Here's a little history of our humble beginnings...

The history of Adonai Ambassador Assembly would not be complete without acknowledging the history of the Redeemed Christian Church of God. It’s a history of great vision and destiny and it’s exciting to watch this history unfold and indeed God’s prophetic word come to pass right before our eyes. Enjoy

 History of Redeemed

In July 1909, a son was born into the Akindayomi family of Ondo State of Nigeria. Even though this child grew up surrounded by idol worshippers, he knew there existed a greater power that he yearned to know."The God who created the earth and everyone on it". This pursuit for God led him to the Church Missionary Society where he was baptized in 1927. Still spiritually unfulfilled, he joined the Cherubim and Seraphim church in 1931.

Whilst there, he began to hear a voice within him saying, "You will be my servant." Since this was not his intention, he decided to ignore the voice. This went on for seven years during which all the business ventures that he tried resulted into failure. In debt and without peace of mind, he found himself totally dependent on the grace of God. Here marked the beginning of a definite relationship with God. Totally broken, he yielded saying, "Lord, I will go wherever you want me to go." He asked for signs to confirm that this was indeed God's call. The confirmation came through the Bible passages of Jeremiah 1:4-10, Isaiah 41:10-13 and Romans 8:29-31. The Lord assured him that He would provide for all his needs, as he would not receive any salary from that point on. This proved to be a comforting reminder during the trials in the months ahead. He became married in 1941. He continued to worship with the Cherubim and Seraphim. In 1947, he started to become concerned that the church was departing from the true Word of God in some of its practices. By 1952, he felt totally persuaded to leave the church. He started at Willoughby Street, Ebute-Metta, Lagos a housefellowship called, the Glory of God Fellowship. Initially there were nine members but before long the fellowship rapidly grew as the news of the miracles that occurred in their midst spread. 

Pa Akindayomi also had a vision of words that appeared to be written on a blackboard. The words were "The Redeemed Christian Church of God." Amazingly, Pa Akindayomi who could not read or write was supernaturally able to write these words down. In this visitation, God also said to him that this church would go to the ends of the earth and that when the Lord Jesus Christ appeared in glory, He would meet the church. The Lord then established a covenant with Pa Akindayomi, synonymous to the Abrahamic covenant in the Bible. He said that He the Lord would meet all the needs of the church in an awesome way if only members would serve Him faithfully and be obedient to His Word. It is upon this covenant that the Redeemed Christian Church of God was built. 

Thus, the Redeemed Christian Church of God was born in 1952, destined by the Lord Himself to take the world for Him. The church continued to meet at 9 Willoughby Street until they were able to acquire some land thereby witnessing a relocation to the present site of the Headquarters of the church at 1-5 Redemption Way, Ebute-Metta, Lagos (formerly 1a, Cemetery Street), Nigeria.

 Sometime in the early 70s, God had spoken to Pa Akindayomi about his successor. The Lord told him that this man who was not a member of the church then, would be a young educated man. Thus when a young university lecturer joined the church in 1973, Papa was able to recognize him in the Spirit as the one that the Lord had spoken about in the past. This man, Enoch Adejare Adeboye who was then a lecturer of Mathematics at the University of Lagos soon became involved in the church. He became one of the interpreters translating Pa Akindayomi's sermons from Yoruba to English. He was ordained a pastor of the church in 1975.

Papa was preparing to meet his Creator. He sent for Pastor Adeboye and spent several hours sharing with him details of the covenant and the plans of the Lord for the church. Even though a year before this, the Lord had revealed to Pastor Adeboye that he would be Papa's successor, it was still too difficult for him to fully contemplate such an awesome responsibility.

 Since 1981, an open explosion began with the number of parishes growing in leaps and bounds. At the last count, there are at least about 2000 parishes of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in Nigeria. On the International scene, the church is present in other African nations including C'ote D'Ivoire, Ghana, Zambia, Malawi, Zaire, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Gambia, Cameroon, and South Africa. In Europe the church is spread in England, Germany, and France. In the United States there are parishes in Dallas, Tallahassee, Houston, New York, Washington, and Chicago and also in the Caribbean states of Haiti and Jamaica.Today, God is still doing marvelous deeds through the Redeemed Christian Church of God, worldwide. The Holy Ghost Service now holds in London quarterly.

History of Adonai Ambassadors Assembly 

Adonai Ambassador is a church with very humble beginnings ---it started as a fellowship in a member’s living room in April 2004 and became a church on the 4th July 2004.

The Lord led Pastor David to start the church in Leyton, after receiving instructions that he was to start a church in East London and after receiving confirmations from other believers. Pastor David got on a bus bound for Leyton until he spotted a venue that could be used for a church. The church has moved twice since then, until it settled in its current location in October 2007. The Lord has always provided a meeting place for the church but increasingly the church has moved to more strategic location.

ADONAI is a Hebrew word meaning Ruler or Master. The church has been commissioned to be the governing church in Leyton, Waltham Forest and indeed ther entire East London.

The church has three specific mandates, all aimed at raising ambassadors, strong and matured Christians for God

• Rebuilding the lives of people who might have been rejected, disappointed etc

• Maximizing people’s potential so that they can fulfill God’s purpose for their lives

• Equipping and empowering people to be all that God has ordained for them

The church has always looked for strategic locations in order to implement many of the programmes that it has planned.

The ethos of Adonai is about maximizing potential. All members of the church are encouraged either to start their own ministry, using the gifts and talents that the Lord has given them, or get involved in any of the existing ministries in the church.
