The Theme for the night is: Divine Help you need.
Look at your fellow square in the face and say this is the divine help you need. Psalm 121 v 1-2 I will lift up my eyes onto the hill, from whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.
The first question there is, from whence? Help is on the way; where is this help coming from?
Surely not from man! Psalm 60 v 11 says vain is the help of man, if you are expecting help from man, it doesn't matter who, you are wasting your time.
Why?
James 4 v 14 says man is here today and he is gone tomorrow, it says the life of a man is like a vapor. So even if the man wants to help you, what if he dies? Vain is the help of a man.
Surely you are not expecting help from money, Proverbs 23 v5 tells us that money can develop wings and fly away.
From where is my help coming?
Malachi 3 v 6 says I am the Lord, I change not, my help is coming from the Lord, who does not change, the One who is the same yesterday, today and forever.
Help is on the way; there is help coming for the sick.
Why?
Exodus 15 v 26 says it is the Lord that heals thee, help is coming for the sick because the great physician is on the way.
In Matthew 8 v 1 -3 that Leper who was incurable thought he was going to die a leper, but help came across his way and in a single day the incurable became cured.
And when help is going to come to the sick, it will come unexpectedly that is why before I finish preaching tonight, you can receive your healing today in Jesus name.
In Mark 10 v 46-52 Bartimeaus didn't know when he woke up that morning, he didn't know that his darkness was going to end.
He went about his usual business 'begging' when all of a sudden he heard that Jesus was passing by, he knew at long last help has come.
And I'm believing God for someone here tonight before this night is over the help you have been expecting will come.
Help comes to the sick unexpectedly.
You remember the testimony of one of my sons who had cancer, so advance that they said there was nothing anybody could do for him and the hospital where they took him, they had a room for those who are absolutely hopeless.
So they put him in a room expecting him to die in a couple of days, and I was visiting that town that day. I went there to pray for my son, there were several others in the room; they said there was no hope for them.
I prayed for my son alone, because we are talking of abroad; abroad if you pray for somebody without the fellow asking you to pray for him, he could sue you for harassment.
Call it spiritual harassment, so I pray for my son alone and I left.
That was Saturday, the following Wednesday, they discharged everybody in the room.
Everybody! They were expecting death, but healing came.
There is somebody here tonight too, maybe you have even lost your hope of being healed, receive your healing now in Jesus name.
There is a Divine Help for the barren.
Why?
Because according to John 15 v 1-5 Jesus Christ is the fruitful vine and if you, abide in him, you will become fruitful also.
And when help wants to come for the barren, it comes unexpectedly.
In Genesis 18 v 1-14 Abraham and Sarah didn't know that after they had waited more than twenty five years that help will come. They were in front of their tent when help came.
Now, you have come all the way to this holy mountain before you go home help will come your way.
And those of you who are watching all over the world; because I know you are listening in Australia, Papua New Guinea, all over the world. You might not be able to come here, but tonight help will locate you.
They have mocked Anna, they have tormented her, she was even misunderstood when she was praying and yet help came her way, today help is going to come your way.
But to the barren in particular, I have a word of advice because it has come to my notice that one or two of you are beginning to say maybe God is too late and you are trying to seek help from other sources other than Jesus Christ.
I beg you, stop it.
And I will give you two stories why you must wait for the Lord and the Lord alone!
From 1979 to 1980, there was a sister in the Church, trusting God for the fruit of the womb and we were all praying for her.
We were so few then; everybody knew everybody else. And we were interceding for her.
My wife and I took it upon ourselves specially to pray for her, but you see God has his time table.
Then we moved from Lagos to Ilorin before God brought us back by force to Lagos.
Because when we were leaving Lagos, we never thought we will come back to Lagos.
By the time we returned, we saw our sister, she said "look at me, I am pregnant".
Ah! We were happy and we were dancing, until she told us, "you see somebody advised me to try somewhere else. And what happened?"
"Those people also used the bible, they did this, they did that, they asked me to do this" Are you a child of God you?
You mean you did that? She said, but look at the result am pregnant. That was 1981, the pregnancy is yet to be delivered. Be careful!
I tell you a second story, I won't mention names, because the fellow concerned might be here, and there is no way anybody will know you are the one.
She wanted a child desperately, thought that Jesus was too slow, so she tried another method, this time the baby came and it was a boy, she said
"You see, sit down there those of you praying, praying, you don't want to move around and see".
So she moved around and got a boy. And when the boy I think was about I think about six years old.
One day the boy went into her room, brought out his manhood and said to mama, let us have sex.
The mother said "what did you say?"
The boy said "I say I want to have sex with you" ah, what did you say?, where did you get that from?
And they took the boy to a deliverance minister.
The boy said to the deliverance minister, he said "don't waste your time, I am not possessed, I am demon incarnated"
Help is on the way!
Will you wait for the help of the Almighty?
In the name of the Lord Almighty, I am decreeing that that help will arrive today.
There is a Divine Help for the failure, why?
Because the Strengthener is coming. Philippians 4 v 13 He said I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.
Have you failed again and again, the strengthener is coming, the one who can make you succeed is coming.
One of my boys took for his text John 5 v 2-9 it tells us the story of a man who have been sick for thirty eight years and he had tried again and again to be the first to get into the pool of water troubled by the angel.
For thirty eight years he failed until help came his way, the day the help came, the one who was a failure became a success.
Another one spoke about Luke 5 v 1-7 about Peter that fished all night and failed.
Peter did not fail because he wasn't diligent, he didn't fail because he wasn't hardworking, he didn't fail because he wasn't skillful, he failed because he failed.
But when help came, he succeeded.
