more tonight. You can still cry better. You can still cry harder. Cry for mercy tonight. Cry for mercy tonight. Cry for mercy! Cry for help! Cry for help!
Cry for mercy!
Don't be proud. Hey, don't be proud. Don't be proud. Ask God for mercy. Ask God for mercy. Ask God for mercy. You can't do it on your own. Don't be proud, don't be proud. Ask God for mercy, ask God for mercy. Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. Cry unto the Father tonight. Cry for mercy tonight. Cry for mercy tonight. Jesus, have mercy. Jesus, have mercy. Jesus, have mercy on me. Jesus, have mercy on me. Oh, ask for mercy tonight. Ask for mercy tonight. Ask for mercy tonight. Ask for ask for mercy tonight. Jesus Christ saw the future of human race and he paid it all. He had mercy upon us. Come on, ask for mercy. Can you begin to lay demand? Can you begin to call those things you need mercy upon? Can you mention them one by one? Can you place them at the feet of Jesus tonight and ask for mercy? For that door to be opened, you need mercy. For that person to respond to you, God has to go ahead of you. Mercy has to speak ahead of you. Come on, cry for mercy! Come on, cry for mercy! For in Jesus' mighty name, we are still praying.
Oh, let us open our Bible to just to Genesis. Genesis 39, verse 19. Genesis 39, verse 19. And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife which she spake unto him, saying, after this manner did thy servant to me, did thy servant to me, that his wrath was kindled. Next verse. And Joseph's master took him and put him into prison, a place where the king's prisoners were bound. And he was there in the prison. And the Lord was with Joseph, and he showed him mercy and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. Praise God. I want to believe that we all know the story of Joseph. From, from verse 1 of this Genesis 39, we could see how that Joseph was going from one place to another Joseph. First he was sold to Potiphar, and I think in verse 3 there it says that God was with him. God was with him. That is God's act of mercy. After Potiphar's wife had lied on Joseph, it says again that what— but the Lord was with Joseph and he showed him mercy. Despite his tribulations, despite everything he had to go through, God showed him mercy. God showed him mercy. God showed him mercy. We're going to be crying tonight again that God show me mercy, God show me mercy. I think I saw a post somewhere that I think it was Daddy Adeboye that said that sometimes mercy is you be lifted, sometimes mercy is you remain here. All of them, they are mercy. Sometimes it is mercy keeping you from stumbling block. Even when you feel that your peers have gone ahead of you and you are in one position, you are wondering what's going on, what's going on. It is still God's act of mercy.
Can we open our mouth and cry tonight that in the name of Jesus I receive mercy? In the name of Jesus I receive mercy. In all my endeavors I receive mercy. In everything I do, oh God, I receive mercy. The mercies of God will not depart from me. The mercies of God will not depart from me. Even when I understand it, I receive mercy. Even Even when I don't understand, I receive mercy. Come on, cry for mercy tonight. Cry for mercy tonight. Jesus, have mercy on me. Jesus, have mercy on me. Jesus, have mercy on me. Let your mercy position me rightly. Let your mercy let me do according to what I'm supposed to do rightly. Let your mercy help me act rightly in the In the name of Jesus, let your mercy position me rightly. Let your mercy help me. Let your mercy speak for me. Let your mercy go ahead of me. Oh Jesus have mercy! Oh Jesus have mercy! Oh Jesus have mercy on me! Let your mercy order my steps. Let your mercy lead me rightly. Oh Jesus have mercy on me! Jesus have mercy on me! Jesus have mercy on me! Let your mercy help me say the right things to Right God today. Lord, I thank you for this opportunity things.

way. Jesus, have mercy on me. Oh God, have mercy on me. Oh God, have mercy on me. For in Jesus' mighty In Jesus' mighty name, we are still praying.
We are still going to be praying for mercy tonight. Let us look at Mark chapter 10 from verse 46. Mark 10 from verse 46, quickly please. This is the story of blind Bartimaeus. And they came to Jericho. As he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, son of Timaeus, sat by by the wayside, highwayside, begging. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me. Before we go further, back to that verse 46, it said he sat down by the wayside. You know, by the virtue of sitting down, you're already disadvantaged when you have multitude of people that are taller than you.
