The Man - Evangelist Oguazi Onyemobi
Evangelist Oguazi Onyemobi is the Founder and President of Jesus Power Outreach Ministries. He is called by God to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the nations of the world in the power of the Holy Spirit. While growing up in a rural community in the eastern part of Nigeria, he saw the devastating effect of idolatry, witchcraft, poverty, war and epidemic on his people. At the age of 18, he was involved in a motor accident in which he sustained multiple compound fractures on both legs. After he was discharged from the hospital on crutches, he was not expecting to walk again without aid. “My life was torn apart by fear, pain and misery and my heart was full of questions about life and the power of God,” said Evangelist Oguazi. He began to find answers to his life’s questions after he gave his life to the Lord Jesus Christ as a Law School undergraduate at the University of Nigeria in November 1982. In February 1983, he was miraculously healed during an evangelistic crusade, and till date, he no longer has need of his crutches. That experience awoke him to the power of God as the solution for man’s fear, pain and misery; he was drawn to the sick, the oppressed and those suffering under idolatry and witchcraft, and he sensed the Lord calling him to bring solution to their needs through the Gospel.
Early Years
As a university student, Evangelist Oguazi regularly went out with fellow college students to high schools, colleges and rural communities in Nigeria preaching salvation, healing and deliverance in the name of Jesus, and God confirmed their message with miracles and signs. He was a member of the Students Christian Movement of Nigeria, where he served as the coordinator of the National Prayer Band for five years, and as the Lagos State Traveling Secretary. He also served as the Prayer Coordinator of the Christian Lawyers Association, Nigerian Law School Chapter.
Ministry Training
He had many personal divine encounters through which the Lord taught him in the areas of prayer, intercession, spiritual warfare, divine healing and aggressive evangelism. As a university student, He led the Prayer Band of the Student Christian Movement and teamed up with some other spiritual warriors to conduct evangelism in streets, parks and buses in Enugu city and thereabout. He joined to organize regular programs to minister the gospel to young people and in high schools, colleges and universities. He traveled with some others to many rural communities in Eastern Nigeria preaching salvation, healing and deliverance in the name of Jesus, and God confirmed their message with miracles and signs. He served in the national body of the Students Christian Movement of Nigeria as the National Affairs Coordinator, National Prayer Secretary and Traveling Secretary for Lagos State. He was also served as the Prayer Coordinator of the Christian Lawyers Association, Nigerian Law School Chapter. He later attended the Faith Clinic Bible School of Late Dr. Ik Ibeneme and traveled as part of his ministry team to different parts of Nigeria.
Full-Time Ministry
Evangelist Oguazi was called to the Nigeria Bar in 1987 and he had a successful practice as a Barrister and Solicitor until he answered God’s call into full-time ministry in 1992. God called him to awaken the Church in the area of prayer, intercession, spiritual warfare and holy living. God has since taken him to different rural and urban communities in Nigeria where he has seen satanic strongholds of idolatry, witchcraft, voodoo, occultism and immorality destroyed. The Lord has also taken him to various nations in Africa, Europe, United States and Mexico to minister the Gospel and set the captives free. In recent times, he has served as the Chairman of Atlantic Zone and the Secretary of the Island/Eti-Osa Province of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN).
