The Redeemed Christian Church Of God's annual convention kicked off yesterday at The Redemption Camp, Lagos Ibadan expressway. This year's theme is The All Sufficient One. Read The General Overseer, Pastor E.A Adeboye's welcome message below.
The Lord has preserved us to see another Convention of His Church and to participate in the blessings that He alone can give. We therefore welcome you to the convention of "The All-Sufficient God". This year's theme holds lots of promises for all of us who will participate in all the proceedings and our lives will be imparted in ways we have never imagined.
The All Sufficient One has enough blessings to give all His children because there is no shortage in His storehouse. He appeared to Abraham as the El Shaddai, the One who is more than enough (Gen 17:1), and He is still the same till this moment. During this convention, He will release His All-sufficiency concerning all your long-awaited miracle and you will become a testimony in the name of Jesus.
The All Sufficient One rules by decrees. He commanded light where there was darkness and darkness had no option but to take its leave (Gen 1:3). He commanded ravens to feed Elijah and they did not miss their way (Kings 17:4-6). He is the One who calls those things that be not as though they were (Romans 4:7) and He has not changed. You will encounter Him again as He decrees goodness, mercy, favour, and healing into your life.
He spoke to the sea and the waves and there was peace. He will speak into your situations and you will have new experience of fulfillment. He spoke to the emptiness of a widow and she became an oil merchant, and her disgrace was turned to abundance. Get ready for a delude of miracle.
His promises cover every aspect of your life- spiritual, physical, emotional, financial and material.
Zacchaeus was rich but he needed something money could not buy. He sought the attention of Jesus (Luke 19:12-8). Salvation entered his house, the Lamb of God who takes away sin of the whole world visited him and his past was washed away.
There will be salvation galore during this convention. It is the opportunity you have been waiting for in order to make peace with God. Hannah, the mother of Samuel, did not visit Shiloh in vain. She returned with her bundle of joy. You will be the next in the line. The woman with the issues of blood did not touch His garment in vain. Her issues were adequately dealt with. The man at the Pool of Bethesda was made whole of all his diseases. The incurable was healed and raised up to confront life with gusto.
Since it is God's nature to give more than we need, the anointing that will operate during this convention take you to the level of "running over". That was the anointing that took the shepherd boy and made him a king and the progenitor of the King of kings. This same anointing turned the son of a farmer to a great prophet and the father of kings. This anointing will touch individuals, organizations will be transformed and whole nations will rejoice.
As you participate in all the Plenary Sessions, Seminars and Bible Studies, prepare yourself for unprecedented breakthroughs and a new level of walking with God. Please remember to obey all camp rules and be at the right place at the right time. Be in meditation and take time to reflect on the message God sends to you through His ministers. You will not be disappointed that you attended this year's convention.
The One who holds the whole world in His hand is more than able to meet all needs, and He is already waiting for you. He knows you by name because He calls the stars in their billions by name. He is here before you came. Concentrate on Him and let nothing divert your attention from Him. "They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed" (Psalm 34:5). Remember, this Jesus who is the All Sufficient One, is the same yesterday, and today and forever.
Welcome to Convention 2015
