Controversial Nigerian cleric, Prophet T.B. Joshua is in the news again after revelations that he accurately prophesyd the result of Nigeria’s game against Guinea which saw the Super Eagles astonishingly bow out of the African Cup Of Nations (AFCON).
“I was just sitting down and God showed me the game between Nigeria and Guinea next week,” Joshua stated on Sunday 3rd October during a church service, broadcast live on his Christian television station Emmanuel TV. “What I saw was not favourable towards Nigeria. If at this time we are stopped, it would be very shameful.” Expounding on the match details, he said, “Anyone who scores first takes the day… I am seeing the Guinean side shouting.”
Clarifying that it was not within his powers to change the outcome, Joshua added, “If I could do it alone, I would pray and fast to ask God to change the result. But it’s not possible for me to do it. Two of must believe to make things happen. We must agree and instruction must be given. Let’s honour God and carry Him along. Pray as if it all depends on God; play football as if it all depends on you.”
Six days later in crucial final qualifying game for the AFCON, Guinea held Nigeria to a 2-2 draw.
And True to TB Joshua’s word, Guinea scored first.
In a chat with reporters at the reception hall of the Transcorp Hilton shortly after the match, West Bromich Albion striker Osaze Odemwengie affirmed that the team knew of the prediction and were unhappy they did not meet Joshua before the game. “The prediction of Prophet TB Joshua really affected us. We thought we could see him to see how he could overturn the negative prediction but the officials came with another prophet who prayed for us and told us that all was well.”

Its not about taking sides…its about who shapes destiny.This is simply just proof that God holds the future and that if we abide in him, we will change the future with him.Think about it, this prophecy was even against T.B. Joshua’s own interests and preferences. The question is did the prophecy come to pass or not?

If he prophecies to the glory of Jesus christ then it is of God, for the Spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Christ (Rev 19:10). No kingdom divided against itself shall stand.Read your bible and stop masking your ignorance and unbelieve using incomplete scriptual references.You shall test a prophet by the fufilment of his words. I am starting to believe in TB Joshua.

God honors faith…and those that deligently seek him. In other words he does not take sides, and he is no respector of person but he honors those that have faith in him. He also knows the beginning from the end and the end from the beginning. So it is possible that a small david team CHIBOLYA UNITED can defy expectations and beat a goliath Manchester United, if CHIBOLYA UNITED puts their trust in God.

Well its because it is only negative stuff that makes the headlines in the news.That is why they say ” No news is good news”. He prophecies many other positive things that dont make news because it is good and because man wants to take the glory for it. if he prophecied the super eagles would win and they did, the team the coach and Footbal Association take the credit and the prophecy is nowhere to be heard.

Who are you to judge! Many of you are just jealous of men of God. When Jesus was on earth people like you said rubbish about Him. If you claim to know God, why dont you ask Him the truth about T.B. Joshua and stop this ur mathematical calculation because it does not work in spiritual matters.

Ati mwana kupala leave the man of God alone. A house divided can not stand against it self thats what says The Lord. The name Jesus Christ can not be mis used i believe Jesus Christ would have exposed him a long time ago for using The Name Jesus when he is preachng. The Word also tells us that^ you shall know them by their fruits! he is doing a lot in the name of Jesus. There is on where in the bible were prophesying healing are forbidden. Infact the greatest commission says go and preach the gospel baptise them in the name .. . . Heal the sick and cast out the demons. So pliz read yo bible and pray over certain issues the Spirit of truth will reveal the truth to you. You sound to be a citawala

Seems you are bent on discrediting the man of God by any means. Whaoo what a waste of energy, why do you expend all of it on things that you will never achieve. If you are leading a Church why not expend that energy on being used by God for his own Glory? TBJ says he does not want to talk bad about other Pastors becoz they are anointed of God and you take offense to that? Open your eyes my man and see that this man of God is humble. The greatest sin that God will never forgive is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Be careful with yourself otherwise you are headed for hell

Problem is that you are football follower only and you do not know God if you knew him you would have been in tune with him. TBJ Prophesied the death of Mwanawasa well before it happened and the events leading to his death. If you are Zedian you would have known this, but alas you are a lost soul that needs salvation.

A nation that is ignorance a genuine prophet giving to them by God almighty will always be working in darkness, weither is out of jealousy or whatever the early the whole Nigerians & government beggings to recognise him (T B Joshua) and take every of his word & prophecy serious the better for them, they should borrow French leave from the Israelite of old.

This is not prophesy, it is just mere prediction. Other funs predict evem more accurately. His ‘prophecy’ affected even the team negatively, without it maybe they would have won the game. I urge this preacher man to just concentrate on preaching rather than keep on confusing the poor christians.

