The presence of the Holy Spirit enveloped the congregation as Touched Lives Evangelical Ministry Worldwide held its official inauguration service today, June 28, 2026. Though the ministry was divine-planted on June 1, 2024, behind the Ogbomoso Beulah Baptist Conference College in the Oke-Beulah Area, its formal presentation to the body of Christ was celebrated today. The glorious event took place at the Atileyin Oluwa Cooperatives Hall, directly opposite Zoe College in the Oke-Alapata area of Ogbomoso.

The under-shepherd of the ministry, Rev. Mathew Olalere Oladoke (JP), testified to God’s immeasurable favour and sustaining grace. He emotionally recounted how the Lord led the church through severe wilderness experiences, trials, and tribulations to arrive at this mountain-top celebration.

Delivering the foundational sermon, Rev. Dr. Sunday A. Olojede of Imole Ayo Baptist Church (Iwagba Area, Ogbomoso) spoke on the theme "Title Without Gift," drawing his scriptural text from Ephesians 4:11-13.

Rev. Dr. Olojede extended deep fraternal felicitations to Rev. Oladoke. He reminded him that even when men forget, isolate, or abandon a servant of God, the Jehovah who called him into the vineyard remains ever faithful.

THENEWSCREDIT reports that In a strong admonition to the modern body of Christ, the guest preacher noted:

Many ministers today desperately crave prophetic titles rather than pursuing genuine spiritual gifts.

Ministers must guard their divine mandates and be deeply discerning about whom they share their visions with.

Pastors must watch out for fair-weather people whose ultimate goal is to derail or spy out their liberty in Christ.

Pastors must watch out for fair-weather people whose ultimate goal is to derail or spy out their liberty in Christ.

As a church planter, Rev. Oladoke must never lose focus or abandon the potent messages and deliverance programmes that marked the ministry`s beginning.

The atmosphere shifted into intense spiritual warfare and intercession as Prophetess Esther A. Akinloye of Global Dominion Redemption Ministry (Ede, Osun State) stepped up. She rained down prophetic declarations, unburdened blessings upon the ministry, and consecrated the host pastor with anointing oil for global exploit.
