Pastor Jerry Eze Defends Miracles At UK Conference Amidst Criticism And Controversy
Pastor Jerry Uchechukwu Eze, the charismatic leader of the Streams of Joy International and the driving force behind the New Season Prophetic Prayers and Declaration (NSPPD) movement, recently faced a wave of criticism following his conference at Twickenham Stadium, UK. The event, which drew thousands of attendees, was marked by extraordinary moments, including the alleged miraculous healing of a young girl with cerebral palsy, who reportedly stood up and walked for the first time.
While the spectacle of the girl’s healing captivated many, it also sparked a flurry of skepticism, with critics questioning the authenticity of the miracles performed during the conference. Among the loudest voices was media personality Daddy Freeze, who openly mocked the miracles, suggesting they were nothing more than well-orchestrated performances. He even challenged Pastor Eze to demonstrate his purported divine power by resurrecting famous individuals, if indeed his abilities were real.
Adding to the controversy, social media user Ashem Salem Timothy shared images from the event, noting that the crowd was predominantly African. Timothy expressed concern that only black people seemed to be grappling with the kinds of issues Pastor Eze addressed in his prayers, such as poverty, illness, and spiritual battles. This observation sparked further discussion about the demographic makeup of the conference and the ongoing struggles faced by the African diaspora.

Despite the criticism, Pastor Jerry Eze remained resolute in his faith. In a recent sermon, he dismissed the detractors as individuals who do not understand the significance of God’s work. He referred to the negative comments as “meaningless talk” and affirmed that his focus would remain on his divine mission. Pastor Eze emphasized that no amount of skepticism would deter him from fulfilling the purpose he believes God has set for him.
In response to the doubts cast on the miracles witnessed at the UK conference, Pastor Eze expressed astonishment at the boldness of those who questioned the testimonies of healing. He pointed out that the families of those who experienced these life-changing events have spoken out, reaffirming the power of God’s intervention.
