THE SPIRIT FILLED-SPEECH BY MRS. EVENLY JOSHUA

“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.”

 


The Chairperson and leader of the Synagogue Church of all Nations, Lagos, Mrs. Evelyn Joshua, has declared that her husband, Prophet TB Joshua, remains the General Overseer and Founder of the SCOAN.

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:

TB Joshua, The SCOAN, Emmanuel TV, Evelyn


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.

Church Audit: No One Detained, Victimized in The SCOAN

TB Joshua, SCOAN, Emmanuel TV, Evelyn Joshua


The leadership of Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) said no person is in detention or being victimized over the ongoing audit of the church.

SCOAN clarified a statement on Sunday signed by its Head of Legal Department, Mr James Akhigbe, to disabuse public perception of misguided information being peddled on social media.

The church debunked social media reports about the arrest and detention of some disciples of the Church by the newly appointed SCOAN Board of Trustees (BOT) Chairperson and Leader of the Church, Mrs Evelyn TB. Joshua.

Henceforth, SCOAN wants the public and friends of the church to disregard such reports as they are untrue.

“It is a narrative conjured by detractors to discredit the Church.

“We stand in the light and we cannot compromise the ideal and legacy of our mentor and founder, late Senior Prophet TB Joshua on integrity, spiritual worship, unconditional love and humanitarianism.

“The public will recall that on Sept. 9TH 2021, the Board Of Trustees BOT of SCOAN appointed Mrs Evelyn TB Joshua widow of the late founder, its Chairperson.

“This followed an order of the Federal High Court in Suit No. FHC/L/CP/1109/2021 which appointed Mrs Evelyn TB.Joshua as a Trustee.

“The BOT had also appointed Mrs TB Joshua as the new leader of the Church with ratification by not less than 2,000 congregations of the Church at a meeting on Thursday, Sept.9, 2021.”

“The church leadership took steps to secure certain critical assets of the Church with an authorisation for a comprehensive audit of the activities of the SCOAN since the founder passed away.

“This inventory involved some category of church workers including Disciples and it is being carried out objectively under a regular and normal environment without any harassment of persons.

“Contrary to the falsehood now being peddled by mischief makers in the media the audit is not to intimidate anyone as it is to strengthen the organisation,” it said. (NAN)

Did Evelyn Joshua Evicted TB Joshua’s Disciple out of SCOAN?

 

tb joshua ,evelyn joshua, scoan, Emmanuel tv

There have been videos circulating on social media showing supposed disciples of TB Joshua packing their belongings out of the SCOAN. Those packing were alleged to have been evicted by our Mummy, Mrs Evelyn Joshua, the wife of Prophet TB Joshua. This latest episode is being purported to be part of a leadership tussle going on at the SCOAN.

Why one would have chosen to remain silent from this falsehood been spread by mischief makers who have been imagining a leadership tussle which in reality is non-existing, but for the sake of clarifying to the public who may be misled by this falsehood and start making false judgment hence this clarification.

It is important to know that there is no leadership tussle at the SCOAN and Mrs Evelyn Joshua did not evict TB Joshua’s disciples out of the SCOAN.

Those who are alleged to have left SCOAN left there at their own accord. Mrs Evenly Joshua is a kind-hearted mother with an embodiment of love just as her husband Prophet TB Joshua, she is not taken any revenge on anyone or trying to position herself as the general overseer of the SCOAN.

We must recognize the fact that she has a legal claim to everything at the SCOAN, including becoming the spiritual head as the general overseer. She is, however, not desperate for any position instead she has to commit everything under God’s will.

Mrs Evelyn Joshua was recently confirmed as one of the trustees of the SCOAN, by the Church constitution there are three trustees since the husband demise it is normal for her the wife to take her husband place as the trustees and this is part of the state law for organisations that are regulated by the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) in Nigeria.

This position as one of the trustees of the SCOAN is to fulfil all righteousness following the state laws. Mrs Evelyn Joshua has never claim to be the new general overseer of the SCOAN, she called her position “human Leadership” of the Church.

That alone is to confirm her sense of humility and to buttress the fact that she is open to God’s will and not in any way in a hurry or desperate to make herself the general overseer of the SCOAN.



