About Us

Welcome

I want to take a moment to extend a very warm welcome to everyone who's visiting us for the very first time. Whether you're just having a look, or are searching out for a place to worship, we're delighted to have you here. We are a bible believing, faith based, vibrant and progressive church. An arm of the Redeemed Christian Church of God. On behalf of myself and my beloved wife Kehinde Akinmoyero, RCCG Encomium Palace (AKA) Palace of Praise-POP welcomes you to a church where God’s love embraces all persons equally.
Our anchor scriptures are “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
Matt. 11:28-30 (msg)

Our Lord Jesus is inviting people who are tired and weary to come to him. These are people who are exhausted because they have been working hard. They are also exhausted because they have been doing things on their own, in their own strength. Maybe they have had the wrong priorities. Maybe they have a wrong understanding of what God requires of them. Whatever the case, their efforts have proved to be discouragingly futile. “And I will give you rest.” Jesus is calling these weary souls to come to him, and he promises relief, rest, and refreshment for their souls. Jesus does not promise a rest from work. This whole passage is about learning, working, and service. In the very next verse Jesus invites us to take his yoke, and a yoke is a work implement. On the premise of the above scripture, RCCG Encomium Palace, AKA-Palace of Praise was established. We have the assurance of the unforced rhythms of grace promised us by our Lord Jesus. We have continually experienced these unforced rhythms of grace that has delivered to us victory in battles we never fought and has made us to inherit mountain we never climbed with our feet, but Grace made it happened. There are three things we do in POP, we listen to the word of God, we worship Him, and we experience wonders! Jesus is at the center of everything that we do. From our worship songs, teaching, preaching, children, and youth programs. We believe that only God can transform us and launch us into our purpose and destiny. We are created to worship him with everything we are Encomium Palace is an open and affirming community of faith where you can nurture your spirit or raise your family. Every person who walks through our doors is important to us. As a group of God's people, we care about you and your family and we're here not only to feed you spiritually, but to help in any way we can. We love doing it and it's why we exist!

Steps to Salvation

  • Acknowledge all your sins Acts 2:36 - 38
    Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. 37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
  • Confess those sins. Galatians 5:19 - 21
    Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
  • Ask for forgiveness of sin . I John 1:9
    If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
  • Repent of those sins. Act 3:19
    Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
  • Forsake all your old way and sinful habit Luke 14: 33
    So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
  • Join a Bible believing Church around. Hebrew 10:25
    Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
