BIBLE TEXT: 2 KINGS 6: 8-17
OPENING PRAYER
Almighty God, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the God of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) – We Worship You.
We Thank You for the Great Things that You are doing in Europe and we Thank You for Greater Things that You will yet do.
Please accept our Worship in Jesus Name.
My Father and my God, I commit all Your Children who Graduated from the Bible College to Your Hands; Please don’t let them leave here with Ordinary Certificates, let Your Presence go with them and use them Mightily for Your Glory.
As for all those People that You have Ordained; every Proclamation that has been made concerning them, Father establish them.
Let it be well with them.
And those who are looking forward to a Day when their own Ordination will come; Father hasten the Day.
Those who has been Ordained long ago that You have kept till now; Father Please keep them till the very End.
And even before we leave here my Father and my God; the very Best that You can give to any Man give to all of us.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Well, let Someone shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
You may Please be seated!
I know that many of us will want to say: Thank You to God for what He has done – And we will do that at the end of the Service.
I want to rejoice especially for all those who Graduated Today from the Bible College because it is one thing to start but it is another thing to finish.
Thank God that the Almighty God has helped you to finish.
And you will continue to finish well – Amen.
I rejoice with those who has been Ordained Today – I’m sure that you have heard me say that when I was Ordained fifty (50) Years ago, for a long time; I didn’t take my bath.
I was so jealous of that Oil on my Head that I didn’t want to wash it off.
It took me a while before I realised that Ordinary soap and water cannot wash it away.
The only thing that I know can wash away that Anointing is sin.
And so, I rejoice with those of you who has been Ordained Today – Don’t follow my Example and say that you are not going to take your bath.
I rejoice with you – Congratulations!
You know, I am not just your dad; I am also your Coach and so I need to say one thing – I think it is long that I say it last and so I want to say it again.
There is no where in the Bible where it says: “Thou shall not wear a wigs”.
That’s why I have stopped talking about wigs.
But then, you come for Ordination with “Heavy Wigs” and they pour the Oil – And the wigs get Anointed and your Head remains dry?
You know the implications – I have seen all manners of wigs since I came in.
And some of us seems to have forgotten that the Bible says: “Let your Moderation be known unto all Men” (DMC NOTES: Philippians 4:5).
*You must Stand Out in Moderation – All Men must say that your own is too much!*
That’s what they said about me.
You know several years ago in Nigeria, it became Fashionable if you are a Man of God to wear a “Flowing Agbada”.
Some of the Old People here will remember.
It became Fashionable to try to Outshine the Politicians in the way you dress.
But then I used to dress and I still dress like that; as simply as I can.
If you see me with a long Sleeves Jacket here, it is because of your cold.
And one of the big Man of God then said: I like everything about you except the way you dress like an Hunter.
And I told him Politely – I said: I am not an Hunter but a Soldier. I dress like a Soldier.
Today by the Grace of God, People are dressing more a little like me.
Like I told the Young Ones a couple of days ago (DMC NOTES: During the RCCG Continental 9 Workers’ Rally 2025 on Tuesday 16th September 2025 – You can get to read the Full details on the Label of DMC); there is something that is called “Northern Stars”.
That when you go into the Ocean in the Olden Days and you cannot locate the Direction you came from anymore – You look at the North at Night and there you will see the Northern Stars. Wherever they are Pointing, that is the North.
*One thing that I didn’t tell them is that there is something Peculiar about the North.
You read your Bible and it will tell you that Promotion does not come from the East, it doesn’t come from the West, it doesn’t come from the South – And it keeps quiet and didn’t say anything about the North.
It only went on to say that: But God is the Promoter!
*DMC NOTES: Psalms 75: 6-7
So where is it that it doesn’t talk anything about? The North!
*When you see People like me and you think that we are ancient; we are trying to be like the “Ancient of Days”.
*Let your Moderation be Known – Be Outstanding in Moderation!
*Let People look at you – They may say that you are Legalistic!
NOTES: To be Legalistic means: Strict, Literal or Excessive Conformity to the Law or to a Religious or Moral Code.*
I am not making Rules and I am not saying that Particularly this is how you should dress – I have stopped saying that long ago.
I know sooner or later – When you turn right, you turn Left and you turn backwards as we used to do with Facecaps. And it gets to a Stage when you don’t know where to turn anymore.
Then you will come to those of us you called “The Ancient” and you will find Direction.
Thank Gid for the Young Ones who got Ordained before they were forty (40) Years ago – Congratulations!
I was less than forty (40) Years Old when I got Ordained.
