A three-day spiritual revival for Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) members ended at the weekend with prayer for Nigeria’s peace and greatness. The event witnessed crowds of members across Nigeria converging at its Prayer Mountain located at Agodo, Egbe Ikotun in Lagos.

Though meant primarily for the Nigerian audience, a crowd of foreign visitors still besieged the Mountain in somber penitence of faith and high expectations.

The intensive programme, which also ran through the nights was of marathon prayers and fasting as directed by the Holy Spirit for those who have the grace to participate.

For the three days, the SCOAN Prayer Mountain was turned into a “Wailing Wall” reminiscent of the “Wailing Wall” in Jerusalem where faithful adherents pray consistently to God.

Thousands of worshippers in enthusiasm, ecstasy, walking, crying, rolling, and moving around in different ways of the spiritual resort according to how they feel comfortable to pour out their hearts and supplications to God in a serene, cool, composed, calm and collected atmospheric conditions where nature and the spirit of man co-mingle.

SCOAN’s leader, Pastor Evelyn Joshua in welcoming and congratulating the participants stated: “We are not in this Mountain on our own, we are here today and for the three days at God’s command for our revival.

“Heaven is aware that you are here and because heaven is aware of your presence, your case is settled. This is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it. His word says ‘come’ and you have come. We are therefore here to fulfill all righteousness. It’s done!”

The programme was not without moments of singing and dancing daily to praise, thank and glorify the name of the Lord. Several people also received deliverance and healing with outstanding testimonies.

The event also witnessed an enduring biblical interactive and rigorous teaching with the theme: “Obedience to God,” where the biblical prophet Jonah was thoroughly dissected for worshippers to learn that God’s will is adamantine; you must unconditionally be obedient to God’s instructions because you cannot hide from Him.

The revival, which also brings restoration, was a huge success as people joyously in high spirits filed out of the Mountain singing and praising ‘God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob and God of T.B Joshua in Jesus name for His great and marvelous deeds in their lives.

Worshippers said the revival has rejuvenated and invigorated the SCOAN’s spiritual slogan, ‘Emmanuel’: God is really with them as the church is waxing stronger with the demonstrations of God’s raw powers exhibited on the Mountain.
