RCCG Sunday School STUDENT Manual Lesson 50 || Eternal Reward

RCCG Sunday School STUDENT Manual 19th August 2018, Lesson 50

Sunday School Student Manual 19th August 2018 - Eternal Reward

MEMORY VERSE: “And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.” – Matthew 19:29

BIBLE PASSAGE: 1 Corinthians 9:16-27 

16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.

18 What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.

19 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;

21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.

22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.

23 And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.

24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

INTRODUCTION:
The scriptures say do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain. It also says the labourer is worthy of his reward. So, God has a reward for all that make it to the kingdom.

Pastor E A Adeboye Sermon Excerpts - Day 6 - Evening Session || The meal of Kings

Holy Communion Service
Day 6-Evening Session
Ministering: Pastor E A Adeboye

Bless His holy name. Give  Him glory for the mighty things He has done. Worship the King of kings.
We give You glory, we give You honor
We give you everything we are
Lifting our hearts and hands before You
As at 5:00pm today the number of babies is 99: 49 boys and 50 girls.
We are now in 197 countries around the world. We will be celebrating our Godly Heroes who made this possible. we will also be having a wall of honor for them.
Topic: The meal of Kings
Text: Exodus 12:29-32
All those who say you will not have dominion will get a visitor tonight; and before the sun rises everyone who has been holding you down will be begging you to go in Jesus name.
Imagine that you are seated at the dining table, and the one at the other end of the table is Jesus Christ Revelation 1:5-6. The meal on the table is prepared by God Himself, not just any catering service Psalms.23:5, If you are truly in Christ, he has made you a King and a priest 1 Peter 2:9
Revelations 19:14-16 Jesus is the King of kings. He is sitting at the head of the table, He is surrounded by Kings only. The Meal is the most expensive meal you can ever come across.
This meal is provided and prepared by God. It isn't an ordinary meal, each time we gather for this meal, Jesus is always present. Not just anybody is allowed on the table of Kings. The Holy Communion is not an ordinary meal because Jesus is present at the head of the table. The holy Communion is not just an ordinary meal, if anyone eats the meal unworthily, he could fall sick or die; That's why the Holy Communion is very dangerous: if the wrong fellow eats it, such person is asking for serious trouble. But if Children of God eat such meal, it has the power to heal, set free and change slaves to people of dominion. if you are a true child of God, worthy to note is that the meal is to be taken in the night, that's why it's called The Lord's Supper, the meal can bring you healing, deliverance and surely dominion, It has the power to make your captors beg to let you go. Whenever God wants to starts a new day, He starts in the evening. It is a night meal because weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning Psalms 30:5, whenever God wants to start a new day He starts in the evening before the morning When you want to take the holy communion observe every details. I have good news for someone tonight: As you dine with the King of kings, you night of captivity, yoke and bondage will change to the morning of dominion.
When you eat the bread tonight pray: Every enemy of your comprehensive dominion must receive a visit tonight.The Lord Jesus the night he was betrayed took bread, gave thanks, broke and said this is my body, eat in remembrance of me. In the name of the father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Please eat your bread now. When you take the wine, you'll say
Father, please make my Dominion be a blessing to my generation and the ones to come.
Make my Dominion a blessing to my nation that there will be peace, and prosperity.

