International evangelist, Reinhard Bonnke has arrived Lagos for the Farewell Gospel Crusade which kicks off on Wednesday.
The German evangelist addressed a news conference at the Intercontinental Hotel, Victoria Island on Monday and promised a mighty revival and outpouring of God power.
Bonnke, 77, said he was glad to be back in Nigeria for his last crusade in Africa, describing Nigeria as his favourite nation.
He said he had no regrets for preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ in Africa for 50 years now.
The man of God said Nigeria was about to witness a mighty outpouring of the move of God on Wednesday when the crusade kicks off.
“God’s words will be preached, miracles will be full and the Holy Spirit will come down. The ripple effects of this crusade will be felt all over the world.
“No man has invented water but no one can live without water. We can’t live without the gospel, the gospel is eternal and can never be invalid. The gospel is true today Because it was true at the beginning,” Bonnke said.
Bonnke added that he chose Nigeria because of its huge population, saying that he could smell harvest of souls beginning from Wednesday.
Chairman, Central Working Committee of the Bonnke Farewell Crusade, Apostle Alexander Bamgbola said the nation was glad that Bonnke chose Nigeria for his last crusade in Africa.
“We believe that if there is any darkness still remaining in Africa, after this crusade, such darkness will vanish. Bonnke arrived on Sunday and we can feel the mighty presence of God in this land. We believe that millions of people will receive Christ,” he said.
The crusade kicks off on Wednesday behind Sparklight Estate, opposite OPIC, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and end on Sunday.
