Gospel Singer Victor Thompson Reveals How He Waited Five Years For A Child After Bishop’s Shocking Prophecy

Nigerian gospel singer Victor Thompson has shared the emotional experience he and his wife went through while waiting five years to have a child after getting married, revealing that a bishop he greatly respected once told him that his wife would never become pregnant.

The singer made the revelation during a recent ministration, where he recounted how the statement affected him and why he chose not to disclose it to his wife.

According to Thompson, the remark came from a spiritual figure he admired and whose teachings he valued, making the experience particularly painful.

He recalled, “Me and my wife waited for our baby for five years after marriage. Someone I regard so much, that I feed from spiritually, said to me, ‘Do you know your wife cannot get pregnant?’”

The gospel singer explained that he kept the statement to himself because he feared it would cause his wife emotional distress.

“A bishop said that to me. I couldn’t tell my wife because it would break her so much. You know, when you believe the word that comes out of this person’s mouth, then the person says that to you. I kept it to myself,” he added.

Thompson further disclosed that after four years of waiting without a child, his wife began suggesting that they consider In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) as an option.

However, he continued encouraging her to remain hopeful and trust God despite the uncertainty surrounding their situation.

He recalled that in December 2024, the couple eventually agreed to proceed with the fertility treatment in January. On January 2, they visited a clinic, underwent the necessary tests and made the required payments.

However, after returning home, they waited for his wife’s next menstrual period, but it did not come because she had become pregnant.

Following the unexpected development, the couple reportedly returned to the clinic and requested a refund for the money they had paid for the procedure.

Reflecting on their journey, Thompson expressed gratitude for the outcome, saying he believes the pregnancy happened at the right time despite the years of waiting and uncertainty.

According to Bush Radio Academy, the singer’s testimony has highlighted the emotional challenges he and his wife experienced before eventually receiving the news they had hoped for.
