    Now the convention this year is going to be very peculiar and the reason is not

    everybody is invited. Am sure that will surprise you, you see if Jesus changes your

    circumstances and does not change you, very soon the circumstances will go bad

    again. If you are healed but you are not transformed by God, sooner or later you will

    still die. I mean Lazarus was raised from the dead, where is he now? Dead a long time

    ago! The convention for this year alone is for those who are hungry for divine

    transformation, those who want to be changed in out.

    The convention this year is not for jokers, it is only for those who are hungry for God

    who are thirsty for righteousness, who are desperately in need of God, who want toknow God, who wants to be like Jesus Christ, if you dont satisfy this condition please

    dont come. There wont be enough space anyway, so if you are not coming for serious

    business with God, please stay at home. Because from day number one it is going to be

    heavy stuff. There is not going to be any lecture that will be child play, everything

    during this year convention is going to be heavy stuff. You see there are three kinds of

    Christians; baby Christians who drink milk, adult Christians who eat meat, and then

    there are those I call the bone crackers, those who crack bones so they can get the

    marrows.

    The convention of this year is going to be for bone crackers, so if you are not ready for

    serious businesses I beg you in the name of Jesus, please stay at home. The

    convention this year is not for jokers; if you are not serious, If you dont want to come

    and seek God so that you can be transformed inside out. Please dont bother to come.

    If I dont come on the first few days when there will be heavy teaching, cant I come on

    Friday of the holy Ghost service; that will be the heaviest day of all, because this year

    we want to talk about JESUS.

    We dont want to talk about Father Christmas, we want to talk about Jesus, we wantto talk about the unchangeable changer, we want to talk about the one who is the

    same today, yesterday and forever, we dont want to talk about the modern Jesus, we

    want to talk about the old time Jesus. If you are not ready for old time religion please

    dont come. You have been warned! This years convention will be very, very peculiar,

    by the time we finished if the Lord hasnt come, the few of you who comes will say this

    is the greatest convention we have ever had. How many of you will still come in spite

    of what I said? Are you sure? To be forward is to be for armed.28V38

    Tonight we want to talk about the wonders ofDIVINE BLESSING.Genesis 12 v 1-3 now the Lord has said to Abraham get thee out thy country and from

    thy kindred and from thy fathers house, unto a land that I will show thee, and I will

    make thee of great nation, and I will bless thee, and make the name great, and thou

    shall be a blessing and I will bless them that bless thee, I shall curse they that curse

    thee and in thee shall all family of the earth be blessed.

    That passage alone tells you that when a man is blessed, his friends are also blessed,

    he said I will bless them that blessed thee and his enemies are in trouble because he

    said I will curse him that curseth thee. When a man is truly blessed, even his children

    are blessed, He said through thy seed shall all the earth be blessed, I pray forsomebody here today may the Almighty God bless you, may your children be blessed,

    may your friends be blessed. May your enemies repent! Otherwise they will be introuble.Genesis 24 v 34-35 someone was speaking here and he said I am Abrahams servant

    and the Lord has blessed my master greatly and he has become great and he has

    given him flocks and herds and silver and gold and men servants and maid servantand Carmel and ashes. May it be said of you very soon, that God has blessed yougreatly!What do we mean when we say blessing?The speaker before me has given a very beautiful academic definitions, but I will

    want to just put it in the language of a market woman and say there are two basic

    definitions of blessing.

    Number one: when all needs are met and then something extra comes on top of it.Psalm 23 v5 David said thou prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies,thou anoint my head with oil, my cup runs over. When the cup is running over, we are

    talking about blessing. If you already had enough and now you have something extra.

    For example, to be well is good, to be healthy is wonderful, but health is a necessity.

    Blessings come when instead of just being healthy, healing virtues begin to flow out of

    you, when you are so healthy that you lay hands on anybody and they recovered, then

    you are blessed.

    And am praying for everyone here today, from tonight henceforth any one you touchwill receive a blessing.

