BEVERLY HILLS, May 12, (THEWILL) – Ashley Philips, daughter of popular US gospel singer, CeCe Winans, has opened up on how the messages and prayers of The Elevation Church (TEC) online helped her during pregnancy.
Philips disclosed this when she appeared on popular talk show, Generations: A celebration of motherhood, alongside her mother and her grandmother, Delores Winans.
She disclosed that during pregnancy, she had searched for “declarations about childbirth” on Google and stumbled on the church’s website with its message of declaration for pregnant women.
According to Phillips, the statements of confession prayers that she discovered on the church’s website became an integral part of her pregnancy journey until the birth of her baby recently.
Philips, who got married in September 2017, said: “A good thing I did when I was pregnant was making positive declarations over myself. I was just praying, declaring things over myself, like, my emotions are in order, like I am going to have a great pregnancy, postmortem period …… that I have the peace of God, I am not anxious….”
“There is a church somewhere in Africa, I think they are out of Nigeria, called ‘The Elevation Church’… and their website has confessions about everything; family, health, finances… and I really like to read them and say them out loud almost every day because I believe in the power of the word of God.
“I have shared such confessions with friends and they have seen major differences in their first pregnancies compared to after I told them.”
THEWILL writes that TEC is a non-denominational church in Lagos, founded by Godman Akinlabi, and Bola, his wife who is also a minister.
