Lovy Longomba pens heartfelt message to wife

Renowned preacher and spiritual leader Prophet Lovy Elias took to social media to celebrate his wife Maggy’s birthday with a moving message that has touched many hearts online.

In the Instagram post shared on Monday, Prophet Lovy expressed deep admiration and gratitude for his wife, describing her as an “extraordinary” woman whose love and strength have been pivotal in his personal and spiritual journey.

Quoting Proverbs 18:22 — “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord” — Prophet Lovy referred to his wife as his “good thing” and “favor.”

The founder of Revelation Church LA did not hold back in showering praise on Maggy, calling her his “answered prayer,” “greatest support,” and “the reason I’ve stood through so many storms.” He added that her love has been his refuge, her strength his anchor, and her presence a source of peace.

“Happy Birthday to my beautiful, extraordinary wife @maggykelias. No one on this earth deserves to be celebrated more than you,” he wrote. “You are not only a magnificent gift to me, but also to our children, to the church, and to the world.”

He ended the tribute with a blessing: “May this birthday bring you all the joy, beauty, and love that you so freely give to others. Happy Birthday, my love, my forever.”

Prophet Lovy, who has amassed a global following through his prophetic teachings and online ministry, often speaks openly about the role of faith and family in his life. His birthday message to Maggy offered a glimpse into the couple’s bond and enduring partnership.

Before he became known as Prophet Lovy Elias, the charismatic spiritual leader and founder of Revelation Church of Jesus Christ in Los Angeles, he was a celebrated musician performing on some of East Africa’s biggest stages.

Born Lovy Longomba, the Kenyan-born artist was one-half of the iconic music duo The Longombas, alongside his late brother Christian. The group rose to fame in the early 2000s with chart-topping hits like Vuta Pumz, Shika More, and Queen. Their unique sound, a fusion of Afro-pop and R&B, not only dominated Kenyan airwaves but also left an indelible mark on East Africa’s music landscape.

Coming from a musical dynasty, his father, Lovy Longomba Sr., was a member of Congo’s legendary band Viva La Musica, and his grandfather, Vicky Longomba, was a founding member of TPOK Jazz, Music was in Lovy’s blood. But while fame and success came early, Lovy’s heart was being drawn elsewhere.

After relocating to the United States, Lovy began to step back from the music scene. In what many describe as a divine calling, he traded the stage for the pulpit, dedicating himself fully to ministry. This transition, while surprising to fans, marked the beginning of his journey as a prophet and teacher of the gospel.
