Apostle Joel Ogebe, founder and senior pastor of House of Salem Ministry, has in a video released to his official facebook account a few minutes ago, spoke about prophets who take money for counselling and impartation.
Apostle Joel said that many false prophets used the case of Samuel and Saul to validate their actions.
Meanwhile, the example we know of was that the initiative of Saul’s giving to Samuel was Saul’s decision and not Samuel’s demand for something, even though at the time it was their custom to give to prophets. As the popular saying goes, if you give to prophets, you receive prophets’ reward.
He added that true prophets will never compel anyone to give to them, which means a prophet receives. A prophet doesn’t take, as taking is an act of the will of the prophets, but reception is a response from the prophet to someone’s action. He added that a prophet could receive a gift if it was given to him as an honour and not that he demanded it.
Prophet Joel stated unequivocally that prophets who charge fees to see him are criminals in disguise because the bible teaches that freely we receive, freely we should give.
