Thank You Father

The Lord says there is someone here tonight, He says, this month I will wipe away your tears.

Daddy says there is someone here today; your own day has come at last.

Thank You Father.

Daddy asks me to tell someone here tonight, it does not matter what the enemy may try, you will never hit the ground.

Father we just want to say thank You. Thank You for the past conventions. Thank You for the mighty testimonies. Thank You for what You have done since this convention began; thank You for Monday, thank You for Tuesday, thank You for Wednesday, thank You for yesterday, thank You for today, thank You in advance for tomorrow; glory be to Your holy name. Tonight Father glorify Your name. All that we are asking is that You glorify Your holy name.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Amen.

Let somebody shout hallelujah.

Shake hands with one or two people and say welcome to dominion.

Welcome to dominion.

And then you may please be seated.

Genesis chapter 1 verse 26 to 28…

I won’t be calling you to pray as I continue; I want to lay the foundation so that when you pray tonight, you will be able to pray undisturbed or interrupted until you have dominion.

Genesis 1:26 to 28:

 ²⁶And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

²⁷ So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

²⁸ And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

God created you to have dominion and so if you desire dominion, you are desiring something that is the will of God.

And the Bible says, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us and He will grant our request.

So, let me hear somebody now lift up his or her voice loud and clear and say to God, Father, give me dominion.

I know you tried that we are many here and God says as you have spoken in My hears to so will I do unto you.

Let Him hear you say, Father, give me dominion.

You see, when you read Genesis 27 from verse 30 to 40, you will discover something very interesting there;

Isaac wanted to bless Esua but Jacob came in by trick and got the blessing;

As soon as Isaac finished blessing Jacob, Esau came in and the father discovered I have blessed the wrong fellow.

He said my son, the blessing is gone.

Boy said, it can’t be gone; you have to do something.

He said, I have blessed your brother and he will be blessed.  

Esau said, here today, Papa you have to bless me too.

May I stop at this stage and say in the mighty name of Jesus, all of you who call me Daddy, you shall be blessed.  

The father said, I have already made him your lord.

He said, daddy you have to do something.

The father said, alright, I will give you advice: pursue dominion because when you have dominion, you will break his yoke from off your neck.

Pursue what?

What does that tell you?

It is either you have dominion or you are under yoke - there is no middle way.

You are either head or tail.

You are either above or beneath.

You either have dominion or you are under yoke.

It is either of two and you have to choose one tonight.

Which one do you want?

You better say it as if you mean it.

I am going to explain briefly what do we mean by dominion physically speaking.

I will explain briefly, what do we mean by dominion financially.

I will explain briefly, what do we mean by dominion spiritually.

I will leave the others because of time.

It is good to be healed.

When you read Mark chapter 1 verse 40 to 45 - when a leper was cleansed, he could not keep his mouth shut, he told everybody in the city. 

It is only those who had been sick who will know the value of been healed; particular the one they say it cannot be cured.

I pray for everyone here tonight, it does not matter what the doctor said, you will be healed tonight.

But it is better to be healthy, not to be sick at all.

And then, it is better still when you be the one healing the sick.

In Mark 16, from verse 17 to 18, Jesus said, this sign shall follow them that believe in My name;

And he went down to say, they will lay hand on the sick and they will recover.

And I pray for every one of you, from today onward, not only will you be healthy, when you lay hand on the sick they will recover.

But when your shadow begins to heal the sick, haha, then you have dominion physically.

In Acts chapter 5 verse 14 to 16, the shadow of Peter was healing the sick;

And God can use you at that level.

He has done it before; some of you have seen it in action;

Some of you were there in our very first auditorium when God said to me that there were some people with terrible back problems that for a very long time they were on able to touch their toes

And He asked me to call them out that He wanted to heal them.

I called them out

I thought He will ask me to lay hands on them or slap their back or ask them to lie down and put my foot on their back;

No!

He said, dance round them.

I danced;

I look stupid dancing.

Five minutes later, He asked them to touch their toes.

And they were all healed – everyone of them.

I decree in the Name that is above every other name, from now on, anyone you touched by accident will receive healing in Jesus’ name.

Let me talk about dominion financially:

It is good to be rich.

Don’t let anybody deceived you, poverty is not good; poverty is a destroyer.

That is why the Bible says the destruction of the poor is their poverty.

All of you my children, in the name of Jesus Christ, none of you will die poor.

If anybody tells you poverty is good, ask him, how do you feel when the landlord asks you to get out because you could not pay your rent?

