PASTOR’S PEN

Now I commit you to God and to the Word of his Grace, which can build you up and give you

an inheritance among all those who are sanctified. The Word of God is a complete package of your inheritance in life. It contains everything you will ever need for life and godliness; long life and prosperity is yours; it all belongs to you. There was an exchange as we can see from the Word of God in 2 Corinthians 8:9 “For you know the race of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich. Covenant wealth is your heritage!

Laying Hold Of Your Inheritance

There are two phases of life that we have to live according to 1 Timothy 4:8 which says, For physical

training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. First, our life here on earth and second, your life after now(in heaven) It is God’s will that you have a complete package of your inheritance in both phases of life. This is why Jesus died for you and I. He paid the price on the cross of calvary so that we can secure our inheritance in him. Everyone will die some day, your strenght and the things you have will end some day and you will face the life to come, it is only in christ that your future is secure. It is my desire that everyone of us will secure our inheritance here on earth and in the life to come in Jesus name!

God’s Will For Us Is To Live A Life of Fulfilment

The Word of God is addressed to all children og God. It refers to you and I. God has spoken many

beautiful things concerning you and we are yet to experience those things in our lives. So many prophecies have gone forth and we are yet to see them fulfilled in our lives. Numbers 23:19 states clearly that God is not a man that

he should lie, nor a son of man that he should repent. It is impossible for God to lie! His words can not fail. Men can lie to you, your pastor can lie to you, even your husband can lie to you but God cannot! Malachi 3:6 shows us clearly that God cannot change. God did not lie to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob neither did He lie to Elijah. He is still the same God. His promises toward us will surely come to pass.

The Word Of God Is Able To Build You Up

Some of us wonder why God’s word is not fulfilled in our lives as a church and as individuals. It is important

to note that God’s word carries Grace and it has the ability to build us up. If there is anything we should crave for this season, it is the Word of God. We should have an affinity for the word of God. Church is not about singing and dancing alone, it is about the Word of God. God’s word is his instrument for building up our lives. Your weight in the Spirit is determined by the amount of God’s word that is at work in your life. Some of us are feather weight christians and that is why we are blown to and fro by every wind of doctrine. If you are not built up, you will be blown off! So develop a hunger for the Word of God like never before.

Let God’s Word Take Root In You

God’s will for us is that we should be givers and not beggers and this is only possible through His

Word. His Word can transform you! It is written in the Word “Follow me and I will make you” not I will give you. God’s word transforms us into new beings. The prayer of a child is “give me” but when the Word of God takes root in your life and you begin to mature in the Spirit, your prayers become “Lord make me”. I see God making something out of your life In Jesus name! Amen.

By Pastor Tunde Benjamins-LaniyiS E C U R I N G Y O U R I N H E R I T A N C E

Acts 20:32: And now I commend you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all

those who are sanctified.

“Long life is your heritage, peace

is your heritage, good health is

your inheritance, wealth is yours,

it belongs to you”.

“TESTIMONIES

Testimonies have a way of reproducing themselves

I have come here to glorify God. I went through a sickness for 3 years; it started 7 years ago but got worse 3 years ago. My family prayed and God healed

me, before the surgery God gave me a word “Be still and know that I am your God, I am your STRONGHOLD” the devil came with different negative thoughts but God handled the surgery Himself. I also thank God for my Husband, Mother and Children who stood by me throughout the trying times. I give God all the glory…… Halleluyah! SIS. AYOOLA DANIELS

I want to thank God that I have been selectively favoured to be one of those that will benefit in the Young African Leadership Initiative (YALI)

organized by the US government. It was a very tough competition, among 50,000 applicants in Africa; I was chosen to be one of the selected 500 to participate in the initiative taking place in Washington DC. It has opened doors for me to study 6 months civic leadership course in one of the universities in USA and also meet with the president of the USA… Barrack Obama. Praise the Lord! SIS. LOUIS

Firstly, I thank God for his faithfulness, and the overflowing goodness He has bestowed on my life, by the grace of God my project that was supposed to

end on 31st of march 2014 was extended by our donor for another 5 years for $22 million. Secondly, In place of my 10 years old car that had an accident in January, God blessed me with two new ones. Finally, I thank God for all journey mercies he granted me in the year 2013. SIS. ULOMA OSUALA

