“Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” — Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV)
Prayer covers not only the communication, and the content of the prayer but it also covers our meditation during the times of prayer. It is a divine invitation to commune with God, unlocking His wisdom, power, and guidance. It is not just a religious exercise but a dynamic partnership that brings transformation. Pastor Chris Oyakhilome has often emphasized the vital role of prayer in shaping destinies and manifesting God’s will. But what makes prayer truly effective?
THE POWER OF FAITH-FILLED PRAYER
Pastor Chris said, “Prayer is God’s idea, not men. God requires us to pray because He intends to answer.” This highlights that prayer is a divine strategy, not merely a human practice. At the heart of effective prayer lies faith. Hebrews 11:6 (NIV) reminds us, “Without faith, it is impossible to please God,”. When we approach God with unwavering trust, we activate divine principles that yield results beyond natural comprehension. Prayer aligned with faith ignites God’s power, transforming impossible situations into testimonies of His greatness.
PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT: A HIGHER DIMENSION
One of the most profound teachings by Pastor Chris on prayer is the importance of praying in the Spirit. He states, “When you pray in the Spirit, you are speaking mysteries to God, bypassing the limitations of your mind and speaking directly from your spirit.” This aligns with 1 Corinthians 14:2(NIV), which says, “For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit.”
Praying in the Spirit allows believers to pray beyond human understanding, addressing things unknown to the natural mind. It builds the spirit, strengthens faith, and aligns the believer with God’s perfect will. Jude 1:20(NIV) reinforces this, urging believers to “build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit.”
PERSISTENCE IN PRAYER
Jesus taught persistence in prayer, as seen in Luke 18:1-8, and Pastor Chris echoes this by saying, “Prayer is a continuous engagement with God. Stay in the place of prayer until you see the change.” This persistent approach ensures that we remain aligned with God’s timing and purpose; confident that every sincere prayer is heard and will be answered.
Prayer is a supernatural force that empowers believers to shape the course of their lives and the world around them.

The grand finale of the October Live Healing Services was an electrifying and faith-filled gathering, that brought together everyone worldwide for a time of miracles, healing, and special blessings. Hosted with great anticipation, the event highlighted the ministry's unwavering commitment to extending healing to the nations; all thanks to the visionary leadership and love of the man of God, Pastor Chris.
The grand finale of the 12th edition live Healing Service began with an opening ministration from the Loveworld Singers, setting the stage for the Healing School Director, Pastor Deola Philips, who welcomed all participants worldwide, thanking them for staying with us through the course of the events. Leading the opening prayer, she asked all to stand in thanksgiving to God for the incredible testimonies received and prayed fervently for all the sick, declaring, “This would be their day of change.” She encouraged participants to remain unwavering in their faith, saying, “As the Man of God ministers to you, believe and act accordingly. Take advantage, give your focus, and the same atmosphere will be with you where you are.” Citing Isaiah 60:1 and Psalms 147:15, she reminded all to arise and shine as the glory of God has risen upon them.
The Loveworld Singers in their awesome ministration set the atmosphere ablaze with an inspiring time of praise and worship, preparing hearts for the service. In a lively talk show hosted by Pastor Deola Philips featuring notable ministers—Rev. Ray Okocha, Rev. Tom Amenkhienan, and Pastor Johan De Beer—each shared impactful insights and testimonies. Beginning with Pastor Johan De Beer, who expressed deep gratitude to Pastor Chris for answering God’s call to minister healing to the nations. Recounting inspiring moments from Pastor Benny Hinn’s teachings, he was excited to share highlighted parts, saying, “Jesus is the cosmic glue that holds all things; that’s why Mary didn’t hold the baby, the Baby held her, the water didn’t hold Jesus, Jesus held the water, and the grave couldn’t hold him, He held the grave. Hallelujah!” In conclusion, he shared amazing testimonies from across the globe. Rev. Ray Okocha introduced the November edition of the Healing to the Nations magazine as a ministry extension and a vessel of healing, sharing testimonies that reinforced the magazine’s role in spreading the healing power of God. Rev. Tom Amenkhienan emphasized the importance of sharing testimonies, stating, “Testimonies are evidence that Jesus is alive today. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” He introduced the Festival of Miracles, a two-week event from October 28 to November 10, 2024. It’s a live program where participants who received healing or miracles during the live healing services share their testimonies. He also advised everyone to be wise and partner with the Healing School in spreading healing as he shared inspiring testimonies. Pastor Deola Philips shared two amazing testimonies as she rounded up the talk show segment, setting the stage for a session prayer.
The prayer segment for children worldwide who are battling sickness and diseases was led by Rev. Ray Okocha. Reading from John 4:48-50, he declared that “God's miraculous power will reach and be bestowed upon them during this service, driving out all infirmities and evil powers.” He also asked all to pray for their parents and guardians that “they will be drawn to the Lord and will have their faith ignited to receive their children’s healing and miracles.”