I pray for every one of you my children, you will not die as tenant.

It is good to be rich

Abraham our father was rich.

Genesis 24 from verse 34 to 35, that servant said, I am Abraham servant and God has blessed my master greatly.

Abraham is the father of faith; if God blessed Abraham greatly, it means it is not a terrible thing to be blessed.

The One who blessed Abraham will bless you greatly.

But it is better to be wealthy - Isaac was richer, much richer than his father.

Genesis 26 from verse 12 to 14, the Bible says, Isaac became so rich, the whole nation envied him.

I know a time is coming for someone here when you will be so wealthy, people will be saying – are you the only one serving God.

But it is better than being wealthy to prosper.

Solomon prospered; he was able to offer to God a thousand cows as an offering but he did not stop there.

You begin to have dominion financially when you flourish.

In 2Chronicles chapter 7 verse 5, the same Solomon moved on to offer twenty-two thousands oxen and he was not satisfy with that and he said let me add a couple of thousand of sheep – a hundred and twenty thousand sheep.

I don’t want to tell you how many cows had been slaughtered during this convention to feed the people;

But I can say one thing as my God lives, one of you, even next year will pay for the whole convention.

When do we say you have dominion financially?

When you can do whatever you want to do without looking to anybody for help.

I told two of my boys a funny story not too long ago.

An aunty of mine lost her mother and then because she was very well known, the king of where she was sent a gift to her.

She looked at the gift, I did not beg this king; and then she said I know what I will do.

This is I think around 1968, so I may not remember all the details correctly.

So, she took seven rams, seven he goats, seven turkeys, I cannot remember how many chicken, a hundred tubers of yam, seven big kegs of palm oil, bags of salt; then sent it back to the king.

And told the servant, when you get to the king, greet him and say O king live forever: your daughter said we should give you back your envelope and give you these gifts and tell you with all humility – I can bury my mother.

You see, that level where you will reach that anything at all you want to do, you do not need anybody help – that is when you have financial dominion.

And I pray to the Almighty God for someone here tonight, anytime you want to build a church for God; you just wake up in the morning and tell the contractor, go and build a church there.

Next time you are coming to the convention you will go to any motor company and ask them: how much does a bus cost?

Why?

I need six to carry children to the convention.

If you are the one I am talking to stand on your feet and shout amen.

Thank You Father.

Now, I want to talk to you now about spiritual dominion.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight, He said the pain you feel it is as if somebody is crushing your bone; He asked me to tell you that pain is gone forever.

He also said there is someone here; He said, the one who is trying to choke you in your sleep as already being dealt with.

Spiritual Dominion…

Thank You Father.

The Lord said there is someone here tonight, He said the embargo the enemy placed on your family has been removed.

I want to say amen to this one before I tell you

Because the Lord said there is someone here tonight, He said before the end of this year, I will open a door for you that will be so big that you will not need a help of man again.

Now, when we talk about spiritual dominion:

It is good to be delivered

If you ask the mad of Gadara how good it is to be delivered, he will tell you.

You know about him; you read about him in Mark chapter 5.

But it is better never to have been in bondage.

If a man had been mad before, even if he is completely well now; people still look at him with a little bit of suspicion.

But there is something better than never been in bondage to demons and that is when God begin to use you to set captives free - when you speak and demons jump out

But you have spiritual dominion when you get to the level that your handkerchief can cast out demons;

As in Acts chapter 19 verses 11 and 12, from the body of Apostle Paul they brought handkerchief and aprons to the sick; they were healed; disease departed from them and evil spirits went out of them.

I thank God for all the testimonies we have heard about handkerchiefs that were anointed here.

We did not even touch them; we waved our hands and the power of God went into the handkerchiefs.

Some people did not take them serious;

Some people don’t even know where their own are;

Thank God the Just shall live by faith.

I will be praying again on your handkerchief tonight and the Almighty God will do greater things.

But what I want to spend a little more time talking about before you go to pray…

Thank You Father.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight, (I think I have the rough idea who the fellow might be but you see it is for somebody else too) He said in your husband’s family men do not live long; He ask me to assure your own sons will live long.

I want to talk to you about comprehensive dominion.

Daddy says there is someone here tonight, He said those who are trying to use you as a scapegoat, will fall into their own trap.

I know it is a night of dominion

Lord asks me to tell someone, the one trying to contaminate your marriage will die prematurely.

