Apostle Oropko Michael, President of the Encounter Jesus Ministries International has exposed his colleagues who negotiate honorarium before attending as a guest preacher.

Speaking during a sermon, Pastor Michael revealed that some preachers negotiate the terms of their visit. According to him, while some pastors charge for their attendance, others call for seed during the service with the guest pastor taking 60 percent and the host taking 40 percent.

The cleric went further to reveal how the host pastor connived with the guest pastor by targeting some rich people in the church.

He said;

“When we are talking about this money thing with music ministers, it is not only those who sing, even those who preach. There are many prophets and apostles today, if you want to invite them you will negotiate the terms. You know how they do it, It is either they will charge you what you will pay them, or when they come, they make sure they move in power seriously and then they will call for seed and the formula will be stated. The man who called for the seed will take 60 percent and the host will take 40 percent. So, the apostle is coming to raise money. In fact, the host will tell the apostle that the woman with the blue suit works with an oil company, the brother that is wearing brown shoes that has a clean cut, he has a telecommunication. Apostle will now come with fire and use the altar to massage his ego.

Apostle will go ahead and say “I don’t do this but I feel God wants to shift people, I want somebody to come out and drop some seed, the brother will be the first to run out. You know why, he senses a connection with the apostle. But it's the apostle and host that worked the mathematics.

He will return to the woman and say “ah you, you, can I pray for you. There is a grace in you. I know you’ve seen some things but hear me, in the next three months,” oga that woman is already a millionaire, it's not your prophecy that made her. But there’s an arrangement and when the apostle knows he has gotten the audience where he wants, the apostle will take seed. The seed already has a sharing formula. And sometimes, do you know why ministers fight? Because the host will keep quiet. It is his account the money is going to. When they collect the money, the host will come and say “man of God, there are some debts we need to take care of”.

This revelation caused a stir on social media with many expressing shock at the actions of some pastors.

Below are some reactions;