    But the spiritual definition of a blessing is a summon to forces; all forces on earth, in

    heaven, underneath the earth to come to the aid of someone, so that the fellow will

    succeed and excel. Am going to read to you a passage from the scripture which the

    preacher before spent so much time on because it is very essential. Genesis 27v 27-29

    it is the blessing of Isaac on Jacob.

    And he came near and he kissed him, and he smells the smell of his raiment and he

    blessed him saying see: the smell of my son, is like the field which the Lord Has

    blessed. Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven and the fatness of the earth,

    and plenty of corn and wine, let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee. Be

    Lord over thy brethren and let your mother son bow down to thee, cursed be anyone

    that curses thee and blessed be anyone who blesses you.

    That is a classical example of what a blessing is; a summon to all the forces in heaven,

    all the forces on earth and all the forces underneath the earth to come and assist

    somebody so that that fellow will succeed and excel. Here Isaac said God give thee of

    the dew of heaven; that is help from heaven and when God gives you dew from heaven

    according to Zachariah 8 v 12 then the seed you plant shall prosper, your vine will be

    fruitful and the ground will give the increase.

    And then he went further and say not only is heaven to help you, he said also of the

    fatness of the earth. Psalm 36 v 38 says when that happens you will get abundant

    satisfaction. Not just satisfied, but satisfied abundantly.

    Then he moved on to say let people serve thee. And when you see Genesis 26 v 12

    14 the Bible tells us that Isaac had stores of servants. He has servant so many that he

    was practically keeping them in stores. Do you know that Esau who came after his

    brother left and got just the remnant of the blessings from his father ended up with

    four hundred servants? Remnant blessing; Four hundred servants!

    Am prophesying to someone here today, very very soon the num ber of people you arefeeding will exceed four hundred.

    What happens when a man is blessed?Number one:Heaven will assist him. Deuteronomy 28v12 says when you are blessed,then you will get rain in season to bless the work of your hands. If you ask any farmer

    he will tell you the greatest thing a farmer pray for is that the rain will fall when due.

    If it falls too soon, it will destroy the crop. If it fails to fall at the right time the crop

    will not mature. Rain in season!

    I pray for you that from today onward you will enjoy rain in season.When a man is blessed, even the sun and the moon will corporate with him Joshua10

    v 12- 14 Joshua was fighting and the sun was about to set, he lifted up his eyes to

    heaven and said sun stay where you are, moon stay where you are until I finished my

    assignment. The sun corporate, the moon corporate because Joshua was a blessed

    man.

    2 kings 20 v 1 -11 Ezekiel was sick, God said he was going to die, he cried to God and

    said I dont want to go yet, God said alright I will prolong your life, I give you

    additional fifteen years and he asked the man of God, will you give me a sign? The

    man of God said what sign do you want? He said I want the sun to go back; tell the

    sun to retrace its step. When you are blessed even the sun will corporate with you.

    I can give you several examples when we say the sun and the moon will corporate

    with you it has a deeper meaning; it means season will corporate with you. I give you

    an illustration or two and I have evidence and witnesses here. Some years ago when

    we were starting bible study fellowship at University of Ibadan (UI), we were only five

    when we start in the house of Professor Aboaba.

  • 7/29/2019 The Wonders of Divine Blessings 5th July

    5/16

    5 | P a g e

    The Bible study grew, more and more professors joined us so the sitting room couldnt

    contain us, so we moved to the backyard. One day as were settling down for Bible

    study, rain came and you know professors, they wanted to run away. And I lifted my

    hands and I said rain you cant fall now. Rain fell everywhere in UI, except the

    compound of Professor Aboaba, if you dont belief me ask him he will tell you.

    I give you another example; we went to Abeokuta to hold a crusade, in front of the

    palace. Just as I gave the altar call and people where begin to troop forward. Rain

    came and the people who were surging forward suddenly began to move back. So I

    said rain, stay where you are you cant fall now, and rain rolled like carpet away from

    where we were holding the meeting. I think that happened on Saturday. The program

    was for three days, on Monday when we finished and as I was about to close the

    meeting, Pastor Abatan came to me and said sir, you are going, will you please release

    the rain?

