Amen. Good morning, good morning. God bless you so much in the name of Jesus. Always a joy to be, um, in front of your screen every morning. So excited for another Fantastic morning again. Glory to God. Hallelujah. Wherever we're watching from, can we lift our hands and just thank Jesus? And let's give him praise, let's give him honor, let's give him adoration. Is the Lord God strong and mighty? There is none to be compared to him. Let's thank him. Let's thank him. He's our ever-present help in times of need, in times of need. And I want us to be very grateful and give Jesus praise. We bless you, Lord. We bless you, Lord. You are holy. And forever you are God. We bless you, love you, holy. And forever you are God. Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. You are God. Let's go ahead and just thank Jesus. Let's go ahead and thank him and bless his holy name. Let's, let's honor him. He deserves all glory. He deserves all adoration. There's none like you, Lord. There's none to be compared to you. There's none like you, Lord. We thank you. In Jesus' name we're praying. There's a, there's a middle-aged man, but what I mean is that I'm just slightly— not, not old, a young man who has been coming in and out of sickness, in and out of sickness, in and out of sickness. Today they know what it is, tomorrow they don't know what it is. That sickness that is draining you consistently I command it dematerializes now, and it checks out of your body. It is never returning. You will not live your life in pain, in the name of Jesus. Oh, we bless you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Let's thank Jesus. Let's thank him. Let's bless him. Let's honor him.

We give you all glory. We give you all praise. And we give you all adoration. Blessed be your holy name. We thank you. We thank you. O blessed be your holy name. In Jesus' mighty name we're praying. All right, so, um, this morning, amongst other things, we're going to pray for Nigeria, and then we're going to pray for the continent of Africa. Amen. Now I, I want to say this as a matter of urgency now. Everyone who truly believes what has called me and given me a word for this season, go back now and start listening to my teachings on reversing the mistakes of Joseph, my teachings on Egypt my teaching on the crowd that want small things. I'm not going to say more than that. For those of you who have been in the roundtable prayer that we have privately, you see the burdens we've been praying about, um, that we don't want a time to come and that we will start seeing bodies. We'll start seeing bodies on the street of people dead. Well, you can see the news for yourself. Unfortunately, there are categories of Christians that seem to believe that the only thing God is interested in— only thing— is your salvation, and that's all. He's not interested in your well-being, and God is not even interested in the societal processes even as they concern his children. And this has formed the basis many times for the silence in the church. It is unfortunately so. But if we check patterns of scriptures, we see that there are many relevant scriptures that are relevant even in the subject of nation building. Um, and sometimes, you know, I don't want to get into much more details than that, but the reason why I'm laying this background is that if you don't believe that God is interested in the peace of your nation, that God is interested in the processes that concerns you, then you will not see reasons to pray. Now somebody says that, show us in the epistles. I'm going to show you in the epistles. The book of 1 Timothy chapter number 2. 1 Timothy chapter number 2. I want to show you from verse 4. Okay, okay, let's start, let's start the reading from verse 1. So I exhort therefore that first of all supplications and prayers supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings, and for all that are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and what? Peaceable life in all godliness. Are you seeing that now? So God wants us to live a quiet and peaceable life. All right, that quiet life doesn't mean that he wants us to live a peaceful life. Praise God. But why do you intercede for kings? Because the forces that tries to influence the head of any organization, any institution, any society, they are more than the average forces that tries to influence the people. Both the forces of sycophants, the forces of demonic people who want things to be stewarded in their direction, and many other forces like that. So we have the responsibility to pray. I want us to get up on our feet, everybody. Are you, are you following what I'm saying here? I want us to pray. And see, believers, number one, listen, I want you to understand We have civil duties, but as Christians, we also have these spiritual duties. Is that simple enough?
Aha.
