Bishop David Oyedepo
of Winners Chapel has criticised the reopening of markets while Churches remain
closed in Nigeria.
As part of measures
to stop the spread of coronavirus virus, the Nigerian government banned
religious gatherings till further notice.
However, Oyedepo on
Wednesday morning during the Covenant Hour of Prayer programme of the Church
held at its headquarters in Otta, Ogun State, broadcast live to members, said
the continuous closure of churches was suspicious.
According to him,
the Lord revealed to him that it was part of moves to stop the church of God
from expanding.
“I can smell a rat
behind the closure of Churches. The Lord spoke to me about it. It’s part of
moves to stop the Church from spreading.
“How do you have the
markets open and the Churches remain closed? Which one is more organized.
“The devil is surely
targeting the people, but God’s words says I shall build my Church and the gates
of hell shall not prevail.
“Any gang up against
the Church shall surely fail. The devil and his agents shall surely pay for
this,” the Bishop stated.
He added that it was
not acceptable that Churches where people get saved and healed were closed.
“It’s wrong to
continue to have the Churches closed. This is an upside down way of looking at
things.
“I declare that the
world is free and the nations are liberated from continuous lockdown,” Oyedepo
added.
