HISTORY OF DIVINE FAVOUR PROPHETIC, HEALING AND POWER MINISTRY. BY THE FOUNDER. PROPHETESS MRS ONYINYECHI EZEKPO.

Divine Favour Prophetic Healing and Power Ministry in Enugu recently caught the attention of El-Zion Global Network News because of the numerous testimonies and miracles witnessed in every service. The ministry started expanding since it moved to its present location. A meeting of four people in the sitting room of Mr. Arinze Ezekpos, facilitated by his wife Prophetess Mrs. Onyinyechi Ezekpo, has turned out to be one of the fastest-growing ministries in Enugu State, Southeast Nigeria. Mr. Gideon Ikwu of El-Zion Global Network News conducted an interview session with Prophetess Mrs. Onyinyechi Ezekpo, and below are her answers.

El-zion News —Woman of God, could you please introduce yourself?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo — By the Grace of God, my name is Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo.

El-zion News — Can you tell us the name of your ministry?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo –- By the Grace of God, the name of the ministry I'm privileged to have founded is called Divine Favour Prophetic, Healing and Power Ministry in Enugu.

El-zion News–- When did you receive the vision to embark on this journey with God?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo — By the Grace of God, I received the vision during my secondary school days, SSCE 2, in September 2000.

El-zion News –- Could you please share the encounters that made you truly believe that you were being called by God?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo—, there are numerous encounters that got me really convinced that I was being called by God. One occasion I remember vividly is when a young man, whom I had never seen before, came around. Without asking him any questions, I told him everything about the lady he was planning to get married to. The young man was surprised and went to call the lady. When she arrived, God revealed deeper things about her as well, and this prompted her to go and bring her friend. People do experience instant healings whenever I prayed for sick people. During that time, I had a dream where I was ministering to a large crowd.

El-Zion News –- This is exactly the case of Jesus Christ and the Samaritan woman. You caught this vision very early. Please, can you tell us how you were able to guide this vision ,that made you not to lose it during your days in the university?    

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo –- Naturally, I love God so much, and that made me to hold the vision very dear to my heart. During my university days, I tried as much as possible to keep away from any form of distraction and people who I know that are not godly. I was highly selective of people that I interacted with. I did go out to preach and pray for people during my days at university. I realized that as I prayed for people, the anointing of God upon my life continued to increase.

El-zion News –- How were you able to gather the multitude that is being seen in your Ministry today?        

                                                        Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo —- It's the Grace of God and His hand that has been bringing people to the ministry. I have not organized any form of evangelism outreach or crusade. Just like you mentioned the Biblical Samaritan Woman, going about telling people and bringing them to Jesus Christ, that is exactly the case of this ministry. People will come, God will answer them, and they will go and call their friends and family members. That was how people started trooping into the Ministry. Up until now, it does appear to me as a dream of the night.

El-zion News–- Can tell us the first meeting Venue of this Ministry.

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo —-                        We held the ministry's first meeting in my sitting room at No. 10 Oghe Lane. Only a few people attended that day, and the meeting lasted just one hour. It took place on a Monday. The following Monday, many more people attended, causing the sitting room to be crowded. The presence of God was strongly felt that day. Many attendees left and spread the news, leading to an increase in our number.

 El-zion News — There is a saying that goes, 'Behind every successful man, there is a woman,' and vice versa. Can you tell us how your husband has played a role in realizing this vision?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo—: There's nothing pays like one obeying the voice of God when choosing your life partner or accepting a proposal from suitors. My husband, Mr. Arinze Henry Ezekpo, has truly been highly supportive and has always been there for me, both financially and otherwise. His words of encouragement always keep me going, even when I feel overwhelmed and exhausted. His support for me cannot be overemphasized; he is truly my father and my darling.

El-zion News — The work of ministry is not easy. Please, can you tell us the major challenges that almost made you think of dropping the vision?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo—- God's grace has always been there. There were many challenges encountered before we got to this point. There was a time when our number decreased from 60 to 4. Of course, I was at a loss. Not long after, I lost my dear elder brother. I was so devastated that I told God I would quit. But on both occasions, God warned me sternly. He always cautions me with this statement: 'Don't tempt the Lord your God.'

El-zion News — Can you tell us about the most powerful miracle and testimony that has taken place in your ministry?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo — There are numerous ear-tingling testimonies, miracles, and healings. On one occasion, while we were having fellowship one Wednesday, the power of God came upon a woman and she rushed to the toilet and practically passed out fibroids. Marital curses have been broken that made ladies whom people never believed would ever get married, ended up getting married gloriously. God has given many families having challenges in childbearing children through my ministry. Many people have obtained their visas through my ministry by the grace of God. I'm constrained by time to mention these few.

El-zion News— Where do you expect the Divine Favour Prophetic, Healing, and Power Ministry to be in the next 5 years?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo — By the grace of God, in the year 2025, we are going to have our permanent site. Already, the drawing of the prayer and healing arena we want to build is down. That massive arena is going to boast of having lodges to enable people who come from different places for healing, deliverances, and ministry to have a comfortable place to stay. This ministry is an international ministry. In the next five years, by the grace of God, we should be having international programs that will cut across different continents.

El-zion News — In the course of your response to my questions, you always say 'by the Grace of God.' How much do you believe that Grace has done in your life and ministry?

Prophetess Onyinyechi Ezekpo— Without Grace, I am nothing. Without Grace, there wouldn't be Onyinyechi Ezekpo. Without Grace, there wouldn't be Divine Favour Prophetic Healing and Power Ministry. 

The favor implied in the name of the ministry suggests that everything about the ministry revolves around the Grace of God.
