Pastor and General Overseer of the Lords Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministry, Pastor Lazarus Muoka has disclosed that his church now has over 350 branches in Lagos and over 100 branches in each state of the federation.
He said the realization of the 10 billion soul mandate of the church has become unstoppable.
Pastor Muoka was speaking at the double programme of the church which comprised the 19th Anniversary celebration of the church and the yearly crusade titled ‘Only God Can Do This’ which were held at the international headquarters of the church at Ijesha in Lagos between December 25 and December 26, 2021.
The Pastor in his anniversary message said “The Lords Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministry now has over 350 branches in Lagos alone. In each state there are more than 100 branches. In African continent, in every country you find The Lords Chosen, the same thing in Eastern and Western Europe. In Asia we are there: China Cambodia, Philippine, Taiwan, Hong Kong, In North and South America, in Middle East, The Lords Chosen is there.”
Pastor Muoka said the lord is building the Church and the gate of hell will not prevail against it. “The lord is building the Church and the gate of hell will not prevail against it.” He added “What has happened in this ministry, it is only God that can do it.”
He stated that the church has harvested testimonies as ritualists, cultists, armed robbers were converted in the church; Beer sellers, prostitutes, lesbians have also surrendered to God in the ministry. “Here God has given children, wives, husbands to many believers, the barren conceived, AIDS, Corona Virus subdued in the ministry.”
He said in The Chosen what God cannot do does not exist. “Those that call on our cable, they are prayed for and they are healed. There is something in Africa that this causing Corona Virus not to have power, and that it is God. Robbers have no power over God’s people.”
He averred that God raised the Chosen to bring dominion to mankind “God raised The Chosen to bring dominion to humanity. If not God the enemy would have swallowed us up, it is the finger of God, this God is alive,” he said.
Pastor Muoka urged members to learn to show gratitude for the blessings and favour of God these 19 years of their existence “We have to appreciate this God, we have to appreciate Him more and more, He is dependable God; whatever we say here will hold. As we are here there is hope for humanity, the future belongs to The Lords Chosen, this is a place of succor, refuge, it is the finger of God,” Pastor Muoka said.
He advised the congregants to remain focused and called on members to be vigilant, confident and trust in God, and continue in the Lords Chosen, as the goal is to make heaven at last.”