Pastor E A Adeboye Sermon Excerpts - Holy Ghost Service || Dominion

Day 5-Evening Session || August Holy Ghost Service 
Ministering: Pastor E A Adeboye 
Topic: Comprehensive Dominion 
Text: Genesis 1:26-28
Pastor E. A. Adeboye eulogizing the Almighty God.
Lift your hands to the Most High God and begin to bless His Name, worship and praise Him. He is worthy to be praised and magnified.
What a mighty God we serve, Angels bow before Him, Heaven and earth adore Him, what a mighty God we serve, What a mighty God we serve.
Halleluyah for the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth....hallelujah praise the Lord.‏ 
The Lord said there is someone here tonight: this month I will wipe your tears.
Daddy said there is someone here tonight: your own day has come.
Daddy said there is someone here tonight, no matter what the enemy may try, you will never touch the ground.‏
Welcome each other to dominion
As at 4 pm this evening, the number of children born is 81. 39 boys and 42 girls.
Pastor E A Adeboye PRAYING FOR THOSE BORN IN THE MONTH OF AUGUST
The theme for next month's HGS is "Silencing Mockers". It's specifically for people trusting God for fruitfulness. When you consider all these homes, where they used to weep every month and now there is joy. Join me and shout Hallelujah! Stretch your hands towards these ladies and pray for them. We present these children to You God Almighty, bless them, protect them, keep sickness and death far from them. If you know your children will be greater than you, let me hear you shout hallelujah. The crowd in the old arena gives us reason to give God thanks. The new auditorium is getting full too, we need new dormitories desperately because we'll be double next year by God's special grace. we need new dormitories desperately. We want to appeal to you in your own little way in helping us build new dormitories. Between now and the end of the year, kindly contribute something.‏ If you're sending a cheque, write it to The Redeemed Christian Church of God, write 'Dormitory' at the back. This is a convention of action because Dominion is an active word.‏ Dominion is a military and powerful word. We are going to pray tonight.‏
The Theme of Next Year's Convention is "And God Said..."
The theme for this year's congress is "Glory Ahead." God created you to have dominion, so if you desire dominion, you are desiring something that is the will of God. Father, Give me Dominion. Genesis 27:30-40 In the name of Jesus, all of you who call me 'Daddy', you shall be blessed! When you read Gen 27:30-40 something interesting happened. Isaac wanted to bless Esau, but Jacob got it by tricks. Isaac discovered he had blessed the wrong fellow, but Esau insisted on being blessed. It's either you have dominion or you are under the yoke. There is no middle ground. You are either head or tail; above or beneath. Pursue Dominion. Mark 1:40-44 when a leper was cleansed, he couldn't keep his mouth shut. Only those who have been sick will value sound health. Mark 16:17-18 talks about traits of Christians. According to In Act 5:14-16 when your shadow begins to heal the sick then you have total dominion. It is better to heal the sick. God can use you at that level. He has done it before. God has done it before through me. he asked me to dance round those with a chronic backache who couldn't bend. I decree in the Name that is above every other name, from now, anyone you touch by accident will receive healing. Let's talk about dominion financially. It is good to be rich don't be deceived. It is good to be rich. Poverty is not good; it's a destroyer.
I pray for all of you my children you will not die as tenant In Jesus Name
As in the case of Isaac in Gen. 26:12-14, it is better to be wealthy. Genesis 24:34-35, Genesis 26:12-14. Don't let anyone deceive you that poverty is good. Abraham our father was richly greatly blessed. But it is better to be wealthy like Isaac.
It is better than being wealthy to Prosper. Solomon prospered that he was able to offer a thousand cows to God as an offering. A time is coming, you will be so wealthy, people will say "Are you the only one serving God?". 2 Chronicles 7:5 As my God lives, one of you, even next year, will pay for the whole Convention. I don't want to tell you how many cows have been slaughtered during this convention. But as God lives, one of you will pay for the Convention expenses next year. When can you say you have dominion financially, when you can do anything you want to do without help from another. Prayer Almighty God, you are the King of Glory. Glory is the opposite of shame. Anything representing shame for #Nigeria, destroy it in Jesus Name. Show us Your Glory and eradicate shame in our land in Jesus Name Psalm 24:7-10.
An aunt of mine in the 1960s sent 7 rams, 7 he goats, 100 yams, bags of salt, 7 turkeys and sent to the King who helped her without her request. God can do much more for you
Prophecy: The Lord said there's someone here tonight, the pain you feel is as if someone is crushing your bone, that pain is gone forever.
‏The one who is planning to choke you in your sleep has been dealt with.
‏Prophecy: For someone here tonight, the embargo the enemy has placed on your family has been removed.
God says, before the end of this year, I will open a new door for you, it will be so big that you won't need anyone's help again.
It's much better to speak and demons get out; but you have spiritual dominion when you get to the level that your handkerchief can cast out demons. Acts 19:11-12
Prophecy: In your husband family, men don't live long. I assure you, your sons will live long.
Prophecy: Those trying to use you as a scapegoat will fall into their trap.
2 Kings 5:1 depicts that Naman was blessed with everything but had a "but" in his life.
2 Kings 4:8-17, The Shunamite woman had dominion in other areas but she was barren.
I pray for you: everything you need to do whatever you want to do, receive that dominion Now!
We've been given great dominion by the blood of Jesus I say to someone tonight: Every curse in your family is canceled. I used to be like Peter in Acts 3:1-8, anointed but financially broke.
I pray for you, everything you need to have all round dominion, receive now.
He had financial #dominion, spiritual #dominion and even physical #dominion.
I pray for my children, pastors and non-pastors, you'll have #dominion in all areas.
I pray for all my pastors, we will not only have dominion spiritually, we will have dominion financially in Jesus name
‏2 Kings 4:13-14 Elisha was sick just once at age 120. Even after he died, his bones rose the dead. Till you see Jesus in glory, you will never be sick again in Jesus name. All it will take you to have comprehensive dominion is to surrender completely to the One who controls dominion. (James 4:7) If you have God behind you, you will have dominion even over the Devil.
‏A King gave his life to Jesus and then canceled masquerade worship in his town. The Priest got challenged and dared the King. The priest died a few days before the festival.
Prophecy: You need just one more breakthrough so that your joy may be full, you'll get it tonight.
Father, I’m tired of suffering I want Dominion in every sphere of my life.
‏For 20 minutes or so, I want you to talk to God. Say "Father, I want to have #Dominion in every area of my life." The Almighty one, the Supreme one will give you dominion over poverty, demons, failure, over defeat, over fruitless efforts, over fear: God will give you dominion and the dominion will begin now. Every mountain blocking your way shall be moved into the sea. God will turn your enemies to your footstool. It shall be so in Jesus name. Amen.
Before the sun rises tomorrow, you shall already have dominion
We are serving the God of miracles
I know, Yes I know
We are serving the God of miracles
I know, Yes I know.
There is someone here tonight, before the end of the year, you will have three victories without a fight.

