HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO THE JUBILEE PRAYER Tower? It is located at the Gethsemane World Prayer Centre, Eleyele Ibadan, Nigeria. It is a place consecrated for personal, community, city-level and global prayers. I encourage you to visit this prayer tower for an encounter with the God who answers prayer.
The Gethsemane Jubilee Prayer Tower is presently one of the tallest prayer tower in Nigeria and possibly Africa. It is a place with ample rooms and floors for different aspects of prayer. As an intercessory ministry, we encourage intercessors, friends and all Christians everywhere to visit every floor of the tower to experience the amazing power of prayer and to also contribute their quota in the 24 hour prayer chain. To enhance easy movement, the tower is fitted with a brand new ten passenger elevator.
The History of the Jubilee Prayer Tower
In the year 2004, the president of the Gethsemane Prayer Ministries, Reverend Dr. Moses Aransiola came up with a burden to set up a 24/7 prayer watch tower for the entire body of Christ. It was to be the first of its kind in the city of Ibadan. This led to the inauguration of the "Ibadan House of Prayer", an interdenominational city prayer altar in July 2004. The first prayer tower which served as the operational building for the 'Ibadan House of Prayer' was commissioned by General Dr. Yakubu Gowon at the old site of Gethsemane Prayer Ministries Head Quarters, 32, Ladoke Akintola Way, Mosafejo B/Stop, Sango/Eleyele Road, Ibadan. The name 'Ibadan House of Prayer' was later changed to 'Gethsemane House of Prayer' two years later.
Since then watchers have come from different denominational backgrounds to participate in the Gethsemane House of Prayer. The watch operations on this altar started with two (2) watches of two hours per watch and later moved up to twelve watches covering the entire 24 hours in a day. This was until the Lord blessed Gethsemane Prayer Ministries with a property that has now become the new church headquarters that is called 'Gethsemane World Prayer Centre'. It is an ultra-modern complex comprising several facilities, one of which is the 7-storey 'Jubilee Prayer Tower.' This new Gethsemane Jubilee Prayer Tower is the new facility for Gethsemane House of Prayer.
The facility affords ample space or floors for different aspects of prayer. It is also fitted with a functional elevator to aid easy commuting between the floors. It is an all-denominational prayer altar for the entire body of Christ. This magnificent edifice, the first of its kind in this part of the world consists of seven prayer floors, a new and functional elevator, toilets, and other facilities. It was officially dedicated by Pastor (Mrs.) Folu Adeboye, the Mummy G.O of the Redeemed Christian Church of God on Wednesday October 3rd, 2012.
