"Are There No Good Schools In This Country?" - Bishop David Oyedepo.
"Are There No Good Schools In This Country?" - Bishop David Oyedepo.
The founder of living Faith Church Worldwide, also called Winners Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo has in the Thursday edition of the week of Spiritual Emphasis, rhetorically questioned parents sending their children abroad without a proper spiritual guardian taking care of them. He made these assertions about the upbringing of children, in his message titled: Understanding the wonders of divine direction.
According to him, some parents have contributed to the destruction of their children's destiny by sending them abroad. He said, it could go two ways for every parent. Either the good outcome or the bad one. "Some parents even go as far as sending their children to Primary School abroad! What nonsense? Are we living on trees here? Are there no schools in this country?" He said.
He further emphasized, "you deny the child the valuable home training that you owe the child. You send them to a Non-christian School with no spiritual guardian. Then when the child comes back either smoking or on drugs, you begin to go for prayers. Go and ask parents that take care of derelict children. Ask them how they cope."
The bishop went on to advise his congregation not to take advantage of their wealth to do such things and not allow God's prosperity to become a curse to them. "You use electricity to do a lot of good things, but will you touch live wire? See, if you fail in your responsibility as a parent, then you have failed", he said.
