Bishop Irabor Wisdom, the Presiding Bishop of Answers’ Assembly Warri Delta sent an important message on divorce to his followers on Social Media.
On his popular Facebook page, he said that he celebrates the Grace that has kept Kenneth Copeland and Gloria Copeland for 60 solid years in marriage. But let us not forget for him to come into the fullness of that Grace, he was divorced twice in 1955 and 1958 before he finally married Gloria in 1963. He said that we should always give people room to get it right after they get it wrong because that an event failed does not mean, you have failed. You are not a failure because an event failed but you are a failure because you stopped trying.
Speaking further, he said, “Thank God he was not a Nigerian preacher, his ministry would have ended prematurely for divorcing twice.” He then claimed that we love and enjoy his prosperity mantle because we did not know of his initial marital struggles. Only in Nigeria, will a Pastor fail in one area and become useless in other areas. Before you argue with him that he was divorced, men of God, who respect and honour marital vows in Nigeria, will not have had anything to do with him,
He then revealed that people celebrate the wisdom of God in my writings but he got the Impartation to write with wisdom from Dr. Mike Murdock’s book, the one who is also divorced and has remained unmarried till date. ‘Don’t bury people with their problems and always give them room to rise again and live again. Never allow the bad thing they suffer makes you miss the good thing they offer.,” he said.
Finally, he said that to focus on Kenneth Copeland’s 2 failed marriages, is to miss the prosperity of Grace in his life and to miss the Grace that has kept him in his third marriage for 60 years. To focus on the divorce of Dr. Mike Murdock is to die of foolishness, even though you lived in the generation of a wise man, whose wisdom is contagious.
