His rich spiritual experience began so early while he was in secondary school. He was used by God along side with few others to bring about a great revival at his school’s Christian students fellowship that helped nurture many great people of God serving in several places today. He was nurtured and exposed to ministry works through the ministries of First Baptist church Oyo, the End Time Army Ministries (then a non denominational Christian ministry of gifted youth) the GLODET mission.
He was actively involved in the revival that swept his home church (FBC Oyo) in the 80s and 90s through the bible study group of the church (the group that produced the current President of the Nigerian Baptist Convention; Revd Dr. Supo Ayokunle). His deep spiritual experience began in December 1987 when he had personal encounter with Christ and totally surrendered his life to him. He began itinerary teaching and evangelistic ministries in 1989.
Following specific divine direction, he founded the Aggressive Christian Corps Ministries (now Global Deliverance Team GLODET), a non denominational ministry dedicated to spiritual warfare and missions. Through this mission he was in Kaduna between 1996 and 1997 training people for spiritual warfare. Around this time he helped trained members of the Nigeria Military Christian Fellowship of the Kalanpazin Artillery Barracks Kakuri. He proceeded to Ghana on this same mission 2nd of December 1997 where he trained very many people from various denominations on the subject of spiritual warfare.
