Divine Deliverance Bible Church Inc, Ekwulobia came into existence in the year 2006 at a barbing salon shop located at Mmuoduaju Ezeama’s shop in Enugwu village, Aguluezechukwu. Then, it was known as Divine Ministry. They held their prayer meeting every Saturday evening after barbing at the same shop. At this time, the Lord instructed his servant, then Pastor Chika Emmanuel to enroll into Bible College to acquire more knowledge for the great work ahead of him. Even while in school, God was doing great miracles in the life of people through him which prompted the members to look for another place because the shop could no longer contain people. They relocated to a combined double shop at Sam’s bread compound in Enugwu village, Aguluezechukwu.
It was at this time that God gave Pst. Chika as he was fondly called a vision of an annual programme titled, ”I MUST CARRY MY BABY”. The programme was to bring deliverance to the barren, the sick, the demon possessed or those held bondage by evil powers. The programme was followed by many miracles, breakthroughs and testimonies so much so that the shop could no longer accommodate people. This again prompted the people to start looking for a land in the year 2012. By God’s grace, Umuezenwa family in Okpo village, Ekwulobia rented a plot of land to Pst. Chika at the back of Ekwulobia township stadium, which gave birth to the name, “Church Azu stadium”. Pst. Chika built a befitting place of worship on the land and continued the work of God and the yearly programme “I MUST CARRY MY BABY” which comes up every October.
In few years, the church became so popular and one of the fastest growing pentecostal churches in Aguata and its environs. To the glory of GOD, it was at the back of the stadium that the church was registered at the Corporate Affairs Commission, CAC, as “DIVINE DELIVERANCE BIBLE CHURCH INC.” It was also there that the church began to evangelize and to preach the word of God in different radio stations known as “HOUR OF FREEDOM”.
Pst. Chika, a man who God has revealed himself to and showed him the way to approach him always, spends most of his time seeking God’s power on the mountain following the footsteps of prophets Moses and Elijah and the Lord Jesus Christ. He also did not hide this from the people of God which prompted him to take people to the mountain every beginning of the year, to commit them to God. The great miracles and testimonies that followed his calling made people to nickname him “The original servant of God”.
Again, the church building at the back of the stadium Ekwulobia stadium could no longer accommodate people as such through the grace and mercy of God, the church acquired a big land at the back of Aguata Boys, Ula Ekwulobia where has become the permanent site of the church. They, immediately, commenced building a cathedral for God at the site known as “DIVINE VILLA CATHEDRAL”. To the glory of God, the cathedral has been completed and ready to be dedicated to God. This year’s annual programme, titled “MOVING TO THE NEXT LEVEL AND I MUST CARRY MY BABY”, which started on Tuesday 24th October 2023 and that will end tomorrow, Sunday 29th October, 2023, will be the commencement of worship at Divine Villa Cathedral, Azu Aguata Boys, Ula Ekwulobia.
Rev. Chika Emmanuel (The Original) and the entire members of Divine Deliverance Bible Church, Azu Aguata Boys cordially invite you, lovers of God and good things to join them tomorrow as they dedicate the cathedral to God Almighty. The special guests of honour at the event will be members of the disability community who are as well are bosom friends of Rev. Emmanuel.
To God be the glory!
