Abstract

This paper explores the spiritual and historical journey of the Lordship of Jesus Christ as it transitioned from the United Kingdom through the United States to Africa, with a specific focus on twin-saving missions in Nigeria. It examines the foundational missionary work of Mary Slessor in the early 20th century, her limitations in confronting the indigenous deity Ikpaisong responsible for twin killings, and the eventual decisive intervention by American medical missionary Dr. Henry Farrar in 1964. The paper highlights the prophetic significance of the 49-year interval between these two missions, coinciding with the biblical concept of Jubilee—a year of release and restoration. The narrative culminates in the recognition of Akwa Abasi Ibom State (formerly Ikot Nsekong) as the African Holy Land, where God's promises to His people are being fulfilled. This study underscores the spiritual reclamation of Africa and the renewed global revival emanating from this African epicenter of faith.

Introduction

The Christian mission in Africa has undergone a dynamic spiritual progression marked by significant historical milestones. This paper traces the symbolic and actual "flag" of the Lordship of Jesus Christ as it shifted across continents and centuries—beginning with the pioneering work of Mary Slessor in Nigeria, moving through the American missionary era with Dr. Henry Farrar, and culminating in the present-day spiritual awakening in Africa, specifically Akwa Abasi Ibom State.

Mary Slessor, a Scottish Presbyterian missionary, is renowned for her courageous advocacy against the killing of twins and their mothers in the Cross River region of Nigeria. Despite her impactful humanitarian efforts, Slessor was unable to dismantle the indigenous religious system symbolized by the Ikpaisong deity, which perpetuated the twin-killing practice. Forty-nine years after her death, a symbolic Jubilee year, Dr. Henry Farrar, an American medical missionary, initiated a decisive spiritual intervention to uproot the deity and redeem the land.

Historical Background

Mary Slessor and the Early Mission

Mary Slessor arrived in Nigeria in the late 19th century under the Presbyterian Church of England. Her mission focused primarily on saving twins and their mothers from ritual killings, a practice deeply rooted in local beliefs upheld by the Ikpaisong deity. Slessor’s compassionate work led to widespread social change, yet the spiritual authority behind the killings remained unchallenged. Her death in 1915 marked the end of an era, coinciding with the British government’s political amalgamation of Northern and Southern Nigeria in 1914.

The Limitation of Early Missionary Efforts

While Slessor’s legacy is commendable, historical research reveals that the Ikpaisong deity and its worshippers manipulated the memory of her work, and the spiritual bondage in the region persisted. The land continued to suffer under the influence of traditional deities that resisted Christian spiritual authority.

The Jubilee Shift: Dr. Henry Farrar’s Intervention

The Prophetic Timing

In 1964, exactly forty-nine years after Slessor’s death, the Lordship of Jesus Christ was symbolically shifted from the United Kingdom to the United States through Dr. Henry Farrar, a medical missionary of the Church of Christ from Nashville, Tennessee. The year 1964 corresponds prophetically to a Jubilee—a biblical period of restoration, redemption, and release occurring every 49 years (seven times seven).

The timing was divinely orchestrated. God waited for the Jubilee year to intervene with power and authority, signaling a time for spiritual release and restoration for the land and people of Nigeria. Nigeria’s independence in 1960, falling exactly 49 years after the 1911 amalgamation, further aligns with the Jubilee theme of liberation.

The Battle at Ikot Nsekong

Dr. Farrar’s arrival heralded a spiritual battle against the mother earth deity Ikpaisong at the shrine in Ikot Nsekong, Abiakpo Ikot Abasi Inyang. Witnesses recount an earthshaking event described as a "gunshot," symbolizing the defeat of the deity and the destruction of its shrine. This dramatic event represents God’s judgment against false gods and the reclaiming of the land for Christ.

The site of the shrine was later transformed into a community borehole, and the village renamed "Ubon Abasi Ibom," symbolically declaring the land as the "Israel of Africa."

The African Holy Land and Divine Promises

Following Dr. Farrar’s death in 2010, coinciding with Nigeria’s Golden Jubilee (50 years of independence), the spiritual significance of Ubon Abasi Ibom was publicly acknowledged by the head of prayers at the State House Chapel in Abuja. The land was declared the African Holy Land—an epicenter for the Lordship of Jesus Christ and the revival of faith across continents.

Sevenfold Promises to Ubon Abasi Ibom (Akwa Abasi Ibom State)

·        I will make your new name UBON ABASI IBOM ('Akwa Abasi Ibom State') great among the nations.

·        I am returned unto you and dwell in your midst as Akwa Abasi Ibom (Almighty God) and have given you the chair and flag of His Lordship as a sign of my visitation upon the land.

·        I will show mercy upon you and your children and will bring them home from far country clean because I have found a Ransom.

·        I will make your seeds great among the nations and you shall not be a reproach among them anymore.

·        I will be your God in truth and in righteousness, as I was with my people Israel because I am your God of Armies and you're sovereign.

·        I will curse them that curse you and bless those that bless you.

·        I will give you a seed as my elect's state (in Africa) that would be an authentic solution to the problems of nations in these last days.

Conclusion

The shift of the Lordship of Jesus Christ’s flag—from the United Kingdom to the United States, and ultimately to Africa—reflects a divine timeline marked by spiritual warfare, redemption, and restoration. The twin-saving missions of Mary Slessor and Dr. Henry Farrar represent two pivotal phases in this process, culminating in the transformation of Akwa Abasi Ibom into the African Holy Land. This spiritual reclamation signifies Africa’s growing role in global Christian revival and the fulfillment of God’s promises in these last days.