Who is a false prophet? If I may ask. What and what term one a false Prophet? is it when he says something and it comes to pass or is it when he preaches in the name of Jesus and many repent or better still when he does many true miracles in the name of Jesus? I always see this TRASH of calling T.B Joshua a false prophet each and any time I open the internet on an issue connecting T.B Joshua. Has any of his prophecies fallen outside what he has ever predicted? Some call T.B Joshua a fake prophet because he perform miracles, makes true prophecies, so what of the likes of PST A.Adeboye of The redeemed,PST Kumuyi of Deeper life, PST Oyedepo of Living Faith, PST Chris Oyakhilome of Christ Embassy, or is it because all of them mentioned above had gone to the university? So what is the FALSE about T.B Joshua for heavens sake? If he is making prophecies that are not coming to pass then one can be justified by such comments. It sometimes doesn’t surprise me because most of you who call him false don’t even know much about the Bible. You’re ‘hit and run’ kind of Christians.(you go to church today and drop your Bible for next Sunday womanize, drink,fraternize,etc)lest you won’t be saying all these things. Well you’re free to say what you want to say since it can not stop the man of God from doing ‘what he was born for living for and going to die for’ I see and make Prophecies and they happen even at my level of commitment to God and I have nothing to do with the temple of the devil. God is real and ‘he is with us’(Emmanuel)and has found more favor with T.B Joshua that’s simple. Even Jesus while on earth had a disciple that loved him and that one which He loved, Peter and John respectively. Don’t allow the devil to confuse you, repent and be saved and leave T.B Joshua alone with the ‘one to judge him’.

Some of our comments are illogical. Who is the man of God, TBJoshua or the prophet consulted by officials of NFA to come and pray and prophesy for the great Eagles before the match? God is truth and he who prophesies the truth, to me, is a man of God. TBJoshua has a track-record of true prophesy. God is concerned with every human affairs none is too mean or too great to attract His concern, I guess the concern of 150 million people in Nigeria should be the concern of God. What one terms ‘doom’ to Nigerians is good news to Guineans. He does not work on majority or Israel would not exist today. Consensus of sincerely belief and faith is what we lack, we can even win the world cup if we decide to conscript and utilize the love of God who have sent a prophet like TBJoshua to a undeserving country like Nigeria

Those of you who are against Prophets or Nigerians be careful. Every Prophet in the Bible was rejected by his people, they thought they were false prophets. Moses was first rejected, he away to Jethrow. Elijah, Elisha, Joseph, Daniel, 3Hebrew boys, Hosea, Isaiah, Jeremiah etc upto John the Baptist, and Jesus Himself, the Apostles of New teatament even Now. Thats why they were even stoned to death. This has been and will always be Satans strategy to keep the world in Gross Darkness.The devil blinds peoples minds, to see false Prophets as true and true Prophets as false. TBJoshua at age 19years did total fasting, sacrificed like Jesus so he increase in anointing, but some People, Pastor dont even fast yet want to do Miracles like TBJoshua. Remember Cain and Abel,both sacrificed but God accepted Abels offering. Cain due to Jealous killed Abel but God told Cain that If u had done what your Brother Abel did you would have gotten what he has. Pastors who are like Cain like attacking Men of God who are doing what they are failing to do. But understand that We all have different Gifts, Callings, Offices and purposes in life. Some its politics, some its preaching, others business, others healing, others deliverance, others predictions, others declarations. People who attack those who predict events are very ignorant.
We do have great Men of God in the World like Oyedepo, Adeboye, Chris, Benny Hinn etc. All these have never Judge TBJoshua. Some have recommended him, others are just quite about it because the just mind there own business, then who are u to judge TBJoshua? Listen to Me, there is a Curse of Man, a Curse of Parent, a Curse of a Witch, a Curse of the Prophet and a Curse of God. When a curse of a Prophet is inflicted on you, only the same Prophet you abused can deliver you. What you dont full understand, just be quite about it. This Our Zambian Prophet always speaks against TBJoshua. TBJoshua has always been quite, doesnt speak against other Men of God, now look at what has happened to Our Zambian prophet, u saw it on TV.
In conclusion, not every Prophet is falls, and no generation can survive without the ministry of the Prophet. Every time People are in oppression, God sends a Prophet to them, both in Bible and Now. Each of these Prophets has his own unique style given to him by God to accomplish his assignment. Use the bible to know the true and false Prophets. By study Bible Prophets we understand that:
1) Every True Prophet must work miracles. Whosever says is sent by God, or is a Prophet yet does not work miracles is a lie. Jesus use miracles to make people believe. He said his disciples to go and do the same, and he said even those who would be born in future, thats us must do the same.John 20:21,Mark 16:15-20.
2) A true Man of God must Use the name of Jesus to Perform Miracles, if the doesnt use the name of Jesus yet he works Miracle then he is a false Prophet.
3) Everything a True Prophet predicts must come to pass, if it doesnt happen then he is a False Prophet. Lamentations 3: 32,37.
4) Everything a True Prophet declares must come to pass, if it doesnt happen then he is a False Prophet. Job 22:28.Lamentation 3:32,37
5) True Man of God must not charge people for miracles, if he does, he is a false prophet.
6) True man of God must preach and do everything as it is in the Bible. So even if he works all miracle but he is teaching what is not in the bible, he is a false Prophet.
7) True Man of God must live a life of Purity. So if he is in sin yet he is working Miracles then he is a falls prophet. I heard of a Zambian Prophet who has many wives yet he works miracles. Its such people you should not follow.I saw some Pastors rise against TBJoshua, accusing him to be a false Prophet, studying those Pastors’ biographies, we discovered they even had many wives, divorce, even at some point got involved in Gay marriage yet JBJoshua has had a clean record.
8)Love must reflect a life of a True prophet. He must be forgiving, giving, helping the helpless, must not attack or envy other Men of God. So when u see a Man of God, who doesnt give to the poor, or is busying preaching against others, then he is a thief. He just gets peoples offerings to enrich himself, he is a false Prophet. Use these before you chose who should be your Pastor. Not everyone who works miracle, or is rich is a false Prophet.