Again, I am joining all the prophets who have gone before me tonight, to prophesy to those of you who have failed; help is on the way.
And in the Name that is above any other name you will not fail again.
I think I have shared the testimony, particularly with my children not too long ago I think in Jos.
Just to show you that people don't fail just because they are not hard working, people don't fail just because they are not brilliant, you can be a brilliant student and still fail.
But in the name that is above every other names, all of you my student you won't fail again.
I told them the story; when we talked about mathematics, it is either you know the subject or you don't know it, there is no guess work.
Two plus two is four periods.
And if I ask you what is the square root of two?
You are going to say what did you say sir?
It is either you know it or you don't.
And there was this subject, I knew this particular subject very well, I was teaching my classmates.
When I was in the university and then it was examination time, that particular subject, they asked us to answer five questions out of eight.
I read question number one, blank. Question number two, I couldn't make head and tail out of it. Number three, I didn't understand.
Number four I couldn't get a clue, by now I began to sweat. Five, six, seven, eight, I couldn't see anyone that I could answer.
I said well if I miss it this time round, I better go, after all, they will allow you to come back and have re-seat if it is only one subject.
I know God as always, loved me; I wasn't born again then, but I could feel something saying to me, sat down.
And I sat down, for fifteen minute I just sat down, I couldn't do anything, I couldn't remember anything, then I read the first question again; ah, I know this one, this is so and so formula, I read the second one, I know this, I read the third, the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, the seventh, the eighth.
In the time left, I answered all the eight questions and because I was still a little bit of a rascal, I wrote at the top of the answer sheet to my lecturer, mark any five.
I am saying to all my students here, you will never fail again. Why? Help is on the way.
There is Help for the captive;
Why?
Because John 8 v 36 says the great deliverer is coming, whosoever the son shall set free, shall be free indeed.
Thank you Father, the Lord says there is someone here tonight; He said every night you have had a fight in your dream, now he asked me to tell you, that end tonight.
The Lord says there is someone here tonight; the Lord says just as I did for Peter, I will show you the spot of your breakthrough.
The Lord says there is someone here tonight; He says stop panicking all will end well.
The Lord said there is someone here tonight; He said your families have been going through a series of sorrows, he asked me to assure you no more sorrows.
Mark 5 v 1 -15 the mad man of Gadara was not just bound, he was securely bound.
He wasn't bound by one demon, he wasn't bound by a two or three, he was bound by a legion.
Bible scholar said a legion means at least six thousand.
When six thousand demons are holding one man captive you will know that man is captive.
But he didn't know help is on the way when he woke up that morning, but when the great deliverer came, just one word from him and he was set free.
In the Name that is above every other name, every demons operating in your life will let you go tonight in Jesus name.
I can tell you several stories on that, maybe this one will help someone. You probably have heard it before, some of you.
There was this lady who was married; she didn't know the mother in law was an enemy, she saw the mother in law coming from the market. Ran to meet her, "mama you are welcome!" and mama took a loaf of bread, gave it to her and said "eat that and use it to block your womb", the poor girl said "what kind of joke is that"?
All the same she took the loaf of bread like to say stupidly and eat the bread. And from that day she stops menstruating, years passed, she couldn't have a single child, but then she heard that we are coming to hold a crusade in Oyo, this is a true story not they said and she said if they are coming, I am going to prepare myself for the arrival so she decided to fast and to pray.
And the afternoon before our arrival, she was fasting and was praying and she fell asleep and had a dream.
She saw men wearing white like doctors, came into the room where she lies and open up her womb and they began to draw a rope, at the end of the rope they saw something black like a loaf of bread.
They put it in a bowl, sewed her back and walked out.
When she woke up, I mean of course frightening and shaking, she saw that the bed is soaked and wet with blood; for the first time in a long time she saw that she has started menstruating.
It wasn't long after that the babies begin to come.
It doesn't matter how securely the enemies have banded you, you are getting loose tonight in Jesus name.
I will lift up my eyes to the hills from where comes my help, my help comes from the Lord who made heaven and the earth.
Why am I sure that there are divine help for the sick, for the failure, for the bounded, because the Helper is the one who make the heaven and the earth, he is the one who made you.
And as I have always said, because he made you, he has your spare parts.
So if there is something wrong that the doctor said there is nothing they can do about it, why don't we wait for the help of the helpless the one who made you and see what he will do.
The Bible tells us that he made all things, including the wicked for the day of evil.
Proverb 15 v 4 he said the Lord made all things, including the wicked for the days of evil, so they that have been troubling you, there is own day of recompense have come tonight in Jesus name.
He made you so if there is any part of your body that is not functioning properly, let's refer the matter to the great physician.
I have told you before when a doctor cannot handle your case, he will refer you to a specialist.
When the specialist cannot handle your case he refers you to somebody superior, but as far Jesus is concerned, He never refers a case, when you come to Him you have come to the last bus-stop.
And you are here in his presence tonight and He will solve your problems in Jesus name.
He made angels, He made demons and they all bow to Him, according to Philippians 2 v 9-11 tells us that He has a Name that is above every other name.
So we know that at the mention of the Name of Jesus all knees will bow.
Including all those demons that are binding you, when he commands them they must obey.
He made all things that mean he made the wind and the sea.
In Mark 4 v 35-41 the Bible tells us that when he was sleeping in a boat there was a storm, and the disciples felt they were about to drown, you remember what he did?
He spoke a word and suddenly the storm ceased. And the people came to Him and say what manner of man is this?
That even the wind and the sea obey Him!
There are many of us who are going through one form of a storm or the other, and it is for those of us that he is sending a message; THERE IS A DIVINE HELP FOR YOU!