    I mentioned names so that you can check these are true stories. I said rain will fall

    after we leave, we tidy up and we did everything. Less than 30 minutes after we left

    town, rain came. Beginning from today even the sun and the moon will corporate with

    you. Maybe I should tell you one or two more; Some years ago, I was invited to a very

    important meeting in a place called Denver Colorado in United State and the meeting

    was going to take place in January and those who knows America knows that Denver

    can be very , very cold in January.

    It was in the middle of winter, I said daddy should I go? He said go. I said what arewe going to do about winter? He said dont worry about that. I was there for three

    days; they are hearing me now from all over the world so you can be sure those who

    were there then will remember. During the three days I was there people where

    wearing t-shirt because summer came. I left the place at 5pm, before 6pm, 12

    centimeter of snow filled the place. Some of you have heard the story before; years ago

    when the only auditorium we had here was the first auditorium beside the road. I

    wanted to pray in the night, the whole of this place was jungle and some people came

    to pray in the auditorium and they were so loud, I wasnt getting sufficient silence for

    my meditation.

    So I took my touch light and I was walking along the bush path, I went deeper and

    deeper into the jungle so I can focus on God. Now it was one of this modern touch light

    with rechargeable batteries, when I switch it on when I was leaving home the light

    was bright, after I had gone far into the jungle, very close to the river there, suddenly

    I pressed the touch light because I heard a sound and the light went out. Ah! How do I

    get black? It was pitched black. Darkness! How do I move through the jungle back to

    where there was some little light, the light then wasnt much!

    Then I remembered that when I was young, our teacher told us that if you suddenly

    find yourself in darkness, if you close your eyes, by the time you open your eyes, the

  • 7/29/2019 The Wonders of Divine Blessings 5th July

    6/16

    6 | P a g e

    darkness wont be so dark anymore. So I closed my eyes by the time I opened my eyes,

    there was bright moon light, all over the place. And I walked all the way back to

    where there was light and then I remembered there was no moon light when I was

    going, how come? And I looked up and there was no moon. When you are blessed, the

    sun, the moon, the rain will corporate with you.

    And the prayer I am about to pray now, is for my children only. Forgive me! All thosewho call me daddy, even as God has blessed me so shall He bless you.

    Do you know in Matthew 2 v 1-11 it was a star that guided the wise men to where

    Jesus was. When you are blessed the heaven begins to help. When we say the heavens

    begin to help that also includes those beings that live in heaven; Angels. In 1King 19 v

    4-8, it was an Angel that brought food to Elijah. Two times; when he was discourage,

    when he was feeling that he should die, God sent an angel to bring him food. In Daniel

    6 v 19 -22 it was an Angel that came and stopped the mouth of lions so that theycouldnt touch Daniel.

    In Act 12 v 5-11 it was an angel that came and set Peter free in prison, the night

    before he was to be killed. In 2Kings 19 v 32 -37 it was a single angel from the Lord

    that fought against Sennacherib and destroy one hundred and eighty thousand

    soldiers in one night, why? Because King Hezekiah was blessed. In Matthew 2 v 13-15

    it was an angel that warned Joseph in a dream that Herod was about to kill his

    beloved son.

    Now when we talk about angels, when you see some drawing of angel, you will see

    them drawing small babies with wings, those are not angels, maybe those are demons

    I dont know. Let me tell you the truth I have seen angels several times and I am

    telling you, they are huge, every angel that I have ever seen, they are so big that every

    time you see an angel, the first thing he will tell you is fear not. You know why?

    Because you will be frightened! They are big! One sister wrote about a time when they

    were in an airplane, a 747 and everything was turbulent and it appeared as if they

    were about to crash and as she cried to God, she looked out of the window, she saw an

    angel smiling at her, carrying the plane in the palm of his hand. I prophecy tosomeone here today, the angel that will take care of all your enemies will pay you avisit tonight in Jesus name.But angel can transform into something you can handle and I give you an example; Ill

    tell you a story that some of you have heard before. When I was a little child, I cant

    remember how old I was, I was probably be about 6 or 7years old, one of my elder

    sister got married and moved away to her husbands farm. So I asked when we met,

    where is your farm? And she described the place; when you get to this place you turn

    right; you get to that place you turn left. And as a little child I just decided that I am

    going to visit my sister in the farm, I didnt know far is not very far, so I began to go.

