The founder of Word of Life Bible Church, Pastor Ayodele Oritsejafor, has shared his battle with cancer and how God healed him.

The clergyman made the disclosure while addressing his congregation.

According to the cleric, he left Nigeria for medical treatment in the USA and knew someone who also travelled to the United Kingdom with the same kind of cancer but never survived it.

He said: “While I was leaving for America, somebody I know was leaving for the United Kingdom with the same kind of cancer. It’s an aggressive cancer. The day I boarded the flight coming to Nigeria, he was in a casket coming to Nigeria.

“How do you face cancer and still stand like this?

“But I did not tell you when I was going to America full of cancer, you did not know, I did not tell you. I look normal because this is my way of life.

“Hear me, I was on my two legs. I walked onto the plane, but he wasn’t there.

“Please don’t clap because I am not better than him but God remembered my heart. I have always had a heart for God.

“I told God, ‘If you save me from this, I would double my service, I would serve you twice more’. God saved me and brought me home.”
