“Nothing Happens Without God,” Oyakhilome Says Of Fire Incident That Gutted His Church

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, President and Founder of LoveWorld Incorporated, also known as Christ Embassy, has promised that the Church will build a better edifice to replace the one gutted by fire on Sunday.

The popular Pentecostal Church was razed by fire in the early hours of today, and prominent Nigerians have expressed their shock over the incident.

“Noting happens” without God, the popular Pastor said.

It is too early to know the cause of the incident, but

the 2023 Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi, obviously shocked at the incident, has called on Security Agencies to investigate what led to the fire outbreak in the Church.

In his first reaction, Pastor Oyakhilome said the fire  was a divine occurrence, because it’s a sign of a bigger thing to come for the Church.

Oyakhilome, who spoke at the Church’s Headquarters in Lagos stated that the accident could not have happened without God knowing about it.

According to him, the Church was already planning to build a befitting edifice in case of any collapse.

The popular Man of God, MOsaid, “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.”

Meanwhile, the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, LSFRS, has announced that the fire has since been extinguished.
