  • The Mystery Fire: Lessons Revealed – Part 4

    The Mystery Fire: Lessons Revealed – Part 4

    Terror by Night

    Key Text: Psalm 91:5 (NKJV) — “You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day.”

    As the mystery surrounding the 3AM fire continued to unfold in my spirit, the Holy Spirit unveiled another vital truth:
    There is a realm of spiritual warfare that intensifies during the night.

    This lesson is titled: “Terror by Night.”

    A Time When Darkness Operates

    Night is naturally a time for rest, but spiritually it can also be a time when the enemy operates under the veil of physical and mental inactivity.

    The Holy Spirit reminded me that:

    “You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day.”
    — Psalm 91:5 (NKJV)

    This “terror by night” is not just physical danger—it also represents unseen spiritual attacks that often strike during times of spiritual slumber.

    When a believer sleeps spiritually, it creates an opening for:

    • Discouragement
    • Confusion
    • Unnoticed attacks
    • Delays and diversions

    “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.”
    — 1 Peter 5:8 (NKJV)

    Stay Spiritually Awake

    It’s not just about keeping your eyes open at night—it’s about keeping your spirit man alert.

    Remaining spiritually awake means:

    • Discernment is sharp
    • The enemy’s arrows are deflected
    • The Holy Spirit can prompt and guide you

    This is how we overcome the terror by night.

    How to Overcome the Terror by Night

    Here are four proven biblical strategies:

    1. Dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High

    “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
    — Psalm 91:1 (NKJV)

    When you make God’s presence your dwelling place, His covering becomes your shield.

    2. Trust in God’s Protection

    “Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.”
    — Psalm 125:1-3 (NKJV)

    Faith is a spiritual shield. The more we trust Him, the more unshakable we become.

    3. Know Who You Are in God

    “He who touches you touches the apple of His eye.”
    — Zechariah 2:8 (NKJV)
    “Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand…”
    — Isaiah 40:12 (NKJV)

    As God’s child, you are not forgotten or vulnerable—you are protected in the palm of His hand.

    4. Declare God’s Word Over Your Life

    “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord.”
    — Isaiah 54:17 (NKJV)

    Your declarations form a spiritual firewall. Speak peace, protection, and victory daily—especially before you sleep.

    A Final Prayer for You

    I declare in the name of Jesus that no terror by night, no evil force, and no invisible arrow shall come near you or your family. Your sleep shall be peaceful, and your spirit shall be sharp and full of light.

    Let’s Talk!

    What are some of the ways you overcome spiritual warfare at night?

    At the End It Shall Speak

    Topic: At the End It Shall Speak: Running with the Wonder Double Prophetic Vision
    Date: Tuesday, April 22, 2025
    Text: Habakkuk 2:1-4

    Let this word light up your spirit and fuel your pursuit of the Wonder Double Prophetic Mandate.
    Click the play button to listen now – At the End It Shall Speak

    Introduction

    Every divine vision speaks loudest at its appointed time. As written in Habakkuk 2:3,
    “For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.”

    This is the crowning season for the Wonder Double Prophetic Agenda Vision to speak clearly in our midst — and every Winner is a vital part of its fulfillment.

    What Is the Wonder Double Prophetic Agenda?

    The Wonder Double Prophetic Agenda is a divine mandate declared for this prophetic season:

    Every Winner is to bring at least three (3) souls to church on or before Sunday, April 27th, 2025 — to see them saved and planted in the house of God.

    This is not just a goal; it is a faith-driven vision, a divine expectation to align with God’s heartbeat for souls. As we run with this vision, our commitment must be anchored in the revelation that at the end it shall speak.

    Staying Committed Until the End

    Visions speak only at the end — not in the middle. The full delivery of any divine agenda requires tenacity, faith, and unwavering pursuit.

    “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised)” – Hebrews 10:23 KJV
    “The just shall live by his faith.” – Habakkuk 2:4 KJV

    We must keep pressing until the April 27th prophetic benchmark is crossed, knowing that the God who spoke is also faithful to perform.

