  039| ACTIVATING THE POWER FOR CHANGE OF STORY| 30 DAYS FASTING AND PRAYERS

  Aug 20, 202645 min

  ACTIVATING THE POWER FOR A CHANGE OF STORY Minister: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa Message Summary Every believer is a candidate for a continuous change of story, moving from glory to glory (Proverbs 4:18). However, spiritual transformation and breakthroughs do not occur automatically; they require building and activating inner spiritual strength through praying in the Holy Ghost. When a believer is joined to the Lord, they become one spirit with Him (1 Corinthians 6:17). This union is meant to produce vitality, health, and dominance. Yet, many remain weak—evidenced by frequent sicknesses, uncontrolled emotions, depression, demonic harassment in dreams, and persistent financial leakage because their spirit lacks the capacity to enforce divine reality over their physical body and circumstances. By cultivating divine sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, speaking inspired words, and acting on divine directions and prophetic tokens (such as anointing oil, targeted declarations, and specific prophetic acts), believers build spiritual stamina, silence demonic operations, and activate the power that enforces an undeniable change of story. Scriptural Anchors 1 Corinthians 6:15–17: "He that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit." Proverbs 4:18: "The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day." Proverbs 18:14: "The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?" Proverbs 25:28: "He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls." Luke 10:19: "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy..." Isaiah 30:21: "And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it..." 1 Kings 17:10–16: Elijah and the widow of Zarephath. 2 Chronicles 20:20–22: Jehoshaphat’s battle and prophetic victory. Detailed Sermon Notes 1. The Necessity of Spiritual Strength The Power of Tongues: Praying in tongues directly charges, edifies, and builds the spirit man, transforming spiritual potential into active power. Capacity Over Circumstances: A believer has full potential in Christ, but without exercising their spirit, they remain vulnerable to the pressures and attacks of life. Proverbs 18:14 Principle: A strong human spirit will sustain, repel, and overcome bodily infirmity and external attacks. When the spirit is weak, the body and circumstances easily succumb. 2. Identifying Spiritual Weakness Frequent Sickness and Infirmity: While medical issues exist, recurring physical breakdowns often indicate that the spirit lacks the strength to transmit divine health into the physical body. Demonic Attacks in Dreams: Being oppressed, chased, fed, or spiritually assaulted in dreams (and waking up drained or defiled) is a sign of low spiritual immunity. Emotional Fragility and Mood Swings: Easily falling into depression, weeping without cause, and quick-tempered anger show an unguarded spirit (Proverbs 25:28). Unexplained Financial Leakage: Money has a spiritual dimension; spiritual weakness allows demonic forces to siphon resources through recurring, unexplainable losses. 3. Spiritual Oneness and Transfiguration One Spirit with Christ (1 Corinthians 6:17): Deep intimacy and communion with God produce oneness in nature and power. Physical Impact of the Anointing: Intimacy with God affects the physical countenance and body (as seen on the Mount of Transfiguration with Jesus, and Moses on Mount Sinai). The presence of God revitalizes the believer's body. Walking in Authority (Luke 10:19): Being seated far above principalities means demonic entities, witchcraft, and bad omens have no legal right to dictate the believer's life or peace. 4. Divine Directions, Signs, and Tokens Physical Media for Spiritual Power: God often uses tangible instructions or tokens (anointing oil, communion, symbolic acts) to channel deliverance and miracles. The Role of Divine Sensitivity: Obeying precise instructions from the Holy Spirit unlocks breakthroughs that generic effort cannot produce. Prophetic Words and Decrees: Words inspired by the Spirit carry creative authority. When combined with obedient action (as with the widow of Zarephath giving her last meal to Elijah), natural lack is turned into supernatural abundance. Declarations & Prayer Points Faith Declarations "I am joined to the Lord, and I am one spirit with Him! His divine life, health, and power flow through my entire being." "My spirit is strengthened by the Holy Ghost; I refuse to be a victim of depression, demonic oppression, or physical infirmity!" "I walk in divine sensitivity. I hear the voice of the Spirit, I follow divine directions, and my story changes for the better today!" Targeted Prayer Points Building Spiritual Strength: Pray intensely in the Holy Ghost to charge your spirit man and elevate your spiritual capacity. Uprooting Sickness and Weakness: Command every form of bodily infirmity, weakness, and oppression to break off your body in the name of Jesus. Divine Direction & Supernatural Supply: Ask the Lord for specific, inspired instructions and sensitivity to recognize and act on divine directions for your financial and personal breakthrough.