How far can your voice go? How far can you be heard?
By sitting down alone, blind Bartimaeus was already disadvantaged. I'm sure that his vocal cords said there is a limit to how far it can go, but God in his mercy amplified his voice. We're gonna be praying tonight that God, in every sphere, in every place that I cannot speak, let your mercy amplify my voice.
Let your let mercy speak on my behalf. Let your mercy carry my voice to the throne of grace. Can you cry for mercy this night? Tell God that let his mercy amplify your voice. Jesus, let your mercy amplify my voice. Let your mercy speak on my behalf. Jesus, Son of David, have mercy upon me. Let your mercy amplify my voice, oh God. Let your mercy speak on my behalf. Let your mercy clear all for me. Let it clear path for me in the name of Jesus. Let your mercy speak for me, oh God. Let your mercy speak for me, oh God. Oh Jesus, we plead for mercy tonight. When I don't have a voice again, let's Mercy speak on my behalf! Let Mercy speak on my behalf! Let Mercy speak on my behalf! Go ahead of me! Let's make it go ahead of me! That message—go ahead of me! Let mercy go ahead of me!
Come on, pray, pray, pray, praise God for his I mercies today!
Pray to Jesus Christ that pray he will be your shield over you this week!
I'm praying by faith tonight, because we have received all things through him who loved us at Calvary Cross. We receive everything from our Father Almighty now according to what has been written down there before time began.
Amen? Hallelujah!
Praise Him forevermore! Thank You Lord Jesus Christ!
Glory to Your name O King of Kings! Oh ask hallelujah!
All right guys, let's take 2 minutes together just worshiping His holy Spirit so He can fill up every God heart here tonight.

If you don't help me, where else can I go and ask for mercy? Where else can I go? Nowhere. If you don't heal me, who else can heal me? Who else can heal me? Hey, nowhere. If you don't help me, where else can I go? Where else can I go?

Can you just lift your voice and pray in the Holy Ghost? We are still praying, we're still praying. Don't stop.

Amen.
Hallelujah! Can we come together? You see, we are We have come tonight to pray, and I want us to pray.
I want us to pray.
How many of you are ready to pray more?
Can I see your hands up?
I want to just give us time, you see, that you pray and just pray and lay hold until you know that you know that you know that you have moved further in the areas of mercy. You know, you you can pray for a thing and know when you have received it. Are we together?
Hey, are we together?
Are we together? You can pray for a thing and know when you have touched that thing. I don't just want us to pray, but I want us to pray to the point where something happens, something shifts. Now don't get tired of praying for mercy. And you see, it is only prayer that you pray and try to find nice vocabulary for mercy is mercy. Are we together? Mercy is what? It's mercy. Mercy is mercy. But you see, the difference is when you now find the results of mercy. Where you can, you can know the work and the power of mercy when you find someone that carries it and someone that does not carried. Someone that bears the mark of mercy and one that does not have that mark on him, that's when the difference is clear. Now mercy is a thing that God himself is the one that decides how and when to give it. And the easiest thing, or the only thing we can do, at least try to get it, is to pray and cry for Romans 9:15, he says, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy on. Can you see how scary that is? Hey, are we together? You see, if only Saul was in a prayer meeting like this, he probably would have been king.
You didn't get that?
Saul will be somewhere now looking at us and saying, ah, these guys, I wish I had this opportunity to understand You understand first that there is something called mercy. Hey, are we together? Because what separated David and Saul was that one person found mercy and one person did not. Hey, may you not be in competition with someone that has found mercy and you have not. Hey, so that's why you must pray. That they will say they will sack two people in your office. And they'll just leave one person, and you are standing side by side with someone that spent his January praying for mercy.
Just give up if you did not pray.
And so as we are praying, don't just be looking. It is a personal thing. Are we together? Hey, are we together? And I believe that this is God's system for us to be praying the whole of January. There is something up February, March, until the end of the year that God has instructed that as a house we cry for what? Mercy. You may not know exactly what you are praying for, but you see, mercy has a way of answering everything that it needs to answer.
