Gods servant Bishop David Oyedepo just clocked 62 years. He was on assignment during this time and had a blessed time oversees and also a wonderful experience with his mentor Kenneth Copeland... below are some of the pictures from his private birthday dinner in the U.S.A and a time with his mentor.. also attached are some powerful quotes by Gods servant Bishop Oyedepo.......

1. God is helpless without your obedience. Write it down. It is obedience to the truth that triggers the miraculous.

2. There are no men of timber and calibre here. Everyone is a covenant timber and calibre.

3. The blessing of Deuteronomy 28 is anchored in verse 1. If you miss verse 1, every other thing is just rhetoric, saying or chanting something you don't even understand.

4. Every discovery leads to access to your recovery...Don’t look at what somebody else is doing, do what you have been asked to do; and engage with it as if you are the only one who heard it. Because He does not reward groups, He rewards individuals.

5. God doesn’t discriminate – He chooses you based on what you have chosen.

6. There may not be a scientific link between water and wine but if He says fill the pots with water, that's where your answer lies. You may have a swimming pool in your house, but if He says go to Jordan to wash, that's where your answer lies.

7. Even if I lay legs on you, it can’t change your position without obedience. The greatest benefit in redemption lies in stewardship. (See Ex. 23:25; Job 36:11)

8. The devil is not your problem; your not being in partnership with Christ is your problem. Take your eyes off the devil.

9. Wisdom is knowing the right thing to do from the Word and doing it. You seek one thing to gain command of all other things...that’s why I call it a covenant jackpot.

10. Those who walk do so by common sense; those who run, run by principles; and those who fly, fly by instructions. That’s why at the Aviation school, you have instructors, not professors.

11. The eagle doesn’t flap its wings – it goes with the wind. If you go where the Spirit of God is going, you don’t struggle.

12. When you are in partnership with God, he that walketh with the wise shall be wise. You begin to walk on the frequency of heaven’s wisdom. You can't be walking in God’s wisdom and be having crises at home!

13. We have over-celebrated common sense, that’s why we miss out of divine sense (divine wisdom).

14. God is helpless without your obedience. Write it down. It is obedience to the truth that triggers the miraculous.

15. The Word does not work because we preach it; it does not work because we quote it; it does not work because we love it; it works because we DO it.

16. Every drug has an expiry date except the Word.

17. Every other book is made up of letters; the Bible is made up of wonders. And part of the wonders is divine nature.

18. Now tell me, what is a man doing with 2 cars when he is only just starting a business? Meanwhile, he is all over the place looking for capital. He is committing a capital sin!

19. There's no technicality in confession. Practice word addiction, confession becomes natural.

20. The eagle has unusual strength…eat the lion’s meal which is the gospel of Christ. Go for the ‘treated’ Word of the Lord…generate enough heat to chase the devil out of your life.

21. There is no way you can use scientific measures to understand the truth of the gospel, because it is far above it. Science cannot authenticate the truth. God says: For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways (Isaiah 55:. That is why we cannot use the wisdom of this world to authenticate the truth of God’s word. You have to be spiritually minded to grasp the things of God. Embrace the ‘foolishness’ of the gospel, so that your wisdom can be established upon the earth, because the foolishness of God is wiser than men and His weakness is stronger than men. So whatever He tells you to do, do it, or you keep going in circles.

22. I always take it all and swallow it raw when God speaks to me.

23. A Covenant is an unbreakable platform, you either subscribe to its terms or you remain on the same spot. Since I subscribed to the Covenant, I have never suffered any financial stress. You are angry with me, that's your problem.

24. You don't need an eighteen-hour vision to fulfill your glorious destiny; you just need to catch your own picture on the pages of Scriptures.

25. Life is an adventure in opportunities. Your access to the top lies in your delightsome obedience to His words. (See Deut. 28:1)

Great man of God, but that head na sunlight? Lolz



God will continue to keep you & your family sir....no harm shall ever come your way. Many more blessings IJN.....Amen

also here is his meeting with his mentor pastor kenneth copeland

Mimidiva:
and some people don't have rice to eat at home

Haba now! That doesn't mean he shouldn't eat rice just because some people cannot afford it.

Mimidiva:

I mean no such

Okay

26. As we all know, there is no software for prayers, neither one for reaching out to the lost but going after them practically and spiritually. In the same vein, there is no software for bringing people to church but going out to compel them to come until there is no more room in the inn.

27. Commit to serving the Lord. When you give God your strength, He gives you back His strength.

28. Jesus is still saying: ‘Let me ride on your back and you will enjoy my honour. When you are carrying Jesus, nothing can hurt you.

