The
sermon of the man of God, Prophet T.B. Joshua at the Sunday Service on
October 19, 2014 centered on this very symbolic subject. Having
variously affirmed his adoration for the Biblical concept of truth, the
man of God laid emphasis on this central Christian principle. Addressing
the usually receptive and inspired congregation, the man of God stated
that: “It is only truth that can see us through. Even our Lord, Jesus
Christ cannot do anything against the truth because He, Himself is
truth. He is the Creator of Heaven and earth. He has no beginning; He
has no end. You have a beginning and you have an end. Stop fighting the
truth because truth does not lose the battle; God does not lose
battles”.
Speaking further, the man of God said that the Word of God is the only acceptable standard for understanding the truth.

While
admonishing the congregation to strive to make the Word of God a part
of their lives, he also posited that it is only by so doing that they
can be set free: “Knowing facts about Jesus cannot change your
relationship with Him. If you want to know the truth, go to your Bible.
Make the Bible your standard because only that can set you free. Take
time to splash around in the Word, to absorb it, to imbibe it and to
gather it in. It must be an integral part of your being”.
Amplifying further the invaluable power in the Word of God, Prophet
T.B. Joshua highlighted the far-reaching impact it can make on the lives
of Christians who make it an integral part of their lives: “His Word
has healing power, converting power and a purifying power. The Word can
keep one from error and sin. If you say your heart is troubled, His Word
rejoices the heart; it gladdens the heart. His Word is so profitable.
His Word is so enduring”. In his famous style of backing up his sermons
with Biblical Scriptures for the sake of expressing their practicality
and applicability in today’s Christian living, the man of God drew the
attention of the now engrossed congregation to the words of Jesus Christ
Himself concerning the healing power of the Word in John 15:3 – “You
are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you”.

Earlier
on that Sunday, Wise Man Racine enlightened the congregation with a
spiritually uplifting message titled, HOLD ON TO GOD. The Wise Man’s
message made an immediate spiritual impact as it related the prevailing
universal crises to the doors of everyone’s particular experience.
According to him, “Life is a battlefield and there are many battles to
be won”. He also stressed that Christians must not forget to testify to
God’s goodness, kindness and mercy each time He gives us victory in any
battle.
He went further to exhort the congregation to always see God as their
greatest source by giving all glory unto Him, observing that man is
incapable of achieving anything without God on his side: “The best man
in the world holds his integrity no longer than God upholds him in it.
The best man in the world can only maintain his position and honour as
long as God keeps him in it.”
He emphasized that we should always hold on to God, knowing that “beyond
earthly sorrow is the joy of Heaven”. Adding that we should live in the
fear of the Lord more than the fear of man, he concluded that this
precept “should be the guiding principle behind every Christian’s
faith”.

After
praying for the sick and afflicted at The SCOAN Prayer Line, the man of
God led the congregation and viewers around the world in a powerful
time of mass prayer. Everything that was commanded on earth was
commanded in Heaven as prison doors were opened and chains were loosed.
Every religious spirit, spirit of doubt, unbelief, error and heresy was
commanded out, in the name of Jesus Christ.

As they prayed along with Prophet T.B. Joshua, the congregation released
themselves from every ancestral spirit and spirit of their forefathers
that had tormented them. They confessed freedom and victory in Christ
Jesus, knowing that the truth had won the battle.
Next, the Anointing Water was ministered on all present, being used as a
medium to sanctify and purify their spirits, souls and bodies for the
service of the Lord.
