The only church there was the Catholic church.

No Pentecostal church survived there.

The church began to grow in leaps and bounds, and God confirmed the word with signs and wonders following.

I had some pastor friends from same church but different districts. We usually visited each others churches for revival.

My problem started immediately they noticed the grace of God upon my life and envy set in.

I had a young landlord whose mother was the queen of the witchcraft kingdom in the community.

She did everything to frustrate me but failed.

I prophesied to this young landlord and told him, he would be the next LCGA deputy chairman, and before you know he was nominated.

One day he came to me for prayers, I was so inexperienced and I opened up to him and told him, his own mother was the queen of the witchcraft kingdom.

He went to his mother and that was how my problem started.

She turned him against me, he eventually lost that sit as the deputy chairman and was replaced.

This young landlord ganged up against me and told my members that the reason I didn't use to collect gift from them was because I suspected them of witchcraft,but it was a lie, I actually refused to take gift from anyone as instructed by the Spirit from Exodus 23:8.

He and those envious pastors with some of my members that were once loyal to me, whom God had blessed through my ministry ganged up and disgraced me out of the church.

This were people who had been healed of HIV, diabetes, broken marriage, e.t.c.

I packed my luggage and went back home.

I got home and wanted to enrol in several Bible schools, but the Spirit forbade me.


I registered in a foreign Bible school, but it bounced and didn't go through. The Spirit then led me to Job 36:22 and also Galatians 1, and told me He was going to train me Himself, because of my call.

That was when I went into the 8 years fasting and that's why I normally tell people that I was taught 90% of what I know today, by the Holy Ghost.

After I joined another ministry but didn't last more than few months.

Every where I went I saw fiery persecution,tempations, trials, betrayal, heavy rejection, this is one of the reasons I don't really have a friend, e.t.c.

I can't state the things I've been through cos it will seem like exaggeration.

I went into business and made loads od money as a business man.


2 pastors came to me and told me to join their ministry, but I declined.

A young pastor started coming to me for counseling and later pleaded with me to join and help him build his ministry, the Spirit permitted me and I joined him

The church started growing, we moved out to a better place and even started running 2 services.

The members loved me so much, after 2 years, God told me my time was up.

I refused to leave and I was struck with low blood pressure, i still didn't leave.
I did a wrong business and lost 7.5million.
I still didn't leave, then the low blood pressure came a second time.

4 of the members told me, they had a revelation that I died.

God then told me that if I don't leave, I would die and my ministry will be handed to someone else.

I submitted to God's will and ran for my dear life.

God told me my time was drawing near, but that the moment my time comes, He will direct me to the pastor of one of the mega Churches, whom I'll serve under for a very short spell, before starting on my own.


He said it was necessary I served under someone of repute for a short while, no matter how short, cos if I don't my ministry will have a lot of question marks.


I've been waiting for this , but I'm yet to receive a signal.

This is why I don't have anyone I can really call father in the Lord yet, but I have a lot of great men of God I admire.

I intentionally didn't name any Church

Hope you understand now.

Paul didn't have anyone as a father in the Lord, for he received the gospel he preached by revelation, but it came to a point in his ministry that he was led by the Spirit of God, to go identify with those that had gone before him.

Galatians 2:2- And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.

If he didn't do this, his ministry would have had question marks, not because he needed their validation , but it made his gospel more acceptable and he ended up not running in vain.

Important to know that occult people too bless things in names of dark beings before consuming them.

Some believers avoid blessed substances like anointing oil and holy communion. These are normal everyday substances and the main difference between the occult version and Kingdom of God one is the names in which they are blessed. That's why you have to test all spirits.
Your faith is needed for the good one but the bad one only needs them to subdue your flesh to sensitize it to those evil spirit beings and things.

Even Jesus gave the his disciples fruit juice after blessing it and called it His blood.


He gave them WINE.

It was indeed wine that the LORD Jesus drank with his deciples. Wine and food are not abominations but drunkenness and gluttony are, Speaking is not evil but cursing is, jokes are not bad but foolish jesting is.....

You appear even more unstable than the other moniker.
If you find nothing out of place in someone coming in here and concluding it is alcoholic wine just because 'people' keep saying it is fruit juice, then you are more unstable.

Throwing insults won't get you far my friend. It is clearly stated in the scriptures that the wine they took right from the time of Noah made men drunk. Only alcoholic wines produce such effects. Why are some(you) christians against alcoholic drinks?

You shouldn't have come at me with another account and indirectly by replying me that "He gave them WINE."

To further prove your low level of reasoning, you are now shifting focus entirely by asking me about why some(me) Christians are against alcoholic drinks?

I won't answer you for you are not straightforward.

But for the sake of onlookers looking to learn. Mathews 26:29 clearly refers to vine and not wine, and from English we know that vine is about fruits and not alcohol.


Matthew 26:29
But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

Vine is the plant, grapevine(grape) is the fruit. Grapes are used to make wine. You can look it up.

I didn't really want to answer your question here, but will do.

1- Every true ministers salvation must be verified, but not everyone must have a father in the Lord or a direct authority above him, Paul was a clear example of this.

2- I wish I had a father in the Lord growing up as a Christian, cos it would have made a lot of things easier for me.

3- My race as a Christian has been somehow strange.

Oh no. Is it all now already all over? So you've had enough and quitting with a "Kk", hmm?

I guess CodeTemplar was right then about you not being straightforward. Seems you're not sure about the bible's complete/full stance on alcohol and thats why you got things conflated and mixed up.

We know that Jesus turned water into wine but when it came to Him commanding us about re-enacting the Holy Communion, He deliberately opted for fruit juice or fruit of the vine, in being used, to do this. Of course, Jesus offered His disciples fruit juice during the first Holy Communion, but He never at any time, commanded against drinking alcohol, nor was He against consumption of alcohol, and this is evidenced when He turned water to wine (i.e. "oinos", Greek usual word that means intoxicating wine, that's obviously fermented/alcoholic)

Personally, I dont necessarily drink alcohol, this is not because of any doctrine per se, but truly the reason is, I have the right to do anything but not everything really is that beneficial to me, besides I am more of a social drinker than a habitual one anyway.

When Paul was advising Timothy about dealing with his health issues, it wasnt fruit juice Paul was advising Timothy to take drink for it

The aftermath of the abuse and/or misuse of wine/alcohol is unbecoming. Drunkenness and addiction to wine/alcohol is a behaviour not fitting or appropriate for any son/daughter of God. Ephesians 5:18 reproduced above, is very informative and a useful verse concerning the preferred state of being drunk and preferred sort of intoxication.

My brother, all wines are alcoholic. The difference between old wine (strong drink) and new wine is just the alcoholic content. Freshly tapped palm wine is still alcoholic but not as much as the old one (fermented).
It was never stated that it's wrong to consume alcoholic beverages once one accepts Christ.

Not all wines are alcoholic.

Proverbs 31:6 - Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.

Proverbs 20:1- Wine is a mocker, string drink is raging , and Whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.

These are scripture references.
