Worshippers at the Synagogue Church of All Nations on Sunday expressed delight at the restoration of its revival mountain three-day service, years after it was held last.

The worshippers said the power in SCOAN was being renewed for greater exploits.

The mountain service was the first of its kind since the demise of SCOAN founder Prophet Temitope Joshua, popularly known as TB Joshua, three years ago.

It also came months after the controversy raged over the church and the miracles allegedly performed by the late founder during his lifetime.

The Church mountain located at Agodo, Egbe Ikotun in Lagos, was a beehive as worshippers sought solutions to various issues through their prayers.

The service afforded worshippers the opportunity to express themselves before God, and attracted people from across the globe, though meant for the domestic followers.

A worshipper, Emeka Ezedibia, said that God was re-enacting His covenant with the founder in his wife who is the church leader.

Mr Ezedibia said that all the spiritual trappings that attract people to SCOAN resonate in the present leadership.

According to him, the intensive programme that runs through the nights is a harvest of uplift and restored hope of good tidings for individuals and the church.

Also speaking on the revival, Bimbo Ege, said that worshippers got what they seemed to have been lacking since the departure of the founder.

“Supplications to God in a serene, cool, composed, calm atmospheric condition were answered,” she said.

Ms Ege, an 11 years member of SCOAN, said that the spiritual affliction that led her to become a member was healed by the laying of hands on her forehead by TB Joshua.

She noted that God’s presence was felt from the disposition of individual worshippers at the programme.

SCOAN’s leader, Pastor Evelyn Joshua, in her message earlier said, “We are not on this mountain on our own. We are here today and for the three days at God’s command for our revival. Heaven is aware that you are here and because heaven is aware of your presence, your case is settled.”

She said that they were there to fulfil divine directives.
