The General Overseer of the Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries, Pastor Lazarus Muoka, has responded to alleged criticism of his church by social media influencer Martins Otse, known widely as VeryDarkMan.
Addressing his congregation in a video, Pastor Muoka stated that he had been informed about VeryDarkMan’s comments, allegedly saying, “Chosen members will learn the hard way.”
In response, Pastor Muoka said, “Someone came to me and said, ‘Pastor, do you see this man who is speaking against us? He said Chosen people will learn something the hard way.’ And he mentioned the man’s name—VeryDarkMan. I said, ‘No, Chosen will not learn the hard way; he will be the one to learn the hard way.’”
Pastor Muoka clarified that he held no ill will toward the VeryDarkMan, saying, “I didn’t speak evil of him. I only made a statement. I don’t want to speak negatively, because if I say anything negative or evil, it will happen immediately.”
He further added, “I cannot speak evil against any man, but I am telling you that VeryDarkMan is learning something today in a hard way. I didn’t say it to punish him, I only echoed his words.”
Pastor Muoka concluded with a warning, saying, “If God’s anointed gets angry with you, you are finished.”
No further comments have been made by the VeryDarkman regarding the situation.
The church has been in the news recently due to some extraordinary testimonies shared by its members. In one video, an elderly woman claimed she was attacked by four armed robbers but miraculously managed to gain control of their guns. Another testimony featured a man who said he survived a kidnapping, machete attacks, and gunshots “without sustaining any injuries.”
