SUPERNATURALLY REVIVED THROUGH ANOINTING WATER!

Emmanuel! Here is another wonderful testimony concerning the power of God at work through the Anointing Water in the lives of God’s people worldwide!

“Praise the Lord! My name is Rehema Robert Mwakajila from Tanzania. On 16^th July 2013, my sister’s son called Isack suddenly fainted in the house. He was gone for more than 6 hours. I was alone at home and so scared with his condition. I tried everything I could to resuscitate him but every attempt was unsuccessful. With hope slowly fading, I went into my room and spoke to God in a way I had never spoken to Him before.

I prayed, “God who has been healing others through this Anointing Water from the man of God, T.B. Joshua, please do the same to this boy!” I then brought out the Anointing Water and ministered it to Isack. People of God, behold – literally a second after I ministered the Anointing Water onto the boy he woke up and regained his consciousness! This was after six hours! I was so happy because this was my first time I had ever seen a miracle with my own two eyes. I am weak in faith, so that healing to me was a very big miracle and boost in my faith. Isack is now completely strong and healthy! Thank You, Jesus Christ!”

‘The Right Hand Of God Is Power!’

Here is a wonderful testimony of a man who was healed from severe chest pains after praying along with Prophet T.B. Joshua on Emmanuel TV. 

“Emmanuel! I want to thank Jesus for the wonderful thing He has done in my life since I started watching Emmanuel TV! A few weeks ago, I received my healing by touching the screen of Emmanuel TV as Prophet T.B. Joshua prayed for viewers around the world. I was having severe chest pains which had really hindered my life and ability to work. I couldn’t do anything like manual labour because the pain was so excruciating at times. There were many household jobs which my wife had to do because of the situation. I was really unhappy about it. Even when I went to the doctors, they could only prescribe some tablets which only eased the pain slightly but never brought any permanent result.

“So, as the prophet was praying for viewers, I just placed my hand on the screen and then placed my other hand on my chest. I suddenly began to feel this warm sensation within me; it was amazing. That was it! I was healed! Ever since then, I have been walking and working freely without any pain. It is a wonderful testimony!

“Also, earlier this year, I had a funny dream where I saw myself eating something. The next day, which was a Sunday, I was watching the live service and also following the Facebook updates which TB Joshua Ministries were posting regularly. One of the Facebook updates was a prayer which said, ‘Whatever poison you may have eaten in the dream, flush it out in the name of Jesus Christ.’ I think it was one of the prayer points during the Mass Prayer. I commented, ‘Amen’ on the status. A few moments later, I started feeling nauseous as though I needed to vomit. I immediately rushed to the toilet and began spitting and vomiting some strange things out of my system. I thank God for this mighty deliverance! Thank You, Jesus! I love SCOAN and Emmanuel TV.”

Peter Tole Magenyi, Kenya

Whatever situation you are in, we encourage you to join Prophet T.B. Joshua in prayer and believe God for your miracle, In Jesus’ name.

DELIVERED THROUGH DANCING!!!

Mary lay uncomfortably on the couch in her sitting room, her body aching in pain. For the past two weeks, she had been struck by an ailment that had sapped her strength and rendered her unable to discharge her daily duties. Switching on her television to Emmanuel TV, she beheld a welcome sight. It was the Monday Live Prophetic Service. Moments after watching, Mary saw Prophet T.B. Joshua enter into The SCOAN. Songs of praise to God Almighty filled the auditorium and the joy seemed to radiate right through the television into her room. Then she saw Prophet T.B. Joshua begin to dance…

“Emmanuel! Praise God, people of God! I have a wonderful testimony to share to the glory of God. On Monday 13^th August 2012, I was sleeping on my couch. I had not been feeling well for almost two weeks and I was in serious pain. My whole body was aching, especially my legs. I decided to watch the Monday Live Service on Emmanuel TV lying on the couch because I had no strength to stand.

“Then, when Prophet T.B. Joshua came out, I saw him dancing to the music with the congregation rejoicing. As soon as I saw Prophet T.B. Joshua dancing, I said to myself, ‘Ah! The Prophet is dancing!’ I don’t know what got into me but I jumped up from the couch and started dancing with him, imitating his dance moves! I don’t know where I got such strength to dance! Later on, the praise and worship team began singing, ‘Look at me O lord and answer my prayer; restore my strength, don’t let me down.’ I reached out and touched the screen of Emmanuel TV, praying and singing in faith. Suddenly, supernatural strength just seemed to leap from the television and into me and I began to move my body freely and praise God.

“People of God, as I write this email, I am so full of joy! I am healed and there is no more pain whatsoever. I don’t even know how to express myself! I give glory to God. Thank You, Jesus! My advice to the whole world is to believe that truly distance is not a barrier for the power of God. We thank You, Lord, for anointing Prophet T.B. Joshua in our generation today.  Just imagine – by dancing along with him, I was completely healed!”

HEALED THROUGH A DREAM WHILE WATCHING EMMANUEL TV

Here is another wonderful testimony from an Emmanuel TV viewer in Ghana. She testifies to how, while watching Emmanuel TV, she fell asleep and had an encounter with the healing power of Jesus Christ in a dream. To God be the glory!

“I am Solange Carine Tenejou from Cameroon but living in Ghana with my husband and our three children.

“We watch Emmanuel TV in our house almost every Sunday. In fact, even our children know and love to do that together with my husband and myself. The following is our testimony and we are most grateful to Jesus our King for using Prophet T.B. Joshua as He did for His prophets of old.

“One Sunday afternoon after coming back from church, as usual we gathered quickly to watch Emmanuel TV. We always used to watch and pray along with the man of God. However, this time around something strange happened. Almost everybody fell asleep! With Emmanuel TV on in the background, I had a dream.