Dominion can be on a selective basis;

In other words, somebody could have dominion in one area of live and may not have in another area.

In 2Kings chapter 5, Naaman had dominion in all area of live except physical.

He had money, he was famous, he was a General, when he commands things happen but leprosy held him in bondage.

In 2Kings chapter 4 from verse 8 to 17, the Shunammite woman had dominion in all areas of life but she was barren.

She was rich; she was influential; she did not need anybody to introduce her to anyone but she was barren.

Peter, the one whose shadow was healing the sick, had dominion spiritually

But in Acts chapter 3 verse 1 to 8, he confessed that financially speaking he had no dominion – he said silver and gold have I none.

You know I have been there

I was General Overseer living on this camp and because of two naira I won’t be able to go to Lagos because toll gate then you will pay one naira going, one naira coming.

No two naira and I used to tell my wife: it is because God knows there is going to be accident on the way that is why we cannot go.

There was not going to be any accident on the way; we were just broke.

I pray for you one more time, everything you need to do whatever you want to do receive that dominion now in Jesus’ name.

Now, the point is you can have comprehensive dominion.

God has made provision

I wish we have time, I would have asked them to show you the hymn we sang again that we have been given great dominion by the blood of Jesus over sin;

We have been given great dominion over sickness, over disease;

Provisions have been made by the stripes of Jesus;

We have been given great dominion over Satan and all his yokes;

We have been given great dominion over everything.

I have a friend who had comprehensive dominion, his name was Elisha.

Spiritually he had dominion.

Just one word from him who put an end to curses, death, barrenness…

According to 2Kings chapter 2 verse 19 to 22, he spoke a word and say I heal the water of this city – no more death, no more barrenness  -  and the Bible says the waters were healed according to the word that he spoke.

And I want to speak a word to someone here today; every curse in your family is cancel.

He had dominion financially.

In 2Kings chapter 4 verse 8, the great woman of Shunammite, invited him to come and eat in her house, he told her I don’t need your food.

It is not like some of Evangelist I know who looks for places where they can go in and begin to eat other people food.

This man of God said I am not hungry.

Thank God the Shunammite said I know that but you are not going anywhere until you come to my house to eat.

Naaman came to him and said thank you for healing me of leprosy; I brought a lot of money with me, common, take some.

He said go away with your money I don’t need it.

I want to pray for all my Pastors, every one of you, you will not only have dominion spiritually, you will have dominion financially also.

And I will pray for those of you who are not Pastors yet; in the mighty name of Jesus you will have dominion spiritually and you will have dominion financially.

He had dominion physically.

If you read 2Kings chapter 13 from verse 14 to 21, Elisha was sick only once at the age of a Hundred and twenty.

If you are one hundred and twenty, you have tried; he wanted to go and they said sickness took him.

It was not that he has lost dominion spiritually because even after he died his bones still raise the dead.

I don’t know who has enough faith to receive this one but I am praying for someone tonight - till you see Jesus in glory you will never be sick again.

You can have comprehensive dominion that is what I will want you to pray for tonight.

And all it takes, all it will take you is to surrender completely to the One who controls dominion.

James chapter 4 verse 7 says if you will submit yourself to God, you will resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Meaning what?

If you have God behind you, you will have dominion even over the devil.

I will tell you just one story and we will go and pray.

A king, not too far from here, became a Christian; surrendered his life to Jesus completely.

So he called the people in his town; he said, no worship of idols.

But one idol was very popular in the town – his masquerade will come out

So, Kabiyesi said no more masquerade.

The Priest of the masquerade laughed at him.

We have been doing this thing before your father was born, stop us if you can.

He said no problem; we will know whether you are the one who have dominion in this town or I am the one.

Three days before the masquerade was to come out, the high priest died.

So they postpone the day of the masquerade coming out and appointed a new high priest.

Few days before the new date was to come, the new high priest died.

So the other priest said to the one who was next in command, you get ready and we must have our celebration.

That one said, not me.

They said, why?

He said the God of Kabiyesi will kill me.

Every one standing in the way of your dominion, the God Almighty, the God Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Lord of host, the Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle, we swallow them up.

I am going to give you some minutes to pray; if you like pray it gently, it is up to you but this is a night of dominion.

Thank You Father.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight (and that must be me), He said you need just one more breakthrough so that your joy may full, He said you will get it tonight.

I am going to give you an opportunity to pray maybe for about twenty minutes or so

I want you to go before God and tell Him: I am tired of suffering I want dominion – I want dominion physical, I want dominion financial, I want to dominion spiritual, I want dominion in my marriage, I want dominion in every sphere of my life.