Pastor E A Adeboye Sermon Excerpts - Day 4 - Evening Session || Dominion

Day 4-Evening Session - Deliverance Service

Ministering: Pastor E A Adeboye

Text: Mark 16:17-18, Philippians 2:5-11

Topic: Name above all names

The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
Jehovah the Man of war
His mercies endureth forever and ever
O praise His Holy name.

Father, Arise, Fight For Your children and give us dominion tonight in Jesus name. Amen.

The number of babies born during this convention stands at 65, among them a set of twins. 33 boys and 32 girls.

Prayer:

Everything that is not of God will bow out of your life to night in the mighty name of Jesus.

There are only two types of people:

The dominant and the dominated.

It's either you have dominion or you are subdued.

There are two types of verbs: Active and Passive.

"Dominion" is the noun of the word "Dominate", and Dominate is a very active word. It means "Force down, and keep down by force"

The word Dominion is the noun of the word Dominate which is a very active word that means force down and keep down by force, a convention with the theme Dominion is not a convention of Passivity, its not a convention you come just to learn and do nothing, it's a convention of Action.

Prayer:
I decree In the name that is above every other name everything that has be holding you down will be destroyed In Jesus Name.

Names are very important. This is why your name is the first thing to be asked of you when you meet a person for the first time. The name of where you live goes a long way to define you too.

Moses' name means "Pull out from the water" and for the rest of his life, Water played a major role.

I pray today that if your name is the one standing against your destiny, you will get a change of name tonight in that mighty name of Jesus.

The names of Jesus are very important

1. The Way. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 1 Corinthians 10:13 Whenever we get into trouble, God says He will make a WAY of escape for us.

2. The Light. John 9:5, John 1:1-5 His light fights and subdues every darkness in us.

3. The Resurrection & Life. John 11:25-26 God dominates death.

4. The Lord. Psalm 24:7-10
He is the Lord of Host in Heaven, on Earth & underneath the Earth. He controls them all.

I have seen Him in action controlling demons on my behalf.

In the lives of anybody still struggling with darkness, God will shine His light in Jesus name.

Every host that He has to mobilise to give you dominion, He will do so tonight in Jesus name.

5. The Man of War. Exodus 15:3 Jesus is not just the lamb of God, he is the Lion. The problem with Christians is that we don't use what we have. We have the name of Jesus. we have Dominion by association.

Anything Jesus can do, because you are associated with Him and have the permission to use his name you can do also 1 samuel 17.
David knew His secret weapon was more authentic than anyone and anything.

Mark 16:17-18 Jesus said signs shall follow them that believe in His name.

The first thing you will do with the Name of Jesus is to cast out demons.
Tonight, everything in your life that you don't want, you are going to cast it out.

Whatever you allow on earth will be allowed in heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be forbade in heaven. Matthew 18:18-20

In the Name that is above every other name Every mountain in your life would move tonight
Every drum of shame beaten against you must break tonight In Jesus Name

There are 3 areas you should do warfare for yourself.

1. Goliath. Stands for somebody who says you will never have dominion
When Elisha connected with the dominion by association, the double portion of Elijah`s anointing came on him and he was able to do the impossible 2 Kings 2:23-24. Elisha simply said: Lord, silence my mockers, and because he had dominion, action followed.

