Tongues at Pentecost, Deliverance and Testimonies at SCOAN

At Pentecost, all the nations gathered together. They heard and understood the Gospel of Jesus Christ proclaimed in their respective native languages.  It is always a great opportunity to experience and understand the Holy Ghost Person and His role in our everyday lives as Christians. Jesus had commanded His disciples to wait at Jerusalem for the promise of the Father and that they would be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence, (Acts 1:4-5).

When the day of Pentecost fully came, they were all with one accord in one place. Suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. They were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. There were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of "Every Nation Under Heaven", (Acts 2: 1-10).

The biggest miracle happening at the Synagogue Church of All Nations, (SCOAN), headed by its founder and Bishop, Prophet TB Joshua, is seeing someone receiving Jesus as their Saviour and witnessing a life transformation immediately. Personal salvation in Jesus Christ is the only miracle that has eternal value. At every meeting held by SCOAN, many lives are transformed from darkness to light, from waywardness to living straight in Christ Jesus. We also always witness instant signs and miracles that point people to Jesus Christ that loves them and truly setting captives free. People receiving healing instantly, others delivered from demonic powers and different types of affliction or from addiction to vices and ruinous ways of living. Their immediate uninfluenced confessions and testimonies are enough proofs of the power and presence of the Holy Ghost.

The impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has led to a dramatic loss of human life globally and unprecedented challenges to personal and public health, food systems, unemployment and national productivities. The economic and social disruption caused by the pandemic is incalculable. As part of its contribution to facing up to the challenges of the pandemic SCOAN organized a novel programme tagged, "Distance not a Barrier to the Move of God". Thousands of people have already benefitted from it because they believe. In continuation to further arrest the pandemic and its negative consequences Prophet TB Joshua introduced an "Advanced New Anointing Water" and distributing it across the globe. Nigeria is benefitting from this every weekend where Prophet TB Joshua brings Emmanuel TV partners to his very "Beautiful Prayer Mountain". It is hoped that each partner will become Christ's evangelist to their neighbourhoods across Nigeria. Freely we have received and freely we should also give. Whilst you keep watching Emmanuel.TV we also hope you will keep praying for Prophet TB Joshua and all men and women of God all over the world. It is then that we can experience the tongues, the healing, deliverance of the Holy Ghost and have personal testimonies. Emmanuel.