Evangelist. Dr.Eddy Owase mounted the stage for the testimony segment. In his speech, he encouraged all, saying, “God has you in mind and will come to you wherever you are as long as you are tuned in.” In the mood of stirring up faith, he welcomed on stage a testifier from Scotland—a 68-year-old woman, Rose Smith, who suffered from chronic arthritis for many years. Upon registering and participating in the previous live healing services, Pastor Chris laid his hands upon her, and she immediately got out of her wheelchair and became whole again. Another testifier, Fariba Badan Firouz from Iran, came on stage to share her amazing testimony. She suffered from endometriosis for 10 years and almost lost hope as the pain grew worse by the day. At the brink of it all, she heard about the Healing Streams and participated. Connecting her faith, Pastor Chris prayed for her virtually, and she was completely healed. These testifiers, alongside many others who shared their stories, inspired billions around the world, boosting faith as they opened their hearts in readiness to receive.
Pastor Chris and Pastor Benny Hinn took over the arena; the crowd cheered with joy, with their hearts filled with faith and expectancy. Many who arrived in wheelchairs and stretchers were miraculously healed, walking out whole and healthy. The healing power of God was extended to all virtual participants, resulting in testimonies coming from all corners of the world. It didn’t stop there, as Pastor Chris shared how Jesus called him personally to bring healing to the nations, creating a powerful moment as he declared, “When I say I bring healing to you, I bring it because I was sent to do it.” The children weren’t left out, as prayers of healing and restoration were declared to them, affirming that the healing would remain with them.
Pastor Chris shared with us words from the scriptures. Beginning with 1 Corinthians 1:9, he said, “This verse, as simple as it sounds, is one of the most significant verses in all of the scriptures. It is the summary of all of God's purposes for us. It defines what we have that is called Christianity.” He also explained what Christianity means and what God has called us for, saying, “Authentic Christianity has to be defined through the Word. Real Christianity is acting and doing the Word of God. God is faithful, which means He can be trusted. God called you to become associates, partakers, and sharers with His Son. He called you into union, friendship, oneness with His Son.”
Diving deep, Pastor Chris explained, “Who is this Son?” Saying, “If you were told by a King that you and his son/heir are now partners, and that everything that belongs to his son now belongs to you… you would like to know who that son is and what that son has.” Using 1 John 1:3 and 2 Peter 1:3-4 to reference his teaching, he said, “Everything you require to live a wonderful, successful, and glorious life, He has given you. You discover this through the knowledge of God. Knowing Him helps you discover all He has given you in Christ. Your calling is for glory and excellence. This should be your life every day; glory and excellence independent of circumstances.” He went further to speak about salvation, saying, “The devil doesn't like us talking like this. We are indestructible. We received eternal life when we received Christ. Christ in you, the hope of Glory. How can we have eternal life and live like people that don't? Anyone who believes in Jesus should not perish! We are separated from people who should perish. That is the decree upon our lives. This is why we declare the truth everywhere. We are living for His glory.” Declaring, “I'm living the life of Christ and in the love of Christ the best it can be lived on this earth. We are members of His body. I know who I am. Ephesians 5:30.”
Billions around the world were inspired by this teaching, having their hearts filled with the desire to live the life of Christ, both those who haven’t given their lives to Christ and those who want to realign their faith in Him, responded to the call of salvation and accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
As the service drew to a close, Pastor Chris encouraged everyone to share their testimonies, saying, “I’m not asking you to give your testimony because we need more stories; I’m asking you to give it because your testimony is your first way of giving glory to God for your miracle and also keeping your healing.” The ministers prayed for nations worldwide, asking for God’s peace to reign. In unison, Pastor Benny Hinn and Pastor Chris prayed for families globally, ushering in a powerful sense of unity and faith, and families were touched.
The grand finale of the Live Healing Services was a wonderful time of divine encounters, blessings, and testimonies, leaving participants renewed in faith and gratitude. This extraordinary time of healing left an unforgettable experience in the minds of participants worldwide and a resounding testament to God’s power at work through the Healing School.

Ray Okocha echoed this sentiment, emphasizing that language posed no barrier to receiving, thanks to the translators dedicated to translating the live service to all. Pastor Johan De Beer, referencing Rev. Tom, described Day 1 as a manifestation of God’s love and reinforced Pastor Chris’ teaching on salvation as the channel for divine blessings, saying Day 2 is going to be much better, declaring, "It’s your day, get ready!"
Pastor Deola Philips highlighted additional testimonies from the previous service, paving the way for Rev. Ray Okocha to lead a session of prayer. Using Jeremiah 29:11 and Proverbs 23:18, he prayed for the sick and those who are expectant, declaring total healing and restoration for them as they connect in faith and anticipation. "For anyone in need of a miracle, we pray that their heart and mind are rightly positioned to receive their healing from God, their expectations will be fulfilled, and none will leave the same way they arrived. Every desire will come to fulfillment and every prayer will be answered in the name of Jesus."
