TB Joshua foresees this go and clear your empty brain

He also proclaimed the COVID-19 will end on March 27th, 2020 or is it March 27th, 2021/2022/2023/2024/2025?

Why are these miracle working wonders not in the isolation centers in Lagos/Kano/Abuja? Now more than ever they can make people believers by healing the COVID-19 sick but they are not, instead they are in their well stocked mansions tucking into church tithes and offerings and demanding the government reopen churches.

The thriving countries in the world are ATHEISTS, many Nigerians are running to these ATHEISTS countries for a better life and thriving. Nigeria the religion capital of the world is dysfunctional and failing.

I hope post COVID-19, Nigerians open their eyes and stop enriching love-vendor-pastors.

Yes prayer is essential, you can pray in your house after all the church is not the building but people, pray in your house. Here in Italy churches are still on lockdown even with the substantial improvement. What is the problem with black man( women) including political and religious leaders. Are we curse as a people?

Where two or three are gathered God is there. Prayers must not be done in church, church is just a building do not be deceived.

What happened to listening to those words you have in your archives.
All the messages you have heard up till now, are you doing all that is required of you.
What happened to reviewing all your sermon notes and evaluating yourself.
Must you be in church to do all these?

Why do u talk like this? Can God be isolated..? A big no. Lets be wise God resides in our heart and not in d building termed as church. Its just a structure. U and I r d church.
So God can never be quarantined or isolated....
You can Isolate in the decisions you take. You Isolate and Disregard GOD when you don't put Him First in Matters
That's why Provb3 :5-6 admonishes
5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.


Nigeria and Most of the other GOVERNMENT Leaders have Isolated GOD!

Listen, when GOD told Moses to build a place where he will meet with his people, GOD did not make a Mistake

How can anyone isolate God? How many people in the bible received their revelation of God from inside the Temple?

If Covid 19 has done anything. It is has helped us return to the biblical definition of church as where 2 or 3 are gathered in his name. If a pastor has not taught people right, if they need to be in his physical building to contact God, then such a person is in fact working against Christ and his kingdom and the outcome of that is certain.

Be Sincere! When last did u do that!

I don't think you Spend time with GOD Like I do..

I am not sure you pray to GOD like I do..

But in all, it hurts me that The House of GOD is not given it's place in our Nations Affairs!

I might be able to cope due to my personal relationship with GOD But what of others!

Multitude of People are Living Hopelessly and Helplessly! Many living the Earth without JESUS CHRIST!

Seriously, if you were at Balogun market yesterday, you would understand the fact that the partial lockdown is meaningless. Absolutely meaningless!

Left that market at 3:30pm. Got to my destination (in the same Lagos state) at exactly 8:45pm. The traffic was crazy. The only thing that made sense in my view is the use of face masks. At least, 70% of the people had face mask.

If the church can enforce the use of face masks, hand sanitizers and temperature check, then the government should simply go ahead and lift the lockdown. It is absolutely meaningless keeping some industries and sectors inactive.

don't be deceived, no church will ever observe social distancing, its the same lawless Nigerians that go to church and not spirits

It's not About the Physical buildings...
It's About our Decision as a Nation...

When you put out GOD as a Nation or individual , it's Dangerous! It's invitation to open gates and doors to the Enemy!!

you can stay in your house and pray and your prayer would be answer, but you can not survive without going to the market to get food stuff to feed yourself and your family, the only thing this yeye man know is money and the only language he understand is tithe.

emmasege:
There are alternatives to 'church gathering' as individuals can still meet at family or house fellowship level. But there is no alternative to going to market. People must feed.

Abi Bishop will feed his flock (tens of thousands) with physical food after feeding them with spiritual food? Jesus did it, Bishop should also do it.

Bishop Oyedepo should announce free lunch for all worshippers on Sunday with an additional #5000 pocket money for indingent worshippers every Sunday.

And let no pastor sermonise worshippers to give. The giving should be voluntary and the poor should not be made to feel as if they sinned by not giving or that they are blocking their source of blessings by not paying tithe.

The gospel has gone beyond the elementary doctrines of tithing, giving and prosperity.




God bless you.
The true church is now not those socioeconomic gatherings.

Exactly, how can they allow people for 6 Hours in Market and not allow them for two hours in church


There is difference people are self conscious in the market and can be there for as long or short to their specific needs but church is not like that, mind you the church is not a worldly organisation that are competing for relevance the real church is glorified in the so-called isolation.

People can do without 'perishables'. In place of meat ,eggs, in place of fresh fish, dried fish. Alternatively people could also dry meat.

Vegetables and fruits nko?

Yes, Nigeria happens to be poor but with a plan, everyone in this country can recieve 100 to 200k from the state.

What is a plan without adequate funding? We didn't capture health spendings in our budget, and with oil crisis ahead, all we accumulate will be used to service debts, while we will be borrowing to pay salaries. And yet, you are thinking beyond this constraint.

The state can commercialise some of her strategic assets post covid-19.

Post Covid-19. But we don't even know when that would be.

At the moment, Nigeria should be spending her way out of this crisis. Consuming things that are locally made. We can afford anything as long as they are locally manufactured. That should be the principle guiding Nigeria's response.

This was already happening before Covid-19.


Countries that fail to spend now in a bid to sustain their economy will reap the bitter pill in no distant time.

But the country is spending.

No one is under any illusion that Nigeria is rich but Nigeria has to spend strategically and aggressively if it has to break the chain of poverty.

We are doing this as well.

If I was running the show I would be talking about 40 to 100 billion USD in spending for this fiscal year.


Easier said than done.

Its Christians that are the problem of the country. so market is more important than God word?, if the market can be crowded for 6 hours without any fear for the covid 19, why can't we hear and fellowship in the church for 2 hours.
when trouble comes you say God help me, whereas you don't believe in or hearing from God word.