“In that dream, the man of God, Prophet T.B. Joshua had come to my town and I was the first person in line that he was going to minister to. I was so happy and was waiting impatiently for a touch from God. When he came to me, he laid his hand upon me and I fell under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. I got up and he laid his hand on me for the second time and I fell again. Then I felt something finding its way out from my head where I had been having severe and sharp pains of late followed by nose bleeding.

“What had been happening to me is that sometimes when I just stood up or bent down to do the washing, blood would begin pouring uncontrollably out of my nose. I became so worried but could not tell my husband how serious it was becoming because I didn’t want him to worry, especially because he was facing some difficulties in business. After the touch of the man of God TB Joshua in the dream, I felt something was coming out from my head towards my mouth.

“My mouth opened and after a while of struggling, I fell on my knees and vomited. I felt something leave my body! All of my body began to vibrate and I got up, praising and thanking God while going home. Then I woke up from my sleep with my hands still vibrating in a strange manner. Since that moment, the bleeding has completely stopped. Also, the sharp and severe pains in my head have vanished.

“I give all the honour and glory to my Master and Saviour Jesus Christ who is the pillar of my life and that of my family. I thank the man of God for all the wonderful deeds the Lord is using him to do – even in dreams. I am so grateful.

“The testimony does not end there. My husband was having severe pain in the nerves inside his middle finger of the right hand. That same evening around 11 pm, both of us went to the website of Emmanuel TV and watched a prayer for the viewers to receive healing. My husband placed his hands on the screen of the computer and instantaneously received healing from the pain he had being battling with.

“Before, he could not fully fold or close his fingers because one of them had become so stiff and painful – right from the bone. It was very painful to the extent he would scream when you pressed that spot on his finger. After the prayer, he felt so relieved and could fold and stretch his fingers together with that particular finger. The pain and stiffness went spontaneously!

“Thank you and may God continue to bless and use The SCOAN and Emmanuel TV more and more the way He does, with more miracles in his Vineyard. We all so desperately need our God to do more for the people he created in His image to know and love Him as their only God. Amen!”

Mrs Solange Carine Tenejou, Ghana 

Mind And Body Restored!

Mrs Ndassi Muchiso from Beau Town, Cameroon wrote to Emmanuel TV to share this remarkable testimony of how her son was delivered from a demonic attack resulting in a psychiatric problem that was growing steadily worse. God delivered him through the Anointing Water!

“In the month of November last year, one of my children came to me and complained of suffering from ‘loss of memory’. He went to the hospital and was referred to for a psychiatric check-up. He began to act abnormally in the house and we became very worried at the way in which my son was destabilising.

“The situation worsened and on December 18^th, he began shivering uncontrollably. We soon began to realise that the situation was not ordinary – it was a demonic attack! Upon investigation, it was discovered that a friend of his from Kumba visited him and attempted to initiate him into a cult. We decided to consult our spiritual doctor: Emmanuel TV! We were fasting and praying with Emmanuel TV, especially during the Live Sunday Services.

“In the mean time, medical doctors administered a dosage of treatment on him but gave up the next day, advising us that the illness was beyond their comprehension. However, God moves in mysterious ways to perform His wonders, a reality we were about to witness.

“On 20th December 2011, a brother came to our house from Lagos with a bottle of Anointing Water and some other evangelical materials from The SCOAN. We were all excited and believed that God would use the Anointing Water to deliver my son. That night, the illness visited him again, this time around much worse than before. I called one of his brothers to pray with me before opening the bottle of the Anointing Water. We began to pray for him in the mighty name of Jesus Christ and sprayed the Anointing Water.

“As the Anointing Water was ministered, my child began convulsing on the bed stronger than before for about five minutes and then suddenly went into deep sleep. We continued in prayer, knowing that God was in control of the situation. Ten minutes later, he got up by himself and began to ask us what had happened to him. His mind and body were completely restored! He later dreamed of having a tough fight with the friend who attempted to initiate him, ending in a vehicle chasing that friend away forever. Through the Anointing Water, he was completely delivered!

“For now, there is no English word that I can use to describe this healing than to say glory and honour and power and might be unto our God, in Jesus’ name. Behold, the ordeal is now over, in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Thank You Lord and thank you Prophet T.B. Joshua – our son is healed forever. He is very, very normal and is now going to school as if nothing ever happened to him. I love Jesus because He first loved us and we are covered by His blood. Jesus, the crucified and risen Lord, is our constant Companion. 

“We always worship with you every week in The SCOAN through Emmanuel TV because distance is not a barrier. May you be richly blessed and may His grace and glory continue to grow in you forever, in Jesus’ name!”

Ndassi Muchiso – Cameroon

A REVOLUTIONARY STORY OF RECONCILIATION

LIBERATED FROM A LIFE OF MEANINGLESS ACTIVITY

Read this stirring account of how a  twisted and tormented life can be transformed in just a moment, how a marriage on the rocks can be resurrected and how a life of bondage can be given liberation forever. Here is an Emmanuel TV story sure to stir wonder in the depths of your heart, bring a tear to your eye and leave you in awe of an awesome God.  

Life was literally hellish for Maria Chisanga, her volatile husband dealing her verbal and physical abuse again in a fit of drunken madness. Their marriage had not started on such a chaotic note but alcohol had slowly consumed, overtaken and destroyed him. Alex was not the same man she had first met. For the young Zambian couple, already with two kids, the situation was dire and the marriage at the point of breaking beyond repair. “I don’t know whether it was due to the money I started having”, Alex reminisced. “but the moment we had our second kid, problems started coming and I started drinking. I was going out every night with friends and they influenced me to drink. From that time, things started to go downhill. The deeper it went, the worse life became and I started drinking badly. It was uncontrollable”.

