David Oyedekpo Of The LFC Announces His Retirement - WINNERS CHAPEL SPEAKS ON BISHOP DAVID OYEDEPO’S RETIREMENT

The Living Faith Church Worldwide, also known as Winners Chapel, has denied rumours that the founder of the church, Bishop David Oyedepo, was set to retire from active service.


Reports on Friday had claimed that Oyedepo’s eldest son, David Jnr, who presides over the branch of the church in London, United Kingdom, was to be named the resident pastor of Canaanland, the church’s headquarters in Ota, Ogun State on January 10,2016 which will see him overseeing the activities of the Church worldwide.

But the Church’s Mandate Secretary, Pastor Yemi Nathaniel, has debunked such reports labelling them as false.

According to him:

"Every apostolic ministry like ours is a priestly commission and because priesthood is for a lifetime, his (Oyedepo) presidency and priesthood is for a lifetime. Moses, Joshua, Aaron ministered and his son also did; Elijah, Elisha and Paul, among others. Therefore any online publication purporting his retirement is false.

For those interested, the Red Book, The Mandate, explains our succession plan. The good news of generational success as promised by God for the righteous must be causing pains for the ignorant, the envious and the wicked. Refuse to be a part of propagating evil"
