A video of a woman, believed to be a member of The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministry in Lagos, has ignited controversy after she shared a testimony about receiving divine intervention during a Federal Government examination.
The video, which has since gone viral, shows the woman expressing gratitude for supernatural assistance and revealing that she passed the answers to another candidate during the test.
In her testimony, the unidentified woman claimed that during the examination, an old man appeared to her in the examination hall and provided her with answers to several questions.
She said the exam was a promotional test for members of the military, including the Army, Navy, and Air Force.
“We all had written our career questions. It then came to these very 10 questions, which asked, ‘Mention 10 Francophone countries and their capitals.
“Brethren, nobody knew this question. So, all I did was to raise the question paper and declare to it: ‘I am a Chosen! I am a chosen!! I am a chosen!!! This question, who are you? Where is the God of my pastor power?’
“Then, suddenly, an old man appeared by my right-hand side in white apparel. He told me, ‘My daughter, begin to write.’ And I began to write,” she recounted.
The woman also recounted how the invigilators, suspecting something unusual, removed her apron—a distinctive garment often worn by members of the church—which she claimed caused “the angel” to disappear.
This action, she said, angered her, as she believed it disrupted the divine assistance she was receiving.
“But when they returned the apron and I wore it back, the old man appeared again and began to tell the rest of the answers. I completed 10 good questions. I wrote them correctly and accurately. To me, it was like a dream.
“Brethren, when I finished writing my questions, a sister who sat by my side was a Mountain of Fire member because of the logo on her clothing. As I took up the answer sheet and was cross-checking my write-up, I signaled to the woman, saying, ‘Sister, do anything you can do humanly possible.
“Any moment from now, I am going to submit my questions.’ While I was cross-checking, the sister quietly copied. And immediately she finished, brethren, I stood up and submitted my questions. Everybody in the hall was looking at me. That was how only two of us out of 102 were able to do this,” she added.
The church then erupted in celebration as she ended her testimony.
The Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Lagos chapter, Bishop Stephen Adegbite, expressed shock
Reacting, the Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Lagos chapter, Bishop Stephen Adegbite, criticised the church for allowing such testimony, calling it a fabrication.
He emphasised that God does not perform miracles in a way that undermines integrity, stating that “there are no shortcuts to academic success other than hard work and belief in God.”
He noted that the Christian body would be meeting next Friday to address the controversies raised by the woman’s testimony and several other “unacceptable comments made by Pentecostal pastors on social media.”
“She is entitled to her opinion as she is the owner of her mouth. But for anyone to say such, we must verify that. We must see the people in the hall, and they must testify against her that that was never the situation.
“But looking at it ordinarily, that is a foolish talk, and nobody should accept that. There are testimonies you don’t allow to be given in the church. And that is why before people give their testimonies, you should invite them and know what they want to talk about.
“If it is something that is good for public consumption, you should allow it to go. But if you know that the story they are telling can only be told to monkeys, you should ask the person to go and face the monkeys and say that, not in the church. So, that type of testimony should be served to the monkeys and not to human beings,” the Lagos State CAN chairman said as quoted by PUNCH.
“They are all blatant lies from the pit of hell,” he declared, “We will be meeting probably next Friday. It is going to be a CAN general meeting in Lagos, and we are going to address it. We will speak about the madness going on among Pentecostal pastors.”
