General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye has lamented the pathetic state of the country, saying it is tantamount to being in a war.
Making this disclosure at the Church’s monthly thanksgiving service, on October 2nd, 2022, the Clergyman while delivering a sermon titled, ‘Perfect peace in the land’, from II Chronicles 7: 13-14, said peace is the absence of war, the absence of storm, and added that perfect peace refers to one which is permanent.
The insecurity situation bedeviling the nation, Adeboye said, has seen Traditional Rulers and their stools defied, and not accorded respect, adding that currently they are being arbitrarily kidnapped.
He said, “In the olden days, except you are one of the special people, they don’t allow the king’s dress to touch you.
“Now kidnappers can go to the Palace to kidnap the king. We are in a war situation, let’s no one deceive you.”
While Prophesying the end in sight, Adeboye, stressed that God would bring an ultimate end, “What kings, soldiers can’t do, the Almighty God will do for you,” he added.
Adeboye also urged the people to cease criticising their leaders, maintaining that residents should instead pray for them.
He lamented that people have opted for condemnation instead of seeking solutions through intercession. The General Overseer said, “Pray for the rulers, we have spent so much time criticising them. You should pray for them. I’m praying for them, I pray you will join me to pray.”
