It was all through praise and worship at the Marvelous Gospel Power International Church (aka Marvelous Family) in Jos, the Plateau State capital, when worshipers converged last Sunday for their 2024 Thanksgiving Service.
This special service saw other prominent men and women of God trooping from different Ministries to, together celebrate and give thanks to God for seeing the Church and members through the this year.
While in an interview shortly after the Thanksgiving Service, the Leading Pastor, Fidelis Omeji, said it was to thank God for protecting them from January to December.
“We are here to celebrate the goodness of the Lord because he has delivered us from several attacks of the enemy. So, we are all here to celebrate what God has done for us.
“I want to use this opportunity also thank great men and women who God who came to celebrate with us. I feel so encouraged, I feel so challenged and I feel so loved that they are here to represent the glory of God.
“I am happy with them around and I feel so good at this moment especially, because the month is a month of celebration for Jesus will be born on the 25th of December. So, the month is a special month”, he appreciated.
Tsoda, described the month of December as the month of God’s visitation upon humanity and taking upon the enslavement of sin and evil bringing all to the sonship of God.
He, therefore, encouraged christians to be steadfast with God even in the face of hardship and challenging times as they also continue to encourage and help one another with the way the country was shaking.
“As a matter of fact, as God to man, the country is shaking, everybody is dying in poverty, in hardship and the only way out is to get hold of God and draw close to God no matter what. With him all things are possible”.
The Pastor, advised Nigerian leaders to be honest and be truthful in carrying out their responsibilities and called on Nigerians to encourage each other and to stand firm no matter the challenges.
Earlier, while delivering sermon at the Thanksgiving Service, Rev. Israel Afor, commended Pastor Fidelis Omeji, for his dedication and commitment to the work of God and prayed God to uplift him to greatness.
“He encouraged Christians to be firm saying, “you will see the power in the word of God. If you believe it, it will be on you. Say, I have told you, I have read to somebody, I have told you something that I want you to ask me right now.
There were special song and music ministrations by the youth band of the Church as they dance praising and worshipping God for abundance grace from January to December.
