"No TRUE man or woman of God charges money for prayers! That is the major sign to identify the FAKE ones. Jesus Christ said to His disciples "freely you have received, and freely you shall give".
Peter Augus Tine said
"The moment anybody charges you for prayers, run , it's fake, its a scam , it's a ripoff, never pay anybody or sow seed or support any ministry with your money in exchange for healing prayers, especially before you have received healing."
Oluchi Okechukwu said:
"We catholic people no they pay money but any day I enter pastor or prophet church and you will ask me to pay money, you will not see me again in your church, every Sunday I they enter my church to pray to my God."
Dennis Ka Ezeh said:
"Jenny, that's a fake church. Pls take out time and study the healings in the bible. Find a scripture. Eg, " Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses" (Matthew 8:17) Meditate on them regularly and speak it to yourself constantly. When your faith comes alive , i assure you, you would be healed. You can also follow Dunamis International Gospel Centre healing and deliverance service on tuesdays 10am on YouTube or Facebook."

Pst Chinonso James said:
"My sister, it's not enough to stop fellowship unless you don't know God for yourself. You guys knows that there are wolves, quacks, fakes and impostors in every sphere of life. Don't generalise a falsehood and malpractice. Genuinely called and trained shepherds does not charge for prayers. You people don't like genuine ones hence always falling prey to vandals.