Mercy is that prayer that captures every other prayer point. It is the key that monitors every other key in the the kingdom.
So when you find mercy, you have found every other thing. You may not know why so-so and so thing is working, but because you have found mercy. Can you pray for mercy tonight? Now see, don't, don't do religious things. You can lose your voice while praying this prayer. Lord, have mercy on me. Can we lift our voice? Lift your voice now. It is you, it is you and someone. Lift your voice, you alone. Pray for mercy.
Mandeka, cry for mercy. Mandeka, cry for mercy. It's a one-on-one thing, a personal journey, a personal race. Hey, pray for yourself, oh, don't be quiet, don't be quiet. Ah, I found mercy, I I find it, I find it, I find it, I find it. I am covered under the umbrella of mercy. La pata ka parada pasa, yete ke porada pas, lende ke te parada pas, lede ke te parada pas, korara pa, lede ke posa, lebron de ke pa. Hey, the day I will need mercy, may mercy speak for me. May I not be short of mercy. Jesus, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. Lift your voice, lift your voice. Don't stay Quiet. Pray. I cling to mercy. I cling to mercy. I cling to it. I cling to it. That when my matter is being discussed, Mercy will speak. Pray, pray, pray, pray. Oh yes, yes. Yes, yes, yes! Pray, pray, pray! Oh yes! I find mercy in this one life. I find mercy. I find the sure mercies of David. Oh Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. Pray, pray, pray. For I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will show grace to whom I will show grace to. I will have compassion on whosoever I will have compassion on. That your mercy will be upon me. Pray, pray, pray, pray for mercy. Pray for mercy, the mercy that speaks against judgment. Oh Jesus, hey, cry, cry for mercy. Cry for mercy. Oh Jesus, for in Jesus' mighty name we ask to pray. I wanted to pick someone, pick someone.
We're going to pray together. Oh yes, none of us will be short of mercy. Now the Bible Bible says that his mercies are new every morning. His mercies are new every morning. It means there is no end to how much you can receive of his mercy, because it is like storing it in the— in a bank. Hey, you know, I was saying something this morning while we were praying, that the Bible says there are arrows that flies by day. Are you aware? Psalm 91. And they fly daily. Daily. Now think about it, as I'm speaking now, millions of people are dying all over the world per second. Some people just stepped in places and something just happened. They never planned it and it just happened. And you can see it like a random pick, but it is mercy that shields us. Hey, are you seeing that now? It is mercy that shields you from disaster and the danger. It is not the enemy's wish that you are alive. It is not his desire that all things go well for you, that you are planning, you are even praying, you are, you are combating his kingdom and you are defeating him daily and he will keep you. If he had the opportunity to kill just one person, it will be one of us. But mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy. Hey, even as believers, you must pray for mercy because the day you will stand side side by side with another believer that has prayed this prayer more. It is who has prayed that prayer of mercy that it will speak for. Imagine having David in your camp. Hey, you're not getting what I'm saying. You're not getting what I'm saying. I'm saying it is a personal thing that you cry for mercy. You load your bank with mercy, that then you might actually be the one to be judged But there is a mercy that says no.
Hey, you're not getting what I'm saying.
There is a mercy that speaks against judgment. It means that legally you are supposed to be judged, but mercy says no. Not this one, not this one. I want you to pray. Hold your neighbor. We are going to pray now. Pray fervently. And if the neighbor is not praying well, you can leave the person, but you will cry.
Still the same prayer point. Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy. Come on, pray, pray. Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. Have mercy on me.
Oh yes.
Pray, pray.
Mercy, mercy.
