The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has narrated how he escaped an untimely death that could taken his life due to the terrible road conditions in the country some seven years ago.
The clergyman gave the revelation during the annual Special Holy Ghost Service, themed “Joy Unspeakable.”
Baba Adeboye, as he is fondly called in Christian circles, said he was sharing the experience to express gratitude to God for His benevolence towards him and the ministry.
He recounted how he fell critically ill during one of the church’s annual “Let’s-Go-A-Fishing” evangelism programmes.
In his words, "Seven years ago, during this same programme, my body broke down completely due to the terrible road conditions.
“For the first time in my life, I spent Christmas Day in bed. The devil was certain he had finally got me. I collapsed in Ilesha, and to bring me back to the camp, we had to charter a helicopter. I was too weak to travel by road—if I had, I would not have made it.
“They clung to the helicopter, and in the process, one of the windows got torn. But by God’s grace, I managed to reach the camp.
“I had an assurance that if only I could get to the camp, I would recover. Seven years later, I am still here! I want you to thank God for sparing my life. Please, praise Him for me—give Him glory, honor, and adoration!” he recounted as the congregation responded with rapturous sounds of hallelujah to the clergyman's testimony.
