Sunday Divine Service began with opening hymn SS&S 210 "Glory ever be to Jesus." Thereafter the congregation was blessed by the ministration from Elshaddai choir "Wonderful love" and Mamas choir ( Sunshine women).

Thereafter Apostle Francis Orelu taught on the topic titled "Need for the strong to support the weak " taking his texts from the Bible books of Romans 15:1-3 and Luke 22:31-33.

As Christians, it is advisable not to mock those who have fallen else we fall also. Brethrens can be strengthened through prayers and advice. It is not only through fasting and prayers we strengthen brethrens as sometimes what is needed could be material things like giving food to those who don't have, providing jobs/job opportunities to brethren as written in the Bible book of Job4:3.

Apostle Orelu emphasized the need for charity to be supreme in all of our dealings as believers (1Corin. 13:1), calling on brethrens to always check on one another as this could be a source of strength to the weak.

Sunday Divine Service began with opening hymn SS&S 22 (Holy Holy Holy, Lord God Almighty) thereafter Elshaddai choir blessed the church with their piece "Urhuese"

Apostle Orelu Francis taught on the topic titled "Don't forget your root." With text from John14:1-2.

When a man is disconnected from his root, he is disconnected from the grace and anointing that is attached to that root. The root can be the altar where a man was dedicated or the place a man encountered God. Lot in the Bible book of Genesis disconnected from Abraham, over time he lost everything save his two daughters.

Apostle Orelu emphasized that the reason people do not stay long in prosperity is because they forget their history and as such lose humanity. The humanity needed to sustain grace is connected to one history (root). When a man forget those who were of help to him in the past, help will be denied him in time.

Prophetic declaration were made for the congregants as the week was declared blessed by God's servant, Apostle Francis Orelu.

Closing hymn was taken from SS&S 543.

Remain blessed and looking forward to seeing you next week for another encounter with God.

As Christians, it is advisable to discern voices whether it be of God and that putting to practice the word of God we hear, there lies our blessings as Abraham in the book of Genesis heard and knew the voice of God to take his son for sacrifice which he obeyed and received the blessings that follows.