Whatever is within the ambit of your civil right, that's not what I'm talking about today. I'm talking about what is about— what is within the ambit of your spiritual responsibility, which is that we pray for all men, that we pray for kings, that we pray for those who are in authority. The Bible says that we may lead what a quiet and what, peaceable life in what, in all godliness. So we have the responsibility. First, I want us to pray that the forces carved around— and see, listen to what I'm saying, please hear what I'm saying. Let's say from the time we started having stable democratic rule, 1999, till now. How many years is that? 25 years. Am I correct? From 1999 till now, there has been consistently, um, certain level of decline. You get this one, you feel it's worse, it's bad. Then the next one come, it looks like, ah, your, your burden has been multiplied. Then you get the next one, it looks like, ah, you know. So it keeps looking. And I want us to understand, as much as, yes, Um, the result might be physical. There are also forces beyond what eyes can see. Are you following what I'm saying? Because I'm careful here. You say Nigerians pray about this, you want to contest election, say INEC doesn't count prayer point. The ones that they count, how has it counted? Say you pray. Mama, are you a Christian? Are you following what I'm saying here? I was in London the last time that election held. I think I was on my way to Italy or back from Italy that day. You would not even know. Just walk in, vote, and get out. I want us to pray against the forces arranged both human and whatever force against the rising of this nation and other nations. Pray for your own nations too. We bring them into subjection. We bring them into subjection. We bring them into subjection. We bring them into subjection. Oh yes. Rekese derogo shente. Forces are rained against the destiny of this nation. We bring them into subjection. Oh yes, we bring them into subjection. Rekese derogo shente. In Jesus' mighty name we prayed. One of the forces that can fight the destiny of a nation is the forces that ensures poverty. Whether you believe it or not, poverty is more deadly than you think. With poverty, you have no allegiance. And is it the one that has not eaten for 3 days? That is going to be ready to delay gratification. I don't want to talk too much. When we close the door, we'll talk. But I want us to pray. You can't sit down as a Christian and tell me that God is indifferent about bodies lying on the street. Properties being destroyed. You can't tell me that, that God is indifferent about people who are smart and intelligent but can't go to school that will bring out their potentials because there's no money. And poverty and pain is recycled from generation to generation. You can't tell me God is indifferent about that. I shared the story. I lost my mentor. If he was in another country, he would have survived. It was cancer. It began as a boil, but it was wrongly diagnosed, and by the time they were going to get it It was late. That was a man with potentials. Sometimes I sit back and I look at the body of Christ today and I ask myself, if this man was in this country and alive— we've lost people that their time had not come. Are you following what I'm saying? Let me tell you something. I know many of you listening to me are fantastically rich people. Billionaires and millionaires listen to me, and each time I have the opportunity to talk to you guys, I tell you, as long as you are in this geographical space, Nigeria can happen to you. So pray. Are you following what I'm saying here? I was talking with one of the directors of Nigerian parastatists. I don't want to get into the name so it doesn't get traced out. And where Femi Lazarus, having very fantastic conversation 2 weeks ago or so. And he leads an aspect of general medicine— no, not general, specific aspect. I don't want to mention the aspect— in the country as the largest, all right, clinic in that regard. He was talking to me, said this, this, that. He— I said, oh God, this place that you say you're on, I said Even doctors— I don't want to mention hospital— doctors are dying in the process of delivery. Are you following what I'm saying? Look at it now. I was talking about the hospital my wife was pregnant, wanted to deliver. They were handling as if— I had to shout. That same hospital was in the news 2 weeks ago. Why? A guy took his mother there. The mother was sick. I mean, she walked to the hospital with her legs, but he noticed that each time they gave her drugs, she was getting weak and weaker. And, um, he kept complaining till he found out that they were giving her expired drugs. By the time he found out that they were giving expired drug, all right, it was too late because he died that same evening. And the hospital, during their ward round, tried to cover it up that, um, is it 3 months they said, or 6 months after a drug is expired, it can still be administered? What? You can't sit down and say, you know what, I have my money, I can do whatever I like. No, you can't sit down. It's just a matter of time. And you also can't sit down as a Christian and say God is not moved with all these things. It is so insensitive and stupid to say that. That God— it means God is an opportunist. How can you be interested in my salvation and not interested in my welfare? That's not the scripture. That's why I've shown you the epistles, and we can go on and on and on and show you pattern of scriptures, because doctrines are established in biblical patterns. It's called corroboration of scriptures. If so, someone says that, um, show me what, what's, what, what, so what, what rule, or how is God intending to listen to what I'm saying? There are people who should still matter in God's plan who are dead. Because they found themselves in bad environment, and it took God time to even get replacement for them. There are people who still have a lot of things. Are you following what I'm saying here? When you pray for your country, you are praying for yourself. And let me say this to you, what I'm saying about Nigeria is not any different from Ghana, what is happening in Ghana, what is happening in Benin Republic. What is happening in Côte d'Ivoire, what is happening in Cameroon. Men of this country even have worse cases. What is happening in Guinea Republic, what is happening in Tanzania, in Sudan. What is— see, so don't just, don't just act like things are fine where you are. So you pray. I want us to pray that the forces of righteousness will invade our continent. The force of righteousness that destinies will not be thwarted. Please pray, please pray, please pray, please pray, please pray that destinies of people will not be thwarted. That the forces of righteousness will invade. The forces of righteousness will invade. In Jesus' mighty name we're praying.