Normally, not every one of TB Joshua’s disciples and Church workers may want to work with the new leadership at the SCOAN and those that are leaving are doing it at their own will and not that they are being evicted has been reported in the News and social media.

It is also important we understand that those that are leaving are not in any way bad persons it’s just their personal decision which every one of us most respect. They are still our brethren in the vineyard of Christ and we all have to always put them in our prayers.

As it stands right now, Mrs Evelyn Joshua needs all our support, prayers and love. She has made us understand in her speech that SCOAN is open to everyone.

We pray for God’s wisdom upon our mummy, Mrs Evenly Joshua in the cause of her new "human leadership" position in piloting the affair of the SCOAN. We as well pray for more understanding and unity of purpose amongst the disciples, workers and SCOAN family worldwide.

The gate of hell shall not prevail against the Church.

TB Joshua Legacy Lives on! Emmanuel! God With Us!

GOD’S GRACE IS NOT FOR SALE - PROPHET TB JOSHUA




“One of the big secrets of my life I want to share with you – all these crusades you see me doing around the world such as in Singapore, Indonesia, Mexico, Peru etc. – I pay most of the money. We don’t control the Holy Spirit! Let me pray for whom God wants me to pray for. Don’t pay and then start bringing your brother, sister or cousin for prayer. If you pay for the stadium for me, you will collect money from big businessmen that are sick – they will be the ones you arrange in front, telling me, 'Pray for this one, Man of God – he is the one who paid seventy percent of the money'. God cannot cooperate with or support such an arrangement. Or you are telling me to come out at 8am when the Spirit of God said I should come out at 10am. My accommodation – I don’t let them know where I am going to lodge. After the crusade, you can know where I am living but before and during the crusade, I will not allow you to come to me. You cannot see me until after the crusade. 

“I will enter your country with money and I will go out of the country and not take your money out of the country; it is a rule and regulation because the grace is not for sale. My joy is to see people healed; my joy is to see people delivered; my joy is to see people blessed. That is my money. Each person that is delivered is more than $20,000 to me! Imagine in each crusade how many people are delivered! That is the money God gives me - the joy to sleep in peace. You need to know what it means if God uses you to heal and deliver people. If you know what it means, you will want to heal and deliver people all the time. If you know what it means – the joy in God using you to deliver people – you will never ask the people you deliver to bring money. Even if they want to give you, you will beg them not to destroy your life. 

“If you know what it is for God to use you to set someone free from their problems – it’s more than a trillion dollars. Don’t wait for the person to say, ‘Thank you’. That is why, after praying for you, I quickly leave. God has given me something more than ‘Thank you!” If God uses you to remove the pain of one, you are more than a millionaire. You believe your reward is money – no! If money is your gain, you are robbing yourself. That money is insufficient; it cannot give you peace. Money cannot buy you peace. If money could give you peace, many of you would not be here today. That is why you just see me at Ikotun-Egbe. From Ikotun-Egbe – look at the glory of God!” - Prophet TB Joshua

THE ENDLESS HATRED FOR PROPHET TB JOSHUA

TB Joshua, The SCOAN, Prophet, Emmanuel TV, Anointing water


In John 17, Jesus prayed that his followers would be one. The unity He mentioned here is not necessarily achieved by mere talking but through the Holy Spirit. It is the unity of spirit, heart, purpose, destiny; this is unity founded and rooted in love and not on race, age, status, language, class, social level, backgrounds, denomination and churches. 

This shows that unity among the broader body of Jesus Christ is very important to Jesus. Sadly, even when He prayed for unity, division and persecution; hatred is what we experience daily.

The Christian world has allowed religious people and the enemies of Jesus to have the upper hand on their journey of righteousness. But, Prophet TB Joshua refused to be a conformist and did not allow himself to be captured by these enemies of love and unity, hence the negative attitude towards him.

Prophet TB Joshua once said: “What they understand, they destroy but what they don’t understand they call names”.

So, the predisposition of these leaders toward self-deception, coupled with satan’s pervasive and deceptive influence as well as turning a blind eye on God’s Word, is a major barrier to their understanding of Prophet TB Joshua. 

