Beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, as the new year 2026 unfolds with fresh grace and divine possibilities, we reflect on the powerful spiritual foundation laid during the Redeemed Christian Church of God’s (RCCG) January Holy Ghost Service held on Friday, January 2, 2026, at the Redemption City, Km 46 Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Ogun State, Nigeria. Led by the revered General Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, this service was a profound encounter with God’s presence, marking the first Holy Ghost rally of the year and setting the tone for spiritual breakthroughs. Themed “A New Beginning,” the event drew thousands physically to the massive auditorium and millions virtually through live streams on Dove TV, YouTube, and social media, allowing global participation in the anointing.
This compilation provides a detailed recap of the service, from the opening prayer that invited heaven’s fire to the closing benedictions that sealed the blessings for the year. Based on the live broadcast, key highlights, and shared excerpts from the official account (@TheHGService), it includes transcripts where available, teachings, declarations, and interactive elements. Notably, the service featured powerful ministrations from multiple ministers, including Pastor Kalu Ndukwe, Pastor Julius Olalekan (also known as Pastor Julius T. Olalekan or Pastor JT), Pastor Joseph Adeyokunnu, Pastor (Mrs.) Folu Adeboye, and the main message by Pastor E.A. Adeboye. Whether you were there or are seeking to tap into the overflow, use this as a resource to meditate, declare, and experience God’s new beginnings in your life. As Pastor Adeboye proclaimed, “God is doing a new thing—forget the former, embrace the fresh!” Let’s relive the glory and apply it to our 2026 walk.
Opening Prayer: Invoking Fresh Grace for a New Beginning by Pastor Kalu Ndukwe
The service began at 7:00 PM WAT with vibrant praise led by the Mass Choir, singing uplifting songs like “You Are Alpha and Omega” and “A New Thing.” Pastor Kalu Ndukwe, a respected minister in RCCG, delivered the opening prayer, calling for a divine reset and anointing for the year.
Transcript Excerpt of Opening Prayer (Paraphrased from Live Service): “Heavenly Father, we thank You for this gathering under the theme ‘A New Beginning.’ As we start 2026, let Your presence fill this place. We decree new starts in lives here—salvations, healings, and breakthroughs. Sanctify us, Lord. In Jesus’ name, Amen!”
The congregation responded with resounding “Amens,” creating an atmosphere of anticipation, rooted in Isaiah 43:19: “Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth.”
Praise and Worship: Ushering in the Anointing Led by the National Choir
Following the prayer, the national choir led an extended worship session, featuring songs like “Gratitude” and classics that aligned with the theme. This 30-minute segment prepared hearts for the Word, with spontaneous miracles reported during the praise, emphasizing gratitude as in the story of the 10 lepers (Luke 17:12-19).

Attendees shared powerful stories, including a woman healed from chronic pain after 2025’s crossover prayers and a man who received a job promotion—testifying to God’s faithfulness in starting anew.

His 20-minute talk set a foundational tone, blending Scripture with practical wisdom.

The Word and Teachings: Pastor Adeboye’s Message on “A New Beginning”
Pastor Adeboye’s sermon was a masterful blend of Scripture and life application, focusing on embracing God’s resets. Drawing from Isaiah 43:18-19 (“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!”), he taught that new beginnings require letting go, faith, and action.
Key Teachings from the Message:
- Forget the Past (Isaiah 43:18): Dwelling on failures hinders progress. Teaching: Confess, repent, and move forward—God doesn’t remember forgiven sins (Hebrews 8:12).
- Perceive the New Thing (Isaiah 43:19): God is always at work; spiritual sensitivity reveals it. Application: Pray for eyes to see opportunities in 2026.
- Rivers in the Desert: Using 2 Kings 4:1-7 (the widow’s oil), he illustrated multiplication from little. Lesson: Offer what you have—God transforms it.
- Hindrances to New Starts: Unforgiveness, pride, and unbelief block blessings (Mark 11:25; Proverbs 16:18). Using Samson’s story (Judges 16), he warned against pride leading to downfall.
- Connected Destinies: Like Naaman’s story (2 Kings 5), be mindful of how actions affect others’ destinies—total obedience releases miracles.
- Activation Steps: Obey promptly, give sacrificially, and praise in advance for manifestations. Emphasized gratitude to avoid ingratitude’s curse.
The 45-minute message included altar calls, with hundreds responding for salvation and recommitment. Prophecies included: “If you weep in 2026, it will be for joy.” “I will increase your anointing rapidly.” “Very soon, you will shout ‘free at last’.” And “Expect one breakthrough that will enable you to serve Me wholeheartedly.”

- Father, now that my set time has come, arise and help me.
- Father, from this very moment, let all those who are connected with my destiny begin to fulfill their purpose.
