We Serve God
By His Spirit
At Destiny Encounter Church (DEC Global), we believe everyone carries a God-given seed of greatness. We are a family where you are accepted, valued, loved, and encouraged to become all that God has called you to be.
We are committed to nurturing the seed of greatness within you until your greatness emerges. Through practical, life-applicable messages, prayer, discipleship, and the teaching of God's Word, we help people discover themselves, understand their purpose, and turn their God-given destiny into reality.
At DEC, we believe in the manifest presence and power of God. His presence brings healing, deliverance, restoration, and freedom from every form of oppression.
We also make a Godly investment in people through discipleship, equipping them to become leaders, role models, and positive influences in their families, the Church, and society.
We Believe
- That the Father's biggest display of affection towards us is in the redemptive work of Christ.
- That the Word of God is the ultimate standard for doctrine.
- The gifts of the Spirit are at work in the life of the believer, so our services are an experience of the uninhibited flow of the Spirit through prayer, prophecies, and spiritual songs.
- That we are blessed because righteousness is credited to us through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Our Lead Pastor
Apostle Joice is the visionary founder and Lead Pastor of Destiny Encounter Church (DEC), a fast-growing global ministry with over 15,000 members and more than 30 campuses in Nigeria, Europe, Canada, and the USA. He is renowned for his dynamic preaching, teaching, and gospel songwriting.