And Today by the Grace of God, I am still Marching on!
Our Bible Text Today is from 2 Kings, reading from Verse 6 to Verse 17 – if you want to get the Full Story. But I will read just from Verse 15 to 17:
2 Kings 6:15-17:
15. And when the Servant of the Man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with Horses and Chariots. And his Servant said unto him, Alas, my Master! how shall we do?
16. And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
17. And Elisha Prayed, and said, LORD, I Pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the Young Man; and he saw: and, behold, the Mountain was full of Horses and Chariots of fire round about Elisha.
*My sons said something just before I came up: That those of you who are Ordained Today, you are really having an Experience that could be called “Divine Intervention”.*
*One of the Greatest Intervention that you can have from God is to be Anointed – Because:*
1. The Anointed is Promoted.
*The more the Anointing, the more the Promotion!
I. So you have Deacon/Deaconess Anointed by the Laying On of Hands.
II. Assistant Pastors Anointed with Oil and the Laying On of Hands.
III. And then the Full Pastor Anointed with a different kind of Oil from that of the Assistant Pastors.
Because I know that some of you may think that Oil is Oil.
One of these days, we will have the opportunity to discuss this and then you will know that there is a difference between Anointing for Deacon/Deaconess, Anointing for Assistant Pastor and the Anointing for the Full Pastor.
*Promotion is in degrees and it comes with Anointing!
I. In 1 Samuel 16: 11-13; when David was Anointed, he was Anointed King among his Brethren.
The only People who knew that: Here is a King are his Relatives.
II. By the time we get to 2 Samuel 2:4; he was Anointed a Second Time – And this Time, as King of Judah.
He is no longer King among the Brethren, but King over a Tribe.
III. By the time you get to 2 Samuel 5: 1-3; he was Anointed again – This time, King over Israel.
*So from being Anointed as King among his Brethren, to King over Judah and then to King over Israel.*
… The Anointed is Promoted!
*So, all of you who has been Anointed before Inclusive those who are Anointed Today – Congratulations on your Promotion!*
2. The Anointed is Protected.
In Psalm 105: 14-15, the Almighty God said: Hey, touch not my Anointed, do my Propbets no harm.
*Those of you who are friends of the People who has been Ordained Today; be careful how you handle them from now on – It is not the same Person who came in that is going out.*
… The Anointed is Divinely Protected!
*Even if the Anointed offends you, be careful how you handle him/her.*
You remembered the time that King Saul was chasing David about and wanting to kill him.
And then, he went into one little cave to ease himself and the Colleagues of David said: Ha, the Day has come to kill him because David was inside the same cave.
David said: No, I can’t kill the Anointed. But to let him know that I have been here, I will cut a little bit of his dress.
The Bible says that David has an Heart Attack for just cutting off the Cloth of the Anointed.
… The Bible said that his Heart smote him.
NOTES: 1 Samuel 24: 1-7*
*Do you know what smote is? To give you a really nasty blow.*
He had a Heart Attack – Thank God that he didn’t die.
… The Anointed is Protected – You might not see it, but the Protection is there.
3. The Anointed is Defended.
From the Bible Text (2 Kings 6: 8-17) – The King got annoyed when he understood that every Secrets in his Palace is being revealed to Elisha.
Where is he? And they said that he is somewhere here. He said let us go and get him.
But do you know what is interesting here?
He sent an Army – Horses and Chariots to arrest one Man.
What does that tells you? Even the devil knows that the Anointed is under heavy Guard.
Some Years before then, I think one King got angry with Elijah and he wanted to arrest him – He sent fifty (50) Soldiers and a Captain to arrest one Man who has no sword.
And when those People didn’t return – And whether you liked it or not, I like Elijah as that boy can be tough.
The Captain came and said: Man of God, come down as you are under arrest?
He (Elijah) said: Roast! – I like him.
Immediately, the Captain and his fifty (50) Soldiers became ashes – That’s Power Men!
NOTES: 2 Kings 1: 1-10*
People like you don’t know the Value of that kind of Power.
People like me who had to go about all Night in my Blessed Nation with Boko Haram and whatever – People wondered: How can you be travelling everywhere even at Night whenever you wanted to.
Ha, let them come – There is a Power that can roast.
But in the case of Elisha, the King says that boy has the Double Portion of the Anointing of his Oga (Elijah) – Fifty (50) Soldiers won’t do and so he sent a whole Army.
And then, what did he discovered?
There was another Army – This time a tougher one that is surrounding Elisha.
I mean the Army was sent at Night.
