But for the Church of Jesus Christ, it's a time of joy and not of pain! The Lord Jesus had already told us about these last days, that there would be distress of nations (Luke 21:25) yet he said to us “Cheer up! I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). With these opening thoughts, the Man of God, Pastor Chris, took the stage at exactly 11.29pm CAT on New Year's Eve to bless the peoples and nations of the world with God's prophetic message for the year 2009.
All over Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas, people gathered, to hear God's Word, receive direction for the new year and be properly positioned for a victorious 2009.

“We can't begin the year without God's prophetic word to us as to what the year holds; now that the man of God has pronounced it, we know that 2009 for us in Iceland is our year to increase and expand on every side. We will experience the sevenfold increase in every aspect of our lives,” declared a participant from Iceland.
The service was aired live on major satellites across the globe: Panamas 10, Panamas Southern Africa, Hot bird, Euro bird, Intelsat America, Intelsat 703, Intelsat 901, Pas 10 and so many others. Many in the United Kingdom and some parts of Europe viewed the service on BSKYB Channel 786. Across Sub Saharan Africa, live signals of the service were received via LoveWorld Christian Network (LCN). Television authorities in many nations considered the service “a must-air,” thus bringing about full live television coverage across the globe
