A lady and General Overseer of Shammah Christian Ministry, Mrs. Elizabeth Paul Obelley was on Saturday November 24, 2012 consecrated Bishop and enthroned on Sunday November 25, 2012 at the Ministry’s headquarters, Alesa Eleme, in Eleme Local Government Area of Rivers State.
In his consecration message with the topic, “Two Voices From The Cross,” Archbishop Adonijah O. Ogbonnaya pointed out that one should not complain as God does not answer complaint, but answers voice of victory. He urges that the devil is after how man may condemn God with his tongue and asked that one should insist to be child of God so that he can strive before God.
Speaking to the press the consecrated bishop who appreciated the day as her favoured day, advised women to keep focus on whatever areas God places them.
Her lordship said because she was focus God choose her not that she advocated for priesthood pointed on how she entered a consecration service and the Archbishop who consecrated her cane, identified her from the crowed that his (God) service hence she could not reject.
In like manner, her husband wishes her the best in the service of God asking God to direct her in service to God and humanity asking those men whose God has called their wife to yield and allow their wives to answer the call and support her as bringing God into their family bringing every good thing in the family.
A former Eleme lawmaker in the Rivers State House of Assembly, Hon. Isaac Kamalu Esq. appreciated her Lordship asking her to know that God enthroned her so she should do well to show high level of commitment, humanity, she should serve God and humanity.
Concerning the insurgency in the country the ex-lawmaker asked the government to give priority to control the Boko Haram, and asked the youths not to allow themselves to be use by selfish element of the society to do havoc calling all to contribute in their area to build the youths for the youths he said, urges the youths to shun anti-social behaviours.
Respondents who spoke to this weekly said that sex is not the case in bishopicupal as the prophesy to Joel has said that in the late later day which is today the spirit will be pour on all flesh which include women and hail the consecrated bishop to go ahead doing the work as the Lord directs her. ###
