VISION IMPLICATIONS
To bring to reality the wish and desire of The Father and propagate
the work that Jesus Christ came to commission on Earth through His
life, death, resurrection and ascension, the vision of Ocean of Grace
was given. This is the embodiment of what we now call OCEAN OF
GRACE INTERNATIONAL KINDGOM CENTER. Since the outpouring of
the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, fifty days after the
Resurrection and ten days after the Ascension, the work of
evangelism was handed down to all believers. The church as been a
factory ever since. Many more Church Factories will be born in the
years to come until we achieve the mandate of Isa.11:9; Hbk 2:14

 Passion is an obsessive desire for what you love usually expressed
outwardly with signs and symptoms as if one is addicted to the object of
love.
 It was David’s passionate love for God that made him dance and didn’t
even know when his outer garment came off and still didn’t stop dancing
for God
 Paul’s passion for the Gospel is seen in all his epistles. 1 Cor.9:16

teachings of Christ and the Apostles of the Lamb. Matthew 28:18-20

Restoration.
 Jesus Christ is coming for a glorious church, without spot, or wrinkle, or
any blemish.
 Largely, the Body of Christ has been in apostasy for almost two decades!
 It will take nothing short of a great and massive wave of revival to bring
the Church back to normalcy.
 To initiate, precipitate and sustain the kind of revival needed for the world
to come to repentance and Christ-likeness requires a Church Revolution.
 Church Revolution is a total change from the conventional ways of
preaching, teaching, evangelizing and running of services. It is penetrating
into the world with the systems and principles of righteousness.
OCEAN OF GRACE INTERNATIONAL KINGDOM CENTER
VISION COMPONENTS
 SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION is the effect of world-penetrating Gospel.
 When the Gospel moves from Churches to the Marketplace and Political
and Economic Governance, Social Transformation is the result.
 When the principles, systems and strategies of the Kingdom of God is used
to craft and draft constitutions of government, economic policies, social
structures, scientific and technological innovations, judicial framework,
parliamentary roadmaps and guidelines, the result is a society that is
transformed by the Spirit.
 Such a Spirit Transformed Society was what was on God’s mind when He
created the Garden of Eden. The Early Church had taste of this dimension
in Acts 2:44-45. The Church is expected to continue in this pursuit until
Jesus comes to bring the restoration of all things in the Millennium Kind
OCEAN OF GRACE INTERNATIONAL KINGDOM CENTER
VISION COMPONENTS
 GLOBAL DOMINATION – This will be actualized when Spirit-Driven Social
Transformation is replicated in every sector of society and in every region
of the world.

Pestilence, Corruption, Bad Governance, Illiteracy, Violence, Racism etc.
will continue to thrive until the Church achieve the task of Global
Domination by Social Transformation and Church Revolution.

distributors of wealth! The world needs more global minded Christians
