Nigerian preacher and founder of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo, has sparked a strong reaction on social media after stating that, contrary to popular belief, God bought his aircraft for him and not through church offerings.
The cleric recently revealed that he miraculously acquired the aircraft from God, rather than speculations that it was purchased with church funds.
Bishop David Oyedepo asserted that the acquisition of the aircraft was a divine process that was hard to understand. He emphasized that God had bought and delivered it without any prior notice or preparation.
He said, “He (God) bought the first aircraft without any prayer, without any idea that the aircraft was coming. He said it, he delivered it nobody had any pressure on his life. There was no pressure on the offering
The offering didn’t buy it oo! God bought it. There was person contacted under heaven. No! God said it and I believe it and that settles it.
It wasn’t an ambition, it was a unveiled divine agenda. If God asked me David, when do you want that aircraft to be bought j would have said “God take it easy, take it easy, we are not near ready. Aircraft?”
Okay, let me find out first how much they sell it, he didn’t give us the room to find out.
Not the aircraft that would go from here to Ilorin or Ogbomosho, we travel the whole of Africa with the aircraft.”
Social media users responded to Bishop David Oyedepo's statement by sharing a range of viewpoints. Some joked that they were present when God purchased the plane for him. Others were shocked that God would purchase planes for the cleric but not for the members.