So that whatever storm might be troubling you right now, in the Name that is above every other name that the storm will end tonight.
I told you I was a bit troubled in the month of May.
Then He told me not to worry son, the wind and the sea still obey me. It doesn't matter the storm, they will still obey.
I'm sure you remember the story I told you of my first cruise? Because He reminded me of that story in the last month.
One of the children said daddy you need to rest, I said yes of course I will love to rest.
He said I know the best thing; if you want to rest go on a cruise.
If you go on a cruise nobody can come and trouble you there, they can't swim the ocean to come and join you.
I said that is a good idea, I have never been on a cruise before and I am telling you if you want an enjoyable holiday go on a cruise, no holiday is better than that of a cruise, those people seems to rejoice at overfeeding you.
So I was there having a nice time; eat in the morning, eat in the afternoon, eat in the evening, they even have buffet at midnight.
And since I have been on holiday, no fasting, no digging deeper, no faith clinic, I was just enjoying myself.
Then suddenly came a storm; the boat we were in was a very huge boat, I mean several stories high, bigger than Sheraton hotel, but when the storm came, the boat became like a toy.
The wave will rise several stories high and then dropped us.
Then we will run and cutleries and cups were flying like bullets across the place. Things got so bad the captain called all of us together and said
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry, storms are in twelve categories; category one is the smallest, category twelve is the worst he said don't worry we are only on category ten".
He said go to your room and stay there".
I said "category ten?" I said "God, what am I doing here?"
Because in my village the biggest river you can not jump over it and now I am in the midst of a ocean in category ten storm.
Everyone of you tonight in a storm, the Almighty God will speak to your storm in Jesus name.
I said "Lord, what do I do now?"
He will speak to you too.
He said "son, when I was here on earth and there was a storm, what did I do?"
I said "the Bible says you were sleeping".
He said "you go and sleep".
I jumped on my bed within two minutes I was fast asleep.
Each time I tell the story people have asked me how could you sleep in that situation?
What else can I do? Jump into the ocean?
I can't swim. Even if I can swim, swim in an ocean?
But I had the advantage of hearing from the Lord, by the time I woke up everything was calm, We were already at port.
In the mighty name of Jesus before you wake up tomorrow, all your storms will be gone in Jesus name.
Why?
He made the wind, He made the sea, the wind and the sea obeyed him.
And then all the fullness of the earth belongs to Him.
I like what one of my boys said just now, he said if the chairman of the local council is the one helping you; the help he can render is limited to the council.
If the governor is the one helping you, the help is limited to the state.
If the president is the one helping you, the help is limited to his country. But if the one helping you is the one who made heaven and earth, then the help is unlimited.
It means wherever you go you will get help. That is why I am getting prophesying to someone here today; from the east you will get help, from the west you will get help.
From the north, you will get help; from the south you will get help. From all over the world you will get help.
Thank you Father, the Lord says there is someone here tonight; he said your recovery will surprise the doctors.
The Lord says there is someone here tonight he said very soon you will have many reasons to laugh.
When you read 1kings 17 v 8-16 when the man of God got to the widow of Zarephat and said give me your last meal and from now you will always have enough meal for your son, for yourself and for me your guest, the man of God was basing his prophecy on the fact that the earth is the Lords and the fullness thereof.
But the Almighty God that can take something that is so little and just keep on multiplying.
One of this so called clever journalists was talking to me and he thought he was going to trap me.
"How can you be asking this poor people to give offerings?"
Please my brothers and my sisters next time somebody calls you poor, tell him he is not talking of you, I have thought you the importance of a name, if they give you a name and you accept that name, that name will be with you forever.
Anytime anybody calls you poor, tell them I am not poor.
I told the fellow I said "thank you, for years people in Nigeria go abroad begging for money
Oh, I am a preacher give me some dollars, I am doing some work for God give me some pounds.
And those who are giving them kept on getting richer and those who are getting remain poor.
I said when my own turn came I made up my mind; the God in America is the God in Nigeria, we will not beg.
In the Name that is above every other name, we will lend to the nations.
But the only way to get out of poverty is to begin to sow from the little we had.
He was asking the question during one of the convention, look at these people by the grace of God, people who came to our convention are fed two times a day, the money we spend on feeding alone; all the offerings cannot even buy the food of one day, all the offerings of the entire week cannot buy the food of one day.
I told him let me show you were they kill a thousand cows a day.
To feed the people, but we encourage the people to give whatever they can because that is the only way to get out of poverty.
When you give little, God will begin to multiply.
The little will begin to multiply, the little will become big, the big will become very big, the very big will become abundant.
In the name that is above every other name very soon those of you that they are calling poor will begin to lend to the nations.
When the man of God said give me that little which you have, he is basing it on the fact that the earth is the Lords and the fullness thereof, and he can take little and keep on multiplying.
So those of you who have very little now, lift up your head high. One of the men who preached before me also said something very beautiful; he said
If you want to know the difference between those who need help, to some God will send somebody and to other when they need help, God will come himself, he said there is a difference between the two.
He said those who will expect help sent from God are those who tell God about their problems.
But those who will expect God himself to come are those who tell their problems about their God.
I like that one that was beautiful! So if you have little, tell the little I serve the all sufficient God.
If you feel pain, tell that pain I serve the great physician. If the enemy tries to shake you, tell the enemy I serve the Lord of host and the Almighty God will show up Himself.
Tonight, in the day you are not even expecting help will come your way.
God can keep your little oil flowing, I know this from experience.
I have told you the story before; I am telling it because of those of you who are hearing it for the first time, I know some of you won't believe it, it doesn't matter, it doesn't change the fact.
