Presiding Bishop of the Living Faith Church Worldwide (Winners Chapel), Bishop David Oyedepo, has ruled out any involvement in partisan politics, insisting that no amount of money, including $1 billion, would lure him into the political arena.
Oyedepo spoke during the impartation service at Shiloh 2025, the church’s annual convocation, held at the Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland, Ota, Ogun State.
The cleric charged members of the church to remain steadfast in their divine assignments, stressing that genuine influence and dominion are achieved by operating strictly within one’s God-ordained purpose.
“In 2015, I warned the church that trouble was coming. Didn’t trouble come?” Oyedepo said.
“Partisan politics is off my calling. If you give me $1 billion to join politics, I won’t, because it is off my course.”
He underscored what he described as the urgency of the present times, saying the world is in dire need of divine intervention.
“The world is groaning in darkness, but as written in Romans 8:19, the whole world is waiting for the earnest manifestation of the sons of God,” he said.
According to him, believers are being positioned as an end-time army to provide answers to national and global challenges, likening the process to the biblical exploits of Joseph and Daniel.
“The army of God is about to emerge to proffer solutions to national crises in the order of Joseph and Daniel.
This is the day of what eyes have not seen nor ears heard,” he added.
Oyedepo’s comments were part of a broader exhortation calling on Christians to shun distractions from worldly pursuits and remain committed to their God-given mandates, which he said would enable them to positively influence their communities and nations.
