The atmosphere was power-packed from the beginning to the end of the church service. Everyone was in high spirits as they witnessed the demonstration of God’s grace and glory from different angles. The choir had prepared the minds of congregants with songs that propagated repentance, submission to God’s will and love for one another as exemplified by the life of Christ.
The ministration of the New Morning Water by evangelists brought the kingdom of darkness down to its knees as yokes, afflictions and demonic manipulations were brought to an end, in the mighty name of Jesus. The joy of deliverance and freedom from oppression were felt throughout the atmosphere as the children of God testified to the great things the Lord has done for them.
Clips of the Paraguay Crusade with Prophet T.B. Joshua were rebroadcast to the glory of God. As a faith building medium, the testimonies that followed the crusade showed that the power of God is universal and not bound by the barriers of nationality, race or colour. The testimony of Susana Gonzalez who was healed of an age-long spinal problem was incredibly inspiring as it accentuated the fact that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever.
In his message titled THE BEAUTY OF OUR CHRISTIAN JOURNEY, Evangelist Daniel called on believers to see trials and temptations as necessary elements of the Christian race, adding that they are fundamental in our quest for a higher calling. “Trials, tribulations or challenges are a tonic to their spiritual growth,” he observed, further submitting that, “They are a driving force to a higher aspiration in life”.
Recalling what Jesus said to His disciples in the Gospel of John 16:13, he explained that the world is full of tribulations and trials but that those who are in Christ Jesus, those who are on God’s side will not be overwhelmed by the troubles of the world because He has overcome the world on our behalf.
He also noted that working against such a principle and counsel is indeed working against the beauty of our Christian journey. He then concluded, stressing that as our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ took our place in affliction, we are to bear hardship and tribulations as good soldiers of Christ. “The beauty of our Christian journey are the trials and difficulties we encounter on our way to redemption…They are tests to mature you as a Christian”.
