At Genesis Global Church situated at Ikeja, Lagos, South-West, Nigeria, history was made on Sunday 19th, 2022 as the beautiful wife of the shepherd in charge, Prophet Dele Ogundipe, Prophetess Adesola Ogundipe ministered for the first time in celebration of Father’s Day at the evening service.
Ironically, that was the first time the woman of substance would minister in the history of the Celestial Church of Christ.
The arrival of the elegant and highly spiritual woman of substance to the podium was engulfed with very loud encomium and ovation.
While speaking, Prophetess Adeshola Ogundipe spiritually spoke about how a man should be increased in all ramifications.
As a mother, she also vehemently prayed for all the congregation and the church of God.
In his reaction to this development, Prophet Dele Ogundipe said allowing his wife to minister at the Lagos branch of the church was not to undermine the church but to give women a sense of belonging in the church. ‘I’m not trying to break the rule in Celestial but to give the women fork the sense of belonging.
I believe that my wife speaking to the women in the church would assure them that women too have a say in the house of God.
This is not about church, is about love and passion for humanity. Lots of things would happen here, we are going to motivate ourselves, we are going to empower ourselves both spiritually, mentally, and financially too."
