The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi has confessed that he faced a lot of tribulations in 2022 which he thought would consume him but Jesus Christ turned things around for him in 2023.
Speaking in Ile-Ife during the grand-finale of New Year Prayer organised by Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) held at Afewonro Park, Enuwa Square, on Saturday, the monarch refused to state the tribulations he faced in 2022 which was turned around for him.
According to him, “When I looked back, I observed that my life is full of God’s wonders and miracles, despite all challenges faced, but today, the Lord gave me victory over them all. I sat down here last year with a lot of tribulations and storms of life in which I cannot explain, but to God be the glory that my shame has turned to celebration.
“I observed where I started, hitherto, the Lord has helped me, it’s clearly stated to me that the Lord is alive, fool is anyone that says there’s no God.” Ooni stated.
Ooni, therefore, reiterated his commitment to serve God and humanity throughout his life and would always seek the growth and development of Ile-Ife, Osun, Yoruba race and country at large.
Earlier, the Superintendent for Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Oke Isegun Moore District Coordinating Council (DCC), Pastor Mathew Adejumo in his sermon, titled “Be Still”, from Mark 4:35-41 assured Christians that there’s power in the Lord Jesus Christ, and it is able to stop the storms of lives of those that trust in Him, country, family, town or community that rely solely on Him.
