NHLANGANO – Hope Restoration Church members on Saturday showed so much love
for their pastor, Prophet Elijah Fire, by presenting him with gifts worth over
E100 000 and a six tier cake.
The senior prophet turned 40 years in style and his celebration was attended by
Bholoja, who gave an amazing performance and Gospel artist Nothando Dlamini.
Friends and relatives attended the celebration, including church members. The
celebration was held at the Nhlangano branch, popularly known as Bethel, under
the leadership of Senior Seer Joshua Angel, who presented the prophet with E20
000 in cash as a gift. Also present was the prophet’s close friend Sthofen
Ginindza.
Donation
Ginindza pledged to offer E25 000 in the value of sanitary pads to the church in
the honour of his friend’s birthday. He said the donation was on behalf of his
daughter’s foundation which focused on sanitation and other things. Also, he
made an offer for the Nhlangano Church to get KFC every Sunday. Others who
presented gifts to the prophet were Senior Pastor Nkosingiphile Mbhamali from
Christian Revival Church in KwaZulu-Natal, who is also a close friend to the
prophet, the church seers and individual Christians. Mbhamali, who is a liSwati,
is now based in Richards Bay, South Africa where he preaches the Word of God.
Among the seers, first to present the prophet with a gift was the senior seer
who happens to be the senior prophet’s first spiritual son, Joshua Angel.
According to Seer Joshua Angel, he had withdrawn E10 000 to offer as a gift but
later changed his mind to double the amount. Coincidentally, Seer Joshua Angel
was first presented with a E10 000 gift by Prophet Elijah Fire as he also turns
a year older on December 25. The prophetess also gave her husband a gift, which
she did not declare and wished him a happy birthday. They have been married for
12 years now. Meanwhile, Joshua Angel, described the prophet as someone who had
so much love for them as seers and also went overboard to dress them.
Gift
Seer Isaac Blessing from the Siteki branch known as Calvary, gave E5 000 cash as
a gift to the man of God. Seer Isaac Blessing said the prophet took him at the
age of 25, while working at a car wash around Lobamba. He said the prophet
trusted him in so many things, even those that were confidential until this day.
According to Seer Isaac, the prophet then trusted him in leading the branch in
Siteki and before he left for Siteki, the man of God bought him his first car
and last week also blessed him with another. Manzini branch (Shiloh) Seer Wisdom
Salvation, Seer Sharma Glory from the Mbabane branch (Canaan land) and Seer Paul
Zion from Lobamba, also presented their gifts.
Individual Christians also presented their gifts to the prophet. Appreciating
the gifts, the prophet expressed gratitude to Seer Joshua Angel, whom he said
had spoiled him with gifts exceeding E100 000 together with everyone who had
contributed in making the day a success.
