DAY FIVE
SUMMARY
(MORNING AND EVENING SESSION)
MORNING SESSION (Moderator – Pastor Barr. Jinadu Idowu (RP, Region 26)
The day five of the “You shall be a Blessing” convention began with an heartfelt opening prayer by Pastor Samson Adebayo (DDF). The choir launched the congregants into a deep realm of worship and praise.
Pastor Theophilus Ajadi (GOFAMINT, Australia) led extremely powerful prayers for Divine resolution of all spiritual, family and financial problems, the unsaved children and marital delay.
The congregational song “Guide Me Oh Thou Great Jehovah” was led by the choir after which Elder (Prof.) Eyitope Ogunbodede was introduced as the minister for the morning tonic. He spoke on the topic, “Modern Technology in Nation Building”. He stressed the importance of technology to the growth of the Christian and also stressed the need for everyone to strive to have the knowledge of at least an Artificial Intelligence “Chatbot” e.g., Chatgpt, Deepseek, Gemini, Co-pilot and a few others.
He explained that one key way to shine is by understanding the use of these technologies because every nation is measured by the level of their knowledge in the use of technologies. Although technology has a positive side and a negative side. However, it is important to understand that its usage is more prominent. He buttressed his teaching with Exodus 32:2 – 5 and Hosea 4:6. Pastor Tosin Oladapo was then invited to pray for the ministers.
Pastor Osota Kunle (RP, Region 28) led the congregation to give their service offering and Pastor Paul Edu was invited to take short testimonies which includes that of a Seriki in Kaduna State who showered the praise of God through GOFAMINT and her envoys in that state. He was excited and promised to go back to his community to spread the light He had gotten from the Gospel City. Another jaw-breaking testimony was that of a market woman at Mile 12 who was trusting God for a miracle to break her out of her state of debt. She plugged in to the convention with faith and was playing the convention livestream via a loud Bluetooth speaker and a young boy who had been lost for over 2 months was found by his mother just because the boy waited and was locked in by the Holy Spirit to keep shouting “Amen” to the prayers from the speaker.
The amazing choir gave two wonderful selections and The General Overseer introduced Elder Gbenga Abina to take the fourth teaching with the theme: Application of Abraham’s Calling: Salvation. One of the core of the teaching was that salvation delivers one from the power of sin, the penalty of sin and the presence of sin. He further highlighted that there are three stages of salvation; Justification, Sanctification and Glorification. His teaching was backed by powerful words of knowledge and pronouncements of power. He rounded off his teaching with an altar call where multitudes stepped out and gave their lives to Jesus.
He was prayed for by the General Secretary (Pastor Femi Omowumi) after which the General Overseer prayed for people with different heart-cries. Pastor Amos Adeleke (IP, Region 29) did the announcements and the G.O. said the closing prayer and benediction.
Sincerely, unusual things have been happening since the inception of this convention. Miracles, Signs, Wonders and accurate prophecies which connotes that God is indeed intentional about making YOU a BLESSING!!!
Hallelujah!
