In a fertile year, cross to own – Pastor Osu ICGC charges the congregation

Ecstatic worshipers at the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC) temple of restoration, Osu, called off the year of the pandemic and ushered in 2021 amid thunderous cries of praise and worship to the Lord for his kindness.

And when Chief Pastor Reverend Ashford Smith declared 2021 the Year of Fertility by calling on the faithful to cross paths and possess, it was clear that a new dawn had just begun, in which every member hopes to be “fruitful.” and multiply. “

With his base text from Deuteronomy 11:31, Reverend Smith instructed the congregation to look forward to a change in the New Year and to own what God has given them.

“When the Israelites crossed the Red Sea, they went from slavery to freedom,” he said, adding, on the New Year, “you will not marry and give birth; you will not start a business to collapse.

He said the pandemic, the deaths of loved ones, the jobs lost and the challenges of 2020 must be remembered, saying, “You are going to cross paths to own; God will grant you the power of possession; what you lost in 2020, you will occupy in 2021. “

It was a 2 hour, 31 night service filled with praise, worship, prayers, anointing and testimonies, all in strict compliance with the Covid 19 protocols.

Sitting in white clothes with multicolored nose masks, in a physically distant seat, the faithful were not unaware of the dangers of the time but they were all the more convinced that with the protocols observed, God would move in such a way. supernatural through his Word.

During a year that was difficult for many, being there on the 31st evening and saying thank you to God was the greatest show of gratitude on the part of many Christians.

Beyond their presence, some shared incredible testimonies of how God had saved their lives and those of their loved ones from the surgeries; while others were grateful to God for passing their exams with flying colors and giving them access to their favorite school choices.

For these great testimonies and more, Reverend Ashford Smith pleaded with the congregation to be thankful to the Lord and to look forward to the new possessions He will bestow upon them in the coming year.

At 15 minutes into the New Year, worshipers were led to a powerful prayer session, with worshipers asking God to lead the way in 2021.

The 12 midnight hour that marked a transition to 2021 was ushered in with loud cries of praise muffled by nasal masks.
