“My mother in the Lord went home two nights ago, Betty Lasher. I sobbed. I rose and wrote a poem, 53 years ago she changed my life. I spoke to her last month. You said you are too fast, I am not hearing you too well.
“I sensed in my spirit, that her time had come. Her aide had to talk to me and tell it to her one by one. She went upstairs like a saint. She was 92 on her last birthday. Let me give you a clip, Sweet Mother, Sweet Savour, Sweet Memory."
Lasher is in her mansion
The man of God expressed certainty that his deceased mentor is now in her mansion in heaven wearing a crown for all her labours, adding that whoever is saved in his ministry will be credited to her account.
His words:
“If I don’t know anything, I know sweet mommy is in her mansion. I know she has a crown right now because if I wasn’t saved, I won’t be in ministry. Whatever people got saved here will also be credited to her account. That is what happens to people you are leading to Christ."
"I belong to superior cult, I'm richest pastor on earth", Oyedepo boasts
Meanwhile, Oyedepo had claimed that he is the richest pastor in the world.
Oyedepo on Friday, August 12, during the International Youth Alive Convention 2022 held in Ogun state, also boasted that he belongs to a superior cult that is above all other principalities and powers on earth.
He admonished his congregation that it is Christians' undying love and devotion to God that seals their dominion on earth.