  038| I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH: THE PURPOSE OF PRAYER| 30 DAYS OF FASTING AND PRAYERS

  Aug 19, 20261h 6m

  BUILDING THE CHURCH THROUGH TRAVAILING PRAYER Minister: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa Message Summary The growth, victory, and establishment of the Church are anchored upon the foundational ministry of prayer. Drawing from Matthew 16:18, Jesus declared, "I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." While the promise of victory is guaranteed, the practical execution of building the church and repelling the gates of hell requires believers to engage in knowledgeable, fervent prayer. Prayer without revelation is mere noise, but prayer rooted in the Word operates as a divine spiritual law. Because God gave dominion of the earth realm to man (Genesis 1:26), spiritual activity and divine intervention require human cooperation through prayer. Believers are mandated not to faint, but to enter into the deeper dimensions of intercession—moving past surface-level petitions into spiritual labor, travail, and birthing (Galatians 4:19; Colossians 4:12). Through this kind of prayer, spiritual resistance is broken, the harvest of souls is reaped, and the Church advances with undeniable power. Sermon Notes Main Scriptures: Matthew 16:18; Psalm 138:2; John 1:1; Luke 18:1; Luke 10:19; Galatians 4:19; Colossians 4:12 1. The Church as Christ’s Personal Project The Master Builder: Jesus specifically said, "I will build My church." The Church is His personal possession, and working to advance it makes the believer a co-laborer with Christ. Persistent Resistance: The "gates of hell" actively attempt to resist the expansion of the Church, but they are stripped of the power to prevail when the Church takes its place in prayer. Beyond Social Entertainment: Modern Christianity frequently waters down its spiritual heritage with entertainment. The true power and impact of the Church return when it prioritizes prayer and the ministry of the Word. 2. The Legal Necessity of Prayer Prayer Based on Knowledge: Prayer without spiritual understanding produces noise without impact. True prayer is the application of spiritual laws. God’s Earthly Operating System: In Genesis 1:26, God assigned dominion over the earth to man. Consequently, God works through human vessels to execute His divine will on earth. John Wesley’s Principle: "God does nothing but in answer to prayer." Prayer gives heaven legal permission to intervene in terrestrial affairs. The Primacy of the Word: In Psalm 138:2, God has magnified His Word above all His Name. Effective prayer enforces what God has already decreed in His Word. 3. The Dominion of the Believer Over Darkness Demonic Trespassing: Demonic spirits seek human bodies or circumstances to express their works of darkness. Without legal right, their presence is illegal. Luke 10:19 Authority: Believers have been given authority to tread on serpents, scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, with the covenant guarantee that nothing shall by any means hurt them. Overcoming False Fears: Believers must not live in intimidation of witchcraft or occultism. When light shines and spiritual authority is exercised, darkness must bow. 4. Entering the Realm of Labor and Travail in Prayer Prayer Beyond Words: There is a dimension of intercession that transcends ordinary articulation—entering into spiritual groaning and birthing. Birthing Christ in Men (Galatians 4:19): Paul spoke of travailing in birth again until Christ was formed in the believers. Discipleship, spiritual growth, and maturity require spiritual labor. The Ministry of Epaphras (Colossians 4:12): Epaphras, an ordinary church member, was commended for laboring fervently in prayers that the church might stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. The Historical Pattern: Great moves of God, such as the revivals under Charles Finney and Father Nash, were birthed not on public platforms, but through hidden, agonized prayer meetings. Key Declarations & Prayer Points Declaration: "The Church of Jesus Christ is marching on, and the gates of hell shall never prevail against it!" Declaration: "I am a co-laborer with Christ; I take my place on the altar of intercession to birth the purposes of God in my generation." Prayer for the Spirit of Prayer: Lord, pour out the spirit of grace and supplication upon the church. Raise up modern-day Epaphrases who will labor fervently for the maturity and advancement of the saints. Prayer for Kingdom Advancement: Enforce Kingdom dominion over your city, community, and nation; dismantle every gate of hell contending against the growth and revival of the Church.

