The General Evangelist of Christ Apostolic Church Worldwide, Prophet Hezekiah Oladeji is on a five day apostolic visit to Freedom For All Nations Outreach in Pretoria West, South Africa shepherd by his Spiritual son, Prophet Samuel Akinbodunse. The five days apostolic programme is tagged prophetic and miracle conference with the theme, Manifestation of New Glory from November 21st till 25th November, 2024 at 5pm daily.
According to the General Overseer of Freedom For All Nations Outreach and founder of FANO Television, Prophet Samuel Akinbodunse, his spiritual father, Prophet Hezekiah has confirmed his presence for the prophetic and miracle conference.He revealed that the conference will feature salvation,healing,deliverance, signs, wonders, prophetic solutions and answers to myriads of issues plaguing individuals and nations who will participate in the programme.
Prophet Hezekiah Oluboye Oladeji was born into a Baptist family at Edun Abon, Ile Ife in Osun state. Though a religious Christian family, his father also indulged in the traditional religion by way of performing rituals and the likes; hence the family was not saved.
Prophet Hezekiah developed an ailment in his leg which prevented him from going to school, therefore he decided to learn a vocation and his choice was automobile mechanic.
In 1980, his mother died and 4 years later, he left home for Oshogbo; a day in which he incidentally met Jesus. Alighting from the bus at Oshogbo bus park, he heard some people singing a song which translates to “Jesus is calling you friend, come, this world is vanity everything will soon end”.
The trail of the source of this song led him to a church not far off – Christ Apostolic Church, CAC Araromi; a church where his guardian coincidentally attends. It was at this church he received healing for his leg at a crusade Prophet Obadare had there.
Alone in church on one night at about 2.00am, God appeared to Prophet Hezekiah in company of Prophet Ayo Babalola (the first General Evangelist of Christ Apostolic Church) and told him they had a mission for him to the church and also the world. Asked if he would do the work, Prophet Hezekiah said ‘YES’ to the call after which God instructed Apostle Babalola to anoint him with oil.
The oil was physically on his head when he woke up the next morning and was there for another 5 to 6 days; the oil still comes out of his forehead today anytime he engages in some fervent prayers. Efforts to enrol in a seminary in 1991 and 1992 failed as God was nudging him to be taught directly by Him, however he later attended a seminary, but found it unfulfilling.
Though he had been anointed for ministry work, Prophet Hezekiah started a transport business while also working as an automobile mechanic with his partner and friend. However in the bid to bring him back in line with his calling, God orchestrated an event in which one of the vehicles Prophet Hezekiah used for the transport business had an accident at Olode garage where he had come to settle and live.
This was in 1996 and two occupants in the vehicle died and this was also confirmed by the hospital as Prophet Hezekiah was asked to take the corpses to the mortuary. Saddened and weeping because of the event and on the way to the mortuary, God asked him if he was ready for the assignment and the prophet Hezekiah succumbed and said ‘I am’.
Immediately, God asked him to go back and lay hands on the corpses and they both came alive after the touch. This miracle served as the confirmation of the call of God on the life of Prophet Hezekiah. From that point on, he gave out all the vehicles he used for the transportation business, became more active in the ministry and eventually started CAC Canaan Land in 2000.
He is currently the General Evangelist of Christ Apostolic Church Worldwide. He succeeded Prophet S.K Abiara who retired after so many years of propagating the gospel.