If you want to come to the altar you are welcome.

If you want to kneel down, you can kneel down;

If you want to seat, you can seat;

If you want to stand, you can stand.

Cry to the Almighty God and say: Father, I want dominion. I want dominion and I want it tonight; I want dominion tonight; no more yokes; I don’t want to suffer anymore, I want to have dominion in every area of my life I want to have dominion – physically, financially, spiritually, maritally, socially – I want to have dominion. O Lord God Almighty I want to have dominion; I want to have dominion in every area of my life; I want to have dominion Almighty God; I want to have dominion, I want to have dominion, I want to have dominion Daddy; give me dominion Daddy.

God will give you dominion over the flesh, over enemies known and unknown, over poverty, over demons, over failure, over defeats, over fruitless efforts, over sorrow, over fear, God will give you dominion and the dominion will begin now. Every mountain blocking your way shall be moved into the sea. Before the sun rises tomorrow you will sing a new song. God will turn your enemy to your footstool. It shall be so.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Amen.

Praise the Lord.

How many of you believed that you have received your own dominion?

Let me hear you shout a really big hallelujah.

Two things more for us to do and then we will be on our way.

First of all we want to say thank you to God for what He had already done.

Thank You Father.

The Lord says there is someone here tonight; He said before the end of the year you are going to have three victories without a fight.

First of all we want to say thank you to God;

And then I am going to anoint your handkerchief afresh;

And then we are going to use the new handkerchief we just anointed to do three things and I will tell you when that time comes.

Right now let us take our thanksgiving offering and get ready to really really dance – the dance of those who are already in dominion, the dance of triumph; because from now on by the special grace of God you will have something to dance about.

So let us take our thanksgiving offering.

As the musicians will give us music, we will dance to the nearest basket and drop our offering.

Let us do this as quickly as possible and then we will come and anoint your handkerchiefs; then we use them for what God want us to do next. 

Take out your handkerchief

I am going to wave my hand; as I do, I trust my Daddy, He will cause the wind of the Holy Spirit to blow and He will saturate every handkerchief lifted to Him with anointing.

If you don’t have a handkerchief, any piece of cloth will do.

Alright

I am going to be praying in spirit and your own is to say amen.

In the name of Jesus ***praying in the Holy Ghost***

Thank You Father.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

Now you are going to do three things quickly with that your anointed handkerchief.

Anything you are going to do is based on James chapter 4 verse 7: says, if you submit to God and you will have dominion over the devil;

And when there is war and one side want to surrender, they wave a white flag.

First time you are going to wave this handkerchief now, you are waving to God to say I surrender.

So, wave your handkerchief to the most high God and tell Him I surrender; I surrender everything to You – my past, my present, my future – I surrender all; I surrender all; I surrender everything; I surrender everything I can be, I surrender all; I surrender all; I surrender all; I surrender all.

In Jesus mighty name

If you mean that; if you mean what you just said, now is time to resist the devil.

When you wave this handkerchief the second time, you are telling the devil – clear out of my way; clear out of my way. In the mighty name of Jesus clear out of my way; clear out, clear out, clear out of my way; clear out now. In the mighty name of Jesus, clear out now. Satan get out of my way; I command you in the mighty name of Jesus, clear out of my way; every mountain clear out of my way; every demon clear out of my way; sickness clear out of my way; disease clear out of my way; poverty clear out of my way; failure clear out of my way; defeat clear out of my way; Satan clear out of my way, I have surrendered to God clear out of my way; clear out of my way; clear out of my way. Thank You Father.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

And then the third one

When Elijah left, he dropped his mantle; Elisha picked it up.

Within a short period of time, all other sons of prophet said: haa, the spirit of Elijah does rest on Elisha.

My faith in the Almighty God; my faith in the God that sent me, you are going to wave the handkerchief the third time and say: in the mighty name of Jesus I receive the mantle of dominion.

Open your mouth and say it.

I receive the mantle of dominion for the rest of my life; I have the mantle of dominion; I have the mantle of dominion; I will dominate, I will not be dominated; I have the mantle of dominion; I receive the mantle of dominion for the rest of my life. Thank You Father. ***praying in the Holy Ghost***. Thank You Lord.

In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

As you have confessed, so shall it be unto you. From now on when the devil sees you coming the devil we run. Before you get home this weekend, your enemies will have surrendered.
