    Mike Bamiloye criticises female ministers who prioritise ministry over family

    Renowned clergyman, Mike Bamiloye, has expressed disapproval of female ministers who frequently travel for ministry work, leaving their husbands behind.

    Bamiloye noted that some of these women accuse their husbands of stifling their visions and callings when concerns are raised about their prolonged absences. 

    He highlighted the irony of such ministers traveling the world, enjoying luxurious accommodations and fine meals, while their husbands remain at home managing the local church.

    He also criticised the hypocrisy of publicly praising their husbands from the pulpit while leaving them to endure loneliness and neglect.

    He wrote on Instagram: “There is a class of female Ministers who never stayed at home with their husbands. They travel everywhere, being hosted in many hotels and suits all over as they minister about, eating the best of sumptuous meals provided by their hosts while their husbands stay alone at home manning the local church.

    “They could be away from home on ministrations for two or three months, “Preaching” the gospel all over the world while their husband languishes at home alone, being fed by cousins, nephews, or housemaids. And when the husband attempts to stop them from moving or attempt to reduce their frequent “mission” trips, they would say he is killing their visions and suppressing their callings.

    “They would stand behind the pulpits and podiums introducing their sermons with praise for their husbands: “I bring you greetings from my husband, the owner of my head. The payer of my dowries without whom I would not be here today. He sent his warm greetings ” , even while the man is suffering loneliness at home. Cold or hot the man is alone.”

    Many pastors endure, rather than enjoy marriages – Mike Bamiloye

    Mike Bamiloye, founder of Mount Zion Faith Ministries International, has claimed that many pastors are enduring their marriages rather than enjoying them.

    Sharing his thoughts on Instagram, Bamiloye discussed the struggles some pastors face in their relationships, particularly with their wives. 

    He pointed out that certain pastors’ wives manipulate their husbands by exploiting their spiritual calling, assuming that their husbands cannot resort to physical abuse or divorce due to religious obligations.

    Bamiloye described this behavior as a form of “blackmail” and revealed that many pastors feel trapped in their marriages, unable to act due to the pressures and expectations of their faith community.

    “Several women believe that a pastor cannot beat them like unbelievers or divorce them at will. They use the man’s calling/ministry to blackmail him. Several pastors are not enjoying their marriage but enduring it,” he wrote.

    Mike Bamiloye defends Adeboye’s apology on tithing

    Flmmaker Evangelist Mike Bamiloye has commended Pastor Enoch Adeboye for publicly apologising over his previous statement that those who don’t pay tithe won’t make heaven.

    Bamiloye highlighted Adeboye’s humility, emphasising that only a leader focused on heaven and eternity would take such a step.

    He also referenced biblical examples, including Prophet Samuel, to illustrate the importance of humility and obedience to God’s guidance.

    Bamiloye noted that Adeboye’s apology wasn’t just a simple act but a testament to his heavenly focus.

    He wrote: “IT WAS THE APOLOGY THEY HEARD, THEY IGNORED THE REMAINING PART OF THE MESSAGE: Let me refresh You! MY FATHER, DADDY E.A..ADEBOYE ALSO SAID: It is wrong to limit you to 10%. At a time when some of you should be at 20%, 30%, 40%. 10% should be for Beginners.
    You want to be the One at the top?, If you are the one who would control finances, you will have to go far beyond 10%.

    “I NEVER NEVER EVER EXPECT THE CHILDREN OF THIS WORLD TO UNDERSTAND THE PRINCIPLES OF THE KINGDOM. It is beyond their Reasoning.

    “1 Corinthians 2:14 NKJV “But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them because they are spiritually discerned.

    “But if you are a Child of the kingdom of God, going to Heaven and Expecting the Coming of Jesus Christ, I DO NOT expect you to have problems with that statement.
    BUT IF YOU STILL DO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH WHAT BABA SAID, then your Spiritual Sanctification is very Doubtful.

    “Prophet Samuel made a mistake when he was sent to anoint a son of Jesse as king of Israel. He looked physically at the firstborn and wanted to anoint him: he said, “Behold, the Lord’s anointed is here.” The Lord said, No, I have not chosen this one!”All the sons Prophet Samuel thought was the choice was each rejected by God until David came and God said “Arise, and anoint him.

    “Daddy E.A. Adeboye made a statement and the Lord CORRECTED HIM before he came out in the open to Correct Himself at the Lord’s Instruction.
    You think it is easy for a man of such Global Status to come out in the open to apologize, if God had not Corrected Him in the secret?
    It is only a Person who has Heaven in Focus and Eternity in Heaven in view that would count it important to do that.

