EXHORTATION LINES Monday 17th – Saturday 22nd May, 2021 Monday, October 18, 2021 1. Plague of Sickness Destroyed after Joining this Commission! ‘I joined this Commission in 2018, beaten, battered and sick. The hospital became the second home of my family, and nothing was working for me. However, I left the East and came to Canaanland, and Bishop David Oyedepo encouraged first- timers to engage with every instruction and prophetic declarations from the altar for three months. While he made declarations in that service, he cursed every siege over our career, family and life. I keyed into the declarations and engaged in Kingdom advancement prayer. I also invited people and all my friends to church. That same year, in August, my family joined me. Since we joined this church till date, none of my family has fallen sick, and my business has been restored. I return all the glory to God!’ — Christopher Okeke
19 Years Barrenness Destroyed!
“I joined this commission some 10 months ago, I had been barren for 19 years. Everything about me was sorrow. At one of the services in February last year, the Bishop told people believing God for miracle children to come to the altar with their babies’ items. I came out and the Bishop prayed for us. After the prayers, the Bishop told us to give God an hour of praise weekly, when we got home. He advised us to switch off our phones to avoid distraction. I obeyed! God stepped in and visited me and exactly 10 months of my joining this church, I delivered my baby girl! God wiped away my tears of 19 years barrenness!”--- Odochi Uhuoma. Tuesday, October 19, 2021
2. Delivered from Indebtedness!
‘For years, I was indebted, and things were not going well with me. However, one Sunday morning in 2018, the Holy Spirit told me to come to Winners that day to hear the message, so I came. While Bishop David Oyedepo ministered, he shared the testimony of a man of God who was about to die, but he instructed his family to take his tithe from his pocket and pay it on his behalf. Then the Bishop said, if the man who was at the point of death could still have that at the back of his heart, then there is something behind tithing. That struck my heart and I paid my tithe and followed the Word. That same week, my debt was paid, and ever since, everything has been going on fine with me. In 2020, during the lockdown, I bought a land and started building my own house. When the year began, the Lord bought me my car, and my business has changed. I give God all the glory!’ — Wheto Temitope
3. Healed of Excruciating Pain via Prophetic Declaration!
‘In November 2020, I had excruciating pain in my body each time I used drugs. I went to see a doctor, and I was told it could be partial stroke, which I rejected. When the pains persisted, I went back to the doctor, and I was placed on drugs. The pains subsided, but I was not totally healed. However, it came again early this year, and I tried to manage it. During the 40th Anniversary Prophetic Feast, I was on ground. While Bishop David Oyedepo made declarations in one of the services, he said, “When you wake up tomorrow, you will be totally healed!” and I keyed into it. Truly, I wole up healed, now, I am totally healed of all pains. I give God all the glory!’ — Asafa Kofoworola Wednesday, October 20, 2021 God Turned My Stagnation To Promotion!’ “I had been stagnated in my job for the past five years. I usually attend the fourth service every Sunday. Last Sunday, after the church service, God spoke to me, ‘Go to Canaan Land, dance, praise and worship Me.’ I obeyed, despite the heavy traffic and I came. After dancing, praising and worshipping God, the following day, another job came my way, which I never dreamt of! Here is the appointment letter! God turned my stagnation into promotion! I give Him all the glory!” ---Amos Iluromi.
4. Healed of Hyperthyroidism via Soul Winning!
‘In 2016, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism (a condition that occurs due to excessive production of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland.) However, I administered all the Kingdom mysteries and engaged in Kingdom advancement endeavours. Also, while my Provincial Pastor laid hands on me, I read the book titled Rescued from Destruction, authored by Pastor (Mrs) Faith Oyedepo. Thereafter, I had an encounter with Bishop David Oyedepo in my dream. He gave me the Holy Communion, but the situation remained the same. Then God told me to win soul, and I did. When the soul was established, my healing came. Now, I am healed. I give God all the glory!’ — Helen Njoku O. Thursday, October 21, 2021 5. Healed of Angina Pain! ‘For years, I suffered from angina pain with severe neck pain, palpitations, back pain and depression. However, I heard Bishop David Oyedepo talk about the importance of Kingdom advancement endeavours; so, I engaged and kept engaging despite the pains. Thereafter, I connected online for the Miracle Service, and while the Bishop made declarations, he declared, “Heart disease is healed!” and I keyed into that. Since then, I have not experienced the pains again. Now, I am healed and free. I return all the glory to God!’ — Alimamy Fullah (Sierra Leone)
