The Presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church Worldwide (LFC), Dr. David Olaniyi Oyedepo, has firmly declared that he will not venture into politics, even for a massive financial incentive.
Speaking during the impartation service at the church’s annual convocation, Shiloh 2025, the Bishop emphasized that partisan politics is simply “off my calling”. He stated, “If you give me $1 billion to join politics, I won’t, because it’s off my course”.
Oyedepo used the opportunity to urge his congregation to focus on their divine assignments. He stressed that believers should concentrate on their area of calling, where they are destined to “rule their world” and be part of God’s end-time army.
Referencing national crises, the Bishop reminded the church of his 2015 prophecy: “In 2015, I warned the church that trouble was coming. Didn’t trouble come?”.
He concluded by stressing that the world is currently “groaning in darkness,” but it is waiting for the manifestation of the children of God. According to him, the army of God is about to emerge to offer solutions to national crises, following the biblical examples of Joseph and Daniel.