Silence My Mockers is the Theme for next Month Holy Ghost Service

2. We must deal with everything that has been mocking God in our lives.

3. Evil Interjectors. Acts 13:6-12 These are those who choose to turn themselves to mountains so as to disrupt helpers from helping you.

I pray that during this convention, the Spirit of God operating in my life will come in a double portion upon somebody.
Alter: Surrender your life to Jesus, only Him can deliver you
Saviour, let Your blood wash their sins away.

Don't let them ever go back to the devil in Jesus' name.

Please answer them by fire whenever they call on you in Jesus’ name

PP 1: Father every Goliath in my way, let them die tonight in the name Jesus Christ

PP 2: Father, everything in my life that is still saying "Where is my God?", let it vanish tonight.

PP 3: Father! Every force that will hinder my progress, let them be destroyed tonight

PP 4: Father, in the body of Jesus Christ, no more cancer

PP 5: Personal petition: Mention the name of Jesus against anything you don't want in your life now!

Father Blessings for tonight.

Thank You Father for Your children, on behalf of us all, please accept our thanksgiving.

I join my faith with Your children and I decree that every of their Goliath must die in Jesus' name.
Everything left in their lives, homes and offices that is mocking them dies tonight in Jesus' name.

Any person, force or group of persons standing between them and their Dominion, let them die tonight in Jesus' name.

In total agreement Father, please take cancer away.
Before the sun rises, turn all their requests to testimonies in Jesus' name

Father, please go with them in Jesus' name. I want you to shout the name of Jesus Seven times.

The programme will continue at the old Auditorium tomorrow.

It is time to listen to some of our guest speakers while they say a few words.

Text Daniel 6:1-3

Topic: The Spirit of Excellence

Help me prophesy to your neighbor, from today onwards, you will know excellence.

Genesis 1:1-4 There is a link between Excellence and
Gen 1:31
There is good, there is better.

There is something superior to better and that's best.

Daniel 6:1-3 There were 120 princes that the King set over his state. They were the good boys.

He, however, had 3 presidents to oversee the 120, these were the better guys. Daniel was first amongst the three, he was the best.

I pray to the One who sent me, that very soon it will said of my children, an excellent Spirit is in this fellow.

Very soon, it would be said of you that, an excellent spirit dwells in you

In comparison, we have
The Good. Gen 1:1-4
The Better. Gen 1:31
The Best. Gen 2:18
The Excellent. Dan 6:1-3

When we talk about excellence, there are degrees of excellence.

One of the ways you know the secret of an excellent person is that it keeps getting better.

The spirit of excellence will come upon you tonight in Jesus name.

Gen. 37:5-11
An example of an excellent person is Joseph. He kept growing from excellence to excellence, even when he was in prison.

In Genesis 39, Joseph was a Dominant Slave, but in Genesis 41:1-44, Joseph was prime Minister of Egypt: He was Dominant.

Elisha became dominant as a result of the double portion of the spirit he got. 2 Kings 2:9-15, I pray for you tonight, the Almighty God will lay His hands on you.

Acts 9:10-22 After Paul's conversion, God sent a disciple to lay hands on him.

How will you know you have the Spirit of excellence?

1. People who have the Spirit of excellence are never satisfied with where they are; they always want to go higher; They always want more!

Philippians 3:4-14
When we have an auditorium the size of Ibadan, then, we will be beginning.

When you have the Spirit of excellence, you will never standstill 2 Kings 4:8-17

Elisha was a blessing to a widow, 2 Kings 4:5-7, 2 Kings 4:8-17, He was a blessing to a great woman. He didn't stop there, he went back to the mountain so as to be equipped enough to raise the dead son of the great woman.. 2 Kings 7, 2 Kings 13:14-21, Before Elisha died, he was already determining the future of his nation.

He wasn't a local government prophet.

Joshua 14:6-14 When Caleb met Joshua he asked for mountains. He didn't ask for ordinary ones, he asked for the mountains and the giants in them. Don't be satisfied with being average.

You can be dominant; You can be excellent Let your vision be so high that it will take only God for it to come to pass.

It is because your vision is so low that is why you can go to the house of God and joke. Forgive me, but my love for you has overwhelmed me that I want you all to be greater than me, Why must you (Child of God) insult God with a request like this Oh God, when I come next year let me come with a THIRD HAND CAR.

Has God stopped performing miracles?

