Meanwhile in the course of the second phase of this tenure precisely on the 17th day of November 2013 prayer force  department had their day with the theme:
BURDEN FOR SOULS (DEPOPULATING THE KINGDOM OF HELL)
BURDEN FOR SOULS (DEPOPULATING THE KINGDOM OF HELL)
A man wakes up in the morning after sleeping on an advertised bed in advertised pyjamas. He brushes with an advertised toothpaste, washes with an advertised soap, and shaves with an advertised razor or powder. He prays with an advertised holy book, has breakfast with an advertised orange juice, cereal and toast. Sips his advertised coffee, puts on advertised clothes, shoes and glances at his advertised wristwatch. He rides with an advertised car, bus or train, sits on an advertised desk and writes with an advertised pen on an advertised pad. Yet this man hesitates to advertise saying that advertising does not pay. But when his advertised business goes down, he advertises for sale.
Dear believers, when last did you advertise JESUS?
THE TONGUE: A WEAPON AND A TOOL
Many times, a seed of discord grows between friends and loved ones, not because it is the devil that does it, but because the tongue is not effectively used to avoid that seed of discord. Sometimes, people walk up to you and let you know things that seem very stupid and irrelevant, the answer should not be in letting a person know how stupid or irrelevant what he/she has said to you is and make the person feel worse, but the answers
should be concerned and even making the person feel right to what he or she has said to you. By so doing, the person gladly listens because to him, that correction is coming from somebody that loves him/her dearly and he will make amends.
On the other hand, if you make the person feel stupid, you only stir up wrath and anger in the mind of that person and like it or not, the seed of discord has been sown. The bible even concurs to this while its expressly stated ‟A soft answer turns away wrath, but grievous words stir up anger.”(Pro 15:1)
Furthermore, it is pertinent to note that the tongue can be used to drive people away from us because, they wouldn’t want to be injured by the sharp edges of the word that coma out of it and by so doing, it has been used as a tool to plant the seed of discord.
In conclusion, it could also be used as a weapon to drive wrath away by bringing people close to you because they want to nourish by soft answers and by so doing, the tongue is used for promoting unity and uprooting the seed of discord.
Ask yourself what weapon or tool your tongue stands for?

THIS IS IT
Burden for soul, depopulating the

kingdom of hell. This may sound strange to you, but you need to consider yourself and ask yourself these questions; what will be of me on that day? What must I do to be saved? According to Nicodemus in John 3, what are the criteria of heaven? How can I become a born again? These are the questions that need to be asked.
After being saved, we are made to understand that we were ‟saved to serve”. Today Christians are not interested in winning souls for Gods kingdom, pro 11:30 will say that as Christians we are, we should be worried and burdened about dying souls. Jesus while preaching to the people noticed that the harvest is large but the labourers are few (matt 9:37).
As believers, we are expected to go out and win souls, depopulate the kingdom of hell. We should not allow lost souls to perish; rather, they should be a savior. Haggai 1:7 says ‟Consider your ways”.  May his holy fire for souls, the kingdom and compassion fall on you afresh today for ‟the business requires haste”  therefore make haste while the sun shines.

BURDEN FOR SOULS: DEPOPULATING THE KINGDOM OF HELL (Matt 9: 35-38)
As Christians, we are servants of God and our mission on earth is to win souls for Christ (burden for souls). How can this be achieved, if our life style do not reflect God in us? If your life is not seen as an example of Christ, how can you fulfill your mission? Funny enough, most people do not know their mission.
If we say we love God (matt 22:27). We also ought to love our neighbors so well that when we see them going astray, it is our duty to be burdened in our heart for that soul not to perish (Romans 10:1).  By letting the person know that Christ lives. What is the word and how can it have a greater positive impact in our lives. (Romans 10:8-11)
The devil is very jobless (Job 2:2). His work is to steal, kill and destroy. As Christians God knows we are not perfect but the only way for us to stand firm is to constantly study the word of God. (Josh 1: 8) because it builds us thereby building a closer relationship with God.
Our world of today is full of different tricks and most Christians compromise with the world. The Lord is saying, deviate from your evil ways and what will lead to sin (Prov 23:14, 27:17). This will help you to be on a safe side with God and the assurance of heaven at last.

PRAYER DAY SERMON
THEME: BURDEN OF SOULS [DEPOPULATING THE KINGDOM OF HELL]
TEXT:    MATT 9:35-38, PROV.11:30, ROMANS 10:1
M/V:     JUDE 1:28

INTRODUCTION-
As christens the only assignment that was given to us is to win souls. The scripture emphasis that the main purpose/duty of every believer is to win souls or to spread the gospel of Christ, Rom 1:16 and you must make others to be saved through our salvation. Before we continue we must know the meaning of the term burden of souls what then is BURDEN OF SOUL
WHAT IS THEN BURDEN
Burden is a responsibility or obligation that is resting on somebody to perform a particular duty or task, it can also be a burning desire to carry out a particular or certain function.
WHAT IS SOUL?
As an individual we are made up with three vital elements which are God, the Spirit, and soul. Soul is the most the most important because it is the seat and center of emotions and it is the center of humans personality, it is what makes us who we are.
WHAT IS BURDEN FOR SOUL
Therefore I will say burden for souls is that burning zeal or desire, or interest to rescue them i.e those people who are not saved, from going to the pit of hell. Praise God we now know what the theme is talking about, I will want to talk about the important aspect of “DEPOPULATING THE KINGDOM OF HELL”

2014
OUR YEAR OF SUPERNATURAL WORKS
DEUTERONOMY 3:24

Supernatural Works Deuteronomy 3:24
This year 2014 the Lord has said that its a year of supernatural works, a year in which we shall experience life beyond the natural realms in all facets of our lives. Things that have never happened before in our lives will begin to take place for He is going to do something new in our lives. He will make the impossible possible for us. There will be no limits to what we can accomplish this year, He will uplift us and show forth His greatness in our lives and cause an all round perfection in all that concerns us.
For we are spirit beings and for us to live our lives beyond the natural realms there is need for us to get close to God. Let the spirit of God be in charge in our lives that He may be able to guide and channel the course of our lives in the night direction. For you cannot show forth the result of someone you don’t know, it is only when you know His ways and know more about Him that you can display His results.
We are supernatural beings experiencing supernatural works of God to produce supernatural results, notable manifestation and supernatural power that the world cannot deny.
