Pastor Ibiyeomie: I gave $1m offering when I had no house

The founder of the Salvation Ministries, Pastor David Ibiyeomie, says he once gave $1 million as offering in church at a time he had no house.

Ibiyeomie disclosed this during one of his sermons at his ministry.

The popular cleric, during the sermon, said he made the huge financial offering to the church when he had no house or landed property to his name.

He stated that only the accountant knew the sum he gave, adding that others in the church, including his wife, were not aware of the offering until he came to give his testimony.

Ibiyeomie added that his unreserved gift to God paved the way for him to subsequently making him one of the richest pastors on earth.

He said: “When I gave one million dollars as offering, I had no house. I gave it on a Sunday, my wife was not even aware until she heard my testimony.

“It was only the church accountant that knew as a privilege of his office when he saw the volume of money that came in.

“If Bible was to be written in our time; my name would have been there. My name would have been written even before David, Solomon… Solomon gave when he had money, but I gave when I had nothing.

“I had no block, not even foundation when I gave the money. Nobody is qualified to criticise me on prosperity until you have done what I did.

“In one Sunday service, I gave $1 million. Today’s equivalent is N862 million. And God said, ‘Boy you will never be broke.’

“Today I’m one of the wealthiest preachers on earth…

“Let the economy tumble, I don’t care. This man will prosper… I gave my wife N1 million every month for feeding. There is no service that I don’t give more than N1 million. And I have four services on Sunday; on each service, I give more than N1 million.”
