Rev Chris Oyakhilome is one man who has seized the moment. His ministerial career trajectory is a study in undeniable success story. At every stage of his long and eventful ministry path, he has faced demons and human adversaries that would dare be his albatross with extraordinary boldness and came out the victor.

Pastor Chris is not one to sit and wait for politicians, business leaders, speculators or academicians to deliver to society their kind of future – a failed theory that has produced a failed generation.

This Man with the propensity to change lives is determined not to be a passive wayfarer in the events leading up to the future of the younger generation; he has chosen to be an active participator.

There is no denying the fact that this man of God is success personified And like every true success ,he is determined to to reproduce himself in others, as he stirs the youth across the world to aspire to his inspirations.

Thus the National Youth Conferences with Pastor Chris was born. Today however, after four editions of the conference, the focus has shifted to a global vision.

This past Friday, over twenty five thousand young people travelling from Europe, Asia, America and several nations in Africa converged in Lagos, Nigeria, for the delegates’ edition of the 1st International Youth Conference. The delegates’ session is expected to serve as a prelude to the main conference expected later and billed to have several thousands of youths around the world in attendance.

Speaking at the opening session meant to welcome the delegates, Pastor Chris charged the youth to position themselves to seize the moment. ‘Success is at different levels”, he told his audience, effectively saying to them, “hey, you don’t have to wait till you’re sixty or ninety to know if you are a success; be a success at whatever level of life you’re in right now”! With one phrase success is redefined.

While the wisdom of the age laments the pervasive world-wide atmosphere of gloom, Pastor Chris admonished his audience, “Do not let the darkness in the world drown your light!” Words crafted for kings; words that position one to confront the future with a bold face.

Little wonder, the youthful congregation could not keep their seats as the seconds ticked by! The words they heard this Friday night ignited in their spirits an unmitigated thirst for excellence and success. Pastor Chris mounted the dais at 21:00 hrs and stepped off at 21:30 GMT. Within this short interval, age-long beliefs were dispelled, myths busted, a new mindset engineered. A brighter generation beckons.
