<h4>Miracle Controversy</h4>
<h4></h4>
<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a> </strong>reports that former Big Brother Naija reality star Pere Egbi has come forward with his own powerful encounter involving renowned clergyman Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, following a widely circulated video of the pastor&#8217;s recent ministry event.</p>
<p>The footage, which has sparked intense online discussion, captures a moment during the Healing Streams Live Healing Services where Pastor Chris reportedly commanded ten individuals to rise and walk after declaring their healing.</p>
<p>The dramatic scene has drawn both admiration and skepticism across social media platforms.<br />
In response to the clip and the mixed reactions it generated, Pere took to X (formerly Twitter) to recount his personal experience from years earlier.</p>
<p>He described attending an event called “Faith Clinic” on a Monday, long before the establishment of the Healing School and when the ministry was much smaller in scale.</p>
<p><strong>PERE&#8217;S ENCOUNTER WITH PASTOR CHRIS</strong></p>
<p>Pere explained that he approached the healing line seeking relief for complications in his left hand following surgery.</p>

<p>According to him, Pastor Chris walked directly to him, took hold of his left hand, maintained steady eye contact without blinking, and simply declared, “Healed.”</p>
<p>Reflecting on the lasting impact, Pere wrote:</p>
<p><em><strong>“I’m seeing the video of ten people getting up and walking after Pastor Chris told them to get up, and I’m also reading some strange comments about it. I encountered him many years ago.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>I remember being on a healing line, seeking healing for my left hand, which had complications from surgery. At the time, there were still issues with the procedure. He had not yet started the healing school then. It was a Monday, and the program was called “Faith Clinic.” The church was not nearly as large as it is now.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>He walked up to me in that line, held my left hand, looked at me without blinking, and said, “Healed.” Fast forward to today… years later… my left hand remains healed. I had shared this story before; those who follow me closely must’ve heard me say it. There are many reasons why I believe <a href="https://openlife.ng/">God heals</a> through Pastor Chris. You cannot take that experience away from me. And he teaches the word. I do know what I know.”</strong></em></p>
<p>Pere emphasized that his testimony stands firm regardless of external opinions, highlighting his conviction in the pastor&#8217;s ministry and teachings.</p>
<p><strong>PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME AND HIS MINISTRY</strong></p>
<p>Pastor Chris Oyakhilome is the founder of Christ Embassy (also known as LoveWorld Incorporated), a global charismatic Christian ministry renowned for its emphasis on faith healing, prosperity teachings, and large-scale events like the Healing Streams Live Healing Services.</p>

<p>These programs, often broadcast live worldwide, feature prayer sessions where attendees report recoveries from various ailments. Pastor Chris has built a massive following through his focus on the power of God&#8217;s word, divine health, and miraculous interventions, with testimonies shared regularly from participants across continents.</p>
<p><strong>CRITICISM SURROUNDING HEALING AND DELIVERANCE MINISTRIES IN NIGERIA</strong></p>
<p>Miracle claims by Nigerian pastors, including Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, frequently attract scrutiny.</p>
<p>Critics question the authenticity of dramatic healings, sometimes alleging staging, psychological suggestion, or a lack of verifiable medical evidence.</p>
<p>Similar debates arise with other prominent figures in the faith healing space. For instance, media personality Daddy Freeze has voiced strong skepticism toward such events, notably questioning Pastor Jerry Eze&#8217;s reported healing of a paralyzed child during a UK program.</p>
<p>Freeze pointed out the ongoing condition of gospel artist Yinka Ayefele, who has used a wheelchair for years, asking why such miracles appear selective or absent in familiar local cases while occurring abroad.</p>
<p>Actress and physiotherapist Jemima Osunde also reacted to the recent Pastor Chris video with surprise, blending her Christian faith with her professional <a href="https://www.vanguardngr.com/">background</a> in physical therapy to express bewilderment at the claims.</p>
<p>These criticisms often center on broader concerns within prosperity and healing movements: the potential for exploitation, the absence of consistent, documented proof for high-profile miracles, and questions about why certain chronic conditions remain unaddressed despite the proclaimed power.</p>
<p><strong>A BALANCED PERSPECTIVE ON FAITH AND EXPERIENCE</strong></p>
<p>Ultimately, personal encounters with faith and healing remain deeply subjective. While skeptics demand empirical validation and point to inconsistencies, believers like Pere Egbi hold fast to transformative moments that defy explanation and endure over time. In a world quick to debate the miraculous, stories like these remind us that conviction often stems not from widespread proof, but from individual experiences that shape one&#8217;s worldview.</p>
<p>Whether viewed as divine intervention or profound belief, such testimonies continue to inspire hope for many while prompting reflection on the boundaries between faith, science, and human possibility.</p>
