The October 2025 edition of the Hallelujah Challenge, led by gospel minister Nathaniel Bassey, recorded a viewership exceeding 1.2 million across major online platforms on Day 15 of the devotional livestream.
Originating as a midnight Instagram Live session in 2017, the Hallelujah Challenge has evolved into a global digital worship experience, broadcast via YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.
Day 15’s milestone is particularly notable given the repeated nightly sessions and the growing momentum of the movement. According to reports, midnight Nigerian time (typically 11:59 p.m.) remains the set time for mass worship and prayer.
Bassey described the surge in participation as a “divine move” and emphasized that the event remains rooted in heartfelt worship rather than mere digital metrics. “What began as a simple act of obedience … has turned into a global altar of worship,” he said.

Observers and media outlets have noted that the Hallelujah Challenge’s success highlights the growing power of faith‑based digital gatherings in Nigeria and beyond.
One analyst described it as “one of the world’s largest online Christian gatherings.”
As the October session continues, participants worldwide remain engaged and expectant of testimonies of breakthrough, healing and divine encounters—many of which are already being shared on social media.
