Contemporary scholarship has explained the remarkable growth of African Pentecostalism through prosperity theology, charismatic leadership, public religion, and the social consequences of economic insecurity. While these perspectives illuminate important dimensions of the movement, they do not adequately explain how persistent structural precarity is transformed into lived experiences of divine presence and enduring hope. Addressing this gap, this article examines the devotional life of the Zion Prayer Movement Outreach (ZPMOM) as an interpretive community through which social vulnerability is religiously reconfigured. Drawing on documentary analysis, publicly available sermons, testimonies, livestreamed worship, and digital devotional engagements, the study integrates insights from Precariat Theory and the lived religion perspective to investigate the relationship between structural insecurity and everyday religious practice. It argues that neo-mystical Christianity functions as an interpretive process through which uncertainty is refracted into religious presence rather than merely alleviated through expectations of miraculous intervention. Central to this analysis is the concept of the neo-mystical imagination, developed here as an analytical category that explains how prayer, prophecy, healing, testimony, communal worship, and digital mediation cultivate disciplined hope, interpretive agency, and moral resilience within contexts of persistent instability. The article contends that the significance of ZPMOM extends beyond institutional expansion or prosperity discourse. Instead, it demonstrates how contemporary African Christianity generates distinctive theological and devotional resources through which believers inhabit structural precarity while contributing fresh conceptual insights to the study of African Christianity and World Christianity.