  037| THE PURPOSE OF POWER| 30 DAYS OF FASTING AND PRAYER

  Aug 19, 202654 min

  THE PURPOSE OF POWER Minister: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa Message Transcript Summary The Christian walk is not merely an intellectual pursuit, a moral lecture, or an exercise in social etiquette; it is founded on the tangible power of God (1 Corinthians 4:20; Acts 1:8). Power is an essential pillar of the Kingdom of God, given through the Holy Spirit to enable believers to achieve divine assignments beyond natural and physical limitations. God does not grant power to impress people, build personal pride, or gain worldly fame. When the true purpose of power is misunderstood, abuse is inevitable. Power serves redemptive purposes: to reveal and validate the resurrected Christ, to confront and destroy the works of darkness, to confirm and establish the preaching of the Gospel with accompanying signs, to build and expand the church, and to empower believers to become transformational agents of Kingdom influence across every sector of society. Scriptural Anchors Acts 1:8: "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me..." Luke 10:19: "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy..." Acts 10:38: "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil..." Zechariah 4:6: "Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts." Mark 16:15–20: "And these signs shall follow them that believe... confirming the word with signs following." John 14:12: "He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do..." Detailed Sermon Notes 1. The Nature of Supernatural Power Beyond Natural and Intellectual Might: Zechariah 4:6 distinguishes between natural strength (military, physical, intellectual, or political might) and the supernatural power that originates from the Holy Spirit. A Divine Endowment: In Acts 1:8, Jesus promised that power (Dunamis) is received when the Holy Spirit comes upon the believer, empowering ordinary individuals for extraordinary Kingdom tasks. Essential for Proof: Christianity requires demonstration. Without the power of God at work, the message of the cross sounds like a mere philosophical story to a skeptical world. 2. The Danger of Misconceptions and Abuse Not for Showmanship: God does not release supernatural power to impress audiences, build celebrity status, or satisfy carnal ambition. Understanding Purpose: When the purpose of power is not understood, spiritual abuse, error, and deviation occur. Power must always be anchored to God's redemptive agenda. 3. The Five Core Purposes of Supernatural Power I. To Reveal Jesus Christ (Acts 3:1–16; Romans 8:29) Miracles point beyond the human vessel directly to the living, resurrected Christ. Just as Peter redirected the crowd's attention from himself to Jesus after the lame man was healed at the Beautiful Gate, power is meant to glorify the Son of God. II. To Destroy the Works of the Enemy (Acts 10:38; 1 John 3:8; Luke 10:19) Power is confrontational. Satan operates through organized demonic entities (powers, principalities, rulers of darkness). Spiritual power breaks demonic afflictions, cancels ancestral attacks, breaks yokes, and liberates captives from demonic oppression. III. To Confirm and Establish the Gospel (Mark 16:17–20) The Gospel is established in human hearts when accompanied by undeniable signs, wonders, and diverse miracles. Power turns abstract doctrine into living reality, causing unbelievers to acknowledge the truth of God's Word. IV. To Build and Expand the Church (Acts 2:41–47; Acts 4:29–33) In the early church, demonstrations of apostolic power produced awe, unity, conviction, and explosive daily church growth. A church void of power becomes a mere lecture hall; a church with power becomes a center of divine habitation and life transformation. V. To Transform Believers into Kingdom Agents in Society (John 14:12) "Greater works" are not confined within the four walls of the church; they extend to societal impact, governance, industry, innovation, and enterprise. Believers are called to dominate their environments, build businesses, solve practical human problems, and demonstrate Kingdom excellence in the marketplace. Faith Declarations & Prayer Points Declarations "I am a carrier of supernatural power through the Holy Ghost residing within me!" "I do not walk in fear or timidity; God has given me authority over all the works of darkness, and nothing shall by any means hurt me!" "My life and ministry will not consist of empty words, but of the demonstration of the Spirit and of power to the glory of Jesus Christ!" Prayer Points Fresh Baptism of Power: Pray for a fresh spiritual awakening and an active release of the power of the Holy Ghost upon your life. Confronting Darkness: Exercise your authority in Christ to break every demonic attack, affliction, and limitation operating against your family, health, and assignment. Marketplace Impact: Ask God for supernatural wisdom, creative enterprise ideas, and divine capacity to influence your community and establish Kingdom dominance.