The sure mercies of David. Yes, yes, yes, yes. I am a child of mercy. I find mercy and I find it early. The sure mercies of David. I cling to the altar of mercy. I will not let go. For by power and by my might I cannot prevail, but by mercy. I come boldly to the throne of grace that I may obtain mercy and grace. I cry for mercy. I cry for mercy. Pray, pray, pray, pray, pray. The mercy that turns night to day, that turns ashes to beauty. Oh, you may not have the right words, but you can never go wrong with mercy. The cry for mercy. Oh, mercy, mercy is in abundance. Pray and cry. I cry. I hold on to the arms of the altar of mercy. I cling on it. Oh Oh Lord, have mercy on me, have mercy on me, have mercy on me, have mercy on me. Where darkness at the sight of light evaporated at a glimpse of light.
You're the light that makes my light shine bright. As I look your face, I become the light.
Pray, pray, pray, pray, pray, pray. Hey Lord, we cry for mercy. The mercy that speaks over judgment. Mandeke pronda ka ba. Mandeke pronda ka ba.
Mandeke ba. Mandeke ba.
I am a son of mercy. I'm a son of mercy. I find mercy, and at that, right early. I find it early. I find it early. I will not do a day without mercy. Oh, pray, pray, pray. Hallelujah!
Let me show you one last scripture and we still pray. 2 Samuel chapter 7, 2 Samuel 7, and from verse 14. Oh yes. 1 Samuel 7:14-15. Oh, we'll pray for mercy. He's saying about David, God was speaking to him, he said, I will be his father and he shall be my son. Ah, if he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the stripes of the children of men. I will deal with him as a father to his son, but mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it away from Saul, whom I put away before me. So God took that covering of mercy from Saul, but he said of David, how— you see, the Bible says the horse is prepared for battle, but victory is of the Lord. You may know how to do every other thing, but there is still a place for time and chance. Hey, that happens to everything. There is a place where you cannot decide the outcome, though you have done every other thing, but the outcome, it is of the Lord to now decide. You can train the horse for battle, but who will win is still for God to decide. I want us to pray for mercy again and say, Father, in everything I will do, every venture I I will embark on, I find your mercy, I find your mercy, I find your mercy. Mandeka ba. Come on, pray, lift your voice. I will not be destitute of this thing called mercy. Hey, I will not lack this very thing called mercy.
I will not lack it. There are people that have every other thing except this thing. When you talk with them, they are doing You've done everything correctly, but yet there is nothing to show for it.
Mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy.

Let your mercy never leave me.
We cry for mercy! We cry for mercy! Oh, pray, pray! There is a man Mercy that you can get that will even serve two generations.
Oh yes.
For in Jesus' mighty name we are praying. Lastly, we're going to pray.
Don't get tired of praying for mercy. You see, David so secured mercy that he was able to secure it for his generation, that no matter what any of his child did on the throne, there was still a mercy that came from the account of their father to the children. And God said, none of your child will leave that throne until Jesus will come. It will be Jesus, the Son of David, because As a man lay hold of mercy, he pressed into it so much that he could reserve for his children. So it is not a waste. That's why they are new every morning, because you need a love. Hey, I want you to still cry for mercy, and you will pray that this mercy will cover your generations, your family, your friends.
It will speak for them. They will find mercy in the sight of God. In the midst of multitudes, they will find mercy. Oh yes, pray, pray, pray, pray. One more minute, pray for mercy. The sure mercies of David. My generation is covered, my children are covered, my family is covered, my wife is covered, my friends are covered by your mercy. None will lack mercy, none will lack mercy. Oh yes, the mercy system of God will overshadow them. Pray, pray, pray for yourself. Oh Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy.
Amen. In Jesus' mighty name, we are still praying. Now you see, for some of us, even your coming here is mercy. Are you aware? You're coming to pray for mercy is God's system of mercy. And you see, tonight I'm gonna— I have the singular honor of bringing Pastor Mimi up, you see, to lead us in prayers and also release blessings to push us further into that covering of mercy. Hallelujah! And are you ready to receive tonight? With Jesus' joy, can we receive God's servant Pastor Mimi as she comes up to bless us tonight.
Hallelujah!
We're still praying tonight. Can you pray in the spirit? Come on, continue to pray in the spirit. The scripture says, I will have mercy on whom I choose to have mercy upon.
