A remarkable story of faith, determination, and divine intervention has emerged from an international student in the United States. In a heartwarming testimony shared during a recent church service, a young Nigerian student, who recently graduated from college in the U.S., recounted how God opened doors for him to secure a full PhD scholarship at Brown University.
The student, whose roots are in Ondo State, Nigeria, had always dreamed big, despite warnings from professors about the difficulty of gaining admission into prestigious Ivy League schools. Undeterred, he applied to top-tier universities, including MIT, Cornell University, and Brown University. Despite a series of nerve-wracking interviews, he was left in limbo for months with no offers from any of the institutions.
Then, during a service at his church, Pastor Nath (PN) prophesied that “the doors of Ivy League universities are opened.” The student, who had been holding on to his faith, took that prophecy to heart. “I held on to that word since that time,” he shared, trusting that God’s promise would come to pass.
In an astonishing turn of events, he was later offered a full-ride scholarship to Brown University for a PhD program in Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, and Biochemistry (MCB). “Jesus has done it again,” he exclaimed, praising God for his extraordinary favor. “This boy from Ondo State, Nigeria, who knows nobody, God has had mercy on him.”
He further expressed his gratitude to Pastor Nath, requesting continued prayers as he embarks on this new chapter of his academic journey. “I covet your prayer as I embark on this journey, that the Lord goes with me,” he added, blessing the pastor for his powerful spiritual guidance.
The student’s testimony serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative power of faith and perseverance, and the belief that with God, no dream is too big to achieve.
