Introduction The opening night of Greater Works 2025 was nothing short of electric. Thousands gathered physically in Accra and tens of thousands joined online across the world as Pastor Mensa Otabil opened the conference with a prophetic word straight from the heart of God:
“You will do greater works—not because you are powerful, but because Jesus said so.”
With passionate praise, soul-stirring worship led by Nathaniel Bassey, and a message that shook the foundations of self-doubt and human limitation, the night marked both the end of the 40 Days of Power and the beginning of a new season of divine activation.
Key Highlights from the Opening Sermon: “Doing Greater Works”
1. Greater Works Begins with Faith, Not Qualification Preaching from John 14:12, Pastor Otabil reminded the audience that Jesus declared the promise of “greater works” to disciples who were full of doubt and confusion:
“Philip disappointed Jesus by asking, ‘Show us the Father.’ Yet Jesus still said to him: Amen, Amen—you will do greater works.”
2. The Power Is in the Person of Christ
“Jesus didn’t say we’ll do greater works because we are great, educated, or anointed,” he said. “He said we will do it because He is going to the Father. Our greatness is anchored in His greatness.”
3. Greater Works Means Repair and Restoration Drawing from Matthew 11:2–6, Pastor Otabil highlighted that the works of Christ involve restoring what is broken—healing the blind, raising the dead, and preaching hope to the poor.
“Tonight, I speak repair into your body, your family, your finances, your soul. Be healed. Be restored—in the name of Jesus!”
4. Louder Works, Larger Reach
“Jesus ministered quietly in Galilee. You will do louder works—amplified works—because of digital reach, global movement, and the Spirit’s power. What He did for individuals, you will do for cities and nations,” Pastor Otabil declared.
5. “Amen, Amen” – The Pillar of Confidence The phrase “verily, verily” or “amen, amen” in John 14:12 was powerfully unpacked:
“When Jesus says ‘Amen, Amen’, it’s like the pillar of truth that holds up all of heaven. His ‘Amen’ cannot fail.”
Conclusion: This Is Your Season of Amplified Grace
From personal struggles to national frustrations, Pastor Otabil’s message cut through despair with a divine promise:
“You may feel like Philip, like you’ve failed, but Jesus still says—Amen, Amen—you will do greater works.”
He closed the night with a powerful altar call and prayer for salvation and healing, declaring restoration over every life.
“Not because we are anointed, but because He is. We believe in His Amen.”
