Oritsejafor: How God healed me of aggressive cancer

Ayo Oritsejafor, the founding pastor of Word of Life Bible Church in Delta, has recalled how God healed him of an “aggressive cancer”.

Oritsejafor revealed his cancer diagnosis while addressing his congregation. He also shared the video on his official Instagram page.

He said he left Nigeria for treatment in the United States. He also said a friend who also travelled to the United Kingdom with the same kind of cancer did not survive it.

Although the cleric did not disclose the type of cancer he battled, he said his faith played a crucial role in his recovery.

Oritsejafor said he was healed because God “remembered my heart,”. He said, “I told God, if you save me from this, I will serve you twice more”.

“How do you face cancer and still stand like this? But I haven’t told you—when I was going to America, full of cancer, you didn’t know. I didn’t tell you. I look normal because this is my way of life,” he said.

“When I was leaving for America, somebody I know was leaving for the UK with the same kind of cancer. It is an aggressive cancer.

“I went to the US; he went to the UK. The day I boarded the flight, coming back to Nigeria, he was in a casket, coming back to Nigeria. You hear me? I was with my two feet. I walked onto the plane, but he was not.

“I am not better than him but God remembered me. He remembered my heart. I have always had a heart for God.

“I told God, if you save me from this, I will double my service. I will serve you twice more and he saved me and brought me home. I will sing of the goodness of God.”

Oritsejafor is a former national president of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN).

The cleric is married to Helen and they have three children.
