Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ojaja 11, the Ooni of Ife, admitted on Saturday that Jesus Christ is the Lord of lords and the most amazing God who transformed his shame into joy.
The traditional head of state said this at the Christian Association of Nigeria’s (CAN) Grand-finale of the New Year Prayer, which was held in Ile-Afewonro Ife’s Park and Enuwa Square.
Oba Ogunwusi, who led various Christian songs of praise and worship during the service, emphasized that it is a good thing to constantly praise and respect the Lord Jesus Christ.
“When I look back, I observe that my life is full of God’s wonders and miracles despite all challenges faced but today, the Lord gave me victory over them all.
“I sat down here last year with a lot of tribulations and storms of life which I cannot explain but to God be the Glory that my shame has turned to celebration.
“I observed where I started, hitherto, the Lord has helped me. It is clearly stated to me that the Lord is Alive. Fool is anyone that says there’s no God,” he said.
While charging Christians to hold firmly unto Jesus Christ, the traditional ruler said, “truly, He (Jesus) is the son of God and He is the one that lives with him (Ogunwusi) on the throne”.