Why must I come and be begging God for healing, When I was younger, my nickname was the tiger But now that tiger is baptized with the Holy Spirit, I used to cry whenever I came second in school. When I came to Jesus, I told God that I didn't want to be an ordinary Christian. I told God one particular night that if He wasn't going to give me power, He should take my life. God responded that night and caused an earthquake that was felt many neighbouring towns.

Excellent for me isn't by title, it is by power! For how long are you going to be average? For how long are you going to be ordinary? The Almighty expects you to be so hot, that any witch that comes near you will be roasted!

For the next 30 minutes, we are going to pray, and this ground will shake tonight in Jesus' name.
PP: Father, I don't want be ordinary I want to be an excellent Christian. Release Your power upon me.

For the next 30 minutes, we are going to pray, and this ground will shake tonight in Jesus' name.

Receive the Spirit of Excellence. You will never be average again.

Receive the power to exercise dominion, you will be greater than your current status. God will promote and take you to greater heights, you will excel in Jesus Name.

Pastor E A Adeboye Sermon Excerpts - Day 2 - Evening Session || Dominion

Welcome Service ||Day 2 - Evening Session|| Ministering: Pastor E A Adeboye Bless the Lord. Give Him glory for the mighty things He has done. Worship the King of kings

Prayer: Father, if you are giving dominion to two people only during this Convention, let me be one of them. We give You all the glory We give You honour We give You all the glory We give You honour I have it in authority from God that this is one Convention you will not forget. The number of babies is 37: 20 boys and 17 girls Topic: The new creature Text: 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. I'm believing God for you tonight that everything will become new in your life. New is the opposite of old, opposite of 'used to be. Creature is something made from scratch, not refurbished, repainted or copied John 3:1-8 Jesus said, "you must be born again." A new creature in Christ has no history, 2 Corinthians 7:2. When the saul of Tarsus met the Lord on the road to Damascus, it wasn't the same man that fell from the horse that got up. A brand new man indeed. When a lady goes into the church to get married and says the "I do," she isn't the same 'miss' that went in. She is now a married woman. Should she divorce the man, she won't be called a lady anymore but a divorcee. The same goes with the man. The moment you go to Jesus, you are now a new creature. Let the new creature shout hallelujah. New here implies there was an old. Romans 6:16 states that you are the servant of the One you yield to. Your nature used to be sin, that made you a sinner because you used to sin. Sickness is an agent of death. When you are under the Dominion of sin, you are under the Dominion of sickness, Mark 2:1-12, Psalm 107:17-18 When under the dominion of sin, you are subject to hardship, subject to the domination of forces of darkness. John 8:32 - And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free. 1 John 3:8 Proverbs 13:15, A sinner is subject to many sorrows Psalms 32:10, Psalms 16:4. When you are under the dominion of sin, you are subject to constant divine anger. Psalms 7:11 When you are under the dominion of sin, you are subject to fear of all kinds, particularly of an uncertain future Isaiah 3:11 What makes being a new creature so wonderful is that you have dominion over sin, Romans 6:6-14. Because you are new creature,everything changes for the best for you. Now, you can no longer be dominated by the devil. James 4:7. You can even become a terror to the devil. Matthew 11:28-30, Hardship will no longer have dominion over you. The moment you become a new creature, the rest of your life will be in joy, Psalms 32:11. Joy isn't the same as happiness. It is a spring that flows irrespective of what's going on around you. It's from God. Instead of divine anger, you begin to enjoy divine love which is very much available. The availability of this love births the realisation of Dominion Romans 8: 35-37 Your Dominion as a new creature is recognized in Heaven the moment you say I do to Jesus Christ John 1:11-12, As soon as you surrender your life to Christ, you become partakers of the divine nature 2 Peter 1:4, I can boldly say I am a god, I am the true son of the Almighty God. “The child of an elephant is an elephant. The child of a dog is a dog. The child of God is a god” You shouldn't be afraid to say that too. Let me assure you, there are no bastards in God's family. Revelations 5:10 The moment you give your life to Jesus, you become a king! Your Father is the King of kings. Your dominion is not just recognised in heaven, it is also recognised in hell. The devil knows when you are genuinely born again or not, Some seven sons of Sceva thought they could use the name of Jesus as Paul did. They got the beating of their lives because their real identities were known. Does the devil know you as a Son of God? Acts 19:11-17. You are not only recognized, but angels become your servants. Even on earth, you are to reign on earth Hebrews 1:1- What to do to enjoy permanently Dominion? 3 things….John 15:16 1. Be radical about preaching the gospel of Jesus. May the Almighty make you an incurable soul winner in Jesus' name. 2. Go after backsliders. Every time you lose a member, you diminish your Dominion. There is power in number. 3. Faith Hebrews 11:6, use your faith to move your mountains. Mark 11:23. It is not your duty to heal the sick, just lay hands, believe and go. You are too small to uproot mountains, just believe, and trust God to move the mountains! Wisdom is correct application of knowledge. A new creature is not a reformed or refurbished life, it is not a rebuilt life, it is a new life from the scratch. Only God can make this possible through Jesus. If you are yet to surrender your life to Jesus, this is your opportunity. Surrender to Jesus Christ and become a new creature Prayer Point 1: Father I command every mountain blocking my way to Dominion to be moved right now Prayer Point 2: Father: I agree with my neighbor every obstruction to his or her dominion, move now. Final Blessings for tonight, Father, these are Your children, and in your family, there is no failure and defeat. Please, don't let them fail again. Let there be no more defeats in their lives. Before the sun rises, let them enjoy, I agree with you tonight, every obstacle to your joy and dominion are crushed tonight, make us incurable soul winners, help us to restore backsliders. Visit us in our sleep tonight in the name of Jesus. Tomorrow will be greater than today in Jesus' name. Let me hear you shout a big dominant Halleluyah!

