AND THE LORD REVERSED IT

This was the "divine reversal" Sunday, held on the last day of November and the last Sunday of the month, one day before the 1st of December new month prayers. Every service opened in worship and a long prayer surge against "evil carryover": whatever followed a life from January to November must not cross into December. The day's cry, repeated in every service, was "Reverse by fire" and "It has been reversed", with the pastor declaring: "You will not end the year the way you are. You will not enter December the way you are."

Pastor Jerry preached four different messages. In the first service (1 Peter 5:8) he taught that the devil only roars as a lion: young lions and nomadic lions without territory do not roar, and a lion's roar is an announcement of territory, not a reaction to a problem. The believer is the real lion and must keep roaring (praying, declaring) so the enemy leaves the territory, instead of going quiet and handing it over. He also taught that "your adversary" is personal (what spares a friend may target you), that the devil seeks "whom", attacking the mind before the things, and that thoughts are answered with spoken words, not with more thoughts. In the second service (Genesis 19:15-28) he preached on Lot's wife: she did not look back while the angel held her hand, but when she could no longer feel the hand she turned. "You were not wired to feel him. You were wired to know him." He also warned against Lot's "little one" mindset (asking for Zoar when God said "the mountain") and against keeping the vulnerable at the gate.

In the third service (1 Chronicles 4:9-10) he taught on Jabez: more honourable than his brethren, yet named "sorrow" because of what happened at his mother's transition. Transition seasons decide outcomes, and he listed seven things to watch in one. Jabez did not ask for a new name; he asked to be blessed indeed, enlarged, held, and kept from evil, so the evidence would outtalk the old name. In the fourth service (Matthew 7:24-27), preached before the dedication of 51 babies, he taught that both men in the parable were builders: every family member must be a builder, not a consumer; seasons will change, so prepare before they do; and "location" (including association and relationships) decides whether you build on rock or sand.

Words of knowledge included a wedding within seven days, a woman whose breast cancer had moved from one breast to the other, swollen legs, and "something big" happening within seven days and "on Monday". Testimonies were the heart of the day: an exam result reversed on appeal, a Zambian coach whose eviction became a house and farm on her own land, a realtor who went from zero sales all year to five in a row, a free council house after 23 years, reversed myocardial ischaemia, a cancer recall that found nothing, a hospital job offered at a book launch, a mother healed of 24 years of arthritis at the Ghana conference, and a secondary-infertility testimony that ended in a safe delivery.

Each service closed with offerings as a thanksgiving wave offering for November, announcements for the 1st of December prayers and the 12th anniversary next Sunday, a welcome for first-timers ("give me three months of your time"), and Psalm 91:1-2 declared together. The fourth service ended with the dedication of 51 babies, four marriage thanksgivings, and the blessing of 13 businesses, 21 cars and 20 properties.

Testimonies played / recapped

Service 1

• Evelyn (from Mozambique, lives in Italy): one of ten women worldwide selected for a professional certification. Failed the theory exam, then failed the paid-for resit by one mark. Applied for revaluation; on 8 July, as the pastor declared "that decision they made, they will reverse it", she received her pass the same day. Second: a family pattern of premature death; she and her brother in Hungary dreamed their mother would die. In prayer God kept saying "El Roi"; in September she found a clip of the pastor declaring against anyone using the younger generation to renew their life. Her mother's symptoms passed and "this pattern has been broken".
• Inonga Imbula (Lusaka, Zambia; speaker, trainer, coach): at the 1 September Jubilee service the pastor said "you do not shine the light with a microphone" and released people into new works; she started farming. Infected cabbage seedlings recovered and sold after "your crops are growing fast" (14 November transplanting, "it will end in praise"). After an accident she moved to the farm; after sowing a "seed of continuation" at the NSPPD Zambia conference, the previous owners ordered her off within four days, settled at two months (deadline 13 June). Her city tenant then gave notice, and on the word "you are not going back where you are coming from" she built a house, piggery and office on her own land within two months. On 12 June her phone surfaced a 2022 photo of her laying five blocks there and praying to build. After "release your company name" (23 September) she was called within two hours to train Nigerian House of Representatives officials in Uganda, which led to speaking at conferences in Abuja. She asked for Streams of Joy Lusaka.
• Bright (realtor and sales manager, Abuja; caption "Brighty Fana"): no sale from January to November 2025, threatened with termination or a 50% pay cut, and tempted to seek "spiritual power". After the "God suddenly reversed it" Sunday two weeks earlier, a client paid a seven-figure sum the next day; his brother in Malaysia wired money for land without inspection; five sales in a row. Also a dream of Pastor Jerry raising a dead man, since which his prayer life is "a burning fire".

