Good music, good dancing, good preaching, and good prayers! This is how the young people of the First Love Church entered into the new year. It was a taste of the good things that Bishop Dag Heward-Mills has declared for the year 2018.
The hall was bursting at its seams, as thousands of young people gathered to be led by their prophet a d pastor, into the new year. The atmosphere was charged and electrifying, and had a rippling effect among the large crowd. One gentleman said that although it was his first time at the First Love church, he enjoyed the service because the excitement was so contagious.
Bishop Dag preached about what it means to have good things, and gave examples of some good things. He explained that Christians were to expect good things because Jesus Christ is the heir of good things. Towards the end of his message, he emphasized that the Holy Spirit is the best good thing that a Christian could receive.
After this, it was time for the moment that everyone had been waiting for – the time when Bishop Dag would pray for, and lay his hands on every single person present. People had travelled across the country for this. And why not? Why not enter the new year with a special blessing from the servant of God? Why not receive a prayer that will keep and preserve you for each of the 12 months of the new year? Like someone said, the quality of your life is directly proportional to the quality of hands that are laid on you.
The service at the First Love centre ended on a high note with great music from the singing stars, and vibrant moves from the dancing stars.
