    This study investigates the role of Information Communication Technology in worship behaviour, spiritual connectivity and development pre and post Covid-19 Lockdown. The study examined the opinion of 568 Nigerian respondents, using a questionnaire. Whilst noting through results that most religious people had to depend on the use of several Information Communication Technology devices and available applications to engage in worship of their God, this new art of worship, during the Covid-19 lockdown, has made the art of worshipping their God not only more convenient but provides a new and interesting way of engaging in religious activities. Consequently, respondents strongly believe that Information Communication Technology has helped improve their spirituality and provided understanding that their God can be presented anywhere, as worshippers only need to be connected with their hearts. The result emphasized the irrelevance of hypocrisy and the need for creativity in the use of Information Communication Technology