    7/16

    7 | P a g e

    I took this place, I turned left that place, suddenly I didnt even know where I was

    anymore, I didnt know how to get back home, I didnt know how to get back to her

    farm, I was lost! In my own little childish way I looked up to heaven and said God

    help me, by the time I looked down I saw this little white dog, I dont know how it

    appeared. But I saw this little white dog and it was wagging his tail and looking at me

    as if I am a friend, and since I didnt know where I was going anyway, so I followedthe dog, maybe the dog will lead me to somewhere where people will help me and the

    dog led me to the farm of my sister.

    When I got there and my sister saw me, she said, How did you come here? Who

    brought you here? I said that little white dog, She said there is no dog on this farm.

    We came out, looked outside the hut and there was no dog. I believed very firmly that

    God sent an angel to rescue me so I can stand before you to preach to you tonight.

    I pray for somebody here tonight that the Almighty God w ill send help to somebodyhere tonight.Number two, forces on earth will assist.The Lord said there is someone here this night; He said your day of affliction will endthis month. Do you know God can use birds to help you? Psalm 105 v 40 said thechildren of Israel asked Him and God brought quails. The children of Israel said they

    wanted meat, and the Bible says, the quail came and by the time they arrived, they

    were just picking them up as much as they wanted. In 1King 17 v 2-6 God sent ravens

    to bring food to Elijah twice a day. They didnt miss their way. Fish, God can use fishto bless you, we know the story of Jonah very well, Jonah 1 v 15-17 the Bible tells us

    that when Jonah was thrown into the sea, it was a big fish that swallowed him, when

    God finished with him over there, it was the same fish that went to vomited him on

    dry ground Jonah 2 v 10.

    In Matthew 17 v24-27 when Peter wanted to pay tax, the Lord asked him to go and

    catch a fish, open its mouth you will find a coin there, a fish brought money to Peter.

    You know I have always tell you, there is a fish beside you, and the money you need is

    in his mouth, it is waiting to be caught and you know what that means. I am talking

    of somebody waiting to be saved, someone that you go out and fished for is soul, when

    you win him, everything you can ever need is already there in his hands.

    In Luke 5 v 1-7 somebody was telling the story of Peter who fished all night and

    caught nothing, then suddenly he threw his net and caught so much fish that his boat

    and that of his friend began to sink. And he said what happened was that as he was

    throwing the net all the fish was just jumping in, why? Because Peter was a blessed

    man.

    I pray for somebody here tonight; every help that you need on earth, will you receive ittonight in the name of Jesus.

    He said let the heavens help you by sending dews, let the earth help you, forces on

    earth and he included that by saying let men serve you. You know when you are

    blessed human beings will become vessel of honor in Gods hands bringing blessings to

    you. You know I read that passage to you where he said that I am Abraham servant

    and God has blessed my master greatly. You want to know where that blessing comesfrom. Check Genesis 12 v 14-15 all the blessing that Abraham suddenly had came

    from Pharaoh. You know the Bible says the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the

    just.

    I can guarantee you that before the end of the year, there will be wealth transfer.When the Bible says in Genesis 30 v 27-43, the Bible tells us that Jacob increased

    exceedingly, where did he get the blessings from? It was transferred from Laban, In

    fact when you read Genesis 31 v 1, the children of Laban said this man came and tookover the wealth of our father. Let men help you! When you are blessed, blessing will

    begin to flow in from people, those you know and those you dont know. I was studying

    the Bible, then I say wait a minute they said Solomon became stinking rich.

    Where did he get this money from? And then I saw 2Chronicles 9 v 13-14 the money

    came from all the kings of Arabia and all the governors of the land, they were all

    joyfully bringing all their wealth to him. Then I saw another example in 2Chronicle 20

    v 1-25 it tells you the story of Jehoshaphat which you know very well, Jehoshaphat

    love the Lord, he was a worshipper of God, but he was poor. So God decided lets blessthis boy. And so He inspired three kings to rise up against him and he told them go

    and take over Jehoshaphats land.

