A Day Set Apart for Praise

Festival of Praise

The 2026 Apostolic Invasion, themed Overflowing, moved from five nights of revival into a full day of celebration on Saturday, 1st August, as the KHGM family gathered at the Headquarters Auditorium, Oke-Maro, Amoyo, for the Festival of Praise. Where the earlier nights carried the weight of deep teaching and ministration, Saturday’s program shifted the mood entirely — it was a day set aside simply to lift up the name of God in song, dance, and thanksgiving for everything He had done through the week.

An Opening That Set the Mood

The day opened with a warm word of welcome, setting the tone for what was to come and reminding the congregation why the day mattered. It was a simple but important moment — a reminder that the Festival of Praise was not just another event on the calendar, but a deliberate response to everything God had done through the week’s revival.

The Festival of Praise opened with a word setting the tone for a day dedicated to worship.

Instruments Join the Celebration

The band brought the celebration to life, with saxophones and trumpet weaving through the melodies as the musicians played with visible passion. Their sound filled the auditorium and carried the congregation into a deeper place of worship, proof that praise at KHGM is never a quiet affair.

Voices That Carried the Room

One after another, ministers took turns leading the congregation in song, each bringing their own energy to the platform. Some ministered with quiet confidence, others with full-bodied passion that had them closing their eyes and raising a fist as they sang, completely lost in the moment. The screen at the back of the hall kept the congregation connected to every minister as they stepped up, making sure no corner of the auditorium missed a beat.

A Word to Close the Celebration

As the day drew toward its close, a final word was shared with the congregation, pointing forward and setting expectations for what the convention still had in store. It was a reminder that even in a day built around celebration, the ministry never lost sight of the bigger picture — every song, every dance, every raised hand was still part of a larger story God was writing through the week.

Closing Out a Week of Overflow

The Festival of Praise served as a fitting bridge between the intensity of the revival nights and the reflective tone expected at Sunday’s Thanksgiving Service. Having received strong ministration from Apostle Blessing Salami throughout the week, the congregation used Saturday to respond in the only way that made sense — with praise. It was a reminder that every word sown during the revival nights was never meant to end in the hearing alone; it was meant to produce exactly this kind of response.

With the Festival of Praise now behind it, the convention moves into its final day — the Thanksgiving Service on Sunday, 2nd August at 10am, which promises to close out a week that has, true to its theme, been nothing short of Overflowing.
