The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries has given out free 50 tricycles and 30 sewing machines to some members of the church and non-members as economic empowerment. This empowerment will help beneficiaries to fend for themselves, families and come out of poverty.

The church also gave out 1000 bags of rice, 2000 copies of the Holy Bibles to members and non-members that worshipped at the Church during the Easter retreat programme held at the church’s headquarters in Ijesha, Lagos. Apart from the items, the Church also fed the worshipers and those around with cooked rice.

The Founder/General Overseer, Pastor Lazarus Muoka, who personally handed the items to the beneficiaries said, he was “led by the Spirit of God to do so, at this time of the nation, when the economy is down and many people are unemployed and without means of livelihood and the gesture will be a continuous exercise”.

Earlier in his sermon titled: “God’s Covenant Of Peace And Blessings” he urged members to enter into a covenant with God, who has a solution to all human needs. He further said that the Lord is always with those who have made up their minds to turn away from all evil, and to maintain righteousness”.

According to him, “Despite the tricycle, sewing machines, food, rice, Bibles and others that we are sharing, what matters most is having the spirit of God and maintaining righteousness. If God be for you, you don’t need to struggle for anything.

“Naturally, heaven will supply all your needs and supplies from above can never finish. If you have the spirit of God, you can give life, money and other items; you can command money to come your way and without doubt it will happen. What matters is the spiritual things, and the assurance I am giving you is that you are going home with spiritual blessings. From now, you shall be a blessing to your family, a blessing to your communities, a blessing to the world and to yourself. Everything about you shall turn around for good and as you open your mouth to speak heaven will give you attention.

“But after now, you will know that God is in the midst of The Chosen people. I don’t know those who are mocking you, they will look at you with respect because God will take away the reproach and whatsoever is causing problems in your life. I am assuring you, God is here. The Lord’s Chosen is a different place of worship. Do I need to tell you that God is here? I don’t need to say it because you can see how God has demonstrated His powers and given sight to the blind, made the lame walk, dumb to speak and other impossible things”.
