Delivering a message titled “The Ingredients of a Blessed Person,” Mama Africa left the congregation captivated as she dissected the true nature of divine blessing, offering profound biblical wisdom and practical guidance that resonated deeply with worshippers.
According to Dr. Adayilo, blessings are not merely material acquisitions, but divine garments bestowed upon man by God. “The qualities of a blessed man,” she emphasized, “begin with the understanding that once a man is blessed, curses become irrelevant—curse is always a latecomer.”
She further admonished the church to surrender completely to God, allowing Him to take full control of their lives. “Let God be the driver of your life,” she declared, “make Him your first choice always. Every man carries within him a great potential, and only when God leads can that potential fully manifest.”
In one of the most striking moments of the sermon, she encouraged those who may be facing societal rejection not to despair. “Rejection doesn’t mean you’re cursed,” Mama Africa preached. “It’s a sign of greatness, especially when you put God first.”
The message climaxed with a heartfelt charge to take God seriously. “The way you take God,” she concluded, “is the same way He will take you.” The power-packed service ended on a high note, with members testifying that the ongoing series on Blessing has been life-changing and transformational.
Under the exceptional leadership of Dr. Mrs. Grace Adayilo, ASCCM continues to stand out as a citadel of worship and discipleship where the undiluted word of God is the foundation of every gathering. With a dynamic worship culture rooted in scriptural teaching, ASCCM is fast becoming a spiritual lighthouse in the nation’s capital and beyond.
