About Court Session with the Lord:
'Court Session with the Lord' is the non-denominational intercessory program initiative of The Lord's Court International (LCI), a non-denominational intercessory ministry called by God to return His people to their knees in personal prayers and intercession for a one-on-one communion with God
LCI is an unusual ministry with an unusual mandate as contained in Joel 2:14-17 (CEV): "I am the Lord your God. Perhaps I will change my mind and treat you with mercy. Then, you will be blessed with enough grain and wine for offering sacrifices to me.
Sound the trumpet in Zion! Call the people together. Show your sorrow by going without food. Make sure that everyone is fit to worship me. Bring adults, children, babies, and even bring newlyweds from their festivities.
Tell my servants, the priests, to cry inside the temple and to offer this prayer near the altar: "Save your people, Lord God! Don't let foreign nations make jokes about us. Don't let them laugh and ask, 'Where is your God?'"
A global ministry with members from all the continents of the world with the specific instruction from God to bring all the challenges of God's people that have led held them bound before Him in His court for adjudication and intervention, it is founded by Pastor Ray Festus Symperr, an intercessor by calling cum a television producer, publisher and information technologist by training.

THE SPECIAL WITH THE LORD IN HIS COURT AGAINST UNTIMELY DEATH (FROM 11.00 P.M., FRIDAY, 8TH - SATURDAY, 3.00 A.M., 9TH JULY, 2011.
VENUE:
At your personal or family altar.
THEME: "O Lord, deliver our soul from death, and keep us alive..." (Psalm 33:19 KJV).
WHY THIS SESSION
In recent times, the rate of untimely death especially among God's children cannot be over-emphasized. This occurs either through all kinds of accidents, brief illness and so on.
Sad to mention, among countless number of others, was the death of my beloved cousin, Mr. Ajanaku Ojo Oguns, reputable chartered town planner and Assistant Chief Technical Officer (ACTO) with the Federal Ministry of Lands, Housing and Regional Planning, his wife, Mrs. Emily Olapeju Oguns, a Bachelors degree holder in Textile Designs and Technology and a family friend, Pastor Matthew Adewole Adamaigbo, a renowned banker and Zonal Manager (Eastern Nigeria) with Oceanic Bank Plc on a ghastly auto accident on Friday, 6th May, 2011 at Ofosu-Ore, Ogun State when they were traveling to Lagos from Warri, Delta State for a wedding ceremony at the prime of their youths. What a bad omen to their respective families. This can never be the will of God. The enemy has done this. May the Lord grant them the fortitude to bear the losses in Jesus' name, Amen.
Brethren, we cannot continue to fold our hands to see our enemy, death, causing devastation in the camp of the righteous. It is our duty to rise up and declare 'NO' to its obnoxious activities.
Recently, the Lord impressed it strongly on my heart to raise a session with Him to stop the mouth of death through the power of intercession; and that is exactly what this program is out to achieve. The Bible says, "The last enemy that shall die is death." We are gathering to celebrate the funeral of death in our lives and the lives of others around us.
This session shall feature militant intercessory prayers for our children, youths, spouses, pregnant mothers, friends and loved ones, etc.
As you choose to attend, whether at your personal or family or live, it is my assurance that the Lord shall put an end to all the activities of death in your life and in the lives of your loved ones in Jesus' name.
Please, for those outside Lagos who may not be able to attend live, check out for the Sitting Order not later than Thursday, 7th July, 2011 on this site.
