Jeremiah 8:22 – says “Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
Prophet Jeremiah had questioned the people of Judea earlier.
It is on record that Our Savior Jesus Christ has often been referred to as the Balm of Gilead because of His remarkable healing power.

The people of Judea had long disobeyed God and He shut His doors against them too. They rejected the practice and principles. They began to worship graven images as their gods.
And God spoke to them through Prophet Jeremiah (today) Prophet Sunday Obi, God’s own general, the giant of Africa and the Servant of God via Friday’s Service, through weekly counseling and prayer mountain to turn their way and embrace God, but they never hearken to his instructions.
But today, in No 11 Otu Ansa street Calabar, Prophet Sunday Obi is saying “because Jesus Christ is Lord and Saviour, anyone that follows His way shall receive healing, deliverance and blessings in Jesus Name Amen.
The Service started with victory shouts seven times and declarations in the lives of believers and worshippers who braved the weather and was in the service.

Singing “who can battle with the Lord, I say nobody”. The songwriter says Who can battle with the Lord let him show up and face the Lord. Glory!.
Prophet Obi swung into worship songs as he led the chorus for about ten minutes. “E but Chukwu e bu gi mmadu, I am a voice and not a noise, you be God, you no be man etc”.
Really, it was an “uncommon” communion Service where Jesus manifested in Glory.
And the Intercessory prayer was delivered by the Servant of God, Bishop Henry Abiam to the glory of God.
He prayed that all hidden treasures, destiny and goodness in our lives be exposed, let the healing power of God manifest in our lives, let my miracle, favour locate me in Jesus Name Amen.
“Today may I receive grace to attract my miracle from the camps of my enemies”, every secret in my life should locate me, I shall not die, I shall live to reap the fruit of my labour and today I reject every unfriendly friends in our lives, expose them and take them out from my life – Amen!

The Arena Echo International choir as usual was there to present her Special No entitled “You are exalted Unlimited God”. It was marvellous!
The difference is clear and direct showing that his level has changed from grace to grace. Prophet Sunday Obi, strong as ever before, humbly introduced the Guest Speaker, who is no other person than the Son of the Prophet, Victor Onen to the Pulpit.
Speaking on the theme “Is there no balm in Gilead”, Onen says “don’t be too familiar with the Prophet. Obey his instructions because the are God’s words. He is God’s eye on earth. And God saw their Sins. No one mocks God and goes scout free.
Prophet Jeremiah mourned for Judea over their fallen spiritual lives. They had rejected the practice and principles that God showed them.
Furthermore, he says “Jeremiah knew that Judea needed to repent of their sins and prophesied a terrible judgement which would befall them, if they disobey his pronouncements”.
Hear this, “but Judea became insensitive to sin and indifferent to the increasingly intense prophetic warning that came from the lips of the grieving Jeremiah*.
Onen continues, when you disobey God, there is always a consequence or punishment thereafter. There was a fall in Jerusalem. Babylon was held captive. And he Jeremiah cried to God on their behalf and God intervened. Alleluia!.
“Israel was loved by God, but yet they lived in sin. Is there no balm in No 11 Otu Ansa? There is God here. Jesus Christ, the Son of God is doing alot in ARENA – Alleluia!.

The people of Judea were living in sin. They heard the voice of the Lord, but ignored Him. Keep to prophetic instructions. Avoid short cut. Sin brings condemnation and reproach. Come out of your sins because it hinders healing, deliverance and blessings in our lives.
“Today, I want to tell you that there is God in ARENA hence all the signs and wonders. There are testimonies, blessings, deliverance and healing every day in No 11 Otu Ansa street Calabar”.
“God may forgive you, but you must serve the punishment. Sin stops us from hearing from God. Who have you heard or enquired from. Is he God? You must enquire from God in your marriage, career, business and in your spiritual life”.
Onen described Jesus as the balm in Gilead and the balm in ARENA – Glory.
Read the following Bible verses to back up the message: Jer 8:14-15/17-19-22/2kgs 1:3/1Sam 28:7-12. God bless you.
Explaining further, the Servant of God, Prophet Sunday Obi, says “sin is like leprosy. Your sin must fetch you out. Surely, it must. You come to God in ARENA and when you receive you vanish. Your sin is a setbacks.
“There is no joy living in sin. Come out and embrace Jesus who is the giver of life, joy, love and peace”, he says.
He gave Jer 8:22/2chro.28:15/Jer46:11/51:8/G.43:11/Eze 28:17 among others.
“When all hope is lost, He begins a new thing in your life. Jesus is the way, light and the truth. Righteousness is the solution. The heart of man is so decietful.”
“God is abundantly able”
Our Father in the Lord declared victory match and it was observed according to instructions.
There was corporate prayers conducted by the Prophet himselfHe prayed that God should locate us with our balm for healing, deliverance and blessings, against every evil load on our heads where returned to sender in Jesus Name Amen, barbaric altars speaking against us be destroyed in the Mighty Name of Jesus, and as we lift up our hands may He guide and protect us in Jesus Name Amen.

Thereafter, the Servant of God blessed the Communion and Blood before it was shared amongst the congregation.
First timers were duly welcomed and prayed for.
