Gospel minister Dunsin Oyekan is once again reminding the world of the power of God’s presence not just on stage, but in life’s most painful valleys.
Today, Dunsin opened up on Instagram about his personal journey, six years after the heartbreaking loss of his beloved wife. But instead of sorrow, his reflection was filled with tears of joy and deep gratitude.
“Most people wondered how I survived,” he wrote. “I didn’t numb the pain, I channeled it. I found closure in the Presence of God, understood from His perspective, accepted His sovereignty… and found joy again.”
What a powerful testimony. In a world where loss often leads to bitterness or withdrawal, Dunsin chose worship over weeping, and purpose over pain.
His words are not just poetic, they are a blueprint for healing through the Holy Spirit. Instead of running from the ache, he ran to the altar. In the presence of the One who gives and takes away, Dunsin found not just comfort, but clarity.
For many who have followed his ministry, it’s clear that his songs carry the weight of experience lyrics soaked in tears, trials, and trust. Perhaps that’s why when he sings “God is Good”, it doesn’t feel like a cliché. It feels like a war cry, a testimony, a victory chant.
To every believer navigating pain, Dunsin’s story is a reminder:
Yes, God is still good, even when life feels anything but.
Yes, there’s healing in His presence.
And yes, joy can rise from the ashes.
As Dunsin continues to minister across the world, his life remains a message not just in melody, but in how he has lived out his faith through the fire.
May we all find the strength to say like him: “I found joy again.”
