Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 47073, member: 636"] Zimbabwean religious leader Walter Magaya sparked widespread online discussion after photos showed him praying over crates of apples. The prophet announced Sunday would be designated as Fruit Sunday for his congregation. He took the apples to Prayer Mountain where he blessed them during special prayer sessions. Magaya told followers the fruit carried divine power for breakthrough and abundance. He described the event as part of a Season of Harvest for believers. The religious leader explained the apples were not ordinary fruit but sacred items blessed for spiritual purposes. Magaya encouraged church members to attend the service and bring guests to receive the free blessed apples. He promised the consecrated fruit would bring success across spiritual, financial and emotional areas of life. The prophet quoted biblical scripture to support his practice of blessing the fruit. He urged people not to attend the service alone but to bring others along. Social media users quickly shared the images of Magaya praying over the apple crates. Many people responded with humor and criticism about the religious practice. Some users called the event pure comedy entertainment for online audiences. Others accused the prophet of taking advantage of desperate followers seeking help. Critics labeled the apple blessing as a money-making scheme disguised as religious ministry. The viral photos generated thousands of comments and shares across different social media platforms. Reactions ranged from supportive messages to harsh criticism of the prophet's methods. The apple blessing controversy added to previous debates about Magaya's unconventional religious practices. [/QUOTE]
