In an unexpected turn of events, billionaire tech mogul and X CEO, Elon Musk, has been named the 2024 "Number 1 Global Partner" for Rhapsody of Realities, a daily devotional authored by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, the General Overseer of Christ Embassy (Believers' LoveWorld). The announcement, made by Christ Embassy, credits Musk’s remarkable contribution to the global distribution of the devotional as part of its mission to spread the Gospel.
The news, which broke on November 16, has stirred excitement, skepticism, and a flurry of reactions on social media platforms in Nigeria and beyond.
Christ Embassy Praises Elon Musk
In their announcement, Christ Embassy expressed gratitude for Musk’s efforts, praising him for his exceptional partnership in "reaching the nations with the word of Christ." The devotional, widely recognized as one of the most translated publications globally, has been central to the ministry’s evangelical work. Musk’s contributions were highlighted as an example of how influential figures can drive Kingdom-focused initiatives.
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, a renowned global Christian leader, has spearheaded efforts to make Rhapsody of Realities accessible in over 5,000 languages. Musk’s involvement, particularly as someone outside the traditional faith community, has been hailed as groundbreaking.
Social Media Reactions
The declaration sparked mixed reactions across platforms like X (formerly Twitter), with the hashtag #RhapsodyOfRealities trending in Nigeria. Here’s a glimpse of the diverse sentiments:

- @BMdleleni11767: "Hallelujah! The Gospel of our Lord Jesus is prevailing in all nations. Thank you, Sir Elon Musk, for loving the Lord Jesus and supporting this ministry."
Skepticism
- @Landlordoflagos: "I’m just wondering why you guys have to post an in-house thing sha."
- @Starrynitesxoxo: "If this is true, it’s great to see this partnership, but… can we confirm this is the actual Elon Musk?"
Humor and Sarcasm
- @KDTrader1999: "You mean Brother Elon Musk, the black version?"

A Polarizing Partnership
The recognition of Musk by Christ Embassy has drawn attention to the intersection of faith and global influence. Some see it as evidence of Musk’s evolving persona beyond technology and innovation. Others have raised questions about the authenticity of the claims, with posts speculating whether the real Elon Musk is involved or if this is a mix-up involving someone using his name.
