 But you're back right now and Jonathan Comet was sharing about how Nigerians have embraced the word of God. And before that, just introduce yourself again and again with Jonathan Comet. Where do you come from? You know guys, I just hear you mean me at your Nigerians when I came to the word of God. Why? Why are you bringing up such a big name here? My name is Jonathan Comet with the KKOME Jonathan. I'm an Igbo boy from Nigeria. That's the East. I'm one sold out to God. I'm into music. I spread the word of God by music. So you can basically say I'm an evangelist. I go around spreading the word of God, his love, his wisdom and his truth. And by God's mercy, I listen to him and give breath to him and help breath forth his song to his people. My desire is to unite true worshipers so that we are able beyond tribe, beyond country, beyond color, so that we are able to raise the right fragrance of worship who are one true God who reigns forever. So I am a sold out savan to God and the office God has placed me in the ministry. What an intro. What an intro. You can clearly tell that Nigerians have embraced the word of God. You know, that time people didn't get you clearly. I want you to just repeat that because it's really powerful. When you fade away, God knows calm embraces you and they will see more of God in you rather than seeing you. Yes. Okay, so basically it's this. I came to understand really why there has to be gross darkness. Because once darkness is gross, it means it's very thick. Light is seen, even the tiniest light is seen. So for me, from my own experience, I have come to a place where everything wasn't working. And then I had to move from just calling God, from just calling saying I know God with being with him, you understand? So being with God has its precautions, you understand? So when you're with God, when you come out, it's evidence. When Moses came out, people knew he was with God. So I'm saying it's a feeling that it's a reflection or like I say, it's a fragrance as available to all who spend time with him. So for Nigerians, we have gone through everything, you understand? And the only one who we have realized can bring us out of whatever challenge, whatever mountain is Yeshua, God. And that's why Nigerians are the way we are. To never say mambu ni mengi Nigeria. There's a lot going on in Nigeria. But anyway, embracing God, there's always that difference. You can clearly see someone who spends time with God. Someone who just knows God. Like I know God. You're like, see, I know. Then I know this God. There's no and no way. Anyway, let's talk about your music. Because your sound is so different from loving it. That song that just fed it all, it's peace. The one official now is peace. It's a song that came at every song I have by God's message brought. Oh, it's part of my experience. I don't write, because I want to write a song. I don't do songs. It's a superstar. I write reflecting my testimony about God. Peace was in the three years when I was on the streets. I had nothing. Yes, I have slept under the bridge. I have had people who called me nuts. This guy is crazy. How can you say you want to do music? I said, I'm not doing music. I want to worship God full time. I don't understand. I'm one who is family had. See, when God calls me, he tests me. I didn't think that when you walk with God, it's going to be rosy. It's not rosy. So in that period, I had to draw close to God. And for some reason, he also brings peace. Having food also brings peace. He shows you different dimensions of God. So for me, that's when I decide to, oh God, you know what? If I let my eyes see the way I see, I will fall into depression. Many things that would not even help me grow. And then the world is watching you. Even you, the world is watching you. Everybody is watching. What's she saying? The only way they know what you're saying is what you're living out. So for me, peace was the only way to explain to people that see, I am who I am today because I have chosen to see the way God sees, hear the way God hears and think the way God hears. So that's for peace. Whether you have it or not. Yes. Peace is still there. Because Bible says in season and out of season, Yes. Amazing. And of course, there's a time before you, I want you to take us that musical journey from you being here now to becoming, to starting your musical journey. Yes, take us through that journey. Because you have shared, there's a point you are in the street. At what point did you start music? So this is my 25th year in music. 15. 25. 25. 25. All right. I began music as a drummer in a church at the age of 7. I went into professional music that's playing the drums at the age of 10. At that period, I was also in school with my family, have a twin brother and then we're all in the choir. We grew up in the choir. Yes. And then my family had seen me as this is the smart one. So you know how your family begins to paint your future for you, which was good because I said doing all that, I said going to school and then in between, I just felt the need. That's the separation God did through my mom. For some reason, it was I she made her handbag. She's going for prayer and fasting is Jonathan. She's going for this meeting, Jonathan. And I'm like, where's twins? Take my twin brother. See him there? He's going to leave me, you carry. Every time I will go to the church, I see people doing haka haka. I'm like, haki. I'll go home and sleep. But she knew what she was doing because I have a testament. There was a period in my life when the hospital had declared me dead. I was 10 years old and my nani was feeding me. And then in Nigeria we have stock fish. This is dry fish. So the nani did not see the bone and then gave it to me. I swallowed it and then it hooked. They had to feed me because I am bad with food. I hardly eat. So they have to force me to eat. So while I was swallowing, eba is like your own ugali. You understand? So I swallowed it and it stuck here. I was choking and then it took me to the hospital. Mum went for prayers, came back and found that they had closed me with a cloth. And then for some reason she says no, not under her watch. She closed the door behind