It is rare to see more than 1 child toeing the pastoral path of his parents but in Bishop Oyedepo’s case, he has 2 grown up boys who have followed his footsteps and are pastoring the Living Faith congregation where they are based abroad.Highly disciplined and gradually raising his immediate families along, the 1st born, son and scion of the family is Pastor David Oyedepo Junior who took after his father in everything.

All I can say is, this is indeed the Lord’s doing and it is marvellous in my eyes. As I like to say, your spouse is your advantage in life, not your adversary.Thank you sir, for proving that point to the fullest! As you keep pursuing your vision, I will be right here as your helper. And I look forward to sharing with you more of life and destiny”.In this assignment he passionately pursues the delivery of the Liberation Mandate in the life of everyone he comes in contact with.
His messages are centred on the Liberation Mandate as was reportedly revealed to the Presiding Bishop,his father, Dr David Oyedepo by God in an 18-hour open vision over three decades ago. An embodiment of humility, Pastor David teaches the core values of Christian living centred on the twelve pillars of the commission.Being a student of the school of Faith himself, he has worked with the help of the Holy Spirit in propagating the Church and spreading The Mandate in the UK and Europe in general. He attended Oral Roberts University and Oklahoma Christian University where he received his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees respectively.

Quite doing well in the running of the South African Church, he has gathered a large congregation with his faith-based doctrines.The family’s third born is pretty damsel, Love Oyedepo-Ogah who married her hearthrob over a year ago in a superlative wedding. She is also into the ministry in other capacities as she is often seen on mission trips with her mother.