Service 2

• Woman from Dublin, Ireland (name not clear): applied for a council house 23 years ago and forgot it. In March the altar word was "grace to own land and a house without sweat"; on 28 October the council called and gave her a two-bedroom house for free. Also healed of tooth pain after gargling with communion.
• Jane: after losing a brother, diagnosed with a thyroid disorder (caption "hyperterrorism", also "hypothyroidism"). Held on to an August testimony, stopped the drugs, and has been one year drug-free with normal results. Her sister in Lagos was diagnosed with myocardial ischaemia after a stress ECG; Jane brought the printed result to the altar on 8 October, the pastor declared "ischaemia be reversed" on 9 October, and the new result on 18 November was "all okay". Another sister had a successful surgery, and her fridge works again.
• Woman from London (caption "Lind Dan"): followed an instruction to go on the floor and declare on landing in Owerri; a day earlier she and her brother survived a car accident. Started a law degree at 50; breast cancer in 2023 (right breast). A 2025 mammogram recalled her for the left breast; she danced 20 minutes a day with a seed, and every scan found nothing. In October her old surgery site opened and a metal object left since 2023 came out after the "shake it out" declaration. Graduated from City University of London with a 2:1 at 53, one paper near 90%.
• Eve (Abuja): graduated 2023, finished youth service October 2024, rejected and even scammed while job hunting. Joined the church in October when the pastor said "give us three months". At a book launch she pledged 10,000 naira while introducing herself as unemployed; the MD of a hospital that had turned her down in July was present and offered her a job. She is now its billing officer. "My name is Eve and I'm employed."
• Patience (Ghanaian nurse, London): her daughter, born after long waiting, was diagnosed with dyslexia yet finished a master's after they wrote a date (6 July). Paralysed on one side in 2012 with a trapped nerve (lumbar spondylosis, caption "spongilitis"); a Ghana specialist found nothing and told her never to accept surgery. Diabetic since 2012, she collapsed in January, drifted in and out of coma for nearly two weeks with "Oh Lord, show me mercy" playing, with critically low potassium; repeated tests since show no diabetes and she stopped medication. She turned 70 the day before.

Service 4

• Kichi (Ottawa, Canada): laid off on 22 January during the new year fast. Wrote 21 October as her date; nothing came, but counting 42 weeks from the layoff gave 12 November. Her sister booked her flight to Nigeria for their mother's 60th. She missed the 28 October word ("when it comes to your turn they will pick somebody else, it ends now") by sleeping, and a friend sent the clip. One offer came in early November; on 13 November a US company that rejected her in March approved her offer within an hour. Remote work, and a salary that would have taken ten years to reach: "restoration, compensation and jara".
• Uko (Lagos, first time in person): ovarian cyst and fibroid on a scan; on 23 October the NSPPD word was "ovarian cyst, fibroid, endometriosis be reversed", and her symptoms went. Also received a job offer on 21 November, "bigger than you prayed for", and a fully funded training programme.
• Pauline (protocol department): her mother, who had arthritis for 24 years and could not raise an operated arm, was healed at the NSPPD Ghana conference; she saw her on the big screen testifying and climbing stairs, and she has been well for 30 days. Second: restless all night, she prayed at 4 a.m. against any plan of the enemy. That day her brother's car was attacked by two men on a bike; a stone smashed through the windscreen onto his chest and the car ended in a gutter, but all survived, on her niece's second birthday.
• Woman with secondary infertility (possibly Rebecca): two daughters, then years without conception, and a harmful drink from a prayer woman that left her and her husband in hospital. Her sister conceived two months after joining the altar; at the crossover night the pastor declared conception for January and she was pregnant by mid-January. She sowed a monthly seed for safe delivery. Due for induction on a Monday, she attended all four Sunday services, heard "you are birthing it today", went into labour after church and delivered; a growth on the baby's head flattened, and severe bleeding stopped as nurses applied communion and NSPPD prayers played.

