HISTORY
THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS
WORSHIP CENTER (LORWC) started on the 28th of March, 2010, after the Lord
had spoken to John A. Bassey through
a revelation from God and through several divine messages from various men
and women of God, besides his own personal growth in the knowledge of the Word
of God. The name of the church was first revealed to Mr. Bassey
on the 22nd of May, 2009, between the hours of 8:45AM and 10:00AM at
Scholars Academy when he was having a prep period which was a
few-minute-break from his students. Mr. Bassey
non-challantly wrote the name down in his writing pad
and forgot about it as he was still serving at some other church in Queens
as a Music Director and one of the officiating Ministers under
the leadership of Pastor Folusho Akinbola
and Pastor Toyin Akinbola
(RCCG), and he had no plans any time soon to heed to any such call if it was a
real.
To his greatest amazement,
something unexpectedly occurred later in the year that caused Mr. Bassey to separate from the church where he had
been serving under the jurisdiction for a total of 7 years and 2 months (Bronx
and Queens). After been prayed for by his gracious pastors for his exit, he
left the church on the 29th of November, 2010, not for the purpose of starting
a new ministry, in fact, he had completely forgotten about the revelation
received in May of 2009. He wasn't sure where he was headed as he had
always enjoyed the company of those he served under, but he was convinced by
the Spirit of the Lord that he must leave and that he would be making a
huge mistake if he stayed.
Since they could not afford to
not attend any church on Sundays even though they had just left the other
church, they started visiting the Abundant Life Christian Center (Winners
House), where they found solace and were comforted and fed spiritually.
They were always prayed for and taken good care of by Pastor Festus Adeyeye and Pastor Anthonia Adeyeye. They attended the Foundation of Faith and Partnership
classes. The presence of God was always felt at every service and people
were always added to the church every Sunday.
Interestingly enough,
they were already getting comfortable with the newly found place of
worship when the Lord brought their attention to the earlier
revelation in May 2009 - THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. They decided to wait on
the Lord for 40 days, beginning January 1, 2010, trusting God for a follow up
confirmation. Little had they known that the Lord had separated them from
the previous church for an Apostolic Mission. The
fasting thus continued for 40 days and God in his infinite mercies confirmed
His word through new revelations. Apostle John A. Bassey
started reading books on Apostolic Callings and Works as revealed by the Lord
and the vision continued to get clearer and clearer.
Mr. & Mrs. Bassey shared some of their revelations with their
current pastors at ALCC and previous pastors at the RCCG and were prayed
for. "During our 3 month stay at ALCC, the Lord strengthened us greatly,
confirmed His word, gave us the day to start, and showed us where to start,”
Mr. Bassey narrates." Pastor Festus Adeyeye anointed us on our last Sunday at ALCC,
specifically March 21, 2010, and the new church began 7 days after - March 28,
2010.
On May 11, 2010, exactly two
months into the launching of the ministry, Apostle John A. Bassey
had a one-on-one supernatural encounter with our Lord Jesus for confirmation of
his Apostolic Ministry with specific directions.