We are the chosen ones. We receive mercy tonight. We do not come like those that know what they want, but we come because we do not know what we want. Oh, we come knowing fully well that you are the one that knows what we need. Lord, we ask for mercy, because when we ask for mercy, mercies cover us all. Lord, have mercy upon me. Lord, have mercy upon Upon me! Lord have mercy upon— —me! Lord of Mercy! Lord of Mercy! Lord of Mercy! Lord of Mercy! I receive mercy. Oh yeah, when your mercy speaks, there is no confusion. Where your Your mercy speaks, there is no calamity. Where your mercy speaks, you are there. Where your mercy speaks, there is favor. Where your mercy speaks, I know what to do. Where your mercy speaks, I know what to say. Where your mercy speaks, I am divinely and strategically positioned. Where your mercy speaks, I am connected to the right people. Where your mercy is speaking, I am placed in the right place at the right time, doing the right thing with the right people. Lord, I receive mercy. Come on, pray, pray, pray, pray, pray. I receive mercy tonight. I receive mercy tonight. I receive mercy tonight! I received message tonight! I receive mercies— I receive mercy! I receive mercy! I receive messages! Yeah. Oh yeah. Abarabara! In Jesus' name, let's keep praying.
You know, every time I read that part of the scripture, you know, that blind man that called out to Jesus and said, Jesus, have mercy upon me. You know, I like to tell myself all the time that for him to know what to ask for, it means that there was a level of mercy that was already working, because it takes a level of revelation revelation for you to even know what to ask for. And this man out of the crowd, out of—
I'm sure there were other blind people in the, in the crowd that day, but something happened to this man. He knew what to say. Why? Because there was revelation.
And I believe strongly that there are levels to this thing. Oh yes, you can be operating in a level and another person is operating at a higher level. There will always be a difference.
So this man, he knew what to ask for.
Why? Because there was something already operating, and that can only come from the level of revelation that you have. During Light Camp, I told you that this man, he must have done his research.
He knew, he knew, he was not coming like a stranger.
He was not coming like one that do not know the person he's asking for.
You know, you can be so connected with people and you don't know who they are.
I remember this, this example might be very funny, but let me just share it. All right, so at some point in my life, I needed to, you know, do some things, and I was in a room, you know, with a number of people. And of course, you know, I just, I wanted to just disguise and do what I wanted to do and just leave. But somebody recognized me. And then, you know, she didn't recognize me as Pastor Mimi. She recognized me as— she just said, there's something different about you.
In fact, she's a Muslim.
So there's something different about you. I don't know, but are you a woman of God? And then I was like, yes. Then we prayed and everything. Then the following day, another lady came to me, and then at this point she actually recognized me. And she was like, I've been looking at you from afar. 'God bless you,' and all. And what baffled me was that all she requested for was a selfie, which I didn't actually give because I didn't want to. But why am I saying this? I'm saying this that you can be so connected with people that matter to you, and because your eyes have not been opened to see, you don't know what to get. You don't know what to request for.
You don't know what—
you don't even know what you need.
You can be where there is a lot of food and you are hungry, but because you can't see food, you know that— you don't know that there is food.
You can be in the midst of gold, so many resources, but because you, you don't have a revelation, you don't even know what is around you. You don't know what you have.
And if you don't know, you cannot ask for what you truly need. Because I like to say that there's a difference between your wants and your needs. I want to believe that you're not joining on this journey of, you know, fasting and prayer just bringing, you know, your wants to Jesus. Just say, I want this.
No, there is what you need. And what you need is what matters for your life.
Life and destiny.
When you receive mercy, you know what to ask for.
The scripture said the Spirit of the Lord makes intercession for us.
It means that by your own self you cannot get it, but there's a spirit on your inside that helps you to pray. There's a spirit on your inside that gives you the right There's a spirit on your inside that reveals to you because the Holy Spirit is the revealer of secrets. I don't know what, whatever aspect of your life right now, maybe for you, you are even looking at the wrong direction, but the mercy of God is shifting your focus in the name of Jesus. Maybe for you, you are looking at the wrong direction for help, but tonight, akaba yaba The mercy of God is shifting your gaze to the right place in the name of Jesus.