Words of knowledge / healing declarations

• A wedding happening within seven days, "it will shock you".
• A woman whose breast was removed for cancer and whose cancer moved to the other breast: "this time the devil lost the battle".
• A small matter the devil is amplifying to bring shame: "no amplification of evil".
• Legs getting swollen; a blocked "pancreatic" condition (caption unclear); "brain and new receiver" (unclear).
• "Watch out for what will happen on Monday"; "in seven days something big will still happen".
• A crown of thorns placed where a golden crown belongs: "Who is sitting on your seat? Get up and get out."
• Service 2: "This service will provoke mind-blowing testimony in less than 48 hours."
• At the dedication: no autism, no Down syndrome, no developmental delay, no hole in the heart on any child; for those wanting babies, cars or property, "receive your own".

Declarations into the week

Worship leaders led Monday to Saturday declarations in every service, among them: Monday, all doors open and "I began December with come-and-see and 24-hour miracles"; Tuesday, winds of divine reversal and "any open grave with my name, swallow your diggers"; Wednesday, "the Lord reversed every verdict of death" and "I will not walk against myself"; Thursday, "I am not John the Baptist, you cannot have my head"; Friday, "stop, evil wind of obituary" and "I am not Naomi"; Saturday, "2025, my wine did not finish, I finished well and I finished strong". The El Roi confession ("Heaven and earth, my case is different, I have seen the God that sees me") closed each round.

Dedications and thanksgivings (service 4)

• 51 babies dedicated (including two sets of twins), four marriage thanksgivings, 13 businesses, 21 cars and 20 properties blessed.
• Over the parents: "you will never lack resources to raise these children", and from now until the first quarter of next year "whatever you are doing is multiplied tenfold".

---

1. God is in the business of reversing things. The ultimate reversal happened at the cross ("It is finished"), so many answers are already paid for; like a gift card, the believer's part is to present it and take delivery, not to plead poverty in the supermarket of destiny.
2. The devil only roars as a lion over territory he does not own. The believer is the real lion; a lion's roar is an announcement, not a reaction. If you go silent, you surrender your territory, whether health, job, finances or children.
3. The adversary is personal and seeks "whom" before "what": he goes for your mind and home before your money. Sobriety and vigilance live in the mind; answer thoughts with words.
4. You were not wired to feel God, you were wired to know him. Lot's wife turned when she could no longer feel the hand; your most powerful prayers are the ones you pray when you feel nothing.
5. Do not negotiate for the "little one" when God says "the mountain". A "little one" mindset limits favour, capacity and boldness; your scars on the mountain are proof of the journey with God. Do not look back, or you become the salt that seasons someone else's soup.
6. Much that goes right or wrong is decided in transition seasons. Pray, discern, know what the new season looks like, get the right midwife, gather strength to push, watch for new-season killers, and keep the right atmosphere. Nobody may name you by a past mistake.
7. Like Jabez, ask to be blessed indeed, enlarged, held by God's hand and kept from evil. Being blessed means being envied, so keep God's hand on you, correcting you. Your evidence will answer those who still use your old name.
8. Everyone in a family is a builder, not a consumer. Build your spouse, your children (discipline, prayer, responsibility), your workplace and your church; prepare before the season changes, because a building that stands has not necessarily been built on the right foundation.
9. "Location" includes association. How long you have known someone is not a reason to carry them into your next season; leave sand relationships for rock. Every sand can become rock when it is pulled together, so pull your mind, skills and passion together and build what lasts.
