Pastor Isaac Oyedepo, founder of the Isaac Oyedepo Evangelistic Ministries has announced that his ministry will begin holding Sunday services in Abuja and, in line with God’s instruction, will not collect offerings.
Church Times on Tuesday reported that he made this known in an online message it monitored.
In the video, which was posted on Sunday, January 11, Oyedepo emphasised that the ministry’s primary focus is discipleship and equipping people to follow Jesus, rather than traditional financial practices.
Addressing the financial aspect of the ministry, Oyedepo clarified that “God gave him specific instructions not to collect offerings.”
While he maintained that there is nothing inherently wrong with the practice in other ministries, he “noted that for this specific assignment, his focus must remain solely on the spiritual development of the people.”
The announcement coincided with the launch of the ministry’s Sunday Services, which are scheduled to hold weekly in Abuja.
