7 Days Of Feast Of Testimonies


FROM:                     PRESIDENT, LFCW
TO:                          ALL MISSION STATIONS
SUBJECT:                DECLARING 7 DAYS OF FEAST OF TESTIMONIES
DATE:                      January 28, 2012
Glory greetings in the name of Jesus Christ and congratulations on the impactful completion of the 21 days of prayer and fasting as we conclude today. GLORY!!!  

It is established from scriptures that testimonies are largely provoked by intensive thanksgiving. Jesus validated this truth in scriptures.
First, the miracle of baskets of bread and fishes was provoked by thanksgiving where from the two loaves and five fishes, five thousand men minus women and children were fed to the full with twelve baskets of fragment left over (Jn 6:6-11)

Another striking testimony was the raising of Lazarus from the dead. Jesus gave thanks and Lazarus came forth (Jn 11:40-44)
Remember, according to scriptures, death is the last enemy that shall be destroyed (1Cor 15:26). Therefore, if thanksgiving could disarm death and release Lazarus, then thanksgiving must be the spiritual weapon for ultimate testimonies.
Having believed, prayed and fasted, these 21 days, it is spiritual wisdom to engage the weapon of ultimate testimonies which is THANKSGIVING.
This is why the Holy Ghost has instructed that we embark on 7 DAYS OF FEAST OF TESTIMONIES from Monday 30th January to Sunday 5th February 2012.
Furthermore, thanksgiving is defined in scriptures as the fruit of our lips (Heb 13:15) and the fruit of our lips is what determines the result we experience.
It is also written;
 “A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him”. - Pro 12:14

Therefore, as we engage in faith-filled thanksgiving which is also a spiritual sickle for the harvest to answers to our prayers; I see God delivering to us strange order of testimonies from our spiritual investment of the 21 days of prayer and fasting. (Joel 3:13/ Phil 4:6)
Individuals and families are therefore admonished to engage in extensive thanksgiving in the 7 days ahead of us. We have had amazing testimonies though the engagement of weapon of thanksgiving from several individuals across our church network worldwide.
This is why everybody is encouraged to engage both day and night of intense thanksgiving sessions. Remember also that he that giveth thanks in the Spirit giveth it well 1Cor 14:17
As the Lord lives, every Winner shall be riding the Waves of Glory with humbling testimonies that shall be far above all the testimonies we have had in the last 21 days of prayer and fasting.
Jesus is Lord!