    He has no army. It would be a work over. So they were going to war, but they came to

    war loaded with money, loaded with silver, loaded with gold. They were wearing

    golden earrings, they were wearing bangles because there is not going to be any real

    fight anyway; lets just go and have fun. And the Almighty God moves, as soon as

    these Kings got close to Jehospaht, they killed themselves, and the Bibles said when

    Jehoshaphat came to carry the wealth. It took three days to carry the spoil. All thewealth of your enemy shall come back to you very soon.Forces in Heaven will help the one who is blessed, forces on earth will help the one

    who is blessed, and this may be difficult for you to handle but even forces under the

    earth, forces that you will call demonic forces they will come and help the one who is

    blessed. I know that is difficult for you to swallow, but I will show you from the Bible.

    For example, when you read 1Samuel 16 v 15-23 what happened here? David has

    been anointed king, he was to be king over isreal but he was a shepherd boy, he didnt

    know how they behave in the royal house, he didnt know what happens in the palace

    and God wanted to train him under the king that he was going to replace.

    How did God do it? You know the story; an evil spirit from the Lord came and beganto trouble king Saul and the servant of king Saul went to him and said sir, an evil

    spirit is troubling you, you are mad! You need somebody who can play very well so

    that you will be refreshed. And somebody answered and said I know somebody, I know

    a young boy called David the son of Jesse, he is very good at playing the harp, the king

    said go and bring him. You know one day God sent me to one head of state in Africaseveral years ago. And I was trying to tell him how good God has been to him, that

    God used the British to give him scholarship to come to Britain to study.

    After they trained him, he came back and rose up against the British and took his

    country away from the British. God took this man into the palace of the man he was

    going to replace for training. I am prophesy into someone here today, even your enemywill become a blessings to you very soon. I can give you several examples, let me justtell you one; in my village, in my compound there was a woman; everybody knew her

    to be a witch and she didnt hide it. As a matter of fact she had killed one or two of herown children and so everybody was kind of afraid of her. And in those days, am

    talking of 1950s when we want to study at night, we eat Kola nut, how many of you

    know what am talking about?

    If you know what am talking about you must be old. Many of us didnt even know

    there was anything called coffee and if there was coffee, there was no money for coffee

    but kola nut was plenty and we kept on eating kola nut. I love studying at night so I

    eat kola nut, and if you asked the elders they will tell you one f the eldest way to kill

    somebody is to give him a poison kola nut. One day I was in my village, enjoying mykola nut when this woman, a notable witch called me and said Enoch, stop eating

    kola nut! when I told my mother, my mother said oh God! That is the one who says

    stop eating kola nut! I said even myself I have made up my mind, never again! Even a

    witch can be a blessing!

    All your enemies from today onward will become a blessing to you in Jesus name. TheLord asked me to tell someone here tonight; He said because eagles fly alone; prepare

    to pay the price for your coming greatness.I hope whoever concerned will understand. So a single pronouncement of God bless

    you, can have tremendous implications. Many people dont know the value of God

    bless you. I mean for example two nights ago, I was going around the camp praying

    and there was this young man and I could see that he was agitated; he probably had a

    lot of problems.

    He saw that I was praying instead of leaving me alone, no he wouldnt. He and said

    daddy pray for me, so in order for me to be able to continue with my prayers, I said

    God bless you. I thought he will be so happy and go away rejoicing, he said amen, he

    said but I want you to pray for me. I want to say to somebody here tonight; God bless

    you! When God blesses you, you wont lack anything again, because He owns all, the

  • 7/29/2019 The Wonders of Divine Blessings 5th July

    10/16

    10 | P a g e

    earth is the Lord and the fullness thereof. Silver belong to Him, gold belongs to Him,

    the cattle upon a thousand hills belongs to Him.

    The Bible says God has spoken ones twice have I heard that power belongs to God, so

    when God blesses you, you can live long. The Lord says there is someone here tonight;He said I will add more grease to your elbow . Psalm 91v16 God said with long life willI satisfy him, when you are blessed you live long. When you are blessed He can satisfy

    you with strength, He said they that wait upon thee shall renew their strength.

