Weeks ago, Pastor Spencer was led by the Lord to teach on the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Pastor has been teaching on faith, word of knowledge, word of wisdom and prophecy so far. Today, pastor taught us about discerning of spirits. We must understand that we are spirit beings and there is a whole realm of things going on around us that we can’t see.
Before the service, several men spoke independently about the trouble with sending kids to Christian schools. Students are forced to participate in spiritually dead chapel services and taught by people about the things of God, who have not experienced the gifts of the Spirit in their lives. No one else knew about these chats. Following the Bible teaching, God showed pastor that several people needed to deal with their bad habits and needed to cut off the sin.
At the end of the service Pastor Mariko came forward and called for those who had attended or were attending Christian schools to come forward for prayer as their was much spiritual damage that needed to be reversed. Then a guest from Australia was called forward to pray for them. On stage, the guest revealed she was a former Christian school teacher. God had His hand on the service. She was nearly terminated by her school in Australia three times because she allowed her students to seek the Lord with all they had. The students were so hungry for God that they didn’t want to go to the playground but wanted to stay in the classrooms and hear about the things of God she shared.
The prayer time continued and the Catholic and Christian school students were touched visibly as some fell, shook where they stood, or just laid on the floor soaking God’s presence.
In the closing, Pastor shared how God had ordered the service. Men were talking about damage caused by Christian schools on people thinking they knew God when they didn’t, separately Mariko called up students not knowing about these earlier discussions, and a former Christian school teacher was asked to pray for the students and former students who came forward. God’s hand was on the service despite none of us knowing about these things until the end.
People got personal prophecies and direction as the gifts of God’s Holy Spirit operated freely this Sunday. Truly, we desire more of the Holy Spirit gifts to operate at our church. Praise His Name!
Victory Life Groups have been growing. People are more hungry for God and His ways in their lives. Sunday service is just not enough to thrive spiritually. The better we know God’s Word, the better we know the God of the Word. As you prosper spiritually you will prosper in your health, finances, family, and all areas of life.
In this new year, Victory is changing the name of the Life Groups. The new name for these small group meetings outside church service each weekend will be called,

2017 is the year of prosperity for all those who are willing to open that door
At the beginning of the year, a powerful message was shared by Pastor’s wife Mariko.
Mariko has seen visions of several doors and its keys at the end of the year.
“The Lord opens the door and is waiting for us, approaching God through that door. That’s up to you!”
In the New Year, Job 36:32 talks about how God will throw a lot of lightning bolts of power to us. It is a tremendously large, strong power … it is healing, it’s God’s economy and prosperity…
It’s all we need and more. God will give you a miracle to receive it when you believe. But, that has conditions. Through the door must be opened, and you must enter inside. Entering those doors is to forcefully and strongly seek God!
“I am the gate. If anyone enters through me, I can be saved.”(John 10:9)
Whether you will receive the message from God is completely up to you! ️
Hallelujah!
