Welcome to Mitchelle Obatu's Blog

“I was involved in Satanism for 19 years, surrendered to Jesus Christ after a failed kidnapping, and have been involved in ministry for 22 years,” she said.   Growing up she experienced much spiritual, emotional physical and sexual abuse as a result of Satanism and other influential cults.  “My main purpose in the cult was to infiltrate Christian churches and I was groomed by the pastor of their Christian church, who happened to be the Satanic high priest of the coven as well.   “I felt completely comfortable interacting and communicating with demons and forces in the spiritual world, and fortunately never had the chance to decide whether I wanted to be a Satanist, seeing as that decision was made for me.”   She explained distinctly remembering having a profound spiritual experience during a Satanic celebration performing blood rituals.  “I was in the process of having an abortion and cried out to my sworn enemy, Jesus Christ. To my amazement ...

It's awesome when we also admit our weaknesses so people will know we are just as human and ordinary as they are and it's only the grace of God that helps us live by each day.  Nick Vujicic gave such example concerning how he battles depression. He admits that he has not only faced depression, but also a "deep dark valley" when it comes to faith, which only the Word of God helped him overcome. He said he faced "merciless bullying" and "deep depression" as a child but the "beautiful Christian home" that his parents in Australia provided was his place of refuge. Admitting that he has periods of deep spiritual darkness in life, he said about himself, "As strong as I am in my faith and talking to presidents about God, there are times when Nick has his ups and downs."

Controversial Pastor and Founder and Leader of International Godsway Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim, a self acclaimed angel, has denied ever trying to fly to heaven. Bishop Daniel Obinim made the news recently when he was seen in a viral video in what some said was a botched flight to heaven.  He was seen opening his arms and flapping what can be described as imaginary wings to be airborne to meet his father Jesus. However, moments later, Bishop Obinim ran and threw himself unto the members of his church who caught him. Speaking to Okay FM Friday, Bishop Obinim who was not happy with the insults that attended the circulation of the video explained that he throws himself onto his members when he’s excited while prophesying. “That act of throwing myself onto my junior pastors or my church members is not new, I’ve been doing it for sometime now. I usually do that when I’m ministering and there’s a powerful prophesy, I get excited in the process and I throw myself...

Someone asked for this so here it is: Jesus Christ never pressured people into giving Him money. In fact, there is no evidence of Him ever asking people for money. World-renowned evangelist Billy Graham says the only verse that revealed how Jesus supported His ministry and little band of disciples is Luke 8:3, which says that a few women of wealth quietly supported His work. In his column in The Kansas City Star, Graham writes that people should not draw the wrong conclusion from the verse.  "Every ministry needs financial support, and it's not wrong to make God's people aware of those needs and seek their help," says Graham. "The Apostle Paul, for example, went out of his way to urge churches to give money for Christians who were in great need. This giving, he wrote, 'is not only supplying the needs of the Lord's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God' (2 Corinthians 9:12)." Graham reminds pe...

In the wake of the death of renowned evangelist Billy Graham, controversial faith-healing televangelist Benny Hinn, who has often been criticized for his endorsement of the prosperity gospel, said in a stunning confession Wednesday that sometimes he has taken the erroneous gospel too far. "We get attacked for preaching prosperity, well it's in the Bible, but I think some have gone to the extreme with it sadly, and it's not God's word what is taught and I think I'm as guilty as others.  "Sometimes you go a little farther than you really need to go and then God brings you back to normality and reality," Hinn, 65, said as he reflected on Graham's death with a ministry colleague in a Facbook Live broadcast . He admitted that as he has grown older and come to understand the Bible more, he now realizes that some of the things he learned from preachers when he was growing up aren't biblical and the popular interpretation of the pros...

There was a whole lot of nudity at London Fashion week. Even though the models were draped in plenty of material, their bodies were still left completely exposed. Designers played into the sheer craze by choosing transparent fabric. Fishnet was also incorporated into the collection, creating a peek-a-boo affect on the skin. The more modest garments in the line still left nothing to the imagination. Flesh-coloured trousers created major camel-toe on the runway. String tops were also a common theme, with the lattice work doing little to cover the models’ boobs. The sheer look was even carried into the more casual garments. One of the long-sleeved tops covered the arms , while leaving the chest completely exposed. At New York fashion week, models were seen wearing vagina wigs. There was also a lot of naked dress trend, bondage trend and a lot of nipples. DailyStar * Do you perceive what's happening?  

Billy Graham, the world's foremost evangelist died at 99. He preached the gospel to more people than anyone in history.  Now he is home with the Lord he so faithfully served. What an abundant entrance into heaven he must have received! Just imagine his "receiving line" of millions who are in heaven because of his ministry.  The church worldwide gives thanks for the immense impact of Mr. Graham's life in advancing the gospel here and around the world. His legacy will live until Christ returns. Billy Graham modeled for us many crucial life lessons. He showed us that integrity matters. When God called me to preach the gospel as a teenager, the model for ministry integrity was Billy Graham. Five decades later, he is still the model. His integrity remained sterling since he came to national prominence in 1949.  Now, that's long-term faithfulness. Early in his ministry, Mr. Graham and his associates signed the "Modesto Manifesto," volun...