That is why those of you who sleep throughout the Night, you need to learn how to Pray once a while at Night because your Guards are more attentive at Night than during the Day.
When the Young Man came out and looked around in the Morning – Hey, w whole Host of Army has surrounded him and his Master. He ran in and said: Master, what shall we do?
Oga says relax Men – Those who are with us are more than who has been with them.
The boy said that you are sitting inside the Tent – You don’t what is happening outside of.
Elisha says alright, Please Daddy open his eyes.
And the boy eyes were opened and he saw Horses and Chariots of Fire surrounding them.
*I Pray Today that God will open your eyes – Amen!*
I think that the boy went out now and said: You want to fight? Come on, we are waiting for you.
… The Anointed is Heavily Defended – Not a joking matter o.
The boy looked at the crowd outside and inside and say: Alright, let us fight.
4. The Anointed is Heavily Equipped.
*Those of you who has been Anointed Today, you may not know it but you are no longer what you used to be.*
You see because the Bible says in Acts 10:38 – It says: How God Anointed Jesus Christ of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with Power who went about doing Good and Healing all that were Oppressed of the devil for God was with Him.
Those of you who has just been Anointed, I want you to Challenge the devil – And tell him to send as many Sick People as much as Possible to you. Tell him that you will deal with the situation.
I think that Somebody was making an Announcement and said: There is an Ambulance outside.
You won’t be in the Ambulance except you want to go to the Hospital to go and free everybody there.
That will come to Past – Amen!
You see because in Acts 1 8; the Bible says that you will receive Power when the Holy Ghost is come upon you.
That is what God said – God will never lie. You may not feel it.
The Bible did not say that: “The Just shall live by Faith” (DMC NOTES: Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11 and Hebrews 10:38).
*All you need to do is to believe the Word of God – The Just shall live by Faith*
I remembered several years ago – More than forty (40) Years now; when I was in Ilorin (NOTES: Capital City of Kwara State Nigeria) Lecturing at the University of Ilorin and Pastoring our Little Church there.
And I was Praying one Night there – God gave me Power as I need Power to do this work.
And that Night, God spoke to me – Have you been Baptised in the Holy Spirit? I said Yes.
Is it not written that you shall receive Power – But I can’t feel it?
God said that: But my Word is Settled – I said I know.
Use the Power that you already got!
Okay sir! Next time that I see Somebody who is Sick, I am going to lay hands on the Fellow and show them that I have Power.
The following day, a woman came to me – Somebody sent a woman with a baby that has been rejected from the Hospital because the Child has not slept for quite a while.
So the Doctors said that there is no need waiting in the Hospital – Just go home as we have done our Best.
And then Someone said: My Pastor is there – Take the Child to the Pastor, he will Pray for the Child and all will be well.
I didn’t know why the Fellow did not Pray but want to get me into trouble.
And so, they brought the Child and I said: Oh God, what am I going to do now?
God spoke to me and said: Last Night you said that any Sick Fellow, you will Pray.
I am not talking about the one rejected by the Hospital – I’m thinking of Someone with a little Headache.
But there was no where to run as the mother had already pushed the baby into my hands.
And as I began to Pray – Almost as I say: “In the Name of Jesus Christ”; the Child went limp.
I didn’t know that the Child fell asleep – I said that I am in trouble.
You know Gid will meet you at your Level of Faith – He didn’t wait for me to Pray a long Prayer.
That will be your Testimony too – Amen.
5. The Anointed will be held Accountable for the Anointing.
Why? The Bible said so now.
Luke 12:48 – To whom much is given, much will be required.
Do you know that there are things that you can do that you can get away with that if I try it as the General Overseer, God will deal with me.
How many of you will love to be Special in the Hand of God?
How many of you will like to be a Favourite of the Most High God?
How many of you will want His Anointing upon your Life to Overflow?
You really want that? Congratulations as you will get it – Amen!
And then, you will get the Responsibilities that goes along with it.
I have heard some of you telling what is called “White Lies”; or “Business Lies”.

You will get that Anointing and then try a “White Lie” or “Business Lie” then you will know that you ate serving a God who is one hundred Percent (100%) Holy.
Let me just give you one illustration because of time:
I travelled to Ilesha in the Western Part of Nigeria and I came back and then decided to go and pay my father-in-the-Lord a visit.
And I was living in Surulere Lagos State and he was living in another Part of Lagos.
As I was going, I remembered that he has taught us that you don’t go to the Man of God empty handed and I had Nothing to give him.
As soon as I gave him the oranges, he asked Somebody to come and begin to Peel.
They peeled the first one and as he began to suck.
