Matthew 5:48
“Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect”.

“And the atmosphere was charged with signs and wonders. The presence of God was manifest in Friday’s Service. It was all through, songs of victory on the side of believers. There was no place for the demonic gatekeepers. The entire environment was tough. No root for an escape. And they were caught up with the Holy Ghost fire – Amen!”

The grace of the Father was upon his Son as the Friday’s Service went on. That grace is enough for him to perform signs and wonders to the surprise of many. It was real. He manifested in His Glory.

There was transfer of spiritual power and the power transcended down to the congregation and gave them victory. First, it was like, this one the Major Prophet is not around, what can the Son do? If only you believe in the Father, your faith will set you free. And those that believed got their instant healing during the service – Alleluia!

Like it is said, every service has its own uniqueness and pattern. It came to pass in Jesus Name Amen. The eyes saw and the ears heard that the Lord is good. The grace of his father was enormous and glorifying during the service.

Before now, it was as if the people will not come at all. The hall was virtually empty with few Ministers and the one or two persons, but saw that it was not ordinary and began to touch them wherever they were shortly after the thirty minutes worship. And there were few more in attendance.

The devil knew that the theme is to liberate those he had kept in captivity and decided to stop them from attending the service. That is his style, to steal, destroy and to kill. But hear this, the few that came went home with testimonies.

Usually, the Intercessory prayer points were unique too. The man of God, Apostle Ubong Thompson prayed according to the word of God.

Oh Lord, let every gate shut against my life be opened in Jesus Name Amen, bring down every evil gatekeepers blocking my progress, raise our children to fight against our enemies at the gate, destroy every evil gatekeepers fighting our destiny helpers, let them die by fire, pull down every evil gatekeepers in our lives, scatter them and finally, we receive every good thing through the gate in Jesus Name Amen.

He referenced the following Bible verses, Psa 24:7/Lam 3:37/4:12/Job 5:12 and 2 Kgs 7:2 respectively.

Interestingly, the thirty minutes worship was rewarding and prophetical. The session ignited the spirit of the congregation in tune with the spirit of God. He manifested in Glory.

The testimonies were glorifying and pleasing to God. The Arena Echo International choir rendered her Special No ” Edi Ebubu, see what God has done”. It was marvelous in his sight.

After the special number, the atmosphere became very charged as Apostle Ubong Thompson ushered the Son of the Prophet, Victor Onen to the Pulpit to present the Word entitled “The Demonic Gatekeepers”.

Taking his text from “Acts 12:4/ Psalms 24:7-9”, saying “Demonic Gatekeepers are not ordinary spirits; they are strategic forces of darkness positioned at the gates of life, families, and even nations”.

He went on saying that “their primary assignment is to control access, to decide what comes in and what goes out. Just as gates determine entry into a city, these demonic powers stand at the gates of marriage, finances, health, opportunities, and destinies, making sure that blessings are delayed, diverted, or completely blocked”.

Also, “they operate by shutting the right doors and opening wrong ones, enforcing cycles of limitation, delay, and frustration. That’s why some people struggle to rise beyond a certain level because a gate is being spiritually policed. Others labor but see little fruit, because demonic gatekeepers are standing at the threshold to resist divine release”.

“But thanks be to God, believers are not helpless. Jesus holds the key of David, and when He opens a door, no one can shut it (Revelation 3:7). By prayer, fasting, and prophetic declaration, we can dethrone demonic gatekeepers and reclaim the gates for God’s purposes.”

“The Word of God commands: “Lift up your heads, O you gates… that the King of glory may come in” (Psalm 24:7). In Christ, we rise as righteous gatekeepers, opening the way for God’s presence and blessings to flow unhindered.

The Word was rich spiritually and opened the eyes of many believers. The glory was returned to God Himself.

Many got their healing, liberation, freedom and blessings after hearing the Word – Alleluia!

Earlier, the Son of the Prophet, Victor Onen, offered the corporate prayers as follows, “Lord, I command every demonic gatekeeper blocking my blessings, progress, and opportunities to be overthrown in the Name of Jesus.

That “By the power of the Blood of Jesus, I decree every gate of delay, oppression, and limitation in my family line to be lifted now.

Finally, that “Lord, establish me as a righteous gatekeeper in my family, church, and generation, that Your Will and Presence may prevail”.

He had earlier appreciated God through praises before presenting the Word.

The service was climaxed with ministration where God showed Himself Mightily. He encountered many that believed in him. His Presence was manifest in glory.

The grace of his Father was enough and sufficient upon his life as he released healing, deliverance and blessings to the congregation

It was another unique and exceptional divine service. The grace of God was upon the Son. He did the Will of His Father.

There shall be Counseling as usual from Monday 17, 2025, as the Prophet and his team have returned back to Calabar. Glory be to God for granting them journey mercies in Jesus Mighty Name Amen.

First timers were duly welcomed and prayed for.

Glory be to the Father, to the Son and to the Holy Spirit – Amen.