29. Divine health is the entitlement of every soul-winner: Jesus, the all-round physician, becomes your personal physician. (See John 15:2)

30. The peace of God that passes all understanding becomes the portion of every soul-winner.” (See Mk.4:37-39)

31. Jesus is still saying to us today: ‘let me have your boat and you will have my blessings; give me your time, and you will have access to my timeless blessings; give me your skills and you will qualify for my endless favours; give me your strength and you will command exploits.” (See Lk.5v1-

32. If winning souls doesn't make you excited, I don't know what else will. He that sits in the heavenly places shall laugh. If what gets heaven excited doesn't get you excited, what else will? The heavens rejoice over one soul that gives their life to Christ.

33. Among the blessing of soul winning is sound health. Whatever represents an assault on your health is swallowed up.

34. Seeking God first is the master key to every door of life. Matthew 6:33 is the master key of life. I saw it about 40 years ago. There's no impossible case against Matthew 6:33. So anyone who signs up...this year marks the end of your struggles in life. If you will buy into Matthew 6:33, you will not only be married, you will have children at the time you desire, and you will see your children's children...

35. Get all of your new converts and ask them to come with their friends to show that they love them. Tell them Jesus heals all manner of sicknesses and diseases here, and you will be shocked how many of them will show up. The harvest field is over ripe, all you need is to shake the tree and the fruits will start falling.

36. When you hit God’s benchmark, your job will be looking for you. They will Google your name just to give you a job. Focus on hitting God’s benchmark. If you engage to the level that He expects then you must see His hands. You are nearer than ever, so keep pressing. If your investment is genuine, you must see returns.

37. Reward is on results obtained not on participation. It is HE THAT REAPETH, not he that goeth out. (See John 4:36)

38. God does not reward groups, He pays individuals. So get ready for your pay, a very fat pay from God.

39. All soul winners are gospel marketers. If they don't buy from you, you don't get any commission. (See Luke 7:16)

40. You get hooked up to God to an extent that He won't wait for you to ask before He answers.” (See Isaiah 65:4)

41. There are two levels of returns in soul-winning namely: the reward realm and the enthronement realm...He that reapeth receives wages, but he that CONTINUES is enthroned. (See Luke 22:35; 28-30)

42. God's benchmark differs from one individual unto another... unto whom much is given, much is also expected. What that much is, is determined by God. If your MUCH MARK is 10 and you have 7 already, stop clapping for yourself until you get to 10. Until your cloud is full, your rain will not drop.

43. Until anyone's cloud is full, His rain will never fall. We must keep filling our cloud until it's full enough to result into showers of rain – praying for souls to be saved, and established, praying for church growth, reaching out to more souls, following them so hard until they are established in the faith. Just one more step, and suddenly, the rain will start dropping. We must get there in Jesus name. (See Eccl. 11:3)

44. The master must meet us on duty when He comes down with our prizes.” (See Matthew 24:45-46)

45. Seek for a partner that will keep you going consistently; He sent them two by two.

46. I knew in stewardship lies the greatness of my destiny.

47. When you are truly in service, you are dangerously defended.

48. Serving God protects. It preserves and defends us; Serving God pays both in time and in eternity.

49. God specializes in granting open rewards to every secret labour. (See Matthew 6:6, 17-18)

50. Matthew 6:24-33: This is my greatest discovery in faith. This is what gives me assurance of the future that is stronger than the present.

51. One of the proofs of acceptable stewardship is Favour. If favour is not there, check whether your service is acceptable. (See Daniel 6:20)

52. Kingdom stewardship is a private investment. The testimonies reveal whose service is acceptable and whose is not.

53. It is not inviting people that brings them; it is praying the satanic hold that holds people to be broken that brings them. (See Luke 11:22)

54. Supernatural church growth is impossible without your prayer investment. Thank God for gospel raids but thank God for the PRAYER RAIDS which empowers the gospel raids.

55. You birth them in prayer, and sustain them with prayers. Every other thing is foolery. (See Isaiah 5:26; Acts 2:6; 2Kings 7:4-7)

56. Everyone that's a part of the multiplication becomes a partaker of the glorification.

57. Matthew 6:33 is the scripture that guarantees the future of every Christian.

58. Every input has returns, but spiritual input has everlasting returns (See Proverbs 14:23)

59. A redeemed soul is the most valuable treasure to God on the earth. (See Matthew 16:26; Romans 8:32)

60. Every soul-winner is on God's payroll. (See John 4:36, Luke 22:35; Exodus 23:25-6)

61. WHEN LAXITY is engaged in the season of harvest, it ends up in reproach. Our diligence is the pathway to our distinction. (See Proverbs 10:5)

62. Serving God is classified as business. Voluntary service has no profit...Stewardship to God is a decision made by man. God will never choose for you, God will only enable your choice. (See Luke 2:49. Romans 12:11; Joshua 24:15...)
