Fathers and Fatherhood was taught by Rev. Dunamis Okunowo on the 20th of June 2021 at Shouts of Grace Center, Joke Plaza, Beside Trans Amusement Park, Bodija-UI Road, Ibadan.
In his teaching, Rev. Dunamis made mention of the following important points:
The rising of children lie in their fathers
You are designed to tap into the grace and strength of your father so that you can go farther.
A simple offence at your covering can cost you your life.
There ought to be a mutual embrace between the father and the son.
A Father Warns
I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn you.
1 Corinthians 4:14 (NKJV)
He reprimands you. He disciplines you. He’s not some cheerleader who pampers you.
It’s not everything you obey that you understand, but once you obey, you position yourself for favour.
Anybody that cannot be disciplined is a bastard.
If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten? But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.
Hebrews 12:7-8 (NKJV)
When you are being corrected, your ego is bruised, but you must heed instruction.
Correction is bitter but the end result is sweet.
A Father Exhibits Humility
It is the responsibility of a father to provide for his children.
A Father Protects
If you are not covered, you will struggle all your life. You don’t fight your pastor; you don’t fight your father.
You have a covering of protection under the person you are submitted to.
A Father Preserves
Your father has authority in his voice.
A Father Provides Priesthood
A father (biological) has the responsibility to take the needs of the family to God. The devil can’t afflict your household unless you permit.
A Father Is A Prophet
The father is a prophetic personality.
It takes your prophet to show you where your prosperity is.
As a son, you must understand when there is a shift in your father’s life, and when you see it you will get double of the anointing over his life.

Brokenness was taught by Rev. Dunamis Okunowo on the 9th of June 2021 at Shouts of Grace Center, Joke Plaza, Beside Trans Amusement Park, Bodija-UI Road, Ibadan.
In his teaching, Rev. Dunamis made mention of the following important points:
Every major blessing and increase begins with you going into yourself to see (to take stock) – Mark 6:38. But you should have it in mind that as you are going to see, distractions will show up; so you must be focused.
The things (Word) of God is not logically discerned; they are spiritually discerned.
GO AND SEE means to be detailed (focus on your life)
Brokenness is the place where you submit your all to God. You don’t play hanky-panky with God.
There’s no brokenness without sincerity.
When you are broken, the windows of heaven will open (Gen 7:11), God will be right where you are (Psalm 34:18), God will attend to you (Psalm 51:17), God will use you (Acts 27:25).
Brokenness is total submission to God; letting go of your bad habits, weakness, etc. When you are broken, you die to the flesh.
You have to achieve brokenness first if you must get into the fullness of what God has for you.
You can only be broken if you are thankful (1 Cor 11:24, Mark 6:41)
Thanksgiving comes before brokenness.
In order for your blessing to be fully manifested, you must be broken. Your destiny cannot be served, even though you are blessed, until you are broken.
It takes brokenness not to be angry with God.
Every time you refuse to be broken, you slow yourself down.
YOU ACHIEVE BROKENNESS BY THE WORD OF GOD – Proverbs 4:20
My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.
Proverbs 4:20-22 (NKJV)
