I’ll not be celebrating my 58th birthday – How TB Joshua prophesized his own death

 

It appears late founder of Synagogue Church of All Nations, SCOAN, Prophet TB Joshua, may had prophesized his own death.

IDOMA VOICE reports that the renowned cleric died on Saturday evening in Lagos of an undisclosed ailment, days to his birthday.

Before his sudden demise, Prophet TB Joshua recently disclosed to his congregation that he will not be celebrating his 58th birthday on June 12 which happens to be his birthday – a day which is coincidentally Nigeria’s new Democracy Day.

It is however, not clear whether it was because he knew of his imminent death, or because of the state of the nation.

The Emmanuel TV televangelist told his members to pray and fast on June 12 rather than celebrate his birthday.

While addressing his members, TB Joshua said; “As you know, I am a man of the people. So, the wound of one is the wound of all.

“As things stand, you may have realised it will not be easy for me to celebrate my birthday under the present circumstances,” adding that many who wanted to visit Nigeria for the occasion “are troubled by the situation all over the world.

“We see their fear and their worry. I feel their pain; I feel their worry so pray for Nigeria on June 12, 2021.

“Let us dedicate this day to prayer and fasting. Don’t forget the needy.”