6. Supernatural Transformation after Salvation!
‘For thirty years, I was addicted to alcohol, and I was a perpetual drunkard. I am a bricklayer, and I have travelled almost across the country, but I had nothing to show for it. I got drunk to the point that I slept outside in the rain both day and night. However, in February, one of the Pastors in this church came to my village. He saw me in my devastated state outside and naked as usual. He took me inside my house and came back very early the next day. For the first time, I heard about the love of Christ and what He did for us by His Blood and Resurrection. Then I gave my life to Christ, but I could not go to church. However, this Pastor never stopped coming to my house, and most times, as early as 5 a.m. Thereafter, in March, he told me about the Anointing Service, and I decided to attend, and that was the turnaround point in my life. God show up, and the next morning, the thirst for alcohol died. The desire to wander around the village after drinking stopped. As if that was not enough, for the first time in thirty years, I worked and purchased big farm plantation worth thousands of naira. My life has been transformed, and now, I am a preacher of the gospel. I return all glory to the God of Bishop David Oyedepo! — Ayodele Akinwunmi Friday, October 22, 2021 7. Healed of COVID-19! ‘In December 2020, I tested positive for COVID-19, and for twenty-four days, I was bedridden. The doctor told me I needed to be admitted, but I refused. At about 7:00 a.m. the next day, while my wife went to get oxygen for me, I heard a voice say, “Go and listen to Bishop David Oyedepo’s message on Is There No Balm in Gilead!” Thereafter, while listening, I placed my hands on the TV screen as the Bishop ministered, and I felt the siege of COVID-19 destroyed immediately. Then I asked the doctor to do another test. Lo and behold, when the result came back, I was declared free from the virus. I give God all the glory!’ — Reverend Sebastian Mubikah (Zimbabwe)
8. Miracle Job via Prayer!
‘For eight years, one of my sons that completed his Masters was without a job. So, we came to Canaanland on a Saturday and attended WSF; thereafter, we met with Pastor David Oyedepo (Jnr), and he prayed for him. That same evening, when we got back to where we lodged, my son got three calls for job offers. Now, he has resumed with one, which is an international company. Three weeks ago, when my second son completed his National Youth Service Programme, I advised him to do the same thing his elder brother did. So, we came to church, and we saw Bishop David Oyedepo, who prayed for him. That same evening, my son went for evangelism. Thereafter, he called the company that once engaged him, and they told him they had been looking for him. Lo and behold, he also got a miracle job. I give God all the glory!’ — Awoyele Deborah Saturday, October 23, 2021 9. Five Years Barrenness Terminated! ‘The 35th-anniversary celebration of this Commission was a turning point in my family. We had trusted God for our baby for five years, and after all medical procedures, in March 2016, our case was declared “inexplanable infertility.” We were advised to proceed on another medical trial, which required quite a huge amount of money. However, we came for the 35th- anniversary celebration, and after the service, we decided to stay over in church to pray. That night, we prayed and called on the God of this mandate, and we made a vow to sow the amount requested for the medical trial. Then God showed up! In June 2016, a month later, my wife missed her period for the first time, and in March 2017, God blessed us with a baby boy. The God of this Commission is real and still works wonder! We are proof of the mandate. We return all the glory to God!’ — Mr and Mrs Noah Abiona
10. Divine Provision via Prophetic Declaration!
‘In March, during one of the Sunday Services, Bishop David Oyedepo prayed for those who opened their houses for the Winners Satellite Fellowship. Thereafter, even though we lived in a one-room self-contain with poor living condition, my sister and I desired the ark of God in our home. Also, in one of the Mid-week services, the Bishop prayed for them again, and then, he asked those who desired to have the ark in their homes to signify, and we did. He prayed for us and declared that God would make it happen. Two days later, a friend called me sent money for a two-bedroom and parlour apartment in Lekki and we got a good apartment that its compound can accommodate about two hundred home cell members. We return all the glory to God!’ — Joy and Favour Ajima
