A viral video featuring Nigerian cleric Apostle Arome Osayi has sparked widespread reactions on social media after he recounted what he described as a series of dreams in which Satan allegedly approached him to seek his assistance.
In the sermon, the preacher said the experience occurred three times in one night and claimed the encounter later inspired him to study biblical accounts of negotiations involving Satan.
He used the message to warn Christians against greed, compromise and what he described as being “negotiated out of destiny.”
Arome Osayi recounts alleged dream
According to the cleric, the figure he identified as Satan appeared differently from common depictions.
“For the first time in my life, I saw Satan in my dream. And he came to me to plead with me that ‘I need your help’. Now, the Satan I saw did not have horns on him.”
He continued by describing the appearance of the figure.
“He was the most beautiful creature, I mean beautiful, not handsome, the most beautiful creature I’ve ever seen before. And trust me, I’ve seen all kinds of angels. The beauty I saw, he was radiating.”
Osayi also claimed the figure spoke calmly and confidently.
“He doesn’t stammer. He’s so fluid in his speech. If you are not 100% submitted to Jesus, he will follow you.”
Claims of negotiation and offers
The preacher further alleged that the figure told him about a project in England and requested his support.
“He said, I need your help. I said, my help? Then he told me the project that he was putting up in England. Now he needs my help to finish it. I said, but are you not aware I’m going to destroy that project? He said, that’s why I came. We don’t need to fight.”
Osayi said he woke up after the encounter but claimed the dream continued when he returned to sleep.
According to him, the figure later presented gold and thousands of cards resembling ATM cards.
“He had about 2,000 cards that looked like ATM cards. I said, these are access cards. They can lead me to nations, to kings. I will have influence throughout my lifetime. And this gold is enough money that is too much for me to spend in one lifetime.”
He added that another object resembling a crystal ball was also shown to him, although he said its purpose was not explained.
Message to Christians
The cleric said the experience occurred three times, leading him to search the Scriptures for examples of Satan negotiating with biblical figures.
“Then I studied the Bible to see every time that Satan negotiated with people. What was the object of the negotiation?”
Drawing a spiritual lesson from the experience, Osayi cautioned believers against compromising their faith for worldly gains.
“Have you been negotiated out of destiny? And what you are calling breakthrough are the spoils of compromise that you have drawn from this spirit. My sword will not fight on Satan’s side.”
