OPENING PRAYER
The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob; the Man of War Himself, we Worship, we Adore You, we Lift You High. Father, be Glorified in Jesus Name.
Thank You for what You have done in our lives in the Past one (1) Year – Thank You for Your Protection, Thank You for Your Mercy, Thank You for Your Love. Accept our Thanks in Jesus Name.
Father, during this week in the lives of all Your Children, Father do something Special, do something Extraordinary, do something You alone can do and let the Miracles begin tonight.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
And let Someone shout Hallelujah – Hallelujah!
Well, shake hands with one (1) or two (2) People and say: Good Evening, God bless you. And then you may Please be seated. God bless you.
You are Welcome in Jesus Name. And I am delighted to see you again.
I want to say Congratulations to those who has Graduated and Congratulations to those who will soon Graduate. And then Congratulations to me – The father of them all.
I get Letters from People who said that they are to be my Successor.
I even had the case of a Woman who said that she is the Successor and she Packed her load, came to the house and say: You need to move out so that I can move in.
Now, you see the reason why you should be Praying for me!
Revelation 5:1-5:
1. And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the Throne a Book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
2. And I saw a Strong Angel Proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the Book, and to loose the seals thereof?
3. And no man in Heaven, nor in Earth, neither under the Earth, was able to open the Book, neither to look thereon.
4. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the Book, neither to look thereon.
5. And one of the Elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the Tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath Prevailed to open the Book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
The Theme for our Conference this Year (2022) is: “The Lion’s Cub”.
That means the baby of a Lion!
Now, what determines the behaviour of an animal is the Seed of the Father that is in the animal.
For Example:
I. No matter how hungry a cat may be; it will not eat Grass.
Why? Because there is something inside a cat that says: They don’t eat grass in your Generation.
II. It will take a Miracle for a cow to eat meat.
Why Not? Because in the Generation of cows, they don’t eat meat. There is something within the cow that says: No Meat. It is not your food.
So, a cow will die of hunger rather than eat meat; a cat will die of hunger rather than eat grass.
In 1 John 3:9; the Bible says that he who is born of God does not commit sin. It says that it can’t because of the Seed of God in him. And God is Holy.
Isaiah 6: 1-3 – The Angels are always crying: Holy, Holy, God Almighty.
A “Baby Lion” is a Lion – No matter how small it may be.
The Elders has a Proverb – An Elephant will not give birth to a dwarf. The child of an Elephant will always be an Elephant.
From the day a “Baby Elephant” is born, it is already bigger than any Goat – From Day 1.
So, if you are truly born of God, the Seed of God is in you!
That is one way of checking your Salvation.
There are things that you cannot do because God can’t do it – That is very important. Please, take Note of that!
Now, let us take a look at certain things that are definitely to be expected of a Lion’s Cub because, you are a Lions Cub if you are Born Again.
Because you are the son of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah and the child of a Lion must be a Lion.
1. A Lion’s Cub is born Great.
From the day you become Born Again, your Greatness is established.
The Bible says so in 1 John 4:4 – Great is He that is in you than he who is in the world.
No matter how small you are; because the Seed in you determines who you are; you are Greater than anyone else in the world who is not Born Again. Because the Seed that is in you is the Seed of the One who is called The Most High or The Almighty – Psalms 91:1.
2. From the day you are Born Again, you have been born to Reign.
Ephesians 1:20 and Ephesians 2:6 says – Your Father is seated in the Heavenly Places and you are sitting there with Him.
Physically, now you may be seated in the Old Auditorium but Spiritually, you are seated in the Heavens.
3. A Lion is born to Win.
A Lion does not lose any battle – When other animals see him coming, they will get out of the way as they don’t want to fight with a Lion.
And according to Romans 8:37 – You are born to be More Than a Conqueror.
You are born to win and it does not matter what the Present situation is saying; you are going to end up a Winner – Amen!
Because Your Father (The Lion) says it loud and clear – I have overcome the world.
4. A Lion’s Cub is the Most Protected animal in the world.
Any animal who wants to die, let him attack the baby of a Lion – He won’t live to tell the Story. That is the Truth – Pure and Simple!
In Deuteronomy 28: 1-7; the Bible made it abundantly clear – If you behave the way a Child of God is supposed to behave; anybody who comes against you one (1) way will flee before you seven (7) ways.
… You are born to win!
5. A Lion’s Cub is born to be Heard.
I can hear your Pastors saying that when a Lion roars, they hear some kilometers away – That’s true.
There is something in the Lion – When it opens its mouth, what comes out of it causes everything around to shake.