Come on, somebody, I need you to pray tonight.
I receive mercy. I receive mercy. I receive mercy. I receive mercy. I receive mercy. Ah, when the mercy of God is speaking, I can never lack what I need. When the mercy of God is speaking, I can never lack anything named good. When the mercy of God is speaking, everything I need in times and their seasons comes to me. Oh, for some of you under the sound of my voice, the expression of mercy that you will see is that you begin to see the right people at the right time. You'll be connected to the right people in the right association doing the right thing. Ah, ko baka baya. Somebody pray tonight. I receive mercy over my marriage. I receive mercy over my finance. I receive mercy over my children. I receive Mercy over my husband. I receive mercy over my wife. I receive mercy. Come on, pray, pray, pray, pray, pray. The mercy of God is revealing secrets to you, revealing secrets to you, revealing secrets to you. Shakara! Ayaka bababa! Shakara bara! Yakoba kababa! In Jesus' name, I still pray.
Now, some of you might be wondering why I shared what I shared earlier. I shared what I shared because I knew what God told me before going to that place, and I knew that there was somebody that I was going to meet that needed something from me. But it happened the way it happened. And the way this thing works, it's by the leading of the Spirit. You don't want to move outside what God is saying. Now, it would have happened differently if this person, you know, I'm not trying to— I hope you get what I'm trying to say. I'm just, I'm just letting you see how these things is very practical in your day-to-day life. How that you can walk past somebody and the person you're walking by is that, that exact person you need for your next level.
And the only thing you need to do is just greet, good afternoon, ma, and you're strategically for— just by that act of saying good afternoon. Or maybe for you it is that client and you just pick, hello, and they just like your voice.
And you're wondering, what am I doing right now? Oh, it is the mercy of God. This is the mercy of God. It is the mercy of God. It is the mercy of God that you, you look to the right and to the left and you're like, ah, Kai, there is just something, there's something going on that I don't understand.
You don't have to understand it. When the mercy of God is speaking, you don't have to understand it. You just have to flow in it. Because when the mercy is speaking, oh, Kaya Baba, it comes beyond your own understanding. Do you know there are some miracles that you cannot share as testimonies because they will not believe? There are some testimonies that you will have that you can't share because they're trying to share, they feel like You are lying.
Like, does not make sense.
That's the level mercy brings us to. That when you receive mercy, you can see, you know, you, you, you just know what to do. You are very clear. You are not confused. You know the revelation of the people that matter in your life. You have it. And you know how to tap into it. Because it is one thing to have something things.
Another is for you to understand it. And another thing, for you to be able to tap into it. Somebody ask for mercy tonight.
Ask for mercy tonight. Ask for mercy tonight.
I receive mercy. I receive mercy. I receive mercy.
I receive mercy. I receive mercy. I receive mercy. For somebody under the sound of my voice, the way mercy will be expressed in your life in this season is that you will begin to see your prophets. You will begin to see them. The scripture says he has placed a solitary in family. They will become revealed to you so that you can begin to receive that which belongs to you from the mouth of your prophets. I receive mercy. I receive mercy. I receive mercy in the name of Jesus. I am never stranded. I am never stranded of mercy. Hey, the The mercy of God is loud in my life, very loud and expressive. When I turn to the right, I receive mercy. When I turn to the left, I receive mercy. When I turn to the back, I receive mercy. When I move forward, I receive mercy. Everywhere I turn, the mercy of God speaks in the name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus. In Jesus' mighty name, we are still praying.
I'm gonna be making declarations in the next few minutes, but before then, I want to quickly balance something. I didn't I didn't share that story to say that selfie is bad. Please, I didn't share that story to say selfie is bad, but you get what I'm saying. You understand it. Hallelujah! Please raise your hands to Jesus tonight.
