Menorah Flames International (MFI) was not born out of human ambition but through a divine encounter that shaped its purpose and mission. In 2008, Pastor Adebanjo Oluwadare experienced a life-changing vision during a retreat in Israel. In this encounter, he saw Maria Woodworth-Etter, a revivalist known for carrying the “electricity of heaven” into the dark places of the earth. This revelation, over time, became clearer as he studied her life and understood that this “electricity” represented the Seven Spirits of God (Revelation 4:5).
Another confirmation followed when Pastor Adebanjo began noticing the repeated presence of the number 28 in his life. This led him to meditate on key scriptural passages like Genesis 1:28 (the dominion mandate), Matthew 28:18–19 (the Great Commission), and Genesis 28:11–12 (Jacob’s encounter with the heavenly ladder). These scriptures highlighted the foundational themes that would define the mission of Menorah Flames International: dominion, authority, and divine encounters.
A Call to the End-Time Church
At the heart of MFI’s mandate is the message of the last days’ outpouring of the Spirit, prophesied in Joel 2:28. This prophecy speaks of a great awakening, where God’s Spirit is poured out upon all flesh, equipping believers to align all creation with Heaven’s plan. This was the original assignment given to Adam, which was lost in the Fall but has now been restored through Christ.
MFI stands as a prophetic voice in this generation, calling believers back to their divine purpose. The Church is not merely a gathering of people but a powerful force equipped to exercise dominion over the earth. Pastor Adebanjo teaches that, just as Adam named the creatures—giving them identity and purpose—believers today must step into their God-given authority and shape the world according to Heaven’s blueprint.
A Ministry Marked by Divine Encounters
Menorah Flames International has been marked by supernatural encounters, prophetic revelations, and the demonstration of the Spirit’s power. As Pastor Adebanjo has travelled and ministered across continents, he has seen believers awakened to their spiritual authority. Through his teachings, many have experienced profound encounters with God, leading to transformation, healing, and an increased hunger for the deeper things of the Spirit.
Additionally, Pastor Adebanjo has served alongside Bro. Sadhu Selvaraj for over 15 years in Jesus Ministries, overseeing the work in the United Kingdom and Africa. This role has further affirmed his calling to equip the Body of Christ for the times ahead.
Looking to the Future
As Menorah Flames International continues to expand, its focus remains on preparing believers for the greatest outpouring of God’s Spirit in history. Through conferences, retreats, teachings, and intercessory campaigns, MMI is equipping an army of believers to carry the fire of revival across the nations.
The Church is entering a season of acceleration. The battle lines are drawn, and the forces of darkness are resisting with all their might. But God is raising up a people who will walk in dominion, wielding the weapons of the Spirit with precision. Menorah Flames International stands as a beacon of light in this hour, calling the Church to arise, take her place, and fulfil the mandate given before the foundation of the world.
