Dr. (Mrs.) Shade D. K. Olukoya has shared the inspiring testimony of how she and her husband, the General Overseer of the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries (MFM), Dr. Daniel Kolawole Olukoya, waited for more than 14 years before God blessed them with their son, despite years of public scrutiny and personal trials.
In a personal account, Mrs. Olukoya recalled that like every newly married couple, they expected to welcome their first child within the usual period after marriage. However, their expectation turned into a prolonged season of waiting.
She likened their experience to that of the biblical Abraham and Sarah, saying God repeatedly assured them that their “Isaac” would come, and they remained steadfast in faith despite the delay.
She disclosed that during those years, many families who worshipped under their ministry testified to miraculous conceptions and childbirths through God’s intervention, while they continued to wait for their own miracle.
According to her, the situation became even more challenging as rumours and false stories circulated, including from people they trusted. Nevertheless, she said they refused to lose confidence in God’s promises.
Mrs. Olukoya said the long wait tested their faith, but they held firmly to the conviction that God never fails in His word. “Five years passed, then ten years and beyond. It appeared as if it would never happen, but we knew that God is not a man that He should lie. Whatever He promises, He brings to pass,” she stated.
She revealed that after more than 14 years of waiting, God fulfilled His promise with the birth of their son. Recounting the memorable moment, she said that after Dr. Olukoya checked on both mother and child and confirmed they were in good health, the song “Oke’ Nla” was divinely inspired in his spirit in celebration of God’s faithfulness.
Mrs. Olukoya concluded her testimony with prayers for couples and individuals still trusting God for breakthroughs, declaring that their season of joy, fulfilment and manifestation would begin without delay.
“Rejoice, God has done it,” she affirmed, encouraging believers to remain unwavering in faith regardless of how long the wait may be.