RCCG 66 Annual Convention - The Secret Of Dominion || #Dominion

Obedience To Covenant, The Secret Of Dominion

God had a simple covenant with Abraham with massive blessings attached to it.’Walk before me and be thou perfect, circumcise every male child’.In return, God promised to multiply his family exceedingly, He gave them a new name, made him a father of nations, gave him and his seed vast landed properties and most importantly, God gave Abraham and his generations dominion.

God established a covenant with Josiah Akindayomi in 1952, God also changed the name of the Church from ‘Egbe Ogo Oluwa’ to the Redeemed Christian Church of God. In other words, God gave the Church a new name and promised to multiply the members and take the Church to all nations of the earth. God told Akindayomi who his successor should be and he obeyed. God must have said, “It must be a Bible-believing Church, Jesus must be honoured and you must be holy”. Akindayomi and his successor,Adeboye, obeyed the covenant and this has been the secret of the dominion that RCCG has all over the world today. There is so much similarity between the two covenants above.
Prior to the covenant, Rev Josiah Akindayomi (born in 1908 to an idol worshipping family)had sought God in different places- CMS Church, Cherubim and Seraphim Church before the Spirit of God led him out of the white garment Church to establish a bible fellowship with seven other members at 9A, Willoughby Street, Ebute Metta. At a point, God visited Akindayomi and gave him a new name, RCCG which the Church still bears till today.
Reverend Akindayomi had a revelation of his successor and how God would give the Church dominion globally through him. The day of manifestation for RCCG was that Sunday in 1973, when a young scholar, Enoch Adejare Adeboye walked into the Headquarters of RCCG at Ebute Metta for spiritual solution to a personal problem. Pastor Adeboye never anticipated he was walking into a total life changing and career turning point.
Pastor Adeboye, like his predecessor and mentor is passionate about holiness, total obedience to God and respect of the covenant to the letter. He is humble and loves God with his whole heart. The 39 parishes he took over in 1981 has flourished and blossomed to the extent that RCCG has branches in about 198 nations of the world today.
The vehicles God used to drive fruitfulness and multiplication- the ladders to dominion are;

1.  Aggressive evangelism;
2. Establishment of model parishes
3. CRFI
4. Foreign missions
5. Holy Ghost Service
6. Festival of Life in major nations of the world and
7. Holy Ghost Congress