Amen.
Now let me show you how dangerous poverty is so that you have to pray that God will even use you. I remember I was, um, I was calling one of our members years back. Two of them, they were in the hospital. So I was talking to the one that was sick. How are you doing? How do you feel? And this and that. Then I heard someone crying at the background, so I said, hey, who is that person? What's the issue? So she said, um, a woman is here, the son is dying, the son of one was dying, and the doctors were not going to treat the boy because they've not deposited money. So I said I said, how much? The boy was already jacking. So I said, how much is it? He said 10,000 naira, that they need to deposit 10,000. I said, what? I said, tell the doctors that I said they should take in that child and put the bills on me. The 10,000, consider I paid. I'm— it's going to be paid. So I, I thought that the parent of the child will be excited. Then they called me back in about 10 minutes and said to me that the parent said that they should give them the money. The guy is dying, say give us the money, I will go and find what to do. You know what is happening? They needed to eat first. When I say that poverty can make your loyalty cheap, if somebody can betray the life of the child, because how much more your country? Are you following what I'm saying here? So it means that poverty is a tool. Let me just leave it there. Pray that God will use you now to elevate poverty. Pray that God will use you too to elevate poverty, to change certain narratives, to help people. Pray, pray, pray, pray that God will use you. That God will use you to change stories of people—
godwiiluseyouwipewaytears!
—God will use you to wipe away tears; God will use you to wipe away tears; God will use you to wipe away tears; God will use you to wipe away tears... God will use you to wipe away tears. Please pray. In Jesus' mighty name we pray. Amen. So if you believe that as a Christian that, um, you just want to live your life and not be impactful, your, your problem is beyond your decision. Now somebody's life is going to be affected because the one that God can raise for them, it's not going to rise for them. There are many things I want to say, but I'm not going to go into that because I don't want my words to be misconstrued. But I want to tell you that one of the major forces against the— once there's poverty, there will be wrong choices. Hello, are you following what I'm saying? Once there's poverty, there will be what? Wrong choices. Once there's poverty, there will be anger. Once there's poverty, there'll be irrationality. Have you been hungry before? You have— hey, look at you guys! What? Do you know what hunger means? You don't look like one who's been hungry. I know the botanical name of hunger. Do you know what hunger is? I shared my story with you. I was in Ghana, food finished, money finished, hunger came like a bandit. Hunger. I'm telling you my story. Serious hunger. One time they said one man brought food, or no, a girl, me that I was preaching that you people stop going to Kaibe Ibu's daughter. You are in here for a while, you are Kaibe Ibu's daughter. One boy's side chick was the one that brought banku. The kind of hunger that has helped me change my conviction. People gathered around banku to eat banku. Ah, I looked right and look left. If I don't eat this banku, I don't know where the next meal will come from. I washed my hands, whether I even washed it well, I can't remember, because I saw one of my friends there who was eating the banku. Ah, he's a pastor. I say, if this guy is here, I'm here. So I— but that my friend, I've always known that he's very, very smart. But I didn't know the extent. So people were dipping their hands into the plates and taking banku with this light soup, this Ghana soup, the soup that wants to take it to meet you here, that soup. So they were eating. As I put my hand, it burnt me. It was so