Isaiah 60:1-4 says “Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the L.ord is risen upon you.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.
The Gentiles shall come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising and “Lift up your eyes all around, and see: They all gather together, they come to you; Your sons shall come from afar, And your daughters shall be nurses at your side” – Alleluia!.
It was a very powerful theme – “A new dawn”. It takes a man with a spiritual understanding to know the impact of the theme”.
Oh! what a prophetic and divinely chosen theme for this service. Some may ask, what is so special about a new dawn? It is about a new beginning. It is about a fresh start, renewal, and restoration.
“It is about hope and light, it is about God’s intervention and Spiritual awakening. G.1:3-5.”
And there was light in God’s Arena Of Liberty GOAL aka “Enough is Enough”, penultimate Friday 31, October 2025.
He alone (God) can break darkness to become light. No man on earth has changed any situation, but Our God does when we put our trust in Him.
When our faith begins to carry us towards believing and trusting God, that is the sign of a new dawn in our lives. He is a Perfect Being. No man has ever surpassed His Glory and magnanimity from creation.
And that was what He showed to those who trusted and believed in Him during the service. He took them out of captivity. There was restoration of hope and light – Amen!
There was a new song of Hope, renewal and restoration. There was victory songs in every worshipper that believed and trusted in Him. The Spirit of God which is Light overwhelmed darkness.
The Intercessory prayer points were too harsh for darkness to stand as delivered by Apostle Agnes Arop. She appreciated God for making us see the last Friday in the month of October 2025.
She prayed according to Acts 5:39 saying “but if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it—lest you even be found to fight against God, Lord renew my energy when I am weak and tired – Psa 103:5, what is impossible with man is possible with God – Lk.18:4-27 and I can do all things through Him who gives me strength – Phil.4:13.
Habakkuk 2:3 says “For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry”, God will humble all our mockers and lift us higher and may God repackage us and reintroduce us to those who wrote us off in Jesus Name Amen.
It was really a moment to intercede for our loved ones, children, marriage and the nation at large. It was a powerful session with God Almighty.
The testimonies were glorifying and pleasing to God. As usual, the thirty minutes worship was rewarding. It was touchy and spiritual. The Arena Echo International choir was not left out. She rendered her Special No. “Satan has no power over me”.
God’s own general Prophet Sunday Obi, dispised on the attitude of some worshippers when it comes to appreciating God, frowned bitterly, saying “you are alive today being the last day in October, this is enough reason to say Thank you Jesus”
.
“People are ungrateful to God. God is doing a lot for us. Believe in the Prophet and obey instructions from God. God can not answer us at the same time. He has His own schedule – Amen!”
“Today, as you trust and obey the Lord, God will wipe away your tears in Jesus Name Amen.”.
The moment we have been waiting came as the Giant of Africa, Prophet Sunday Obi humbly, ushered in the guest speaker Pst Mrs Adeline Elemi to the Pulpit to present her message entitled “A new dawn”.
She appreciated God for the life he gave to us to see the last day in the month of October.
Pst. Mrs. Elemi described a new dawn as a the starting of a new beginning. It indicates that there is hope and renewal in our lives. It means that you are transformed from what people used to know you to a new being.
She took her Bible text from Isa 60:-4 to back up her message.
John 1:5 says “And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. John’s Witness: The True Light”.
“When it is a new dawn, your labour begins to manifest like in Proverbs 3:10. It is a new dawn, you are in your season of increase like in Job: 22:29”.
There are benefits of a new dawn: These include, no struggle any longer, (Exd. 14:14), no more fear (Nah.1:9) and Divine Providence (Joel 2:26).
Ways to sustain your new dawn. You must have total repentance, trust in God, remember to do God’s Will, seek the grace of God as well as God’s wisdom.
The following Bible verses are of great importance. Isa 45:18-19/Lk1:78-79/Lam 3:23/2Cor 5:17/Job 42:10-12/2Tim 1:7/Psa 30:56.
Finally, she prayed that God should uproot evil deposits of darkness from my life in Jesus Name Amen, plant new things in my life Oh Lord, let that which hinders me from greatness begin to give way in Jesus Name Amen, Oh Lord, in this my season of a new dawn, let every hidden potentials begin to come forth now in Jesus name Amen and according to today’s theme, a new dawn, restore my wasted years in Jesus Name Amen.
Applauding the guest speaker, Prophet Sunday Obi Enu, had thrown more light on the theme, saying a new dawn is a time to celebrate via God’s divine intervention.
He referenced Job in the Holy Bible how he lost everything he had and when it was time for a new dawn, they were all restored. Same way he restored Job, he will restore hope and light in your life today Amen.
The children of Israel were restored with light and hope when Moses led them out of Egypt. Their era of sorrow, pain and hardship came to a halt – Alleluia!
He dropped some Bible verses for onward study. Exd 14:12/G 12:1/Acts9;4-5/Isa 45:18-19/Isa 43:19 respectively.
The corporate prayers were offered by the Son of the Prophet, Victor Onen as led by the Holy Spirit.
He prayed and gave thanks to God for sparing our lives. He prayed that God should do a new thing in our lives, that those who mocked us should see a new beginning in our lives, any pit digged for us, let our enemies fall inside it, whatever that is planted by the enemies, I uproot them by the Blood of Jesus and let there be a new dawn in our lives Amen!
A special judgemental prayer was offered by the congregation against the person who has been stealing the church chairs. That if he refuses to repent and confess let him die in Jesus Name Amen. The Prophet concluded the prayers at the end of service.
The ministration was divine and glorious in His Sight. The victims were restored from darkness to light as promised by God. It was prophetic and Divine.
God was with His people throughout the duration of the service. The service went as God had planned it to be. The instrumentalists were at their best. The choir was amazing. The congregation was alive. The grace of God flowed with ease and the people got their restoration.
First timers were duly welcomed and prayed for.
