Apostle Johnson Suleman
Johnson Suleman, who just ended the Johannesburg, South Africa, version
of the Restoration Conference 2016 and will be moving to Kigali in
Rwanda in June, shares his travel experience, and why he rejected a plane
offer by a businessman.
You were in Johannesburg and moving to Rwanda next. What should the
Rwandans expect of your mission there?
We have declared our next move through the Holy Ghost to have the next
Apostolic Visit to Kigali, Rwanda. The Johannesburg experience was
awesome. I will tell you that Rwandans will experience unforgettable
moments and results with God. They are going to experience great grace.
It is going to be miracles all over; challenges shall end as God’s Oracle
storm the African country. Storms shall disappear, and the mighty
presence of God shall manifest. It is going to be the same experience in
Philadelphia because the next leg of the mission goes there.
You are always on the move around the world preaching the gospel. What
have been the experiences so far?
God has sent His servant to America, to the world, to bring restoration and grace to all who would believe. Recently, the world experienced he presence of God in America, as people
from all parts of America yearned for the great encounter. Over the years, American cities like New York, Texas, Chicago, Georgia, Maryland, Florida and several others have experienced the power of God. It was Minnesota, three weeks ago, and Philadelphia next. We were also in Sierra Leone after the Minnesota
experience. Next was Johannesburg in South Africa, and next is Kigali,
Rwanda. And God has promised us these are also going to be fulfilling
journeys in the life of the hopeless and the downtrodden. As we move
around the world through His special grace, millions of people are being
freed from all evil foundations that temporarily hold on to their glories,
finances, health, spiritual life and family success.
Your ministry’s Celebration TV just marked its third anniversary. How
has the response been using a faith based television channel to reach
audiences?
We give all glory to God. We saw this vision passionately spreading
beyond Africa and it has come to be. We are determined to keep on this
blessed track and ensure souls and lives are redeemed as far as
technology can reach. The aim for which the Celebration TV of our great
ministry of God was established is fulfilling. One of the core objectives is
to reach many homes across the world, wiping away tears and restoring
people back to their destinies through the revelation of the Word and the
manifestation of power and the reality of the Holy Spirit. Celebration TV
was established to take the gospel into the homes, schools, offices and
businesses of millions across the nations. We are going to continue to use
this powerful tool for the gospel and expansion of the Kingdom.
It was in the news that you have joined the league of pastors who own
private jets; is that true?
It is no crime for a man of God to have a private jet, if it is meant to
reach the world faster in spreading God’s mission. But I don’t have one
yet. The truth is that, I was given a private plane as a gift about one
month ago. But God told me that the giver was not pure. So I rejected it.
You may have seen the pictures of the jet on the internet. In fact, I
collected it. But when I prayed over it and found out that the source of the
giver’s wealth wasn’t sincere, I politely turned it down.
Helping people has become a constant feature with you, even as you
heal people. Is that the secret why you have so many followers?
To start with, one lesson is the value of time-tested methods. Yes, using
the new media for outreach contributes significantly to attracting people
to God. But the fact remains that teaching the Word and having personal
relationships by way of sharing, are the most effective forms of publicity
to growing the church. Like I have always shared with people, I have
tasted poverty. I come from a very humble background. This is what fires
my passion for sharing with the less privileged. We are not graceful with
words of mouth; we are also generous with other things that make life
worth living for a man. God understands the needs of man and He is ever
ready to provide those needs if man obeys His Word. We regularly share
cars worth several millions of Naira, cash gifts and more. The latest is a
brand new multimillion Naira Mercedes car we gave out to a member.
There is the story making the rounds about celebrity marriages crashing.
What are the divine elements needed to keep a marriage going?
The Lord says in Genesis 2:18. “It is not good for the man to be alone. I
will make a helper suitable for him. That is a proof that God wants and is
happy with man and woman relationship. For a Christian to keep the
home, spouses must avoid anger to the point of leading them to commit
evil. In marriage, you need to understand the mystery of the third party. It
must be fought. In marriage, spouses must always be one another’s
friends. If a marriage must succeed, there in spouses, must be spiritual
and emotional maturity. One of the keys to a lasting marriage is
communication. Lack of communication gives room for suspicion and the
devil sets in. Spouses must learn to call each other pet names to deepen
the mutual affection, even in Christian homes. A woman must learn to
take good and proper care of her body. In marriage, love covers multitude
of offences. Immorality sets into marriages when men are not sexually
free with their wives.
Can you share the experiences of your recent conference in
Johannesburg.
It was indeed awesome. God manifested Himself in many miraculous
ways. It is a written pact that God’s works done in God’s way never lack
positive supplies. God has always been wonderful. The Johannesburg
experience tagged Restoration Conference 2016 was an explosive
deliverance episode that was filled with signs of His glory and power.
Many things new did happen in the life of many. Of course, when Jesus
calls, the world gathers; listens and profits hugely.
