Bishop David Oyedepo's message, "Faith To Change The World," emphasizes that believers are empowered to become agents of global change through a robust, active, and unwavering faith.
Key principles of the message include:
Changed people change the world: Only individuals who have been transformed by God's power can become agents of change in their world.
Faith as the master key: Oyedepo teaches that faith is the master key to a world of unlimited possibilities. It is the spiritual force that activates God's power in a person's life and brings divine results into the physical realm.
Violent faith: A central aspect of this message is the concept of "violent faith"—a resolute, unyielding, and assertive faith that takes spiritual action and refuses to give up until the desired result is obtained. This posture confronts opposition and empowers believers to possess their divine inheritance.
Faith is an act: True faith is not passive or theoretical; it is proven by corresponding actions. Oyedepo's ministry emphasizes that faith is in the "doing" and that a "faith without works is fake".
Empowerment through the Holy Spirit and the Word: Violent faith is empowered by the Holy Spirit and nourished by the Word of God. A believer's spiritual capacity to receive from God is the gateway to becoming a change agent.
Testimonies as catalysts for faith: Oyedepo highlights the importance of testimonies—recounting past victories to stir up faith for present and future battles. He says that every testimony is a pointer to one's destiny.
