He enabled the Israelites to cross the Red Sea on a dry ground. He pulled down the walls of Jericho without any bulldozer. Indeed, He is a God who makes way where there is no way. In the case of Africa's great evangelist and revivalist, Apostle Joseph Ayodele Babalola, the miraculous activity of God was clearly manifested. If Babalola had been a white missionary, the black people, nay, Africans would probably have regarded Holy Ghost power as exclusive preserve of the white men. Glory be unto God for bestowing on a proper black man extra- ordinary power of the Holy Spirit with which he was able to destroy the stronghold of devilish activities.
