Why are there so many rich people in Winners?Because they know better than their contemporaries. If you don’t know what you have, you won’t know if you are deprived of it. The Bible is an open chequebook, it is by revelation we access what belongs to us; by faith we take delivery of it. Someone had access to our empowerment programme and she is a pepper seller, while others sell one basket a day, she sells six, seven. I learnt she had become the envy of all the pepper sellers in her area. Such person has an understanding that whatever she does, she prospers and she knows that when she pays her tithe, she experiences open heavens. But in case people don’t know, they perish for lack of knowledge, and in case they think when you are rich you miss heaven, then they perish for lack of knowledge.
So, it’s right when people claim that this church is only for the rich?
It’s for all the people who believe that
Jesus already paid for them to be rich. And those who don’t believe,
when they come they start believing when they see it happen in a lot of
people’s lives. And we are not ashamed to be called the church of the
rich. If they call your family poor, will you be excited? Nobody would
be excited. Even when a family is poor, they hate to be called poor. No
man in his right mind enjoys being called poor, and nobody truly wants
to be poor, people may pretend. Which is more honourable between being a
giver and a beggar? Most of us came in very poor, but the light of
God’s word came on us and we walked out of poverty in grand style into
wealth and riches.
How come there is such wealth in the church despite the poverty in the nation?
The kingdom of God is funded by God’s
resources. We are not funded by the economy of the world, but by the
economy of the kingdom, which has a budget for all of its agenda on
earth. We’ve been here since 1999 and we have never had power outage or
water shortage. The main players are Nigerians, the builders are
Nigerians. There is no building here that any foreign expert took part
in. There is no foreign company’s presence here, including the
tabernacle. Some of the revered foreign companies here in Nigeria are
technicians in Germany, and they are all political contractors, not that
they have something special to offer.
