Yesterday, you saw the beauty of worship at THE MOVE with Preye Odede.
You understand more that Ministry must find today best expression in industry.
You saw the massive screens, end to end.
You saw the beautiful stage.
You saw all kinds of cameras for filming
You saw all kinds of cameras for photography.
There was an over 600 man volunteer team for the event
You saw guests flown in from Lagos, Ghana and other parts of the country.
You saw Preye Odede gift a car to his band leader.
You saw Preye Odede gift N1million each to his drummer and his music director.
You saw all team members and volunteers adorned in their branded THE MOVE shirts.
You saw an extra tent outside the venue with a sitting capacity of 2,500-3,000.
You saw extra chairs provided.
You saw security companies deployed to maintain order.
You saw the Nation Wide publicity ; State wide was done with big billboards, flyers and campus activations while Nation Wide was done using social media.
You saw the large sized branding materials all over the venue.
All technical team players where the best you can find anywhere in the country. Let me add, they were all from House on the Rock, Port Harcourt we have everything in my church. Young people seeking to learn this level of industry, function in the creative industry but most of all, willing to shine the light of Jesus should attend House on The Rock. It is a complete package.
There are many things you didn't see and I am not at liberty to say them. However, I will state one.
What you did not see or were not told is the well over N40M, was spent putting the event together.
If you attended that event, it means Preye Odede, risked over N40M to bring you the experience you are having today; the healing, the peace, the joy, the infilling of the Holy Ghost, the release for forgiveness and more.
Someone gave you, his life saving.
As you went home happy, did you pray for him?
Did it cross your mind asking, how does he get back this funds so he can keep living his life?
Will it ever come to mind that some day, should you get an opportunity, you would attempt to do something really rewarding for him?
I decided to put this reality right in front of us so we can reflect for a bit whenever you are about to enter into the conversation on if Gospel Artists should charge or if gate fee should be put.
God showed himself mighty. God did not say; oh too much money was paid to the workers and spent.
That event center costs an arm and a leg to use. It costs a staggering N10,000,000 for the full facility.
You saw the use of the event center for one day but it was used for more than one day so setup can be done and all that was paid for.
Shalom!
