In this powerful episode, we're reminded that prayer is not about performance—it's about access. Through Jesus, the barrier between God and humanity was torn down. He didn't just point the way; He became the way (John 14:6), restoring the access we lost and giving us a new identity as sons and daughters.Here's what you'll learn:

In this stirring episode, we explore how prayer is not just a tool for requests—but a weapon for spiritual stability. Drawing from Luke 22:31 and 1 Timothy 6:12, we're reminded that everything happening in the physical has a spiritual root, and prayer is how we anchor ourselves when life tries to shake our faith.Here's what you'll take away:

In this episode, we unpack the mystery of how faith speaks personally. Using reference texts like John 12:28–29, Acts 26:14, and Acts 2:8, we explore how God communicates in unique, tailored ways to each believer—and how you can activate your personal language of faith.Key insights include:

In this episode, we dive into a powerful truth: nothing defines spiritual maturity like love. Based on our core text—1 Corinthians 13:13—we explore why love is greater than both faith and hope, and how a true revelation of God's love transforms everything.You'll learn:Why you can't be strong in faith if you're not strong in love (Romans 8:35)How God's love isn't based on performance (1 John 4:10)What it means to love God beyond outcomes (John 3:16)The call to love like Christ—even when it hurts (Luke 10:31, 1 John 4:8,17)How faith is measured not just by what you gain, but by what you're willing to give upGod's love is your foundation, your fuel, and your anchor. Tune in and let this episode draw you deeper into the kind of love that never fails.

In “The Economy of Faith IV: Utterance,” we explore one of the most powerful and underrated tools in a believer's faith arsenal—words.

In this powerful episode titled “The Economy of Faith: The Supernatural Creativity,” we dive deep into how faith is not just a tool for survival but a divine economy that fuels creativity and restoration. Drawing from 2 Peter 2:4-5, Apostle lays the foundation for understanding how God has always empowered His people with supernatural creativity, especially in moments of chaos and corruption.You'll learn how:

To truly understand faith, we need to study the people whose faith Jesus personally commended—and surprisingly, none of them were Jews. In this episode, we dive into the stories of the Roman centurion, the Canaanite woman, and the ten lepers, uncovering what made their faith stand out. Apostle shares a powerful insight: overfamiliarity with faith teachings can dull our expectations from God. So, how do we break free from unbelief? By reflecting on past divine encounters and curating biblical stories of those who triumphed through faith. Let these lessons reignite your expectation and trust in God.

Faith isn't meant to intimidate—it's meant to inspire. In this episode, we explore how the teachings of Jesus and the examples of faith in Scripture are meant to ignite courage, not fear. Anchored in Romans 15:4, we unpack how properly delivered faith teachings stir us to believe, act, and become. Discover why faith emphasizes being over just doing, and how your identity in Christ empowers you to live a life of supernatural possibility. Plus, learn why testimonies of faith are more than stories—they're blueprints for your own breakthrough.

This episode isn't just a sermon—it's a bold declaration of victory over fear, death, and sin! We explore powerful truths from Hebrews 2 and John 6–7, revealing how Christ's death and resurrection free us from bondage and give us eternal life. Learn how faith reprograms your mindset, why you no longer need to fear death, and how the sacrifice of Jesus secures your purpose and future. Plus, a thought-provoking look at the resurrection story: if Jesus' body was stolen, why wasn't there an investigation? Dive in and be reminded—you're not a slave to fear; you're victorious in Christ!

In the Old Testament, access to God followed a strict protocol.Israel was the first nation God called His own. Despite their imperfections, God still gave them His law and chose them as His people. But even within Israel, not everyone had access; God chose people by grace.But now, through Christ, the veil has been torn. The old protocols are no longer barriers. We have direct access to God, not by lineage, but by faith.He is God to everyone, but Father to us.

- The story of Jacob was one with a legacy of faith as he blessed Joseph's sons. He didn't speak of wealth or success, but rather spoke of God — the One who shepherded him all his life. (Genesis 48:15-16)- The word Angel is a blanket term, and in some places, the “Angel of the Lord” is God Himself. (Genesis 31:11-13, Genesis 22:11-18, Joshua 5:14)- Jude 1:5 ESV says it was Jesus who saved the people out of Egypt. This is a progression in revelation, from the “Angel of the Lord” to the Lord Himself.oreshadowed from the beginning. (Genesis 6:14, Leviticus 16:30, Exodus 12)- Your morality will never be enough to save you. Only the blood qualifies you.

