    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

    Once again we give all glory, honour, praise and thanksgiving to God, LORD Almighty for the successful completion of the second edition of this book. O LORD, None of this would have happened without YOU performing these miracles which YOUR children testify to. We owe the success of this book to YOU. THANK YOU LORD, GOD ALMIGHTY!

    I acknowledge my mentor and Father-in-the-LORD, the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor E.A Adeboye (Daddy G.O) whose guidance and inspiration led to the documentation of the work of God in the first and second edition of this book. Thank you Sir.

    I would also like to extend my warm thanks to our darling Mother-in-Israel, Pastor (Mrs.) Foluke Adeboye (Mummy G.O), for her unflinching love and inspiration over the years.

    My utmost appreciation goes out to my beautiful Sugar Baby, Pastor Siju, who continually sacrifices, supports and encourages me during my long hours at work and in ministry. I love you.

    To the Pastoral Team that embodies a true ‘A" Team - my Generals, Lieutenants and Sergeant Majors, indeed with your backing, City of David parish has reached major milestones. Thank you.

    To the generous brethren who have shared their testimonies to honour God and encourage others, without your contribution this book would not have been written. Thank you, may your testimonies be permanent in Jesus name.

    Finally, I thank the Project Team for their sleepless nights, challenges and struggles in compiling this book. Well done, you are the best Team ever!

    ABOUT THE CITY OF DAVID

    City of David is a Parish of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), one of the largest and fastest growing Pentecostal Churches in the world. RCCG started in 1952 with just 12 members but today has grown into a mega Church with parishes spread across five continents of the world.

    In 1992, a new Parish of RCCG was set up called Freedom Hall, under the leadership of Pastor Tony Rapu. It was a Model Parish in RCCG and it attracted young professionals and students.

    City of David, an offshoot of Freedom Hall started in October 1996 with less than a hundred workers, with Pastor Eskor Mfon as the Pastor. Between 1996 and 2002, the City of David held services at the Lagoon Restaurant, Victoria Island. The Church grew rapidly within a few years, holding two large services on Sunday mornings.

    It soon became clear that the facility at the Lagoon Restaurant had become inadequate to accommodate the growth that God was bringing. In August 1999, the leadership of the Church took a step of faith to purchase the piece of land whereon the current sanctuary is built. In 2003, in the 7th year of the Church, the first phase of the sanctuary which seats approximately 2,500 was completed and dedicated.

    In April 2007 Pastor Eskor Mfon went to be with the Lord. Pastor Ben Akabueze held fort until September 16, 2007, when the Provincial Pastor of RCCG Lagos Province 4, Pastor Idowu Iluyomade (fondly called Pastor ID), assumed the leadership of the Apapa Family and took over as Pastor of the Church, ably supported by his wife, Pastor Siju Iluyomade.

    God gave Pastor ID a vision of exceeding greatness and the Church has been growing in leaps and bounds with signs and wonders following. What eye has not seen, what ear has not heard, nor entered into the heart of man, is what God has been doing for those that love Him at C.O.D. These great things God has unveiled and revealed by and through His Holy Spirit [1 Corinthians 2:9-10].

    The Church now has two services: the Sunrise and Sunshine Services. Under Pastor ID's leadership, the numerical growth of the Church has increased from 1,800 in September 2007 to about 4,500 in October 2010.

    Please join us as we unravel together this never-ending story of God's love and favour (over-generous preferential treatment) in every area of our lives.

    We welcome you to the City of David, where the love of God reigns and dreams come true; where legends are born and tomorrow's history is experienced today.

    The only begotten Son of God the Father.

    The Holy Spirit

    The Comforter and Teacher of all things, who dwells within us, uniting us to Jesus.

    The Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ

    That Jesus Christ died at Calvary for the sins of mankind. He rose from death in His glorified body on the third day, and He ascended into Heaven where He is seated at the right hand of God the Father.

    The Blood of Jesus Christ

    Which was shed for us at Calvary. It cleanses us of all sin and grants us access into the presence of God.

    Salvation

    It is the gift from God through grace and faith in Christ Jesus. That all who believe in the name of Jesus Christ may be saved by turning from sin to repentance, and are born again by the Holy Spirit through trusting in His death and resurrection.

    The Baptism of the Holy Spirit

    Is available to all who believe in Jesus Christ, and is evidenced by the gift of speaking in tongues.

    Water Baptism

    By immersion in water as Jesus was baptized

    Sanctification

    Separation from the world unto God - life of true holiness.

    The Second Coming of Jesus Christ

    That Jesus Christ will come again in Glory and in Power. Those dead in Christ will rise first and those alive in Christ will be in the presence of God for eternity.

    The Holy Bible

    Is the infallible and authoritative Word of God for eternity.