Which is why I’m not surprised that when we have several children of the Lion of Judah around; when they shout Hallelujah, People will hear.
The Bible says in Amos 3:8 – It says that the Lion has roared, who will not fear?
I have said it before – When some People wants to begin a Program, they spend Quality Time binding and losing demons et cetera et cetera. But when I want to start my own Program, all I do is to ask you to shout Hallelujah!
When we shout Hallelujah, we are informing all enemies of God that we are here, that they should get ready to go if they don’t want to Perish.
One of the things that the Word of God say that we should constantly do is that we should shout unto the Lord with a Voice of Triumph.
The son of a Lion must be a Noisemaker – Heaven is a Noisy Place!
God Himself said clearly that even if you don’t know how to sing; know how to make a Joyful Noise to Him.
But the fact that a Lion is born to roar – It is not just in Praising God; it is also in Preaching the Gospel.
We are supposed to go to the whole world, make so much Noise that the People will Pay attention to what we are saying!
I was telling my children in the United Kingdom (UK) in this Past Month (During Daddy GO’s Ministrations to mark The Festival of Life 2022 – You can ONLY get to read all these Sessions on DMC Website: www.discoverymediacrew.com or all DMC Social Media Handles).
I told them that I’m afraid and they said why daddy?
I said that you are becoming like “The Mainline Churches” – You are Praying like them as you hardly open your mouth when you Pray. Some of you told me that the reason you are doing like that is because you want to win the Natives.
Tell me – How many Natives have you won since you have been keeping quiet? They don’t even know that you are here.
CHECKS ON WHO AND WHAT THE MAINLINE PROTESTANT CHURCHES STAND FOR.
The Mainline Protestant Churches also called Mainstream Protestant and sometimes as Oldline Protestants are a Group of Protestant Denominations in the United States that contrast in History and Practice with Evangelical, Fundamentalist, and Charismatic Protestant Denominations. They stressed Social Justice and Personal Salvation and both Politically and Theologically.
The largest Mainline Churches in the United States, often referred to as the “Seven Sisters of American Protestantism”, are as follows:
I. American Baptist Churches.
II. Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)
III. The Episcopal Church.
IV. Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
V. Presbyterian Church (USA)
VI. United Church of Christ.
VII. United Methodist Church
Smaller Denominations also widely considered Mainline Churches include but are not limited to: The Reformed Church in America, The Mennonite Church, The Church of the Brethren and The Moravian Church in North America as well as many Groupings of the Religious Society of Friends.
Mainline Protestants are somewhat less concerned with Proselytizing than Evangelicals. Certainly Proselytizing is something they believe in – They believe in sharing their Beliefs with others, but not for the Purposes of Conversion necessarily.
Every Pentecostals must be known for Noise-Making!
On the Day of Pentecost, only one hundred and twenty (120) People Prayed and the whole City heard the noise. And it was their noise that brought the People to hear the Sermon that led to the Conversion of how many People – Three thousand (3,000).
If you don’t take anything away from this Conference – CRM LTP 2022; cry to God that He will give you the Revival of Noise-Making. You cannot keep quiet after you have been Born Again.
You can’t call yourself the Child of a Lion and can keep quiet in your Place of work, in the Churches, at home et cetera et cetera.
One of my daughters in Canada gave the Testimony – She troubled everybody in the City such that whenever she travelled, the People in the City knows that Somebody is missing.
What kind of trouble? – Jesus Christ loves you, you must give your Life to Him; He wants to save your Soul.
When she gets to the Bank, she will be talking – Hey lady, keep quiet – No, No, No; I’m not asking you not to fill your forms. I’m just telling you that while you are doing it; I also have a job to do – I have a duty to tell you about Jesus Christ.
They must label you “A Fanatics” because you won’t just keep quiet.
One of my son got into a Taxi with some People. After some time, the other People who got into the Taxi told the Driver that they wanted to stop because we want to escape from this Noisemaker.
And many People gave their lives to Jesus Christ when we were doing Bus Evangelism – Ask your Pastors. We just won’t keep quiet.
The world must know that we are Children of the Lion of Judah – And the son of the Lion of Judah is born to be “Heard”.

… At least you must hear and after you have heard; then you can take your Decision!
6. Maybe I should tell you one of the biggest Points about the Cub.
A Lion Cub is born with a “Killer Instinct”.
Every child of Lion is thought how to kill and the “Killer Instinct” is in him.
If you see two (2) Lions Playing – If you watch your Television (Animal Kingdom Channels); the Play of the two (2) Lions is such that one is trying to choke to death the other. That is how they Play.
