Pastor Levi Odumodu

DADDY!!!
It is almost impossible to describe you with words! You exhibited many of our Lord’s attributes: love, goodness, kindness, faithfulness, dedication, patience, joy, faith and many more. You were a guiding light to all of us in Redemption Ministries and beyond.

You were truly a beacon of light and hope to the hopeless, fatherless, widows and the less privileged. You were an inspiration to all of us in Redemption Ministries and beyond. You were truly a lover of souls. You were all these to all of us since we came in contact with you until you took your last breath on earth.

Daddy, you were indeed a rare gem, an icon in our generation and beyond. You were truly an epitome of humility, and of the love of Christ. Your selfless and unconditional love towards all of us in Redemption Ministries and beyond is worthy of emulation. You gave your all to Christ and you were still ready to give more to anyone in need of your assistance until your last day on earth.

Daddy, you led us by example, we are only privileged to serve under your leadership. We have learned more than we can ever imagine. You carried an uncommon grace, that accounts for why you could play the role of a father, mentor and a trail blazer in the Kingdom business.

Daddy, your ministry has touched and transformed countless lives, yes the impact is really global in nature. Though you have gone home to be with our Lord, but the grace you carried, the love you had for humanity, your godly meekness and your simplicity remain with us. This I know will encourage, strengthen us until we meet to part no more.
Daddy! Good night! We shall see you in the glorious morning!!!

TRIBUTE TO A “HERO OF FAITH”

Your departure broke my heart and kept me speechless for days. I wasn’t confused nor was I wondering where you are going; it is certain that Heaven awaits your home coming. But I knew I will deeply miss you.

You have been a father with a large heart. The Love of Christ in you magnetized all the fruits of the Spirit. Walking closely with God in our time as Enoch did, we saw Jesus in you.

You were the Apostle of Revival, unveiling the mysteries of God’s word with an in-depth teaching and in power. A catalyst for OASIS of life to all; mostly to the weak, the wounded, the hopeless, the rejected, nourishing and refreshing their souls.

You were Brave-hearted – you fought a good fight, finished your course, and triumph to Glory: Heaven Rejoicing with a great joy, Angels with sounds of Trumpets, Saints giving you a warm embraced, as the Crown of Glory with stars is worn on your head and adorned in a new robe, saying Well-done, thou whom Christ Loved!!

With joy in my heart I take solace in Christ and in knowing that you have left behind a footprint and a legacy that will outlive generations.

I will deeply miss you

Rest in His Bosom
Rest in His Love.

Tribute to my loving father

From every perspective I find it difficult to put this down, but I realize this is one of the numerous ways I can express my feeling during this time of grief chi
and pain.

Your surprise departure threw my family and I into deep thoughts of uncertainty, but I take courage to the fact that Christ in us is the hope of glory. Colossians 1:17.

Indeed, I found in you a peacemaker, a true disciple of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, undiluted Christian, Pastor, Mentor, and Father to me and family. A de-tribalistic leader and generous and well-meaning father who showed enormous compassion and love to the well-being of all those that came your way. Your contribution, and advice and spiritual life, were something to be emulated. Your legacies will be remembered by all. You have fought a good fight of Faith and your golden crown await you in glory.

Daddy you are a man of humble character, I still remember those days, when you will come out of your office and wake all the young brothers up in the night to play table tennis with you, you will watch us play and than play with the best hand and win, and you will still play with everyone around that night. You never saw us as strangers or low lives.

I can still remember the first time you asked me my name at Deacon Pius photo-studio, I was scared of you then, but your fatherly approach calmed my fears and brought me close to you

Though we are deeply pained by your death, but we find solace in the Word of God that we shall see you again on the Resurrection morning

Brother & Sister A. K. Komando

TRIBUTE TO A DISTINGUISHED FATHER, MENTOR AND PASTOR. REV. STEPEHEN AKINOLA:

You were a rare combination of meekness and holiness.

A maestro of diction, the finest preacher and truly, That Disciple Whom Jesus Loves.

You operated on a spiritual atmosphere that was uncommon possessing the sole Liscence to coin captivating message topics. Messages like:-

lamentation of the jealous,

X-Ray of conscience.

Pentecostal witchcraft,

Liquid content only,

Holy Ghost maternity,

ACTS 29;

M1112,

Holy Ghost maternity

Incendiaries for Christ,

Visionary or villain,

Conscience under fire

Damned through the pulpit etc

These and many other messages neither spared the men behind the pulpit nor those in the pew as both wept finding their way to the altar.

You were the brain behind the Hour of Fire, the voice in the Wind and Fire conferences, and the pastor of pastors in Conferences On Power Evangelism ( COPE)

You shed more tears for families, spent and was spent for people you only met in the gospel field or in the counseling room.

You presented a paradigm shift from the conventional approach to Christianity.

In you we saw CHRIST personified. LOVE exemplified and GRACE magnified .

Your departure made me wished it was rapture which would have afforded us the opportunity to depart at the same time.

With tears we say Good Night.

Brother & Sister A. K. Komando.

Pastor Kene Victor Oraegbunam

MAN, ie- the entire humanity can be an Acronym. M-Morning, A- Afternoon, and N-Night. In the Morning,(age 0-25) sun is rising, life can be explored, opportunities, prospects, hopes are high; it is the beginning of a Destiny. Then comes the Afternoon, (age26-50),this is the period we must become most useful to God, to humanity and to ourselves. This is the time we must define the reason for our existence. Then comes age 51-??? which is regarded as our evening, it is the space between afternoon and night. The evening is either spent in regret or satisfaction. Then comes the N- Night when no man can work(John 9:4). Daddy, our beloved father of Faith, we join the Angels and the hosts of heaven to celebrate your life of accomplishments without regrets.

Rest on! We will join you when it is all over.

Pastor Kene Victor Oraegbunam and Redemption ministries, Eleme2, Ebubu
