Rev Okotie shares divine revelation he got about his status

The senior pastor of the Household of God Church International Ministries has revealed what Jesus told him about his marital status.

In a chat with BBC Pidgin, Rev Chris Okotie, 64, said God called him to be celibate like Apostle Paul in the Bible but he did not understand until he grew older.

He has had two marriages—in 20o1 and 2008—that failed.

“I’m not getting married again because Jesus has already told me that one has ended. When I was saved, when I became born again, I was in university at the time. I did not understand the will of God for my life.

“I called you like Paul. I tried to stop you at that time, but you didn’t listen. I want you to live a life of dedication to me and the work I called you for. So marriage is not on the menu again, never”, he said.