They don’t Play by licking the back of each other – They grabbed each other throats (Killer Instincts).
So, what am I Born Again to kill?
I. Judges 14: 5-6 – I am Born Again to kill Destiny Destroyers.
We are to be gentle as a Lamb but we must know that deep within us is the Killer Instinct – If I see anybody who wants to destroy my Destiny; that Fellow must die!
II. Acts 5: 1-11 – I am Born Again with the Instinct to kill anyone who wants to Pollute my Destiny (Destiny Polluters).
The Church of God has just started; Miracles are beginning to happen and then came a Man and his wife (Ananias and Sapphira):
A. They wanted to Pollute the Church.
B. They wanted to introduce Hypocrisy into the Church.
C. They wanted to introduce Lying into the Church
Peter didn’t Pray that: Oh God, have Mercy on them, forgive them – No, No, No; he killed them. And when he killed them, what happened to the Church; the Church grew.
When you see Somebody trying to introduce False Doctrines into your Fellowship; after you have advised the Fellow and he is not willing to listen; then you call down Fire and let the Fire finished the job.
III. You are Born Again to kill Destiny Arresters – Mark 5: 2-20
The Mad Man at Gadara had the Destiny to be an Evangelist. Some demons gathered together to make sure that they arrest his Destiny.
When the Lord Jesus Christ sent out those demons; He granted their Request eagerly to enter into a Swine so that they can drown.
Every Lion’s Cub must have a “Deliverance Ministry”.
The Word of God is absolutely clear – Thou shall not suffer a Witch to live.
IV. You are Born Again to kill “Destiny Mockers – 2 Kings 2: 23-24”.
There are some People that you must not sympathise with when God visits them because He is gojng to visit those who are determined to destroy your Destiny!
So, after it became clear that the Destiny of Elisha is to carry a “Double Portion” of his Master, Elijah’s Anointing, some children began to mock him – Note that it was not all the children that were mocking him.
But you see children – They see some of them doing something and all of them will want to copy.
And the Man of God didn’t say that they were children – He dealth with those who are mocking him.
People are going to mock you when from now on you begin to live as a Child of the Lion of The Tribe of Judah:
I. When you begin to command demons to leave you.
II. When you begin to call down Fire on those who are not willing to yield to the Perfect Will of God.
III. When you begin to tell every Obstacles on your way to melt just as Fire goes before God.
They will mock you and you will handle them the way they should be handled.
Anyone trying to interfere with your Destiny must not be treated gently
Now, I will tell you a Story – Some of the Older ones Probably have heard it before:
We just arrived to this Camp, the Holy Ghost Service was beginning to hold every Month, things were just beginning to Pick Up. And then all of a sudden, a woman came and said that God has revealed to her that I’m to be her husband.
I said that I am married, I’m a Pastor but she said that God told her. And she herself wasn’t even Single and she wasn’t the Youngest woman in the world – I mean one of her children is a Manager in a Bank and she was a Senior Officer in West African Examination Council (WAEC).
Sorry ma, something is deceiving you; I am not your husband. I got a Letter from her every day and it got to a Stage that I told my Secretary not to bring her Letter anymore to me.
To cut a long Story short, I sent for the husband and family Members – Look at what this woman is saying?
Do you know what the husband said: There is no smoke without fire.
Ha, are you saying that I am the one making the move?
The matter got so bad that I have to go and get a Senior Police Officer to tell her to stay away from the Redemption Camp. She laughed.
One Night, we came back from Ebute Metta (The RCCG National Headquarters Parish). As soon as we arrived at the Camp, I told my family to go home as I want to work in the Office a little.
As soon as my People got home, this woman was waiting and said to my wife – I know that you are the one Standing in my way. I will kill you.
Finally, I went to London to do something. And in those days, there was no Mobile Phones and I didn’t tell anybody that I am coming.
As soon as I opened the door and entered the house, the Phone rang. I Picked up the Phone and she said Welcome. I have been waiting for you. I am at such and such Bus Stop and will soon be with you.
Ha, I had to tell her – You know that the Policemen here won’t take bribes. I will call the Police and by the time you arrived, they will be waiting by the door for you.
At that Stage, I had to tell the Almighty God – What do I do now? Everywhere I went, this woman knew where I will be going without my telling her.
And my Daddy said: What did I asked you to do to Mountains?
Well, so I decided to move Mountains!
Every Mountain in your Path, you have to move them today – Amen!
I didn’t know how it happened, but by the time I returned to Nigeria a couple of days later; they brought her dead body back.
A Lion must have a Killer Instinct born with it – To kill anyone that want to tamper with your Destiny!
