The Deeper Christian Life Church will be welcoming its Founder and General Superintendent Pastor William F. Kumuyi to the country in April.
Pastor Kumuyi who is at the Church�s headquarters in Lagos, Nigeria will be in the country on 4th and 5th of April and every other month in 2014.
He will be leading a �Life Transforming and Miracle Service� at the Deeper Life Church, Anyaa in Accra.
The programme will be telecast live on Metro TV and other media outlets to ensure that all those outside the capital and beyond are not denied their portion of God�s visitation. About 30,000 participants are expected to converge at Anyaa for this two-day miracle and revival service.
The leadership of the church is fully persuaded that this upcoming programme will leave in its trail, amazing testimonies of God�s awesome power and matchless grace.
Pastor Kumuyi last visited Ghana in March 2013 for a similar programme in Accra during which the power of God moved in the most unusual way. Sinners were saved, the sick were healed and deliverance also came to the oppressed. A month earlier, he was in Kumasi for the northern sector version of the programme and God was in action in the most unusual manner.
According to the National Overseer of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry Accra, Pastor John Boham, �the power of God will be present to cause major shake-ups in the lives of all participants and meet them at the very points of their needs. We are trusting God to visit all willing hearts with his miracle and revival�.
Background of Pastor Kumuyi
W.F. Kumuyi was born in 1941 into an Anglican home. It was a very strict Christian home, he told Isaacson, �We would get up in the morning, read the Bible, sing hymns, and go to church regularly. When I went to secondary school I lost interest in the church because our principal taught us atheism. But after a while I thought again and started going to various churches in town. Eventually, in 1963, a group of singers and preachers from a Gospel church got permission to come to the school. I understood the Gospel message, and was born again on April 5th, 1964. I read John Wesley, Charles Finney, Spurgeon, and lots of other books. I got involved with the Scripture Union, and I grew.�
From Professor to Preacher!
He gained a first-class degree in Mathematics at the University of Ibadan; then went back to Mayflower School to teach. After five years he went to the University of Lagos to do a Postgraduate Certificate in Education and became a lecturer there in 1973; and that was when he started a small Deeper Life Bible Study group.
In speaking to a group of Pastors under his leadership as General Superintendent, W. F. Kumuyi said: �Our emphasis should be on the practical side of going out. If the Lord comes, let him meet us working for him. Now every time I preach I try to mention evangelism. I have told all the Lagos District Coordinators and Zonal Leaders to spend half their time on evangelism and only half their time on their members. There will always be problems in the church: don�t let them take up all your time�.
Kumuyi is the founder & General Superintendent, and he carries a tremendous weight in pastoring the Gbagada (Lagos) church alone, quite apart from the (now thousands) of other congregations across Nigeria and the rest of the world. He is a remarkable leader, one of God�s people for this generation. Kumuyi has received a great deal from God, but he is adept at passing along what he receives.
