Apostle Johnson Suleman
- Name: Apostle Johnson Suleman
- Birthdate: 24 March 1971
- Birthplace: Edo state
- Occupation: Pastor
Apostle Johnson Suleman, founder and president of Omega Fire Ministries (OFM), is widely regarded by his followers as one of the few chosen prophets of God in this generation. Born on 24 March 1971, Apostle Suleman's church is based in Auchi, Edo state, Nigeria.
According to a divine revelation he received in 1994, Suleman saw a vision of the globe accompanied by the scripture Acts 10:38, which he interpreted as a call to minister not only to Nigeria or Africa, but to the entire world.
That vision, his followers say, marked the beginning of a lifelong global assignment — to restore destinies, deliver the oppressed, and demonstrate the reality of the Holy Spirit through the word, power, and miracles.
Humble beginnings, global Reach
Though Suleman’s early ministry days were modest, his followers believe the divine mandate has continued to manifest on a global scale. Today, Omega Fire Ministries has reportedly established its presence across multiple continents, including America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
Suleman's calling is often described in terms of biblical prophets. Referencing Amos 7:14 and Jeremiah 1:5, his supporters emphasise that neither of his parents was a prophet, yet they believe he was known and ordained by God even before birth. His birth is described as having occurred under "unprecedented circumstances," reinforcing this belief in a divine purpose.
The Black Elijah
Apostle Suleman's life story, from what followers describe as a prophetic calling in the womb to his present-day ministry, is documented in the film Black Elijah. The documentary aims to portray his journey and spiritual evolution, underlining his reputation among believers as a modern-day prophet akin to biblical figures.
Apostle Suleman is known for what followers call "prophetic accuracy and precision," as well as miracles and scriptural insight. He also serves as CEO of Celebration TV, a Christian satellite channel reportedly broadcasting to over two billion viewers in more than 100 countries daily. The channel is considered a key platform for his global evangelical mission.
Family and values
Apostle Suleman is married to Dr. Lizzy Johnson Suleman, and the couple has children described as God-fearing.
