We’ll build a better, more glorious one – Pastor Chris Oyakhilome
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, founder of Christ Embassy, has turned a seemingly tragic event into an opportunity for optimism and growth. In the wake of the church headquarters catching fire, Pastor Chris addressed the congregation at the Asese campground and presented the incident as a chance for the church to build a bigger, better, and more glorious headquarters. He expressed a strong belief that the fire was not an accident but rather a catalyst for future success.
He said, “Nothing happens in the life of a child of God by accident. During the 2001 Ikeja cantonment bombing incident, the building vibrated so much and we thought it was going to collapse. I thought to myself that if it collapsed I was going to build a bigger, better one. At the end of the day it didn’t collapse and we called the engineers to see if there was any need to bring it down and rebuild but it was still okay.
“Now that this has happened, we will build a bigger, better, and more glorious one and the devil will lick his wound.”
