“I have never prayed for what to eat in my family. The light of life, the five loaves, and two fishes were more than enough. I have never cornered church money of one naira to my side, the light of life.”
Oyedepo referred to Luke 10:7, stating that every sincere question has an answer with Jesus.”
“Who pays me? Suddenly the word came—after these things, He appointed seventy others also, and the labourer is worthy of his wages. So He said to me, ‘You are in my employment; I am responsible. Just stay on duty, the light of life.’ Since then, I have not looked for who pays me until tomorrow and until I go to heaven.”
