Apostle Johnson Suleman

It is believed that some people are predestined for a particular task. Apostle Johnson Suleman of Houston TX is one of them. Apostle Suleman was chosen for this wonderful task even before he came into this world. Just days after he was born, a few prophets came all the way from Warri to Bennin (his place of birth). They told his parents that they had a message from God which said, “A prophet who would minister in God’s presence has been born”. Since his parents were Muslims, they could not accept this possibility.

But what has been decided by the Lord cannot be changed. As Suleman grew, his parents noticed that his behavior was different from theirs. Even when visiting the mosque, he had God in his heart. The first time he encountered Christ was during his secondary education. From then on, there was no looking back. Suleman knew what his destiny was.

He started to go out with his brethren for prayers and evangelical purposes. However, there was something missing, which he received shortly afterwards. On June 20, 1994, Suleman had a revelation in which he was given an image of the globe with Acts 10:38 written on it. When he recovered, he went straight to the scriptures to see what was written. It said: “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil, for God was with Him.” That is when he knew he had to travel around the world to spread his word.
