The meeting started around 9.45 am with an openig prayer by the State Secretary- Prophet Ojo Dayo Sunday.
This was led by the State Music Director- Pst. Dr.Mrs Funmi Andrews.
The state Chairman- Rev. Samuel Olusanmi took a first step of prophetic prayer and declaration on RMC- from ward level to the national and international level. He went further to emphasize on the mission of RMC- as a body that is made up ministers that are spiritually conscious of whom they were as Ambassadors of Christ ,defenders of faith- RMC is a movement that here to make the difference .He took his messages from Act.6: 3 to emphasize on Honesty,Holy Spirit and Wisdom as prerequisites requirements and what should be seeing in every proclaimed member of-RMC.
He started his welcome adress with word of encouragement and affirmation that every offces occupied by each leader of RMC would be allowed to function and perform unlike some other association having offices or portfolio without any tangible assignment. All our national officers ,and State exco were officially and physically made known as present.He went further to allay the fear of seeing RMC- as a parallel body to PFN or an opposition to any existing Christians organisation, but rather-RMC is a redefined body of Christ having conglomerates of Christians leaders that is all encompassing cutting accross the Charismatic, Evangelical, Apostolic, Pentecostal etc with a better mission of representing Christ in all things as Christ ambassador and defending the faith.He ended his word of assurrance about RMC by informing the house that our National President Bishop Steve Ogedengbe is on his way to be with us in the meeting as soon as possible.
Prayer for RMC vision and mission ,Nigeria as a nation and the Church were differently led by the State Prayer Director- Pst. Babalade,State Vice Chairman- Apst Dr.Covenant Eze- and Asst.State Dir.of Training & Education- Dr.Bolarinwa Omotosho.
This was by our National President- Bishop Steve Ogedengbe. He took his messages from Prov.13: 20. He that work with the wise shall be wise,but a companion of fool shall be destroyed. Wise men was pratically used to butress his point with relationship between Otedola and Dangote to serve as an evidence of what right and good relationship can bring to anyone in the time of need.He was very blunt in telling us that so many organisation existed without any noticeable support to offer when you are down. RMC is here to make the difference, and that with RMC- he assured us that none of us shall be put to shame and that we shall not be shamed in this journey of our faith as Christ ambassador and defenders of faith. Harvard University was used again as he told us that every product of Harvard University sees one another as one and pursue the interest and good welfare of one and another.RMC – shall operate on one cardinal point of Jesus that says – Love your neighbour as yourself. In RMC – we are all called no one is greater or lesser.You dont beg to be noted .You dont stay where you are tolerated.You are only functioning where you are celebrated. RMC- is a platform where we fight for each other helping and defending each other,and this we shall do that everybody will be envious The National President went further, by saying beginning with the Inauguration of RMC Lagos State Exco today,we have great good news all around us .One of the ladder of greatness in life is relationship. When grace follow you ,protocol is broken.All exco were congratulated for having the privileges of occupying one position or the other .He ended with a clarity that we shall work together in such a way that when we visit your local government, then you will know what we carry and benefits in Lagos state will also begin to follow every of our commitment as a member of RMC.
The state Chairman gave occasion for questions and answers bothering on what some of us that are executives in other association holding offces that appeared to be similar.Question on RMC probably as a threat to PFN- Our National Secretary and President meticulously in wisdom of Christ says we are all one in Christ, but RMC is a body of Christ consisting of great leaders of new wine in a new bottle.