I went to preach in the east, I was returning in my Toyota Crown car, I got to Onitsha, there was no fuel, I crossed the bridge to Asaba, no fuel, I said no problem I will get fuel when I get to Ore, because Ore was a depot. By the time I got to Ore, my tank was reading reserve.
I got to Ore no fuel. Lord, what do I do?
And at that time I was still a lecturer in the University of Lagos and I have lectured on Monday.
It was Sunday, what do I do?
And I heard God speak to me. I pray that God will speak to you. "Son, " he said, "take your eyes off the gauge and drive on", yes Lord.
I took my eyes off the gauge drove on reserve from Ore all the way to Surulere, I parked my car before I looked at the gauge and the gauge read empty.
When I told the story somebody said maybe he drove on the blood of Jesus, God will have mercy on you.
All am saying is this, every one of you in need in whatever form, that help will come today in Jesus name.
And then my children have done a very good job on who will get the help. I just want to add one little bit to what they have already said.
The one who will get the help is the one who is willing and obedient.
Thank you father, the Lord said there is someone here tonight, he said your situation now looks like you are totally defeated. He asked me to tell you, you will soon sing the song of victory.
The Lord said there is someone here, He said your cry has come to Me! The Lord says very soon you will see the evidence that I have already answered your prayer.
Isaiah 1 v 19 says if you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the Land, God will not help those who are not willing to be helped.
He will not force Himself on you, He is a gentleman.
Each time I read Revelation 3 v 20 where the Lord says behold I stand at the door and I knock, if any man hears my voice and open the door, I will come in and sup with him and he with me.
Somebody says if He is the Almighty, why doesn't he just kick and open the door, I said He is not an armed robber, He is a gentleman he knocks, if you don't open the door, he goes away, he won't force Himself on you.
You won't believe it, I have seen cases where we are praying for the sick and the sick weren't getting better and we asked.
I know a particular case, when we asked the woman what is going on?
Everything God says we should do we have done, how come you are not getting better? She said "I don't want to be better," "why not?"
She said before, I feel sick when my husband closes in his place of work, he goes to the clubhouse.
Since I became sick, as soon as he finishes from work he rushes back home. She said I want to keep my husband.
We told her you can be well and can still keep your husband.
There are many people you are praying for, you need to ask them why are we not getting results?
If you don't want to be well, God will not force you.
I know a case of a man that was coughing very badly and they call us to come and pray for him.
We said, sir, what is your prayer request?
He said pray that the cough will be going small, small.
Incredible!
If you are willing and obedient then you will eat the good of the land.
God will not help you if you don't want to be helped. Is there anybody here today who will say God, I am willing help me?
You must be willing and you must be obedient, nobody can receive help from the Almighty God who is not willing to obey Him.
I have told us again and again, many at times, in the eagerness of the evangelist to bring in Jesus Christ, he tells you half of the story; come to Jesus Christ he will save your soul.
That is true! Come to Jesus Christ, He will solve all your problems, that is true. But that is not all, in Matthew 11 v 28 that one of my sons quoted which is what the evangelist would have quoted and stopped.
They should have included verses 29& 30 come unto me all that labour and all ye that are heavy laden and I will give you rest, but he didn't stop there. He said take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly.
Don't worry, my yoke is easy my burden is light, but what is he saying, if you come to me you must be willing to come under a new management.
I will not just be your Savior, I must be your Lord also, you must not just come for the blessings you must come for the responsibilities, you must not just be willing you must also be obedient.
He wants to help you, but don't let anybody deceive you; nothing goes for nothing.
You can't receive help from the Lord Jesus Christ and then continue to worship the devil It is not going to happen.
So don't come to Jesus Christ, unless you are willing to be obedient to Him that is why we say you are surrendering your life to Jesus Christ.
That reminds me to bring greetings from all your brothers and sisters in Latin America, we were with them last month and they said I should greet you.
So am delivering their message.
I explained to them like I am explaining to you; don't come forward to surrender your life to Jesus if all you want are the miracles He can give. If you come to Him you must also be willing to obey His commandments, if you are willing to combine the two then there is a divine help for you.
If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the land.
So if there is anyone here tonight, if you are willing and you will be obedient, you want to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, you want Him not only to be your Savior, but to be your Lord; you want Him to wipe away all your sins, you want Him to solve all your problems, but you are also determined that from now on you will obey Him, you can come forward and I will pray for your salvation.
So those of you who are already at the front begin to call on the Almighty God, ask Him to have mercy on you, ask Him to save your soul, tell Him that from now on you will serve Him completely, that He will be your Lord, that you will obey Him in all things, that you will say bye to a life of sins and you will do His will from now henceforth
The rest of us, let's interceded for these people, and pray for them; that the Almighty God who saved our souls will save their souls also.
Let's pray for them, that God will give them a brand new beginning.
Let's intercede for them brethren, that the power that is in the blood of Jesus will wash away all their sins and give them a brand new beginning.
Savior, we just want to bless your name, we want to give you all glory and honor, for this people who have come forward to surrender their lives to you, father you promise that whosoever will come unto you, you will in no wise cast away.
They have come unto you now Father, please receive them in Jesus name. Save their souls today in Jesus name, let your blood wipe away their sins in Jesus name.
My Lord and my Savior, I am praying tonight that as you are saving their souls you will write their names in the book of life and don't let them ever go back into the world of sin.
Father, am praying that from now on anytime they call on you, you will please answer them by fire.
Thank you all Almighty God.
In Jesus mighty name we prayed.
I am rejoicing with you tonight because by the grace of God from now on, every day I will be praying for you, so I am going to need your name, your address and your prayer request.
Very soon you will be receiving miracles and you will know there must be somebody somewhere praying for you and that somebody is me.

