On a Saturday like this exactly 34 years ago, the atmosphere in Imeko was bubbling at the same time sober; excited yet gloomy! Preparations were in top gear as the heavens prepared for the homecoming of a true son who totally submitted himself to the will of his Father, an ambassador who had represented his Master well on Earth. Concerning Nathaniel, Jesus said *an Israelite indeed, in whom there's no guile!*
Well, the same can be said of Papa Samuel Bilewu Joseph Oshoffa, a man called and sent by God to deliver a vessel of salvation for all mankind, so that the works of Jesus Christ on the cross of calvary would be perfected in our lives. Papa, as he is often called, was mindful of this mandate and he delivered.
The heavens acknowledged his works with testimonies that even our children would talk about as if they witnessed it.
This year's calendar is an express parody of the 1985 calendar wherein everything fits apply as it reflected then. Till date, our confidence in your impeccable words that you would be with us a thousand years still echoes at every point that you come into our situations.
The Greater Tomorrow Group and indeed the entire congregation of Celestial Church of Christ will never forget that you championed the course of Jesus Christ, just as He intended you do for the world.
On this day in a year that is exactly as the one that he was translated into glory, we remember the man whom God sent, a prophet of the 21st century, an Enigmatic leader whose quality leadership none has been able to emulate, whose shoes none has been able to step into, whose crown none has been able to wear!
The sceptre given to him is yet to be passed on to another, evident by the realities in the Church and the entire world today!
As we remember Rev. Pastor Prophet Founder SBJ Oshoffa, a man through whom God performed many wondrous works and liberated many, we earnestly await the anointed of God that would take us to the promised land, the place of our sure inheritance in Celestial Church of Christ.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ perpetually sustain us and the church as we hope for this great glory. Amen.
*A wa se iranti SBJ Oshoffa*
*A wa se iranti eniti Olorun ran*
*Oshoffa sise! O sise! Oshoffa sise ni to o to!*