He said that this is very delicious; you bought it on the way?
Now the Question he was asking was: You bought it on the way coming from Ilesha? I said Yes sir.
And immediately God grabbed me and said that you have lied because you bought the orange from the Roadside in Surulere and not Ilesha.
So I said to God – What is the difference? Roadside is Roadside, whether Roadside from Ilesha or Roadside from Surulere.
And I said: In any case, how does it affect the Sweetneas of the orange?
God said: Son, you have lied. You understand the Question and you gave a wrong answer.
When the Holy Spirit won’t let me rest, I said: Papa, you asked a Question just now about where I bought the orange from? He said Yes.
And I said that I lied – I bought it from the Roadside in Surulere.
Papa laughed – Looked at me and said: Hmm, Holy Spirit!
You want God to deal with you like that? So that when you speak, we know that you are speaking the Truth, the whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth.
So that even your Colleagues will say that your own is too much?
*Then I Pray for you: That Level of Anointing where even before you Pray He will answer; receive it in Jesus Name – Amen!*
Let me consider Moses – God loved Moses!
The Bible says: He spoke to Moses mouth to mouth (NOTES: Numbers 12:8).
God said that if I want to talk to any Prophet among you, I either talk to him in Dreams or Visions.
But for Moses, no Parables – I say it as clear as it is.
But Moses made just one Mistake and God dealt with him.
*The Anointed – Congratulations:*
â Congratulations that you are Promoted.
â Congratulations that you are Protected.
â Congratulations that you are Defended.
â Congratulations that you are Equipped.
*But to whom much is given, much will be required!
*ALTAR CALL*
I don’t expect anybody to be here who is not already Born Again.
But you never can tell – Somebody might have come to rejoice with us that is yet to be Born Again.
If you know that God will be so Strict in dealing with those who are His own, how much more will He deal with those who are not His Own?
So, if you are not God’s Own – You are not thoroughly Born Again or you are Pretending to be Born Again but you are just living the Life of Someone that is far from being a Child of God.
Maybe you can come forward so that we can settle the issue of your Salvation.
I will count from one (1) to four (4) – If you are not absolutely sure that your own Salvation is the kind that will not tolerate sin; come and let’s Pray together.
Let me ask God to give you the kind of Salvation that He gave me.
He us Calling you and the Choice is yours!
I am counting now:
Those if you infront, Please go ahead and ask Him for that kind of Salvation:
That will not tolerate any form of sin.
That wants to be a Child of God in every areas of Life – Free of every form of sins and living a Life of Absolute Holiness.
That God should help you to have that kind of Salvation.
Thank You Father!
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!
*PRAYER FOR SALVATION
My Father and my God, I Thank You for Your Words and I Thank You for the Message of Today.
Thank You for this Very Special People that has decided that they don’t care what anybody may say but they want Genuine Salvation.
Father, Please receive them, and save their Souls.
Oh Father, the kind of Salvation that You gave me, give to them.
From Today onwards, let them hate sin with a Passion.
You Promised Lord that if we Love Righteousness and we hate Iniquities, You will anoint us with the Oil of Gladness above all our Fellows.
Father, fulfill that for them.
And I Pray that in Your Kingdom, I will see them there.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!
God Bless You!
Well, you want to Pray one more Prayer.
I told some People I spoke to before comimg here that the first time God introduced Himself to Man, he calls Himself “Jehovah El-Shaddai” – The God who is More Than Enough (DMC NOTES: Genesis 17:1).
And I said that Bible Scholars said “Jehovah El-Shaddai” means “Jehovah, your Mother’s Breast”.
In other words, when you are sucking Milk from your Mother’s Breast, you are the one who will say Enough.
And Mama will say: No Problem, anytime you want, I am here.
So I told them that inspite of the Miraculous Things God did during The RCCG UK Festival of Life 2025 on Friday, 19th September 2025 – He is still ready to give you more.
So there might be some things you forgot to ask on Friday – Things that you suppose to ask for but you didn’t ask for.
God is willing to give you – He is always Standing by.
And then I told them that what happened at the Wedding at Cana of Galilee shows you that God reserves the Best till the Last (DMC NOTES: John 2: 1-11).
So no matter how Good what you have already received, He can give you something better.
So you will be Praying these Prayers in a moment.
But I want us tied that to our Thanksgiving.
If you want to say Thank You to Jesus Christ for what He has done in your Life Particularly Today.
You can ask for an Envelope – Put your Thanksgiving Offerings there and then we will lift it up to God as we Pray that Special Prayer!!!
Thank you so much for staying all through to read.