    When you are blessed, he can satisfy you with wisdom, Daniel 2 v 20 -21. When youare blessed, He can satisfy you with Joy, Psalm 16 v 11 says in His presence there is

    the fullness of joy. When you are blessed He can satisfy you with Promotion. Psalm 75

    v 6 - 7 Promotions comes from the Lord. When you are blessed, He can satisfy you

    with victory without a fight, Deuteronomy 28 v 7.

    You know many at times when you are blessed, It is after when the battle is over that

    you will know that some people were even fighting against you because God will fight

    for you. I remembered our first convention on this camp ground; I was excited, we are

    holding convention on camp ground I didnt know anything was happening but later

    on, I was to learn that there were four women, witches who held a meeting and

    decided that they will go and take over the camp before we arrived.

    How did we discover? We didnt know anything, we just came, had a wonderful timeand left, but within a week of the convention one of them came saying we were fourthat came; we wanted to take over the convention. Of the four, one went mad, one

    died, one developed a hunch back, I cant remember what happed to the forth one. And

    I didnt know anything!

    I am prophesying for someone w hen the enemy come against you, they will only cometo say we tried and we failed.

    When you are blessed; it gives you wealth without sorrow because the Bible says the

    blessings of the Lord, it maketh rich and added no sorrows. When you are blessed,

    then your anointing can overflow; like in Psalm 23 v 5, thou anointed my head with

    oil, my cup runeth over. Now to me, one of the greatest wonders of divine blessing is

    that no man can tamper with Gods blessings upon your life. They may criticize you,

    they may envy you, and I think I heard one of the men who spoke before me this

    evening saying it is better to be envied than to be pitted. I think that is a beautiful

    one, I said I will write it down. Every one of you here tonight, very soon the world willenvy you.They can talk about you, I have told you before, people will talk about you. If you are a

    failure they will talk about you; they will say everyday you are carrying the Bible up

    and down, everyday you are calling the name of Jesus, where is the result? If God

    prospers you mightily, they will talk about you; is he the only one serving God! Now

    which of the two, do you preferred? The second or the first? It is better to be envied

    than to be pitied. From tonight henceforth you will never be pited again.Numbers 23 v 20 a prophet said I receive the commandment from God to bless. He has

    blessed and I cannot reverse it. When God blesses you; no witch, no wizard, noherbalist, nobody can reverse the blessing. Even the pastor who pronounces a blessing

    upon you cannot say I am taking it back. So somebody is already blessed here tonight!In Genesis 27 v 33 when Isaac discovered that he has blessed Jacob by mistake, he

    said to Esau, Esau, its a pity your brother came with subtlety and has stolen your

    blessing. He said but let me tell you my son, I have blessed him and he shall be

    blessed. Tell the fellow next to you, I am already blessed and there is nothing you can

    do about it. Recently, somebody said please sir I want to testify and they thought it

    will be for two minute and she took the microphone and testified for one hour, and thetestimony were so big nobody could stop her.

    The Lord said recently somebody testified for one hour, you will testify for two. Thankyou father, the Lord said there is someone here tonight, He said not only will I make

    you great, I will establish your greatness forever. The Lord said there is someone he retonight; He said very soon, it will be said of you; his wealth can never be dim inished.

    I want to take one example and then I will round up, because tonight, I want you to

    really pray, this is a night when you really need to pray to God and He is going toanswer you and pour His blessing on you. Consider Joseph as a classical example of

    all I have been saying. In Genesis 37 v 5-11 in his dream, second dream; he saw the

    heavens already assisting him, he said I saw the sun, I saw the moon, I saw the

    eleven stars and they were all bowing down to me. On earth his father loved him

    specially, Genesis 37 v 3 the Bible says his father loved him more than the other

    children and gave him a coat of many colors, even though he was still very young, help

    was already coming.

    In Genesis 37 v 18-36 even his brothers helped; they saw him coming and they said

    here comes the dreamer, lets kill him and see what will become of his dreams, then

    somebody said dont let us kill him, lets throw him into a well. And then aft er

    sometime they said lets sell him into slavery; they didnt know they were helping him.

