I Have Never Cornered Church Funds – Bishop Oyedepo Discloses Source Of His Wealth
The general overseer of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, David Oyedepo, has said that he has never misappropriated church funds.
He stated this while sharing spiritual insights with his congregants on Sunday.
The clergyman emphasized how believers can ensure sufficient supplies and receive answers to their needs through faith.
During his sermon, titled “The Bible: A Most Reliable Guide to Life,” Oyedepo highlighted the importance of relying on God’s words to solve life’s problems.
He stated that his family has never prayed for food supplies.
Oyedepo disclosed that God is the source of his wealth.
He said, “Every sincere question has an answer with Jesus.
“Who pays me? Suddenly the word came—after these things, He appointed seventy others also, and the laborer is worthy of his wages. So He said to me, ‘You are in my employment; I am responsible. Just stay on duty, the light of life.’ Since then, I have not looked for who pays me until tomorrow and until I go to heaven.”
He referred to Luke 10:7, displayed on the church’s monitoring screen: “Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you, for the worker deserves his wages. Do not move around from house to house.”
“I have never prayed for what to eat in my family. The light of life, the five loaves, and two fishes were more than enough. I have never cornered church money of one naira to my side, the light of life,” he said.
Oyedepo also addressed church growth, sharing insights from a book titled “Reach Out for the Light.” He mentioned four key points that can help grow a church even in challenging environments, encouraging the congregation to seek the light of life.
Quoting John 6:63, he concluded, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”
