The Call to Build

On August 3, 2020, at approximately 10:30 to 10:45 AM, the Lord spoke to Minister Ofejiro Akwenuke with a clear instruction: "Build my church." As this profound message sank in, further confirmation came through the scripture in Haggai 1:6, emphasizing the need for obedience to God's work:

"Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes."

In reflecting on this calling, another scripture, Ephesians 2:10-11, resonated deeply, affirming the foundational role of apostles and prophets in the building of the church:

"Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God; And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone."

This realization confirmed the apostolic and prophetic mandate on Pastor Elisha O.’s  life. It became evident that the Lord had equipped him to build the church in accordance with the scriptural pattern laid out in the Acts of the Apostles.

The calling to ministry was not sudden. A year earlier, the Lord had spoken the words: "Release my people. Release yourself. Build my church." In 2020, it became clear that the time had come for complete dedication to the work of the ministry.

The Logo

The logo of Christ Christian Mission reflects the ark of Noah, symbolizing the presence of God as a place of refuge from evil. The central message is the importance of being conscious of God's presence and understanding His desire for obedience and fellowship, made possible by His Spirit.

Haggai 1:6

The Holy Scripture says in Ephesians 2:10-11 that the church is built by apostles and prophets:

“Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God; And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together growth unto an holy temple in the Lord.”

These confirmed the prophetic calling upon my life. Suddenly I knew that the Lord had equipped me to build his church according to the scriptural mandate in Acts of the Apostles. In the previous year, I remembered hearing this word from the Lord a year earlier: “Release my people. Release yourself. Build my church.” I realized it was time to fully dedicate and devote myself to the ministry.