Satan has no legal right over God's people.However, it is our job to continually trample on him as a believer. Apostle Iren said before we can trample on Satan, we must first see him, Satan, as fallen.He further emphasized that just because we are born again, does not mean we are free from the devil and his strategies. We must actively exercise our authority against him and his cohorts (1 Peter 5:8, Luke 10:19).Two types of authority

Know Your Enemy (KYE)He emphasized that in spiritual warfare, understanding the enemy's limitations and tendencies is important (2 Corinthians 2:11).Apostle Iren reminded us that we already know who the devil is—a liar, a murderer, and a thief (John 8:44, Revelation 12:9, 1 Samuel 17:34-35).Using the story of David and Goliath, he illustrated a key principle: spiritual warfare is won by spiritual tactics.The reason King Saul allowed a boy (David) to face a giant (Goliath) was because of his resume and not by faith (1 Samuel 16:18; Judges 20:15-16).David vs. Goliath was a fair fight because David knew his enemy. Goliath was big but slow, and David used his sling strategically to win from a distance.What We Should Know About Satan and His Angels:

In the morning session, Day 2 of CAMPUS INVASION, Pastor Emmanuel Iren taught on "Things to know when preparing for the future."Apostle opened the sermon teaching by saying there must be a balance of wisdom and power in preparing for the future. He used his life as a critical example of a strong manifestation of the wisdom of God.He further stated that there are things we must learn and do early in preparing for the future.The first point discussed was to MAKE RELATIONSHIP CHOICES BRILLIANTLY.Apostle made us understand that there are things that are accrued to us not by intelligence but by relationships. He added that if one is poor with relationships, one will hinder the move of God in one's life. The spirit and power to discern has been given to men, and thus, we must build the right and healthy relationship. An example examined was Abraham, who was hospitable to the angels of his blessings. Luke 24:28Apostle further admonished us to be of good behaviour and be hospitable. He emphasized that there are many encounters one would miss if one is not hospitable.He added that some angelic encounters are provoked by hospitality, not only by praying and fasting. He said that the world thrives on relationships and thus, we should not treat people less and we should not be arrogant.In addition, Apostle spoke on three levels of relationship that we must be conscious about

Don't waste your life.He started the sermon by laying emphasis on three key points based on purpose and the pursuit of purpose to fulfilling destiny

In the school of the Spirit, there's a way to respond. You can be a master in the subject of peace. You can become more fluent in the language of faith.Colossians 3:15 tells us to let the peace of God rule in our hearts and this means two things:1. Peace is not an event. It's not out of your control.2. Peace is up to you. You can give it permission. You can decide that you're going to allow peace reign. A perfect example is Jesus Christ on the cross. Luke 23:28✨ There's a level of training required in mastering peace. If the Bible tells you “let peace reign” (Colossians 3:15), it's because it's possible.MISTAKES MANY CHURCHES MAKE IN THE NAME OF DEMONSTRATION OF FAITH1. We deny facts in the name of faith. Be like Jesus in Matthew 26:382. We're not trained to expect challengesWe do not know what tomorrow holds. Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.” (James 4:14-15)Like Jesus, you must have the humility in prayer where you say “nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.” Matthew 26:39THREE THINGS YOU'LL PROBABLY EXPERIENCE AT SOME POINT IN YOUR LIFE:1. Being financially brokeThe revelation of the Rehoboth is not complete until you know how to move on from losses. Genesis 26:22; 1 Timothy 6:17.2. SicknessYou will need your strength to stand and fight. Philippians 2:25-28. When you hear bad news, rehearse your response.3. HeartbreakThis is beyond romantic heartbreaks. At some point in your life, people will disappoint you. Learn to handle it.HERE'S HOW TO MASTER PEACE

Honoring God Through Action and Hospitality

How not to backslide:

There are two miraculous encounters we should expect in every meeting:

The Joy of the Lord.He emphasized the importance of protecting our joy, and while we may face situations that trigger anger or sadness beyond our control, we can always control our response.People may hurt us, but we must take ownership of our reactions and safeguard our joy. (Nehemiah 6:3)6 Things to Know About Biblical Joy;

