Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Paul Enenche, has firmly dismissed widespread claims suggesting that he uses church funds to finance his personal lifestyle, describing such assumptions as baseless, misleading, and far from the truth.
While addressing congregants during a recent church service, Pastor Enenche clarified that he has never had direct access to the church’s financial accounts and has not at any point relied on proceeds from church materials, offerings, or donations to meet his personal needs.
Pastor Enenche on how his needs are met
The cleric explained that his lifestyle and personal needs are sustained through what he described as divine provision, rather than financial resources belonging to the church or its members.
He further stressed that income generated from books, CDs, and other materials he authors and distributes through the ministry have never been used to purchase his clothing, accessories, or any personal items, noting that church offerings are strictly channeled toward ministry work and the advancement of the gospel.
Pastor Enenche admonishes members
Pastor Enenche also used the opportunity to admonish believers to move away from excessive focus on material possessions and outward appearances, urging them to instead concentrate on spiritual growth, service to God, and dedication to the work of the church.
He concluded by calling on Christians to live purpose-driven lives, align their priorities with faith-based values, and embrace sacrifice and commitment to the kingdom of God above material pursuits.
His words in part …
“Many people don’t know our secret. Some people will think, oh, this suit is wearing now is church money. This trouser is church money. This watch is, ah, church money. That is mumuciousness of sense. Church checkbook is not in our possession from day one till now. CD that is sold in this church. I have not used one naira of it to buy a tie. Seed of destiny, monthly devotion, I write it. Not one naira of it has been used to buy socks. How much more church offering? If the one that you can say this is legitimately yours. God, the things we need, he supplies. He supplies them like that, direct. I gave about 200 and something suits out in one day. Let’s stop living for things. Let’s stop. Let’s start living for God. Let’s start living for reality. Let’s start living for what matters. Let’s start living for the kingdom. And you will come to the point where they think that people are looking for. They die after you. They rush after you. Somebody say it loud. Amen.”
