Former Nigerian President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo disclosed during his sermon at the Love of Christ Generation Christ Church tagged 'Where are you ?'' the
most current Nigerian legislators committing crimes in Nigeria are those who had lived criminal lives abroad before coming home to join politics. God asked Adam a simple question which was difficult for him to answer, because he has committed a great sin, he failed to follow the instruction and warning given to him by his creator. How can you hide from the creator who created you ? Even Adam knew he did wrong, and found it very difficult to answer God and this caused his relationship with God to break. Obasanjo quoted Bible passages from Ephesians 6, 1-3 and Proverb 13: 1. Adam and his wife Eva offended their creator, this was the reason it was very difficult for Adam to answer his Lord when God asked Adam 'Where are you? '.It was all about relationship, Adam saw himself naked shameful. Relationship with yourself, relationship with God, relationship with your neighbour, relationship with nature are very essential. He enjoined the audience to work on the responsibilities of parents to their children and viceversa, If you denied God ,God will deny you, Obasanjo advised.
Esther Ajayi have a good relationship with her Lord, that is why we are here, children, keep a good relationship with your parents, good wife must keep good relationship with her husband good husband must do the same.

One of the guests told me that ''Reverend Esther is good but very arrogant''. ''She don't even come and see us where she put us at Aloft Hotel till we left'' . I told the person that she may be very busy with other commitments of the church. A lady who refused to disclose her name told me that ''Prophetess is a wonderful woman , I wondered how she was able to achieve so much wealth within short time, she founded her church. She brought about 120 prominent people from Nigeria and paid off all their air return tickets
including hotel bills in UK. She faced many challenges with unshakeable faith. May God bless her''. Christian women dominate her church, not less than Eight hundred members. She started her church in her home with her husband Ademuyiwa Ajayi 2007 who is ill in Nigeria. (May God grant him quick recovery). Prayer is the secret of the mother of four according to what she said: “I used to be a very successful businesswoman, running my own furniture manufacturing company. The Lord clearly showed me that I had to leave the business ; I would need to make prayer my focus, and I would never need anything ever again. I’d like to say that I was immediately obedient, but the truth is, I tried several ventures but nothing worked. It wasn’t until I completely gave myself over to God’s work that everything changed. Prayer is my thing.” Prophetess Esther thanked her God at the auditorium and guests were treated to good meals and lots to drink and took gifts home. The event received highly respected and anointed men of God. They were all given a befitting welcome from Heathrow airport by a large delegation of Love of Christ Generation Church, London.
