As tensions continue to escalate along the Ukraine-Russia border with the threat of war looming large and international concern rising, it has been revealed that a controversial clergyman in faraway Africa had actually predicted the crisis several months ago.
“Pray for the nation, Russia because I am seeing war coming against them,” Nigerian Pastor T.B. Joshua told his congregation at The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) on Sunday 29th December 2013. “Their leader will face opposition. Pray for them,” he continued in a ‘prophetic’ message that was broadcast live via his religious television station Emmanuel TV, reportedly viewed by millions.
It is not the first time T.B. Joshua has gone on record to give predictions about world events. He is said to have accurately foretold the sudden death of Malawi’s late leader, Bingu wa Mutharika, the terrorist attack in Boston and the demise of pop legend Michael Jackson.
At the time of the ‘prophecy’, protests were ongoing and tensions were steadily brewing in Ukraine over people’s discontent with Russian influence and the refusal of their government to work with the EU. However, few thought it would result in the fatal riots, ensuing military activity and war rhetoric that has unfolded in recent days.
In Africa where his following includes several influential politicians and celebrities, Joshua’s words are taken with utmost seriousness. Malawian leader Joyce Banda was a guest at Joshua’s church on the day he is said to have made the public prediction about Russia. South Sudanese Vice President James Wani Igga was at The SCOAN on Sunday 2nd March 2014 where Joshua led public prayers for the world’s newest nation.

This man only prophesy when there are problems.I have never seen him prophesy any good but that I have seen war, I have seen a president dying,I have seen a crisis…….All the prophets in the bible prophesised with a purpose.The devil is the archtecture of evil, father of crisis, and death. Only those who belong to his kingdom can also tell the evils in future. This is where TB Joshua belong.He gets the infomation from the devil.The only difference is that he uses the bible to fool the people. Read Mathew 24.Jesus warned about the false prophets in the last days and they will deceive many.Jesus said,many will come and say is it not us who did miracles,cast out demons. But he will tell them I did not know you. Surely, if TB Joshua is not a false prophet,then there shall be on one.

Is the TB Joshua on facebook the real one? I am asking coz I went to chat with him and we chatted for some time. Then I told him the problems I am having accessing Emmanuel TV and he told me that I should send money so that he can send a decorder to me. I was kind of taken aback.

The prophecy says we should pray for Russia. Why! he is the one who invaded the other country and he has no opposition on his side. I predict the sun will rise tomorrow.

Not ‘I predict that sun will rise tomorrow’ It is ‘I prophecy that the sun will rise tomorrow’. TB is a Sangoma. Remember the South African Sangoma who predicted Zambia was going to win Africa cup when we were just in the group stage?? can we call that Sangoma a ‘Man of God’ because of the prediction?

TB Joshua is a man of Evil. TB = tuberculosis an infectious disease nonetheless. watch out for this evil man. My sister sprayed me with TB’s “holly” water. For the sake of peace and unity in the family I just ignored this foolish meaningless liquid but I noticed the Devil is everywhere.

There is no war against Russia folks! and certainly there is no opposition against its leader Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, a black belt holder in, Judo,Sambo and Kyokushinkaikan martial arts.
TB Joshua’s permutations and combinations are failing him more often now. I would advise him to upgrade his predictions model to keep up with the changing times.

But is the T B Joshua on facebook the true one or an imposter? Anyone with an answer please. I am a bit disturbed coz I thought the man of God doesn’t ask people to send money to him. This is a genuine question which needs a genuine answer.

It is people like you that these ‘men of god’ chose for things like making the congregation eat grass. You are torturing Psalm 105 vs 15! Please learn to read the Bible and ask the Holy Spirit to help you understand.

Time will tell. I had a Teacher who always told us that ‘time is the Master’. No need to insult TB Joshua, unless you have a dwarfed mind. He spoke, wait, if it happens then he got it, if it doesn’t then he missed it & he’s false. Language control bane amasele publicly kwati fyungwa.