As the alcohol clouded his judgement and veiled his values, Alex started going regularly outside his marital home, eloping with different women on various occasions, including the younger sister of Maria’s closest friend. He had three children outside of wedlock. “Eventually I ran away from my house, with my wife crying bitterly. They went to my father and different pastors – still they couldn’t stop me. You know, when you are carried away – you are gone.” Alex finally left his house in disarray, with his five children from Maria becoming virtually fatherless. “I was still financially supporting my wife, but soon stopped because I was with other women. That’s when I moved completely to Botswana and forgot about taking care of her and the children completely.”

Each attempted return to reconcile resulted in more strife and fights. Maria eventually made the decision to her hometown. “When my husband started drinking, it was horrible,” Maria soberly stated. “It was a time of crying, a time of crises, a very hard time for me. We were fighting and shouting at each other every day. He was beating me any time he felt like it. My children were so much affected by the drinking of their father. They came to the point of telling me, ‘Mummy – if you can leave this man, I think it would be better for you – because this man is beating you and bringing so many problems in our lives today.’ Even paying their school fees was a problem. Eating was a problem. He was beating me so much and I got tired. I prayed and prayed until I got tired and decided to leave the marriage.”

In bondage to beer...

If anyone is in a position to explain the devastating and destructive effect of alcohol abuse, it is Alex Chisanga. With turmoil throughout his home and life, Alex habit of extreme drinking established itself devilishly in his life. He literally existed in a state of delirium, dependent on the next beer-binge. “There was not a day that I did not drink,” he vividly explained. “The time I am talking with you now, maybe a carton would be gone. You know, when I got paid, I would buy some cartons and put them in the fridge instead of buying food. I might go and get five or six cartons and put them in the fridge. It came to the extent that I could not even sit like this without having a beer because I would be shaking. I needed to have a beer with me.  When I was going to the toilet, I would carry a beer. It came to a time when I couldn’t even cook for myself. I had to go out and buy food before I could eat. Sometimes, I would spend two or three days without food but beer was there. Even when I was going to bed, when I slept, I would be having a bottle with me. As I would be trying to sleep, I would be drinking. In the night, all I would dream of was beer. And the moment I woke up, I would start. Sometimes, the bottle would fall from my hands in the night. You would just get up in the morning and see the mess, go to the fridge and get another one. I couldn’t live without beer. Like you are sitting down now – I couldn’t. I needed to have it with me. I needed to have it in my stomach – if I didn’t, I would become something else. I would become wild.”

As to be expected, the extreme addiction had taken its toll on him both physically and psychologically, with regular thoughts of suicide whirling within his head. “Physically, I was not normal. There were times when I would feel like a mad person. All it would tell you – go to the fridge, it is there. I even went bankrupt because of my alcohol addiction. If it was not there and you didn’t have money in the bank, I would force myself to go and sell something so that at least, it would be there. It must be there. My vehicle – I sold it because of that. We had two fridges; I sold one of them. I sold everything to buy beer. I was only left with my TV and a bed to sleep in. If you came close to me, you would sense the smell of my beer. It got to the extent that my whole body smelt of beer because sometimes I wouldn’t bathe. I would start to have a headache that was unstoppable – then something would come to m and tell me to get rid of my life.” Even while performing his duties as a heavy truck driver, Alex would drive under the influence of alcohol; astonishingly however, he was able to avoid accidents. “I used to hide alcohol at work. Even when I was driving, behind my seat you would find a carton of my beer.”

The downward spiral continued for Alex, bound in what could be termed as slavery to the spirit of alcohol that had totally engulfed his existence. It was the December of 2008 – over three years since he had last seen or spoken to his wife when his life dramatically changed. “One Sunday morning, a friend of mine came to find out whether I was at home,” explained Alex, who had been drinking throughout the nights of Friday and Saturday. “He asked me if I had a decoder in my living room.” In tune with his answer, the friend entered his house and fiddled with the apparatus before tuning in to a particular television station. “He increased the volume and then joined me outside on the veranda where I was drinking. After a while, he heard the voice of the man of God preaching.” Alex’s friend had tuned to Emmanuel TV, and it was the start of a live Sunday Service from The SCOAN with Prophet T.B. Joshua. “By the time he heard the man of God say, ‘Distance is not a barrier! Let us pray for the viewers’ – he said to me, ‘Alex – you need to come and watch this.’ ” Literally forcing the reluctant drunkard to enter his house, his friend brought him before the television. “He told me: ‘Come – I need you to touch the screen’. I told him, ‘No, let me just watch the man.’ Then he just grabbed my hand and forcefully put it on the screen. At that moment, the man of God said: ‘Whatever is not of Jesus – out!’ That’s when I went out on the ground.” Rolling uncontrollably on the floor of his living room, Alex was receiving a remarkable deliverance as a church service some thousands of miles away in Lagos, Nigeria progressed. The spirits tormenting his life and family were being chased out. “I must have been there for over 10 minutes. All I remember is that the man of God shouted, ‘In the name of Jesus – you are free’ and I just woke up at once, sweating profusely.”

Alex slowly got up, several neighbours having gathered due to the commotion, stared at him in amazement. The darkness that clouded his blood-shot eyes had gone. “I looked around and the first thing I asked was: ‘Where is my wife?’ My friend who had put on Emmanuel TV and all my neighbours started crying. They told me ‘Alex, your wife left you over three years ago.’ I couldn’t believe it. I went to the bedroom and started checking for my wife’s clothes. Then I discovered it was true – my wife was no longer with me. I began to cry.” Alex asked for a drink of water and a disbelieving neighbour brought out both bottles of water and beer, asking him to choose. He chose water.