As they profess to be “Christians”, it is expected that they will use the Word of God as a reference to judge TB Joshua but it seems not to be the case.

The most interesting thing about these people is whether they understand the Word of God or not or they just ignore it. What they don’t realize is that failing to understand the Word of God is failing to understand God himself because He is the Word. So people of God should not be surprised to hear what is said about TB Joshua. If they are failing to understand God, and His Word, we should not expect them to understand Prophet TB Joshua.

Jesus said in John 15:18-25: “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will keep yours also.” 

If Jesus Christ was hated here on earth, what do we expect from a servant of Christ-like Prophet TB Joshua?

Like all the saints, the crime TB Joshua committed was to follow God’s commands and His ways as well as prove to the world that Jesus still heals and deliver.

He taught his followers to worship God only, to trust God only, to have faith in God only and not man, to worship God willingly and genuinely as well as giving, loving, forgiving and praying the way Jesus want us to.

This has attracted great attention on Prophet TB Joshua. With followership and love from multitudes of all kinds, races and classes from all over the world.

On the other hand, he exposed his haters who are in the business of misleading people of God in the name of Jesus. Instead of uniting with TB Joshua to promote the kingdom of God, they started attacking him.

The good thing about this is that while the persecutions and hatred increase, he continues to follow the path of love, patience and forbearance knowing that he is only accountable to God and this is the reason we didn’t see him fighting back even to his last day on earth.

As it is written in (Titus 1:10): “There are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers”. 

Therefore, you and I should know that no one and NO CHURCH is in any position to pass judgment on "God's Chosen Vessel". 

Scriptural History shows profusely that every true Prophet and Messenger of God was mostly misunderstood and finally rejected by all except a bare minority that God used them to minister to.

Jesus was mostly persecuted by the religious establishment working with governments, which mainly reflected the values and goals of the world in opposition to God. We should not forget that one may be religious and very much part of the world.

So if you find yourself asking why TB Joshua is hated you will be contradicting what Jesus said. The hatred of TB Joshua by this world which is currently under satanic control is simply an evident and a guarantee that he has been chosen by Christ and this has put him into direct conflict with satan.

I have always wondered if these so-called ministers of the gospel that show hatred towards TB Joshua realize that they are failing our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ because the validity of His ministry was and is based on unity and love of His people and this unity helps the world to believe that the Father sent Him, the Son.

These so-called followers of Jesus, are doing more damage to the Church than the unbelievers. 

How will the world believe in Jesus Christ when Christian bodies are promoting what is contrary to what Jesus represent and His prayers for us in John 17:21. Are these people reading the same Holy Bible we read, do they worship the same Jesus Christ who died on the cross for me and them? 

No wonder Jesus said in Matthew 7:15-20: “by their fruits, you will know them”. 

Jesus' words here are a powerful warning that many are coming in His name but are actively and deliberately seeking to lead us away from the truth. 

If they were living in the days of John the Baptist, they were not going to recognize him as a true Prophet of God because John came apart from every school of religious thought. He was not a priest, though he was entitled by birth to be one. 

Like Prophet TB Joshua, no mentor, not educated either formally or religiously by men and not belonging to any Christian body in Nigeria and the world over. I am talking about a man who fasted forty days and night seeking God opinion about his calling. He was chosen by God Almighty; filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother's womb, and that same Spirit that taught him everything is behind what is manifesting in SCOAN today including distance is not a barrier prayer session which is for free. 

Emmanuel! God With Us!

IS THE SCOAN A FAMILY BUSINESS SUBJECT TO INHERITANCE?

There is a difference between Mr TB Joshua and Prophet TB Joshua

The Synagogue Church of all Nations is neither a Family Business nor a property that is subject to inheritance

The Prophet gave instructions which are to be followed prayerfully  

TB Joshua, The SCOAN, Emmanuel TV, Evelyn


Glory to Our Lord God and Saviour Jesus Christ whom according to His wisdom called home His Prophet to rest in His abode. May His name be praised forevermore! Amen!

As faithful disciples at the SCOAN continue to wait at the ‘upper room’ in prayers of faiths and the fullness of the Holy Spirit for impartation, grace and strength in continuances of the move of God at the SCOAN, this seemingly delay seems to be generating mixed feelings amongst many who may have purported this to be a leadership crisis at the SCOAN.

