The General Overseer of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries (MFM), Dr. Daniel Olukoya has described 2024 as a troublesome year, with positive and negative mix.
The prophet revealed this during the Church’s annual crossover service, on Monday, saying 2023 was a relay race that handed baton to 2024, meaning that the problem the nation faced during last year in terms of banditry, political tensions, economic woes, insurgency will even increase in the new year.
Meanwhile, Olukoya urged Nigerians especially Christians to follow the survival keys to scale through the year, adding that 2024 is a year of open doors and divine speed, quoting bible verses in the book of Revelation 3:7-8 for MFM members worldwide.
“There is plenty to rejoice about (in 2024) and there is plenty to worry about. There are plenty of good things to look forward to. It’s a hydra-headed year, that is, positive and negative mix.
“There is really much to add to 2024. 2023 was like a person running a relay race and just gave the baton to 2024. The difference is that the person they gave the next baton will now have to run faster as a relay race runner.
“So all the events that you saw in 2023 will certainly creep into 2024 and more will be added to it. In addition to what is already on ground, we must take strategic spiritual action,” he said.

14 PROPHETIC OUTLOOKS FOR 2024
1. There is plenty to rejoice about, and there is also plenty to worry about. It is a hydra-headed year. A positive and negative mix! All the events from 2023 will dovetail into this year, and more will be added. In addition to what is already on ground, we must take spiritual strategic action.
2. It is a troublesome year, but not beyond spiritual control.
3. If you stop fighting this year, you start losing. If you reduce the temperature of your fire, the enemy moves in.
4. It is a speedy year. You must resist your weaknesses and strengthen your strengths so that God can move you forward in a new way.
5. This is a year to get your spiritual life on serious fire.
6. Pray, command, decree, and prophesy if you have to, but this year, give no place to the devil. Do what is called an overkill.
7. You must not involve yourself in trial-and-error kinds of endeavours. Find out what God wants you to do and do it.
8. Just like in 2023, the plagues, famine, strange wars, strange deaths, ritualism, bloodshed, chaos, political confusion, and economic trouble will still manifest. High level tension will increase mental troubles.
9. Drinkers of blood and eaters will be in serious rage.
10. Lukewarm Christianity is dangerous this year.
11. Demonisation of the minds of youths must be prayed about so it does not escalate. The youth of this generation need a lot of prayer on their attitude of disrespect, entitlement mentality, doing what they like, being interested in immediate pleasures, five minutes of sexual pleasure, and being a member of the marine kingdom.
12. Many ungodly kings shall receive the slaps of angels because it is a year of open doors and new beginnings for many, a year of uncommon deliverance and miracles.
13. This year, we must key into what is written in 1 Peter 2:9–10.
14. This year, the husband should be the priest of their homes because the anger of God will be released upon a family that will not call on the name of the Lord. (Jeremiah 10:25)