hot. But I saw people on Gaza be eating And I saw that my friend was just taking, but I didn't know that my friend was not eating it. He was taking the banku, dipping it inside soup, and was putting another plate. I went to copy. As I ate the banku, it was as if I swallowed volcano. People of God, hunger is a bastard. It was as if I swallowed volcano. I stood, I stretched like fire pass to my loins, and I had not eaten for days. So that's how one terrible pain started. The following day, no food. I stood Somebody said they went somewhere to go and bring coconut and say people can drink the water. People of God, that's how I fainted. When people faint, I used to say, why are you fainting? I fainted. They came to pour water on my head and say, Pastor, start praying. Pastor, Pastor, wake up. Sanga. The people who could not help me, suddenly they contributed money. I said I should use for transport fare. They were taking me to a place in Ghana, Ghana, I know where I talk about, Keta Municipal Hospital, Volta Region. I looked at the money, I said to myself, if this driver will kill me, let him kill me, I will eat first. I told the driver, we got to a place called Angloga, I said park. I called the person selling bread or whatever it is, Give me bread now. I called the one selling Fanta, give me cold one. I've used all my money now, driver, it will kill me. I'm saying my loyalty is to this food first. People of God, I sat down there ready for the consequence, but God helped me. Somebody was struggling with his phone, I configured it for him. I said you should pay my transport, so he paid. I got to the hospital, they were giving me drugs. Give me— the sister came. Ah, Pastor, how are you now? So, so sorry. They gave me spag with fish and tea. I said I would never be fine. You mean there's this kind of food for you when you are sick? Why should I be fine? Tell me why I should be fine. I'm sick now, there's this kind of food. I'm here for a long time. They were giving me daily injection. I don't mind. Bring the food. The nurse will come and say, uh, you are fine now. Yeah, you have to go.
Are you me?
I'm not fine. I'm not fine. Later, the sisters discovered that, ah, what is wrong with our pastor is not Sickness, oh, is hunger. So one of them just came to me and said, Pastor, it's like you don't want to go back to your own base. Should we help you get a place around us where we can be cooking? And I said, ah, nurse, come and remove this catheter, I'm fine now. I'm talking about hunger. Hunger can make you forget your name. You don't know what hunger is. See, if you, if you, if you, if you don't, if you have never had to wake up to check where the next meal will come from, then you don't know what God has done for you. Hunger is real, sir. What I have just described is the daily reality of many people, and that's why I said I want this whole thing to go down. From PPC, all of us, we're going to buy 100 bags of rice and we're going to distribute, going to go to places and share. So is he a man who is that hungry that you offer ₦5,000 and say vote for this candidate? That will not vote. Somebody was carrying placard and saying no to protest and was speaking about hunger. Hunger, na omete. You—
are you kidding me?
Somebody carry placard say no to protest for 5K, and the guy was saying we can't buy Gary. My brother, better wake up. This is serious matter. Are you following what I'm saying here? Hunger is real. Hunger is real. I want us to pray that God will use you and I to change narratives. Come on, let's pray, let's pray, let's pray, let's pray. He will use us, he will use us to change narratives. He will use us, he will use us to change narratives. It will use us. It will use us to change narratives. It will use us to wipe away tears of people, to change narratives. It will use us. Please pray that creative ideas and innovations will be better through us.
Please pray, please pray, please pray, please pray.