    Absolute Confidence in God Fuels Results

    Like Abraham, we are called to believe even when results seem delayed.

    “He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;”
    “And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.” – Romans 4:20-21 KJV

    Your three souls may not be in yet — but keep believing. Go again. Follow up again. Invite again. Pray again. It will speak — and it shall not lie.

    What Should We Be Doing Now?

    1. Keep Your Faith Alive – Mark 9:23
    Faith is not optional; it’s the engine of fulfillment. Jesus said, “If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”

    2. Give Thanks Always – Ephesians 5:20; 1 Thessalonians 5:18
    Whether one soul has shown up or none yet, thank God for what He’s already doing behind the scenes. Gratitude is how we stay spiritually aligned for the full reward.

    3. Thanksgiving Provokes Completion – Luke 17:17-19
    When one of the ten lepers returned to give thanks, he was made whole. Thanksgiving seals the deal. As you thank God for every soul reached, you position yourself for total and speedy fulfillment.

    Conclusion: Your Three Souls Will Speak

    God’s agenda for us in this season is clear: each Winner must deliver at least three souls by Sunday, April 27th, 2025. And as we engage with faith, passion, and thanksgiving, we are guaranteed to see it speak at the end.

    “Though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” – Habakkuk 2:3 KJV

  • What to Expect at the Easter Faith Convention 2025

    Opening Night Teachings by Bishop David Oyedepo | Faith Tabernacle, Ota | April 17, 2025

    The much-anticipated Easter Faith Convention 2025 opened in grandeur and power at Faith Tabernacle, Ota, Nigeria, under the prophetic theme: “Infallible Proofs” (Acts 1:3). In his signature revelatory depth, Bishop David Oyedepo delivered two powerful teachings that set the stage for undeniable encounters with the resurrection power of Christ.

    From stirring the hearts of believers to set their expectations, to unveiling the resurrection as the root of our spiritual authority, the opening session was nothing short of a divine activation.

    Teaching 1: What to Expect at the Easter Faith Convention

    Bishop Oyedepo began with a passionate charge, urging every attendee to approach the convention with a strong sense of individuality in their walk with God.

    “Be very personal because the Spirit of the Word does not enter groups; it enters individuals.”

    It’s not about attending the event; it’s about being personally positioned to receive a life-transforming Word. According to Proverbs 24:13-14, expectation is divine wisdom for destiny fulfillment, and what you don’t expect, you don’t experience.

    What Should You Expect from this Convention?

    1. Removal of Spiritual Veils
      Expect every veil covering your access to revelation to be supernaturally torn.
      Matthew 27:52-53; Isaiah 25:6-8
    2. Raw Encounters with Resurrection Power
      Look forward to divine visitations marked by signs, wonders, and miracles.
      Acts 1:3; Ephesians 1:18-20
    3. Triumph Over Your Enemies
      The resurrection power will cause your adversaries to submit.
      Psalm 66:3
    4. Opening of New Chapters
      Fresh visions and revelations will unveil new dimensions in your life.
      2 Corinthians 3:18
    5. Next-Level Spiritual Authority
      Receive power and dominion to command signs and wonders.
      Luke 9:1; Ephesians 1:21
    6. Supernatural Change of Story
      Expect remarkable, turnaround testimonies.
      1 Corinthians 15:42-43
    7. Encounter with the Resurrected Christ
      Be prepared for a personal visitation that launches you into your next level.

    This is more than a gathering; it’s a divine appointment. And your expectation is the key that unlocks your transformation.

    Teaching 2: Unveiling the Resurrection Roots of Our Spiritual Authority

    Transitioning powerfully into the second message, Bishop Oyedepo shed light on the foundational role of Christ’s resurrection in establishing the believer’s spiritual authority. The resurrection is not a seasonal doctrine—it is the lifeline of our dominion in Christ.

    “Jesus, being raised from the dead, is the very secret and source of our spiritual authority as believers.”