I want to testify to the faithfulness of God for his Provision of an office space for me through a stranger free of charge. Secondly, God help me to sign a retainership agreement with a multinational company. God in his majesty wroth a great deliverance on my father’s behalf by delivering him from a fatal accident on his way

from Port-Harcourt after he got to Ore. BRO. OLUMIDE EMMANUEL

“ Divine SelectionGod Healed Me

God’s Faithfulness At Work

Divine Provision

Glory be to God! I want to use this opportunity to exalt the name of the Lord for his mighty acts in my life. Over the weekend, I went out with my kids to fix their bicycles somewhere in Gwarimpa. While we were there, my son got tired and wanted to rest

in the car so he went in to rest and my daughter followed him. While they were resting in the car, I took the last one with me who wanted to pee to a location where he could ease himself by the time I returned, I discovered my car was in a gutter across the road. My daughter had disengaged the gear of the car and it rolled across a busy road into the gutter. I have return to thank God for keeping my kids from accident because a car would have hit them in the process. Praise the Lord!

Divine Protection

Praise God! I have come to testify of the mighty acts of God in my life. On wednesday 25th of June I was miraculously

delivered from the bomb blast. In my daily devotion with my family, we read through Isaiah 65:20 where God promised us that none shall cast their young and the old men will fufill their days. That morning, I was led to make a confession against the spirit of death 5 times (which I did). I received a call to come and collect payment for a job that I executed for someone and after that, I felt like getting something for my self so, I stopped at Bannex to pick a phone for my self and a tablet for my kids. While I was doing that, some few yards from where I was carrying out these activities I heard the bang from the explosion. I want to just thank God that I am alive to share this testimony today. Hallelujah! BRO. CHIKE

Delivered From the Bomb Blast

TESTIMONIES

I would like to thank God for his faithfulness in my life. On wednesday 25th of june I went to First Bank around Emab plaza (before the bomb blast)to carry out some activities and I spent sometime there. I noticed there was no

long line at the bank (as usual) when I got there so I was able to carry out my transactions on time. About 10 minutes after I left there, there was a bomb blast. This was just a day before my birthday.If I had wasted a little more time, I would have been a victim of the blast. I have come to return all glory to God for preserving my life. Bro. Chuks

I Escaped the Bomb Blast

Six years ago, on the 1st of June, I went out to attend a friend’s 50th birthday anniversary; my daughter was in the house with the nanny when the house gutted fire. It was the guard that helped in pulling out my

daughter under the thick smoke and took her to the hospital. The doctors had to place her on oxygen. I am thanking God again for honoring His name in the live of my daughter (Ibukun Oluwa) which means God’s blessing. SIS. MO

Escape from fire Accident

I want to exalt the name of the Lord for his grace upon my life and my family. Last month my Dad was kidnapped in ekpoma and my dad is someone who is very sensitive to little things (health wise). While in the hands of the kidnappers, he was beaten by rain and he testified that he felt a strange presence that kept him warm. During this period, we were interceding for him. He was miraculously released and his health is in good condition.I want to Bless

the name of the Lord. Sis. Onome

Rescued From Kidnappers

WE’VE GOT THE POWERJ U N I O R C H U R C H

E A S T E R C A M P O U T

0ver the Easter weekend, a camp was organized for the children of the RCCG Upper Room Zone at the Omega Event Arena in Maitama. The theme of the camp was ‘the Power

of His resurrection’ and the memory verse was from John 15:13 , “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” The children and teenagers were taken on a life changing journey. New methods were used to teach bible lessons from the 12 sons of Jacob to the death and powerful resurrection of Jesus. Role playing, story telling, arts and crafts were used to teach different topics such as sin and its consequences and the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. A corner was created called Mary’s place to bring Jesus’ burial place and the cross to life.The children were told about the lives of different missionaries in order to expose them to missionary work. The Easter camp offered a good blend of spiritual and fun activities to engage the children and teenagers making it a memorable time in their lives. We had in attendance a total of over 200 children and teens, supported by 39 teachers and 29 volunteers. We really thank God for a successful and hitch free Easter camp meeting. We also thank all the parents and well-wishers who supported the event financially and prayerfully.

DHP JUNE EDITION

The auditorium was piquant with anticipation from the congregation floor, to the gallery, to the overflow. The Throne Room Priests led the Praise and Worship session, which in itself was a herald of things to come; spirit-filled, energetic

and vigorous. It broke through the barriers of stoicism and gloominess and filled the room with vibrancy and joy unspeakable. The message was preached by Pastor Dare Adeboye, the Regional Youth Evangelist RCCG, who while speaking described the month of June as “Joy Unspeakable, Now Expecting”, and encouraged the congregation to persevere, looking up to God as the Author and Finisher of their Faith, to stand firm and to be expectant.

