But TB Joshua was right on the death of Malawi President Bingu wa Mutharika. This particular prophecy was "distorted" in the Internet, prompting his ministry to release the statement (see full text below).
This is an official message from Prophet T.B. Joshua and The SCOAN.
There are distorted rumors spreading on the
internet concerning T.B. Joshua's prophecy this past Sunday. Rumors are saying
that the man of God said that an East African country will soon be kidnapped by
terrorists, and that a night club would be blown up.
Do not listen to the father of lies. These
are not the words used by the prophet. Prophet T.B. Joshua specifically asked
journalists not to misquote his prophecy.
He said that he saw a leader being captured. The
prophet instructed the people of God to fast and pray on Wednesday and
Thursday. He said Wednesday and Thursday had nothing to do with what was going
to happen, but the people of God should fast and pray on those days. He also
told the congregation that he will stay in an attitude of prayer for the
country concerned, so that God might subdue this coming evil to a mere sign.
He said that the country concerned is not Kenya,
but a country close to it. He mentioned that it is the same country in which a
similar event took place while they were drinking and dancing.
He will continue to pray for them, but he will
not mention their names unless God instructs him to do so. This is because many
would begin to spread rumors and false allegations against himself, the leader,
and the country rather than pray for them. He said if prayer and security are
not in place, the blood of thousands will be wasted. Let us all stay in an
attitude of faith and prayer, in Jesus' name.
The wording of the prophecy prompted many to claim that the country in
question was Uganda. This is especially because of the 'drinking
and dancing' part, since a nightclub in Uganda was bombed a few years back.Prophesies are however known to have deep interpretations, and only the prophet knows exactly what he means. That takes us to recent events in South Sudan, where Salva Kiir's government has just survived a coup attempt. Fighting is however still ongoing.
Only time will tell whether TB Joshua was talking about South Sudan.
According to the most recent reports, attackers killed two Indian army peacekeepers in South Sudan and wounded a third one in the chest. At least two of the 30 civilians who took refuge at the United Nations' Akobo base were killed in the attack Thursday. It could have been as many as 20 who died in that attack.
Casualties are in the hundreds, including soldiers, the government said.
Deadly clashes have raged South Sudan for days after a reported coup attempt in the capital over the weekend. President Salva Kiir blamed soldiers loyal to his former vice president, Riek Machar, for starting the violence.
Tensions have been high in South Sudan since Kiir dismissed his entire Cabinet, including Machar, in July. The move inflamed deep tensions between Kiir's Dinka community and Machar's Nuer community. Eleven people have been arrested in connection with the foiled coup.
