Ossai Ovie Success, who previously served as an assistant to Delta State’s former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, has commented on Rema’s recent donation of N105 million to Christ Embassy in Benin, Edo State.
Rema, the well-known musician currently in his hometown, made this substantial donation during a church service. He shared that the church had provided significant support to his family following his father’s death, including helping his mother start a shop to sustain them.
While Ossai Success acknowledged and praised Rema’s generosity, he expressed disappointment that the singer has not yet fully dedicated his life to God. He emphasized that financial contributions to the church may lack true spiritual significance if not accompanied by a genuine commitment to God. According to Ossai, God desires a personal relationship with individuals, not just their monetary offerings.
Ossai urged Rema to fully commit his life to God and use his talents and resources in service of Him and to assist others. He asserted that the most valuable gift one can offer to God is a life devoted to serving Him. Ossai expressed hope that Rema’s donation would be a catalyst for deeper spiritual engagement and that his talents would contribute to advancing God’s kingdom.
Ossai Success commented:
“It’s disheartening that Rema donated N105 million to Christ Embassy without first dedicating his life to God. Donating money to the church without being born again may not hold true spiritual value, as God seeks our hearts and souls rather than just our wealth.
While Rema’s donation is commendable, it would be spiritually ineffective if he has not surrendered his life to God. It is important to recognize that the talents and resources bestowed upon us are meant to glorify God and help spread His message.
Given the ongoing battle for souls, it is crucial to leverage every opportunity and gift to lead others to God. The most precious offering we can give is a life devoted to His service.
May Rema’s donation signify the beginning of a deeper spiritual commitment, and may his talents be used to further God’s kingdom.
