The world will once again witness a sacred gathering of appreciation, gratitude, thanksgiving, and unrestrained praise to God for the immeasurable grace bestowed upon every living soul. In a positive atmosphere of worship and praise, reflecting on God’s mighty works, deliverance, and undeniable breakthroughs throughout the 8,760 hours of the year 2025 Celestial Church of Christ New Etete Parish, Benin City, Edo State will observe its annual Cross Over Service in strict adherence to the doctrinal practices of the Church.
The spiritually significant service is scheduled to hold on Tuesday, 31st December 2025, commencing at 10:00pm, at the Church auditorium located at No. 3 Powerline Street, opposite PHCN Transmission, New Etete Quarters, off Sapele Road, Benin City, Edo State.
Declaring the prophetic mandate for the night, the Parish Shepherd, Venerable Superior Evangelist Emmanuel Otus Oviawe, emphasized that no believer should journey into a new year without a divine proclamation from God.
“Everyone needs a proclamation statement from God to process into the year 2026,” he declared, echoing the Scripture that says, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4).
According to him, the Cross Over Service is not merely a transition of time but a spiritual gateway into destiny fulfillment, the Shepherd declared.
V/S/E Oviawe further revealed that God has promised to strengthen His Kingdom and make the year 2026 a season of multiplied blessings, divine direction, and breakthrough ramifications for the faithful who seek His face with thanksgiving and obedience.
Members of the Celestial family and the general public are therefore encouraged to attend, as the service promises a powerful moment of prophetic declarations, intense praise, fervent prayers, and divine encounters ushering worshippers triumphantly into the new year.