Look at your fellow square in the face and say this is the divine help you need. Psalm 121 v 1-2 I will lift up my eyes onto the hill, from whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.
The first question there is, from whence? Help is on the way; where is this help coming from?
Surely not from man! Psalm 60 v 11 says vain is the help of man, if you are expecting help from man, it doesn't matter who, you are wasting your time.
Why?
James 4 v 14 says man is here today and he is gone tomorrow, it says the life of a man is like a vapor. So even if the man wants to help you, what if he dies? Vain is the help of a man.
Surely you are not expecting help from money, Proverbs 23 v5 tells us that money can develop wings and fly away.
From where is my help coming?
Malachi 3 v 6 says I am the Lord, I change not, my help is coming from the Lord, who does not change, the One who is the same yesterday, today and forever.
Help is on the way; there is help coming for the sick.
Why?
Exodus 15 v 26 says it is the Lord that heals thee, help is coming for the sick because the great physician is on the way.
In Matthew 8 v 1 -3 that Leper who was incurable thought he was going to die a leper, but help came across his way and in a single day the incurable became cured.
And when help is going to come to the sick, it will come unexpectedly that is why before I finish preaching tonight, you can receive your healing today in Jesus name.
In Mark 10 v 46-52 Bartimeaus didn't know when he woke up that morning, he didn't know that his darkness was going to end.
He went about his usual business 'begging' when all of a sudden he heard that Jesus was passing by, he knew at long last help has come.
And I'm believing God for someone here tonight before this night is over the help you have been expecting will come.
Help comes to the sick unexpectedly.
You remember the testimony of one of my sons who had cancer, so advance that they said there was nothing anybody could do for him and the hospital where they took him, they had a room for those who are absolutely hopeless.
So they put him in a room expecting him to die in a couple of days, and I was visiting that town that day. I went there to pray for my son, there were several others in the room; they said there was no hope for them.
I prayed for my son alone, because we are talking of abroad; abroad if you pray for somebody without the fellow asking you to pray for him, he could sue you for harassment.
Call it spiritual harassment, so I pray for my son alone and I left.
That was Saturday, the following Wednesday, they discharged everybody in the room.
Everybody! They were expecting death, but healing came.
There is somebody here tonight too, maybe you have even lost your hope of being healed, receive your healing now in Jesus name.
There is a Divine Help for the barren.
Why?
Because according to John 15 v 1-5 Jesus Christ is the fruitful vine and if you, abide in him, you will become fruitful also.
And when help wants to come for the barren, it comes unexpectedly.
In Genesis 18 v 1-14 Abraham and Sarah didn't know that after they had waited more than twenty five years that help will come. They were in front of their tent when help came.
Now, you have come all the way to this holy mountain before you go home help will come your way.
And those of you who are watching all over the world; because I know you are listening in Australia, Papua New Guinea, all over the world. You might not be able to come here, but tonight help will locate you.
They have mocked Anna, they have tormented her, she was even misunderstood when she was praying and yet help came her way, today help is going to come your way.
But to the barren in particular, I have a word of advice because it has come to my notice that one or two of you are beginning to say maybe God is too late and you are trying to seek help from other sources other than Jesus Christ.
I beg you, stop it.
And I will give you two stories why you must wait for the Lord and the Lord alone!
From 1979 to 1980, there was a sister in the Church, trusting God for the fruit of the womb and we were all praying for her.
We were so few then; everybody knew everybody else. And we were interceding for her.
My wife and I took it upon ourselves specially to pray for her, but you see God has his time table.
Then we moved from Lagos to Ilorin before God brought us back by force to Lagos.
Because when we were leaving Lagos, we never thought we will come back to Lagos.
By the time we returned, we saw our sister, she said "look at me, I am pregnant".
Ah! We were happy and we were dancing, until she told us, "you see somebody advised me to try somewhere else. And what happened?"
"Those people also used the bible, they did this, they did that, they asked me to do this" Are you a child of God you?
You mean you did that? She said, but look at the result am pregnant. That was 1981, the pregnancy is yet to be delivered. Be careful!
I tell you a second story, I won't mention names, because the fellow concerned might be here, and there is no way anybody will know you are the one.
She wanted a child desperately, thought that Jesus was too slow, so she tried another method, this time the baby came and it was a boy, she said
"You see, sit down there those of you praying, praying, you don't want to move around and see".
So she moved around and got a boy. And when the boy I think was about I think about six years old.
One day the boy went into her room, brought out his manhood and said to mama, let us have sex.
The mother said "what did you say?"
The boy said "I say I want to have sex with you" ah, what did you say?, where did you get that from?
And they took the boy to a deliverance minister.
The boy said to the deliverance minister, he said "don't waste your time, I am not possessed, I am demon incarnated"
Help is on the way!
Will you wait for the help of the Almighty?
In the name of the Lord Almighty, I am decreeing that that help will arrive today.
There is a Divine Help for the failure, why?
Because the Strengthener is coming. Philippians 4 v 13 He said I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.
Have you failed again and again, the strengthener is coming, the one who can make you succeed is coming.
One of my boys took for his text John 5 v 2-9 it tells us the story of a man who have been sick for thirty eight years and he had tried again and again to be the first to get into the pool of water troubled by the angel.
For thirty eight years he failed until help came his way, the day the help came, the one who was a failure became a success.
Another one spoke about Luke 5 v 1-7 about Peter that fished all night and failed.
Peter did not fail because he wasn't diligent, he didn't fail because he wasn't hardworking, he didn't fail because he wasn't skillful, he failed because he failed.
But when help came, he succeeded.
