Nigerian gospel singer, Nathaniel Bassey recently shared a heartfelt testimony about his wife Sarah’s struggles with miscarriages during his ongoing “Hallelujah Challenge”. He revealed that she suffered five miscarriages, including an ectopic pregnancy, while he was leading the worship sessions.
Despite the challenges, Bassey emphasized the importance of trusting God and encouraged believers to remain steadfast in their faith. The gospel singer recounted how he would often leave his wife’s hospital bedside to lead worship online, only to return and receive praise from nurses who had no idea what he was going through.
“As men of God and ministers, we have heard a lot of stories. People come to me and say, ‘Pastor Nathaniel, you don’t understand’.
My wife will have to forgive me. Do you know there were times during the Hallelujah Challenge when we had a miscarriage, and nobody knew? I would still come online to praise and dance. A few years ago, she was in the hospital with an ectopic pregnancy.
I would leave, lead praise and worship online, then return to the hospital, and the nurses attending to her would tell me, ‘It was powerful tonight.’ Not one, not two, not three or four pregnancies, but five,” he recalls.
This experience has given him a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by others and strengthened his faith.
The couple has been married since 2013. Nathaniel shared this testimony during the 25-day “Hallelujah Challenge”, which began on October 7 and will run until October 31. The Hallelujah Challenge is a global online worship event featuring praise, prayer, and fasting, drawing thousands of believers worldwide.