In Jesus' Mighty name we're praying. Amen. Anybody who knows me knows that I don't take onions, except you will kill me. One time my friend say, ah, there's onions in this food, one year. I said, ah, no, no, no, no, I can't, I don't take onions, I don't take onions. One time that my friend came to greet me He saw me taking garri, then spiced onions, raw, put pepper, put salt on top, spiced. Ah, he said, Pastor, you don't eat top one? I said, my brother, person where they hungry, no they select, you no get choice. Poverty is a bastard. When you look at our people, people just want to survive. That's why you can't— you, you, you hearing me now, you can't be discouraged to take your own life. Destinies are tied to you. The cycle of pain won't end until you win. You can't. That's why you, you are fighting to come out. You will fight till the end. You know, people say that when you are struggling, nobody sees you, so now that God has blessed you, you're not going to say— but no, no, no, no, that's not the way leaders think. When you ask, people are busy with their problems too. Are you following what I'm saying here? I'm telling you, people are busy with their problems too. That's not the way leaders think. How did the Israelites move from where they were to Egypt now and became slaves for 400 years? Onga o. In the Bible, Onga. 400 years. It was food that brought them to Egypt now. 400 years. In fact, 430 years. I want us to pray for the leadership of Nigeria. That every influence around the— that, see, listen, every influence around that position of power, God will expose them and give— see, listen, it doesn't matter how angry you are, it is our duty to pray for our leaders whether you like them or not. It is our biblical duty. It's that simple. Bye-bye. You don't say let's throw away Bible and— no, bye-bye. Let's pray for the president. God will help him to be able to make decisions that will better people's life. Let's pray, let's pray, let's pray, let's pray for the president. Let's pray for the governors. Let's pray for the governors. Let's pray for them. Let's pray for them. Let's pray for them that God will give them the insight to build the nation that works for everyone. And to make the right decisions. You are in Uganda, pray for your president. You are in Rwanda, pray for your president. You are in Kenya, pray for your president. You are in Botswana, pray for your president. You are in Lesotho, you are in South Africa, you are in Algeria, Wherever you are listening from, pray for your leaders that they will make wise decisions such that will lift people out of pain.
Please pray. Please pray. Please pray. Please pray.
Please pray, please pray, please pray, pray, pray that wrong influence around that seat of power will diminish. Please pray, pray for leadership position in South Africa. In Ghana, in Côte d'Ivoire, in Cameroon, in Nigeria. Pray in Namibia, in Zambia, in Tanzania. Pray in the name of Jesus that the Lord will influence these people by himself and raise voices of positive influence. Raise voices of positive influence. Raise voices of positive influence that right decisions will be made. Right decisions will be made. Pray for the leadership of these countries that they will do what is right. They will do what is right. In Jesus' mighty name we're praying. Amen. Now I believe that God is raising some of us to be to a place where we will be Um, will be strategic in mentoring and advising kings. I've been a few times able to speak with a few of the leaders, some governors, um, and I want to really think that before people get to that place of power, they want to do well. But there are existing forces that even though they were part of some revolutions to make sure— go and check what happened with Robert Mugabe, Zimbabwe. Am I correct? Yes, sir. He was part of the freedom fighters. He was the frontliner, only to hold the country hostage for years. Because there are, there are forces around power, whether you believe it or not. I've taught message— see, there is no corner Nigeria wants to find herself that I've not taught a message on how to come out operating in the corridors of power. These are teachings I've taught. So there are voices around the corridors of power. The most influential people may not even be known, and yet they control things. So there are forces, and I just want you to know that. And I want you to know that sometimes it is easy to stay outside and not know what is going on inside. That's why God is going to give you the wisdom and the insight that will give you access points into the corridors of power. Daniels will rise amongst us. Josephs will rise amongst us. Esthers will rise amongst us. Deborahs will rise amongst us. Men who understand times and seasons, who know where we should go, will rise amongst us. Amen. There are some of us that whether we like it or not, we have a role to play in this nation. That's the truth. Not to be partisan, but to be a positive force of influence, to be fathers to kings. And we are coming there. I didn't hear amen to that. Amen. We are coming there. Amen. I'm just going to say this as touching African nations. Um, the pattern has shown that not too long after there is offense at the church in any country, there is chaos. It's a pattern. You can check Rwanda, you can check Uganda, you can check Kenya, you can check. Don't say I told you. I've just seen that it's like— not because the church is perfect, but because there must be an entity that will not stop praying. Because we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against— you have to understand, there are dark forces. There are dark forces. If the devil wants somebody to die young, he will need corporate forces and corporate times of affair to make sure there are policies that ensures it happens, or negligence. Somebody is being operated upon and they are forgetting things inside