Bushiri’s election prophecies dominates social media, stirs controversy 

Prophet Shepherd Bushiri’s prophecies on elections in Malawi continue to go viral on social media, at the same time, stirring controversy in the general public.

The Enlighten Christian Gathering (ECG) church leader made several prophecies on the elections even before tripartite election May 20 2019.

His first prophecy before the May 20 2019 was that he was seeing the ruling party winning the elections, but the opposition will not accept and there will be a wave of demonstrations.

He, again, a week before the Constitution Court ruling on Monday 3 February, said that he is seeing an appeal.

A day before the ruling, he prophesized that he is seeing the opposition winning the case.

These series of prophecies have seen social media going berserk with them—to the point of attracting controversies.

There is a group that are seeing nothing wrong with the prophecies; but just a manifestation of God’s wish. The other group is arguing that Bushiri is just being clever about it, mostly using his analytic skills which can’t be prophecy.

Bushiri himself said on Sunday that God showed him so many things regarding the future of Malawi but he didn’t want to divulge all of them because of the tense political situation in Malawi.

In defense of Bushiri, writing on his social media, Madengessa Machette said: “That what we call maturity, a prophet should be able to control the spirit and even himself. Check the atmosphere and also what will be the consequences. Not every prophecy need to be revealed in or on time.”

“I prophesy that the sun will rise from the east and set to the west tomorrow ” Does that make me a prophet? This guy just predicted the obvious. If and when he gets it wrong, no one even talks about it and if and when he gets it right, we all go crazy! Even if gets it partly right, we all ignore the wrong bits and focus on the bits that he got right. Don’t forget he prophesied that that the ruling would be last week( not this week), is anyone talking about that? No. However, if some people… Read more »

Remember the 2014 election? He prophesied that there would be a re-run after Joyce Banda lost( that’s because some commentators we’re saying so and JB herself said so) He got it completely wrong and that was the end of the story. No one ever talked about the prophesy again

How to know a true prophet of God?> It’s when what he prophesies comes to pass. Looking at the prophecies Bushiri made before or after election up to now after court ruling comes to pass as he promised. He is a true prophet of God being used by God.

A prophecy its of no use if you cant share and warn the people way before it happens. If we read our Bibles prophets would warn kings and tell them what was going to happen. We never hear a prophet claiming that I saw it happen but was not ready to share with the kings because the situation was not right.

Acts 16 vs 16–19 ” Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed WITH A SPIRIT OF DIVINATION met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune telling. The girl followed Paul and us and cried out, saying, “These men are servants of the MOST HIGH GOD, who proclaim to us the way of salvation. And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed turned and said to the spirit, ” I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” And he (the spirit) came out… Read more »

Noted! Not every spirit is of God. Iam certain that analytical skills have aided greatly to the so called prophecy

Very true. He said “we have just won an election in Malawi”. Everyone knows that Bushiri is a DPP sympathiser and he meant DPP won the case. The so-called February 2 prophesy is a sham using clever technology. Why was it not released say on the 3rd just before the courts decision? Conman indeed.

He actually got the timing WRONG, he said the ruling would be last week(not this week). That’s coz we all expected it last week until it was announced that it would be Monday this week. But no one is talking about that.

Clement Chiwoko, everyone is God’s person including you and me. If you are a non-believer and you don’t believe there is God then, what do you believe in? If there is no God, whn is there for you? Who gave you life? Who provides the air you breathe? Who made heaven, earth and all that is in them? Who made you? Remember, these are times of the End of the Times and the Devil is at work to decieve many not to believe in God. The time is now for you to decide. God Loves You!

If only you knew! You would have asked the Man of God to give you a job in one of his establishments, not in Dubai, USA, SA , South Sudan but in Lilongwe. Those of us who pride in what Major 1 does know that he has invested a lot in Malawi. Of course , such knowledge is not available to snakes, like babatunde and all your devil cousins

It is only the poorest who write negative things about my Papa, Major 1! Just look at yourself babatunde! You seriously need deliverance From that poverty .
Those that are blessed like me have no time to write negative things an about men of God. That’s why we don’t comment about your pastors
