Shepherd Bushiri Daily-Teachings

Prophet Shepherd Bushiri was a young lad when God appeared to him in a dream.

He was ten years old at the time and did not know who this supernatural being was who stood before him.

In that dream, he found himself in a strange place where he met people, who were glowing.

He recounts, “I was taken to a room where I heard a voice saying, ‘I am the Lord who has called you. I am the only one who can deliver mankind. Go and tell the people to serve me’’.

When he woke up, Prophet Bushiri says, he began hearing a great voice telling him names of people, their problems, and instructions where to go and find them.

That was the starting of his prophetic ministry, which many have come to know and benefit from all over the world.

Born and bred in Malawi, Prophet Bushiri was brought up in a Christian home and is a son of Huxley and Christina Bushiri who hails from Zambia, in Ndeke, Kitwe to be exact.

His birth was mysterious and there were so many issues surrounding it such that after he was born, his mother called him Shepherd, acknowledging that the Lord is her Shepherd.

But growing up as a committed Christian boy was deemed outlandish by his peers at school.

In a matter of fact voice, Prophet Bushiri said, children of the 21st Century think praying and living a godly life is for old tired people.

His lifestyle which became a challenge to his class and school mates brought him ridicule.

But one day, God would prove all his critics wrong when a fellow pupil in the school fainted and was rushed to the hospital.

With Faith in his heart and an unction to obey God, young Bushiri left class for the hospital where he prayed for his school mate who he says was healed miraculously.

Upon hearing the healing report, the whole school was filled with awe and realised, their colleague was no ordinary boy.

“God touched their hearts and from that day, most of them gave their lives to Christ,” he said.

Despite not going to any School of Theology, Prophet Bushiri in 2010, launched Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) in Malawi Lilongwe, a fast growing church with branches all over the world.

“Our church services are characterised by unusual prophecies, healings, and all manner of miracles, he says attributing it to God’s Grace upon his life.

He also launched a Christian Television Station, Prophetic Channel which is on Free to Air and viewed by millions across the world.

Currently he has relocated to South Africa in Pretoria where he has launched another ECG church, which has grown to 35,000 members in a space of eight months.

During live broadcasts, shouts of ‘Major One’ as he is commonly called, break out in the audience as people cry out for the attention of the Man of God.

Sometimes, calls of ‘Major One, do something’ ring out as the desperate audience present their various needs to the Prophet.