Again, I am joining all the prophets who have gone before me tonight, to prophesy to those of you who have failed; help is on the way.
And in the Name that is above any other name you will not fail again.
I think I have shared the testimony, particularly with my children not too long ago I think in Jos.
Just to show you that people don't fail just because they are not hard working, people don't fail just because they are not brilliant, you can be a brilliant student and still fail.
But in the name that is above every other names, all of you my student you won't fail again.
I told them the story; when we talked about mathematics, it is either you know the subject or you don't know it, there is no guess work.
Two plus two is four periods.
And if I ask you what is the square root of two?
You are going to say what did you say sir?
It is either you know it or you don't.
And there was this subject, I knew this particular subject very well, I was teaching my classmates.
When I was in the university and then it was examination time, that particular subject, they asked us to answer five questions out of eight.
I read question number one, blank. Question number two, I couldn't make head and tail out of it. Number three, I didn't understand.
Number four I couldn't get a clue, by now I began to sweat. Five, six, seven, eight, I couldn't see anyone that I could answer.
I said well if I miss it this time round, I better go, after all, they will allow you to come back and have re-seat if it is only one subject.
I know God as always, loved me; I wasn't born again then, but I could feel something saying to me, sat down.
And I sat down, for fifteen minute I just sat down, I couldn't do anything, I couldn't remember anything, then I read the first question again; ah, I know this one, this is so and so formula, I read the second one, I know this, I read the third, the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, the seventh, the eighth.
In the time left, I answered all the eight questions and because I was still a little bit of a rascal, I wrote at the top of the answer sheet to my lecturer, mark any five.
I am saying to all my students here, you will never fail again. Why? Help is on the way.
There is Help for the captive;
Why?
Because John 8 v 36 says the great deliverer is coming, whosoever the son shall set free, shall be free indeed.
Thank you Father, the Lord says there is someone here tonight; He said every night you have had a fight in your dream, now he asked me to tell you, that end tonight.
The Lord says there is someone here tonight; the Lord says just as I did for Peter, I will show you the spot of your breakthrough.
The Lord says there is someone here tonight; He says stop panicking all will end well.
The Lord said there is someone here tonight; He said your families have been going through a series of sorrows, he asked me to assure you no more sorrows.
Mark 5 v 1 -15 the mad man of Gadara was not just bound, he was securely bound.
He wasn't bound by one demon, he wasn't bound by a two or three, he was bound by a legion.
Bible scholar said a legion means at least six thousand.
When six thousand demons are holding one man captive you will know that man is captive.
But he didn't know help is on the way when he woke up that morning, but when the great deliverer came, just one word from him and he was set free.
In the Name that is above every other name, every demons operating in your life will let you go tonight in Jesus name.
I can tell you several stories on that, maybe this one will help someone. You probably have heard it before, some of you.
There was this lady who was married; she didn't know the mother in law was an enemy, she saw the mother in law coming from the market. Ran to meet her, "mama you are welcome!" and mama took a loaf of bread, gave it to her and said "eat that and use it to block your womb", the poor girl said "what kind of joke is that"?
All the same she took the loaf of bread like to say stupidly and eat the bread. And from that day she stops menstruating, years passed, she couldn't have a single child, but then she heard that we are coming to hold a crusade in Oyo, this is a true story not they said and she said if they are coming, I am going to prepare myself for the arrival so she decided to fast and to pray.
And the afternoon before our arrival, she was fasting and was praying and she fell asleep and had a dream.
She saw men wearing white like doctors, came into the room where she lies and open up her womb and they began to draw a rope, at the end of the rope they saw something black like a loaf of bread.
They put it in a bowl, sewed her back and walked out.
When she woke up, I mean of course frightening and shaking, she saw that the bed is soaked and wet with blood; for the first time in a long time she saw that she has started menstruating.
It wasn't long after that the babies begin to come.
It doesn't matter how securely the enemies have banded you, you are getting loose tonight in Jesus name.
I will lift up my eyes to the hills from where comes my help, my help comes from the Lord who made heaven and the earth.
Why am I sure that there are divine help for the sick, for the failure, for the bounded, because the Helper is the one who make the heaven and the earth, he is the one who made you.
And as I have always said, because he made you, he has your spare parts.
So if there is something wrong that the doctor said there is nothing they can do about it, why don't we wait for the help of the helpless the one who made you and see what he will do.
The Bible tells us that he made all things, including the wicked for the day of evil.
Proverb 15 v 4 he said the Lord made all things, including the wicked for the days of evil, so they that have been troubling you, there is own day of recompense have come tonight in Jesus name.
He made you so if there is any part of your body that is not functioning properly, let's refer the matter to the great physician.
I have told you before when a doctor cannot handle your case, he will refer you to a specialist.
When the specialist cannot handle your case he refers you to somebody superior, but as far Jesus is concerned, He never refers a case, when you come to Him you have come to the last bus-stop.
And you are here in his presence tonight and He will solve your problems in Jesus name.
He made angels, He made demons and they all bow to Him, according to Philippians 2 v 9-11 tells us that He has a Name that is above every other name.
So we know that at the mention of the Name of Jesus all knees will bow.
Including all those demons that are binding you, when he commands them they must obey.
He made all things that mean he made the wind and the sea.
In Mark 4 v 35-41 the Bible tells us that when he was sleeping in a boat there was a storm, and the disciples felt they were about to drown, you remember what he did?
He spoke a word and suddenly the storm ceased. And the people came to Him and say what manner of man is this?
That even the wind and the sea obey Him!
There are many of us who are going through one form of a storm or the other, and it is for those of us that he is sending a message; THERE IS A DIVINE HELP FOR YOU!
So that whatever storm might be troubling you right now, in the Name that is above every other name that the storm will end tonight.
