It’s Bishop David Oyedepo’s 60th birthday! Read about ishop Oyedepo below and kindly drop your wishes in the comment box we have created for him below: Bishop David Oyedepo is a man of enviable reputation. Rated as the wealthiest preacher in Nigeria by Forbes Magazine, the Living Faith Church Worldwide (Winners Chapel) which he founded boasting no fewer than 6000 branches and its 50,000-capacity Church Sanctuary in Canaanland, Ota, Ogun State listed as the largest church auditorium by Guinness Book of Records, he is indeed an institution. To say of the estimated 160 million Nigerians, Bishop Oyedepo is one of the most celebrated, is a statement of fact. A native of Omu-Aran, Kwara State, Bishop Oyedepo was born in Osogbo, Osun State on September 27, 1954 to Ibrahim, a Muslim healer and Dorcas, a member of the Eternal Order of the Cherubim and Seraphim (C&S) Movement Church. He was raised by his grandmother in Osogbo. She inculcated in him, the virtues of Christian life via early morning prayers, which she attended with him. He became born again in 1969. He reportedly received a mandate from God through an 18-hour vision in May 1981, to liberate the world from all oppression of the devil through the preaching of the word of faith. That vision led to the founding of the Living Faith Church Worldwide (LFCWW), first called Liberation Faith Hour Ministries in 1981. On September 17, 1983, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, ordained him and his wife, Faith to become pastors and officially commissioned the new church. Five years later, Oyedepo was ordained as Bishop. He is the President of David Oyedepo Ministries International (DOMI). DOMI is the umbrella organisation comprising Living Faith Church Worldwide (a global network of churches), World Mission Agency (WMA); the global missionary arm of the church’s operations, Dominion Publishing House; the publishing arm of the church, Covenant and Landmark universities, and the Social Development Missions projects- hospitals, maternity homes, schools, etc. No doubt, he is obviously a very busy man, juggling and coordinating so many things at the same time; moving across continents within hours