The mercy of God, the mercy of God, the mercy of God. Lord, we come to you as a house, we come to you as a people. You said to us that this year we should cling to the altar of mercy. Oh Lord God, we cling to the altar of mercy. We cling to the altar of mercy. We cling to the altar of mercy in every areas of our life. In the name of Jesus. I declare over you that in the name of Jesus, mercy will speak over judgment in your life. I declare over you in the name of Jesus, ah, Yakoba bababa, any area of your life where the enemy is waiting for you to make mistakes, the mercy of God will speak. The mercy of God reveals to you. The mercy of God brings solutions to you. The mercy of God strategically positions you. The mercy of God divinely position you! The mercy of God deliver unto you that which God wants to give to you in the name of Jesus! The mercy of God makes you fruitful! The mercy of God multiplies your— —the mercy of God makes you creative in the name of Jesus! For some of you under the sound of my voice, how the mercy of God is going to be expressed in your life in this season is that you're going to receive creative ideas, great intellectual capacity. Aye, the Lord said to me, kingdom giants, kingdom giants, kingdom giants, kingdom giants, kingdom giants, in the name of Jesus.
For some people under the sound of my voice, God is going to express himself in your life that when people look at you, they will ask you, do you truly belong to this biological family where you say you belong to? Because you'll be so different. Oh, shatta yabada! That they will wonder if you are truly from your village, because when they look into your life, they cannot see anything similar, anything linking you to where you are coming from.
Oh, shaka bara ba ba ba ba! For somebody under the sound of my voice, I hear this woman crying over our children.
I hear this woman crying over our children. She's crying, the children are misbehaving.
How do I handle this?
Where do I turn to? Oh, thank you, Lord.
I hear this woman say, oh, I wish their father was here.
Maybe if their father was here, maybe they wouldn't have turned out the way they did.
Oh, shaka And I hear the Lord say over this situation, I bring my mercy to you. Do not be afraid of anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication make your request known unto me. The mercy of God is speaking over your business. The mercy of God is speaking over your finance. The mercy of God is speaking over over your health. The message of God is speaking over your family. The message of God is speaking over your life. The message of God is speaking over your partner. The message of God is speaking over your children. For that person desiring kingdom marriage, the message of God speaks for you in the name of Jesus. The message of God brings the disappointment that needs to come in the name of Jesus. The mercy of God shuts the doors that need to be shut in the name of Jesus. The mercy of God scatters the relationships that needs to be scattered in the name of Jesus. The mercy of God disconnects you from the people you need to be disconnected from in the name of Jesus.
I heard the Lord say to me, and this is for somebody, as you're asking for mercy, I hope you know what you're asking for, because some doors will be shut, but it is my mercy speaking. You will be disappointed, but it is my mercy speaking. Oh, you will lose some things, but it is my mercy speaking.
Hey, things will not go as you have planned it. But it is my mercy speaking. Eka bababosha. It will look like I am quiet, but I am speaking my mercy over you. E la kobabababosha. To these people, I declare over you, the mercy of God speaks in the name of Jesus. And I declare you strengthened and empowered for the journey ahead in the In the name of Jesus, you are helped. You are divinely helped. Oh, you will lift up your eyes unto the hills from whence cometh your help. Your help comes from the Lord who makes the heavens and the earth. I declare in the name of Jesus, you are divinely helped. Thank you, righteous Father.

Where this is coming from, it's cease to flow, in the name of Jesus. For in Jesus' mighty name we have prayed. Hallelujah.

All right, one to go. We are Light Nation, an atmosphere of God's influence. We love effortlessly, we sacrifice selflessly, and pray earnestly. We are a people of great faith, strong vision, and excellent spirit. We are the center of God's praise upon the earth. We have a lifestyle that is consistent with the authority of scriptures. We believe when the Lord said to us that we are a city in every city. This is the house of pruning, forging, and making of giants.
The shout of a king is— and what do we do? Come on, give the Lord a shout of praise! God bless you. Good night.

Wisdom born from pain recruits people into bitterness, offence and wrong decisions.

Can we serve God and fail? If you’re not doing the right things,you can love God and still struggle.

The people who stand before king are not merely gifted. They are skilled and diligent in their work.

Get ready for another session of Public School with Femi Lazarus this Sunday.
