a.k.a: ‘Daniel TheBeloved’
A BRIEF STORY OF GOD’S FAITHFULNESS
My name is Daniel Onyedikachi,
I am fondly called Daniel ‘TheBeloved’ by my friends. I was raised in a godly home, my father and mother served God as ministers of the gospel in areas so volatile for Christians to openly thrive because of the open attacks from Muslim radicals and traditionalists. My father’s life was constantly under physical attack by these people, and many times he escaped from their assassination attempts. My mom told me about a striking miracle in 1992 when I was in the womb about to be born; she ran vigorously into a thick forest at night to preserve the life of her children while she was heavily pregnant. It was a miracle that God kept the baby safe even in that turbulent hour when my father was almost killed, but God saved him again, which meant so much to me. Such an undying faith and unstoppable love for Jesus was passed down to me from my parents that we have a home called heaven, and we are only pilgrims in this world. My Father passed on to glory on his way back from rural missionary work when I was 13 years old, and my mom passed 9 years later in my first level as an undergraduate. Their teaching built great faith in me, especially when Mom taught us that we do not have a dead Father because God is our Father. This broke the shackles of inferiority and a desire to be pitied, because I have Father who is the King of kings and Lord of lords. Her teachings and prayers have kept me till now.
I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour when I was 8 years old; I nursed a thought in my heart that I couldn’t explain where it came from, which was, “If Jesus started at 12 years old, I could start at 8 years old”. Now I know it was the zeal of the Holy Spirit to serve the Lord that came upon me through salvation. I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit on 31st July 2005; amazingly, that was the day my father passed on to glory from the moment we got the bad news, we cried and then began to worship and then prayed from the night around 8 pm till dawn. Everyone received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and great comfort and peace indescribable came upon us all. The next day, I began to tell those who came to console us about Jesus, and I have been in Christ till now by the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ.
I began a monthly outreach when I was around 15 years old, and souls have been won to Jesus; so far, more or less 200 street and campus outreaches have been carried. In 2020, within three months 150 souls were won to Jesus. I carried out counselling programs to minimize adolescent out-of-wedlock pregnancy in Sagbama, and the gospel has touched 2 states in the North dominated by Islam and Sharia law, 2 states in the West, 3 states in the East and 3 states in the South of Nigeria. With one goal which is TO LEAVE NO STONE UNTURNED BY THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST.
Souls have been won to Jesus, including Rastafarians, cultists, Muslims, and idol worshippers.
All to the glory of Jesus Christ.
I hope you will pick up courage after reading this very brief testimony (for a day will not be enough to share my testimony), crush the head of the devil, kill the fear of men, but in the fear of God, you will step out and shout out loud to the hearing of everyone that Jesus is the Saviour! Let’s do what God has called us to do with boldness, for the King has promised to be with us till the end of age.
Oh, the Lord be magnified! Maranatha.
