NIGERIAN preacher Temitope Balogun Joshua’s prophecy about the just ended Chelsea-Bayern Munich match came under scrutiny after a bold Bayern Munich player journalists claimed they heard him allegedly stating was going to score, failed to secure a single goal.
It was claimed the misunderstanding was to do with TB Joshua’s strong accent ‘which is difficult to hear’.
The bald-headed player, widely believed was Roben missed a penalty which could have landed his team the UEFA championship.
A fortnight ago, TB Joshua prophesied that he foresaw a Chelsea loss in the UEFA final, although he was quick to point out that after prayers, with God all things were possible.
But the question on many minds Monday was whether the prayers really changed the match results in favour of Chelsea or the Man of God missed the prophesy.
Words of TB Joshua, who is seriously hated by president Robert Mugabe’s Zanu PF party, were heard vocalising a prediction two weeks ago in which it was believed he saw a Bayern player with a bold head, with the aid of a tall player scoring a goal that will sink Chelsea.
It was also believed there might have been a misunderstanding on TB Joshua’s Chelsea prophecy arising from his strong Nigerian accent, difficult to decipher, which may have confused journalists leading them to report incorrectly. An opinion forwarded editors by aZimEye reader Monday afternoon defended TB Joshua. The man only identified as Afi Annan, wrote:
“You said God had proved T.B. Joshua wrong. Concerning what! Are you talking about Chelsea – your club? Were you not listening to T.B. Joshua three Sunday services ago when he said, “Pray for Chelsea. I’m seeing a ball headed against Chelsea. Pray. You have two weeks more to pray. With God, all things are possible”.
“Are you saying that with God, all things are not possible? Are you not happy that God makes all things possible? Remember, T.B. Joshua said he did not watch the game to the end. Prophet Joshua did emphasize that Chelsea needed a lot of prayers to succeed. As a prophet, even if he saw that the team would clinch the cup, it would have been immodest of him to say so, as supporters of the other team might start attacking him. He was simply diplomatic in delivering the message of God and he said the first goal would come from Chelsea’s opponents, through a header. This happened. What else were you looking for? God is God of the entire universe!
“In your comments, you praised the president of Ghana. Can you say that you do not know that he has the same spiritual father as Malawi’s President? How can you praise the president Ghana and yet condemn T.B. Joshua. This is hypocrisy. Condemning a prophet of God does not amount to His Word becoming meaningless, untruthful and false. Human beings look at the face but God looks at the hearts of men. What is wisdom to men may be foolishness before God. Let God be reverred instead of man. A word should be sufficient for the wise.”
The prophet said he was forced to prophesy after rumours circulated that he had predicted a UEFA final.
