The Annual Revival of the Foursquare Gospel Church,
Ire-Akari, Isolo started gloriously. With the song: “Glory be to God in the highest, Amen; For His mercies endureth forever,
Amen”, Rev. Charles Ojo led the opening prayer at 6.30pm. The opening
prayer touched every area of human life.
Rev. F.M.O. Iyere, the Zonal Superintendent of the Ire-Akari
Zone and host introduced the Guest Minister. While introducing the Guest
Minister, Iyere said, “If you are not blessed after the Revival, it’s your
fault”. He sang, ‘It’s going to be great today, Mighty God is already here’.
The Guest Minister, Rev. Dr. Henry B. Ogunjewo is an
evangelist, Zonal Superintendent of Oke-Ire and a Lecturer with the University
of Lagos. There was fire as in the day of Pentecost when this servant of God
began ministration. He started with hymns and choruses. “My hope is built
on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness…; On Christ the solid rock
I stand, All other ground is sinking sand; I have no other God but you; You
have done what no man can do; and you will do what no man can do; You are the Lord
Jehovah that answereth by fire. You are the mighty God, how great art Thou,
Halleluyah”.
It was more of prayer than preaching. He loosed and bound demons
responsible for people’s problems. As the Guest Minister prayed,
there was thunderous Amen from the congregants.
He encouraged the congregants not to lose hope in God, citing
Psalm 30:5 which says, “For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is
life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning”.
He read the whole chapter seven of the 2Kings. From the Book
of 2Kings chapter 7 where the theme of the Revival, "By This Time Tomorrow” was taken
from, the servant of God said, true believers should believe in God. He said,
king Jehoram didn’t partake in the blessings of the nation he ruled because of
his disbelief. He prayed that the people would not see blessings of God with
their eyes and not live to partake in them the way it happened to king Jehoram
of Israel. He said, those who do not believe in God are enemies of God, and
such ones will never receive the blessings of God.
