T.B Joshua: I Quit Prophesying On Football Matches & God Has Approved It
By Belinda Wilson
TB Joshua
Prophet T.B. Joshua made his announcement Sunday during a church service in Lagos-Nigeria attended by thousands of people from across the world and monit…ored on Emmanuel Television.
“I have resigned [from] prophesying for football matches from today and my God has approved it,” said Prophet T.B Joshua bringing the whole congregation to silence.
However, the man of God was quick to say he will only attend to those (players and teams) that will need to hear God`s direction on their career and the outcome of their games.
“I have been prophesying about the results of football matches before the games are being played, but many people including my fellow Pastors could not take my words and, instead, they have been threatening my followers.
Some could even go for fasting, praying against the will of God,” the Prophet said.
“Last year I prophesied that Nigeria would not make it to Africa Cup of Nations [AFCON], but many prophets in my country rose against me and started fasting against the will of God, which is a sin before the eyes of God Almighty,” he added.
He further said when he prophesied about the outcome of last year`s AFCON finals between Zambia and Ivory Coast which he said Zambia would carry the day, many people around the world, Ivory Coast in particular, accused him that he contributed to their failure. He, however, said the accurate prophesy was honoured by celebrated African footballer Didier Drogba who consequently accepted Jesus Christ as his personal saviour. “As I am talking to you, this famous player [Drogba] came to this church just to honour the prophesy I gave out and surrendered his life to Jesus Christ.
“I even told him that next year (2013) will be the year for Nigeria because God had already showed me,” Prophet T.B. Joshua said. His resignation on prophesying for football matches comes barely few weeks after Nigeria was crowned African champions after beating Burkina Faso 1-0 during this year`s AFCON which took place in South Africa. Prior to the game, he prophesied that Nigeria would win

Maybe Fr Frank Bwalya should take over from TB Joshua. That is if he is not too busy stealing money at ZESCO

A prophet is sent by God to relay the intended message to the people, how then can someone say I have resigned tho its personal business, question mark? Is God interested in worldly pleasures like football? from Genesis to revelation all the prophets of God were prophesying about spiritual related matters and how God is going to punish those who clung to evil acts, can someone tell me where a prophet of God was sent to prophesy about games, question mark? lets be careful with some of these prophets especially in these last days. There are a lot of bible verses that can be used to tell if truly the prophet is from God or is a prophet of doom

You will know true men of GOD when it is too late for you. If you’re not sure about someone, learn to keep quiet, just teach yourself to keep quiet.That is why alot of things in life are not going on very well with most people, it is because of careless usage of the tongue, which brings about curses.

Ma rubbish from Tumfweko’s in-house-prophet Temitope Bakugan Battle Brawlers Joshua!
If God sent you to predict football matches why give up on your calling?
Before the tournament nobody said that Nigeria will win. Prophecies after occurence of the event are not prophecies at all.
Give it up before God strikes you indeed.
