Although, it’s commonplace to have a good man and a godly man, there are men that combine the attributes of uprightness and knowing God. Apostle (Prof.) Johnson Suleman belongs in that category of men who, on godly standards, make wise decisions and are equally nice and show love based on a worldly standard.
“Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.”- James 1:12
Through his teachings, the servant of God and senior pastor at the Omega Fire Ministries (OFM) worldwide reveals that in his growing years, life indeed tried him, not once but often. “Challenges and set-backs had happened,” he had stated in one of his lectures about life, “and they tested my spirit, love and faith but I remained unshaken.” He added that because he was ready for God, he didn’t give up at the first sign of tests but trusted God and allowed Him to work on his behalf.
Something makes Suleman’s preaching so unique; it is the fact that he always presents himself as a proof of God’s miracle, ready to share the blessings with the people in terms of spiritual sight, spiritual value and spiritual showing of God’s glory.
Apart from focusing on God’s word, being generous is another quality that describes Apostle Suleman.“Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.” -2 Corinthians 9:6
The famous cleric teaches that an attitude of giving shows itself in a relationship. “I enjoy giving because my Bible tells me that a man who enjoys giving, will have less difficulty; a man that knows that his riches are not earthly, but come from God, will worry less about material stuff and know that God can meet his needs at all times,” he had expressed in one of his sermon videos.
Being responsible is a prime indicator of maturity and wisdom. Apostle Suleman lectures that a truly godly man must be answerable for his deeds. He says he is led by the Spirit to take responsibility and every man should endeavor to be spirit-led and take full responsibility for his actions.
Also, one important characteristic you find in the Edo State born fine preacher is humility. He is said to represent a good reason why a godly man must be humble. Suleman posits that life can be challenging and confronting at times, however, only people who are able to resist the desire to always be right and are able to acknowledge their mistakes and weaknesses are truly humble and can ease tensions.
Fortunately, being a good husband is made easy by having a moral compass and prioritizing the union. Apostle Suleman and his beautiful wife, Reverend Lizzy, marked their 15th wedding anniversary recently. The way the couple celebrated the occasion was the reason their union has endured since 5th of June, 2014. Reading Suleman’s lips, being married to Lizzy was about following his heart, conscience, and acting on his love for the wife. They are simple steps that have sustained their home thus far and will the marriage a brighter future. “Every woman likes to be appreciated. When your wife makes her hair or wears a dress, the man must compliment her. Women love compliments. The husband must not eat her food and say thank you Jesus. It wasn’t Jesus that cooked the food! So, thank her before thanking Jesus.”
Finally, the ‘Oracle of God’ warns that even though a man can be all of the characteristics above, he must fear God and lives his life accordingly. According to him, knowing that God judges our behaviour towards each other and sees the things we do in the dark encourages us to live a life of obedience.
#FreeVDM Trends as EFCC Secures Court Order to Remand VeryDarkMan Over Alleged Cybercrime
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has obtained a court order to remand controversial social media activist Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), pending the conclusion of an investigation into alleged cybercrime offences.
VDM was dramatically arrested last Friday outside a bank in the Wuse area of Abuja by a combined team of EFCC operatives, Department of State Services (DSS) officers, and the Nigeria Police Force. Eyewitnesses say the activist was apprehended moments after leaving the bank, sparking immediate online outrage.
The arrest has ignited a social media firestorm, with the hashtag #FreeVDM dominating trends across platforms throughout the weekend. Many critics argue that the arrest is yet another attempt by authorities to intimidate dissenting voices online.
“The remand order was granted to allow us to complete our investigation and finalize the charges,” a senior EFCC official told reporters, noting that charges would be filed under the Cybercrimes Act once investigations are complete.
Sources familiar with the case say the EFCC is building a case focused on alleged violations involving online financial misconduct, which fall under the commission’s purview.
As of Monday morning, VDM remains in EFCC custody, with his legal team led by rights activist Deji Adeyanju confirming efforts to gain access to him and prepare a legal response.
“We are seeking to visit our client and are reviewing the legal implications of his arrest,” Adeyanju said in a statement.
Despite the mounting public interest and widespread speculation, the EFCC has yet to release an official statement detailing the arrest or outlining the specific charges VDM may face.
The arrest of VeryDarkMan adds to growing concerns over press freedom and digital expression in Nigeria, where several social media commentators have recently faced legal action for controversial posts.
David Abioye Launches New Church, Living Word Conquerors Global Assembly, Amid Jubilant Crowd
Former Vice President and retired pastor of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Abioye, has officially inaugurated his new ministry, Living Word Conquerors Global Assembly, marking a new chapter in his over four-decade-long spiritual journey.
The launch took place today, Sunday, May 4, 2025, during the ministry’s first Sunday service, which saw a massive turnout of enthusiastic worshippers. The atmosphere was charged with excitement as congregants gathered to witness what Abioye described as the “manifestation of God’s eternal purpose.”
In a passionate address during the inaugural service, Abioye emphasized that the establishment of the new church was not the result of public opinion or personal ambition, but a divine assignment birthed from deep spiritual conviction.
“May I make it very clear that the inauguration of this assembly is not in response to demands of people to start a church,” Abioye declared. “But by the emergence of God’s eternal purpose, ordained from the foundation of the word, which is just coming to light at His own time.”
The renowned cleric explained that the Living Word Conquerors Global Assembly is founded on divine direction and is dedicated to the spiritual development, edification, and victory of believers worldwide.
Clarifying his role in the new ministry, Abioye stated that he does not view himself as someone attempting to fulfill the entire Great Commission alone, but rather as a messenger raised for a specific divine assignment within God’s broader agenda.
“In the name of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, for the spiritual development, edification, and triumph of the saints globally… this assembly is hereby inaugurated,” he declared, drawing a resounding “Amen” from the congregation.
The launch follows Abioye’s retirement from Living Faith Church in October 2024, alongside Pastor Thomas Aremu, after the church implemented a policy setting a mandatory retirement age for senior leaders. Abioye bowed out of active service at the age of 63, concluding a distinguished ministry career under the leadership of Bishop David Oyedepo.
As the curtain lifts on this new ministry, many see it not as a departure from Abioye’s legacy, but as a continuation of his divine calling—this time under a new banner with a global vision.
