TRANSCRIPT
The thickness of darkness has no capacity to resist the
shining of light. Scripture recounts, in a prison where
there was darkness all around, the light shone when the
angel of the Lord appeared. Therefore, I pray for you that
your oppression days are over in the name of Jesus.
Acts 12:7—“And, behold, the angel of the Lord came
upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote
Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up
quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.”
Isaiah 60:1—“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the
glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.”
HOW DO WE ACCESS REVELATION?
1. Through the help of the Holy Spirit
Consider this analogy, in the oil exploration industry,
there was a technology invented called a handheld
infrared spectrometer. With this instrument, it became a
lot easier to locate oil deposits and quantify it. Similarly,
as soon as the Holy Spirit comes onboard your life, He
brings all things to your spiritual understanding. As you
engage the Holy Spirit, you will have revelation in the
name of Jesus.
John 14:26
“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the
Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all
things, and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.”
When you have revelation, you have comfort. From this
teaching series, I pray you will discover the solution to that
problem that might be confronting you in the name of
Jesus 1 Corinthians 2:9
“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard,
neither have entered into the heart of man, the things
which God hath prepared for them that love him.
2. Through a hearty search of the Word
Isaiah 26:9—”With my soul have I desired thee in the
night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early:
for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of
the world will learn righteousness.”
Proverbs 20:27—“The spirit of man is the candle of
the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.”
When the solution comes after you have truly searched
with your heart, you must shout for joy. If you truly get a
revelation, you cannot carry an outward appearance of
depression.
Luke 15:7-9
“I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over
one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine

just persons, which need no repentance. Either what
woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece,
doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek
diligently till she find it? And when she hath found it, she
calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying,
Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had
lost.”
Bishop David Oyedepo engaged the Holy Ghost in the
search for the key to prosperity. He settled down with the
Bible and a book authored by Kenneth Copland. He began
to search by reading and meditating until he found his
answer. Once he received the revelation, he immediately
shouted with joy saying, “I can never be poor.” This day,
the Holy Spirit will guide you to the solution you desire in
the name of Jesus.
Amongst other things, revelation empowers our escape
from things that afflict the world around us. When there is
revelation, whatever affects others around us is not
permitted to affect us because we are engaging revelation.
John 8:32—“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth
shall make you free.”
Remember this month is our month of revelation by the
Word. It is what you know that sets you free from
bondage. It is the revelation of the truth that exempts you
from that situation and I see God opening your spiritual
eyes to the revelation you need in the name of Jesus.
Isaiah 60:1—“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the
glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.”
WHAT TO DO TO COMMAND OPEN DOORS
1. Be born again
If your spirit man is dead, the Holy Ghost cannot connect
with you. It is the connection between your spirit and the
Holy Ghost that opens you up to revelation.
1 John 5:4—“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh
the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the
world, even our faith.”
2. Engage the power of revelation
What is the purpose of light if it does not shine in
darkness? Until the light is used and engaged, darkness
will always continue to reign.
Isaiah 5:13
“Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because
they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are
famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.”
Isaiah 60:1-3—“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and
the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. For, behold, the
darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the
people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory
shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to thy
light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.”
If you lack revelation, things will be dry. It is the
revelation that you have that draws others to you.
3. Engage a quality covenant walk with God
God is a God of covenant and as you engage Him via His
covenant, everything will work for you in accordance to
His will. God has vowed never to break His covenant.
Psalm 89:34—“My covenant will I not break, nor alter
the thing that is gone out of my lips.”
Jeremiah 33:20—“Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break
my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and
that there should not be day and night in their season.
Then may also my covenant be broken with David my
servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his
throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.”
If you do not walk in God’s covenant as regards
prosperity, lack and want will have its way with you.
Deuteronomy 8:18—“But thou shalt remember
the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get
wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware
unto thy fathers, as it is this day.”
Malachi 3:8-10
“Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say,
Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye
are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this
whole nation. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse,
that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now
herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the
windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that
there shall not be room enough to receive it.
The moment we remember to engage God in the covenant
of offering and tithing, He will open the doors of heaven
and shower us with blessings. All you need to do is fulfil
your responsibilities and God will do His. Empowerment
connotes exemption from financial hardship.
Malachi 3:17
“And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that
day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a
man spareth his own son that serveth him.”
It is walking in a covenant that makes God to spare you in
the time of trouble.
4. Be guided by the Holy Spirit
When you are led, if there is no door, God will create one
for you just like He led the Israelites through the red sea.
Therefore, I see God creating a door for you where there
is none in the name of Jesus.
Isaiah 48:17
“Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of
Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to
“Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.” - Isaiah 8:16
profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest
go.”