the person. Now make that make sense. How do you forget forceps in a person? No, make it make sense. You tell me that things are just the way they And many of you, let me say this to you because I need to say this. Many of you used to say that it's only Nigeria that they pray for nations. Is it prayer they used to do, um, in China? Is it prayer they are using in, in Europe and all that? You have not traveled. That's why you are saying what you're saying. I said you have not traveled. Let me tell you something. When I travel, the places where they even pray more He's outside the country. I say he's outside the country. Depressa. Many of them are here, they know what I'm saying now. You think battle is limited to your continent? I was in Italy, flight was postponed for how many hours? Because there was strike. You see white guys sitting on the floor. I say CNN will not carry this one now. If it was Nigeria, they would think they are the only ones. On the floor, they were there, women and children. Copy and paste, just look at you, anybody. I'm telling you fact. I was passing through Venice, or Venice, everywhere smelling. I said, you see, everywhere smelling. Are you following what I'm saying here? Now I'm telling you fact. We say China, one idea to be like China. Do you know how dark the communist system is? There is a group of people in China that they discovered that they were breeding. They will give food, everything, exercise, this, this. They will indoctrinate them, but they were breeding them for organ harvesting. Dark places. You think is this, this, this? Anybody— we have people in China now, let them comment and tell When people have not, have not traveled, they say that place, that because you are talking about film, Hollywood. Ah, no, that's not reality. Yeah, I'm just telling you the way Nigerians are saying we hate Nigerian pastors, Ghanaians are saying we hate Ghanaian pastors. Kenyans are saying we hate Kenyan pastors. I'm not saying that's an excuse for us to be— are you feeling what I'm saying? Yes. Aha. But I'm just telling you that pray for your own nation, okay? Pray for your own country. So it's not like there are no times that I travel and I don't want to come back home. And I— there are times I travel, I don't want to come back. I said I should just put 2 plus 2 together and japa. But you have to come back, you have to come back, okay? So you have to come back. When you think of Pastor Mimi, say let me go back home, all right? So you have to come back, all right? But I'm just, I'm just, but I'm just, I just have to tell you, all right? I just have to tell you that. So we have the responsibility to what? To pray. Are you following what I'm saying? There. We have the rest. No country will show you their weakness. Everybody with them, if there's anything— I was in Venice, so these Venice people want to go to. All of our pastors in London, our resident pastor-in-law, say, ah, Apostle, please make sure you enjoy yourself in Venice. Ah, I said, okay, I will. So I went to Venice. Now I said, if you treat Makoko, Makoko in Lagos, treat the water well. Build some things on top, you have Venice. Now PR, PR. Take picture now, say, ah, Apostle is enjoying his life, he's just relaxing. Are you too? You no go post for camera. Are you following what I'm saying? Focus on your own country and pray. And labor. God told us that the time is coming that our people who have gone to other countries will return back home for the rebuilding of the walls of this nation. It is going to be Nigeria by Nigerians, it will be Africa by Africans, it will be Ghana by Ghanaians, it will be Kenya by Kenyans, um, and it's going to happen. It will be Côte d'Ivoire by Ivorians. It's where it's going to happen. We're going to see people return back from different parts of the world because bread will come back. I didn't hear amen to that. Wait, we'll come back. Um, this nation will work. Yes, this nation will work. The hand of God will help us. We are not going to hand over a failed nation to the next generation. You know, sometimes the fear is, um, we were born into this thing. Um, how do we now, um, hand over one that is failed again to our children? The day my daughter shouted up nepa, I felt bad. I was almost depressed because that's one statement I never wanted them to say. You see that? But eventually, when nepa brought light one of those days, she said up nepa. And I said, I said up nepa at your age, now you are saying it again. Affliction should not arise the second time. This one has risen already. You see that? But it is what it is. What do we do? Do we destroy everything and break everything down? No. We play our own part. We pray for our leaders, we pray for those who are in authority, and we demand for what is right, but we also do our own part. I believe that Nigeria will be great. Prophecies have gone ahead of this nation. That a time will come this nation will be known for corruption and despised of all nations on the face of the earth. Another time will come that this nation will be known for righteousness, for development, and all nations will want to have Nigerians as friend. I believe we are in the beginning of the birthing phase of that. What Africa is experiencing now is the birth pang, all right, of childbirth. But as soon as Zion travails, she brings forth. There is a travailing that comes with pain. It is messy, um, it is with tears and all that. But after that comes the sound of a new baby. We are about to enter that phase where we'll see things being better. I need your amen to that. Just one more time, pray again. That God will help the leaders of this nation to make right decision. Let's pray, let's pray, let's pray, let's pray, let's pray. In our own lifetime, this nation will work. Help the leaders make wise decisions. Help them do what is right. Help them, Lord, do what is right. Please pray.
