“Don't Be Deceived Speaking Tongues Can Be Learnt” — Didi-Omah Augustine Chinazaekpere

Today (Sunday, July 12, 2026) as usual in Benue State, I attended Divine Mandate for All Nations (DMAN) Kanshio Makurdi. The apostle who is called Apostle Abel by name. I don't beg for platform to share the Word. I have made up my heart, that I will never asked for a place to preach, and I will never asked for money unless it is a goodwill donations, and that without pressure or pull — because when we push the Word out, then the people and the money will come in — that's part of the rule of prosperity, true prosperity.

Executive, I am a businessman, and I will always abide in my field as given to me by HaShem. The message was on Time and Seasons, knowing your seasons and time: what time are you?

It was an impactful session with preaching. There is a difference between preaching and teaching — majority of the churches preach only few teaches the Word. Know that, I am privileged to be both preacher and teacher of the Word — if I am led to preach I do, when led to teach, I do likewise. To me, I love teaching than preaching as Jesus Christ is.

After some time, Apostle Abel started hitting hard on prayer. And this is the message from me, I may hear your words but I must test it in my heart with the knowledge of the truth, as the message was coming I was doing testing with the Bible. The Spirit of Truth said to me, “Didi-Omah Augustine Chinazaekpere, do not be dismay there are people that learn the speaking of tongues. You are in a church that believes more on prayer than teaching the Word.

Stand strong in the Word, and be yourself”. Executive, prayer is a part of Christian life because Christianity is a culture and a call to divinity. A culture is the people's way of life. I started scanning the Bible with my heart to know the truth about prayers. A church can exalt prayers more than the Word but it won't take the Word from it's position. The God I serve is a God of principles.

I don't compare myself with any body neither do I want to be like anybody — I want to be like Jesus Christ. Abraham talk to God, David sings to God, Daniel prays to God. Who is the man after God's heart? David. Who did God called His friend? Abraham. Enoch never tested death because he walk with God in obedience and by faith. Because many prays in tongues does mean they are powerful. Apostle Paul said to us, we should pray with understanding and in spirit — right!

He further stressed that if he that speaks in tongues, speaks and another does not understand — he makes noises and does no good to the church. That means the tongues that ought to edify the church makes no effect. One should speak and another understand. Executive, I am not logic here, because logic is carnal, I am a Word-based Christian. The only authority over my life is the Bible.

I remembered when I told us that God used a mad man at Ekowe, during my polytechnic years to warned me not to forced myself speaking in unknown tongues that is not in the Holy Spirit, that the Holy Spirit will come upon me in alignment to my spirit. Now I can speak in tongues, Hallelujah! I don't pray in tongues because the house is full of those praying in tongues. I pray in tongues by the leading of the Holy Spirit.

When I started speaking in tongues was in 2025 after my redemption in January 2025; in my father's house. It was in the morning hours, when I was speaking in tongues, Executive, I was sweating and the every tongues I proceed out of my mouth, I hear the voice in my heart, saying the meaning. Like 'Eli Eli' — My father, My father! So and many others. Praying in tongues is a unction of the Holy Spirit, but I tell you today, people are learning it. Even till date when I pray in tongues, the Spirit is praying in the meaning to God within me.

I told you, that a prayer abiding church is powerful enough in spiritual warfare but it is not powerful enough in general welfare. No prayer abiding church is greater than a Word abiding church. When you teach the Word, give people life applicable teachings through the Word — you tend to build a growing progressive church in your field. Every growing church began with a groaning knee, and that's is done by prayers and fasting; but to sustain and keep increasing the growth of the church, is through the Word and faith — that's how the early church grew and multiply. Even the Bible told us to follow those who through patience and faith obtained the promises.

You can be speaking in tongues, and still fall. Yes, if all you do is speaking in tongues — if the only thing you do is prayers! Sorry to tell you, you are doomed. The devil is not afraid of you speaking in tongues, you can speak in tongues and the demons will come after you. Demons are for those that prays and hear the Word. The devil comes after those that does. Job was attacked because he was a doer of the Word — not by demon but by devil (himself). If all you do is prayers, sorry you are finished.

Remember, Jesus Christ fasted for forty days and forty nights. Who came? The devil. Hahahaha! You see, the devil came. You need the Word to overcome the devil not prayers. "It is written" not "I have prayed". Speaking in tongues does not qualify you for authority, it is part of the prosperity from the Holy Spirit. So you become a man of authority by the depth of the Word in you. So when you don't know enough of the Truth, you fall, you fail.

You don't fail because you know nothing about the Word, you fail because you don't know enough of the Word. Executive, you have Word problem, not prayers problem, not faith problems. Faith comes by hearing and hearing of the Word of God. When the Spirit of Truth shall come on you, He will guide and teach you in all truth, and tell you things to come. When there is a burden you prays hard, but when there is a burden I tell you, praise God hard, pray in spirit and in truth, and use His Word as your sword. 

