Ordained into ministry in 1994 by the legendary Archbishop Benson Idahosa now of blessed memory, Prophet Dr. Anene Nwachukwu was born by the scion of the priesthood, the now Bishop Dr. Arthur Nwachukwu; the original founder and Bishop of Rhema Deliverance Mission Inc. Besides his later clergy father and founder of Rhema Deliverance Mission Inc, Anene Nwachikwu, the second child of their parents has three other siblings that are also ministers of the gospel under the same mission but different assemblies. Their mother too is a pastor. This explains why Anene is a product of a priesthood family. \u201cI come from a royal priesthood family\u201d, he reveals to Christian Benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter he had meticulously served his father in Onitsha where he pioneered many branches for the church, Anene moved to Lagos in 1999 and pioneered a branch of Rhema Deliverance Mission Inc at Trade Fair complex, Lagos. By 2001 the young Prophet Nwachukwu had expanded the frontiers of the church in Lagos. He bought for the church six plots of land off Odo Eran, Okokomaiko, near Army cantonment, Badagry Expressway and continued growing and expanding the church in leaps and bounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prophet Dr. Anene Nwachukwu was called into a deliverance and prophetic ministry by God. Anene\u2019s confidence in the awesome power of God beyond any shaking is boosted by his focus and commitment to the area of ministry that God has called him. He advises: \u201cI want to advise every minister of God to know their specific areas of callings and stay therein. Many misters of God today are square pegs in round holes. That is why most of them are suffering in ministry,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Anene Nwachukwu explained to Christian Benefits magazine that in the prophetic ministry into which he said God had called him; God honours every word he utters with signs and wonders following. \u201cGod said to me, my son, if you are faithful to me I will be faithful to you. Prophesy my words. So, any word from my mouth changes situations, no matter how bad they were. And that is why I am not afraid of anything. That is why in Rhema we say no shaking, because when you know who called you, you will know how to move. The scriptures clearly states that those that do know their God shall be strong and do exploits. When you are sure of what you are speaking there is no shaking. Problems, tribulations, afflictions can come but you will remain unshakable and unruffled when you look up to God,\u201d he assures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prophet Dr. Anene Nwachukwu has had his own fair share of frustrations and challenges in ministry, particularly in the year 2000 when he said life was miserable for him. He identified extreme poverty as one of the major challenges he contended with at the early years of his ministry before God began increasing him on all fronts. At those times of challenges in the ministry the amiable servant of God pointed at the conviction of his calling by God as his major source of encouragement in overcoming those difficult times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
.\u201cSo by the year 2001 I started having breakthrough as the Lord started increasing His church. While He was increasing us, beloveth, people started paying tithes to the church, and also blessing me too personally. However, I would never forget the day my former landlord where I lived then at Satellite town sold his house over my head at a period that I just newly got married to my wife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhen the house was sold, my wife and I were literally sold along with the house without any prior notice. One morning, someone just appeared and said he is now the landlord of the house and he had come to take possession of the house. So, we hurridlt packed out of the house, yet the crisis continued. But I thank God for my wife because she encouraged me. With the little amount of money on me then, we bought a piece of land; eventually built our own house and became landlords in Lagos,\u201d the Onitsha-born Anene Nwachukwu recalled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The amiable prophet regards Jesus Christ has his role model both in life and ministry. According to him, aside Jesus Christ and his father, Bishop Arthur Nwachukwu, he has no other mentor in life and ministry. \u201cI have many instructors but one spiritual father, and that is my biological father, Bishop Arthur Nwachukwu (now late) to whom God originally gave the vision of Rhema Deliverance Mission Inc,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The prophet sees a brighter future for Nigeria in spite of her challenges. He said Nigeria is a great country that God loves so much. He implored both the leadership and entire citizens of the county to humble themselves, repent from their sins and return to God for God to restore the land Nigeria according to 1 Chronicles 7:14. Prophet Anene Nwachukwu identified occultism, wickedness and corruption as the banes of the country. “But one thing that I know is that those that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. Believers don\u2019t look up to the government because our blessings don\u2019t come from the government. Every good and perfect gift comes from above; and from the father of light. God will heal our land (Nigeria) because we the believers are praying for the country,\u201d Anene Nwachukwu finally assured. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Coming from a clan of a popular Christian priesthood in Onitsha, Anambra state, Prophet Dr. Anene Nwachukwu boasts of a fortified and solid ministerial background such that he can confidently assure his followers and the members of his church, Rhema Deliverance Mission Inc, Lagos, that no shakings can ruffle any member of the renowned prophetic […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":383,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-382","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ministry"},"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/382","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=382"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/382\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":387,"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/382\/revisions\/387"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/383"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=382"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=382"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christianbenefitsmagazine.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=382"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