The quest for immortality continues. With technological advancements, some scientists believe the key to immortality is right around the corner.  According to Dr. Ian Pearson, the resources to live forever could be available by 2050 but will only really be for the rich and famous. Overtime, he hopes it will become available every class.  “Most people on middle-class incomes and reasonable working-class incomes can probably afford this in the 2060s. So anyone 90 or under by 2060. By 2060, people like you or I will be able to buy it, and by 2070 people in poor countries on modest incomes will be able to buy it,” he said, speaking of the global market for “a sort of electronic immortality.” To put some of these dates into perspective, Pearson explained that anyone born in the year 1970, meaning that they are 48 this year, has a chance of seeing some of this technology. He explains that “anybody under 50 has got a good chance of it, and anyone under 40 almost d...

They call it Lulwa and it costed $1 million. It was created by Debbie Wingham, ‘the world’s most expensive designer’, and showcased at the 2018 Dubai Bride Show, in the UAE. Wingham is the creator of some of the most expensive objects of desire in history, including a $16 million shoe, a $4.8 million black diamond dress, and the world’s most expensive wedding cake which was valued at a staggering $67 million. Lulwa was unveiled on the opening day of the recently concluded 2018 Dubai Bride Show, and later cut and served to guest of the event.

Bay View is a small upscale community in Michigan’s Lower Peninsula, which prohibits non-Christian from buying or even inheriting a home there. What started out as a modest camping ground for Methodist families, over 140 years ago, has blossomed into one of the most beautiful resort communities in the United States.  Bay View was named one of the 12 “Prettiest Painted Places” in the U.S., for its 444 Victorian-era cottages, fondly called ‘gingerbread houses’, and it is often referred to as a summer vacation paradise.  However, it’s not a paradise open to all, at least not if you actually want to own property here, as according to a law dating back to the 1940s only practicing Christians are allowed to buy houses, or even inherit them. Documents dating back to the early 20th century show that Bay View’s original membership requirements were a minimum age of 21 and being of “good faith and moral character”.  The Christian e...

Evangelist Billy Graham has cautioned Christians against buying objects that claim to possess spiritual healing powers , as such items — no matter how innocent they seem — are demonic and opposed to God . He said this when he answer someone's question on whether or not "lucky charms" actually affect the well being of users. The reader wrote: "I have bad arthritis, and I saw an ad in one of those supermarket papers for a gold-plated charm that they say will heal me. The ad says it's been prayed over by a spiritual healer, and has special magical healing powers. Should I send for it? It's kind of expensive." Graham began by urging the reader to refrain from wasting their money on such an item, or anything else that claims to have magical powers. "Nothing like this has any medical evidence to support its dubious claims, nor should you trust what the sellers say about it," he said. The evangelist noted that the Bible tells...

Mariah Carey's sister, Alison Carey, is said to have made some startling revelations about Mariah's childhood. According to Alison Carey , her family used to be a part of a cult that practiced satanic rituals, including animal sacrifices and bizarre sexual acts. Detailing their unconventional upbringing to Radar Online , Alison claimed their mother, Patricia, used to bring her kids to a huge “castle” in Long Island, N.Y. to participate in rituals with other members of the secret sect. “It was there that the satanic rituals, led by my mother, took place,” she recalled. “I remember people wearing hooded cloaks, standing in a circle and chanting.” Alison, 56, also said her earliest memory was when she was taken to a service at a huge “castle” in Long Island, N.Y. There, she claimed, she and her siblings witnessed shocking acts unfit for children. “There was also sexual activity and animal sacrifices, which the participants believed would please the deity t...

It's Valentine's day and I want to do a throwback of an article I wrote about it last year.  'I deliberately missed out on the Valentine day post. But hey, celebrating Valentine is beautiful when you celebrate it right.  It's all about love, clean clear love. I mean it's a good thing if one day is brought out to celebrate romance between married couples or just love with no sex attached. But unfortunately, it is not so. Valentine is a celebration that promotes sexual immorality and lewdness. Also called Lovers' day, there are different versions of stories on the origin of Valentine's day.  Some say Valentine is a martyred Roman Saint who secretly performed Christian marriages for soldiers without permission.  Another version say it originated from a Roman pagan festival called Lupercalia held on February 15 as a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture. St Valentine Nowadays, Valentine's day mea...

