My Story
It is my honor to share my story, hoping it inspires and encourages others to embrace the transformative love of Christ. My life is a living testimony to the unmatched power of God’s grace and mercy. Growing up in the ancient and historic Benin Kingdom, I was born into a polygamous family. Life was challenging, marked by the devastating effects of wickedness, satanic manipulations, witchcraft, and all forms of abuse. My father, a retired military officer, suffered from a partial stroke for over 20 years. This left my family grappling with hardship and uncertainty. Yet, even amid these difficulties, God’s hand of power was ever-present upon my life. At the tender age of 10, I experienced a divine revelation that forever changed the course of my life. In a trance, I saw an angel descending from Heaven on a ladder. The angel placed a staff in my hands before ascending back. This angelic visitation marked the beginning of my calling and planted within me a seed of purpose that has continued to grow.

The Journey of Faith
Through God’s providence, I was baptized and sealed at a young age. However, like many young people, I faced life’s temptations. During my time in Ghana, I succumbed to peer pressure and strayed into worldly pursuits, seeking quick success and fulfillment in the wrong places. I developed destructive habits that nearly derailed my destiny and drew me away from God. But even in my lowest state, the mercy of God found me. His grace turned my life around. Through divine intervention, I met my spiritual father, Apostle Gabriel Lamonte Cross. This covenant relationship was a pivotal turning point in my life. Apostle Cross, now my adopted father in Christ, redefined my identity in Him. He also strengthened the bond between my twin brother, Meshack, our younger brother, Paul, and me. This newfound fellowship and love healed the wounds of the past and gave us a fresh start. This encounter with God’s grace confirmed the vision I received at age 10, setting me firmly on the path to fulfilling His divine purpose for my life.

A Passion for Souls
The trials I endured and the love I now experience in Christ have ignited in me an unquenchable passion for souls and a zeal for discipleship. The Word of God declares, “If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” This truth has become my reality. I firmly believe that no matter how far someone has strayed, God’s love and mercy can redeem and restore. My heart burns for the lost, the forgotten, and those struggling to find their way. The Lord has laid it on my heart not only to preach the gospel but to actively seek out and empower those in need. My personal experiences have equipped me to connect with the broken-hearted, leading them to the redeeming power of Christ and assuring them that they, too, can overcome life’s challenges through His love. This mission drives my unwavering commitment to the Armies of God Evangelical Outreach Network International (AGENOI), where we strive to win souls and disciple them for the Kingdom of God.

A Message to Inspire
If you are reading this, I want you to know that no matter where you are or what you’ve been through, God’s love is greater than your struggles. Just as He turned my life around, He can do the same for you. Let my story remind you that nothing is impossible with God. Surrender your life to Him, and watch as He rewrites your story for His glory. May my testimony encourage you to trust in the Lord’s unfailing love and mercy. To Him alone be all the glory, honor, and praise.

Blessings,