Please pray, please pray, please pray.
Thank you, Lord. We bless your holy name. In Jesus' mighty name we are praying. Amen. Father, we want to thank you for today and the opportunity you've given to us to pray in agreement with our brothers who are joining from different nations. We join our faith together to intercede for our nations. Please help us, Lord, and help this continent. We are asking that you help all countries represented in this continent in the name of Jesus. Help Nigeria, help Ghana, help Kenya, help South Africa, help Zimbabwe, Help Algeria, help Namibia, help Djibouti, help Tanzania, in the name of Jesus. Amen. Help Central Africa region, help Chad, help Niger. Raise the leaders that will rule in righteousness and voices of peace. We are praying that there will be the emergence of thought leaders that will mentor kings. There will be emergence of Nehemiahs and Ezra's, men who are rebuilders. Daniels will rise, Josephs will rise in the name of Jesus. You help us, Lord. Help every sector that will do what is right. We pray against bloodshed, we pray against disrupted agitations, that there will be no bloodshed, there will be no death in the name of Jesus. Again, we cover these nations with the blood of Jesus and we are asking for Please help us. Thank you, blessed Father, in Jesus' mighty name. Amen. God bless you. Love you guys so much. Um, can't wait to see you. Tomorrow is Saturday, right? All right, so it means the next time we are seen again is when? On Monday morning. All right, while we wait till then, I want to beg you in the name of Jesus, stay safe. Nobody can take your civil right from you, that whatever it is, but stay safe and obey rule of law. Don't vandalize, don't destroy. You want your voice to be heard, we want our voices to be heard. Project your voice, but don't destroy and don't, don't die. Don't die. Having suffered all you have suffered, don't die. Stay safe. We pray. Don't stop those who are praying from praying while the nation is doing what they want, what we want to do. We must join forces. We pray, all right, but don't get yourself endangered. So this is a plea from me to you. You want to go out, check regions, check what is going on around those areas. You want to type check, call people there before you go out. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, he will protect you and cover you with his blood. I want you to know that we are praying for you and we are praying for ourselves too. God will bless Nigeria and God will bless the continent of Africa in Jesus' name. The next voice you hear after now is the voice of the altar call. I look forward to seeing you in one piece on Monday. God bless you, love you guys, bye-bye. Today is the day of salvation and you know what that means. It is the day for you to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. God so loved you, he sent his only begotten Son to this world to die for your sins. There is no sin too big, nothing you have done that is beyond redemption. The hand of God is outstretched to you wide for you to accept him today into your life and end all that the devil is trying to do with your life. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, if any man be in Christ, a new creature, all things are passed away. And the Bible says all things are new. May I announce to you that all things can be new today. How do you give your life to Christ? Believe that Jesus is the Son of God sent to this world to die for your sins, and he rose on the third day for your justification. And today he's extending his hands to you to accept him as your Lord and Savior. And all you have to do is to hold out your hands and say these words after me. Lord Jesus, I believe that you came into this world to die for my sins. I believe that you died for my sins. I also believe that you rose on the third day for my justification. Today I accept you as my Lord and Savior, and I accept this gift of eternal life. In Jesus' name, amen. May I announce to you, if you have made that decision, that there is so much joy in heaven right right now. Angels are rejoicing and there's so much joy. We have a contact on the screen and the barcode for you to scan if you have just made that decision, so that we will be able to reach you and help you get discipled and get you grounded in the rudiments of the gospel. I love you so much. We can't wait to see you again. Keep watching Ambience TV. God bless you.
He's about to do something new. He's about to do something new. I can feel it in my bones, something new. He's about to do something new. He says, I'll make streams in the desert. He's about to do something new. He's about to do something new. Can you see it? I feel it. He's about to do something new. Open your eyes and see it. He's making streams in the deserts, something new. Oh, he's exalting every Everybody something. Oh, I'm here to prophesy.
