Bishop David Oyedepo, Presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church Worldwide (Winners Chapel), has stated that not even $1 billion could entice him to participate in politics.
The cleric made the remarks during the impartation service at the church’s annual convocation, Shiloh 2025, urging members to focus on their God-given calling. He emphasised that believers can “rule their world” and impact their communities by remaining steadfast in their divine purpose.
“In 2015, I warned the church that trouble was coming. Didn’t trouble come? Partisan politics is off my calling. If you give me $1 billion to join politics, I won’t, because it’s off my course,” Oyedepo said.
He also highlighted the urgency of the times, noting that the world is “groaning in darkness” and awaiting divine intervention. Citing Romans 8:19, he said the “army of God is about to emerge to proffer solutions to national crises in the order of Joseph and Daniel,” encouraging members to remain focused on their spiritual mission rather than worldly distractions.
Shiloh 2025 commenced on December 9 and will conclude on December 14 at the Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland, Ota, Ogun State. The event brings together worshippers for spiritual teachings, impartation, and fellowship.