6. The biggest Lesson you learnt from a Lion’s Cub from my own Perspective is found in Psalms 34:10.
What does it says – The Young Lion do suffer Lack (They got Hungry) – With all their Strength, with all their Abilities. But they that seek the Lord will not lack any Good Thing.
The Biggest Lesson that I can learn from a Lion as far as I’m concerned is that: I must never stop seeking God!
If I don’t seek God, I will lack and suffer Hunger!
It is a an Individual Decision – You must constantly seek God. Seek Him and you won’t Lack any Good Thing.
I said that a Lion is born to win – So was Samson even before he came out of his mother’s womb. God has already Prophesised that he was going to Judge the People of God, he was going to deliver the People of God from their enemies. He was born to kill.
But when God left him, the one who was born to win ended up a lower.
You must learn to seek God – God is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him!
Oh, when we gathered together like this and we are in a Crowd; it is very easy to shout when others are shouting, to Pray when others are Praying et cetera et cetera.
What do you do when you are alone making all the difference?
In 1976 I think, a Group of us went to Kenya to attend a World’s Conference of Pentecostals. A lot of People from Nigeria went.
In those days, we have what we called “Pocket Bible” – About the size of a Smart Phone. You can put it in your Pocket.
I will wake up early in the morning, went to the toilet to ease myself.
In those days, when you go to the toilet as a True Child of God, you don’t just go to ease yourself – You Study the Bible. That was why the Pocket Bible was so useful.
I opened my Pocket Bible and I did some Studies and it was Somebody flushing the toilet on the other side that brought me back to realised that: Hey, you are in the toilet.
So quickly, I tidied up and I came out. And who do I see with his Pocket Bible in his hand – Bro W.F Kumuyi (Deeper Life Church).
He too had sneaked into the toilet because we were so many that were put in a Classroom/Dormitory in a Boarding House. And so, there are all manners of Noise – People came from the East, West etc and they are cracking jokes.
And I sneaked out to the toilet with my Pocket Bible and Bro Kumuyi sneaked out too.
I looked at him – I saw the Bible in his hand; he looked at me too – He saw the Bible in my hand and we both laughed.
The Lion teaches you – You may be Young, you may be Strong, you may be born to reign, you may be born to be heard but if you don’t seek the Lord; you will still Lack something Good!
So tonight, I want you to Pray!
Like I said – There is something inside a Lion that will not cause a Lion to eat Excreta. It is called the Seed of the Lion!
ALTAR CALL
If you are truly Born Again, there is a Seed of God in you that will not cause you to sin.
So, if you are still sinning in Secret and you want to join those of us who are True Children of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah; I beg you tonight, throw away any form of Shyness or Timidity and come forward straightaway to come and give your Life to Jesus Christ.
It doesn’t matter what Title they are calling you; you need the Seed of God in you so that you can reap this Christian Life.
If you are saying that you are Born Again and you are still committing sin in Secret; come.
Maybe you are truly Born Again and you backslide – Come to be able to qualify as a Seed of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, then your Salvation must be Genuine.
Come and Settle that straightaway.
Let’s put Pretense aside and settle the issue of Salvation Genuinely.
Those of you that are infront and those on the way; cry to God and tell Him: Lord, I want to be a Child of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, I am tired of Pretending; Father save my Soul, Put Your Seed within me so that whatever You cannot do, I won’t do anymore.
Cry to God now!
And the rest of us, Stretch your hands to your Brothers and Sisters and intercede for them – That God Himself will have Mercy on them and that the Seed of the Most High God will be deposited in them today.
Thank You Lord. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
PRAYER FOR SALVATION AND CLOSING PRAYER
My Father and my God, I want to give You all the Glory and Honour for Your Words this Evening.
I want to Thank You for these Your Children who have come forward to surrendered their lives to You.
Please remember Your Promise that whosoever will come unto You, You will no wise cast out.
Kindly receive them, save their Souls, let Your Blood wash them Clean, let them become True Children of the Living God, let the Seed of the Holy One of Israel begin to dwell in them.
Lord God Almighty, everything that belongs to True Children of God, make it available for them.
Thank You my Father and my God. In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!
Now, I rejoice with you – Don’t go anywhere. Stay where you are; the Counsellors will attend to you later on. Now, I want you to be Part of the Prayers.
The rest of us – Are we ready to Pray?
You are going to Cry to the Almighty God as if you are the Only one here.
And said: Father, I will seek you and from this moment onwards; anyone who tries to tamper with my Destiny, let them be removed.
Open your mouth and cry to the Lord!!!
