BY IFEOMA IKEM

Marathon Messiah’s Praise was born from a desire to gather men from all walks of life and different nations to celebrate God over the life of our dear Daddy G.O. and to engineer a new dispensation of praise.

 

From the inception of Marathon Messiah’s Praise in 2012 to the 9th edition in 2020, there has been an overwhelming amount of testimonies and positive reviews; an evidence that Christ alone is glorified.

Pastor Leke Adeboye (Senior Special Assistant to the General overseer RCCG)
said during a zoom conference that indeed, Marathon Messiah’s Praise has received nothing but God’s mercy and this year, she hosts her 10th edition in 30 countries, Nigeria being the host country.

 

All these springing up from acknowledging God’s faithfulness in the life of our icon, who recently celebrated 40 years as the General Overseer of the REDEEMED CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF
GOD: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE.

 

According to him,Marathon Messiah’s Praise is a globally renowned interdenominational gospel musical event of non-stop praises, worship and prayers. It is a specific number of hours where sons and daughters of God come together to appreciate God’s mercy and faithfulness to the world.

 

The number of hours are very significant as they symbolize the number of years Pastor E.A.Adeboye has spent on earth.

The first edition of Marathon Messiah’s Praise was held in 2012 when Daddy clocked 70 years.

 

This year, we are celebrating 79 years of amazing grace in his life while also marking 10 years of success, abundance and all-round progress of Marathon Messiah’s Praise.

Participating countries also leapt from 4 countries in 2014 to 30 in 2021. Marathon Messiah’s Praise has also
increased its influence from music to include prayers, evangelism and CSR.

How to Generate the Power of God / Generating the Power of God

 

Sermon Highlights

 

We live in a world ruled by different levels and types of power. However, among all powers—whether from the waters, the marine world, the marketplace world, the grave, or the elemental forces—the Power of God stands supreme and unmatched.

 

In this present generation, the power of man is not enough to survive. This is a generation of warfare, a generation where unseen forces seek dominance, and many mistakenly think they can live casually, without spiritual power.

 

The truth is:

In a world full of spiritual battles, you either become a slave or an overcomer. You are either a prey or a predator.

 

A powerless life is not a life worth living.

 

The Power of God is awesome, absolute, and incomparable. Yet, the power of God does not come overnight. It is a gradual, deliberate process.

 

If you seek quick and cheap power, you are not seeking the true power of God. Divine power must be sought, grown, nurtured, and matured until it becomes mighty within you.

 

How to Receive the Power of God

 

There are eight key ways to generate the Power of God:

 

1. Through the Name of Jesus Christ (Philippians 2:10–11)

 

The Name of Jesus carries unstoppable power. At the mention of His Name, every knee must bow—whether in heaven, on earth, or under the earth.

 

2. Through the Blood of Jesus

(Revelation 10:11)

 

The Blood of Jesus gives you power for cleansing and victory. It purges you from sin and builds a spiritual wall of fire around your life.

 

3. Through the Word of God

 

The Word of God is a two-edged sword.

When you quote the Word with authority, demons tremble and bow. Saturating yourself with Scripture makes you spiritually untouchable.

 

4. Through Fasting and Prayer

 

Fasting breaks your flesh and humbles your body, opening the gateway for divine power.

– Jesus fasted for 40 days before launching into mighty miracles.

– Daniel fasted for 21 days and received divine revelations and revival fire.

 

5. Through Evangelism (Romans 1:16, 1 Corinthians 1:18)

 

Evangelism releases God’s power. When you preach the Gospel, you unleash the power of salvation and open doors for miracles.

 

6. Through a Life of Holiness

 

Holiness invites the power of God automatically. Living a pure, righteous life makes you a carrier of divine power without necessarily asking for it.

 

7. Through the Power of Resurrection (Philippians 3:10)

 

Knowing Christ brings you into the experience of resurrection power—overcoming sin, death, and every limitation.

 

8. Through the Power of the Holy Ghost (Acts 1:8)

 

The Holy Spirit empowers you for exploits. With the Holy Ghost, what seems humanly impossible becomes supernaturally possible.

 

Declarations

Lift your voice and declare with fire:

 

Fire!

I need fire!

I receive fire!

I have fire!

 

Fire Prayers

 

Pray these prophetic prayers with holy aggression:

 

1. Fire of God, come upon me!

2. Shout “Holy Ghost Fire!” seven times.

Heaven’s Script Unfolds: Prophet Kingsley Aitafo’s 2025 Prophecy on Pope Francis Fulfilled

Heaven’s Script Unfolds: Prophet Kingsley Aitafo’s 2025 Prophecy on Pope Francis Fulfilled

 

 

The world mourns Pope Francis, while a prophetic message echoes with divine accuracy.

 

 

Vatican City | April 21, 2025 — In a moment that has shaken the global Catholic community and resonated through spiritual circles worldwide, Pope Francis passed away peacefully on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025, at the age of 88, in his Vatican residence at Casa Santa Marta.

 

At 9:45 AM, Cardinal Kevin Farrell, Camerlengo of the Apostolic Chamber, made the somber announcement from the Holy See:

 

“Dearest brothers and sisters, with deep sorrow I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis… At 7:35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the Father…”

 

But even amid the mourning, another narrative is making headlines — that of divine foresight.

 

Earlier this year, Nigerian cleric, Prophet Kingsley Aitafo, released a chilling prophecy regarding a “major exit in the Vatican,” naming Pope Francis as the focus of his revelation. Delivered in a January 2025 broadcast, the prophetic message warned of an impending transition in the Catholic Church’s highest office, citing spiritual visions of the Pontiff’s declining health and heavenly summons.

 

Heaven’s Script Unfolds: Prophet Kingsley Aitafo’s 2025 Prophecy on Pope Francis Fulfilled

 

Today, that prophecy has come to pass.

 

A Voice Crying in the Spiritual Wilderness

Prophet Kingsley Aitafo, known for his bold prophetic utterances and spiritual insights, stated in his January message:

 

“Pray for the Vatican. I see a great change coming. The one seated shall be taken, and it shall mark a new chapter for the Church.”

 

While many took the message with caution, some believers rallied in prayer. As the months unfolded, Pope Francis’ health took a notable decline. He was admitted to Agostino Gemelli Polyclinic Hospital on February 14, 2025, for complications from bronchitis. Doctors later diagnosed him with bilateral pneumonia on February 18.

 

Despite returning to Casa Santa Marta after 38 days of hospitalization to continue recovery, the Holy Father never regained full strength.

 

The End of an Era

Pope Francis, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, led the Catholic Church with humility, inclusiveness, and fervent compassion, championing the rights of the poor and marginalized. His papacy was marked by simplicity, progressive reforms, and a call to return to the Gospel’s core values.

 

As millions grieve, many within the prophetic community are pointing to Aitafo’s message as a profound sign of divine communication and the importance of spiritual sensitivity in turbulent times.

 

A Call to Spiritual Reflection

Prophet Kingsley, in a statement released hours after the Pope’s death, expressed his condolences while reaffirming the spiritual significance of the moment:

 

“This was not a wish — it was a word from the Spirit. Let the world understand: when God speaks, it is not to scare, but to prepare. Let us pray for the Church and its future.”

 

As the Vatican begins its formal mourning and preparations for the conclave, many eyes are now turned toward the heavens — and toward those anointed to see what lies ahead.,