    They didnt know it was in Egypt that his destiny was going to be fulfilled. The

    brothers helped him. Like somebody pointed out to me not too long ago; even the well

    helped him; the well was conveniently dry so that he wont drown in a pull of water.

    Men helped him! When he got to Egypt, Potiphar helped him Genesis 39 v 1-6 very,

    very soon, the slave boy became the head of the house of Potiphar and whether you

    believe it or not even the wife of Potiphar helped him. Genesis 39 v 7-20

  • 7/29/2019 The Wonders of Divine Blessings 5th July

    12/16

    12 | P a g e

    It was because of the wife of Potiphar that Joseph got into the prison. It was in the

    prison that he met the butler, if the wife of Potiphar had not lied against him; he

    would never have gotten to prison, if he didnt get to prison the butler would not have

    met him, when Pharaoh had his dream, nobody would have introduce him to Pharaoh.

    And then the famine helped him; because it was the famine that finally brought his

    family to Egypt for his brothers to come and bow before him.

    I want to prophesy to you today, people you know and people you dont know w ill beused of God to bless you, those who like you, those who hate you, those who appreciate

    you and those who criticize you, God will use all of them to help you.But there is something I need to point out to you; Divine blessings as wonderful as

    they are, are usually conditional. Its like somebody said nothing good goes for

    nothing. Genesis 27 v 1-4 Isaac said to Esau; my boy, he sa id am here daddy, do you

    want my blessings? He said then take your bow and arrow go and look for an animalin the bush, kill the animal, bring it back home and make me that kind of meal that I

    love to enjoy then I can release my blessing upon you. Nothing goes for nothing!

    I know some of you will say but you have been blessing us already tonight, oh yes, I

    have been doing it on credit, knowing that sooner or later you are going to pay for it. I

    have always told you that when your brother says God bless you, your brother is

    merely greeting you. For blessings to come, It has to come from somebody who have

    spiritual authority over you. Your husband can say to you, my wife, God bless you. Am

    sure some wives will say that is not likely to happen because they know the kind ofhusband they have. If your husband has never said God bless you, to you. Maybe you

    need to check yourself and change your ways. If you give him what he likes, he will

    pronounce a blessing. And when your husband says God bless you, you can be

    guarantee God will answer.

    Unfortunately the wife hasnt gotten that authority over the husband, because the

    husband is the head of the wife. Your father can bless you and the blessing will be

    sanction by God your mother can bless you and the blessing will be sanctioned by God.

    I have told you, I am where I am today by the grace of God and the prayer of my

    mother. Your pastor can bless you, he has the spiritual authority to do so, and of

    course the General Overseer can bless you, he has the spiritual authority to do so.

    That is why you are blessed in Jesus name.But blessings are conditional, blessings are earned. God said bring all the tithes into

    my house and I will replace every curse in your life with a blessing, he said give me

    your first fruit and I will bless you so much you wont be able to contain it. Blessings

    are conditional. Somebody came to me and said I want a double portion of your spirit,

    I said is that so?

    How do think you are going to get it?

    You have never ministered to me. Read your Bible; Elisha ministered unto Elijah, the

    Bible says he was pouring water on his hand. That is why when the man was about to

    leave, he said now my boy what blessing do you want me to drop? And I have told you

    the story before, I was at Heathrow long ago when we travel economy and they weigh

    your bag; if it is over weighed they charge you.

    I didnt have money to pay any excess luggage so I carried two carry -on. In those days

    they never weigh those ones. And my load are always heavy because I always have

    plenty of books, books can weigh, so I will load my carry-on with books. So I was

    carrying two carry-ons, heavy things; each one heavier than the luggage I checked in.

    And I saw two of my boys, and the first one said good morning daddy, I said good

    morning. The second one ran to me and said good morning daddy, let me help you

    carry your bags. He took the bags and I say God bless you. The first one turned to me

    and say daddy, you didnt say God bless me too?

