The Divine Calling: An In-Depth Biography of Prophet Arthur Hagin (Buranda)
Written By: Oudney Patsika, the Chief Editor at Sona Headlines & Marketing Officer at Sona Solar Zimbabwe
The life of Prophet Arthur Hagin, widely known as Prophet Buranda, is a powerful testimony of spiritual transformation. Once a professional chef, he abandoned a lucrative career to honor a life-altering covenant with God. This biography chronicles his journey, leading to the founding of The Signs and Wonders Church (Alive in Christ Church) and his rise as a respected spiritual figure in Zimbabwe.
The Life-Changing Covenant: A Miraculous Turning Point
Prophet Buranda’s ministry was founded on an undeniable act of faith during a moment of profound personal despair. Faced with the severe, life-threatening illness of his father, Prophet Arthur Hagin made a fervent, unreserved vow to God: if God would miraculously intervene and restore his father's health, he would abandon his secular career and dedicate his entire life exclusively to divine ministry. The subsequent miraculous recovery of his father solidified the covenant, irrevocably setting his life's direction.
Answering the Call: From Chef to Full-Time Minister
His spiritual development was rigorously shaped during his time at ZAOGA FIF, where he cultivated discipline in extended prayer and fasting. He details his annual 10-day fasts at a sacred mountain as an "emotional rollercoaster." Crucially, he learned the value of service, recalling that he would often spend mornings cleaning toilets before dedicating hours to prayer. His deep conviction remains: "Prayer is the best bank one can invest in."
Driven by his calling, Prophet Buranda made the challenging decision to leave his successful culinary career behind. This profound sacrifice underscored his total dedication to the divine mandate. His journey began with the humblest of resources, initially transforming his aunt's house into the sacred space for his first prayer services.
The Signs and Wonders Church: Ministry and Core Teachings
The initial gatherings at his aunt's house quickly drew a growing number of followers, attracted to his fervent faith. This organic expansion led to the formal establishment of The Signs and Wonders Church, also known as Alive in Christ Church. The ministry has grown exponentially, impacting lives across Zimbabwe and beyond.
At the core of his ministry lie two unshakable pillars: the transformative power of the Bible and the vital importance of consistent prayer. He teaches that scripture is the essential guide for believers and that prayer is the direct communication through which individuals find strength and divine direction. He firmly believes, "Your future is counting on the prayers you are investing today."
