MESSAGE FROM THE CHANCELLOR

Greetings to you in the Name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ who gave himself for us, an offering without spot to God and ever lives to make intercession for us at the right hand of the Father (Heb. 7:25) Halleluyah.

I thank my God on your behalf because your decision to study at IBSS is not by flesh and blood but by the Spirit of God who is the Lord of the harvest. Here at IBSS, we work by the leading of the Holy Spirit to ready an army for the last move of God's Spirit as he pours out the latter rain.

My eyes were opened April 2004 in the realms of the spirit as I saw the Lord Jesus Christ before me and He spoke these words to me while I was in the Spirit. "The harvest is ripe but the labourers are few, therefore go, raise labourers for the harvest field" This vision is the foundation upon which this school is founded.

Your decision to be trained at IBSS is a decision to sit at the Master's feet and be readied for the work of the ministry into which He has called you.

Don't relent, get up and get into the race, for the time is short.

ISAIAH MICHAEL WEALTH BEng, Bmin, Mmin, Dmin, D.D

SECTION ONE

A Brief History

The International Bible School and Seminary (IBSS) is the Bible School of the Isaiah Wealth Ministry established to fulfill the mandate of our lord and savior Jesus Christ in accordance to Matthew 24:14,

“And this Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come”.

The vision of the institute which is “raising laborers for the harvest field and equipping the everyday

believer in the things of God” is in line with the mandate given to Dr Isaiah Wealth in January, 2004

during a divine encounter.

ACCREDITATION

The International Bible School and Seminary is the Bible School of the Isaiah Wealth Ministries which has been duly registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission of the Federal Republic of Nigeria with Registration No. – CAC/IT/NO61815 as required by the Companies and Allied Act 1, 1990 to train ministers and run bible school.

For many years and with a presence in over three continents, the Isaiah Wealth Ministries has been a strong player in the unravelling of scriptures and the teaching, training, equipping, and ordination of ministers and missionaries in the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. The extent of its reach and impact speaks volume of its experience and leadership in the Gospel of our day. In the matter of accreditation, knowing that the true measure of the quality of an education and the institution itself is the extensive experience and credentials of its faculty, the integrity of its courses and programmes, and ultimately the ministry achievements of its graduates, our training institute - IBSS is therefore not under

obligation to be affiliated to any State or National accrediting agency, as the same experience, impact, and credentials which are the foundation of the ministry's institute are sufficient endorsement of the integrity of its programmes. It is also of importance to note here that the intention and potency of its degrees is not for secular consideration but rather for ministry operations and to qualify for further ministerial studies of higher orientation.

We operate as a Bible Institute with students graduating and serving in various areas of ministry

including preaching, teaching, leadership, counselling and missions. The Institute has graduated several students with degrees for greater effectiveness in the work of the Ministry.

IBSS is guided in its internal processes of developing and upgrading institutional policies and

procedures, curriculum development, and also determining the targeted quality for its courses and programs by assessments which include the mission and objectives of the institution, academic rigor of course requirements by degree level, integrity of student work, institutional services and faculty

(4)

We remain ready and able to deliver one of the best experiences in learning the scriptures and obtaining the required certification and licence to function in the ministry of our Lord Jesus against which there is no law, physical, or spiritual.
