Stronger Than Your Enemies Part 4. Sermon & Prayer Points By Pastor E A Adeboye. April 2018 RCCG Holy Ghost Service.
Stronger Than Your Enemies Part 4: Children Of Conquerors.
Thank You Father.
Hallelujah.
(Tonight, before you begin to praise Him, there is a great danger in getting too familiar with God. Because we are so used to miracles, signs and wonders; we are beginning to take them for granted and these things don’t happen everywhere.
If you are the man who woke up in the morning, thinking that your wife is asleep and suddenly you discover she is not asleep, she is dead and then you remember that the servant of God said last month that the dress you wore (because some of you did not take that word seriously) that the dress you wore that night has been specially anointed.
And you got that dress and somehow rap it round her because by now she is stiff and you are on your way to the hospital and on your way to the hospital your wife came back to life.
I thought, I thought that at that stage if that is the only testimony we heard, at that stage when sudden on the way to the hospital he said my wife came back to life, I thought we will all stand; I thought we will all begin to praise God, I thought we will be begin to glorify Him.)
Why don’t you praise Him?
What He is doing in our midst is not done everywhere else in the world.
Why don’t you praise?
Why don’t you give Him glory?
Why don’t you give Him adoration?
Why don’t you bless His holy name?
Why don’t you bless His holy name?
Give Him glory
Let Him hear your voice;
Let Him hear you praise Him.
Magnify His holy name
If you have ever seen anybody involved in a fire accident, you know that even with all manners of surgeries, everything won’t become the same again;
But this same God, this God, this God, this Almighty that we serve; the One who gave Naman brand new skin proves Himself again, defeated fire.
This same God praise Him.
Give Him glory, give Him honour, give Him adoration.
He is worthy, He is worthy, He is worthy to be praised, He is worthy to be adored, He is worthy to be magnified.
Praise Him
Praise Him
Praise Him for all the mighty testimonies we heard tonight.

Ezekiel chapter 16 verse 44:

So, if the children are going to be blessed, we need to do something about the parents.