    Key Revelations on Resurrection and Authority:

    1. Resurrection is Your Authority Source
      Christ didn’t just rise—He rose to enthrone you as a king and priest. This is the root of your kingdom authority.
    2. Revelation is Vital
      Without a revelation of what resurrection accomplished, you may carry power and never exercise it.
      Hebrews 4:16
    3. Mentality Precedes Manifestation
      Authority is not in words alone. You must think, speak, and act like one who has been raised with Christ.
    4. Faith Anchored in Resurrection Delivers Results
      Your faith draws life from the risen Christ. Without this root, your faith becomes weak and unproductive.
    5. Stay Connected to the Root
      As a tree draws nutrients from its roots, believers must stay connected to resurrection truth to remain fruitful, powerful, and unstoppable.

    “Stay connected to the root, and you will remain a partaker of the fatness of the root.”

    Final Charge: Step Into Your Infallible Proofs

    This convention is an open portal to divine encounters. As Bishop Oyedepo declared, infallible proofs are not myths—they are spiritual realities awaiting your expectation and revelation-based participation.

    Whether you’re attending on-site at Faith Tabernacle or joining online, position yourself for:

    • Fresh revelation
    • Resurrection-backed authority
    • Bold declarations
    • And undeniable, next-level testimonies.

    This is your season for Infallible Proofs!

  • Rahab’s Faith: The Confidence That Enters God’s Hall of Fame

    How a harlot’s faith became a model of trust, courage, and transformation

    In the great gallery of faith recorded in Hebrews 11—often referred to as the “Hall of Faith”—you’ll find patriarchs like Abraham, warriors like Gideon, and prophets like Moses. But nestled among these giants stands a surprising name: Rahab the harlot.

    How did a woman with such a disreputable past earn her place among the legends of faith? The answer lies in her bold declaration in Joshua 2:9:

    “I know that the Lord hath given you the land…”

    This wasn’t wishful thinking. It wasn’t religious rhetoric. It was unshakable confidence—a level of faith that pierced through her past and connected her to God’s eternal plan.

    1. Faith Built on Revelation, Not Religion

    Rahab was a Canaanite. She had no covenant with God. Yet, she heard about the mighty acts of the Lord—how He dried up the Red Sea and destroyed mighty kings. That knowledge sparked something deeper in her: conviction.

    When the Israelite spies arrived in Jericho, Rahab didn’t hesitate. She made a confession of faith that reflected certainty, not curiosity:

    “I KNOW that the Lord hath given you the land…” (Joshua 2:9)

    She didn’t say “I hope,” “I think,” or even “I believe.” She said, “I know.” That’s not just faith—it’s certainty based on spiritual insight.

    2. Faith That Graduates into Trust

    Rahab’s faith wasn’t just a spoken confession—it was a risky decision. She hid the spies at the risk of her life. She tied a scarlet cord to her window as a token of her trust in God’s promise. She negotiated not just for her safety but for her entire household.

    This is what mature faith looks like—faith that graduates into trust. She moved from believing in what God could do to depending on what He would do.

    3. Faith That Redefines Identity

    Many people are trapped by their past, convinced that God only uses perfect people. Rahab destroys that myth.

    • She was known as a harlot.
    • She was a foreigner.
    • She had no spiritual résumé.

    Yet, her faith rewrote her story. Not only did she survive the fall of Jericho, she became the great-great-grandmother of King David and an ancestor of Jesus Christ Himself (Matthew 1:5).

    Faith qualifies the disqualified. When God sees faith, He doesn’t consult your history—He reveals your destiny.

    4. Faith That Unlocks the Supernatural

    Jesus echoed this principle in Mark 9:23:

    “If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”

    Rahab believed before she saw the walls fall. She believed before she saw salvation. And because she believed, everything changed.

    Faith sees the invisible, speaks the impossible, and acts on the intangible. Rahab’s story is proof that faith doesn’t wait for circumstances to align—it creates new realities.

