The Essence crooner took to his Instagram story on Thursday, 3 July 2025, to share a brief but powerful message about the impact of his latest spiritual awakening. According to him, he asked God to remove all forms of evil from his life — and believes the process has already begun.

“Told God \[to] take everything evil out of my life and I’ve been seeing signs! Work with God!” Wizkid posted, without elaborating further.

While the statement was short, its message resonated deeply with fans across social media, sparking widespread reactions and speculation. For many, it marked a new chapter in the artist’s personal journey — a rare, vulnerable moment from someone often seen as a symbol of fame and material success.

The post was interpreted by some as a spiritual cleansing, possibly signalling a turning point in both his personal life and music. Known for his charisma, luxury lifestyle and international acclaim, Wizkid is not typically one to share openly about matters of faith or inner struggles. That made this post all the more significant.

A Lagos-based fan commented online, “This just shows that even the biggest stars are human too. We all need God.”

The 34-year-old star, who won a Grammy for his role in Brown Skin Girl with Beyoncé and has headlined shows across continents, is among Nigeria’s most successful global music exports. His recent performances in Paris and New York were sell-outs, yet it is this brief spiritual post that has captured the attention of millions.

A close associate of the singer, who asked not to be named, told a local outlet, “He’s been more inward-looking lately. He’s focusing on his family, his music, and apparently, now more on his spirituality too.”

This is not the first time Wizkid has shown a more introspective side. In past interviews, he has occasionally alluded to his desire to leave a positive legacy, both as a father and an African icon. However, Thursday’s post is perhaps his most direct spiritual message to date.

“Work with God” was the phrase that concluded his message, and it has quickly gained traction online, turning into a trending hashtag across X and Instagram. Fans have been reposting the story, pairing it with prayers, spiritual quotes, and personal reflections.

One follower posted, “#WorkWithGod – If Wizkid can do it, what’s stopping you?”

It remains unclear whether this revelation will influence Wizkid’s upcoming music projects. His last album, *More Love, Less Ego*, explored themes of growth, reflection and emotional vulnerability. Fans are now wondering if this new chapter will be marked by even deeper content or a thematic shift towards faith.

A gospel artist in Abuja remarked, “If Wizkid ever drops a song with spiritual lyrics, it’ll change the game. This post already shows how powerful influence can be when it aligns with faith.”

As Wizkid shares spiritual journey moments publicly, many see this as a bold and positive example for young people navigating fame, pressure and uncertainty.

Though he didn’t elaborate on what the “signs” were, the message was clear: something is shifting in his world, and he attributes it to a divine connection. Whether fans see this as a phase or a genuine transformation, one thing is certain — the world is watching.
