Heaven's Greatest Gift, Humanity's Greatest Decision Study Text: Hebrews 2:3  Introduction: Life is full of important decisions—our education, career, marriage, business, and relationships.  However, the greatest decision anyone will ever make is what they do with Jesus Christ and the salvation He offers.  Every other decision affects this life, but the decision to accept or reject God's salvation affects eternity. The writer of Hebrews asks a profound question: "How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation?" The question is rhetorical because there is no escape apart from Christ.  God has given humanity His greatest gift—salvation through Jesus Christ. The responsibility now rests on every individual to respond by faith. This passage presents three compelling truths about God's wonderful gift of salvation. 1.  The Preciousness of Heavens Gift  2.  The Peril of Humanity's Neglect  3.  The Profit of Humble Decision   1. The ...

WELCOME TO AUGUST 2026: OUR MONTH OF DIVINE CONNECTION By Bishop Prof. Julius O. Soyinka Ultimate Power Gospel Assembly (Covenant of Power Evangelical Ministries International) Ibadan, Nigeria PROPHETIC WORD FOR THE MONTH Beloved, welcome to the glorious month of August, our Month of Divine Connection with Destiny Helpers. We bless God for His faithfulness throughout the year. As we journey further into the second half of the year, the Lord is set to bring strategic people into your life—men and women whom He has ordained to support, encourage, recommend, promote, and position you for the fulfilment of your divine destiny. No one fulfils destiny alone. God has always used people as channels of His blessings. Moses had Aaron and Hur. Ruth had Boaz. David had Jonathan. Esther had Mordecai. Paul had Barnabas.  Likewise, God has prepared destiny helpers who will connect with you at the right time and for the right purpose. Isaiah 45:2–3 "I will go before thee, and make the crooked pla...

WEEKLY PASTORAL PRAYER, WORD & PROPHETIC DECLARATION July 26th – August 1st, 2026 Theme: Crossing Over into New Glory Bishop Prof. Julius O. Soyinka Ultimate Power Gospel Assembly, Ibadan WORD FOR THE WEEK Isaiah 43:18–19 "Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert." This week marks another divine transition as we conclude the month of July and step into August.  Throughout Scripture, God reveals Himself as the God of new beginnings, fresh mercies, and greater glory. Whatever may have been your disappointments, delays, or disappointments in the past months, do not allow them to define your future. God is doing a new thing. He specializes in making a way where there seems to be no way, bringing hope out of hopelessness, and turning impossible situations into testimonies. As you cross into the new mont...

GOSPEL POWER OUTREACH A Weekly Evangelical Publication of Ultimate Power Gospel Assembly (UPGA) A.K.A.  Covenant of Power Evangelical Ministries International, Ibadan, Nigeria Theme: There Is Power in the Blood of Jesus Anchor Scripture: "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony..." — Revelation 12:11 In a world filled with sin, fear, sickness, oppression, and hopelessness, God has provided one eternal remedy—the precious Blood of Jesus Christ. The Blood that was shed on Calvary over two thousand years ago has never lost its power. It still saves sinners, heals the sick, delivers the oppressed, restores broken lives, and grants victory over the powers of darkness. The Blood of Jesus is God's covenant of mercy. No sinner is beyond redemption when he or she comes to Christ in genuine repentance. No bondage is too strong for the Blood to break. No guilt is too great for the Blood to cleanse. Today, Jesus Christ is calling you. If you...

Grace for Accelerated Breakthroughs Study Text: Isaiah 60:22 Introduction: Grace is God's unmerited favour that empowers believers to accomplish what human effort alone cannot achieve. It is not merely God's kindness—it is His divine ability at work in us.  When grace comes upon a life, delay gives way to speed, impossibilities become possibilities, and ordinary people experience extraordinary breakthroughs. In this season of revival, God is releasing fresh grace that will accelerate destinies, restore lost opportunities, and bring His people into divine enlargement.  1. Grace that Empowers In Philippians 2:13 Paul declared, "By the grace of God I am what I am."  Grace empowered him to labour beyond all the other apostles. Grace empowers us to: Overcome limitations. Excel beyond human expectations. Fulfill divine purpose. Finish strong despite opposition.  Where grace is at work, human weakness becomes a platform for God's power.  2. Grace that Elevates In Esthe...

From Doubt to Divine Help Study Text: Mark 9:24 Introduction: Mark 9 records the story of a desperate father whose son was tormented by an evil spirit.  After the disciples failed to bring deliverance, the father turned to Jesus. Confronted with the challenge of faith, he made one of the most honest prayers in the Bible: “Lord, I believe; help  Thou mine unbelief.” This verse teaches us that faith is not the absence of struggle but the willingness to trust God despite our weaknesses.  Jesus did not reject the father's honesty; He responded to it with compassion and power. We shall be discussing the topic under three subheadings: 1.  The Confession of Faith  2.  The Conflict of Faith  3.  The Completion of Faith   1. The Confession of Faith — “Lord, I Believe” The father acknowledged Jesus as Lord and expressed his confidence in Him. Faith begins with recognizing Christ's authority and ability. Even a small measure of genuine faith can co...