The following day, Alex took a fortnight’s leave from work and started a desperate journey back to Zambia to find his wife. Discovering that his five children were scattered throughout the community and that his wife had returned to her father’s house, he set out to meet her. The passion to reunite was so deep that the journey of four days took him only two, to the point where he was 15km from the village of his father-in-law but with no transport available. “I walked the 15km on foot with the rain pouring and soaking me throughout. It was 1.00 when I finally arrived.” In the dead of night, Alex stood before his wife’s house and cried out. “When my father-in-law heard my voice, he said, ‘Alex, is that you?’ He then turned to shout, ‘Maria – your husband is here!’ ” It was a glorious moment, an unprecedented reconciliation upon 10 minutes in front of a unique television station. “Everyone was crying and we were hugging one another. In the morning, we had a meeting as a family. I had to explain to them what happened and how I got delivered through Emmanuel TV. They were surprised because what they heard about me and what they were seeing was a totally different thing. I knelt and apologised in the presence of the family, but my father-in-law stood me up and said: You remain our son. They killed a goat and we ate and celebrated together.” “It was a wonderful day,” recalled Maria. “Despite all that had happened, we were so happy to see him back in our lives – because we didn’t stop loving him. We were always praying for him and asking God to intervene in his situation – and He did!” After one week, the reunited couple returned to Botswana.

A family reconciled

Alex’s remarkable encounter with God through Emmanuel TV signalled the last alcoholic drink he took, as well as the birth of a new relationship with Maria. “It’s like we have just been married. I never realised before how beautiful my wife is! Now when I am off work, I will be in the house, working and eating together with her. I also reunited with my children, and they came back to spend holidays with us.” It can be genuinely called a total transformation. “Thank God for the man of God, Prophet T.B. Joshua and Emmanuel TV for what they have done – they have brought life to my life. I was a dead person who had nothing in the head apart from beer – beer was my focus. If I didn’t have a beer, I didn’t have anything. But today, I am a different person, I don’t even think about beer anymore, not a single craving.” For Maria, it’s as if she has a new husband. “There is a big, big difference in his life – now he is a new man. We can share the Bible together; we can pray together, we can do all things together. No more drinking. No more fighting. No more shouting. He is even a preacher of the Word of God now! We are enjoying our relationship!”

Her advice to couples about entering marriage is on the necessity of involving God. “I will advise those who are entering into marriage to invite God into their life, because a marriage without God has a limit but with God – all things are possible. To my fellow people out there, hold fast to God – our God is a good God, He never fails. Jesus is a conqueror – and once you believe in Him, you too are a conqueror with Him.”

Alex’s advice, informed by an unforgettable life-experience, is simple: “Thank God that I can give you these words of advice: do not go into alcohol. Rather choose the Lord Jesus Christ, who will give you life, who will give light to your future. Not beer – beer doesn’t give life. Beer only spoils your life and kills you in a manner that the more beer you drink, the older you become, the more you destroy yourself – your life will be miserable. Let’s hold fast to God, not the things of this world. Let’s have a new life in Him that will never put us in misery, a new life that will always bring joy and happiness. God created us in His own image and He wants us to follow His ways. How lucky we are that we are given Emmanuel TV! We’ve been given the prophet – Senior Prophet T.B. Joshua. He is not the prophet of Nigeria; he is a prophet of all nations. He is a prophet that is given to us to change our lives. Like me personally speaking now – if you saw me some years ago, you would shed tears. The tears you would be shedding are tears of joy that Emmanuel TV and its partners with Prophet T.B. Joshua have brought life to me today. I, Alex, am alive today because of Emmanuel TV. All I can say is thank you! I thank Jesus for saving my life and for giving me another chance!”

THE SITUATION IN NIGERIA

The congregation was eagerly anticipating what the man of God, Prophet T.B. Joshua would say regarding the crisis in Nigeria, knowing that as ever, he would speak forth God’s opinion concerning the situation at hand.
In the first part of the message to the nation of Nigeria which dwelt on the political situation in Nigeria, the prophet said, ‘Nigeria has prayed and hoped but the thing that is yet to be done is to apply love’. Quoting 1 Corinthians 13:13, he said there are only three things in this earth that will last and these are faith, hope and love. The greatest among them, he said, is love. In his words, we need to make the greatest sacrifice. Our president is the person who should make the greatest sacrifice and other participants will follow. The message to Nigeria is compromise; love is compromise, to give chance for peace in the interest of the nation. In close reference to the Bible, he said Jesus gave chance for peace when he said, ‘Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s’. By compromise, he elaborated, we must shift ground. We should not give the impression of embarrassing the president and the other participants in the crisis. To achieve this easily, our president must rely more on politicians than on technocrats because it is a game.

In the second part of the message, the prophet dwelt on our relationship with Jesus. According to him, Jesus said to Peter, “Do you love me?” Peter replied, “You know I love You Lord”. Jesus said, “If you love Me, feed My lambs”. In the nation, we need to apply love, the greatest sacrifice, by shifting ground, by compromise. In the prophet’s words, Jesus asked Peter one of the most significant, penetrating and, in fact, the most dangerous questions ever asked, “Do you love me?” Jesus asked Peter three times and Peter replied positively three times. Jesus responded by giving Peter a responsibility- keep My lambs, shepherd My sheep and feed My sheep. This means, he explained, before we can be responsible to Jesus, it must be because of our love for Him. Whatsoever you do or fail to do to the least of your fellow brothers, that you do unto Jesus. This means if you dupe your fellow brother, then you dupe Jesus. If you care for your fellow brothers, then you care for Jesus. Jesus did not ask Peter if he was a gifted speaker or had the ability to speak fluently, flawlessly or eloquently. He never asked him about his Bible or seminary knowledge either. All these are important but they are not the issue. The essential quality you need is found in Jesus’ question, “Do you love Me?”
Whatsoever you do to the needy, that you do unto Jesus. What is your relationship with Jesus? The prophet asked. Speaking further, he said he did not know how one could prosper in life without these qualities in the ministry of the Gospel and that of charity. Whether educated or not, a farmer or professor, there is hope in loving Jesus. He therefore advised the congregation to stop complaining about their backgrounds or other disadvantages.  Jesus repeated the question so that the concept would be crystal clear. Jesus wanted us to know that love is the centre. Christianity is a relationship; you cannot have Christianity without love. A person who does not love cannot be entrusted with the power to deliver, heal or bless.
HIGH COURT JUDGE GIVES IN GHANA
The prophet capped his message with a video clip of a high court judge in Ghana who shelved his social status and travelled far to the Volta Region of Ghana by the dusty roads and by river to give to the needy and elders in Chindere, Ghana. Justice John Ajet-Nasam and other Emmanuel TV Partners brought rice and other food to the elders in the Volta Region for the people in the community.