    I said what for? You said good morning, I said good morning. You saw me carrying two

    bags you didnt offer to help me with one. And now you want a blessing? The devil is a

    liar! How many of you want to be blessed by God? Are you really sure, will you be

    willing to pay the price? May you be bless in Jesus name. Let me conclude with this, I

    told you that when God blesses you nobody can tamper with the blessing. No human

    being can tamper with the blessing. no demon, no witch, no wizard, if God says you

    are blessed, you are blessed. If they dont like it that is their own headache.

    And in the Name that is above every other names, all those who are criticizing younow will one day celebrate you.

    The only one who can reverse a divine blessing is God Himself. 1samuel 2v 30 God

    said to Eli, I said indeed that you and your fathers house will stand before me forever,

    but how I say be it far from it, He said because those who honor, I will honor and

    those who despise me, I will lightly esteem. Listen to me very well, this might be a

    little of the convention.You know we go about shouting forever Oh Lord, thy word is

    settled in heaven, it is settled. The word of God is settled, unless God decides to

    change it. Forever oh Lord they word is settled! That is true, but our God is in the

    heavens He does as He pleases, He retains His Sovereignty. He said I said indeed,

    Eli, you and your fathers house you will be a family of priest, He said but now I say

    your children will be begging for food in the church house. He says I change my mind.

    Look when Hezekiah was sick, God sent Isaiah, go and tell him, put your house in

    order you are going to die. And he got to the king, oh King, thus say the Lord, you are

    a dead man. The king said, Sir is there anything I can do? No, am a messenger he has

    spoken, forever oh Lord thy word is settle. Hezekiah said that is alright, I know what

    to do. He says Almighty God you better pay attention; I have been serving you whole

    heartedly and if I die now, the numbers of those who are praising you on earth will be

    less by one, you better leave me here because you have plenty of angels over there

    praising You. God said that is true, He told Isaiah I have changed my mind, go back

    and tell him, you are not dying anymore.

    Who told you God cant change His MIND? Am talking to bone crackers now. If God

    decides to bless you and you mess up, He can change a blessing to a curse. Dont forgetam telling you; am talking about God am not talking about father Christmas, am not

    talking about a sugar daddy, am talking about the Almighty God, the unchangeable

    changer. There are many of you here, God has sent to you again and again, words of

    Prophecy that you know, that you know, that you know this is directly from God to

    me. Am sure many of you at times you even tremble when you see how God accurately

    pinpointed you.

    The Lord still ask me to tell someone, He said there is a part of your body gotdamaged recently God says I should tell you, He will replace it. Even in judgment Heremembers mercy, the Lord says the enemy will soon replace you in the pit where

    they put you.Some prophecies will come, you know God is speaking to you, at time you wonder how

    did the G.O knows. NO! The G.O didnt know, God told Him. God knows everything!

    You know this prophesy are yours, you grabbed and yet you wait and nothing seems

    to be happening, check yourself, because He says whosoever honors me, I will honor

    and those who despise me , I will lightly esteem. If you claim to belong to belong to

    God and you are leaving in sin and you expect his promises to be fulfilled; who isdeceiving who?

    He is holy God, He is not a magician, that is why tonight, because we are going to

    spend one solid hour in prayer, because God is going to answer prayer tonight, this

    month is a turning point for many people. Before we pray, if you want to give your life

    to Jesus you come and give your life. I am not going to beg you, but am talking

    specially to those of you who claim you are a child of God and you are behaving like a

    child of the devil. If you want His blessing, you better return to Him tonight and call

    on Him for restoration. You want His blessing to remain with you and you dont want

    it to turn to a curse. Say Lord, yes I was born again once, but have backslid, I want to

    come back to you.

    So those who want to be born again and those who want to be restored come quickly

    now.. As you come, ask Him to save your soul, ask Him to forgive you all your sins,

    ask Him to give you a brand new beginning. Those of you who want restoration, I

    backslide, Lord am back to you, please Lord have mercy on me. Restore me fully.The rest of us, shall we please stretch our hands towards these people and pray for

    them, that the Almighty God will have mercy on them, that He will forgive them their

    sin today and give them a brand new beginning. And that all backsliders who are