However, music has become a strong vehicle over the years. Adeboye established a dynamic and flourishing mass choir supported by the minstrel, Pastor Kunle Ajayi. Daddy Adeboye composed special songs and hymns that are reflections of his deep Christian walk with God. The music compels members and non-members to stay all-night at Holy Ghost Services.
The Holy Ghost Service which started in 1985, as a birthday gift from God to Adeboye has become a Shiloh – a place of answered prayers- and a platform for miracles. Adeboye established the first model parish in Ikeja in 1988, the second in Victoria Island in 1989, and the third in Apapa in 1991. These first three model parishes brought not only elites and the very educated, they have equally become region that have at least 12 provinces each. They also were given new names – First Born, Blessed and Excel (Apapa) families.
The Christ the Redeemer Friends International (CRFl) is an evangelical fellowship which Adeboye inaugurated in January 1990 with graduates and products of other tertiary institutions as operators. They also reproduced their types and multiplied. The model parishes were the foundation on which Pastor Adeboye launched foreign missions, initially to the U.K and U.S.A while Mummy Folu Adeboye supported with Africa Mission Ministries.
Today, RCCG is in 198 nations of the world, some of which are, Malta, South Korea, Thailand, United Arab Emirates and many more.
In many nations, as a result of obedience and relentless prayer, RCCG have dominion and work in partnership with government of these nation to brings welfare, security and multiplication were slow in coming, Adeboye reportedly told God to send down the rain or take him home. He loves praying all night long and the member have imbibed the culture of praying and fasting. They have also surrendered their lives to fasting perpetually.
The result is that RCCG is at the vanguard of the end-time crusade and Adeboye is referred to as Daddy by many presidents. A father of nation God has made him RCCG has continually become an amazement to many people in diverse nations.
The similarities of the reward of obedience to Abraham, Akindayomi and Adeboye (father of nations, a new name and dominion respectively) confirm that God Changeth not.
To God alone be the glory!

RCCG 66 Annual Convention - Testimonies From Past Convention || #Dominion

Testimonies From Past Convention

GOD EASES DELIVERIES THROUGH ANOINTED HANDKERCHIEFS
Six pregnant women who were once delivered of th&ir babies through cesarean section came to Omu Aran Maternity centre for delivery. Though their cases were tough, the anointed handkerchiefs prayed on by our father in the Lord came in handy for easy delivery by the women. At each difficult stage, I waved the hand­ kerchief and God destroyed each of the mountains standing between the women and their deliveries. God was glorified as the women had their babies through natural birth. - A/P (Mrs.) Deborah Adesola

GOD REVIVES PATIENT IN COMA THROUGH ANOINTED HANDKER­ CHIEFS
On December 18th, 2017, a friend who was pregnant went into labour. She was
having contractions and cardiac arrest-like crisis, water in her lung etc. She was in coma for five days and people were confused. I brought my handkerchiefs from the Holy Ghost congress and as people prayed, I waived the handkerchiefs and God healed her completely after few days. She was delivered of her baby in January to the glory of God. - Dens. Stacy Ilegar

ALABI NOW WALKS WITHOUT CRUTCHES
I was involved in a car accident on March 2013 and I was the only survivor. I was unconscious when they took me to the Orthopedic Hospital in Igbobi. I was put on trial because the medical team thought I would not make it. I had a fracture and immediately all the flesh and muscle decayed and the doctor said they would amputate the leg, but my brother refused and said, Jesus will heal me. On the day the leg would be amputated, God stepped in and my toes received life and began to move. I was taken to the theater but I met myself in heaven, I saw angels and
I wanted to catch up with them but I could not. I later entered into their midst and heard a voice that says, you can't see Jesus because I was asking for Jesus. I became conscious but I was like dead person. I could not eat but was in pain. I called on God to take my life one day but as I slept I had a dream in which Jesus came with a sword to heal me. The doctor said I would not be able to walk again, but I was able to walk through the healing power of Jesus. I came to Redemption Camp the day I was discharged, and God perfected my healing. I was using two crutches before, but I can now walk - to the glory of God. - Den. Sunday Alabi

6 IVFs, 5 INSEMINATIONS FAILED BUT Goo DID IT FOR us
My wife and I got married in 1995 and since then we have been trusting God for the fruit of the womb. We did everything humanly possible to have a baby but all was abortive. At times we were told that my wife was pregnant only to be told later that there is no longer any pregnancy in her womb. We went through this trauma not once, not twice. - Bankoles
My wife had six In Vitro Fertilizations (IVFs) in addition to five insemination procedures (direct injection of semen into the womb) all to no avail. We suffered many loses both financially and emotionally.
We had nearly no problem with our families. Our families are Christian by the grace of God. My mum & my 'mum-in-love" would always say "the Almighty God will make you fruitful". They really stood by us. My wife happened to be the first child of nine children of her parent. Her younger ones except one already have children. I cannot debunk the fact that some members of the family might have said within themselves that probably we are destined not to have children having waited for so long. Knowing my stand and that of my wife in the Lord , they really encouraged us. May God bless them all. Our pastors, Church members, neighbours and friends also encouraged us in our trying years. Towards the end of 2016, we wrote to Daddy G.O explaining every­ thing we have done and Daddy wrote back that we should attend Shiloh hour in November. We came for Shiloh hour and Daddy called us out and prayed for us that God will have His way.
We went for another IVF early in 2017, but it failed again. We remembered that Daddy has prayed for us and he said the Lord has done it. To the glory of God, without any IVF my wife conceived. The pregnancy journey was a joyful season. I will be 49 years old in April while my wife will be 48years old in September .
The doctor couldn't believe it knowing that my wife was pregnant, because the last IVF came back negative. To the glory of God, in November 2017, the Lord gave us a baby girl, Precious Gift Victoria Oluwasetemi after 23 years of waiting. Today, the God of Adeboye has taken care of the trauma by turning our mourning to dancing and our story to glory. - Pastor Bankole Emmanuel

