Bishop David Oyedepo, the general overseer of Living Faith Church Worldwide, also known as Winners Chapel, has stated that he views his candidacy for president of Nigeria as a demotion.

On Saturday, December 9, at the impartation service of the just ended Shiloh 2023, with the theme “Redeemed to flourish in hard times,” Oyedepo revealed this.

The preacher said during his sermon on the spirit of faith that he already saw himself as the leader of nations, emphasizing that if he were elected president of Nigeria, it would be a step down for him.

He said, “When I said it would be like demotion if I am called to be Nigeria’s president because I see myself on top of nations from scripture. “The spirit of faith is action-driven, and its strength is your inner man. The day I saw God’s agenda for my life, I moved. “If I go to be with God today, you will be surprised that nations will converge here.” He also urged participants to keep feeding their faith in the word of God, saying, “If you don’t feed your spirit of faith with the word of God, it will turn to trash.”
