It was gathering of the best in Christian religious hierarchy when on December 16, 2018 Genesis Global Church, Alakuko, Lagos held her Annual Thanksgiving Service titled ‘Harvest of Massive Mercy.  Prophet Israel Oladele Ogundipe took time to x-ray the political firmament of the nation and passed a verdict that 2019 General Election will be generally peaceful. SUCCESS DAMIAN reports.

The service which commenced on a spiritually charged note had Reverend Mother Esther Abimbola Ayayi, Founder, Love of Christ Generation Church, mounting the altar and dishing undiluted word of God.

In an interaction with the media, Prophet Israel Oladele Ogundipe speaking on the theme of the year’s thanksgiving Harvest of Massive Mercy, said without massive mercy in one’s life one’s message cannot be appreciated and celebrated. “If you don’t have mercy in your life you end up in mess. Nobody is perfect in life, but the bible says I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. When God has mercy on you, he would make you his choice.

“Not all those that are married are married. But those who receive mercy are enjoying their marriages, when you are married and you receive mercy, you enjoy your marriage. When you have children and you have mercy you will enjoy your children, when you do anything and you have mercy you will enjoy it. Mercy is the heavenly perfume that can quench earthly odour. Where I am today, I am enjoying the glory of God and the mercy of God. I did not go to school; I did not go to the University, no polytechnic, but I went to university of adversity, faculty of problem, department of trouble.

“However, I read a lot and I study a lot also, so it is not about school, it is about the transformational mentality about your life, you don’t want to stay where your father stayed, or end where your father ended. And to the glory of God I have been to America, Europe, and have preached there to the glory of God, in some Pentecostal churches and white Garment Churches. I just want the whole world to know that Nigeria just needs the mercy of God. The people needs the mercy of God, the politicians need the mercy of God,” Ogundipe stated.

Commenting of the coming 2019, Ogundipe stated that God is going to be involved, “I have seen so many predictions, 2019 is going to be perfect, I know table is gonna turn because some people that are cabals in Nigeria, they know how they are going to do it. All I pray for is whoever gets there as head should favour us.”

Speaking on the condition in the land Ogundpe said “Even when Shagari was there some people enjoyed, When Muritala was there some people enjoyed, the same with the time of Goodluck Jonathan, some people enjoyed and some suffered. And now that Buhari came in, some people are suffering and some are enjoying. But as long as you’re a carrier of God’s mercy, whoever that comes in, God knows how to set you in,” the young but energetic prophet stated.

Ogundipe also advised politicians saying “My advice to people is, don’t sell your right, don’t sell your conscience, don’t sell your vote and don’t sell the future of your children. Don’t be used as political thugs.

“The politicians should be honest, it should not be a do or die thing, if God says you are going to be there, you will be there, if he says you are not going to be there, you are not going to be there,” he stated.

He also disclosed that Nigeria should have no fear about separation saying “There will be no trouble, we are not going to separate, God is going to step in and there will be peace.”

Ogundipe said God is taking Nigeria through a transformational period, “It may be rough but it is going to be better. God is raising up takeover generation from handing over generation, some people will hand over whether they like it or not, they will grow old, and later they would die.

Ogundipe who advised people against polygamy and domestic violence, saying couples may disagree but should not resort to physical combat. "Anybody that beats his wife is like an unrepentant animal. If a woman come to you she supposed to be a blessing to you. The woman needs to be cultivated, she needs to be motivated, elevated and celebrated. She has gone a lot with her parents, she should not come to your house and begin to suffer,"

He spoke glowingly about the 11 years old church saying, “The church is going places. I went through a lot in life, but if God want to prepare you, he will use people to prepare you, he will use trouble, because until you have challenges you would not know who are surrounding you. God has been the God of again and again and again. He is moving us from one glory to another, it is not about church growth; it is about how many life I am going to affect. I really want God to use me to affect many people.

“Most times there are people in your life to make you, there are some in your life to destroy you, some to bless you and some to debar you from going to the next level.”

He spoke glowingly about the white garment church saying “It is not about church, it is about heaven. It is going to be the biggest and highest abomination to believe that your denomination will determine your transformation; it is not about the church you go, it is about the God you know.

“This is the only Celestial Church that believes so much in transition, no going to river to wash your head, it is about the word of God. I have been able to write seven books, the eighth one is about to come out,” Ogundipe stated.

On the youth population in his church he said, “Any church that does not celebrate the youth has no future, the same thing with a country that does not celebrate her youth. What our leaders need to do is to bring in the youth, bring in their ideas, bring them in and listen to them.”

Prophet Ogundipe who empowered many with hundreds of thousands of Naira during the service said he appreciates people more than money.

“My is to flash back and when I see what I have gone through before, I have gone through a lot in my life, on 24^th of this year, we are sharing about 2000 bags of rice, I don’t care if you are Moslem or Christian. I am enjoying the grace of God and I want to extend it to people because I do not deserve it.”

He said people are not where they supposed to be because they allow others to interrupt their destination and therefore challenged many to perceiver even the situation is rough.