  036| CHANGE OF STORY | 30 DAYS FASTING AND PRAYERS

  Aug 19, 202632 min

  THE PATH OF THE JUST: CHANGING YOUR STORY Minister: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa Executive Summary The Christian walk is designed for continual advancement, described in Scripture as moving from glory to glory and shining brighter unto the perfect day. A true "change of story" is not merely an escape from hardship; it is a progressive transition from good to better, and from better to greater dimensions of divine grace. As children of light, believers are not meant to struggle under darkness, witchcraft, or generational limitations. Although the enemy attempts to establish dates, cycles, and decrees for destruction, believers are equipped with covenant authority. Through fasting and prayer, spiritual decrees are enforced, demonic deadlines are overturned, and believers secure divine intervention to turn every potential tragedy into a testimony of preservation and victory. Scriptural Anchors Proverbs 4:18: "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day." Luke 10:19: "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you." Detailed Sermon Notes 1. The Nature and Reality of a "Change of Story" Universal Need: Every believer is a candidate for a continuous upgrade, whether transitioning out of adversity or ascending into higher realms of glory. No Spiritual Plateau: There is no ultimate ceiling in God. The Christian walk requires unending spiritual and practical progress. The Radiance of Righteousness: According to Proverbs 4:18, the believer's trajectory is like the morning sun, gaining strength and brilliance until full midday. Dominion of Light: Light does not negotiate with darkness. When believers walk consciously in their identity as light, confusion, fear, and oppression naturally dissipate. 2. Identifying and Overturning Satanic Traps Demonic Deadlines: The enemy often projects specific dates, seasonal patterns, and oppressive cycles aimed at aborting destinies, ministries, and marriages. The Hazard of Spiritual Sloth: Carelessness, passive living, and spiritual ignorance grant the enemy access to execute destructive agendas. Revoking Evil Decrees: Just as the fasting and prayers of Esther and Mordecai reversed Haman’s genocidal decree, focused spiritual diligence dismantles every satanic projection. 3. The Spiritual Mechanism of Fasting and Prayer Enforcing Covenant Reality: Fasting and prayer do not persuade God to act; they align the believer to enforce the finished work and established promises of Christ. Breaking Forecasted Crises: Dedicated, prolonged seasons of seeking God neutralise impending attacks and usher in divine upgrades, authority, and notable miracles. The Construction Principle: Fasting and prayer can feel strenuous and messy—much like excavating a site and pouring concrete—yet they lay the immovable foundation for a glorious life. 4. Absolute Dominion in Christ Comprehensive Authority: Luke 10:19 guarantees absolute dominion over serpents, scorpions, and all demonic operations, backed by the assurance that nothing shall by any means hurt the believer. Freedom from Intimidation: Occult shrines, ancestral altars, and demonic networks lose their relevance the moment a believer activates their God-given authority. Declarations & Prophetic Prayers Faith Declarations "My path is as the shining light that shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day. There is no darkness in my way!" "I walk in the fullness of Christ's authority over all the power of the enemy. Nothing shall by any means hurt me, my family, or my assignment." "My story is not on a decline; I move continuously from glory to glory and from victory to victory!" Targeted Prayer Points Overturning Satanic Decrees: Cancel every evil deadline, ancestral pattern, and demonic projection assigned against your health, marriage, business, and destiny. Grace for Spiritual Diligence: Pray for a fresh baptism of intercession and consistency in fasting to enforce covenant victories. Divine Acceleration: Ask the Lord to turn every lingering delay into a sudden, undeniable change of story that brings glory to His name. ant to struggle under the oppression of darkness, witchcraft, or generational limitations. However, the enemy often marks dates and seasons to orchestrate destruction, marital breakdown, or ministry collapse. Fasting and prayer serve as the spiritual mechanism to enforce the finished promises of God, break demonic decrees, and secure divine intervention. Drawing from personal testimony and biblical patterns (such as Esther and Israel), spiritual diligence turns potential tragedy into a testimony of victory, lifting, and preservation.