I told you I was a bit troubled in the month of May.
Then He told me not to worry son, the wind and the sea still obey me. It doesn't matter the storm, they will still obey.
I'm sure you remember the story I told you of my first cruise? Because He reminded me of that story in the last month.
One of the children said daddy you need to rest, I said yes of course I will love to rest.
He said I know the best thing; if you want to rest go on a cruise.
If you go on a cruise nobody can come and trouble you there, they can't swim the ocean to come and join you.
I said that is a good idea, I have never been on a cruise before and I am telling you if you want an enjoyable holiday go on a cruise, no holiday is better than that of a cruise, those people seems to rejoice at overfeeding you.
So I was there having a nice time; eat in the morning, eat in the afternoon, eat in the evening, they even have buffet at midnight.
And since I have been on holiday, no fasting, no digging deeper, no faith clinic, I was just enjoying myself.
Then suddenly came a storm; the boat we were in was a very huge boat, I mean several stories high, bigger than Sheraton hotel, but when the storm came, the boat became like a toy.
The wave will rise several stories high and then dropped us.
Then we will run and cutleries and cups were flying like bullets across the place. Things got so bad the captain called all of us together and said
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry, storms are in twelve categories; category one is the smallest, category twelve is the worst he said don't worry we are only on category ten".
He said go to your room and stay there".
I said "category ten?" I said "God, what am I doing here?"
Because in my village the biggest river you can not jump over it and now I am in the midst of a ocean in category ten storm.
Everyone of you tonight in a storm, the Almighty God will speak to your storm in Jesus name.
I said "Lord, what do I do now?"
He will speak to you too.
He said "son, when I was here on earth and there was a storm, what did I do?"
I said "the Bible says you were sleeping".
He said "you go and sleep".
I jumped on my bed within two minutes I was fast asleep.
Each time I tell the story people have asked me how could you sleep in that situation?
What else can I do? Jump into the ocean?
I can't swim. Even if I can swim, swim in an ocean?
But I had the advantage of hearing from the Lord, by the time I woke up everything was calm, We were already at port.
In the mighty name of Jesus before you wake up tomorrow, all your storms will be gone in Jesus name.
Why?
He made the wind, He made the sea, the wind and the sea obeyed him.
And then all the fullness of the earth belongs to Him.
I like what one of my boys said just now, he said if the chairman of the local council is the one helping you; the help he can render is limited to the council.
If the governor is the one helping you, the help is limited to the state.
If the president is the one helping you, the help is limited to his country. But if the one helping you is the one who made heaven and earth, then the help is unlimited.
It means wherever you go you will get help. That is why I am getting prophesying to someone here today; from the east you will get help, from the west you will get help.
From the north, you will get help; from the south you will get help. From all over the world you will get help.
Thank you Father, the Lord says there is someone here tonight; he said your recovery will surprise the doctors.
The Lord says there is someone here tonight he said very soon you will have many reasons to laugh.
When you read 1kings 17 v 8-16 when the man of God got to the widow of Zarephat and said give me your last meal and from now you will always have enough meal for your son, for yourself and for me your guest, the man of God was basing his prophecy on the fact that the earth is the Lords and the fullness thereof.
But the Almighty God that can take something that is so little and just keep on multiplying.
One of this so called clever journalists was talking to me and he thought he was going to trap me.
"How can you be asking this poor people to give offerings?"
Please my brothers and my sisters next time somebody calls you poor, tell him he is not talking of you, I have thought you the importance of a name, if they give you a name and you accept that name, that name will be with you forever.
Anytime anybody calls you poor, tell them I am not poor.
I told the fellow I said "thank you, for years people in Nigeria go abroad begging for money
Oh, I am a preacher give me some dollars, I am doing some work for God give me some pounds.
And those who are giving them kept on getting richer and those who are getting remain poor.
I said when my own turn came I made up my mind; the God in America is the God in Nigeria, we will not beg.
In the Name that is above every other name, we will lend to the nations.
But the only way to get out of poverty is to begin to sow from the little we had.
He was asking the question during one of the convention, look at these people by the grace of God, people who came to our convention are fed two times a day, the money we spend on feeding alone; all the offerings cannot even buy the food of one day, all the offerings of the entire week cannot buy the food of one day.
I told him let me show you were they kill a thousand cows a day.
To feed the people, but we encourage the people to give whatever they can because that is the only way to get out of poverty.
When you give little, God will begin to multiply.
The little will begin to multiply, the little will become big, the big will become very big, the very big will become abundant.
In the name that is above every other name very soon those of you that they are calling poor will begin to lend to the nations.
When the man of God said give me that little which you have, he is basing it on the fact that the earth is the Lords and the fullness thereof, and he can take little and keep on multiplying.
So those of you who have very little now, lift up your head high. One of the men who preached before me also said something very beautiful; he said
If you want to know the difference between those who need help, to some God will send somebody and to other when they need help, God will come himself, he said there is a difference between the two.
He said those who will expect help sent from God are those who tell God about their problems.
But those who will expect God himself to come are those who tell their problems about their God.
I like that one that was beautiful! So if you have little, tell the little I serve the all sufficient God.
If you feel pain, tell that pain I serve the great physician. If the enemy tries to shake you, tell the enemy I serve the Lord of host and the Almighty God will show up Himself.
Tonight, in the day you are not even expecting help will come your way.
God can keep your little oil flowing, I know this from experience.
I have told you the story before; I am telling it because of those of you who are hearing it for the first time, I know some of you won't believe it, it doesn't matter, it doesn't change the fact.
