Adeboye raises alarm over 2023, Nigeria
World wide General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God Enoch Adeboye, on Sunday expressed uncertainty about the future existence of Nigeria and elections in 2023.
Adeboye while wondering why politicians have started making preparations noted that no one should be certain about the future, stressing that the future belonged to God.
The Overseer made this disclosure during the church monthly first Sunday telecast monitored by our correspondent, on the topic ‘The Great Expectations’, confirming that expectations varies from individuals, and situations.
He said for a student the expectation would be to graduate, adding that for a pregnant woman it would be safe delivery.
According to Adeboye, it was unsafe for any one to say his ambition is to become president, when the individual is unsure about tomorrow or the existence of the country.
Adeboye said, “This is 2021 some people are already getting ready to kill themselves over 2023. They don’t even know whether there will be 2023, they don’t even know whether they will still be around. There is nobody here who can say for sure that he will still be around by tomorrow, nobody.it is God who determines who will still be around by 2023.”
“Someone said to me sir, who do you think will be president in 2023, I said president of where, he said president of Nigeria. How are you sure there will be Nigeria in 2023, how are you sure, can you swear. I pray there will be ooo, so you don’t misquote me but are you sure?” he added.
While commenting on his expectation, the preacher said is to see his members in great number in heaven, expressing confidence that they would be many that a section earmarked for them.
He said, “My greatest expectation is that I will see you in heaven. The members of Redeemed will occupy a particular section that the angel will say you tried. Without holiness there is no Heaven, which Heaven are you going to?”
Adeboye, speaking about consolation of those mourning, noted that it is easy for others to console the bereaved without feeling the impact.
The 79-year old preacher, stressed that having lost a family member, he has a clearer picture of what it is to mourn.
“It is easy to say you will see the person again, because I have tasted it. I have the experience,” he added.
Recall that the respected clergy, this year lost his second son Dare to death on the 4th May 2021.
