MICHAEL OROKPO IS A MYSTIC GURU

By Akin Ojumu

Adherents of the Pentecostal Movement like to throw a fit whenever they are told that their so-called God’s Generals are conmen, Gospel hucksters, false teachers, and metaphysical occult mystics. Even when confronted with irrefutable proof that their heroes are agents of Satan who have corrupted Biblical Christian and replaced it with New Age/New Thought mysticism, they get enraged, exploding into unrighteous indignation.

Well, once again, I’m here to present to you another proof that your so-called God’s Generals never belong to God. To the extent that they are anyone’s generals, they are of the devil’s military.

This commentary is about Michael Orokpo. It is a review of a video where the self-appointed apostle can be seen bragging about how he could use his mind to conjure up things. The guy believes his mind is a channel of power.

Performing in front of an excited audience, Michael Orokpo demonstrates the power of his mind. Just so his enchanted crowd grasp the extent of his power, he lets them know that he didn’t have to invoke the name of Jesus to make miracles happen. The only reason he bothers to say, “In the Name of Jesus,” at all, is so that the audience won’t think he is a witch doctor. Saying, “In Jesus’s Name,” is a mere inconvenient formality he does for the benefit of the crowd.

If you think I’m exaggerating, hear him gush out his hubris:

“Do you know why we come for service and we say, “In the name of Jesus?” It’s to help you understand. Because if we start doing some things you will say we are witch doctors. So, in order not to create argument, we do what you know. So, we lay hands on people, we say, “In the name of Jesus, take.” We don't need to do that.”

Orokpo is just warming up.

The guy is so powerful and in total command of his mind that anything he wants to happen happens. And because of this power of the mind that powerful people like him are able to manifest, some other powerful mystics like himself often get carried away and get rascally. By a simple wave of their hands, you see a crowd of people tumble and fall.

Let me allow him to say it:

“Anything we do is supposed to work. That’s why some people become a bit rascal. They do like this, people fall. Because when you are…you are…on fire…when there is intensity, anything you do will work…anything.”

From Orokpo’s mind comes a mighty outflow of power. All he has to do is to think it, and things begin to happen. With his mind, Orokpo can turn a dwarf into a 7-foot-tall basketball player. Even a morbidly obese woman, barely able to get up from her seat, can be transformed into an Olympic sprinter. Are you bald? No problem. Orokpo can use his mind to turn your bald head into an afro wig.

If you think I’m kidding, hear Orokpo tell you himself what he is capable of doing with his mind.

“If you think it, it will start happening. As I’m looking at you now, if I start thinking that pain should leave people, pain will start leaving people. As I’m looking at you now, if I start thinking that growth…growth should melt…”

In all these years that I have been watching the shows put on by the magicians of the Pentecostal Movement, one burning question in my mind has always been, how is it that the cameramen, guitarists, drummers, and singers don’t seem to be affected by the strong power oozing out of the man doing his thing on the stage?

Whereas you can see the audience melt down in complete frenzy, with people shrieking as though in excruciating pain and you watch them fall all over themselves as the powerful man of god moves his hand or waves his jacket, yet the musicians, photographers, and ushers always seem untouched by the pandemonium. I’ve always wondered why they seem immune to the powerful flow of anointing coming from the spellbinder.

All thanks to Michael Orokpo. I now know the secret behind the mystery. It’s all about the mind shield. Apparently, Orokpo is able, with his mind, to shield those on stage from getting affected by his tremendous outpouring of his great power. Michael Orokpo, by virtue of his mind, can make some people conductors, some semiconductors, and some insulators of power. 

Hear the powerful man in his own words:

“Why do you think…I was teaching you the other time, I told you, “Why do you think camera men don’t fall?” It’s because we…we shield them off with our mind. They are working with us. We are not transferring to them. That’s how it works.”

You may not have realized it, but all this display of mind control and mind power that makes growths to melt and causes pain to disappear is what Christianity is all about. In Michael Orokpo’s word:

“That’s the Christian life.”

Sadly, but not surprisingly, the vast majority of Pentecostals agree with Orokpo. This New Age/New Thought Mysticism is what’s considered Christianity today in Pentecostal cycles. In the eyes of many church folks, it is people like magician Michael Orokpo who are making positive impacts and doing great exploits for God’s kingdom.

Let me be as clear as I can be. What Michael Orokpo is promoting in this video is pure witchcraft and sorcery. It is what Sadhguru, an India Isha Yoga Mystic, also teaches his followers. Compare the Orokpo and Sadhguru side by side, they teach exactly the same thing.

Now, before you come up with the banal excuse that this sort of teaching is unique to Michael Orokpo, you need to cut it out right there. The confused young man did not invent the magic and sorcery he is teaching in this video. These practices he is pushing he got them from reading the books and listening to the messages of the forerunners of the Pentecostal Movement. There’s hardly any preacher in the Pentecostal circuit today who doesn’t teach some version of the same nonsense. This pure evil is what Azusa Street unleashed on the Christian world to pollute Biblical Christianity.

Like the rest of them, Michael Orokpo is a deceived deceiver who is a spiritual offspring and consumer of the errors and heresies passed down from people like Maria Woodworth-Etter, Kathryn Kuhlman, John G. Lake, Smith Wigglesworth, E.W Kenyon, Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth Copeland, T.L. Osborn, Gordon Lindsay, Benson Idahosa, and the rest of the so-called God’s Generals.

If you are one of those lost souls who believe in the satanic deception spewed by Michael Orokpo in this video, you are more lost than you’ll ever know.
