Popular Nigerian actor, Yul Edochie, has said that the time has come for him to fulfill his purpose as a minister of God.
Daily News 24 reports that the actor has been in the news since he unveiled Judy Austin as his second wife.
Yul Edochie disclosed this in a YouTube video, revealing that his calling to be a minister of God happened many years ago, but he felt it was not the right time, Daily Post reports.
Edochie added that the calling had become intense recently, and even more when he realised that God made him successful so he could use the fame to promote the gospel and touch lives.
“I have a calling to serve God and be his minister of God. I have a calling to be a preacher of God, to preach the word of God through action. I had this call a long time ago, actually, many years ago.
“But I always felt the time had not come or the timing wasn’t right. But now, it’s very strong. I feel the time has come. God has blessed me in this life, and by the grace of God, I have become one of the biggest and most celebrated actors in Nigeria and Africa.
“I have realised God lifted me as an actor so I can become one of his ministers and use that fame to preach the word of God. My purpose in life is to become a minister of God and touch lives,” he said.
Edochie said he would not quit acting as a pastor but would ensure his projects align with God’s word.
