Bishop David Oyedepo, founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide (LFC), popularly known as Winners Chapel, has said his call to ministry was not by merit but just by grace.
Bishop Oyedepo said this while ministering during the June 2025 edition of Winners Chapel’s monthly leadership empowerment summit held at Faith Tabernacle, Ota in Ogun State on Saturday.
“Where we are today is not by power nor by might, but by the manifold grace of God. My call to ministry was not by merit but just by grace.
“God told me, I have given you the people; now build them with me by putting brighter light into them. God is determined to raise up for himself a revolution of end-time armies through the depth of revelations. People of attraction, and by them, I will storm the world.
“God once told me, ‘It’s not that you are better; I have more than a thousand ready to take over if you missed it.
“So we got here not by direction but by diverse corrections. No man is all-knowing. This is why we have Jesus as the master.
“We are liable to get things wrong, but to refuse correction can be costly because God will never back up what he has not commanded. We had packed our bags to go to Jos, and I heard God say, you are not going to Jos,” Oyedepo said.