  035| THE FAITH OF THE FATHERS| FAITH CONVENTION 2026 DAY 1

  Jul 31, 20261h 32m

  Sermon Title: The Faith of the Fathers Core Theme: Understanding, valuing, and walking in the biblical technology of faith by following the examples, characteristics, and unwavering faith of the patriarchs of old. Part I: Foundations of Faith & The Apostolic Gathering 1. Introduction & The Apostolic Context The Nature of an Apostolic Gathering: In an apostolic gathering, God delivers assigned or sent messages designed to bring transformation, position the church for an unusual manifestation of power, heal sicknesses, and deliver people from oppressions. The Danger of Distraction: Many believers miss out on their breakthroughs because of distractions (e.g., admiring outfits, side conversations, checking phones). Just as God put Adam into a deep sleep to form Eve without distraction, God requires deep attentiveness so believers do not miss the specific, life-altering words designed for them. Biblical Example: In Acts 3, Peter and John told the lame man, "Look on us." Attention is required to receive a miracle; distraction robs people of their blessings. 2. The Supremacy and Vital Importance of Faith Foundation of Christianity: There is no Christianity without faith. Salvation, experiences of God, pleasing God, and receiving inheritance are all accessed through faith. Guarding Against End-Time Obsolete Elements: Loss of Genuine Love for God: Revelation 2:4-5 warns against leaving one's first love. Matthew 24:12 notes that in the end times, iniquity will abound and the love of many will wax cold, causing people to love pleasure more than God. Loss of Faith: Luke 18:8 asks, "When the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?" Hebrews 10:23 commands believers to hold fast the profession of their faith without wavering and to assemble together to safeguard it. Contending for the Faith: Jude 1:3 urges believers to "earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints." Faith is a fight; believers must learn how to fight to maintain it (Hebrews 6:12). 3. The Faith of the Fathers (The Patriarchs) Definition of the Fathers: This refers to the biblical characters, apostles, and prophets from the Old and New Testaments (e.g., Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Elijah, Elisha, Apostle Paul, Jesus) who walked with God by faith. Hebrews 11 Overview (The Hall of Faith): Hebrews 11:1: Faith is "the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:2: "For by it the elders obtained a good report." The patriarchs obtained divine testimonies and good report cards of life through faith, not human effort. Why We Must Follow Their Faith: It is the established pattern and lifestyle of the Kingdom (Habakkuk 2:4: "The just shall live by his faith"). It is a guarantee of receiving the promises (Hebrews 6:12). It protects believers from self-glorification and self-dependence. 4. Faith vs. Works & Self-Glory The Error of Self-Justification: Romans 4:2-4 explains that if Abraham was justified by works, he would have something to boast about, but not before God. Human effort, self-confidence, and fleshly works always fail before God. When people rely on their own wealth, degrees, or abilities, it leads to pride and abomination before God (e.g., the rich fool in Luke 12, King Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel). The DNA of Faith: Faith completely negates self-glory. True faith is anchored entirely on the goodness and grace of God, meaning God gets all the glory when breakthroughs happen. The Inclusion of the Uncircumcised: Romans 4:9-12 clarifies that Abraham's righteousness was accounted to him while he was uncircumcised. Circumcision was merely a sign/seal. This proves that both Jews and Gentiles can access this justification and inherit the promises simply by believing, regardless of background. Part II: Characteristics and Evidence of the Faith of the Fathers 1. Key Characteristics of the Faith of the Fathers To walk effectively in this dimension, believers must emulate the core characteristics displayed by the patriarchs: (1) Born Out of Intimacy: Real faith is birthed out of personal encounters and deep fellowship with God, not just copied principles (Romans 10:17: "Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God"). Biblical Examples: Moses spoke with God face-to-face, "as a man speaks to his friend" (Exodus 33:11). Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob all had life-altering personal encounters with God. Without intimacy, faith becomes weak. (2) Unwaving Trust in God’s Abilities and Promises: The faith of the fathers maintains absolute confidence in God that does not shake under pressure or opposing circumstances (Romans 4:18-21 regarding Abraham; Hebrews 11:32-34). (3) Uncontested Obedience Despite the Cost: True faith obeys God completely, regardless of human logic or personal sacrifice. Biblical Example: Abraham demonstrated uncontested obedience when asked to offer Isaac (Genesis 22), calling his act of surrender "worship" (Genesis 22:5). (4) Persistence and Perseverance through Trials: James 1:2-4 encourages believers to count it all joy when facing trials because testing produces endurance. Biblical Example: David remained steadfast when facing Goliath (1 Samuel 17), viewing trials as stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks. Job maintained his trust through extreme suffering (Job 2:10, 42:10). (5) Willingness to Act Out Their Faith (Violent/Audacious Faith): Faith requires action and boldness. The fathers acted out their convictions with holy audacity—whether it was shutting mouths of lions, quenching fires, or stepping into impossible waters (Hebrews 11:33-34). 2. The Ultimate Benefits of Following Their Faith Nothing Shall Be Impossible: When operating in this realm of faith, impossibilities are eradicated (Mark 9:23). Pleasing God: Without faith, it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). Divine Positioning & Generational Legacy: Faith transfers blessings, changes family lineages (shifting families from poverty to abundance, or from obscurity to leadership like Joseph and David), and leaves a permanent mark of victory across generations. 3. Conclusion & Call to Action Stand Your Ground: Refuse to be moved by negative circumstances, family history, economic hardships, or medical reports. Make the Decision: Shift your focus from self-dependence and social media distractions to deep spiritual intimacy with God. The Final Declaration: As the year progresses toward its close, anchor your life on unwavering, unshakeable faith, and step boldly into the supernatural manifestations prepared for you in Christ.
