“I am not your General Overseer; my dear husband and our dear
father, the prophet for generations, Senior Prophet T.B. Joshua, remains the
founder and General Overseer of The SCOAN.”
“I represent the symbol of that love.”
“We will work together, pray together, fight the fight of
faith together, win together so that we can all inherit the everlasting home
together.”
This she said in her spirit filled speech as she made a
clarion call to all partners and members of the SCOAN worldwide to work
hand-in-hand with her new leadership to move the ministry forward.
Below is her address as
posted on the ministry official Facebook page:
A SPECIAL ADDRESS FROM
EVELYN JOSHUA
I am pleased to address you at this moment upon my
appointment as the leader of The SCOAN. To all our members, Partners, friends
and compatriots in faith, I say, Good Morning and Win Today. It has been three
months since the glorious home call of our dear father, founder and General
Overseer, Senior Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua, which occurred on 5th June,
2021.
These past three months have surely been challenging, but we
thank you all for remaining strong and for keeping the faith as we had been
trained, built, instructed and taught by God's servant himself that trials are
the soil upon which faith flourishes. We salute your faith.
Today, like always, is a new dawn in The SCOAN. As we all
know, Prophet T.B. Joshua fought the good fight of the Kingdom and finished
strong, to the glory of God. We have now commenced the journey from where our
father left the baton. He had already prepared us all for this new phase, and
we must rise up to the occasion as a team under the command of God and the
direction of the Holy Spirit. This journey is for us all.
The SCOAN cannot be without you - all the members, Partners
and friends of the Ministry. So, this now serves as a clarion call for you all
to rise as an army of God as we push this Great Commission forward.
I am not your General Overseer; my dear husband and our dear
father, the prophet for generations, Senior Prophet T.B. Joshua, remains the
founder and General Overseer of The SCOAN.
Like my beloved husband used to say, "Let love
lead." Today, I represent the symbol of that love, even as he continues to
reside by the right hand of his Maker. I am only a servant who, under the
leadership and direction of the Holy Spirit, will team up with you all to
direct the affairs of this great Ministry.
We will work together, pray together, fight the fight of
faith together, win together so that we can all inherit the everlasting home
together.
I know that we have all missed the congregation of our
brethren for the past one and a half years, but let me assure you that as God
leads, we shall all soon converge again and worship God together as a family.
So, watch out! There is no gainsaying the fact that I and the entire team - we
need your prayers, support, encouragement and advice all at this time. The duty
is much, the burden is heavy, but we will all cast them unto Jesus, who has
already given a promise of His help.
I thank you all once again for the love and support you have
shown to this Ministry and Senior Prophet T.B. Joshua for the past years. But
if there is any time to show that love more, the time is now. Let me again
assure you, as it has always been the watchword of this Ministry, that God is
always with us.
Emmanuel! God bless you all.
Thank you.