As reported by DailyMail , "A transgender woman has become the first in the world to exclusively breastfeed her baby despite not giving birth nor undergoing gender-reassignment surgeries. The 30-year-old woman, who has not been identified, told doctors at Mt Sinai's Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery that her partner was pregnant but did not wish to breastfeed, and she hoped to try instead.  For three-and-a-half months before the birth, the woman was put on a dose of hormone replacement therapy which the patient obtained from Canada, as well as breast pumping, until she could produce eight ounces of milk a day. By the time the child was born, the patient was producing enough milk to exclusively nurse for six weeks, then continued breastfeeding alongside other food sources for six months. Uniquely, she hadn't had any gender reassignment surgeries like a breast augmentation or a vaginoplasty to construct a vagina or vulva, which can...

A 22 year old man, Eli Diaghilev, disguised as a woman named Arina to participate in 2018 Miss Virtual Kazakhstan beauty contest in order to prove a point to his friends after an argument they had about female beauty. Eli, who is a model, argued that in the old days women valued qualities like individuality and charisma, while most young women nowadays just follow the most popular trends – be they in fashion, makeup or hairstyle – thinking it makes them beautiful. So Eli enrolled for the beauty contest and with the help of a make up artist and a hairstylist, he was transformed into Arina.  Surprisingly, Arina made it to the finals of the beauty contest but because he had already proven his point, soon after the finalists were announced, he released a video revealing that the popular female contestant was actually him in disguise. He explained his decision to enter the Miss Virtual Kazakhstan beauty contest as a way of convincing young girls of how easy physica...

This man, John Bevere, before he ever became a Christian struggled with an addiction to pornography. When he began following Jesus in 1979, he thought it would go away—but it didn't.  He even tried getting a respected preacher to pray the addiction away in 1984, but that too failed. For years, Bevere grieved his sin but couldn't get free. In 1985, he went on a four day fast, which was exactly 9 month after the preacher prayed for him, Bevere got his deliverance. He went to God later to ask why H e didn't deliver him when the preacher prayed for him and then God showed him he'd been grieving for the wrong reasons.  When he went to the preacher to pray for him, he was more concerned that his porn addiction will keep him from the ministry. So the focus of his sorrow was on himself and not on God. But when he returned to God in 1985, his focus was on God. He said he was fed up hurting the heart of the One he (Bevere) loved. God wanted him to come to the real...

This article spoke to me and I hope it speaks to you too. When you're in a season of waiting and holding onto God's promises, one of the most painful things is seeing someone else walking in the very breakthrough you'd give anything to have. It feels like salt in a wound, and if you're not careful, you can allow this to magnify your perceived lack. Today I want to tell you that this thinking is not helping you in any way, and in fact, it could be keeping you from your breakthrough.   What if I told you that the thing you're jealous of might very well be the answer you're looking for? Get your hopes up as you watch this week's video: In a nutshell: When you're trying to change your life, you have to change the way you think first . Let's use the illustration of money as an example. Let's say you're broke, and you've been broke your whole life, and you come from a family who has been broke, and your grandparents were...

Facebook is now marketing to children as young as 6 years old with the launch of Facebook Messenger Kids in December. Mental health professionals are pushing back, even sending a letter to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg asking him to reverse course. However, Facebook stands firm in its decision to expand its market share to children as young as kindergartners. Christian child psychiatrist Daniel Amen told CBN News he's "very concerned" about the new app.  "It reminds me of why McDonald's has Happy Meals: they're going after the next generation," he said. "And Facebook and other social media sites are doing exactly the same thing." Dr. Amen warned parents of young children to steer clear of the app for many years to come. "I think a good time to be thinking about allowing children on social media is around 14," he said. Dr. Amen sited a number of studies that reveal the amount of time a child spends in front of a s...

His name is Kyle Potts. He is a transgender woman but has no plans on removing his male sex organs. "Unlike most transgender women, I am proud of the fact that I have male genitalia, I never wish to change them," Potts said. "My doctors tailor my hormones so there is a high-enough testosterone level to allow me to still use my male genitalia during sex." Kyle Potts                                         Kylie Jenner Potts said by keeping his male genitalia, he won't be put into a gender-comforming "box," and is comfortable having both a penis and 34DDD breasts. "I have no plans to remove them, there are too many constraints on gender where people believe they have to choose male or female," he added. Adding to the list of his cosmetic trophy,  Kyleigh Potts has bl...

Virtual reality, which can easily allow churches to have global presence and foster diversity and inclusiveness, is far more enabling than live-streaming, which numerous megachurches are currently using to conduct multi-site worship services.  So are we going to see a rise of VR churches in the near future as the technology becomes cheaper and more accessible? "Attend a real church in virtual reality," says the website of a VR church established by Los Angeles, California-based Pastor D.J. Soto and whose mission is "to explore and communicate God through virtual reality, augmented reality, and next generation technologies."  The pastor who says he has a burden to reach out to people in unusual places spoke about his vision with pastors and church planters, he realized that Christian ministers are not quite ready to try out this new technology. Wired author Kristen French identifies herself as an atheist but likes the idea of VR churches. "...