GOD IS ON TOP OF THE SITUATION IN NIGERIA
Concluding his message with the situation in Nigeria, the prophet asserted that the national protest and strike in Nigeria was over as God Himself was on top of it. He reminded his listeners that the lesson the nation can learn out of this is that anything can happen. Therefore, in everything, we should remember God.

BROKEN FOCUS IS THE REAL REASON MEN FAIL
In a brief message during the second service, Wise Man Harry reiterated that broken focus is the real reason that many people fail. He quoted Philippians. 3:13-14 to back up his case. According to him, you cannot look in different directions at the same time. He told his listeners that as Christians, God has disconnected them from their past and given birth to their future. He advised them to chart a clear objective in life and follow the direction of their calling in order to make a difference in their worlds.

PROPHECY ENDS BARRENNESS
A video clip showed Wise Man Harry giving prophecy to a couple. Speaking to the man, the wise man told him that he could see a manhood problem in him and secondly, after he had finished urinating and pulled up his trousers,  urine would still come out  afterwards and stain his trousers. The problem of manhood, according to the prophecy, had caused fighting between the couple. At the end of the prophecy, prayed for Mr Asekome and he received his deliverance, in Jesus’ name. Coming into the open to confirm the prophecy, Mr Asekome said he had had the problem of poor erection for years because of staphylococcus. The couple had consequently been barren and gone to places in search of a solution. They came to The SCOAN as part of their efforts to end the barrenness. Meeting at home as a couple after the prophecy and deliverance, the family of Asekome received the good news at the end of the same month, that Mrs. Asekome was pregnant. Unable to hide their joy after many years of barrenness, the couple encouraged those watching them who might have similar problems to hold on to their hope and continue to trust in God.

ANOINTING WATER PUTS END TO BARRENNESS

David  and Franca from Ghana gave a testimony about the Anointing Water. David’s problem was low sperm count which caused the couple to be barren for years in spite of their yearnings and efforts to bear children. However, after watching Emmanuel TV in their home, the couple journeyed to The SCOAN in their continued efforts to end the barrenness. They received the Anointing Water in The SCOAN and went back to their home in Ghana where they prayed with the Anointing Water and ministered it to themselves. After a month, Franca became pregnant. Confirming the testimony as told by her husband, Franca, in unison with her husband, thanked the Lord for being so merciful to them.

ANOINTING STICKER SAVES MAN’S LIFE
Mr Austin Jerry Okoro, a Nigerian resident in South Africa, was privileged to receive the Anointing Sticker from a relative. As providence would have it, he stuck the Anointing Sticker to the windshield of his car. In June, Mr Okoro was involved in a very serious accident with the car. The accident made the car fly over a brick wall and hit a tree, causing it to be smashed, dented and so disfigured that it gave the immediate impression of having lost the lives of all its passengers in the accident.  All those who were alerted by the scene never thought there would be a survivor in the accident. Fortunately Mr Okoro, the owner and sole traveller in the car, did not even have a scratch on him due to the accident. Surprised and confused, his sympathisers advised him to go to a doctor for a medical check up in case he had an internal injury. When he was taken to a hospital for that, it was confirmed that he hardly sustained any injury in the accident. According to him, Jesus saved his life  through the medium of the Anointing Sticker he received from The SCOAN. He consequently advised his listeners to watch Emmanuel TV, letting them know that God can use any medium to heal, bless and deliver them.

MASS PRAYER FREES PEOPLE FROM DEMONIC BONDAGE
In the mass prayer collectively led by the wise men, they focused on the various areas of life where people have problems and cited relevant portions in the Bible to prove that demons are the causes of the problems people experience. They therefore prayed fervently with the congregation and Emmanuel TV viewers worldwide to command satan out of their lives for them to live according to the will of God in their destiny. In course of the mass prayer, many vomited out the poisonous substances freeing them from the sicknesses in which they were held in bondage for a long time. Assured that every participant in the mass prayer had been dislodged from the grip of satan, Wise Man Racine said the grace.

TB JOSHUA – THERE WILL BE FREE MOVEMENT AS FROM MONDAY

On Sunday 15^th January 2012, at around 12pm, TB Joshua addressed the nation of Nigeria in his sermon, saying that the crisis and the restrictions are over. He said, “People of Nigeria – the issue of crisis, put it behind you. Some of you are worrying that you will not go out on Monday and that you will be restricted. No. God is on top of it. He is in control”. He said that there would be free movement on Monday and that the protests would be over as from Monday. He added that there would be a consensus between the government, labour leaders and civil society groups; they would agree to shift the ground.

He emphasised that the lesson we can learn from this is that in this world, anything can happen. He said: “What we have experienced last week, we have never experienced in this country. Therefore, in everything remember God. When you are eating, when you are sitting, remember God”.

THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE

Wise Man Christopher

Wise Man Christopher, with his usual fervour, issued his message which he titled, ‘The Weapons Of Our Warfare’ to the congregation and cited many portions of the Bible to make his case clear. In his words, the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but spiritual through God in pulling down every demonic stronghold. The Word, he clarified, is not on the written page of the Bible but in the lips of the believers. As Christians, you need to fill your mind and heart with the Word to speak it. In Matthew 4 : 1-11, Jesus gave Christians the battle plan when He spoke directly to the devil in the wilderness. You need to learn the value of God’s Word on your lips to confront the devil victoriously. In Ephesians 6:17, the Bible tells us that those who overcome satan will be required to use the power of the spoken Word. David, in 1 Samuel 17:45 – 50 used the Word of God in his heart as a weapon to defeat Goliath. David’s first victory was therefore in the choice of the right weapon, which was the Word of God on his lips. As Christians, Jesus has given us the Word of God as a special weapon that no power of satan can withstand. Whatever your giant or mountain, you, as a Christian, can address it with the Word of God and achieve total victory. Prayer in the power of the Holy Spirit is the most formidable weapon, the wise man concluded his message.

WOMAN EFFECTUALLY DELIVERED FROM EATING HER HAIR

A week after her deliverance, Mrs Josephine Eseme Jimmy, standing beside her husband, happily gave thanks to God for her deliverance as, according to her, the urge to eat her hair had completely disappeared. Josephine came to The SCOAN the previous Sunday for deliverance from addiction to eating her hair, including those on her head, armpits and private parts. She said the addiction took form after she heard a voice ordering her to eat her hair. The unusual behaviour was cultivated before her marriage and had continued since then for a length of 23 years. After her confession, Josephine was delivered in the mighty name of Jesus by Prophet T.B. Joshua who told her that she was free and would not eat her hair anymore. She said that in her dream two days after the deliverance, the demon appeared to her to lure her to the old act but immediately, the man of God also appeared and the demon ran in fear. The man of God then held her and she woke from sleep. That was the end of her addiction to eating her hair. The couple thanked the prophet one more time for being used by Jesus to bring about her deliverance. In reaction, the prophet once more established the difference between authority and power. In his words, knowing facts about Jesus does not change your relationship with Him. He however added that your reward for a relationship with Jesus is power.

SPIRITUAL HUSBAND’S HOLD RELEASED IN JESUS’ NAME

A video clip on the events of the previous Sunday service showed Wise Man Daniel as he laid hands on the congregants. A woman among them,Mrs Alberta Boakye from Ghana reacted by manifesting the spiritual husband in her.

The spirit, speaking through her, said Alberta was his wife who disobeyed her to marry an earthly husband. The spirit added that it had destroyed the husband’s ministry for that reason. The spirit also said their second child could not learn because of the punishment by the spiritual husband. She was then delivered after prayer from Wise Man Daniel. Standing by her pastor husband as she gave her testimony, Alberta revealed that she sensed the spiritual husband in her life at the age of 16 when it used to have sex with her in her dreams. The spirit had been a thorn in their marriage of ten years, causing her to inflict emotional pain on her husband all the time. Under the influence of the spirit, she became the husband and took delight in issuing orders to her husband and beating him. She was however relieved to be free after her deliverance.

In response to the prophet, Pastor Nicholas the husband chronicled all the shameful treatment his wife inflicted on him under the influence of the spiritual husband. She would wake up and ask her husband in the dead of night to clean the house and wash the dishes. When she knew it was fasting time for her husband, she would deliberately set food before him to break the fast unjustifiably. Either she would meet the husband in the church to fight and embarrass him or prevent him by force from going to church after he was ready. On such occasions, the pastor whose church had branches in other countries, would call his fellow pastors in the church to ask them to carry on as he was still ‘waiting on God’. He lost his congregation to other churches and the branches closed because of the wife’s abnormal behaviour. A king of the community who attended his church withdrew his membership because of the wife’s behaviour. After praying for the deliverance of the pastor, Prophet T.B. Joshua assured him that he would assist him to reactivate his ministry and re-open the branches. Asked to comment on her husband’s confession, Alberta, in unmistakable remorse said, ‘I feel bad and sad’ and bemoaned satan for all that her husband had suffered in her hands. Prophet T.B. Joshua ended the episode by explaining that it was the evil spirit inside the wife that was responsible and now that she was delivered, her husband should not remind her of the past.

MAN DELIVERED FROM THE SPIRIT OF MASTURBATION

Mr Solomon Ogheneovo

A man from Delta, Nigeria, Solomon Ogheneovo by name, told the congregation of himself as a victim of the spirit of masturbation for 24 years. He thought that getting married would stop the embarrassing act but in fact, it continued. Even after marriage, he masturbated at least every day. After unsuccessful efforts, which included fasting and prayer, on his part to stop it, he finally decided to seek the face of the Lord in The SCOAN. After receiving the Anointing Water, he gathered his family and they prayed with it. That prayer, according to him, marked the end of his masturbation. He thanked God for using the prophet to bring an end to this torment in his life.

ANOINTING WATER RESTORES MENSTRUATION

Mrs Mercy Anthony

Mrs Mercy Anthony told listeners how she regained her menstruation which ceased for seven years, completely unresponsive to her efforts to reactivate it. She said a good Samaritan gave her a virtually empty bottle of the Anointing Water which she topped with water, prayed with and ministered on herself. Following that, her menstruation miraculously reappeared. She ended her testimony by advising all her listeners to trust God who has an answer to whatever problems they might have.

ANOINTING WATER RESTORES MEMORY AND FETCHES PROMOTION

Rahamat Yusuf Suleiman had an accident in April which, among other injuries, affected her memory. This affected her reading and preparation for her promotion examination in her workplace. The result was that she failed the examination and was denied promotion. After efforts elsewhere to find a cure had failed, she sent a friend to The SCOAN for the Anointing Water.

On receiving the Anointing Water, she prayed with it and sprayed it on herself, particularly her forehead. Soon after, to her amazement, she vomited an earthworm. The Anointing Water gave her total healing and following her prayer with it before going for another promotion examination in her workplace, she found the questions the same as the ones she had read, making her pass the examination with ease. As she gave her testimony, Rahamat displayed her promotion letter which was the outcome of her success in the examination. Rahamat advised her listeners to go to the Lord always for a solution to their problems.

