Despite Covid, we planted 10,000 Churches without raising an offering ― Bishop Oyedepo
According to the Bishop: “I believe in Nigeria and that is why I am still here, and still praying for Nigeria. But I consider it a demotion if I am invited to become the president of Nigeria. I am called for a global impact. I saw this since 1984.
“Even the devil knows that you can’t be genuinely sold-out to serving God, and not standout in life.
“Since 1976, I have never missed a change of story” Oyedepo said.
“I was 19 years old when I prayed to God not to let me leave a village the way I met it. So I was 19 when I encountered destiny.
“I have not been tired going out for God since 1976”.
He urged members of the church to pray for grace to be released on them for global impact for Christ.
