Mission and Impact

Derek Prince Ministries Nigeria is translating and distributing Derek Prince’s Bible teaching primarily into Hausa, the vernacular language of over 50 million people in Nigeria alone. Translation is beginning in the Yoruba language too.

Our key activities in Nigeria include spreading the Gospel, discipleship training, and providing spiritual mentorship to local communities. Utilizing resources that range from free Bible teaching materials to personal guidance, we endeavor to deepen understanding, faith, and devotion among Nigerian Christians.

The impact of our ministry's work in Nigeria is seen in the strengthened Christian communities, increased biblical literacy, and the spiritual empowerment of individuals nurtured through our activities. As part of this outreach, Derek Prince’s Self-Study Bible Course became a cornerstone in a literacy program for women in rural northern Nigeria. This program trains 1,500 women annually, equipping them with both Bibles and the Self-Study Bible Course, thereby fostering literacy and spiritual growth among the participants.

        The Journey So Far

        From 2005 to 2008, Derek Prince Ministries in Nigeria initiated a tape ministry focused on translating and distributing Derek Prince’s audio recordings in Hausa. This included translating the Foundation series, scripting, voicing, recording, and ultimately distributing the tapes. The ministry partnered with Gospel Recordings to access the necessary equipment for these recordings, ensuring the materials reached a wide audience.

        Our outreach workers faced significant challenges and intense spiritual warfare. Additionally, Nigeria has experienced ongoing Christian persecution, with increasing violence from Islamist terror groups and militant factions. Despite these obstacles, we have successfully printed several key titles in Hausa language, such as "Self-Study Bible Course," "Shaping History Through Prayer and Fasting," "Divine Exchange," and "Life-Changing Spiritual Power." These books were distributed across the Niger Republic, northwest, and northeast Nigeria, significantly expanding their reach.

        The translated materials are being distributed to Bible schools, prayer ministry trainees, and pastors, impacting numerous communities. Thousands of Derek Prince Ministries Hausa tapes and SD cards were handed out, and the "Self-Study Bible Course" became a cornerstone in a literacy program for women in rural northern Nigeria. This program trains 1,500 women annually, equipping them with both Bibles and the "Self-Study Bible Course," thereby fostering literacy and spiritual growth among the participants.

        “While searching for genuine Christianity in a country plagued by corruption and witchcraft, I discovered Derek Prince on YouTube. His straightforward, sincere teachings made a profound impact on me. After listening to his talks on demons and curses, I recognized issues in my life and experienced deliverance at a SOZO meeting. I now preach using Derek Prince’s material as a trustworthy foundation. His teachings remain relevant today, enriching my understanding of the Bible. Derek Prince was a dedicated and inspired teacher, and through his ministry, millions, including myself, are being blessed and saved.”