Many expect that as it is done out there, immediately, after the internment of the Prophet, a new leadership should have been ceremoniously installed – someone who will take over the mantel of leadership from Prophet TB Joshua.

This unconventional move by the SCOAN seems to be generating rumours that are being spread by mischief-makers. Alleging that a group of ‘powerful TB Joshua’s women’ at the SCOAN are against Evelyn Joshua assuming the leadership role at the SCOAN.

Understandably, many may be sympathetic to the wife of the Prophet, Evenly Joshua to assume the role of her late husband, but it is important to know that this is not how things of the Spirit are done.

Does that mean Evelyn Joshua cannot take over as the General overseer of the SCOAN? Far from it.

Evelyn Joshua is herself a disciple of Prophet TB Joshua, she is qualified to take over from her late husband, just as every other Prophet, Prophetess and Evangelist at the SCOAN are also qualified to take over the leadership mantel of the Prophet.

If someone else is appointed as the new leader does that mean she will just concede everything to them?

We must understand that the Prophet Wife, Evelyn Joshua does not need to be the General oversee of the SCOAN to continue to function as the Mother of all nations.

She is the wife of the Prophet and nobody can take that away from her and she has a huge role to play in the management of the affairs of the SCOAN and also sustaining the legacy of her husband. However, she doesn’t have to be ceremoniously installed as the general overseer of the SCOAN to play that role.

We also need to know that most of these questions about succession have long been answered in the past by Prophet TB Joshua. Remember that our God is not the author of confusion.

True followers of the Prophet should have known by now what the Prophet stands is on the issue of succession and they should by now be counselling the wife and the disciples accordingly if at all there is an issue being generated about it.

Let’s take a look at the Prophet words in his last interview. Remember that the words of a man in his last days hold huge significance.

Prophet TB Joshua has always emphasised the fact that his biological life is different from his Spiritual life. He will always say there is a difference between Mr TB Joshua and Prophet TB Joshua.

When he was asked why much is not known about his wife and family he said “…I would have loved my wife to be like me but I cannot make her what I am; it is God. It is not possible for me to anoint her, God is the one that anoints people. So, it is not possible for her to sit here at the same time, this is not biological issue; it is an inheritance from the saints, it is a partaker from the saints. Therefore, I should not use anything in my biological life to stop my spiritual life.

I am a native of Arigidi Akoko but as for my divine nature I am a partaker of the inheritance of the saints, therefore, it is so difficult for me. This is an apostolic ministry. It is not a ministry you read bible, go to theology school, you get it and you start preaching. No! It is purely divine. So, it is so difficult for me to display my wife, she has to be ready for God. As much as you are ready for God, God will display her.”

In the same interview, when the Prophet was asked about the issue of succession, he said “This is where God comes in; it is not a business venture. If it is God, then it is God and then it is true. The issue of family should not come into the issue of the church – that is it; it is undeserved grace. ”

I don’t think anybody loves TB Joshua’s Biological daughters and wife, Evelyn Joshua more than Prophet TB Joshua.

The Prophet has continued to emphasise that the Synagogue Church of all nations is neither a family business nor a property that is subject to inheritance.

Therefore, don’t use SCOAN to compare other Churches where the wife or the first son took over after the death of the husband or father. After all, there are also other popular Churches out there, which we don’t want to mention names where neither the wife nor family member took over as the general overseer when the founder passed away.

Even in the same interview, the Prophet seems to be suggesting that the Five Prophets and Prophetesses at the SCOAN right now have taken over from him.

Saying “There are five prophets and prophetesses; they are working. They have taken over from me already. There is an American, a British, a French, and a Nigerian.

I won’t miss words to say that anybody who is trying to push Evelyn Joshua or any of the disciples to go against the will of the Prophet does not mean well for the SCOAN. The Prophet has always warned us to beware of good intentions people. We are not here to glorify men’s emotion or sentiment but lay open to the divine will of God.

The SCOAN has said they are not dealing with leadership issues and that there were instructions given to them by the Prophet. I think our prayers now is for God to give them the grace to follow that instruction and not fall prey to distractors and opinionists whose intentions call to questions.

