AT THE BEGINNING OF THE HOLY GHOST SERVICE, GOD DEMANDED THANKSGIVING FROM ME AND WE SAW 14,000 PEOPLE HEALED ON A SINGLE NIGHT WITHOUT ANYBODY LAYING HANDS ON THEM
PRAISE GOD LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER DONE BEFORE, TO THANK HIM LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER DONE BEFORE AND HE WILL DO MORE
I USED TO BE KNOCKED DOWN BY MALARIA FEVER EVERY TWO WEEKS BEFORE I BARGAINED TO SERVE GOD. I HAVEN’T HAD MALARIA FEVER EVER SINCE
DECIDE TO SERVE GOD WITH WHATEVER HE GIVES YOU AND HE WILL GIVE YOU MORE
THOSE OF YOU WHO THINK YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING FOR GOD BUT YOU DON’T HAVE THE MONEY, MONEY IS COMING.
– Pastor E. A. Adeboye on “SUPERNATURAL ENLARGEMENT” at RCCG January 2024 Thanksgiving Service 7th January, 2024 Part B
So we want to learn 3 major things quickly from Solomon when he saw that God has repositioned him, he is now king:
1. He decided to praise God massively. Bible said he offered a thousand burnt offering. When we read it like that it might not mean much to you unless you can just sit down, imagine it. The King had called together the sons of Levi – I want to thank God. “Ah, your majesty, well done.” Then they brought the first cow, they slaughtered it. They brought the second, the third, by the time it got to the 7th they were looking at him because everybody knew Solomon was a spoilt child; he wasn’t too clever.
So they were looking at themselves, “may be we need to advise him o, 7 is enough.” He said, ah, I haven’t even started. Seven? I’m not stopping at 700. I’m going all the way to 1000. By the time they had slaughtered a thousand cows in one day, the place was flowing with blood.
Everybody was wondering, what is this? God himself looked down from Heaven and said, “alright boy, you’ve done something for me that nobody had ever done before.
I will show you who I am.” That’s why the Almighty God paid him a visit that night. It’s the first time the Almighty God ever said to anybody, “ask anything.” This morning I am going to encourage you all, whether it is afternoon, evening or night wherever you are, listen to me because by now it is night in Australia. I want you to praise God like you’ve never done before, to thank him like you have never done before. I know you came prepared what you want to give God for thanksgiving – change your mind.
Just think about it. What he’s done for you is far far more than you can ever repay but at least show him for once that, “Daddy, oh you’re wonderful and I will show you that I’m also a good boy/girl.” God came and gave him a blank cheque – already signed. Blank cheque of the Bank of Heaven. God said, ask anything you want.
You think God has been good to you? You haven’t seen anything yet.
Praise Him and he will show you. I told you once: when we were beginning the Holy Ghost Service at the Camp and there was a particular weekend special Holy Ghost Service. I was getting ready, fasting for days, then I was praying and all of a sudden God spoke to me, “I don’t want to hear any prayer from you.
All I want is thanksgiving; just worship me for all I have already done.” That was the first time in my ministry that on a single night, 14,000 people were healed without anybody laying hands on any one of them.
In those days we had plenty of time because we always go from 7(pm) to 6am – so we counted. When we finished that, I got back into my room, he didn’t have to tell me now to praise Him because almost everybody who came got healed. While I was praising Him he said to me, “Son, don’t worry yourself. I will do more tonight.” Ah, we were all already healed. But when he speaks just believe him. How many of you believe that your tomorrow is going to be alright?
Then the people who got healed went home and began to tell all their friends. “Do you know this is what happened last night? You were not there?” The following day, that was the first time we began to have traffic jam on the Expressway.
The following day, 16,000 were healed. You think you are somebody yet? Wait and see what my Daddy is going to do.
How many of you really believe that before the end of the year you’re going to become somebody special?
You know we stopped counting the number of people who got healed in one night after the number increased to a 144,000. We don’t bother to count anymore but I mean, just ask yourself, there’s something called Holy Ghost Service that started almost 40 years ago and it’s still getting stronger and stronger, you should know that there is something behind the scene.
You know the blessing that God is going to bless you with today, this year, even your grandchildren will still be enjoying the blessing.
2. Solomon said, all I’m asking for is what I will need to serve you. The reason I’m asking for wisdom and understanding, you made me a king, how do I handle this assignment? How can I serve you satisfactorily? You praise him mightily, profusely, thank God for the way Mummy led us this morning but don’t stop there, keep on praising him and then, decide to serve him.
When you ask for money so that you can use the money to serve him, he will provide more than you need. When you ask for good health so that you can serve him, look at me now (I am healthy).
A friend of mine, we are about the same age phoned last year: “Pastor, how are you doing it?
Today we see you are in America. Tomorrow you are in India, next time … you jumping up and down as if you’re a little boy.
What’s your secret?” I said, “ha! I laughed and said, it must be your prayer. He laughed. I am over 80 by the grace of God.
On one occasion I travelled with small small boys, young men, some of them less than 40 years old and we travelled long distance – Australia, New Zealand, Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea and I’m talking of ways far far away. We will go have a program in the evening, get home by 11pm and that’s when we will take breakfast and finally we will probably get on bed by 1am and by 5am I will phone all of them, “get up o because we are going to the next place.”
By the time we came back and I said we will stop for one day in one particular place, the following morning I waited and didn’t see my children at morning devotion. I said, ah, what happened? I said, well may be they’re sleeping. By 12 o’clock I still haven’t seen them. They were still sleeping. They were all asking, Daddy how do you do it? …Because I made a bargain with God. I used to be knocked down by malaria fever every two weeks then I said to him, “heal me and I will serve you.” I haven’t had malaria fever ever since.
You promised that you will serve him with whatever he gives you, he will give you more. I am looking at some of you now who are younger than I who are already feeling older than I but things will change today. From now on you will be bouncing in good health. Those of you who think you want to do something for God only you don’t have the money, ah, money is coming.
But when it comes, what are you going to use it for? To serve him. I’ve said it again and again, God is looking for treasurers. Don’t let anybody tell you there’s no money in this Country. It’s just that it is in the wrong hands. Take my word for it: this Year, wealth will change hands.
