Title: Ask For His Help

Scripture: Hebrews 4: 16

“Therefore let us [with privilege] approach the throne of grace [that is, the throne of God’s gracious favour] with confidence and without fear, so that we may receive mercy [for our failures] and find [His amazing] grace to help in time of need [an appropriate blessing, coming just at the right moment Hebrews 4: 16 (AMP) Thanks be to God for His faithfulness. His mercies and graciousness have brought us into the tenth month of year 2025. Glory Halleluyah! God’s intention for us is not to just live, but to live an impactful life.The year began for each of us differently with diverse kind of expectations as is natural for human beings. Some of such expectations could have been met while some are yet to be attained. Also, in the cause of the year, other new desires and expectations might have come up. For all our concerns and anxieties, Jesus gave an open invitation to us in Matthew 11: 27. Jesus is the burden bearer and helper of the helpless. Just as Peter experienced His help in Luke 5: 1 – 8, you too can. Peter had “toiled” (laboured) all night, yet there was no pleasant result to compensate his effort. But as he (Peter), yielded to the instruction given by Jesus, he (Peter) had the best business success of his fishing career on that day. In this season, beloved, beyond you going to Jesus for help, be prepared to do whatever He will ask you to do. In John 2: 5, Mary, mother of our Lord Jesus told the servants at the wedding in Cana that “whatever, He says to you, do it”. Peter also said, “At thy word” (Luke 5: 5). The blessings from God are usually tied to obedience to His instructions. Of course, we do not have the benefit of seeing Jesus physically the way the servants in John 2 and Peter in Luke 5 encountered Him. Yet, we are not without Him. In His words, Jesus introduced the Holy Spirit to us as the director and the guide of this dispensation. John 16: 7 & 13. In this season brothers and sisters, I want to encourage you to fellowship more with the Holy Spirit and let Him reveal things to you. He will also lead and guide you to fruitfulness. Only let your response be like Peter’s in Luke 5: 5 and that of the servants in John 2: 7 - 8. Come boldly to the throne of mercy and obtain grace for help. In this season, I pray that, whatsoever you have been striving to achieve, the Holy Spirit will lead and guide you through a divine path of achieving them, in the name of Jesus. Amen. He will give you peace. Peace beyond human comprehension, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Happy new month

History of the RCCG

July 1909, a son was born into the Akindayomi family of Ondo State of Nigeria. Even though this child grew up surrounded by idol worshippers, he knew there existed a greater power and yearned to know,

“The God who created the earth and everyone on it”. This pursuit for God led him to the Church Missionary Society where he was baptized in 1927. Still spiritually unfulfilled, he joined the Cherubim and Seraphim church in 1931.

Whilst there, he began to hear a voice within him saying, “You will be my servant.” Since this was not his intention, he decided to ignore the voice. This went on for seven years during which all the business ventures that he tried resulted into failure. In debt and without peace of mind, he found himself totally dependent on the grace of God. Here marked the beginning of a definite relationship with God.Totally broken, he yielded saying, “Lord, I will go wherever you want me to go.” He asked for signs to confirm that this was indeed God’s call. The confirmation came through the Bible passages of Jeremiah 1:4-10, Isaiah 41:10-13 and Romans 8:29-31. The Lord assured him that He would provide for all his needs, as he would not receive any salary from that point on. This proved to be a comforting reminder during the trials in the months ahead. He became married in 1941. He continued to worship with the Cherubim and Seraphim. In 1947, he started to become concerned that the church was departing from the true Word of God in some of its practices. By 1952, he felt totally persuaded to leave the church. He started at Willoughby Street, Ebute-Metta, Lagos a housefellowship called, the Glory of God Fellowship. Initially there were nine members but before long the fellowship rapidly grew as the news of the miracles that occurred in their midst spread.

Akindayomi also had a vision of words that appeared to be written on a blackboard. The words were “The Redeemed Christian Church of God.” Amazingly, Pa Akindayomi who could not read or write was supernaturally able to write these words down. In this visitation, God also said to him that this church would go to the ends of the earth and that when the Lord Jesus Christ appeared in glory, He would meet the church. The Lord then established a covenant with Pa Akindayomi, synonymous to the Abrahamic covenant in the Bible. He said that He the Lord would meet all the needs of the church in an awesome way if only members would serve Him faithfully and be obedient to His Word. It is upon this covenant that the Redeemed Christian Church of God was built.

Thus, the Redeemed Christian Church of God was born in 1952, destined by the Lord Himself to take the world for Him. The church continued to meet at 9 Willoughby Street until they were able to acquire some land thereby witnessing a relocation to the present site of the Headquarters of the church at 1-5 Redemption Way, Ebute-Metta, Lagos (formerly 1a, Cemetery Street).

Sometime in the early 70s, God had spoken to Pa Akindayomi about his successor. The Lord told him that this man who was not a member of the church then, would be a young educated man. Thus when a young university lecturer joined the church in 1973, Papa was able to recognize him in the Spirit as the one that the Lord had spoken about in the past. This man, Enoch Adejare Adeboye who was then a lecturer of Mathematics at the University of Lagos soon became involved in the church. He became one of the interpreters translating Pa Akindayomi’s sermons from Yoruba to English. He was ordained a pastor of the church in 1975.

Papa was preparing to meet his Creator. He sent for Pastor Adeboye and spent several hours sharing with him details of the covenant and the plans of the Lord for the church. Even though a year before this, the Lord had revealed to Pastor Adeboye that he would be Papa’s successor, it was still too difficult for him to fully contemplate such an awesome responsibility.

Pa Josiah Akindayomi was 71 years old when he died. Amidst controversy, Pastor Adeboye’s appointment was formalized by the reading of Pa Akindayomi’s sealed pronouncement after his burial.

Since 1981, an open explosion began with the number of parishes growing in leaps and bounds. At the last count, there are at least about 40,000 parishes of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in Nigeria. On the International scene, the church is present in other African nations including C’ote D’Ivoire, Ghana, Zambia, Malawi, Zaire, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Gambia, Cameroon, and South Africa. In Europe the church is spread in England, Germany, and France. In the United States there are parishes in Dallas, Tallahassee, Houston, New York, Washington, and Chicago and also in the Caribbean states of Haiti and Jamaica.

Today, God is still doing marvelous deeds through the Redeemed Christian Church of God, worldwide. One of the well-known programs of the church is the Holy Ghost Service, an all night miracle service that holds on the first Friday of every month at the Redemption Camp at Km. 46, Lagos-Ibadan expressway. The average headcount of those who attend the Service is about 500,000. The Holy Ghost Service now holds in different parts of the world which includes the United Kingdom, India, USA, Canada, South Africa, Australia, Dubai, Ghana, Philippines and many more