her, came, removed her cloth and laid on top of me and was springing to my mouth. She did it for 30 minutes, she stood up, nothing happened. Came back again. And at the 70 minutes I cuffed out the blood, cuffed out the bone and had a bit of flesh in it. That's when my mum tells me, Jonathan, oh yeah, church, I say I'm going. Where? We go, you understand? So my story has- God has guided me with a testimony where I can't go anywhere. You can't see me doing sequela. To shock, I've never been to a club before. Yes, at some point I lived and worked in the UK and then while things were being very rosy, God told me come back to Africa. So I came back because there's a reason why everyone of us exists. There's a mission on your head. So I came back and then the music began falling. Then God tells me, I want you to sing for me because then I was more of a drummer and I started playing, I started singing and I used to sing the bathroom like every one of us, you understand? And then God begins to do something weird with me. I'm sleeping, I'm hearing songs. I don't write songs. The songs you've been hearing, I never wrote them. I hear them and I record on my phone. That's why my phone is always full. I hear songs and I hear down to how the music should go, the instruments, the kind of parts I'm hearing. And people say it's impossible, it is possible because you see when you're betting God's exact sound, He gives you everything, the same way He gave Noah, how He wanted the ark to be, you understand? So that's how my songs have come and then it's not been easy because there are times when you don't have money because it's capital intensive, you understand? You don't have money so I have to wait. Let's compromise this, this DJ can call this, producer can take 5,000 shillings but the project is what 100k shillings. What do you do? I can't run ahead of God. If God gave the vision to me, I wait and He's been faithful. He's been faithful and for me I have been doing it whether they buy CD, they don't buy CD whether I make money but you see I have survived and the reason why I have survived and what I am today is because my mind has never been on I want the hits, I want to become a known artist. I just want to be sure that every offering I lay on the table in music is a sweet smelling servo in heaven. They recognize my worship. That's all my life has been about. I'm moving to Nigeria. You guys are speaking, but we have touched. Clearly you've been in 3 countries. I'm sure there are more. But from Nigeria, UK and South Africa. Oh South Africa, you've even added South Africa today. Yes I have. So it's actually Lagos, South Africa, Kenya and then God tells me I want you to be there's work for you in Kenya. So now I'm more in Kenya, Nigeria, Kenya and Nigeria. This is work in Kenya. And South Africa once in a while. Do you mind mentioning the kind of work you're doing here in Kenya? It's just worship. I'm just here when I'm not in the studio and praying. You're praying. When I'm not praying, I'm talking to young people. I'm also helping people understand what worship is. So here is home for me basically. But when I need to work, I go back home because my team is back in Nigeria. But also he has told me he's also raising voices for me here in Kenya the music is not meant to be known by tribe. It's not meant to be known by country. There's seeds in Kenya. Kenya is a land of, is a fertile land. So that's one of the things we're building. So I'm not rushing anyone into that space. So when he tells me, I need to go back to Nigeria to record this. I go, the record come. If he wants us to do something here, we'll do something here. So I'm not saying the guys in Nigeria are better or the guys in Kenya are better. But you see, I only move by the leading of the Lord. The leading of God, yes. You've done music, cre music I must say. And you let's test some. Hey, what is it about? Because I saw the dancing like this. I was like, I just want to finish this interview and try out that dance. You tried the dance. Or you don't want to try it on screen. So you don't fall your hand. No, no, no, not on screen. Behind the scenes. I feel you, I understand. So that the CV is not stained. So Ekele simply means praise, thanksgiving. It means gratitude. It's an Igbo words from my tribe. I'm Igbo, you understand. Ekele means praise. And it's basically this. God tells me, raise me a sound of thanksgiving. Now, thanksgiving, the normal mind will believe that okay, for all he has done, yes. But you see, there are certain mountains you've been waiting for since January to shift. Sometimes it's a dance. It's a worship that shifts that mountain. It's not the tongues. It's not the fast. I'm not saying it's not effective. But you see, there's a certain kind of dance and worship you give God, regardless of the pain, regardless of whatever it is. It's just you showing God, I will praise you. Whether it works, whether it does not work. The fact that I can stand, I am breathing, it's you. So sometimes that mountain needs your dance, needs your praise to shift. It happened when you were walking around the world of Jericho. So that's what I'm saying here. So the Ekele is a victory declaration. It's a sound of victory. It's a sound of praise. It's a sound of gratitude. It's a sound of faiths. So that's what the song is. It says Ekele dinanumu mo'i means that there's praise on my lips. Chimu imila. My God, you've done so well. Narekele narotitu means take all the glory, take all the praise. Basically it's praise from the beginning to the end. So that's what Ekele is about. Powerful, powerful. Guys, you're going to see that video and even hear the birds on it. You are going to love, love, love this song. Personal interdance will go beyond the scenes. But anyway, thank you so so much for coming. We bless God. We give God all the glory. Please come back again. Definitely. When you go back to Nigeria or South Africa or U.K. or wherever continue me. Please come back. I will. Don't forget JC Sackles. He's home. JC Sackles is home. I'll come back again. I will come back again. How can you guys support you, especially those that are watching today? Kenyans, guys. It's free of charge to subscribe.
