The kingdom of the devil is presently in disarray and the reason is not far-fetched. Founder of The Cyber Embassy of Christ, Dr Ope Banwo, is organising the highly anticipated online concert called Worship Without Walls.
The man of God, who is a serial digital entrepreneur, said in an interview that the programme was established and inspired by God to challenge the devil at this critical time.
According to him, if the COVID-19 pandemic has shut down churches, it cannot take praise and worship from the children of God.
“The pandemic may have temporarily shut down our places of worship offline, but it cannot take praise and worship from our mouths.
“So, this Worship Without Walls event is more like declaring to the devil that nothing can take the praise from believers who are resolved to worship their God,” Pastor Banwo declared.
Explaining the motivation behind the concert, he said, “The next battleground for souls is on the internet not in church buildings.
“Churches across the world are experiencing a decline in attendance while the internet is exploding with people on Sunday mornings.
“It was a no brainer that instead of whining about people who would rather be browsing online than coming to church, we should be thinking of taking the church to them where they are. It is time to take the whole church online even as we continue to operate physical churches.”
Worship Without Walls, which is making its debut on Saturday, May 31, 2020, is a 12-hour worship session which will feature over 50 gospel artistes across the world.
The programme will air live on http://www.WorshipWithoutWalls.online with leading men of God from over 40 countries participating.
Some of the top artistes performing at the concert include Mike Abdul, Monique, Mike Aremu, Essence, KSB and Righteousman.
Others are Tosin Bee, Folake Umosen, Evang Chucks Praise Channel, A’Dam, Nene Olayide, Bola Udom, Jerry K, Adam, Minister Ighosa,TY Classical, Minister Anny, lIbitayo Jeje, Noble G and Ayo Vincent.
The Worship Without Walls concert has been described as the biggest ever online gospel concert. It is an initiative of The Cyber Embassy of Christ, a 100 percent online church with Netvangelism, e-Ministry, e-fellowship and e-discipleship.