If you are born again, you are entitled to be led by the
Spirit.
Romans 8:14—“For as many as are led by the Spirit of
God, they are the sons of God.”
5. Commit to kingdom stewardship
Matthew 6:33
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his
righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto
you.”
Job 36:11—“If they obey and serve him, they shall spend
their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.”
6. Walk by faith
Matthew 7:7—“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and
ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.”
You have to walk by faith to get every door you knock on
to be opened up to you.
Mark 9:23—“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe,
all things are possible to him that believeth.”
You are a spirit-being hence expected to walk by faith
and not by sight. During an all-night service many years
ago, Bishop was told that the gas in the generator had
finished. Instead of instructing them to turn it off, he told
them to leave it running and God sustained it until the end
of the service. How did it happen? We do not know but
he had enough faith in God to know that God will keep it
running.
7. Engage the anointing of the Holy Ghost
Isaiah 61:1—“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me;
because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good
tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the
broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and
the opening of the prison to them that are bound.”
Luke 4:14—“And Jesus returned in the power of the
Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him
through all the region round about.”
The moment you are anointed, you can never be a
mediocre again. Therefore, every form of mediocrity in
your life will be turned around in the name of Jesus.
Doors can neither shut against the anointing nor the
anointed.
Isaiah 45:1-3
“Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose
right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him;
and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the
two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut; I will
go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I
will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder
the bars of iron: And I will give thee the treasures of
darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou
mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy
name, am the God of Israel.”
What is the effect of anointing upon us as a church?
When shared, the gospel can never be resisted.
Acts 2:37—“Now when they heard this, they were pricked
in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the
apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?”

“We were married for over six years and believed God for
the fruit of the womb. In October 2015, we were
privileged to meet with the Bishop; he prayed and said,
‘Your father never struggled to have children, go and have
the child of your choice.’ Immediately, we determined in
our hearts that we were going to have twins.
At Shiloh 2015, I attended the Mothers and Fathers’ of
Nation sessions and engaged in all the instructions given
to us by the Bishop. In January 2016, Papa said that the
year will require personal engagement to have maximum
delivery of our blessings. Thus, I determined in my heart
that I was going to participate in the 21 days prayer and
fasting and was not going to miss any of the evening
services; and that I did.
When Operation Bring Many was flagged off, my
husband and I went out to preach despite the fact that I
was very strong. Then, the God of Wonder Double visited
our family. For the first time ever in six years I got
pregnant and on November 9, 2016, God gave us
Ayomide Josephine and Ayomiposi Daniela. To Him be
all the glory!” Mr. & Mrs. Ademola Adeyeye
My Case Is Exceptionally Different!
“I relocated to the U.K. in October 2016 to join my
husband and I began to apply for a job. During the
crossover service, Bishop David Oyedepo preached about
what we stand to gain by being obedient and in
conclusion, he prophesied that many new chapters would
be opened to us in 2017 as God manifests Himself.
Then, I redeemed my Shiloh Sacrifice and prayed for the
influx of jobs declaring that I would have a challenge with
which one to choose. Miraculously, in just four months of
relocating to the U.K. from Nigeria, God opened the
floodgates of Heaven and answered my prayers.
I was blessed with two job offers from top banks in the
U.K.; Barclays Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland. The year
2017 is indeed my year of noiseless breakthroughs. I return
all glory, honour, power and praise to the miracle worker, the
unchangeable changer, breaking protocols and operating in
ways we cannot explain! Praise the Lord!”Osarogie Ukato
Cancer Disappeared
This Sunday makes it exactly six weeks of joining this great
commission. The Sunday that precedes my coming to this
Church, I had been to the hospital for a routine check-up and
it was found by the doctor that there was a lump on my
breast. Which confirmed my fear of having breast cancer.
Hence, have had history of cancer running through my
family, had lost four of my siblings to same and currently my
aunt and uncle are suffering from cancer. The sad experience
triggered fear in me that I could be the next. While pondering
on the doctor's report, a sister invited me to this church for
Sunday service. I was given a prophetic mantle which I
placed it on the spot with the lump before the next scheduled
visit. When I went to see the doctor, he carried out the test
and with sinister of confused look on his face; He called other
3 doctors to reconfirm his findings and they did. Bewildered
by his findings; the doctor asked me if “I had gone to see
other doctor prior to his appointment”? I replied have only be
praying to God. He advised that he has to do another
mammogram which he did, and he showed me the x-ray of no
any trace of lump. Indeed, I have finally found a church, I'm a
living proof of the tremendous power of God's healing here;
fear is taken off me. Totally free from any trace of cancer in
my breast.