Two of the many states in Nigeria that were visited by The Emmanuel TV Team were Yobe and Borno in the far north of the country. The team set off with two trailers each filled to capacity with rice and flour, in addition to cash gifts. The venue for the meeting with the Emmanuel TV Team was General Hospital Leprosy Centre, Maiduguri. People gathered from all around Borno State to attend the meeting.

The team sent by T.B. Joshua presented the community leaders with cash gifts and the bags of rice were distributed among everyone, regardless of race, faith or background. The Bible teaches us that we should love our neighbours as ourselves. In the same vein, various gifts were also dispatched to the needy and elderly people in Kremenchuk, Ukraine. In the Asian continent, Lahore, Pakistan was also visited with bags of rice, flour and other gift items.

FINANCIAL AID TO VISUALLY IMPAIRED STUDENTS

In the course of the service, five visually impaired students from the University of Jos were led to the platform where they narrated their financial problems as students, one after another.

Yakubu, a student of Special Education and Rehabilitation Sciences, was the first to bare his mind about his financial needs as a student and concluded that he needed the sum of N92,000.00 to pay his school fees and solve other problems as a student. The rest, in turn, also spoke, explaining that as students, even the money to release their results was hard to come by. Upon listening to their complaint, the prophet directed that their needs be met. Consequently, a total sum of N284,300.00 and bags of rice were disbursed among them.

MASS PRAYER FREES ALL

T.B Joshua

Praying in the power of the Holy Spirit, Prophet T.B. Joshua led the congregation and viewers worldwide in a powerful time of mass prayer. Many vomited the poisons long buried in their systems, thus receiving their freedom. The prophet prayed for the total release of his listeners in many areas of their lives, including their finances, businesses, marital lives among others. He also prayed for the restoration of their destinies and health. In the course of the mass prayer, the prophet issued prophecies to some people who, in reaction came forward to confirm the prophecies. Confirming that the entire congregation had been delivered and was free, the prophet proceeded to say the grace and bring the service to a close.

THE PERMANENT SOLUTION

Wise Man Christopher opened the service by assuring the congregation that satanic authorities over their homes and businesses would be broken, in the name of Jesus Christ.
He started his message by saying that there are two classes of people seeking a solution. The first class does not identify the cause of the problem but the second does and as a result receives a permanent solution

The wise man chose ‘The Permanent Solution’ as the title of his message and opened his Bible to Mark 2:1-5 as the proof text. He explained that the permanent or lasting solution gives lasting prosperity, healing, peace and blessing forever. Citing Romans 5:12, he said man has lost the lasting relationship with God through sin. In his words, Jesus came because the relationship between God and man was broken. His mission was to restore the relationship. Jesus Christ needed love, forgiveness and grace to restore the broken relationship. This, he said, is echoed in Luke 23:24 where Christ said, ‘Father forgive them for they do not know what they are doing’. This statement, the wise man said, applies to everybody today. Building on this, Wise Man Christopher advised that we must show forgiveness in our relationships; for where there is forgiveness there is a solution. Forgiveness of sin deals with the cause of the problem. Jesus identified sin (Mark 2:2-5) as the cause of the sickness of the paralytic. Those seeking a solution to their problem should identify the cause and seek a lasting solution to it. Problems recur because people never identified the causes and dealt with them. This is why many people who are blessed today become poor tomorrow, a healthy man relapses into sickness and a landlord becomes a tenant. This is also why people bother about blessing rather than sin which is the cause of poverty; comfort rather than sin, the cause of discomfort. Sin in the soul is the cause of sickness, poverty, career failure and instability in economic life. Bothering about a problem without identifying the cause cannot give a permanent solution.God separated light from darkness (Genesis 1:3-5). When we sin, we belong to the kingdom of darkness. Jesus is the way out of darkness. In Ephesians 5:8, those in darkness because of sin were released into light in the Lord. Jesus, the glorious Light, has come to dispel all darkness. When born again, we are taken from the satanic kingdom of darkness. This is a reality, not an idle imagination. We cannot receive it by merit but by the grace of God. By grace we are called to be forgiven. King David knew this in Psalm 51 where he pleaded for God’s mercy. To King David the mercy of God was like a blank cheque for prosperity and the goodness of life. He was simply confessing his sins for the salvation of his soul. We should not doubt God’s desire and ability to help us. We should consequently not leave any sin in our heart without confessing it. Let us admit that we are guilty and trust in God’s ability to make us clean. What happens to you if you have everything while yet in sin? Whatever you have will face greater challenges that your fame cannot stand (Romans 6:2-3). Christianity is a relationship with Jesus that lasts forever. You need cleansing to enjoy the relationship and all its blessings. The comforts of this world cannot earn you peace. Many are on the sickbed in spite of their wealth and position. Jesus Christ is the permanent solution. When He heals you, He does so effectually and when He blesses you, it is forever. Follow Jesus for He is the road map to the lost, the bread to the hungry and the water to the thirsty. The wise man rounded off his message by praying for his listeners to embrace Jesus, the permanent solution.

GOD IS STEPPING INTO YOUR SITUATION TODAY
T. B. Joshua assured the congregation that God who makes a difference in people’s lives was stepping into their situation to make poverty, hardship, sickness, and all forms of limitation things of the past. Whatever the situation, he said, God has stepped into it to make a difference in your life. God’s power is so real, authentic and forceful that it cannot be limited by time or space.

