Celebrate Jesus Christ’s Glorious Resurrection - with Bishop Frank Ogagba




I often ask myself where I’d be today had I not met Jesus in June 23, 1986. Frankly, I don’t even want to think about it, for my life would be empty now and meaningless.

I’ve said to the Lord numerous times, “It would have been better to never have been born than to not have met You.”

He has given my life glorious meaning and fulfillment and satisfied me beyond measure.



Truly the richest man without Jesus is poor, and the poorest man with Jesus is rich. The songwriter said it beautifully when he wrote:

You are my everything,
You are my all;
You are my everything
Both great and small.
You gave Your life for me
And made everything new.
Jesus, You are my everything,
And I love you.

I’m sure there have been moments when you, too, have wondered, “Where would I be without Jesus?”

He has done so much for you and so much for me. Truly, great is the Lord and greatly to be praised.

Now this same Jesus who has touched your life and given rest to our souls is calling you and me to serve Him and to obey Him.

The World Longs for His Peace
Millions of men, women, and children around the world are starving for this glorious peace that you and I know on a daily basis. This peace that passes all understanding—this peace that you and I have known since our salvation—is what humanity is crying for. And the joy that you and I know daily is what the world is crying for continually.

Think about the billions of dollars humanity spends looking for joy and peace, yet this joy and peace comes only through Jesus. And somebody’s got to tell them.

That somebody is you and me.

For the Lord has called you and me to preach the glorious Gospel of salvation to the nations, and truly our time is running out.

In 1986 at the age of 24, when saved at the verge of committing suicide and baptised in the Holy Spirit, I began to preach the Gospel, and I have been preaching it ever since and I’ll continue to do so until the day I die.

As God continue to give me faithful men and women to stand by me, God is still calling men and women so His purpose might be fulfilled on earth.



What Can You Do as We Celebrate the Resurrection?
Today my heart’s cry has not diminished; in fact, it has gotten greater. The Gospel of Jesus must be preached. Necessity is laid upon you and me, and we must obey the Lord and we must accelerate our efforts before time runs out.

The Lord has sent me to win millions of souls for Him globally, and disciple them to do likewise, so through our television and radio outreach, we are ministering to millions on our weekly NOW FAITH TV. Our Lord Jesus declared, “As my Father hath sent me, even so send I you” (John 20:21).




Think about this most glorious privilege…think about those words as God the Father—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—has sent His Son to earth. And this same God—the mighty One, the eternal One, the everlasting God of glory—has called you.

That is why Paul the apostle wrote that God has called and anointed us so that His purpose might be accomplished. The Gospel must be preached.

And so today, as you sow your financial seed for the work of the Gospel, the Gospel will be preached. As you give, it shall be given to you. As you honor the Lord with your substance, your barns will be filled with plenty. And I pray that He who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all you ask or think will bless you beyond measure. (Luke 6:38; Proverbs 3:9-10)

Thank you for serving Him through this ministry. Thank you for all you are doing for the kingdom of God, for we know that it is “not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts” (Zechariah 4:6).

Preaching the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ, teaching the unchanging Word of God, and expecting the mighty and miraculous power of the Holy Spirit to touch lives, heal and deliver them from the power of satan to serve God for ever is what we are saved and anointed to do always and we are ready to go preaching the gospel as you send us with your love gifts.


Thanks a million for saving souls globally through us on TV, Radio, Crusades and outreaches,

God bless you always,

Bishop Frank Ogagba
