Bishop David Angel Speaks Volume On The Journey Of Joshua Generation

The Journey of Joshua Generation International Fire Tabernacle is devine and the ministry is based on a prophecy, healing and deliverance; and God has been faithful all the time.

David, the Bishop and the general overseer of Joshua City, said he was born a twins in a Christian family many years back. His mother was a prophetess while the father was a general overseer in apostolic (The Apostlic).

According to Bishop David Angel, his mother had a bridge in delivery. His twin brother was born in the hospital and after fifteen hours of time, he was born in the church. "Because of how the delivery was, the people who were with my mother  started saying that this is a pastor and truly today I found myself in the vineyard.

"I had not wanted to be a pastor. My plan was to be  a businessman who read architectural design in the university, aiming to be a full-time businessman in building industry but God said no.

The general overseer of Joshua Generation City said he has worked in many churches including the Living Faith Church, also know as the Winners' Chapel. "But in 1996 Bishop David Oyedepo, the founder of Living Faith Church met me and said that I should change my name to David because God told him that I will do more for Him and that was how the journey began. 

"Along the line my daughter had an attack and she died. I ran to God and said to Him, bring back my daughter and I will serve you. God answered my prayer and brought back my daughter. Today, my daughter is a barrister.

The name of the church was given to us at Gwarinpa House Fellowship.  We didn't plan to have a church but as I was praying and blessing the people, they saw the miracles, signs and wonders. They called themselves together and started fellowship, vigil and on Sunday we did a service and a church was born.

There was no official plan of forming a church. I was in a fasting and prayer and God gave me a name after Joshua in the Bible and said I will be the one taking people to the land. That was how Joshua Generation came about and whoever gets here gets to the land.

Bishop, tell us the challenges you face in the course of this journey.

There were challenges, serious ones,  but my belief is that when God calls you, he backs you up. I was not scared of the challenges because I believed God is there for me.
