COVID-19 lockdown has helped in reuniting many broken homes says Adeboye
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, said the COVID-19 lockdown has helped in many ways especially in reuniting broken homes, assuring that many will thank God after the present lockdown.
Adeboye who said this on Sunday May 24 during his preaching online explained how one of his children in faith who always had issues with his wife and children but has since made up with them during this lockdown.
He explained that there are certain situations in life that the believer cannot but go through citing the instance of the three Hebrew children who passed through fire but came out unhurt.
The Cleric who was preaching on the topic “Seven Ways to Deal With a Mountain” assured that all those who are genuinely his children in faith will come out of the present pandemic unhurt adding however that for any one to surmount the challenges of life which he described as mountains, such person must put absolute trust in God.
Adeboye said there is need to put absolute trust in God explaining that God knows the end from the beginning, adding that there is no problem or issue that happens to us that takes God unwares.
The RCCG General Overseer said further that the believers should appropriate the mercy of God when there are troubling issues and situations.
According to him it is the mercy of God that has kept us alive. ‘Left for the devil he does not want us to see the next day. But God who created us watches over us day and night. He does not sleep nor slumber.’
He also advised that there is a need to believe the prophet of God. Quoting Bible passages to butress his submission, he said God uses his prophet to bring solutions to issues of life. He cited the example of Isaiah who prophesied about the coming Messiah and who had also said by His stripe we were healed.
While emphasising that he is not a prophet, he said, ‘I told you at the beginning of the year that the world will behave like a convulsive child. And that is what we are experiencing now. But I can assure you that all will be well. All those who are my genuine children will come out unhurt in this pandemic.’