When the Declare His Praise moment started, Alvin Slaughter took the stage and blessed the assembly with songs from albums he released as far back as 1998. Some of these songs were performed

with the Throne Room Priests and instrumentalists as backup, creating a seamless, glorious sound that had the crowd dancing, worshipping and praying all at the same time. Afterwards, his wife, Mrs Joy Slaughter exhorted the church, reinforcing that with God, there will always be deliverance, safety, preservation and protection. The Slaughters also mentioned that in all their travels, it had been a long time since they experienced such joyous and exuberant worship as they did in the Throne Room. All in all, it was a wonderful day, and we look forward to greater experiences in the months to follow.

MOTHERS ARISEM O T H E R ’ S D A Y A T T H E T H R O N E R O O M

Mothering Day can be traced back to Ancient Greece and Rome. In modern times, Mothering Sunday was celebrated in the UK and later on

in the US. The celebration of Mothers day is less than a hundred years old, it was championed by Julia Ward Howe and Anna Jarvis. Today it is celebrated on different days in 46 countries across the world. The Throne Room joined the rest of the The Redeemed Christian Church of God to celebrate Mother’s day under the theme ‘Mothers Arise’. Our very own Sister Dayo Benjamin-Laniyi taught on the role of women as change agents and nation builders. Her sermon was based on Judges 5 : 5-7. She encouraged women to be like Deborah and arise as mothers into their God mandated positions at home, in schools and the nation.

THRONE ROOM CARE CENTRES

SETH & NIRVAWhole World

1You have probably heard their voices but never knew who they were.

Nirva and Seth Ready were both leading background vocalists for some of music’s top performers like TobyMac, Chris Tomlin and Donnie McClurkin, but now the husband and wife team are taking center stage in their own right

RHY THM IN THE WORD

TY BELLOJESUS JESU

2TY is back again with another awesome song “Jesus Jesu (Sweetest Name)”. The

heartfelt ballad is praise to how awesome and transforming the name of Jesus is.

LISA PAGE BROOKSHEAL THE LAND

3In her latest single, Lisa encourages us to pray for our land as God

wants to heal the land. She delivers this message with her amazing vocals accompanied with the right blend of different background voices.

ERICA CAMPBELLA LITTLE MORE JESUS

4One half of the sister gospel duo Mary Mary

released this single which is worth listening to. A Little More Jesus has a country feel to it and Erica’s lovely vocals are clearly noticed throughout the song. The song makes us recognize how much we need Jesus in every part of our lives.

JAMIE GRACEBEAUTIFUL DAY

5 A great song to start the day with as it

makes you aware of the glory of God and his amazing grace. A love song to God that has a bit of everything in it.

ZACARDI CORTEZ1 on 1

6 This song gets you in the mood to worship. Zacardi

uses the right emotions to deliver the message. A song about having an alone time with God, just both of you shutting out the rest of the world.

WILLIAM MURPHYWITHHOLDING NOTHING

7In Murphy’s usual style, we hear him sing out to God about giving Him all and keeping nothing

back. It’s a slow song whose message would cause one to reflect on the relationship one has with God.

SKILLETRISE

9 A rock fan, then this will do it for you. Bonus songs… Technically they are not new songs

but they just never grow old.

TYE TRIBETTIF HE DID BEFORE

8 One’s feet can hardly stay still when listening

to Tye. Delivering the gospel in a catchy but thought provoking manner is certainly a gift from God.

HEATHER HEADLEYSIMPLY REDEEMED

10 Strong vocals, amazing lyrics… how can one not be moved? Heather

defines what being a Christian who has been redeemed by Christ simply means. Simply Redeemed is a slow song that would get you in the mood for worship.

The quarterly outreach of The Throne Room took place on the 7th June 2014, at the LEA primary

school Kuchingoro, Abuja. Kuchingoro is a bustling community situated just outside the City Gate. While the setting up of the venue and the arranging of items donated was going on, a team went from house to house within the community inviting them for the event. Members of the church had contributed food, clothing, shoes, bags, and packs for the children, bibles and medical supplies .Over 100 people received attention from doctors and medication was given to the sick. The word of God was shared by Pastor Yemi Fadebiyi and 115 people including Muslims gave their lives to Christ; Bibles were given to the new converts. The people were full of joy as they returned to their houses, they came empty handed but left having been blessed physically and spiritually. The Throneroom monthly outreach is an avenue through which the Church takes the gospel out of the church walls to be a blessing to communities within the Federal Capital Territories in Spirit and in Kind. We want to say a big thank you to all who gave of their time, prayers and substance. We look forward to your continued support as we obey the Lord’s command to go out to the world and preach the good news.
