Why house of eight ministries - HO8M?

Welcome to the House of Eight Ministries - HO8M. This is the name God Almighty revealed to MAN OF GOD, Sybrand JvR one Sunday morning in the vision, 13 months after the ministry had started in 2024, in Cape Town, South Africa. As he clearly saw the name the Lord spoke to MAN OF GOD, Sybrand JvR’s heart. “This name is to remind you and many others of the humble beginnings of Prophet TB Joshua. With just 8 members he named the church, The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations. The name, House Of Eight Ministries - HO8M, is to remind you that humility is key. Remember what your father in the Lord, Prophet TB Joshua taught you all; to exercise more humility the more God uses you; not to forget where you are coming from. This name should also remind you of the divine significance of the number eight in God’s Word. The number eight signifies, a Fresh Start , a New Beginning, and a New Dawn.” 

In Matthew 28, Luke 24, and John 20 - Jesus Christ was resurrected on the eighth day. As the women ran to the tomb on the first day of the week, which is the eighth day, they saw that the stone had been rolled away. Jesus lives, He never said, “Goodbye”. Jesus said, “I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”  He never said there will be no more healing, deliverance and all of God’s blessings. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. Through Jesus’ resurrection we are part of the New Covenant God made with us through His Son, Jesus Christ. In the Bible the male children had to be circumcised on the eighth day to be part of the Covenant God had made with Abraham.  Eight people were saved through Noah’s Ark and Apostle Peter in 1 Peter 3:20 compares this to the baptism through Christ Jesus as a Spiritual Rebirth. There are so many examples in God’s Word referring to the number eight and the eighth day. 

What a God we have to worship. What a Son we have to praise. What a future lies before us.
