Pastor Korede Komaiya, Senior Pastor and founder of the Master’s Place International Church in Warri, Delta State, has opened up about his life’s journey, revealing how doctors once predicted that he would not live beyond the age of 35 due to serious health challenges.
Now aged 54, Pastor Komaiya shared his testimony in an emotional Instagram post on Wednesday, as he posted photos ahead of his upcoming 55th birthday. He reflected on his remarkable survival, attributing every moment of his life to God’s mercy and grace.
“My gratitude knows no bounds. I saw bends that were like ends until God turned things around. I have escaped death over and over again. I was told medically that I wouldn’t live to be 35 years old, and now I’m just a few days away from 55,” he wrote, emphasizing how divine intervention rewrote the story of his life.
The cleric described his survival as nothing short of miraculous, calling himself a living proof of God’s divine mercy. He added that despite multiple battles, betrayals, and attacks from different angles, none of these could stop the purpose of God upon his life.
“I am a product of mercy. God always comes through for me, no matter the battle or my mistakes. No hatred, no betrayal, no siege of the wicked, and no assault of the evil ones has been able to stop my destiny,” Pastor Komaiya declared, underscoring the faith that continues to sustain him.
Reflecting on the impact of his ministry and calling, Pastor Komaiya explained how his life has become a source of light, comfort, and hope to many people across different walks of life.
“Today, God has made me a father to orphans, a succour to widows, an eye to the blind, hope to the hopeless, and light to those in darkness. Only God deserves all the glory. Help me thank God! Gratitude mode activated,” he wrote in thanksgiving.
Since founding the Master’s Place International Church in 2007, Pastor Komaiya has led the fast-growing ministry alongside his wife, touching thousands of lives across Nigeria and beyond. His story continues to inspire many who see him as a symbol of resilience, unwavering faith, and the transforming power of God’s grace.
