Prophet T.B. Joshua
Prophet T.B. Joshua announced the theme of his message – A LIFE FULL OF CHOICES and profoundly attested that "One of the greatest gifts God has given to us is the freedom to make a decision". He said, "Those of us who have fallen, made a decision and those who have not fallen, faced similar temptation but made a different decision". He said that we all fight similar battles, just camouflaged differently. The prophet said that the love of God is not religious conduct and behaviour but comes through the intercessory work of His Son, Jesus Christ.

During the Easter Festival, Elder Uzochukwu decided to travel to his home town with his immediate family, having prayed over the jeep with the Anointing Water and placed the Anointing Sticker on the window.

Narrating his experience to the congregation, Elder Uzochukwu said, '' Eight kilometres to Alede, a jeep overtook us and braked suddenly; that action made me crash into the car. When I reversed my car to move on, I had a head-on collision with another car coming towards me and my car entered the bush''. He said that the man he collided with had injuries which signalled the seriousness of the accident.
He acknowledged the power of Jesus Christ through the Anointing Water and Anointing Sticker and gave thanks to God for salvaging him and his family from the accident. He advised the people of the world to put their trust in God because, "God is able to deliver and save in every condition''.

The missing crown created fear because the crown symbolised king's life, supremacy and relevance. Without the crown, he was not considered a true king. The king's council decided to visit The SCOAN where to their surprise, Prophet T.B. Joshua prophesied that the missing crown would be found upon their return to Malawi. After the prophecy, they told the man of God that the crown had been missing for three months. The royal family returned to the palace and to their great surprise, found the crown lying in the lounge, where people passed daily! The king and his people thanked God for all He had done through the prophet.
Concluding the service, Prophet T.B. Joshua said that when discouragement comes, don't stop; dig deep and fight it through. When fear hits, speed up the attack. For everything, there is a purpose as a Christian. There is no condemnation for anyone who believes in Jesus.
