Tell us the name of your Ministry
The name of my ministry is My Redeemer Liveth Zion Adoration Ministry.
You are also known as Adazion, what inspired you to take up that name?
People used to know me with Ijeoma, if you ask my workers they would say, if you are giving prophecy your name is Ijeoma, but when it is singing, Adazion. So people know me more with Sister Ijeoma. But between 2018, 2019, I was just alone and something came to me and say ah, you know you are a daughter of Zion, I just began to answer the name, especially on my Facebook page, Adazion IJ.
How did you start, I mean, how did you get the calling?
When I was growing, by the age of 12 years, I began to hear from God, I began to see that God wanted to make use of me, and my mother revealed the prophecy that was given to them before I was conceived that their first child would work in God’s vineyard. I think the first miracle God used me to do is the miracle of a young man that ate poison, then I was still a child, the first miracle God used me to do was recorded at 17 years, He said bless the water and I blessed the water, when the young man drank from the water he vomited the poison and he was made whole. The second miracle was my younger sister, the same mother, the same father, she had been to different hospitals, and God said bless the water and she will be made whole, and God healed her. The third one was my uncle’s son, he was afflicted with arrow of short life, and he died in my hands, but God resurrected him to the glory of God. At the age of 17 years he began to direct me, that is how I came across blessing water, I bless water a lot, because when I bless it, it does miracle, kidney will be restore, I don’t know how God do it but the only thing is that when I hear the testimonies I like it.
How do you convince an ordinary person that indeed this is a miracle from God?
I have somebody that is a Moslem, he never believed in Christianity but God healed him and made him to believe, but the most important thing is when God did it people don’t have choice than to believe, whether Christian, whether Moslem, when you see what God has done, you will be marveled to believe. By the special grace of God, in my ministry I have Moslems that I impacted and they turned to be Christians when they see what God is doing. So in my ministry I can testify that I have Moslems, even in my online followers, somebody said I am a Moslem, a strong one but this woman made me to believe in Christianity, and by the special grace of God, they have once carried a Moslem who cannot work, came to the ministry, after the prayer, he was healed and he return back again to testify that he came here and God healed him, so when God did his own thing, whether believer or unbeliever, they will know that it is the hand work of God.
With all you have been doing, people don’t know you that much, why are your activities not publicized?
You know nothing announce people than social media or media people, so much that people would go as far as to pay money so that media can carry them, because if you are not carried nobody will recognize you, you will be known in that area where you perform the miracle, but to go worldwide, nobody will know you. Though my ministry has been there, by the grace of God, we are heading to 10 years, and in this 10 years I was not online, nobody knew me online, people started knowing me online when I entered online, I entered online in 2018, December and since then people began to know me as IJ, although most people know me with the song ‘carry me de go my husband’s house’ or ‘Okechi’ so most people don’t know me as a prophetess but it was the song that announced the name, from 2018, 2019 till date my name came to be known because of social media. I believe that when you are growing in the ministry, lack of sponsor, lack of support can make you not to push the word far the way you would want people to know about it, but by the special grace of God, God is making name for himself, people have started knowing about me now that I am in the social media.
How do you touch lives through your ministry?
I will say it is by the grace of God. Naturally I am the type of person that has soft mind. I don’t like to see people cry over what they need. I can give you my last card, naturally, apart from having a ministry. Then having a ministry is a plus to it. I will say in my ministry I have widows forum where I take care of widows, give them food, I can go to hospitals, pay for people that are in the hospitals that do not have money to go home, discharge them to go home. I visit prisoners, I go to motherless baby homes, orphanages. Then individuals that have house problems, I can support with what I have. If I have, maybe needs of 250,000, 200,000, 300, 000, I can help, but if I see, it is up to 1million, I did not have, I can give half of what I have to support, by the special grace of God through the help of my members all over the world, not by my power, because who I am today is through their assistance and their support. So through their support I am helping out the little way I can.
And by the special grace of God, I just woke up one day and said I want to build a free school for children of the widows, and I bought the land, that was last year, but I have not build it, because I am not financially capable now to do it, buy I will do it because it is the covenant that I have signed with God, to give them a good life.
I bought the land in Owerri, Imo State, when I have the money I will start it, I want to start, not that if I call people now they will not support, but I want to lay the foundation before people can come in, so I want to have the money and lay the foundation, and now tell people for people to see before they come in, and make it a reality.
