Prophet Shepherd Bushiri: ‘I am where I prophesied I would be’

BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)—As Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic continues ravaging the world; many people have turned to God with some sarcastically asking the whereabouts of some renowned prophets who have been performing miracles during their services.

Social media has recently been awash with negative comments directed to prophets especially those in Africa for hiding amid the outbreak of the Coronavirus, leaving the battle against the deadly virus to scientists.

“Now that Coronavirus is reigning havoc, even churches have closed down to let science do its job. They will come in with testimonies after all is over,” wrote Wonderful Mkhutche on his facebook page.

But reacting to the comments, Malawian born but South Africa based Prophet Shepherd Bushiri, has said what is happening now is a fulfillment of his prophecy he proclaimed back in 2018.

“Where are those Prophets now? Were they not healing the sick, so where are they?” This is a very common question now. Well, as for me, I am where I said I would be back in 2018 when I prophesied that, a time would come and I would disappear,” wrote Bushiri.

He added: “Not only me, I specifically mentioned that all prophets would disappear for a while. People would look for us in hunger for God.

“To all my followers, I told you this beforehand, and advised you to buy Bibles way before the lockdown. I hope you listened. Enjoy reading them and studying to show yourself approved unto God until all is over. And to those on social media busy asking where prophets are now, we are where I prophesied we would be, home!”

Prophet Bushiri is known in Africa and the whole world for his miracles.

Bushiri has come a long way from his upbringing in Mzuzu, a city in northern Malawi.

Nowadays, he can fill sports stadia with tens of thousands of his devoted followers – followers who are prepared to travel across the world to see him preach in person.

He has regular visitors from the US, the UK and even Asia.
