Oyedepo Speaks On Closure Of Churches Amid COVID-19 Pandemic, Says “I Smell A Rat”

Presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church Worldwide, also known as Winners’ Chapel International, David Oyedepo, says he believes there is a plot to stop the growth of the church in the country.

Speaking on Wednesday during the Covenant Hour of Prayer Programme, Oyedepo questioned the continuous closure of churches over the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

The preacher said he did not see reasons why churches should not be opened for two hours if markets could be opened for six hours.

His statement toed the line of the President of LoveWorld Incorporated, also known as Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, who recently criticised pastors for shutting down churches without asking the government for time to pray.

“There is something wrong; for people to be allowed to be in the market for six hours and can’t be in church for two hours, it is an upside-down way of looking at things,” Oyedepo said.

“Which one is more orderly? The market or the church?

“I can smell a rat. The Lord spoke to me on it so strong yesterday. I can smell a rat. Behind all this, how do we stop the church from exploding? The people involved don’t know it.

“The voice of darkness is influencing people at various levels, targeting the church because the growth and expansion of the church is the greatest headache of the devil. But the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. The devil and all his agents shall surely pay for this.

“I don’t know what hospital that records the kind of healings that the church of God records. And now hospitals, where people die every day, are open, but the church is closed because the oppression of the devil has no medical cure.”