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Executive, it is working. You are a king on earth, you must command and that is from the knowledge of the truth. I speaks in tongues and I have not love, I become a sounding bass (1 Corinthians 13 vs. 1). My mandate is REDEEMING LOVE! My theme till I die is REDEEMING LOVE! The organisation DIDI-OMAH's theme and official motto is REDEEMING LOVE! What a powerful power.

Jesus Christ told us that the end of the commandments is love; the greatest among faith, hope and love — is love, the greatest above prayers is the praises. Until we start using the right key, genuinely and not man learned speaking in tongues, we will start flowing. And the local churches will increase with it's members becoming righteous and light of the world. Even my before NYSC service, God said to me, “Didi-Omah, I have made you the light of the world, and you will be the light of the world by spreading true knowledge and love.”

The same mad man told me in Ekowe, that I am the light of the world, Min. Golden Udobi, was present, he can testify of my words. Until we go out there to light up the world with the knowledge of the truth and love. We will be here and be speaking in tongues and clapping and jumping in the church. Executive, Jesus Christ said, you are the light of the world, not the church. You are the salt of the earth, not of a church group. Get up! Take heed like a stallion, fly high above like an eagle, and dominate like water.

Since my HND when God told me this words, I kept it and keep saying it. And Executive, I will repeat it for your memory: Take heed like a stallion, fly high above like an eagle, and dominate like water. I am not a prayer type like most of you, my mother, Mrs. Didi-Omah Charity Chikodi, is a great prayer warrior; Executive, when she prays even the night delays the day from breaking. When she prays, even you will be strengthening to pray as you are. The Holy Spirit said to me, before bringing me to Benue State, don't go there and change your system.

When we praises, God stand and step in Himself. When we prays even in tongues, He sent His angels. Because that's not His own food. He is not a selfish God. When you prays and hear the Word, the demons comes. But when you keep the commandments of God in obedience and by faith, the devil comes himself. Because you are doing God's Word, not just praying. Many of you are attack by demons and calling the devil, watch what is attacking you well before pressing.

Executive, the message that will transform your life will come to you directly. I am a businessman, a non-denominational Christian, a man that prays and abide richly in the Word. I can pray for an hour by the help of the Holy Spirit, but when it comes to praises — Executive, I can praise and even more than eight hours, and that have caused me to hear from God. Many speaks in tongues before hearing from God, I only spend time on the Word, and praise always. I pray four times a day, I speak in tongues by the unctions of the Holy Spirit. But by own, it is just praises more than prayers.

But that miracles will happen, the secret will be exposed. It has happened and that is what is giving me confidence to tell you this today. Be charged with the Word, and commune with God through prayers, and push God through praises. When you praise God, God step into the place — from Bible I got this knowledge, and I practiced it, and it works perfectly. Tested, proven and trusted!

Praises is more powerful than prayers, but we are in the era when many exalt prayers above praises. The Word remains the foundation not prayer, no amount of prayers that can empower you above the Word. Even Jesus Christ said it, so there are needs for prayers and fasting but that is not a substitute to Praises and deep depth of knowledge of the Truth. When you praise God, He step in himself, the 24 elders are always praising God. God loves praises.

Praises feeds Him, prayers is fellowship with God. Let's brings it to human standard. Augustine always pay Eruchi with her favourite. Chinaza always come to meet with Eruchi to talk and demand. Between Augustine and Chinaza — who will Eruchi attend first if both comes the same time and day. You don't need a prophet to tell you the answer, it is Augustine. David the man after God's heart not through prayers but through praises and the Word. Your Word have I hidden in my heart, and the Bible recorded that David praises God more often the prophet Nathan. God chooses David after His heart but speaks to prophet Nathan — yet prophet Nathan was not the man after God's heart.

What a puzzle? Life is not a guess adventure, its a adventure of reality. I am privileged to write HOW TO GROW A CHURCH, HOW TO WIN SOULS EFFORTLESSLY, HOW TO START A COMPANY — yes, but I am a businessman. It is gotten by depth insight of the Word and my business field. Prayer is commune with God, and not a total replacement of praises.

A church that praises God more and share the Word: Life applicable teachings through the Word; and commune with God in the spirit and with understanding. Watch that church, they will grow to that housing millions of members, not anyhow members, truly amazing genuine people for God. My Social Christian Charitable Organisation, DIDI-OMAH, have never begged the public to join them neither for public donations.

You can see for yourself, The organisation DIDI-OMAH, is fast growing. The goodness now is, we are going to engage publicly from 2027 and watch before 2030, it will be in 12 countries by faith. It is not cho cho cho. I have thoroughly studied and educated on my field. Executive, we have to wake up or else we will have a struggling church and the devil will be winning. We must build on the Word, live by the Spirit, joined together by Faith and sealed up by Prayers. These we will win.

Take to heart, and don't be deceived. Now speaking in tongues can be learnt. Not everyone speaking in tongues is in the right place with God. For the gift of the Spirit dwells in righteous vessels. Executive. The power of winning is knowing the Word, understanding the Word and living by the Word. When you have the understanding of the Bible, you are empowered to keep the fire burning and control the supernatural.