    “If you like, make jest of him, If you like Drag him on the ground for doing what the Lord had instructed him to do. BABA HAS HEAVEN IN HIS FOCUS, and that is why he doesn’t care about Earthly Honor or human ego.
    IT TAKES HUMILITY FOR A MAN OF GLOBAL STATUS AS THIS TO COME OUT AND APOLOGIZE. Only God could have spoken to such a man.
    Because God resists the Proud but gives grace to the Humble. (James 4:6)”.

    Mike Bamiloye recounts humble beginnings with wife

    Mike Bamiloye, founder of Mount Zion Faith Ministries, has shared a touching story of faith, love, and perseverance during his early years of marriage.

    In an Instagram post, Bamiloye reflected on the financial struggles he and his wife, Gloria, faced leading up to their wedding.

    He revealed that they relied on the kindness of loved ones, with his best man gifting him a suit, and his sister-in-law providing shoes and socks.

    According to him, their financial difficulties persisted, as they couldn’t even afford the N170 required for a court marriage.

    “Me, whose wedding was helped by grace. When I got married, I didn’t have any money to take my wife to a honeymoon. We stayed in the house that we just rented. No Money for Honeymoon.

    Me, that it was my Big Sister who rented the flat for me so that I would not bring my wife to her house.

    “Shey, me, that it was my Best Man that bought my suit and shirt so that I could wear the same thing with him.

    Shey me that it was my Sister-in-Law who graciously bought the shoes and socks that I wore on my Wedding Day.

    “Gloria and I went around to see where we could rent a Wedding gown and we got a place and told them we would come back with the money before a Sister in our Ministry gave us the money to deposit for sowing a Wedding Gown.

    Me, I took my wife to the Registry to ask about Court Marriage and they told us the money to pay for the event, was a very small amount of money. It was around N170.00 (One Hundred and Seventy NAIRA). But we could not get the Money so we collected their forms and never returned with it because I could not get the money required.

    “So we went to the Wedding without the Registry. So we never had a Government Marriage Certificate until about Six years ago when and Embassy demanded it, because we didn’t have the money for Court Marriage. All the Money we got on our Wedding day was used to settle the debts of the printer who printed out Wedding Programs and other things.

    “So, two days after our Wedding, we had no money on us again.

    The following Saturday we had a drama ministration in ILESA, and we stood beside the road looking for a “Lift” to the ministration venue. But here we are sponsored by GRACE, I thank God I didn’t marry a lady who would put me under unwarranted pressures and unnecessary constraints. Glory be to God for GLORIA!”

    He argued that it is misguided for a Christian to use their acting skills in secular movies solely for personal satisfaction, rather than to glorify God with their gifts.

    “It is an error when a Christian believer uses his acting gift which is meant to glorify God to satisfy self in secular movies. It is a waste of heavenly investment”, he said.

    Mike Bamiloye condemns fake testimonies in churches 

    Renowned gospel minister and founder of Mount Zion Faith Ministries, Mike Bamiloye, has strongly denounced the practice of sharing fake testimonies in churches.

    In an Instagram post, Bamiloye described those who deliberately share untrue stories as “playing pranks with God.”

    He emphasised that such actions are inspired by the devil to embarrass the Church and undermine its credibility.

    Bamiloye’s statement came amid controversy surrounding miracle testimonies from the Lord’s Chosen Church that have gone viral online.

    The evangelist stressed that God is capable of performing miracles, citing biblical examples, but warned against attributing false testimonies to Him.

    He cautioned that those who engage in this practice risk facing God’s judgment and potentially misleading others.

    He wrote: “Playing pranks with God! If you stand on the Lord’s Altar to give fake Testimonies deliberately, you are playing Pranks with God! If you mount the Altar of God to deliberately tell lies that God has done what He knew nothing about,

    You are playing Pranks with God! If you arranged a fake Testimony to be said on the Lord’s Altar just to pump up congregation, You are Playing Pranks with God!

    “If the devil set you ip to embarrass the Church through all his reckless Bloggers,

    You are playing pranks with God!

    “And you bloggers looking for things to write against the Church of Christ, employed and Paid by the devil to drag His Body in the mud and stripe the Church naked in the marketplace for monetization, come-on, you are ignorant of the fact that you are being used by the devil.

    “As for me, God is Unlimited, There is nothing, absolutely nothing He can not do! He can do all things! He brought waters out if the rock. He walked upon the sea. He brought out coin from fish mouth. He turned water to wine and multiplied bread in the hands of disciples. The entire Bible is full of mind blowing Miracles!

