Why I Conceived The Vision Of Ten commandments- Senator Jang
By Daniel Agada, Jos
The President of Yeshua kingdom foundation international and former Governor of Plateau State, Senator Jonah David Jang explain the rationale behind the conception of ten commandments monument prayer alter.
The epoch making event of ten commandments dedication that held on Friday in Doi, Du district, Jos South LGA, Plateau State saw the presence dignitaries at home and diaspora.
According to senator Jang “God’s Commandment Whoever therefore breaks one the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 5:19. NOTE 1: The simple minded saint who, with little or no formal education, follows God’s word is considered great in the eyes of heZaven, while those who scoff at the Bible are disdained in the eyes of heaven.
2:The Kingdom of God is therefore not impressed by the theological accolades or academic accomplishments of men. In heaven’s kingdom, people are esteemed in direct proportion to the value they place on the word of God. Amen.
“I am delighted to stand before you today, not just because of the opportunity to address this all-important audience but because it is indeed a memorable day. This is the day which the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118:24)
“Permit me to especially welcome our former President His Excellency Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to Plateau State again. We are happy and privilege to have you among us. We will continue to pray to God to guide you into His will in your future endeavours.
“What we are doing here is quite symbolic because the Bible is replete with instances where altars were built; therefore the significance of what is happening here today is divine because we have seen in several Bible passages that each time there was an encounter with the Lord; an altar was built as a memorial of God’s visitation. This was a regular occurrence in the life our father of faith Abraham and the generations that followed after him.
“It is a great honour for me to warmly welcome you to this very special service. We are gathered here not just to have a ceremony but in obedience to the vision God gave me to present the altar to Him.
“We give glory to God most High, the King of Kings and Master of the universe for making it possible for the dedication Of Yeshua Kingdom Foundation Ministry International feasible today.
“I wish to acknowledge the untiring efforts of all those that have contributed to the development of those structures and preparations for this dedication to the glory of God. May the good Lord bless you ail.
I received a revelation about the Ten Commandments but did not understand it fully; neither did I know exactly what to do about it. Within that period I received a visitor from the Philippines who resided in Jerusalem, Prophetess Grace Gupana, I shared the revelation with her and she also told me about the Ten Commandments monument in the Philippines and we both agreed to pray overnight to get clarity on what God want me to do. After the prayer, we were convinced that God’s revelation to me was to erect the Ten Commandment here in Jos.
“I directed a team to search for a suitable spot for the erection of the tablets. Three sites were recommended including the present site. When i visited this site, I felt a very strong presence of the Holy Spirit and I just went down on my knees, and everyone with me went down on their knees. A voice said to me that “This is the place.” When work started on the site, there was a clear message that no stone should be broken.
“On one of the visits to the site, I received a message to build a pool and christen it the pool of Bethsaida beside the Ten Commandments Monument, where baptisms can be conducted. That has been constructed.
At some point, work on the site stopped due to insufficient funds. However, a warning came from the Lord that I have abandoned God’s work. Following the warning, I had to quickly remobilize to site to continue with the project.
“Today, I am grateful to God that the Ten Commandments tablets has been completed, prayer rooms and the international altar is ready, the pool of Bethsaida, a 5800 seater arena is ready and fully equipped with sound system and lighting in place. To complement the facilities for the smooth operation of Yeshua Kingdom Foundation International, the Women and Youth Empowerment Foundation (WAYEF) located nearby has donated all its chalets, hostels, clinic and workshops to boost needed resources base for the ministry’s operations.
“The vision to build a place where prayers and worship will be offered to the Lord was inspired by the Holy Spirit. He knows the beginning to the end. This dedication ceremony makes us to look back and thank God for everything, His mercies and goodness have brought us thus far and He will continue to abide with us.
“We have been praying and asking the Lord for a time such as this when the body of Christ, will come together in unity and one accord, to offer prayers of dedication and consecration unto Him. As we dedicate the Ten Commandment Monument today, I pray that this place brings unity to the body of Christ in our State and Nation and indeed to all men.
“This place avails us a platform where we can cry unto the Lord for the many ills that bedevil our dear State and Nation today. Our peace, prosperity, unity, health, indivisibility as a nation is in the place of prayer and as Christians, we must pray into existence the very things we want our Father to make happen in our dear country.
Our Vision therefore is to have:
Wholistic discipleship and transforming generations across nations Advance the Kingdom of God through making obedient disciples who will continue to multiply the DNA of Christ Jesus.

“I must use this opportunity to commend the body of Christ on the Plateau, although we may belong to different blocks, the umbrella body of CAN has served as a unifying and rallying point for Christians in the State and the Nation. Let the unity that we have experienced continue to be strengthened to the glory of God.
“I pray that each and everyone here will make use of this altar for personal and collective retreat to build a strong relationship with our Saviour. This altar is now opened for the use of all churches, ministries and Christian organisations. We will welcome God’s children to sow seed for the Master’s work to continue.
