An evangelist, Benita Okeke has called out popular fashion designer, Veekee James, following her claims that she got divine inspiration to create the wedding dress for the new bride, Priscilla Ojo

Recall that Veekee James, in a post on her Instagram page, mentioned she got the inspiration to design the dress from the Holy Spirit, attributing the creative process to the divine.

The video showing the behind-the-scenes moment has generated several reactions on social media.

Among the critics was Evangelist Benita Okeke, who voiced her disapproval through a video posted on Instagram.

In the video, Evangelist Okeke questioned the spiritual legitimacy of such an inspiration, arguing that the dress—being revealing—did not align with Christian standards of modesty.

“The dress wasn’t modest,” she stated. “Can the Holy Spirit truly lead someone to design something that doesn’t reflect decency? If we say the Holy Spirit inspired this, are we not encouraging indecency under the guise of spirituality?”

She emphasized that Christian teachings promote modesty and that any message or inspiration that contradicts this principle should be carefully questioned. “The nature of God is not one that supports revealing attire, especially something you wouldn’t even wear to church,” she added.

Evangelist Okeke further warned against assuming every creative spark or idea comes from a divine source. “Even as believers, not all inspiration we receive comes from God. Sometimes, our thoughts, emotions, or personal desires can influence us,” she concluded.