THE HOLY SPIRIT STEPPED INTO A MARRIAGE
The congregation and viewers worldwide then listened to Mr & Mrs Onokohoa who told the tale of a troubled marriage and gave testimony to the mighty deliverance they had received after receiving prayer from Wise Man John Chi. A video clip showed an episode where Wise Man John Chi met a woman as he laid hands on the congregants. The reaction to the prayer was not from the woman but the spiritual husband in her. In anger, the evil spirit told listeners that he married the woman years back in her childhood but somebody brought her to church for deliverance against his will. The spirit went further to disclose the havoc he had done in her life, killing her child and destroying her, as she wanted to free herself from his grip. In response to the wise man’s questions, the woman, under the influence of the evil spirit, disowned her earthly husband and identified clearly with the spiritual one who even warned her not to go close to the earthly husband. The evil spirit told listeners that he had put something in her waist that disturbed the development of her unborn baby and caused her to menstruate while pregnant. As the evil spirit was commanded to leave the woman in the name of Jesus, it shouted ‘I surrender’ and she fell down. Mrs Faith Onokohoa from Bayelsa, Nigeria and her husband then came into the open to confirm the deliverance and share her experiences. In addition to confirming all the evil spirit had said, Faith said the spirit made her lose affection for her husband because it had always laid between them at night and took over the husband’s marital role. For over three months, she never had any sexual intimacy with her husband as a couple. She would also eat in her dreams. All their efforts to free her from the malevolent grip of the evil spirit remained unsuccessful until they came to The SCOAN after watching Emmanuel TV in their home. In his testimony, her husband, Mr Francis Onokohoa added that at night, he would feel the vibration and creaking of their bed even when his wife was apparently enjoying her sleep. In addition, he confessed, the evil spirit gave him weak erection. The couple however confessed that after the deliverance the relationship between them became very normal. As well as confessing feeling lighter after the deliverance, Mrs Onokohua advised all those who had similar problems to look up to God and trust Him for a solution.

ICE CUBES FOR BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNER
Mrs Antoinette Koko, from South Africa mounted the platform and stunned her listeners that she had come to The SCOAN with the problem of addiction to eating ice cubes for the past fifteen years. The addiction to eating ice cubes, according to her, started in 1996 in a restaurant where she and a friend of hers used to spend time together often drinking cold drinks and eating ice cubes. It soon became a habit. However, while her friend soon dropped the habit, Antoinette’s grew stronger and led to an uncontrollable addiction. Even as a wife to a medical doctor, she kept ice cubes in her deep freezer to satisfy her appetite in disregard of her husband’s warning against it. She ate an average of 3kg of ice cubes daily and preferred to eat ice than food. She fainted twice because of the habit leading to blood transfusion on two occasions. She was however unable to stop and none of the places they went to for a solution were helpful. The congregation sat shocked as they watched a video clip of Antoinette a day earlier, consuming a whole bowl of ice cubes, crunching them just as if they were biscuits. During deliverance, the prophet invited her for a handshake with him but as she came close, her outstretched hand started shivering and later she fell down and the evil spirit that had caused this addiction in her life left her forever. After her deliverance, she was offered another bowl of ice cubes, but after putting one into her mouth, repulsed by the now unpleasant experience, she spat it out again, declaring that she no longer had the desire to eat ice cubes. “Before it was like food to me, but now it is just like water” she said, with tears in her eyes, as she glorified God for what He had done.

A STRANGE DESIRE TO SNIFF AND EAT MARKER PENS
In succession to Mrs Koko, Mrs Miriam Akande of Osun State, Nigeria came forward with her daughter to plead with the pastor, Prophet T. B. Joshua for the deliverance of her daughter, Miss Miracle Akande whom she said had cultivated the habit of sniffing and eating marker pens. The mother said she was very depressed when she discovered her daughter’s habit. She said the Lord led her to The SCOAN where the Lord said a new thing would happen in her life. She added that her daughter would sniff as many marker pens as she laid her hands on, easily able to consume more than 8 pens per day. Her daughter also enjoyed the smell of petrol, kerosene and methylated spirits.In her confession, Miracle disclosed that the habit started in class when they noticed an unusual odour. Later, it was discovered that it was their teacher’s leaking marker that caused the odour. Unlike the rest of the class, Miracle enjoyed the smell, formed the habit outside the class, and enjoyed it for one and a half years. One of the results of the addiction was that her academic performance had declined. A video was shown of how Miracle would first excitedly sniff a marker pen and then chew it until all the ink had gone.

T.B. Joshua then prayed for her in the power of the Holy Spirit and she fell to the ground. She stood up, delivered and free from the spirit that had been tormenting her. She was offered some marker pens but she immediately shunned the offer and then advised other children to heed the advice of their parents as they were interested in their welfare.

 

 

FIBROID MELTED AND TUBES UNBLOCKED
Mrs Elizabeth Kanberuka of Namibia also testified to her healing from a uterine fibroid which had caused headaches and vomiting before she would menstruate. The doctor who confirmed her uterine fibroid and tubal blockage had advised her to go for an operation. She however decided to come to The SCOAN where she received the Anointing Water. After prayer at home, she ministered the Anointing Water on herself. When she went for a test later, she was told that she no longer had the problem of uterine fibroid, that her tubes were now normal and that an operation was no longer needed. She advised her listeners and Emmanuel TV viewers worldwide to believe and trust God, even in the midst of their problems

THE BEST POLICE DRIVER IN ZIMBABWE
Mr Innocent Mukanganwa happily addressed his listeners from the platform about the miracle he received by ministering the Anointing Water, in Jesus’ name. He entered into a competition with his five-months of driving experience among other more qualified and seasoned drivers some with many years of driving experience. Lo and behold, he clinched the prize as Zimbabwe’s best police driver of the year.

TIME TO REWRITE FAMILY HISTORY
Prophet T.B. Joshua told viewers worldwide that now was the time to break generational curses and rewrite family histories of limitation, hardship, poverty, sickness and backwardness.
He led the congregation and the viewers as the real, authentic and forceful power of God wrought miracles, signs and wonders blessing the lives of all present and watching worldwide.

The congregation dispersed thanking God individually from the bottom of their hearts for the grace of witnessing the evidence that truly, distance, time and circumstance are no barrier to the power of God. To the Lord’s power, nothing is impossible.
