A cleric, Prophet Samuel Adebayo Ojo aka Baba Authority has sent a message to Nigerian youths.

According to him, miracles alone cannot help them.

He urged youths to focus on hard work and practical efforts rather than relying solely on miracles for success.

Prophet Ojo, while speaking during a sermon online in the ongoing 30 days of fasting and prayer, stressed the significance of diligence, creativity, and persistence in achieving personal growth and financial breakthroughs.

“Faith without works is dead. Nigerians must understand that miracles can only complement effort, not replace it,” he said.

The cleric outlined the challenges of unemployment, economic hardship, and dependency on spiritual intervention as barriers to self-reliance and productivity in the country, encouraging the youths to discover and utilize their talents.

“Use your hands to work, not just watch social media. No one will pay you for watching social media content. By watching these people, they are getting richer, while you are jumping from one content creator to another. You are not using your brain to work. May you never carry a coconut head this year. May you receive favor to work,” he advised.

According to him, many people are bitter because God has not answered them, questioning how God will answer them when they are not using their hands and brains to work.

The man of God also called on leaders to create an enabling environment where people can thrive through their efforts, advising young Nigerians to embrace skill acquisition and entrepreneurship as pathways to financial independence and fulfillment.

Prophet Sam Ojo is a prominent and fiery Nigerian spiritual leader known for his prophetic insights and practical teachings on faith and life. He often combines spiritual guidance with actionable advice for personal and societal development.