    “Luke 1:37 KJV. For with God nothing shall be impossible. But if the Devil has given you a gift and you come to the Lord’s Altar to give God the glory,

    You are Playing Pranks with God! He would not take the dirty glory of the Devil.

    “He is King of Glory. If you are playing Pranks with God, I am so sorry for your derailing Soul. The Devil that employed you to do this has a damning agenda for your Soul. The Judgement of God is hanging upon all the Pranksters who are making Mockery of God and the Body of Christ. It is a Terrible Judgement!

    They have misled multitudes of weak Christians. 

    “They have discouraged lots of new Converts. They have hardened the hearts of many unbelievers.

    For the purpose of Monetization. If you Play Pranks with God, you are risking your Soul and Playing with God’s Judgement. #mikebamiloye”.

    What men with contentious wives should do – Mike Bamiloye

    Popular filmmaker and clergyman, Evangelist Mike Bamiloye, has advised men with contentious wives on how to better deal with them.

    In a lengthy post on his Instagram page, he stated that when a woman chooses to be arrogant, proud, and unsubmissive to her husband, she has broken the commandment of the Lord, which demands her to respect her husband and be submissive to him.

    He stated that there is no way a woman who lives in perpetual disobedience to the laws of God can make heaven no matter how spiritual she may look before people.

    He urged men to keep holding on to the Lord, noting that he has seen women becoming completely transformed and highly submissive to the man and becoming helpful in his ministry.

    He added that he has seen such a woman becoming a royal gem in the hand of her husband, after a long time of struggles in a contentious marriage.

    He further admonished the men to keep praying for their wives, loving them, and keep playing their own spiritual roles of a Godly man.

    Bamiloye said: “When a woman chooses to be arrogant, proud, and unsubmissive to her husband, she has broken the commandment of the Lord, which demanded from her to respect her husband and be submissive to him, as the Head, just as the Church does to Christ.

    “When a woman chooses to punish a man by denying him access to her body, when the Bible says a wife should not do so in I Corinthians 7, she has broken the Commandment of the Lord and sinned against God.

    “When a woman is trying to be the head of the home when God says it is the spiritual role of the man, but trying to take over the control of the home, demanding that whatever she says must be done, turning the husband into a puppet; such woman has flagrantly discarded the law of the Most High God by disrespecting and dishonouring her husband.

    “Now, when a woman lives like this, be on the Lord’s side. Such is definitely working for the devil, no matter how dedicated she may be to the service of the Lord. Even some Pastors’ wives are in this category. They believe their husbands are hooked and caged; they believe the man would never do anything to tarnish the name of the Lord or allow any scandal to their long-term ministry, SO HE DARE NOT CRY OUT, therefore, they maltreat the men at home and call the shot at home while the man calls the shot in the church. Some ministers of God are crying inside their hearts while they smile at their church congregations.

    “There is no way a woman who lives in perpetual disobedience to the laws of god can make heaven, however spiritual she may look before people.

    “What is my last word to the men who are in the cage of contentious women, keep holding on to the Lord. I have seen such women becoming completely transformed and highly submissive to the man and becoming helpful in his ministry. I have seen such woman becoming a royal gem in the hand of her husband, after a long time of struggles in a contentious marriage. God can do it. Let the woman become your prayer point. Keep loving her. Keep playing your own spiritual roles of a Godly man: love her, cherish and honour her, and keep praying for her. So that you don’t lose your soul. May the Lord heal such a marriage.”

    Mike Bamiloye, the founder of Mount Zion Faith Ministries, has addressed the hypocritical behaviour exhibited by some married Christian women within their matrimonial homes.

    In a Facebook post on his verified handle, Bamiloye observed the so-called women in the Lord are fond of having their own way consistently and fail to submit to their husbands at home.

    These women, he stated, look beautiful and keep smiling beside their husbands in the church, but they are the direct opposite of what they portray outside the moment the couples leave the church.

    The Christian film producer described such women as stubborn, rude, and disrespectful, stressing that they are stingy with their bodies to their husbands.

    He stated: “Some married women in the Lord are fond of having their ways all the time. They never submit to their husbands. They never follow their husbands.

    “They are beautiful to behold in beauty, they smile all the time, they stand beside their husband in the church, but they are not who they claim to be. They are the direct opposite at home. Stubborn, rude, unbroken, disrespectful and very stingy with their body to their husbands.

    “They dictate their terms to give their husbands access to their body. They are hard at home, but soft in the church. Very unsubmissive and insensitive.”

    Bamiloye prayed for husbands married to such women, saying May God Almighty deliver men from such “sisters.”
