The 2024 edition of the International Teens Conference organized by the Omega Fire Ministries (OFM) worldwide, witnessed a remarkable dimension.

Besides the usual attraction of Biblical teaching, worship, and the discipleship with youth mentors, the compelling sermon delivered with powerful illustrations by young Divine Johnson Suleman, would continue to resonate with teenagers and Gospel teachers who graced the two-day conference that held at the OFM headquarters, Auchi, Edo State, Nigeria, between the 19th and 20th of August, 2024.

Witnesses say the young lady, who has been participating and giving sermons at the annual conference since inception, made a manifest difference with this year’s programme with a sermon that is most critical to spiritual formation.

Her focus was ‘Holy Spirit’. Divine Suleman affirms in her teaching that, through the power of the Holy Spirit, believers are saved, filled, sealed, and sanctified. “The Holy Spirit does not strike you to kill,” she lectures, “but strikes to teach and guide us into the truth. He helps us in our weakness and intercedes for us.”

She teaches;

“Let me share something with you. One day I wasn’t feeling too well. And I was crying because I realized that, this world we live in, the Holy Ghost is not talked about and is neglected. We don’t talk about Him. This is the trick of the enemy. The Holy Spirit is powerful. Think about when the Holy Spirit came to rest on Jesus in the form

of a dove and we think that the Holy Spirit is a dove. The Holy Spirit is fire; He cannot be encapsulated and He cannot be defined in one sentence.”

“I want us to understand that the Holy Spirit is very important and very powerful. The Holy Spirit should be our friend; He is indeed your friend because He is not the thunder that when you did something wrong He would just come and strike you dead. No. Do you know that when you’re praying whether in your room or in any other place, the Holy Spirit doesn’t want you to finish and leave? This is because He loves you, He desires you.

He desires a relationship with you. I listen to the Holy Spirit because I’m a vessel. That’s what I am. I say it all the time that if you want to look at me or you want to look at one thing in my hair or any other place in me, what you see is the Holy Spirit. That is what my body represents. Do not be distracted. Do not allow yourself to be used by the enemy.”

Divine Suleman’s lecture suggests a power that encourages believers, especially the teens, to develop a strength that helps them to know Christ and understand that knowing Him from teenage is a lifestyle, making them His image-bearers.

The second child of the General Overseer of OFM, Apostle Johnson Suleman, and a member of OFM’s ‘The Triumphant Sisters’ gospel music band, Divine Suleman’s lecture at the conference apparently captured the hearts of many with her electrifying yet calm voice which participants say was soothing and therapeutic to souls. Her confident display of spiritual command, which showcases the depth of her anointing, her words infused with divine power, spoke to the deepest spiritual desires of the teens and others present.

Rounding up, Divine delivered some powerful prayer points, infusing the grace that guarantees an inspiring direction and strategy to achieving life’s objectives. “My Heavenly Father, I am at the end of myself. No man can do these things except God be with him.

I cannot do anything unless I abide with you. Holy Spirit, let me come into partnership with you; let everything about my humanity be with you and let everything about your divinity be with me. I have zero faith in myself and my capability. I believe completely in you and your ability. Amen.”