    Conclusion: Faith That Enters God’s Record Books

    Rahab’s journey from shame to significance reminds us that faith is the key to transformation. She had no title, no background, no religious upbringing—but she had faith.

    And that was enough.

    So the next time you feel unworthy, uncertain, or unqualified, remember Rahab. God isn’t looking for perfection—He’s looking for people who say, “I KNOW the Lord has given…”

    Because faith that knows is the faith that grows.
    And faith that grows is the faith that enters God’s Hall of Fame.

  • The Touch that Changed Everything: The Woman with the Issue of Blood

    In a moment of desperation, a woman whose name we do not know changed the course of her life with a single act of faith. Her story is recorded in three of the four Gospels—Matthew, Mark, and Luke—each offering a unique perspective on one of the most powerful healing miracles in the ministry of Jesus.

    This account, often referred to as “The Woman with the Issue of Blood,” is not just a story of physical healing—it’s a testament to faith, resilience, and the compassion of Christ.

    A Long-Standing Affliction

    The woman had been suffering from a chronic hemorrhage for twelve years. According to Levitical law (Leviticus 15:25-27), such a condition rendered her ceremonially unclean, which meant exclusion from normal social and religious life.

    Despite spending all she had on physicians, her condition only worsened. Her physical pain was compounded by emotional and spiritual isolation. Yet, hope was not lost.

    A Bold Move of Faith

    In Matthew 9:20-22, the story is told briefly. She approached Jesus from behind, believing that touching even the hem of His garment would be enough to heal her. As soon as she did, Jesus turned and said:

    “Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole.” (Matthew 9:22)

    Immediately, she was healed.

    Mark’s Detailed Account: A Touch Felt in Heaven

    Mark 5:25-34 provides the most detailed version of this encounter. Mark explains that she had “suffered many things of many physicians” and spent all her money trying to find a cure. Yet, when she touched Jesus’ garment, she felt the healing instantly.

    But what’s striking is what happened next. Jesus, sensing that power had gone out from Him, stopped and asked:

    “Who touched my clothes?” (Mark 5:30)

    His disciples were confused by the question, surrounded as they were by a pressing crowd. But Jesus wasn’t looking for a random bump—He was responding to a deliberate act of faith.

    The woman, trembling, stepped forward and confessed. Jesus didn’t scold her; instead, He honored her courage and belief:

    “Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.” (Mark 5:34)

    Luke’s Emphasis on Medical Helplessness

    Luke 8:43-48, written by a physician, underscores her medical hopelessness. Despite spending all her money, “she could not be healed by anyone.” But Luke confirms that when she touched Jesus, her bleeding stopped instantly.

    Again, Jesus asked, “Who touched me?” And when the woman came forward, He told her:

    “Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.” (Luke 8:48)

    The Heart of the Story: Faith That Moves the Hand of God

    This woman’s story is more than just physical healing—it’s a spiritual awakening. She risked public shame, rejection, and even punishment to reach out in faith. She didn’t need an audience with Jesus, a lengthy prayer, or a dramatic ceremony. She just needed to believe. She needed a miracle, and she got one. – “A deliberate act of God provoked by the desperate faith of men” – Bishop David Oyedepo

    And Jesus didn’t just heal her body—He restored her dignity by calling her “Daughter,” publicly affirming her worth and her faith.

    Lessons for Us Today

    • Faith isn’t passive. It moves. It acts. It reaches out even when the odds seem stacked against us.
    • Jesus responds to faith. Even in a crowd, He notices the individual who touches Him with genuine belief.
    • Restoration is holistic. Jesus doesn’t just heal physically—He restores spiritually, emotionally, and socially.

    Final Thoughts

    The woman with the issue of blood reminds us that no situation is too hopeless for Jesus. Whether you’ve been battling something for 12 years, 12 Months or 12 days—faith has the power to break through every barrier. “For with God nothing shall be impossible” (Luke 1:37)

    Let her story be your encouragement today: Reach out. Touch Him. And be made whole. You are next in line for a miracle!
