The founder of Living Faith Church, also known as Winners’ Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo, has addressed ongoing speculation regarding the purchase of the church’s aircraft, clarifying that it was not funded through church offerings.

In a recent sermon, Oyedepo shared the extraordinary story of how the aircraft was miraculously provided, emphasising that its acquisition was the result of divine intervention rather than any prior financial planning or prayers.

He reassured the congregation that the purchase came about through God’s providence, dispelling rumours about the source of the funds.

Oyedepo could be heard in a video saying, “He bought the first aircraft without any prayer, without any idea that the aircraft was coming. He said it, he delivered it nobody had any pressure on his life. There was no pressure on the offering.

“The offering didn’t buy it oo! God bought it. There was person contacted under heaven. No! God said it and I believe it and that settles it.

“It wasn’t an ambition, it was a unveiled divine agenda. If God asked me David when do you want that aircraft to be bought j would have said “God take it easy, take it easy, we are not near ready. Aircraft?.

“Okay, let me find out first how much they sell it, he didn’t give us the room to find out. Not the aircraft that would go from here to Ilorin or Ogbomosho, we travel the whole of Africa with the aircraft.”
