Friday, February 27, 2026, marked a remarkable conclusion to the week-long Odo-Owa Annual Revival, as participants witnessed what many described as powerful manifestations of God’s presence at the sacred gathering.
The President of Christ Apostolic Church Nigeria and Overseas, Pastor Samuel Olusegun Oladele, delivered a prophetic message of hope and divine intervention to all attendees. Although unavoidably absent, he was ably represented by the Regional Superintendent of CAC Babajide Region, Pastor S.O. Owolabi.
In his goodwill message, Pastor Oladele extended warm greetings to the Kabiyesis (traditional rulers), ministers, men, women, youths, children, and all participants who gathered at Odo‑owa for the annual spiritual exercise.
Drawing his text from Gospel of Matthew 28:5–6, he likened the encouragement given by the angel to the women who sought Jesus at the tomb to the present experience of revival attendees.
He assured worshippers that just as the risen Christ revealed Himself then, He would also meet everyone seeking Him sincerely at their points of need during the revival.
The CAC President emphasized the temporary nature of earthly pursuits such as wealth, magnificent buildings, and technological advancements, noting that these are subject to change and eventual obsolescence. In contrast, he stressed that seeking Jesus brings enduring testimonies that withstand the test of time.
Pastor Oladele further reaffirmed that all authority in heaven and on earth belongs to Jesus Christ, declaring that no power of the enemy can overcome believers who stand firmly in Him.
He prophetically declared that the challenges and burdens that brought participants to Babalola Mountain would not follow them back home, but would instead be permanently resolved.
He also pronounced blessings upon every minister who had served throughout the revival week, declaring that their lives and ministries would experience divine transformation and pleasant advancement.
The 2026 Odo-Owa Annual Revival concluded on a note of renewed faith, prophetic assurance, and spiritual upliftment for all who attended.