BABY GIRL ENDS 9 YEARS OF WAITING
I waited for nine years for the fruit of the womb which took me through various experiences among which was the evacuation of my womb. But the faithfulness of God moved into my situation and the Lord blessed me with a bouncing baby girl during the 2017 special Holy Ghost service. She was lifeless initially but after
intensive prayers at the RCCG Maternity centre at living stone parish, Abule egba, she came back to life. - Sis. Precious Igbinoba
DELIVERED FROM GUNMEN
God gave us divine deliverance from gunmen. We linked up with the Cross overnight conducted by Pastor Adeboye on, December 31.st, 2017, in our Church in Benue State. When we left the Church, we ran into the company of six men with gun and cutlasses. God delivered us miraculously despite several cuttings on our cars. - A/P (Mrs.) Chinwe Martins

HOLY COMMUNION MEAL HEALS FIBROID
I was sick in December 2017 and diagnosed of fibroid which resulted to anemia and other complications. I was supposed to go for a surgery; but, I came to Re­demption camp for watch night service and participated in the last Holy Com­munion of the year. After the meal, God surprised me as he took away the fibroid completely. Secondly, I was poisoned but I went to the January Holy Ghost service, where Pastor E. A. Adeboye prayed for us and the Lord healed me completely.
- Sis. Ebi Jarike

THE DEAD CAME TO LIFE AFTER 12 DAYS
In May 2018 Holy Ghost Service, there was a bigger testimony a young man told us. He used an handkerchief anointed by Daddy G.O on a corpse already em­ balmed after being dead twelve days - and the dead came back to life!

RCCG 66 Annual Convention: Welcome Message || #Dominion

Dearly beloved brethren,
All glory and honour and praise be to our Heavenly Father, the King Eternal, the blessed and only Potentate, who has brought us here together for the 66th An­nual Convention of this glorious mission. The Lord has indeed been very gracious to us since we last gathered here, with abundant testimonies of His tender mercies; of miracles, deliverance, victories and provision. The theme this year is DOMINION, and that was God's original mandate for mankind: to dominate, to rule, to control, to subdue, to be fruitful and to exer­cise authority on earth. However, man lost the au­thority to rule and dominate when Adam and Eve fell; became subject to all manner of failures, sickness and oppressions. But thanks be to God, who made a way for us to regain lost power and authority through Jesus Christ who became for us the Author of salvation - for as many as received Him. (John 1:12-23).
God expects you to pay attention to Genesis 1:26-28 and to fulfill that mandate in every sphere of life. Sin, sick­ ness, failure and poverty can no longer have dominion over you because you understand your rights and privileges in Christ. God wants you to be successful, prosperous, abundant, rewarding, productive. Not only so, but for you to be prolific in soul winning and by extension dominate the whole world. He expects you to become awake to your responsibility as His child and add value to the kingdom of God continuously and vigorously every day. If we want the reward that God desires, then we have to operate the way God operates. We no longer have any excuse not to exercise dominion in every sphere of life because, in Jesus Christ, God has already given unto us all things that pertain to life and godliness. (2 Peter 1:3).
All that you will be taught during the course of this convention, is to provide the framework for you to go into the world and change the world for Christ. I encourage you to diligently hear, observe and be determined to obey God's word. Commit yourself to fervency in prayer, be focused and do not allow your­ self to be distracted from the reason why God brought you here. Put past failures and disappointments behind you and concentrate on what God has in store for your life and the future. As you begin to understand the principles and walk in dominion, all things will become subject to you. You will regain spiritual strength and vigour. Nothing will be able to defy you nor stand in your way ever again. There will be great manifestations of God's power and grace upon your life from now on. Therefore, it is with gladness of heart and great joy that we welcome you to the 2018 Convention that will transform you into a victor, conqueror, overcomer and a fruitful believer, in Jesus name.
Many Blessings,
Pastor E.A. ADEBOYE
General Overseer.
