Celestialsword:
witchcraft and occultic practices are used negatively by Africans to kill, maim, and destroy

The whites use it explore extra terrestrial planes and brings in solutions to the physical

Why hasn't any African countries gone to Antarctica or the moon.

All these are beyond science
So the reason why Africa is underdeveloped is because we've not encouraged the use of witchcraft in improving technologies?

One thing about men like Idahosa and Oyedepo is that even if they were not into gospel they would still be successful businessmen or politicians.

They have the charisma and ability to sweet talk people.

In today's world that is a great attribute for success

Celestialsword:
witchcraft and occult practices abounds in all countries of the world.

This doesn't propel or down play development and progress of a people or nation
You are being so realistic brother.

Hard work, leadership and selfless citizens with the right mindsets and acquisitions are the things needed to develop.

When someone says or act like “there is no God” or “miracles don’t exist,” it doesn’t just mean they are expressing disbelief. Such denial creates a spiritual vacuum, and in that emptiness, the devil can easily influence their thoughts & life.
Denying God or his miracles draws a person unknowingly closer to the devil’s deception.
This is a reminder that disbelief is not neutral; it tilts a person toward darkness because they are shutting themselves off from the light of God.
Pray for them for the devil might be actually speaking through them to you.

Bishop Benson idashosa is the father of pentecostalism in Nigeria today.

The man mentored pastors like pat Adeboye, pat Oyedepo, pat Mike okonkwo, pat Awunzia and many more.

His life vindicates the calling that God's work is not a business.

After his death there was a tossle over who would lead the church. His wife won a court dispute and took over the church.

While the ministers moved out. But Looking at the church of God Mission the glory has departed.
Why would the Curt rules in favor of his wife? The church is not a family busines, supposed redeem church leader then handed over to the family maybe the same fate would have falling on them too.

The church (COGM) was incorporated under his name and so documents proved that that church wasn't public.

Church like christ embassy, living faith, dunamis, house on the rock are registered under the founders name.

These are the videos I spoke about in the following thread, which God showed me in quick succession at midnight after I'd just broken a 3-day dry fast, to prove to me it wasn't impossible with Him for one person to put a stop to such diabolic activities in a land, because He has done it before (with Idahosa), so He can do it again.

https://www.nairaland.com/8370365/exposed-prophets-day-native-doctors#134557881

Despite following Idahosa during my childhood days while he was yet alive, that was the first time I heard that God had used him to accomplish a similar feat, hence I just knew it wasn't a coincidence, because it came at the same period I was beginning to doubt if putting an end to ritual killings and human sacrifices in this land was too much for one person alone to handle, after all my efforts in this regard were proving abortive despite all my praying and fasting, in addition the sheer amount of spiritual attacks I had faced during that period after declaring war on such vices.

I also came to realize that this seems a usual pattern when God wants to bring revival to a land that is deeply immersed in idolatry, witchcraft, which goes hand in hand with the practice of human sacrifices and ritual killings, as I also later learnt that God also used Ayo Babalola to achieve the same feat in the land and all the places he later used him to bring revival to.

Moreover this was also observed in the Bible days when God's people Israel had abandoned their God to commit whoredom the gods of the former inhabitants of the land and corrupted themselves with such abominable practices, where God would raise prophets such as Elijah to carry out a thorough clean up of the land to rid them of such abominable practices before restoring His people and healing their land.

Hence I believe that is what God is about in this nation at this time in preparation for His mighty endtime revival which is imminent upon this land.

God bless.
With this same energy, pray for God to give you the power to end unemployment in the land. If this your God use you build factories where people can secure jobs to get stable income whereby eliminating insecurities and human sacrifices, will he not be your God?

Make una dey pray for wisdom and sense. No forces anywhere dey do una.

If this Story is true, then the football match between India and Nigeria which ended 99-0 is also true.
Who lie you dis kind lie? Who do you this kind thing?
Plane already full?, then extra passengers in the same aircraft? with a god of man as an unregistered passenger miss road from airport enter plane even come dey request for someone to give up seats for his guests on a plane where he has got no tickets for?

You have never been 100 km near an airplane, airport or airstrip.


Dogalmighty17:
Few people know the story of the encounter Dangote had with Benson Idahosa.

Over 30 years ago when T.L Osbourne and his wife Daisy visited Idahosa and needed to return, the plane back to the US was already full and another will not be available readily. Idahosa walked into the aircraft and requested that a couple of people give up their seats for his guests. No one readily obliged. Idahosa repeated his request and then a young Dangote with his assistant stood up and made to give up their seats. They were the only Muslims on the plane.

Idahosa then stopped Dangote and asked him his names and what he does. Dangote casually mentioned that he is a business man and a trader. There and then, Idahosa prophesied the men will stand up for Dangote worldwide and that his business will grow beyond the shores of Africa. Dangote really didn't think much of it.

As T.L Osbourne and his wife then entered the plane to take up the seats Dangote had left, Idahosa then prayed for everyone on the plane and they all shouted amen. Idahosa found it ridiculous that all the Christians on the plane refused to give up their seats but the only two Muslims did. He then enjoined them to watch his program that comes up every Sunday evening on television and then deboarded the airplane.

Idahosa is long gone but God has fulfilled his word. The world knows Dangote today. None of the Christians on that flight are remembered today.

The debate may be held if Idahosa's prophecy really helped make Dangote who he is today. Dangote himself narrates that story on occasion. But it must not be forgotten that Dangote remains a very avid reader and pursuer of knowledge. By 4:30am most mornings, he is already up and planning for his day. He pays keen attention to details and stays up to date with every information relevant to his field. A hard worker to the core.

Prophesies may help but nothing beats dedication, excellence and commitment to work.

Sadly this things can't be bought, taught or learnt. It is usually inbuilt.

Had a colleague sometimes back, I saw the attribute in him but he himself didn't know. I always knew he was destined for prosperity.
All he took him was a chance meeting with someone very influential.
Today if the man doesn't see him it's almost like his life can't function.
This influential man will be on the ballot of a very popular political party for gubernatorial elections in 2027. And he depends so much on this guy.
Thats just it

I’m a Nigerian and I’ve never heard of it except in movies acted by these religious practicing actors to portray the country bad and white stories about us to make us look bad. Also people like you who believed in those lies because you love their savior.
