He admitted that the leading of the Spirit was strong and that he could not ignore it, despite his attempts to do so. Speaking on the act, he said it is a prophetic statement and that the lady is expected to start a little business with the offering.

Pastor Ezenwoko further stated that something greater was released beyond the offering, particularly courage, dignity and a fresh beginning.

He expressed confidence that whatever business the lady sets up with the offering will prosper, and he looks forward to her testimony.

His statement on Facebook read:

"While I was ministering, the Spirit of God led me to hand over the entire offering of the night, every seed into her hands.....

"It was strong, I tried to ignore it, because we had bills to pay and sort....

"But then, the prompting got stronger...

"I obeyed, handed over the entire offering and seeds to her, not as charity, but as a prophetic statement.