TB Joshua Lives On.

PRAY FOR YOUR ENEMIES! Prophet TB Joshua

 


"The Bible says, 'I will set a table before you in the presence of your enemies'. If your enemy is not there, the table will be useless. It's good for your enemy to see what you become. What they thought you cannot become - it's good for your enemy to see. They thought you cannot become this or that - it is better they see for themselves. That may change them and win their soul! A good example of what I am talking about is we here in the church today. If we begin to examine the conscience of everyone here and look at the past - at least 50% never thought they would come here. You had a different impression about T.B. Joshua. You stood in opposition towards T.B. Joshua in the past but today, you are alive to see that he is your friend, not your enemy. If you had died then, would you be able to see this?

What is the way out? Pray for your enemy! Prayer from your heart, not from your lips. If you choose the path of praying for your enemy, you will have a great relief. Because you are running to defeat your enemy, it has taken you to many places - spiritually, physically and financially. It has caused you sleepless nights - fear, anxiety, pressure. Every bad thing that happens to you -when you have nightmare - you attribute it to your enemy. The pain you are going through - it's not your enemy that is going through it but you. Why can't you ignore your enemy and move forward? Pray for them! You are the one going through the pain.

When you begin to chase your enemies, you will automatically forget the condition in which you are - because it's not possible to look at two sides. I am going through pain that the enemy caused - and at the same time I am pursuing the enemy that caused it. I will ignore the pain. The pain will be there but how to take care of myself will be ignored. This is why our pain persists. The situation that you are supposed to go through within a week, you are on it for the past one year - because you ignore your condition and you are pursuing your enemies

The bigger your success, the bigger your enemies. Why are you wasting your time when you know it's a normal life? You go through your trial according to your position and I will go through my trial according to my position. It is our position that attracts trials. Your position in life attracts persecution. If your position is big, it will attract big trials. Big blessing will attract big trials. You don't want trials; you don't want success in life. When people talk about you - 'He is a foolish man; she is a foolish woman' - you know it's a recognition! What you are going through should not rule your life. What you are going through does not matter but what matters is whom you are."

- Prophet TB Joshua

TB Joshua Taught us to Take the Bold Step for Jesus Christ

Prophet Tb Joshua, SCOAN, Emmanuel TV


After the Pentecost Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer. There at the gate of the temple they came across a certain man lame from his mother's womb begging alms. Peter and John were also candidates the lame asked an alms. But Peter fastened his eyes on the lame man and said, "Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have to give I thee. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk". Peter took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. In this wise Peter and John took a bold step for Jesus Christ. Prophet TB Joshua, the founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, SCOAN, always used every opportunity to take a bold step for Jesus. He made healing, giving, prophesying, teaching, etc, looked so easy. He also confronted multiple adversaries from the kingdom of darkness with simplicity and courage. Critics even thought that TB Joshua was not praying over the cases, or simply dramatizing them. There was no spirit of fear or spirit of timidity in TB Joshua for God has not given us the spirit of fear. 

In the daily warfare for the kingdom of God, the Christian meets with seemingly numerous difficulties. It is an essential reminder to Christians of any generation and degree that all cowardice, all dread of danger, all shrinking from doing one's duty for fear of man's displeasure, proceeds not from the Spirit of God. From the Spirit of God proceeds the spirit of power, of love, and of a sound mind. 

Part of the legacy of TB Joshua is the understanding that through the grace of God, it is expected that each one he has impacted, will daily take a bold step for Jesus Christ. Our business will henceforth be going out to do exploits for God (Daniel 11:32); because we know God, we are made strong in God and we can do the exploits through the spirit of God. Already we have seen the signs that though we may not see TB Joshua physically with us but God remains our present help forever. God is our God forever and ever and He will be our guide even unto death. Ephesians (4:11-12) states that God gives to the church apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers “for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ". The holy spirit will equip everyone to do the work of the ministry. Every Christian should see their main business as serving God and therefore taking a bold step for Jesus Christ Daily.

