Richest Pastors in Africa

Get to know about the top Richest Pastors in Africa. If we are asked one thing which Africa is blessed with, we’ll say powerful, rich, and wealthy pastors. In short, Africa is the leading continent when it comes to figuring out the most popular pastors around the world. This leaves us wondering and puzzling our minds with lots of questions. Could it be that God has decided to favor Africa these days as it was the case with the Israelite in the past? Or better still could it be that Africa is a blessed holy land that is fertile for the production of God’s servants? Could it be that there is a hidden mystery behind the popping-up of these many wealthy African Prophets that we have today? These are questions that are very difficult to answer.

While everyone dwells in doubts, we can’t simply make affirmations that they are from God or not. Jesus Christ himself said that whoever attributes the works of the Holy Spirit to Satan will never be forgiven. That’s why we shouldn’t be quick in saying that they are from God or they are from Satan. We should rather follow the advice of Apostle John and Paul who were the immediate disciples of Christ. They recommended that we should not be quick in believing anyone who comes in the name of Jesus. And that we should rather test their teachings to see if they come from God. We test their teachings with those of Jesus Christ who is the one and only teacher. He left his teachings in the Holy Bible which is our main standard of life today. Let’s now reveal the richest pastors in Africa from their estimated Net Worth.

Are the richest pastors in Africa from God?

List of richest pastors in Africa

I would have loved to answer this question, but who gave me the right to do so? Why should we worry ourselves whether they are from God or not? Let’s rather make sure that what they teach reflects the teachings of Jesus Christ. It’s not strange for God to bless his servants. But we must always have one thing in mind which is the fact that we shall all stand on a line with these pastors on the last day for judgment. Pastors won’t be spared from God’s judgment. The Scriptures from Apostle James clearly point out that pastors would receive the worst judgment. That’s why they must be very careful in the way they do God’s work. And on the other hand, Apostle Peter in his written scriptures also points out that Pastors who do their work well shall be crowned to rule with Christ.
