The General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry Pastor, Dr William Folorunsho Kumuyi, has arrived Aba the commercial hub of Abia State for the Global Crusade with Kumuyi (GCK).
The Abia Global Crusade with Kumuyi, will commence from April 25 to 30. The six day event will be at the Aba Mega Mall, beside the new Park, Osisoma, on the Enugu – Port Harcourt expressway.
Speaking with journalists shortly after his arrival Pastor Kumuyi, said there will be a glorious transformation in the lives of those who will attend the crusade, hear and believe the word of God.
While explaining the theme of the crusade “Glorious transformation through Christ”, the clergyman revealed that the transformation of the human spirit can only be achieved through divine intervention from God.
He said, “Transformation is a change, a change for the better from the inside to the outside. That’s the inner man and the external man. What we can do is to change the external, but only God can change us from the inside, our spirit soul and body, our circumstances and family so that’s why we have the change and the transformation that brings glory, joy and gladness to our lives. That is why we have glorious change through Christ.
“As many people that will come to hear the word and trust God for transformation during the crusade the Lord will transform them.
“God says he’s still the same and he has not changed, He says I’m God I change not and Jesus Christ is the same yesterday,today and forever.
What he has done before in other places He’s still able to do today.
“So whatever problems people have, if they bring it to the lord and we pray to the Lord in the name of Jesus, He’s has always answered us and he will still answer us during GCK in Aba.
“God says he will satisfied all our needs. Whatever we need and we ask the lord he’s able to supply and will supply.
“When we started the GCK, I didn’t imagine all that has happened since then, the testimonies for about three years now has exceeded our planning, strategies and dreams.
“As for lives being changed we have seen tremendous things, as for healing, we never expected the amount of healing we have seen in Nigeria and beyond. I say that the Lord has been working, this is God’s own vision,dream and he’s doing much more beyond what we could have done on our own and I believe that this crusade will be another step forward in Abia State, God’s own state.we are going to see what God will do”.
The man of God, also revealed that the crusade is organized in collaboration with Christian Association of Nigeria and Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria together with his Church ( Deeper Life) with the intention of promoting unity and mutual respect amongst christian denominations.
“The program is organized in cooperation with the Christian Association of Nigeria our leaders in the various blocks of CAN will continue with the follow up after the program, to sustain the transformation that God will perform in the lives of people.
“We have ministers conference and the ministers are coming from different churches to attend”.
Another aspect of GCK in Aba is the uplifting, incisive and challenging Youth Impact Academy that will take place on Saturday morning.
Pastor Kumuyi has this to say about it “We are talking about raising stars and we want to lift the young people above and higher than what we the older people have gone. We the older people have gone some distances and to say that we are lifting the younger generation far beyond ourselves is something great.
“I will say that all the young people should come so that we can have purposeful direction in life and to become stars and not just ordinary stars but great stars”.
