EXPRESS MULTIMEDIA GROUP IN LAGOS,NIGERIA TAKES UP THE WARRIOR OF CHRIST ON
SEVERAL ISSUES RANGING FROM CHURCH GROWTH,POLITICS IN THE CHURCH,HIS ODDYSEY AS
A SERVANT OF GOD THROUGH THE VARIOUS MINISTRIES HE HAS PASTORED OVER THE YEARS
HOW DO YOU FEEL AT 53 YEARS OF AGE ,SIR?
I feel very great about the faithfulness of God upon of good
health ,for the protective hedge he has placed over me and my family members.
Since i started my ministry i have never buried anybody in my ministry
since i started the journey about three years
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE GROWING SUCCESS STORIES OF ONE OF
YOUR SONS IN THE LORD,ABDULMUMINI ADEKU?
His life is a remarkable story which has not even ended as
more success are on the way for him ,i thank God that my son in the lord
:Abdulmumini ireyi Adeku has been listening to my counsel and prayers and am
not in anyway surprised at what he has been doing professionally on his job because
we saw it coming.
He was a member of my church at Mountain Of Fire and when i
left to start up my own ministries he had followed me right from inception so am really very happy that our spiritual
intervention in his life at some point is yielding a lot of dividends.
HOW DID YOU BECOME A CHRISTAIN IN THE FIRST PLACE?
Actually,i was born into a Muslim background and i was
practicing the faith like everyone else around me as i observed the five daily
prayers as expected of a Muslim spiritually.
However ,i thnk my trip to Christainity started due to a
spiritual attack i had in a dream of somebody i do not know giving me something
bad to eat and from then on wards i started having a feeling of something
moving on the inside of my head like a lizard
and this happened sometimes in 1980 and at the time i was living at
Taoreed Street in Animashawun area of
Surulere ,Lagos,Nigeria
I joined the Celestial Church for prayers so as to find a
solution to the crisis and i was
attending the Celestial Church , Adelabu Parish in Surulere where they gave me
several green water to drink with the aim of using this to stop the attack but
to no avail.
When Baba Oshoffa was still alive i was at Imeko in 1983 to
visit him with the hope of seeing him so that he can pray for me and lay his
hands on me for special prayers on the spiritual attack that tormented me but i could not see him due to the enormous
crowd at the time all waiting to see the man of God.
Somebody however preached to me about Christ and he told me that Jesus can heal me and
that he can deliver me if i wanted to be delivered from going to hell and
eternal condemnation .
So he told me that he was a member of The Deeper Life
Christian Church and this was around
July,1983 and at the time Pastor Williams Kumuyi was teaching them on the Book
of Daniel.
So after this i went to meet my friend and enquired from him whether he discussed me
with Kumuyi as the man virtually preached about me in his message when i
attended the programme and to this he had readily replied :no to my questions
as he had told me that even Daddy Kumuyi did not know him on an individual
basis let alone will he have had the chance to discuss me with the servant of
God.
There was a particular program held in April,1984 at the
Ayoobo Camp of the Deeper LIfe Christian Church, titled :he shed his Blood and
a particular brethren called Brother Nnadozie preached a message that day on
the even of April,14,1984 ,that has left an indelible mark on my memories.
i will never forget that day as the man's messages virtually
helped in no small way to preaching me into accepting Jesus Christ as my lord
and personal savior and till date i have never looked back.
The moment i accepted Christ i did not recall the attacks
anymore until after six months later and even after that i did not feel it
again and this was how i became a
Christian..
HOW DID YOU GROW IN THE MINISTRIES YOU WORKED FOR?
The moment i gave up my entire life to Jesus Christ i
immediately took on the job of a career gospel Evangelist ,i became very crazy
for Jesus and i was known all over the
major streets of Lagos, Nigeria for my notoriety as far as the issue of Jesus was concerned.
i became very popular for preaching in commercial buses at
the time and this was in the 1980s and i was still living at Dopemu area of
Lagos at the time and i had the habit of
going to the Deeper Life Church to buy literatures like tracts with my own
money and as i preached inside buses i
will also use the same process to distribute the same while also using the platform
to preach the gospel simultaneously .
I used to go from Dopemu to Oshodi to MIle 2 ,Orile
Iganmu,C.M.S,Obalende,Oyingbo,Ketu,Ikorodum and then back to Oshodi and finally
Dopemu inside commercial busus and just preaching the word of God non-stop at the
time.
i was doing this on a daily basis as i became an anointed
evangelist as people i run into in
several places kept reminding me that they had seen my face in some buses or
the other preaching the word of God.
Am a printer by profession and because i was so zealous with
my gospel work i had to resign where i was working so that i can join the
printing division of The Deeper Life Church and at the time it was called the
Zoe Press but today it is called the Life Press.
In those days you did not need to do a Bible before you became a Pastor and this was how it was at The
Deeper Life Church because Monday Bible studies alone if followed meticulously was enough for a man to grow and
even go on to become a Pastor.
Altogether i spent Nine years in Deeper Life before i left as i was already on fire for the
Lord at the time.
So when i travelled to Kano to go and work while looking for
greener pastures ,i had joined hands with Bishop Ransome Bello:who had just
left Deeper Life to start up his own ministries to be called Calvary Life
Assembly Church .
So one day i was sleeping in the church and i heard a voice
from heaven telling me that if i do not do his work then i should be prepared
for failure.
so i now answered the call as i went to inform Bishop
Bello that this was what God was saying
to me .
He now posted me to one of his church branches in Idah ,then
in Benue state though it is now in Kogi state due to boundary adjustments as a
result of state creation .
The Pastor in Charge of the Idah branch Church of the
Calvary LIfe Assembly Church at the time was called Pastor Joseph Ojiah while i
served as his assistant at the time in history.
This gave me the chance to preach for the first time in my
life before a mammoth congregation aside from a bus situation and i was later asked which of the Bible
school i had gone to for me to have been able to preach the word of God and so i told them that all i did for them
was what i had learnt under Baba Kumuyi's leading at monday Bible study class in Deeper Life church at the time and
nothing more.
So when i now returned to Lagos in 1994 i heard of Mountain
of Fire and Miracles Ministries of Dr D.K. Olukoya .
So i came to the services and visited the church in 1995 ,i
was stunned when i saw the man of God preach the word of God and it
was as if i had never heard of teh word of God before in my entire life as it
came refreshed