I went to preach in the east, I was returning in my Toyota Crown car, I got to Onitsha, there was no fuel, I crossed the bridge to Asaba, no fuel, I said no problem I will get fuel when I get to Ore, because Ore was a depot. By the time I got to Ore, my tank was reading reserve.
I got to Ore no fuel. Lord, what do I do?
And at that time I was still a lecturer in the University of Lagos and I have lectured on Monday.
It was Sunday, what do I do?
And I heard God speak to me. I pray that God will speak to you. "Son, " he said, "take your eyes off the gauge and drive on", yes Lord.
I took my eyes off the gauge drove on reserve from Ore all the way to Surulere, I parked my car before I looked at the gauge and the gauge read empty.
When I told the story somebody said maybe he drove on the blood of Jesus, God will have mercy on you.
All am saying is this, every one of you in need in whatever form, that help will come today in Jesus name.
And then my children have done a very good job on who will get the help. I just want to add one little bit to what they have already said.
The one who will get the help is the one who is willing and obedient.
Thank you father, the Lord said there is someone here tonight, he said your situation now looks like you are totally defeated. He asked me to tell you, you will soon sing the song of victory.
The Lord said there is someone here, He said your cry has come to Me! The Lord says very soon you will see the evidence that I have already answered your prayer.
Isaiah 1 v 19 says if you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the Land, God will not help those who are not willing to be helped.
He will not force Himself on you, He is a gentleman.
Each time I read Revelation 3 v 20 where the Lord says behold I stand at the door and I knock, if any man hears my voice and open the door, I will come in and sup with him and he with me.
Somebody says if He is the Almighty, why doesn't he just kick and open the door, I said He is not an armed robber, He is a gentleman he knocks, if you don't open the door, he goes away, he won't force Himself on you.
You won't believe it, I have seen cases where we are praying for the sick and the sick weren't getting better and we asked.
I know a particular case, when we asked the woman what is going on?
Everything God says we should do we have done, how come you are not getting better? She said "I don't want to be better," "why not?"
She said before, I feel sick when my husband closes in his place of work, he goes to the clubhouse.
Since I became sick, as soon as he finishes from work he rushes back home. She said I want to keep my husband.
We told her you can be well and can still keep your husband.
There are many people you are praying for, you need to ask them why are we not getting results?
If you don't want to be well, God will not force you.
I know a case of a man that was coughing very badly and they call us to come and pray for him.
We said, sir, what is your prayer request?
He said pray that the cough will be going small, small.
Incredible!
If you are willing and obedient then you will eat the good of the land.
God will not help you if you don't want to be helped. Is there anybody here today who will say God, I am willing help me?
You must be willing and you must be obedient, nobody can receive help from the Almighty God who is not willing to obey Him.
I have told us again and again, many at times, in the eagerness of the evangelist to bring in Jesus Christ, he tells you half of the story; come to Jesus Christ he will save your soul.
That is true! Come to Jesus Christ, He will solve all your problems, that is true. But that is not all, in Matthew 11 v 28 that one of my sons quoted which is what the evangelist would have quoted and stopped.
They should have included verses 29& 30 come unto me all that labour and all ye that are heavy laden and I will give you rest, but he didn't stop there. He said take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly.
Don't worry, my yoke is easy my burden is light, but what is he saying, if you come to me you must be willing to come under a new management.
I will not just be your Savior, I must be your Lord also, you must not just come for the blessings you must come for the responsibilities, you must not just be willing you must also be obedient.
He wants to help you, but don't let anybody deceive you; nothing goes for nothing.
You can't receive help from the Lord Jesus Christ and then continue to worship the devil It is not going to happen.
So don't come to Jesus Christ, unless you are willing to be obedient to Him that is why we say you are surrendering your life to Jesus Christ.
That reminds me to bring greetings from all your brothers and sisters in Latin America, we were with them last month and they said I should greet you.
So am delivering their message.
I explained to them like I am explaining to you; don't come forward to surrender your life to Jesus if all you want are the miracles He can give. If you come to Him you must also be willing to obey His commandments, if you are willing to combine the two then there is a divine help for you.
If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the land.
So if there is anyone here tonight, if you are willing and you will be obedient, you want to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, you want Him not only to be your Savior, but to be your Lord; you want Him to wipe away all your sins, you want Him to solve all your problems, but you are also determined that from now on you will obey Him, you can come forward and I will pray for your salvation.
So those of you who are already at the front begin to call on the Almighty God, ask Him to have mercy on you, ask Him to save your soul, tell Him that from now on you will serve Him completely, that He will be your Lord, that you will obey Him in all things, that you will say bye to a life of sins and you will do His will from now henceforth
The rest of us, let's interceded for these people, and pray for them; that the Almighty God who saved our souls will save their souls also.
Let's pray for them, that God will give them a brand new beginning.
Let's intercede for them brethren, that the power that is in the blood of Jesus will wash away all their sins and give them a brand new beginning.
Savior, we just want to bless your name, we want to give you all glory and honor, for this people who have come forward to surrender their lives to you, father you promise that whosoever will come unto you, you will in no wise cast away.
They have come unto you now Father, please receive them in Jesus name. Save their souls today in Jesus name, let your blood wipe away their sins in Jesus name.
My Lord and my Savior, I am praying tonight that as you are saving their souls you will write their names in the book of life and don't let them ever go back into the world of sin.
Father, am praying that from now on anytime they call on you, you will please answer them by fire.
Thank you all Almighty God.
In Jesus mighty name we prayed.
I am rejoicing with you tonight because by the grace of God from now on, every day I will be praying for you, so I am going to need your name, your address and your prayer request.
Very soon you will be receiving miracles and you will know there must be somebody somewhere praying for you and that somebody is me.
