People looking up and down for what God has already given.

Once you have Jesus, you have power already you just need to discipline yourself with fasting so that pride, doubt, etc will not ruin you and so that you won't get into the skirt or trousers of every church member. grin

You don't fast for power to cast out devils, you have that one already, fasting is for power to live above flesh.

Lack of knowledge is Christians major enemy!

RIP to the dead

MrTrend:

Tragedy has struck the community of Eziala Nguru in Ngor Okpala Council area of Imo state as Evangelist Chidi Eke, aged 46 years had died while trying to fast for 40 days and Nights.

Sunday Sun reliably gathered that the deceased who had abandoned his wife and two children in Lagos and went back to the village had some times last year said to have embarked on evangelism.

It was gathered that the deceased had announced that he wants to start his ministry but that before he does that he would have to obtain power from God.

It was learnt that Eke having initially fasted for 21 days successfully decided to embark on 40 days and 40 nights dry fast.

According to sources in the community, “During the first and second week of his fast people who had gone to their farms heard him singing and praying loudly, but after the third week nobody heard his voice again and most people thought that perhaps he must have gone spiritual”.

It was learnt that it was not until one of his members, Cyriacus Opara who became worried and insisted that he needed to visit him at the “Wilderness”.

“When Cyriacus Opara who is a member of his church approached the family that he wanted to visit Chidi Eke at the “Wilderness”. They told him that they don’t know the exact location where he is and that Chidi Eke had earlier issued a stern warning that he does not want any visitors because he had left his phone and money at home and had only gone with his Bible and gown”.

The family members it was learnt had directed Cyriacus Opara to one Cajethan Nwaneri as the only person who knew the location of the “Wilderness” since he had assisted the deceased evangelist in clearing it.

According to Cajethan Duke, one of the relations of the deceased said it was Cajethan Nwaneri who had directed Cyriacus Opara to the location and when he got to the place he discovered that Chidi Eke had long died as his body was already decomposing and immediately raised the alarm.

He said, “ Chidi Eke had abandoned his wife and two children a boy and girl in Lagos and returned to the village saying that he has come to answer the call of God. His corpse was discovered on October 6 by one of his members who had gone to check on him in the bush where he had gone to fast for 40 days and 40 nights.

Chidi Eke is the only son of his mother, In fact, it was members of the community under the leadership of Tochukwu Ekeh (Aged 90) who bore the burden of burying him.”

It was learnt that as a result of the unfortunate incident the community has henceforth banned people from fasting and praying inside the bush and that if they must fast and pray it must be in their own homes.

I find it funny.... after not hearing him the farmers thought he had gone spiritual!
I thought God told people to pray privately...just between you and Him... make no show of it... but here is this one shouting for all to hear... I wonder if ehmmm.... let me shut up.

Lazy man. God didn't call him, he's actually trying to whine God to see if baba God will call him. If God calls you, get the power freely. My condolences to his wife.

Ye shall receive power when the Holy Ghost shall come upon you, not when you fast for 40days! What Jesus had done for us already some people still wants to do for themselves! Too bad.

There's nobody like Jesus, that's the point. The age of signs and wonders is over already, He has ascended! Spiritual activity then is not the same as it is now.

Just because he called himself a pastor it doesn't mean he necessarily knew what he was doing. Anybody can wake up and call themselves a pastor.

Didn't you see the part of the story where he abandoned his family to become a so-called "pastor"? Does that sound like Christ-like behaviour to you

I'm not being fickle, I'm just saying that circumstances at times determine what we choose to do. We are still living in a world governed by natural laws; if you don't drink water, you will die, simple.

Icon79:
False doctrine!

The age of signs and wonders is not over. Run away from any Church that teaches you that false doctrine because it is not biblical.

O pari


I just want to ask: Do u guys use same Bible?

How can God call you after you abandon your wife and kids? (Read 1 Timothy 5:8, Galatians 1:8,9)

People should learn to add wisdom to their knowledge..his body must have warned him repeatedly and yet he refused to listen ..People must understand that God use their body to speak to them. He use their children,wives and close associates to speak to them .Refusal to know this can lead to danger