Evang. Dr. Eddy Owase mounted the stage to lead the live testimony segment ‘I’m Alive’. He emphasized the significance of sharing one’s testimony, encouraging all to listen attentively to the testimonies shared and open their hearts to receive as they anticipate their miracles. He welcomed on stage a testifier from Nicaragua, Leopoldo Somarriba, who testified on how he was raised from the dead. He had died suffering from a heart attack. Immediately, the Holy Spirit ministered to his daughter, Cynthia, who took a recorded video she had of Pastor Chris performing miracles. Synchronizing her faith, her father, who was declared dead, came back to life. Another testifier was welcomed on stage from China. A 59-year-old, Han Wei, suffered a severe spinal injury she got from an accident. She suffered for 20 years and this suffering came to an end when she participated in the previous healing service. Pastor Chris prayed for her on the large screen, and immediately, the hand of God came on her and she received her healing. Glory!
These testimonies and many others from beneficiaries from all over the world increased the faith of millions believing God for healing. The LoveWorld Singers then lifted the atmosphere even higher, paving the way for the moment everyone had been waiting for.
Pastor Chris and Pastor Benny Hinn united in a session of extraordinary miracles, with unprecedented manifestation of the Holy Ghost, they both ministered healing to the sick and hurting. No devil could stand this, cancers and tumors dematerialized, blind eyes were opened, deaf ears could hear and even the lame got up and walked. Miracles unfolded across the auditorium, and online attendees weren’t left out, as the Men of God spoke words of healing to them across the globe.
Testimonies arouse from all corners of the world, giving thanks to the glory of God for putting an end to their sufferings. A 61-year-old Blanca from the Philippines suffered from blindness in the left eye. While Pastor Chris and Pastor Benny Hinn were ministering, she fell under the anointing, and when she got up, she discovered she could see with her left eye very clearly. Another testimony was that of 30-year-old Huma from Pakistan who suffered from a mental disorder, with memory loss, chronic headache, and insomnia. He said, “During the live Healing Service, when Pastor Chris and Pastor Benny Hinn were praying, I felt the power of God come upon me, and I started crying from the relief. I felt so light, and the constant pain and headache left me in an instant. I’m so relieved. Glory be to God!” It didn’t stop there as Belling from Canada suffered from COVID-19 vaccine complications. She took the vaccine and developed diarrhea; her body couldn’t keep anything she ate. Upon hearing the prayer from Pastor Chris and Pastor Benny Hinn in the live Healing Service, the power of God hit her, and she felt a warm sensation all over her body. Now the pain is gone, and the diarrhea has ceased.
These testimonies, along with many others, symbolize the importance of faith. You don’t have to be present; you don’t have to understand English. All you need is to have faith, and you’ll be the next testifier.
Pastor Benny Hinn gave us an inspiring message on “Who Jesus Is,” beginning with Hebrews 1:1, where he said, ‘Jesus is God’s final Word’. He passionately urged Christians not to give up on their faith in God as God still speaks. He spoke in times past through the prophets; now He speaks through His son Jesus Christ. He went further to say, “True Christianity is not about Jesus but True Christianity is Jesus Christ”. Pastor Benny went on to outline 7 amazing facts that prove Jesus is the Son of God:
He is the Heir of all things; all things in Earth and in Heaven, under the sea and on land, all things belong to him – Hebrews 1:2.
Jesus is the one who directs all creation – Hebrews 1:2.
Jesus is bright in God’s Glory – Hebrews 1:3.
Jesus is the expression of God’s image in His glory – Hebrews 1:3.
Jesus upholds all things by the word of His power. He went further to say, “Jesus is the Cosmic Glue that holds the universe together. That’s why He walked on water because He held the water. Mary didn’t hold Him; He held Mary. The cross didn’t hold Him; He held the cross. The grave couldn’t hold Him; He held the grave and He holds all things” – Hebrews 1:3.
Jesus purged our sins: Jesus cleansed us of our iniquities, paying the debts we couldn’t pay – Hebrews 1:3.
Jesus sits on the right hand of God on high – Hebrews 1:3.
He didn’t stop there as he told us why all glory belongs to God, giving us 5 detailed divine attributes only God possesses—omnipotent (Ephesians 1:20-23), omniscience (Colossians 2:3), omnipresence (Ephesians 1:23), eternality (Micah 5:2), and unchangeability (Hebrews 13:8)—urging ministers of God and everyone to preach this message across the world and silence the enemy.
In conclusion of the service, Pastor Chris led the congregation in a prayer of salvation, highlighting the importance of offering and the value of salvation. He left everyone expectant for the grand finale, inspiring faith and a readiness to experience even a greater move of God’s power. Glory!

Pastor Chris then gave an inspiring message on the “Heavenly Kingdom of Jesus Christ,” saying, “One of the charges for which Jesus was condemned was because He declared himself to be a King. When Pilate asked Him if He was a king, Jesus answered in the affirmative and said He is King and His Kingdom was not of this world.” He also emphasized the mission our Savior, Jesus Christ, saying, “Jesus had a mission, and His mission was to extend the influence and power of His Kingdom to this world. He wanted to bring the blessings and goodness of His Kingdom to this world. He came to extend the benefits of His Kingdom to humanity through Salvation.”
Pastor Chris delved deeper into his message by explaining, “What is Salvation? What does it mean to be saved?” He said, “Salvation is to deliver, make whole (complete), and preserve.” He urged everyone to accept Jesus, saying, “That life that He had is what He gives to you.