Three things to draw from Genesis about marriage:1. To have a happy home, you must be ready to die to self. A good home must be borne out of a dead man. Genesis 2:21. You cannot truly love another selflessly and rightly according to God's standards until you die to self. You must practice forgiveness and forgive even those who do not deserve forgiveness. Ephesians 4:32. You must learn to lose a battle to win a war: pick your battles. It is part of oneness that you let go of your privileges.2. Purpose: God gave Adam a job before he gave him a spouse which points to the fact that one of the ways to have a happy home is to get an office. Genesis 2:15. God did not design us to be idle, if you are, you are straining from God's natural order because Idleness is dangerous. Build support systems for each other apart from each other. Find wise older women to befriend and find wise older men for your husband to befriend.3. Man is the head of the home: psychologically, when a woman is with the right man, she'll let him lead. Ephesians 5:22, Colossians 3:18-22. Don't marry a man whose leadership you do not trust.4. There is a level of sacrifice and empathy required to make marriage work.When you notice that you're falling out of love, you need to learn that love is a command. Acting like a man “in love” he became in love. Look at your woman and “call her” what you want her to be. Call your partner what God has called them. Change your perspective. Be a doer and not just a hearer.

PHILOPHOBIA - the fear of falling in love. This is the fear of vulnerability or emotional dependence. It makes you want to avoid relationships or end relationships abruptly due to fear that things are beginning to get deep.Key points to note:

Preserving The Culture Of Charismatic GiftsApostle Emmanuel IrenPsalm 131:1-3There is a protocol for the supernatural. The assembly of the brethren remains God's idea. There is a positive provocation in the right direction.How To Preserve Charismatic Gifts:1. Get your environment right.Fellowship with the right people. When you gather with the saints, there would be a flow of grace. 1 Samuel 10:11 It is God's design for us to dwell together in unity and belong to a local assembly. There are dimensions of the manifestation of God that will only happen in our assembly. Assimilate yourself in an assembly that takes God seriously. There is power in corporate anointing.2. The Holy Ghost in you is enough!The same spirit in you administers in different ways as the occasion demands 1 Corinthians 12:1-5 We must do away with the scarcity mindset. The Holy Ghost can do everything in your life. You grow in the things of the spirit by putting it to use. Take a step!

Preserving The Culture Of Sanctification1 Thessalonians 4:3 Deuteronomy 1:39 Genesis 3:1God's view remains Ultimate. We have to be careful of voices that try to change our opinion of what the truth of God's word clearly says. Guard your heart against contrary voices.Angels are imagers of God in the spirit realm, Men are imagers of God in the natural realm. Psalm 8:5 Job 38:7 Psalm 82:7The temptation of Adam and Eve by the serpent was an invitation to an ungodly and almost irrecoverable exposure. Genesis 3:22Satan's trick is ungodly exposure and he does it through popular culture. God's desire is to protect man's innocence from ungodly exposure.True freedom is within the confines of God's purpose for your life. Any society that casts off virtuous restraint will be in trouble.Here are ways the devil brings about ungodly exposure:1. Popular Culture2. Media3. Philosophical Relativism4. Rebellion against Traditional morality5. Legal and Policy changesAs believers, we are to discern and ensure we guard our hearts against ungodly exposure. I Thessalonians 4:3-5 Jude 1:24

reserving the Culture of PrayerApostle Emmanuel IrenIf you truly know that there is a devil who hates you, it will change your demeanor. If you don't pray, the devil will get away with a lot in your life. I Peter 5:8-9We must preserve the culture of prayer. If it is nonexistent, it must be because a generation or two let it wither away. Allow the Word of God superimpose on culture, not the other way around. Do prayer the Bible way.If you don't pray, you will faint and not have the capacity to receive all that God has for you.Learn to press in spite of difficulty.To build a prayer life, you must learn to pray because it is necessary, even when you don't feel like it. Luke 18:1– Jesus taught perseverance in prayer because you will faint if you don't learn it.James 5:17– the men God uses don't necessarily have an unusual grace, but they learn to push beyond excuses, and so can you.Throw yourself into the culture of prayer.

Signs that you do not understand salvation as much as you think you do.1. You assess your standing before God based on how good you have been before you pray. Galatians 3:1-32. You think that there are people God loves more than he loves you. Matthew 7:113. You think that only the obviously morally deficient people need salvation.In salvation, we see the utter helplessness of man and the sovereign intervention of God. Ephesians 2:1-4
