The wife of the General Overseer (GO) of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, Folashade Olukoya, has urged youths and young adults to embrace God and righteousness to enable them to get to the greatest level that God has destined for them.

She also called on them to desist from sexual immorality, which according to her, is a means the devil is using to steal their virtues and God-given potential.

Olukoya, who ministered during a special youth programme at Magodo Youth Church, Region 28, Lagos State, on the theme: “Taking Possession of the gate for your next level,” stressed that youths and young adults could only achieve lasting greatness by God’s power.

She said that there was no crooked means to achieve one’s divine greatness unless through God, and daily renewal of one’s mind with the word of God, through prayers, as well as welcoming positive thoughts in line with God’s agenda for one’s lives.

Olukoya, who insisted that only Christian youths that have given their lives to Jesus Christ and accepted Him as their personal Lord and Saviour could attain God’s divine greatness for their lives, however, urged them to stand in boldness against every unrighteous sinful nature and acts which the devil is using to trample on them. She, therefore, admonished youths to be careful of what enters their brain and mouth, and use different parts of their body to glorify God.

The wife of the GO said that the passion of her husband, Dr Daniel Olukoya and the church was to ensure that youths and young adults are captured for Christ with different deliverance programmes to enable them fulfil God’s purpose in their lives.

On his part, the Regional Overseer in charge of MFM Magodo Youth Church, Pastor Kayode Adekunle Elijah, said the church was aligned with the vision of the General Overseer for establishing youth churches.

He said that through various programmes and ministrations in the church, many youths had given their lives to Jesus Christ, adding: “Youths from the clubs are now established in the church, prostitutes have likewise turned from darkness to light.”
