The newly installed king of Zion, Oluwagbade (V) of the Episcopal Church of Cherubim and Seraphim, Zion-Pepe and worldwide, Most Reverend Apostle, Prophet Judah Adeogo Oluwole JP, came to the world as a special gift from God in about five decades ago.
He was born at Igboalejo, Snake Island, Lagos State Nigeria to the family of Mr and Mrs Oluwole. At a very tender age, Prophet Judah attended C & S Primary School Igboalejo, Snake Island Lagos State in 1980 from where he proceeded to Adeolu Secondary School, Olodi Apapa, Lagos.
He was graduated from Adeolu Secondary School in 1985. The pursuit of knowledge and core values of life further took the veteran teacher of the word to the Federal College of Fishery and Marine Technology (OCEANOGRAPHY), Victoria Island, Lagos.
In order to have a deeper root in the word of God and gain more influence in his prophetic ministry, Prophet Judah would later attend the Cornerstone University, Ojo, Lagos State where he bagged a bachelor degree in theology.
Apart from being raised from a Christian background, the man of God gave his life to Christ at a very tender age, and he became more active, even as a young boy, in the service of God.
This facilitated his baptismal of fire, and eventually, he received the Holy Spirit on an auspicious occasion while worshipping at the Holy Salem Church Ijora, Lagos in 1978. Prior to his encounter with the Holy Spirit, he had always been a regular and committed worshipper in the Glory Band of the Prophetic Church of Nigeria, PCN.
At a stage, spiritual growth and maturity became a burning demand from the Holy Ghost upon his life.
He was, therefore, yielded under the tutelage of the popular man of God, who by divine arrangement was also his elder brother, the late prophet Dagunro Ajaye Oluwole in Àgógbooro, Delta State. He would remain under the guidance of Baba Dagunro until he became a full blown prophet.
In adherence to the divine instruction, he was mandated to resign from his work in 1991.Kabiyesi was also employed by the Lagos State Civil Service Commission to work with the Lagos State Sport Council as a swimming pool instructor, a position from which he later resigned in 1991 due to the pressing demand for full commitment by the Holy Spirit.
It is often said that when desirousness meets with agility, the result is always beyond a bypredictable mile.
Upon being called by the Holy Spirit, the man of God took a deeper step in faith by attending the Episcopal School of Theology, Zion-Pepe where he was ordained as a rabbi by the then King of Zion, St J.I Ogunderu during the 1990/1991 set. Upon returning to his abode in Lagos, he acquiesced to the movement of the Holy Spirit in bringing the fellowship closer to the people, thus, establishing a new branch at Igboalejo (ECC&S, Okun-Ramah branch).
He would be the minister in charge of the branch till the day of his installation as the new King of Zion.
Rapidly growing under the tutelage of the great teacher, the Holy Spirit, his vastness in the word of God soon became too obvious to be ignored.
Hence, he was appointed as a teacher in the Episcopal School of Theology, Zion-Pepe by the late king of Zion Pepe J.I Ogunderu. This actually marked the beginning of his journey as a full time polymathic rabbi. He was promoted to the rank of senior tutor in the subsequent years. Being a theology teacher, he has always strived to instill discipline and diligence, as some of the dimensions of the Spirit, in the heart of every theology students in the Episcopal mission. Due to his commitment to the work of the mission and his humility, he was later promoted to be the Vice Principal of the Episcopal School of Theology in 2011 by King Dr I.O Okunnuwa, the immediate past King of Zion. “Esa (Sir) Juda” as fondly called by his students is a dreadful and redoubtable figure who will stop at nothing in ensuring spiritual discipline and decency.
His disciplinary nature is known across the mission. When the Episcopal mission needed men who would stand upon their watch and watch for the kingdom in 2008, the then King of Zion, Baba Okunnuwa, appointed 12 spiritually sound prophets to stand in the gap for the mission at all times.
Prophet Oluwole was one of the first few names that top the list. Kabiyesi remains a formidable member of “THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH”, as the band would be called, till date. While maintaining a proximal relationship with the headquarters of the mission in Zion-Pepe, Prophet Judah Oluwole is also an ardent preacher who, at every turn in his life, diligently obeys the Master’s voice in Matt. 28:19-20. In doing this, the desire to explore the depth of his calling took him on a Holy pilgrimage to Jerusalem in 2011.
Also, the word of God has often taken him to so many states across the country as well as some neighbouring African countries like Gabon, Cameroon etc.
The new King of Zion is a loyal servant of God. This loyalty reflects in his ministry and in his works with the mission. Amongst the host of ordained ministers across the mission, his humility and versatility is matchless.
As a result of his humility and the level of grace of God upon him, he was also appointed by the late King, King Dr I.O Okunnuwa, upon the recommendation of the General Conference and Board of Trustee of the ECC&S Zion-Pepe and worldwide, as the Vice Chairman of the General Episcopal Conference, a position he held until his ascension unto the throne.
Oba Oluwole is bountifully blessed with beautiful wives and God-fearing children. With one accord, all Zionists believe this is the direct choice of the Holy Spirit. We, therefore, pray WITH him that the mantle of the saints of God fall and never depart from him.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF US!!
