PASTOR GABRIEL ASOR
FAMILY AND HISTORY Gabriel Akajiaku Asor popularly known as “Pastor Gabriel Asor” was born on September 22, 1981 in the family of the late Eze A.U Asor his royal highness of Assa/Obile autonomous community. His mother is Cecelia Asor. He is the last child of the family married to Ellah Asor. They have one male child Joshua Asor. Pastor Gabriel Asor was brought up in a devoted Christian family.

ABOUT PASTOR GABRIEL ASOR MINISTRY During his youth, Pastor Gabriel Asor had a dream one day where he saw a bush burning and saw many people being thrown inside a fire. Through what he saw in the dream, he started having a burden in his heart to save souls for God. He was also confirmed by other ministers of God that he had a ministry indeed and was called by God. Pastor Gabriel Asor started preaching when he was a youth. He attended ‘Secondary Commercial School’ in Assa, Imo State, Nigeria. Back in the days he joined ‘Christian Pentecostal Mission Church’ (CPM) in the village. From there he relocated to join his older brother in Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria where he continued to worship in ‘Christian Pentecostal Mission’ (CPM). From there, he joined Overcomers Christian Mission to worship there where he joined the prayer force as well. Thereafter, he went to Port Harcourt to assist a pastor, there he became appointed to be the church prayer force leader.

When the pastor he was assisting travelled abroad, Pastor Gabriel Asor opened a Christian fellowship in Port Harcourt with the name ‘United Family of Christ’ in mind for a ministry but not registered by then. In Port Harcourt there was a great turnout and God was showing Himself powerful in such a way that when Pastor Gabriel Asor decided to travel to South Africa, the brethren pleaded with him to stay. When he came to South Africa he pastored the Pietermaritzburg Overcomers branch, before he came to pastor in Overcomers he knew that he had a ministry. When it was time for the ministry to begin, Pastor Gabriel Asor requested for the Overcomers leader at that time, to bring another pastor to take over from him, which they did and he left.

Less than a year after leaving Overcomers Christian Mission he started a ‘Christian Fellowship’ in his house in the living room which he used to hold once a week for the brethren, consisting of sharing of the word, personal prophecies and prayers. From there he got a small place that contained about 50(fifty) people because he believed in starting small as the Bible says in Zachariah 4 v 10 “Do not despise the days of small beginnings”. The space was no longer convenient for the church due to the overflow of crowd, hence he moved to a new place which was bigger.

The ministry is called ‘Resurrection Life Assembly’ which believes in ‘Heaven on Earth’. It is based in Pinetown, Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa. The main aim of the ministry is to save souls for a major harvest in the Kingdom of God. The ministry has all races and nationalities coming together as one family in Christ. The projects that the ministry has undertaken to-date are: giving out of scholarships on all levels, giving out food parcels, money and clothing to the old age homes and orphanages surrounding Pinetown and Durban areas, supporting people in their monthly rental payment, mobilising people from various areas transport wise, feeding the poor by means of groceries and distributing of clothing. The vision for the ministry is in the scripture, James 1 v 27 “What God the Father considers to be pure religion and genuine religion is this; to take care of orphans and widows in their suffering and to keep oneself from being corrupted by the world” (Good News Version) as well as the scripture John 14 v 1 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms, if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place I am going” (New International Version, N.I.V.) Resurrection Life Assembly aims for humankind to make it to heaven on the last day just as our master Jesus Christ cries out, intercedes for our souls to be saved, in fact, for all souls to be saved, day and night. The Word of God makes us to understand that Hell was created for Lucifer and his demons, and not for human beings, hence God never rejoices at the souls that perish, die and go to Hell fire!

Resurrection Life Assembly has an outreach called ‘Heaven on Earth’ which goes out and helps the less privileged in various ways, making people to enjoy life on earth as it is in heaven. As the Word of God says in Matthew 6 v 10 “Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven” (King James Version).

Pastor Gabriel Asor is a blessed man of God who flows mightily in prophecy, healing, teaching, preaching and deliverance through the word by the grace of God. He believes that ‘Your yesterday can never be better than your today and your today will not be better than your tomorrow’. He believes that every day is not only a plus to your life but also for increase and multiplication as the word of God says in the book of Acts of Apostles 6 v 7, “And the Word of God increased and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly, and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.” (King James Version)
