The founder of LoveWorld Incorporated, popularly known as Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, stated on Sunday that the fire incident at the church’s headquarters was not an accident but an opportunity for bigger and better things.
He made this statement during a live Sunday service at the church’s campground in Asese.
The men of the Lagos Fire Service were already on the scene to manage the situation at the time of this report, and no lives were reported lost.
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome stated that the church would build a bigger, better, and more glorious structure following the fire incident.
He said, “Nothing happens in the life of a child of God by accident. During the 2001 Ikeja cantonment bombing incident, the building vibrated so much and we thought it was going to collapse. I thought to myself that if it collapsed, I was going to build a bigger, better one. At the end of the day, it didn’t collapse and we called the engineers to see if there was any need to bring it down and rebuild but it was still okay.
“Now that this has happened, we will build a bigger, better, and more glorious one, and the devil will lick his wound.”
