Komaiya: Doctors Said I Wouldn’t Live Beyond 35, But God Kept Me

The Senior Pastor and founder of The Master’s Place International Church, Pastor Korede Komaiya, has revealed that medical professionals once told him he would not live past the age of 35.

The 54-year-old cleric disclosed this in an Instagram post on Wednesday while sharing photos ahead of his 55th birthday celebration.

“My gratitude knows no bounds. I saw bends that looked 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.

Komaiya described his life as a testimony of divine mercy.

“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,” he said.

Reflecting on his ministry, the cleric noted how God has used him as a vessel to impact lives.

“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 added.

Pastor Komaiya founded The Master’s Place International Church in Warri, Delta State, in 2007, where he pastors alongside his wife, Esther.