OFFICIAL STATEMENT: SUCCESSION BATTLE IN THE SCOAN

TB Joshua, The SCOAN, Prophet, Emmanuel TV, Anointing water
The of Prophet TB Joshua Legacy Lives On


Following the fake news that is being spread on Social Media about an alleged succession battle over who will be the next General Overseer of the Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) since the demise of Prophet TB Joshua.

The SCOAN has now officially released a statement from their official Social Media pages to debunk the rumour to be completely false and should therefore be disregarded.

The statements make it clear that there was an instruction by the Prophet before his demise and that is what they will follow concerning how the SCOAN will be run.

This is, however, not the first time there has been circulation of fake news since the demise of Prophet T.B. Joshua about who will take over from him.

There was the news that some imaginary elders and a group of family members come together to agree to appoint the Prophet wife, Evelyn Joshua to take over as the new General overseer of The SCOAN.

This was around when the wife of the Prophet and the entire SCOAN family were still mourning and preparing for the burial celebration of the Prophet.

It is important the Public know that SCOAN is an Apostolic Ministry that is led by the Spirit of God.

The SCOAN doesn't operate by man-made conventions and theory. Every action in the SCOAN is subject to the directive of the Holy Ghost.

So also is concerning the new leadership of the SCOAN, it will not be based on public opinion, men's emotions, convention and perceptions, it will be based on the directive of the spirit of God.

We understand these are very important moments for the ministry of SCOAN.

We pray for God to grant those at the SCOAN Headquarter the grace to continue to be submissive to His perfect Will in Jesus’ Name! Amen!

Below is the SCOAN official statement:

OFFICIAL STATEMENT

“Our attention has been drawn to an article published in This Day Newspaper on Wednesday July 14th 2021 titled: 'Synagogue: Succession Battle Begins as THISDAY Interview is Cited as Evidence.'

The contents of the article regarding an alleged 'succession battle' are completely false and should therefore be disregarded. We want to inform the general public that there  is no succession battle at The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN). We are sons and daughters of love and shall continue to let love lead as we follow the instructions laid down by Prophet TB Joshua.

Thank you for your prayers and support as we continue to honour the life and legacy of Prophet TB Joshua.”

The Burial of TB Joshua Can't End His Legacy

 

TB Joshua, The SCOAN, Prophet, Emmanuel TV, Anointing water
Prophet TB Joshua (1963-2021)

Most of us watched the burial ceremonies of our beloved Prophet TB Joshua, the founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, SCOAN, from the distance. Many can't even watch because of the emotional attachment and the sweet memories shared with this great man of God. Truly Prophet TB Joshua Lives on in our hearts and in different peoples and communities he was able to impact. He was able to put a significant stamp on the future of the Christian Faith in particular and faith in general.  He made a great contribution to future missionary generations. He made people feel that their lives mattered and that every life is significant with its mission. That he was buried away has not reduced the effects of his teachings and his works. Rather his life and time have become an index, a benchmark, a biblical reference point. Unfortunately, his critics have to sit up and reflect on their missions in life, otherwise, life will sweep them away and nobody will remember them.

A Bible verse we'd learned from Sunday School as a song is Romans 10 verse 9. Romans 10:9. It says that "If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved". Prophet TB Joshua expanded on it to mean that, "There is power in your mouth, the belief in your heart, realized by faith...". He was able to accomplice many miracles holding to this biblical principle.

Prophet TB Joshua also introduced many powerful spirit-lifting songs. One of them is that "Sin Power Over Me is Broken". This has become a popular lyric and translated into many languages and dialects. It will live on forever as part of songs of encouragement and life assurance. Nobody can take this away from TB Joshua by their wired wishful conspiracy theory thinking. The prophet is leaving us with many writings, songs, teachings, and evangelical lifestyle that touches the sinners and common people on the streets. The institutions he built are rational, accessible and affordable to the entire human race.

We have been praying to God to give us the strength to accept this death as coming from Him because just as Jesus matters to the human race, entire Palestine and the Jews in it so has Prophet TB Joshua brought renewed light of Jesus Christ's teaching. In the coming days, and through the power of the Holy Spirit, the bigger legacy of TB JOSHUA will become much more widespread and real. His disciples will prove this through the promise of the Father when they are clothed with power from on high, (Luke 24:49).



TB JOSHUA LIVES ON AND THANK YOU JESUS
