By Babatunji Wusu

Founder and presiding bishop of Living Faith Church Worldwide, David Oyedepo, has shared powerful testimonies during a recent church service, recalling past incidents involving Kidnappings  linked to members of his ministry. The respected cleric used these accounts to strengthen faith and reassure believers of divine protection.

Speaking on one such case, he explained how a pastor was abducted and how he responded firmly. He said he instructed that his contact be passed to the abductors, issuing a direct warning. In his words: “One time one of our pastor was carried by Kidnappers , i said give them the phone and told them in 24 hours if you don’t check him out you are dead. The place was vibrating on a spot and was released”.

The Oyedepo testimony continued as he stressed his confidence in divine backing, adding: ”If anybody picks you, give them my number. If he is not cut down then I am not God sent”.

In another account, he narrated how one of his daughters was also Kidnappers . According to him, she boldly told her captors that her release had already been declared. He shared: “Another time to one of those my daughter was captured somewhere and she told them my father said I am getting out of here latest 7am. And I didn’t even speak with them, that was how they started cutting themselves (the Kidnappers ) and told her to start going”.

Through the Oyedepo testimony, he urged Christians to remain fearless and resist oppression, reminding them that they are “raised far above the devil.”
