In my early ministry, three days to 9/11 in 2001, I preached in Europe and I preached about the end time. I said America is the Sodom and Gomorrah of our time because of three things. In America men marry men and women marry women.

In February that year, there was a church in California, 450 burnt themselves to death. I said America accommodates a church of Satan in which Bill Gate is a member. I said for these three things, America is Sodom and Gomorrah of our time. And I told them to be prepared. I went to sleep.

Before I started that message, opposite the church there was a club and they had all the instruments, but the church where I preached didn't have any of those instruments. I got a list of instruments and promised I would get the instruments for them. Nothing happened for about two months after I came back from the trip, I was looking for money to buy the instruments for the church. And God did it miraculously.

In November, people were now chasing me for a land I could not get a buyer for. And I was able to sell the land for N10 million.

By the middle of November, I got the cheque that was how I got all money to buy the instrument for the Congolese. I went to the Congolese Ambassador and told him that I had bought some instruments for his people and I would not pay to export the instruments. He invited me for launch. As I got to his house he introduced me to a man who was the General Manager of their airline. That was how I was able to send those instruments to Congo .

I wanted to commit suicide
I used to be in an orthodox church. I was a practicing one. I was a real socialite. At the age of 30 I have had about three different titles. Being in the Orthodox Church, I never missed church even when I went to party a night before. But Jesus arrested me in 1991.

Pastor Gabriel Oduyemi
Initially it changed my impression about Pastor Oduyemi but later I had to forgive because I later realized that God used him to strengthen my faith. I traveled to more than 20 countries with him and I can tell you that he has great anointing upon his life when preaching outside. I think he would have been much more effective if he was an evangelist. When I was with him, I told him and many pastors also told him that he should concentrate on evangelism rather than pastoring a church.

Mission needs
The pygmies need a lot: Classrooms, boreholes, teachers and a whole lot of things. Nigerian churches do not have what it takes to spearhead missions. It takes a lot of perseverance and a lot of patience. During my visit to Yongi Cho's church in South Korea , there is a place where they pray and you can be there for a whole year praying. You just pray and come down to eat. As an evangelist you must have to make do with whatever you meet in places you go. For two weeks in Congo I could not use new blade to shave because my body had become something else.

If you are not empowered spiritually, you could be carried out dead in those countries. What we do on the field is that we take possession of the strong man in any country we go. Every country has a strongman. You have to take the strongman and bind him.

There was a time in Kinshasa , 2004 we finished about 10.30 in the night. And I found out that the owner of the church was possessed. By 12 midnight I wanted to take my bath to start praying. In the bath I was dumbfounded. I was oppressed. I started praying and communicating in the Holy Spirit. The next day I went to the woman and I told her never to try what she did the previous night.
